Pokémon GO is an augmented reality (AR) mobile game where players explore the real world to catch Pokémon, battle, and complete quests. Here’s how to play: 1. Catch Pokémon: As you walk around, Pokémon appear on the map. Tap a Pokémon to enter the capture screen. Swipe up on the Poké Ball to throw it at the Pokémon. Using items like Razz Berries or Ultra Balls can make catching harder Pokémon easier. 2. PokéStops and Gyms: Visit real-world locations marked as PokéStops to collect items like Poké Balls, Potions, and Eggs. Gyms are where you can battle other players’ Pokémon to control the Gym and earn rewards. Spin the Gyms to collect items too. 3. Hatch Eggs and Buddy System: Collect Eggs from PokéStops and hatch them by walking a certain distance. You can also choose a Pokémon as your Buddy, which earns you candy (used to evolve Pokémon) as you walk. 4. Battle and Raids: You can battle in Gyms, against Team GO Rocket, or participate in Raid Battles. Raids are cooperative battles against powerful Pokémon, often Legendary, which you can catch afterward. 5. Complete Quests: Daily tasks and special research quests offer rewards, including rare Pokémon encounters. Exploration, collecting, and battling are key to leveling up, evolving your Pokémon, and becoming a Pokémon Master in Pokémon GO!
