The game
The official guide calls it a browser Pokémon survival game in the style of Survivor.io and Vampire Survivors. You pick a partner and roam. Moves fire on their own.
The same guide says 966 Pokémon and 9 regions. A level-up asks you to pick 1 of 3 cards: a new move, an upgrade, or a boost. Co-op caps at 4.
The site footer says the game is free and non-profit, with no ads or purchases. Voluntary donations for the servers give no advantage. The footer also says the project is not affiliated with Nintendo, Creatures, GAME FREAK, or The Pokémon Company. It has no official cryptocurrency or token.
