The player needs to establish an account first then create an avatar by choosing skin, hair and eye color including outfit and style. After the avatar, there will be a display that will show your current location, map, Pokémon gyms (this will serve as combat locations) and PokéStops (will provide players with items Poke balls, eggs, potions and lures). As you go along, your avatar will move along the map.

You should know that Pokémon species live in different parts of the world. When you encounter a Pokémon, you can see it either in Augmented Reality (AR) mode or a live background. You do not battle a Pokémon. The ultimate goal of the game is to capture and complete the Pokédex – a Pokémon encyclopedia. You should capture and evolve to attain the unique 151 Pokémons. If you want to catch Pokémons, make sure that you have higher combat power.

The game is praised by many but others said otherwise. Medical professionals actually claimed that it improved the physical and mental health of the players. For others, it attracted dispute because of some reports that it caused accidents as well as being a nuisance at some public areas. Despite of how people see it, if you like the game, just continue playing.
