Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Amazing and great to use just needs to be updated with each new regulation.
We have been almost a whole Month with REG H can we get an update. Overall great app tho much. Its like having a real life pokedex for competetive.
We were pretty disappointed to see that the app doesnt have the damage calculator as it is one of the best features on the website. We probably wouldnt have bought it if we had known. Otherwise, the app is fine.
The UI is good but the data in the app is outdated compared to the web version, so is useless at this point.
No reason to charge for this app when you CANT EVEN TEAM BUILD.
The app is amazing, but its outdated by 6 months now.
We like it but it needs an update asap.
We adore Pikalytics, but Im miffed that we spent money on an app thats sorely in need of an update to be relevant.
Like the meta change almost every week, so the app doesnt have constantly update.
It was nice while it was updated… But the app is still on Regulation C now. That's many months behind. This is pretty much useless for anyone looking to teambuild for later regulations. Just go to their website at this point.
Its a really nice app, but its still on regulation C.
Not able to switch between generations or metas easily. No teambuilder or team stats. No type chart or any other tools that we could see. If you don't play the newest Pokemon game and want to know the meta of any certain gen it's just not a useful app.
The website is updated very often and is reliable. But this company forgets about its app some how and stays extremely far behind.
We just wish for more frequent updates.
Using the website isnt as user friendly from a phone, but the data is updated WAY more frequently. Its been 2-3 months since the last update to the app.
Im new to vgc and Im hoping we get to see a update soon with the new season and Pokmon added.
Love this app but cant give it 5 star because its not updated regularly. Have to go to their website to see updates.
We love the usage statistics this app provides. If the app also supported team building just like the pikalytics website does this would be easy 5 stars.
Great app, quality information and ease of use. Just a few months behind for updated stats. Would be a 5 star if regularly updated.
Awesome app but, the info is not accurate its a little behind when compared to the actual website.
Paid 0.99 because we were trying to team build via the site but half our phone was an ad and then come to find we can't team build in this? C'mon now.
How come we cant see EVs, abilities, or personalities for Pokmon on an app we paid for that we can see on a free website? Im confused by that choice.
The app doesnt include item usage distribution, ability distribution or or alternate ev spread information, but the website does. Why would we pay for missing information.
So not sure if Im missing something or not. We will readjust our rating if we are but is this just showing popular moves, base stats, and teammates for each Pokmon? We know their site offers a load of information and was expecting for a paid app Id be getting that information in a phone friendly format. For a premium app all we get is three pieces of info on each Pokmon? We woulda liked to see meta spreads and a team builder at least. Was just expecting a little more.
Doesn't even include item or ability usage, let alone the team builder. Far inferior to the free website.
This is a great tool and even after recently downloading it we find it amazing but it needs to have a way where you can plug in a te that you've made or have a team builder section that would compare to how marrilands website used to be before it stopped working because we can get the ideas and what to through on our team but we can't see how all six works together all on the same page, it's just each individual pokemon and possible teammates (it's amazing and we mean no hate but we need a team builder).
We love this app tremendously. Been playing Pokmon for over 20+years and seeing the meta constantly shift over the generations can be difficult to keep up with sometimes. This app helps you keep current we love the ease and versatility you provide. Only a small suggestion when you select a Pokmon maybe add their typings next to their name as well. Helps with synergy and such. Love love love this app.
This app is terrible. No team building or anything. Dont waste your money.
The App is amazing. It has really helped us put together a good competitive team that dominates. Just a suggestion, we were wondering if it could be possible to add the natures of the Pokmons as well.
This app is amazing totally worth the money.
We like the app, its a little annoying to pay 99 cents and still need to go to the website for the vgc damage calculator.
Its January 23rd 2021 and the latest stats they have are from November 2020 which is Octobers 2020 end of month stats. This is a paid app so we would like to believe the developer would copy and paste more updated stats to this app but it seems as though this app has lost its support. Such a shame.
We love the ease of use and how quickly we can look up exactly what we need to on this app! A few suggestions: -Type Chart for specific Pokmon or a generalized one would be awesome! -Team builder would be a great addition to this app, along with showing what youre weakness is based on the current meta. – Quite a few of the descriptions of Items/Moves end early with a … Without giving any way of seeing the rest of it. While this isnt a dealbreaker, it does get quite annoying having to go look up the rest of the move somewhere else. And thats all! Other than that, we love the app and Im using it constantly.
So good for looking at Pokmon on the go, and really fun to just look at. We also dont really care about the team building because we feel that Pokmon showdown is better at team building. But amazing app, and Definitly worth 1 dollar, and maybe even 5 dollars! Editing this, we realize it would definitly be great to have teambuilder, and if it was better, it would be exceptional.
We enjoy using the desktop version of Pikalytics all the time to teambuild. The app keeps the clean and easy to use design from the website, but it missing a team builder makes it lacking.
Would be a perfect 5 if it had the team builder as well.
IPhone X if that matters… This app is at a great starting point, and the data is super valuable but… But sometimes descriptions end mid-sentence with an ellipsis…. Which is super annoying when youre trying to learn the nitty gritty of an attack or ability. Id love to follow through info with more info. Or instance we see an ability we find interesting, we click it, and Pikalytics would show us all the Pokmon who have it.
We were thrilled to have Pikalytics as an app to avoid the ads on the website when working on team building. However the app and website DO NOT match. If youre team building use the website otherwise youre getting outdated building stats. Id definitely upgrade the review if the app matched the stats and information from the website but until then its what it is.
This app is an amazing tool to use especially for starting new in VGC. We hope one day to get the team builder on the app too.
We would pay a premium if we could theory craft teams on this already incredibly useful app. If you play competitive, this is the app youll need! It allows you to quickly look up moves and stats in game and has saved us in many of our ladder and friendly tournament games, along with assessing which mons you want for your competitive roster.
Hey we really love the damage calc feature on the pikalytics web app we were wondering if it will ever make its way to the mobile app we would greatly appreciate it.
Very convenient, has everything the website has for VGC, SINGLES, OU, and UBERS up to date.
The app is very bare bones. No team building, comparisons etc.
We got the app because we wanted to help support the creators of Pikalytics. Cannot express how useful it is as a competitive player to have access to all of these stats. The only thing we would like them to add to the app is a team builder like they have on the website, but other than that, a flawless app.
Great if you only play swshwheres the rest of the Pokmon? People are playing BDSP on Showdownthe website has it so Im disappointed.
This is a tremendously helpful tool while we are playing, in the car, and so much more. It makes you a better Pokmon player.
We dont understand the reviews, but this app is horrible! The features are very limited it is not anywhere near the usefulness as the website. It also crashes quite frequently. Do not waste youre money on this disappointing app.
Amazing app, use it everyday, does exactly what it should.
We do VGC content and in the masterball tier this app is key in building ALL our new teams.
We love the fact you can switch dark mode on or off and pick favorite Pokmon so you can track certain Pokmon. Very well made app, thank you.
