Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dextopia at none against Prokedex's 2. Dextopia also leads on ads (none vs shown). Prokedex's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 50%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
