So, Pokemon Shuffle came out today! It’s a fairly cute game–somewhat similar to Pokemon Trozei, though, I honestly prefer this game. It is free to download, though, the catch is the game is very heavily based off mobile games. You have to wait to get more “hearts” in order to enter a Battle. Each Battle costs a heart (a heart will replenish every 30 minutes), you can buy gems to replenish them instantly (and sometimes get gems for free in the game itself) and also for coins which can be used to get power-ups and great balls.
So far, I’ve only purchased gems once. I have been able to get some of the harder to get Pokemon and you can watch an hour my playthrough of the game below:
That said, while you do not need to pay for anything, the game requires a bit more luck for some things if you don’t–you’ll see a good example when I’m trying to catch Torchic which starts at 45 minutes and 10 seconds or so in. And don’t even get me started on the expert timed ones T___T
You can also check out the trailer below:
Plus Mega Audino is in it and is the first Mega you get and that is amazing:
LOOK HOW CUTE SHE IS.
But yes, despite some frustrations with the heart regeneration and how few coins you really earn, I’ve found myself having a lot of fun with it. Remember, it’s free to download so there’s no reason not to give it a try!
