Pro Tacktics – How To Play Pokémon Go

by Daniel Tack on Jul 07, 2016 at 11:17 AM

Pokémon Go is much different than other titles in the series, offering an experience that dictates lots of exploring, walking around, and interaction with allied teams, opposing teams, and gyms, both at non-social and social levels.

Niantic's game comes with a lot more questions for the beginning player as it's not quite as simple as grabbing your Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle and then walking out and battling other trainers. You're going to have to hit up Pokéstops for a loot trickle, wander around looking for rustling grass to catch hot Pokémon, and eventually tackle opposing gyms while reinforcing your own with powerful Pokémon to get rewards.

Learn all about Pokémon Go in this latest episode of Pro Tacktics with Dan Tack and Wade Wojcik!
