What Is Pokémon Rocket Strike?
The idea behind Pokémon Rocket Strike goes against the classic Pokémon formula: this time, you are the bad guy! Get into the shoes of a Team Rocket recruit aspiring to capture all the 380 Pokémon through new regions and challenges. With famous faces from the series and new twists, this free ride turns you toward exploring the dark side of Pokémon. Will you make your way all the way up to be the alternative Pokémon thief?
Gameplay
- Objective: Catch as many Pokémon as you can for Team Rocket.
- Exploration: Move around various zones, each hiding different kinds of Pokémon.
- Battles: Try to strategicly weaken wild Pokémon so that capturing them will be easier.
- Progression: Open new zones and harder challenges as you proceed.
Tips & Tricks
- Catch the Rare Ones First: Some Pokémon are more difficult to spot. Stay sharp!
- Secondary Tools Should Be Stocked: Always have with you a sufficient amount of Poké Balls or items that affect a Pokémon's status.
- Know the Types: Even villains can take advantage of weaknesses and end battles faster.
- Avoid Trainer Conflicts: Unlike the mainline Pokémon games, here you are the target of the law. Saving money will help turn off some battles.
