01 / More to discover

The ball moves fast. The story keeps moving.

One game screen can only tell part of the tale.

A companion, not a distraction

The game happens.
Pokepindex keeps up.

It reads the action unfolding on the Stern Pokémon game display, then shows a tailored layer of supplementary content exactly when the moment earns it.
