Reviews for Pokémon GO

I don’t understand how or why it was decided that players can waste time, effort, and resources into doing raids just for a CHANCE to catch a desired Pokémon. But in a real Pokémon game, it’s a guaranteed catch without having to spend money. I literally have no desire to play something that punishes you […]

Fun game, but there’s been an extremely annoying glitch lately that’s only gotten more frequent with this latest update. For some reason, if you turn the phone screen off while the game is the focused app, there’s a high chance that you’ll no longer be able to interact with anything in the game at all […]

I’ve done everything to troubleshoot, and as many others are saying- after the recent update, you can’t get the game past the first screen, or you get stuck on “enter date of birth” and can’t enter a date. I’ve uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared cache, restarted phone. I tried every suggestion. I’m upset because I play everyday, […]

The safety feature that does not let you catch will be active even if your not moving. it’s random and can engage even if you haven’t been in a fast moving car. they won’t fix this. you don’t know if the catches you miss are because of this or not. Definitely don’t do any paid […]

If this game didn’t have a pokemon wrapping, it would not be played at the numbers it has. And with Scoply adding more and more cost, it’s not a sustainable hobby. It was fun when it was a simple hang out with friends, but infuriating gameplay, frustrating development choices, and now massive increases in premium […]

Ever since the last update, whenever I switch out of the app and this back over to it, the sound completely cuts out and I have to restart the game. Aside from that and the recent removal of the navigation bar while playing (which forces me to constantly waste items when swiping to bring up […]

This game is amazing for a lot of reasons. That doesn’t change the fact it is half of a Pokemon game. Got the catch em’ collectible thing Pokemon is known for going for it. But it fails miserably to have anything of substance for a combat system. Even in its mediocre gameplay, it tends to […]

The throw mechanics in this are extremely random. When you are attempting to catch something that is “far” away it is impossible to reach. Most of the time the ball will fall short and randomly, but rarely, the ball will launch as far as is needed. Given there is no way to practice throwing to […]

The number of bugs in this game is absurd. It’s almost every other day (sometimes several times a day) where the game suddenly “fails to sign in” over and over for several hours. The game used to be a lot more stable, but it’s honestly been the last year or so that the quality has […]

the pairing system in the trainer battles are non-existent. and when I continuously tap on the superpower thing during a battle, I have to tap it from 5-20 times before it will let me do my ultimate. also not really a big deal but I wish it was a bit easier to get coins in […]

I still play, but I only use points earned from other games to redeem on this now. The ‘updates’ are nonstop errors. This was once a good game. Now adding on nonstop ‘Event’ tasks and getting rid of the rewards for completing levels 41-50. Many people put money into the game just to get those […]

The game constantly freezes and has to be closed and reopened. When doing raids, the game will freeze or kick you out when going into the encounter to catch the raid boss. This has been constantly happening for months. I have tried multiple suggested resolutions from Niantic with no change in functionality across multiple devices. […]

I used to love this game. I’ve played it for years and have loved every second of it. However, for the past two months it’s been nothing but a headache. I have not been able to log in at all for almost two months. It started with the gameplay becoming incredibly laggy and slow. I […]

The ball throwing mechanic is terrible and inconsistent, you don’t get enough poke balls from stops, you constantly have to use micro transactions just to make any actual progress, the battle system is boring, your item and pokemon storage spaces are way too small, and you constantly see the same couple of pokemon. Overall summary, […]

Lately being trash, again. Repeatedly, automatically turning off my adventure sync so I’m not getting my steps. Pokemon disappearing from my inventory. Rewards not being granted (such as completion for Go Pass, so level advancement is not being acknowledged). Now refusing to work without my constant precise location. Can’t rate this lower. Trash!

There needs to be a feature where when you level up with friends. they already suggest buying lucky eggs to help double xp. but when I bought an egg for that, my inventory was full without me knowing. because they pop up sudden without a chance of you checking your item bag. the feature is […]

Lower remote raid pass prices! It’s stupid high now. Go back to 250 coins for 3. It was much better when it was like that. Now it takes a week and a half to save up for three, and buying three doesn’t save you coins unless there’s a fake discount meant to make you think […]

As immersive as you allow it to be. The framework of the game is very outdated, but it gets the job done. Still a lot to be desired (better achievement system would be a great start), but I’m afraid a new game would have to be created to get a much better experience. Addictive, gets […]

Id say the game is still fun and playable. but that’s as far as the good things go. The microtransactions are worse than ever, just reviving your Pokémon can be a struggle. its hard just to get together and play it anymore because there’s constant issues with someone or everyone not having a raid pass, […]

Have played this game since the day it came out with many highs and lows over the years. But this has become one of the most frustrating periods! I have not been able to play in over a month! The game litterally freezes within 2 seconds of loading. You CAN’T play! There was ONE day […]
