I can only open settings and nothing there is helpful. But the site works just fine and is great help. ### 3/5 — Needs to be updated *2025-07-30, version 6.0.7* App won’t load. ### 1/5 — Will not open or load *2025-06-16, version 6.0.7* Will not open ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-06-07, version 6.0.7* It’s stuck on the loading screen, I can’t search, I can’t load random article, it’s just broken. Do not get. ### 1/5 — Trash *2025-05-26, version 6.0.7* Wont even load up ### 1/5 — Completely broken. Like a Rampardos used Head Smash on a window. Wow, what a ripoff of 4 GB. *2025-05-10, version 6.0.7* The only thing this garbage app has to do with Pokemon is it looks like a zoomed-in picture of Reshiram. If you don’t get the joke, it’s the classic white screen. DON’T EVEN BOTHER unless you want to see the anatomy of the Vast White Pokemon. (Why oh why do my reviews keep disappearing???) ### 1/5 — Nothing loads? *2025-04-23, version 6.0.7* It doesn’t even work. The loading screen goes on forever. ### 1/5 — Does Not Work *2025-04-06, version 6.0.7* Nothing on the app will load ### 1/5 — Huge download *2025-04-03, version 6.0.7* What in the …. ### 4/5 — Update with s&v dlc *2025-03-27, version 6.0.7* That apps great but if you wanna find stuff for the dlc for you can’t also make the search better please ### 1/5 — Idk… *2025-03-25, version 6.0.7* It’s not loading for me, not even the slightest. The wiki is also extremely laggy but at least I can actually do something on there cry emoji cry emoji, I js downloaded it and it’s not even loading in, is there a issue or a problem? Also I freed up storage and I have great wifi and most of my apps are working just not this app ### 3/5 — Out of date *2025-03-16, version 6.0.7* It is missing many things, including most information on Pokémon UNITE, and the S/V DLC. ### 1/5 — Will not load anything *2025-03-12, version 6.0.7* Waited for app to download and nothing was working or loading, thought it might have been a wifi issue but I guess not. I’ll continue to use their website until this gets fixed because Bulbapedia is an excellent resource nonetheless. I look forward to using the app when its fixed. ### 3/5 — good app, multiple years outdated *2025-03-10, version 6.0.7* missing information on most things after legends arceus ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Search error *2025-10-20, version 6.0.7* Bulbapedia, I'm so sad. You've been my Pokemon companion for years! But I have to leave this review because your search hasn't been working for some time. When I type a pokemon's name into the search bar, no pokemon come up at all. I appreciate the effort it takes to make and maintain an app, and hope to be able to use you again soon! I'll miss you during my ZA playthrough. ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2025-10-04, version 6.0.7* I loved Bulbapedia and used it a lot when playing Fired and Leafgreen. I tried using it recently for the encounter tables to use during a nuzlocke, but it wouldn’t load. It only says that there is nothing to load and to add some Zim files first. Please fix this as the app is now useless. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load anything *2025-09-28, version 6.0.7* Downloaded the app so I wouldn’t have to go the internet. But the app doesn’t load anything. It just spins on the home page and can’t do anything else in the app ### 1/5 — Completely broken. Like a Rampardos used Head Smash on a window. Wow, what a ripoff of 4 GB… *2025-09-23, version 6.0.7* Well, Bulbapedia sure is a great…emotional trigger for me! Mwahaha… ### 1/5 — Just a spinning wheel *2025-09-11, version 6.0.7* The app has zero content? It must be a bug or something because it just keeps loading. Tried closing and reopening and it never works. ### 1/5 — APP WILL NOT RESPOND OR OPEN *2025-08-05, version 6.0.7* DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY ALSO STOP LYING THERE ARE NO WALKTHROUGHS Y'ALL REMOVED THEM LIARS ### 1/5 — Does not load *2025-08-02, version 6.0.7* I have tried redownloading the app, does not load the “zim” files. Stuck on homepage with infinite loading screen. Fix your app ### 1/5 — I think it’s broken *2025-07-17, version 6.0.7* It won’t show anything ### 1/5 — Not loading *2025-07-13, version 6.0.7* When i open the app it says the zim file is corrupted and wont load ever, but when i load the website it works fine, am i doing sonething wrong or is the app just not working ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2025-07-06, version 6.0.7* Doesnt even load ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bulbapedia requests *2025-08-13, version 6.0.7* The app is very good, but I suggest putting Husui and Paldea in it if not added already because the web has it. ### 5/5 — booty bajooty *2025-04-16, version 6.0.7* honestly wont even let me get in but i guarantee myself that is a great app ### 5/5 — Needs a fresh update *2025-04-14* Hi guys, I love this app. I use it all the time for all my Pokémon needs.
