Pokémon Phone, mostly known as Poképhone (and also PokéPhone), is an electronic device that is a fusion of the Pokédex and Pokégear, taking the appearance of an average cell phone. It was made to replace the common Pokédex for new trainers.

Appearance

The Poképhone is a rectangle-shaped device that is a touchscreen. The color depends on the Trainer and their gender, for boys, it's usually red highlighted in white, for girls, pink highlighted in white as well. They can be custom-made/designed, and different applications can be added.

To replace a broken Poképhone, the charge is 550 Pokémon Dollars.

Features

  • Call: Similar to a normal Cell Phone and the Pokégear, the Poképhone can be used to call anyone. It also has a Contact List that can hold up to 100 Names and Numbers.
  • Waterproof: The Poképhone is made to be waterproof.
  • Hard case: The Poképhone has a hard outside case which protects it should it be dropped on the ground by accident.
  • Clock
  • Camera
  • Lock screen

Applications

Pokédex

The Poképhone is pre-installed with a Pokédex app that gives Trainers information on all Pokémon in the world. Unlike the original Pokédexes, the Pokédex app contains all the information on all the Pokémon in the world, not just a specific region. The Pokédex app works just like the Pokédex so all the information that Pokédex gives out normally is included. Much like an actual Pokédex, the App can let you scan Pokémon when they are inside their Pokéball.

Map

The Map App allows the trainer to see their location and also where they can go. The trainer is able to pinpoint their location by looking for a blinking dot, which varies depending on their Pokephone color.

Money

The Money App lets the trainer see how much money they earn in battles or tournaments. It is directly linked to Bank Account they must create either prior to the start of their journey or the day they get their Trainer card. It also lets you transfer money from one trainer to the other, as seen when David transfers money to Scarlett after winning their battle.

Limitations

Like with a real cell phone, the Poképhone has some limitations:

  • Connection: In order for the map and phone features to work, the Poképhone must have a connection to some tower. The Poképhone will not work while in caves.
