Overview

Pocketown is an unofficial Android game inspired by the renowned Pokemon series, particularly reminiscent of the Sun and Moon iterations. This engaging game draws players into a world of creature capture and combat against other characters, akin to the console versions of Pokemon.

Objective

The game's primary goal is to elevate the player to the status of the top trainer. This can be achieved by capturing new creatures and battling against other characters. The combat mechanism closely mirrors that of the original Pokemon games, allowing players to strategize and utilize different attacks with their Pokemon characters. The option to switch between any of the five Pokemon in reserve enables players to select the most beneficial skills for each battle.

Capturing Pokemon

When encountered with wild Pokemon, players have the opportunity to capture these creatures using a Pokeball. However, capturing a Pokemon is not as straightforward as it may seem. The player must carefully decrease the Pokemon's health without eliminating them, striking a delicate balance.

Gameplay

The game's development follows the standards of an Asian MMO, incorporating numerous daily events and rewards for completing trials or performing consistent tasks over several days. This design fosters engagement and encourages players to continuously return to the game.

Interaction with Other Players

Pocketown's servers allow for active interaction with other players. These players can be seen wandering the game map, providing opportunities for trading, battling, and forming guilds. This feature adds a social dimension to the game, increasing its appeal and replayability.

Pokemon Selection

The game offers a diverse cast of creatures to capture and train, ranging from first-generation Pokemon to newer additions and the coveted legendary Pokemon. The latter are significantly more challenging to capture, adding an extra layer of difficulty and excitement to the game.

Visuals and Experience

Despite being an unofficial product, Pocketown stands out with its impressive 3D visuals. Coupled with its gameplay, which closely mirrors the well-loved Pokemon series, it provides one of the best Pokemon-like experiences available for Android.

  • Opportunities for interaction with other players.

  • Diverse selection of Pokemon to capture and train.

Cons

  • Unofficial product, not affiliated with the Pokemon franchise.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • GET_ACCOUNTS: Allows access to the list of accounts in the Accounts Service.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • BATTERY_STATS: Allows an application to collect battery statistics
  • BLUETOOTH: Allows applications to connect to paired bluetooth devices.
  • GET_TASKS: This constant was deprecated in API level 21. No longer enforced.
  • INSTALL_SHORTCUT: Allows an application to install a shortcut in Launcher.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • MOUNT_UNMOUNT_FILESYSTEMS: Allows mounting and unmounting file systems for removable storage.
  • READ_LOGS: Allows an application to read the low-level system log files.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • REORDER_TASKS: Allows an application to change the Z-order of tasks.
  • SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW: Allows an app to create windows using the type TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT, shown on top of all other apps. Very few apps should use this permission; these windows are intended for system-level interaction with the user.
  • UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT: This permission is no longer supported.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
  • WRITE_SETTINGS: Allows an application to read or write the system settings.
