The game was released on July 6 to iOS and Android devices throughout the world. It's essentially a variation of Pokemon snap and the original red/blue games for Gameboy. Players walk, skateboard or bike around their area and the GPS-based augmented reality simulates what it was like to walk around the grass in those early handheld versions of the games.

If you catch one of your teammates, coaches or even just want to show off your Pokemon catching skills, be sure to tweet @Flowrestling or tag @Flowrestling on Instagram. Let us know in the comments down below who on your team is the Pokemaster. And please remember to look both ways while trying to Ketchum all.
