Pokemon Go is no longer an inescapable phenomenon, but Niantic's augmented reality, monster-catching adventure remains one of mobile gaming's most enduring juggernauts. Show Pokemon Go has received several updates since its launch, making it incredibly fun to play. It requires you to get up, leave the couch, and visit real-world locations to replenish important items, participate in Gym and Raid Battles, and of course, catch wild Pokemon. The rules have been relaxed during the COVID-19 era (you can play indoors!), but going outside is still generally the point. Unfortunately, the game provides little guidance on the nuances of catching, collecting, and evolving Pokemon—there's barely a tutorial. If you're just starting out, see How to Get Started and Catch 'Em All for a primer on what every icon means, how to capture Pokemon, and other basics. The following advanced tips and tricks go one step further to help you truly master Pokemon Go, use it to enhance your other Pokemon adventures on consoles, and maybe, just maybe, put you in the mood for the upcoming Pokemon Sleep. And if you want your Nintendo AR mobile adventure to be just a bit more chill, there's always Pikmin Bloom. Advertisement 1.

Though the mobile AR game has been out since 2016, those who aren't die-hard Pokémon fans are still getting into Pokémon GO.

Through raids, special events, and trading, players can obtain just about any Pokémon imaginable — yes, even Legendary and Mythical Pokémon.
