### 5/5 — Sonic’mon

*2025-11-19, version 3.3*

Jewel

### 5/5 — Ol’ Reliable

*2025-08-03, version 3.3*

Use it on a regular basis and it’s never let me down

### 4/5 — Please Read!!

*2023-12-22, version 3.3*

Great game but please add the new generations the latest is pkmn sword*shield, and I don’t think that the s*s dlc is even in there, (it isn’t)
Pls update soon.

### 5/5 — Extremely good

*2023-11-01*

Not only does it have types, it also has base stats for Pokémon and base move damage! It’s the Amazon of Pokémon.

### 4/5 — Heavily needs updated

*2023-05-27, version 3.3*

Not saying that it’s bad (it’s actually really accurate), but it is long overdue for an update. Many new things have been released, and this app is still at generation 8. I would love if you could add legends Arceus and scarlet and Violet to the app, because it could potentially revive it!

### 3/5 — New Pokemon!

*2023-02-16, version 3.3*

I was wondering if you could add 891-1008 please! This app makes it really easy to look up types and stats, but not if you have scarlet, violet, isle of armor, or crown tundra. If you could fix that it would be 5 star for sure!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2022-12-21, version 3.3*

This is super convenient, and wonderfully designed. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Love this app, just a few notes for the creators

*2022-10-04, version 3.3*

Hi, I downloaded this thinking I wouldn’t need it often, but I need it almost daily! I just hope that there will be more frequent updates for newer moves and Pokémon so I can look up base stats for the gen 9 Pokémon, along with Hisui Pokémon, which I’m surprised aren’t already there. So please update with new Pokémon, and thanks!

### 2/5 — Great but won’t restore

*2022-09-07, version 3.3*

Great app but won’t restore my purchase for add free. I confirmed that I paid for it but if I hit restore it tries to charge me again. If you try to find developer support it takes you to a Facebook page that is private. Literally can’t contact support for help. App is great but you have to at least give me an email or something if you are asking for money. Not the end of the world but very frustrating. I like the app and find it very helpful.

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2022-08-17, version 3.3*

I use this for Pokémon Go and it’s a life saver. I am having trouble figuring out why there’s two scroll wheels on the Defending tab, and I agree with the other review in that I believe selecting the types to be a pop-up menu instead of a scroll wheel.
