Fun, sadly useless
I liked the touch of the Pokémon’s sprites moving slightly on the screen as you tilt your phone, and I like that all the sprites are 2D pixel art and not the 3D models, which is why it was such a shame to me when I very quickly discovered that the information is just wrong, I started with bulbasaur and noticed after a few seconds that it was missing its poison type, then I checked some more and 10 of the 10 Pokémon I checked should have been duel types, but were missing the type, and I noticed that their heights and weights are all wrong too, which seems like a niche detail but it’s important that I can trust that information for moves like heat crash, which are more powerful the heavier the user is. TL;DR I like the style choices, it’s just a shame that I can’t actually use it if it’s not the right information but I didn’t want to rate it too harshly because there aren’t many reviews and I hope that this will continue to be developed into something much more reliable. EDIT: I’ve discovered that the issue with height and weight is that they use the weight in kilograms but labelled as pounds (Tepig should be 55.5kg but is listed as 555lbs) and the same is true for height, Pokémon are listed as 3x larger because they used the number for metres but the units are in feet.
