Gameplay
Pokémon Duel is a strategy board game using Pokémon figures. Players collect and build their own deck from a large range of figures with different characteristics. Each player moves figures, aiming to reach their opponent's goal first.
The gameplay is based on that of the Pokémon Trading Figure Game with slight changes. For example, Trainer figures no longer exist, and all item cards work automatically.
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.
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 his 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.
