Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019d be silly not to start this list with what is arguably one of the biggest mobile\u00a0games there has ever been: Pok\u00e9mon Go. When Niantic first launched Pok\u00e9mon Go the game took the world by storm, hoovering up hundreds of millions of players all over the world. That\u2019s despite the game having plenty of bugs back then and proving rather frustrating. Most of those bugs have gone now meaning Pok\u00e9mon Go is more to fun to play than it has been in the past.<\/p>\n

Download Pok\u00e9mon Go and then head out into the real world in search of virtual Pok\u00e9mon using Pok\u00e9mon Go\u2019s Augmented Reality gaming engine. You can simply collect your Pok\u00e9mon, trade them with your friends, or use them in battles and raids. Pok\u00e9mon Go is also receiving regular updates, including new Pok\u00e9mon, being added to the game all the time. Niantic also runs global events regularly too.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon Shuffle<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"Pokemon<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a fan of Candy Crush<\/a>, you\u2019ll probably like Pok\u00e9mon Shuffle too. Shuffle began its life on the Nintendo 3DS but is now available for free on iOS and Android smartphones. Like in Candy Crush you need to line up three of the same Pok\u00e9mon in a line in order to see them off. Be careful though, as although this game is available for free, once you run out of lives, you\u2019ll either have to pay for more or wait around until the game grants you some.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon Quest<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon Quest is a bit of a strange entity. The game is developed by Game Freak, which is also behind the main franchise but looks nothing like the extremely popular main game series. If you were to say Pok\u00e9mon Quest looks like anything, you\u2019d have to say it looks like Minecraft with characters and Pok\u00e9mon taking on a distinct block-like form and the action taking place on Tumblecube Island.<\/p>\n

Quest is available on iPhone, Android, and the Nintendo\u00a0Switch and offers a gaming experience much smaller in scope than the main games. It does, however,\u00a0 include all the Pok\u00e9mon from the original Pok\u00e9mon Red and Blue games and offers a decent amount of game world to explore, and a rudimentary battle system.<\/p>\n

\"Pixelmon\"<\/p>\n

If Pok\u00e9mon Quest stands out because it looks Minecraft, then Pixelmon stands out because it is Minecraft<\/a>. Pixelmon is a massive Pok\u00e9mon mod for Minecraft that has created a huge game that incorporates many of the key aspects you\u2019d expect from a Pok\u00e9mon game. On top of that, Pixelmon is regularly receiving big updates and has even spawned its own Wiki, because it is now such a huge game in itself.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon TCG Online<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"Pokemon<\/p>\n

Did you know that Nintendo started out in Japan as a toy company making board games and card games? Well, it did before moving over to making video games consoles and tightly protected video game franchises. The Pok\u00e9mon Company is one such franchise, however, that perfectly bridges that gap as it has a famous trading card game to go with the popular video game franchise.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon TCG Online is a virtual version of the Pok\u00e9mon Trading Card battle game. You can play TCG Online on your iPad, iPhone, Android phone, and web browser. To play you need to scan in the code card that comes with the cards you buy and then practice battling with your Pok\u00e9mon cards. OK, this means the game isn\u2019t completely free, but it does come with a Trainer Challenge that lets you battle without having to first buy a pack of trading cards.<\/p>\n

Pok\u00e9mon Duel has been downloaded for free over 40 million times on iOS and Android. Playing the game will see you pitted against another player in a head to head duel. Duel action takes place as a virtual board game with each player having six Pok\u00e9mon figures that they must move from one side of the board to another.

\"Pokemon<\/p>\n

There are many fan-made Pok\u00e9mon MMORPG games out there. Huge online games that give you the chance to explore Pok\u00e9mon-filled worlds and compete against other online players. In our opinion Pok\u00e9mon Revolution Online is the best of the bunch offering the closest gameplay experience and feel that you\u2019ll get to an official franchise game. Revolution Online has some excellent pixel-art graphics and evens rocks a fantastic Gameboy style sprite-like soundtrack. What tops it all off though, is the regular updates Pok\u00e9mon Revolution Online receives. The game is constantly getting new features and locations for you to try out and explore.<\/p>\n

Wrapping up<\/h5>\n

There you have six free\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon games for you to sink your teeth into. Out of all of them, the biggest experiences come from Niantic\u2019s Pok\u00e9mon Go, which is nothing short of a global sensation and the two fan-made efforts, Pixelmon and Pok\u00e9mon Revolution Online. Although Pok\u00e9mon Go isn\u2019t as popular as it was at the peak of its hype it still has plenty of regular players and is arguable as fun as it has ever been. What Pok\u00e9mon Go has in common with the other two, however, is the continuous support of its developers. As bugs are continuously ironed out and new features added, games just get bigger and better. This is why we\u2019ve chosen Pixelmon, Pok\u00e9mon Revolution Online, and Pok\u00e9mon Go as our three favorite games on this list.<\/p>\n
