Gameplay

Pokémon Duel is a strategy board game based on the Pokémon Trading Figure Game. Players collect and build their own deck from a large range of figures with different characteristics. For the basic rules of the game, see Pokémon Trading Figure Game→Mechanics.

Players may transfer their game data to another device. Within the Options menu, setting a transfer password will generate a transfer ID; when the password and ID are entered into the Game Data Transfer option of another device, the player's save data and Gems will be moved to the new device. After data is transferred from a device, a new save file under a new account must be made. If data is transferred from iOS to Android or vice versa, Gems will not be transferred.

Changes from the Trading Figure Game

• Trainer cards are replaced by Plates, which have no chance of failing; Trainer figures are removed because of this.
• Figures of evolved Pokémon may be evolved, increasing the damage of the evolved Pokemon's moves.
• Figures use the Pokémon's types from the Pokémon games rather than the types from the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
• Pokémon Powers have been renamed Abilities.
• A figure's action wheel can be altered by leveling up the figure. The size of actions can be increased, thus decreasing the size of the Miss section of that figure.

Shop

A shop run by Luca's sister Tia sells Boosters, Plates, and figures. The Boosters and Plates are bought with Gems and figures are bought with Materials. Figures can also be sold to the shop for Coins.

Gems

Gems can be purchased with real money from the Gem Counter run by Maribelle. Each pack of Gems has a point value that is deducted from a 50000 point pool. Gems cannot be purchased if the player does not have enough points and the pool is reset at the beginning of every month.

Plot

Aiming to become the Hotel King, the player arrives in Carmonte Island, an artificial island housing a city of resorts. The island hosts the Pokémon Figure Games (PFG) World Tournament, where its top prize is the symbol of Carmonte Island, Jewel Tower. The tournament is hosted by the tower's current owner, Master Rosé.

Along their way to the island, the player encounters and befriends Luca, the scion of a prestigious family. During the tournament, the player collects figures and plates, partners with an AI named Carlo, and challenges various NPCs to a duel in order to reach the boss in the highest level. In the defeat of each boss, the player will receive an emblem as a testimony to their victory.

After befriending a popular idol named Sharon, the player is stalked by members of the Roger family, an influential organization in Carmonte Island.
