6th-gen Pokemon game mobile port
Pokemon: X is a free adventure game, serving as a mobile port for the 2013 Nintendo game. This remake by APKFlash Uploader recreates the role-playing and monster-collecting experience, letting you revisit this massive leap into the Pokemon franchise.
With more than 70 new species, an all-new type, and 3D rendered models instead of the usual 2D sprites, Pokemon: X is a game you’ll want to try once more—right from your mobile devices. For Pokemon fans who haven’t played it before, it’s easier than most games, making it too easy for experienced players. Also, check out Pokemon: Platinum or Pokemon: Emerald.
A 3D Pokemon adventure
Pokemon: X, together with its partner game Pokemon: Y, is based on the French-looking region of Kalos. It’s the sixth generation of the franchise. Together, these games introduce 72 new species of pocket monsters (Pokemon), some of them being under the new Fairy type. This generation also saw the use of polygonal 3D graphics instead of 2D sprites, which was the convention up to this point.
As a mobile port, you can expect the full experience right from your device. Unlike other remakes, it can be played in portrait or landscape mode. Doing so in portrait, however, shares the screen between the game display and the remapped controller. In terms of graphics and sounds, you can also expect the same 3D polygonal graphics accompanied by the original soundtrack, adding immersion to the overall experience.
Lastly, it also has a seamless multiplayer experience that lets you fight or trade with players from other parts of the world. Granted, it doesn’t have enough structure to sort players based on skill levels, and the same can be said for its lack of anti-cheating measures. Basically, multiplayer is an anything-goes experience. On the plus side, most compatibility issues for new devices are resolved through its regular updates.
A more personalized gaming experience
Another aspect that sets this title apart from the others under the same franchise is the possibility to edit the player’s avatar. This is a step forward from the typical choose-a-gender character conceptualization from earlier games, although the selections are glaringly limited. After picking your trainer’s gender, you can then pick their skin, hair, and eye color. Unfortunately, changing hairstyles or more minute facial details is not possible.
A smooth and faithful adaptation
Overall, Playing Pokemon: X feels like having the real thing on your mobile device. You can play it in portrait or landscape, and it captures all of the content from the original Nintendo game—down to the graphics and audio. Aside from the inevitable smaller game screen in portrait mode and the unfiltered multiplayer experience, this game is a great mobile port.
