# MH World Database vs Prokedex

The clearest difference is rating: Prokedex at 4.8 against MH World Database's 4.0. Prokedex also leads on ratings volume (996 vs 24). MH World Database's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Prokedex sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. MH World Database asks for nothing beyond the download.
