Overall, Pocket Mortys took a great concept and a perfect show that would get behind what's practically collecting child slaves, but delivers almost none of the charm of the show with a horribly flawed battle system, design options that drove my OCD to insane levels (cannot re-arrange moves, which we've had since Pokemon in the NINETIES), and even put micro-transactions into it (but of course, what else would you expect from the worst platform for gaming?)! Not that you have to pay for it, as I definitely wouldn't, but it's there. Most attacks will be a 'normal'-style attack while some with have an 'element' of Rock, Paper, or Scissors behind it, which do 'sensational!' damage to an element that it's strong against (PM's version of 'It's super effective!'), while doing 'pathetic' damage to an element that it's weak against ('Not very effective.'). Accuracy I've noticed actually does it's job but Attack and Defense buffs/debuffs do literally nothing. Except, literally every buff/debuff except for Accuracy ones do absolutely nothing! I'll 'raise my attack' 3 times and do literally the same amount of damage I did on turn 1 before I buffed myself. Oh yeah, battles! That's probably the worst aspect of the game! Attacks come in 3 forms: Attacking, Buffing, and Debuffing. It's incredibly repetitive and boring to the point where I'm already skipping fights. I've already been playing for more than enough time to know where this is going. You go to random portal fields and collect 'badges' (just like Pokemon, haha) from the field's Rick to challenge the Council of Ricks to get your Portal Gun back, but that's essentially the entire game. You collect Mortys and can combine two of the same one into a better Morty, which is pretty much all the draw of the game. There's some references, sure, but nothing that really makes you go 'Oh wow that's awesome!'. There's very little of that amazing Rick & Morty humor that's found in the show. But, that's pretty much all the charm of the game. Instead of Water, Fire, Electric, etc types of Mortys, you have Rock, Paper, and Scissors Mortys, which I find to be hilarious to how blunt they're being with it.

The basic game itself is a very dumbed-down version of Pokemon, which in itself isn't that bad for an idea. Pocket Mortys takes a great show filled with amazing references/catch-phrases for the young adult generation, puts it on a very popular Pocket Mortys takes a great show filled with amazing references/catch-phrases for the young adult generation, puts it on a very popular platform for that generation, picks great nostalgia of RPG/Pokemon troupes for that genre, mixes them all together, and **** out a game that falls incredibly short of expectations. Overall, overjoyed and continuing enjoying my time with Pocket Mortys. Impossible to put down, and if you pay attention, the background music, at least for me for this is my review, evokes moments from the show (not including the very obvious theme song reference), maybe that's just for me. Not much long after completion of the main story, even with the newer additions, I've just deleted save data and just wanted to start over and try different ways of completing the same goal. Certainly addictive by just about every means necessary. Even other games that people would give 10s are games that aren't perfect, and this is the same, but it's a 10 for doing what it perfectly does correctly, it makes a simpler version of Pokemon that excites viewers of the shows with references to characters and other inter-dimensional creatures and things. They at least include a story that could've easily been on an episode. Every game has its flaws, and naturally with constant comparisons at the time of it's release to Pokemon, I was skeptical it would be very Every game has its flaws, and naturally with constant comparisons at the time of it's release to Pokemon, I was skeptical it would be very cookie cutter with show references, but it's not.
