Pokémon Masters' Success Continues With 10 Million Downloads In Just Four Days

And no one was shocked.

What annoys me is that I hate how they monitized this game, but it's going to make so much money for them that they won't care.

10 Millions has been Downloaded.

But...

How many millions has been removed from their smartphone after tried and found it was disappointing experience ?

High Numbers of Download does NOT equal High Popularity because there was a popularity probably built from Wannabes with No sense of dedication. Wannabes just only tried for a while to be same like others then forget the things when other peoples neglected it.

Mildly amused that the online in-game shots I've yet seen is some people standing around. Surely real pokémon masters would be pitting their fuzzy little friends agaisnt eachother somehow?

It’s Pokémon. It’s free. It’s all good

All it means 10 million have downloaded , doesn't take into account how many have deleted it since.

except in Netherlands and Belgium

and i live in Netherlands!!!

Overall a pretty nice experience
I am enjoying the game and was lucky with the gotcha mechanic so far
Not going to pay for that of course but I will enjoy the game

@Xelha,

Quality in your eyes though,I am sure lots of people love playing Pokemon games and have no issues with them,why do we always seem to need to get your seal of approval..oh sorry you and your couple of mates on various forums around the internet?.

As a comparison, it took Pokemon Go seven days to reach 10 million downloads.

@Xelha The “irrespective of quality” part is what makes me lose faith in humanity. It’s like the fanbase is just begging to be ripped off.

I may download and try it tonight, when I get home. From what I've read, it's looking like a good game.

Talking about download numbers for a free2play game is kinda pointless, especially from brand names this big. I think the amount of people who actively continue to use it and spend money on it will be more telling.

10 Million Downloads, what about the 10 Million that can't even play it, due to Device not compatible lol

@Bolt_Strike That's how fanboys operate these days, they don't really care about actual quality or trying to look at things objectively, it's all about supporting their favorite franchise.

@johnvboy alright, calm down mate

I tried it, but I've already largely lost interest. There's just too much going on that I am not that interested in. There are other series I would rather enjoy fan service for.

The ways this game handles evolving, learning moves and acquiring characters are all just not very fun. Not to mention the fact that it's buggy too.

The combat is fun, but it all feels very bare bones at this early stage. It's possible it'll improve with time, expanding the options for moves per Pokemon, but given the existence of a Brock "alt" where he uses a Tyranitaur instead of Onix, the odds of having Pokemon options per trainer seems unlikely.

Like Fire Emblem Heroes, I imagine a year from now, the game will be rife with doubles and triples of every trainer with a different Pokemon, but more importantly, said trainer in some newer, most likely skimpier outfit.

Meanwhile I can't even download it because my phone isn't compatible even though it meets/exceeds the listed requirements. A problem with Motorola and a couple other phones I've found

@Aaronnnnn,

Why?,have we appointed you as a moderator on here?,you could suggest the constant moaners on here to tone it down as well,with their endless comments worded as if everybody else agrees with them.

@johnvboy lol, k boy

@johnvboy Also, you don't put a comma at the end of a question mark, and it's two spaces after a period, question mark, explanation mark, etc. You're welcome 😉

@Aaronnnnn,

Thanks for that fella,but you have still not answered my question.

@johnvboy I'm saying calm down because you are acting immature when someone just gave their opinion on a game. Also, how does saying calm down make you think I'm a mod? Oh yeah, it's one space after you put a comma

@Aaronnnnn,

I am not angry fella.

@johnvboy immature and angry don't mean the same thing

@Aaronnnnn,

Well I guess I am not as mature as somebody pointing errors with posts on here, you did say calm down, which does suggest anger.

@johnvboy alright, at this point you're just spouting random stuff at this point trying to make me look like the bad guy, and it's clear you won't stop, so bye

@Aaronnnnn,

No problems mate.

@johnvboy The quality issues go beyond just personal taste though, there's issues with the whole F2P model. They're intentionally designed to be low budget games that milk gamers for every penny they can, to the point where you could easily end up paying more for it than a full fledged AAA console game. It's a staunchly anti-consumer business model that sadly a lot of gullible players are falling for. If you like a quick and shallow experience, fine, but there's something very wrong with paying much more for a game that's worth much less.

@Bolt_Strike,

I have no issues with yourself and others stating these new Pokemon games are simple cash and grabs, but it's still a personal opinion of a minority of people at the end of the day, the mass Pokemon buying public will love these games and in their opinion have no issues at all, this is also based on their own personal opinions and can't be taken as fact either, just like all the negative opinions, my issue is when the far more vocal negative side state their concerns as not only fact but also these said opinions are shared by everybody else.
