Pokémon games on mobile aren't anything new, though Pokémon GO set a new bar in popularity as it went viral and generated significant revenue in 2016. The latest app is unlikely to reach those heights, but it'll be interesting to see how it performs.

Pokémon Duel is out now in territories such as North America and Europe, on both iOS and Android. It was originally called Pokémon Comaster and has been out for a good while in Japan; it plays a little like a board game as you build your team, move, fortify positions and battle others. There's online play, and of course it has various micro-transactions in its own store.

On its Google Play page it's already racked up more than 100,000 downloads (it's free-to-start), though an average of just under 5000 reviews (at the time of writing) has it sitting at 3.1 stars out 5, with some unimpressed with the game's setup.
