How to play?

"Pokémon Shuffle Mobile" is puzzle game based app. How to play it is very easy, you only have to match 3 or more pairs of the same Pokémon, and the Pokémon will attack the wild Pokémon that you have to catch later after you beat them. Same with the other Pokémon games, the damage dealt by your Pokémon will depend on the type of Pokémon you use and the type of the wild Pokémon which you have to face. It could be very effective or not effective depend on you. The more Pokémon that you match, the greater the damage will dealt and the higher score you will earned.

Keep in mind, in every level you will encounter a wild Pokémon and you have to defeat it in limited moves or time, and every Pokémon has a various disruption to inhibit your move. Like rock block, dark cloud, ice block, etc. Your Pokémon also have different power that would be very useful against disruption and wild Pokémon, such as clear block, remove barrier, occasionally dealt greater damage, clear away cloud, etc. So you should be careful in choosing the lead and support Pokémon which will you take to face wild Pokémon.

Heart, Coin, Jewel

In "Pokémon Shuffle Mobile" there is thing called Heart, Coin, and Jewel that have different uses. I will explain below:

Heart
"Heart" can be considered as live in "Pokémon Shuffle Mobile". To play a level normally you need a "Heart". Usually you only need one "Heart" to play one level, but on a high level difficulties sometimes you need 2 "Heart" or more. However, there is also a level that does not require "Heart" to play. You will get 1 "Heart" every 30 minutes and you can only have a maximum of 5 "Heart". But, sometimes after you complete a certain level you will get a bonus 5 "Heart" or you can also get bonus from special event.
Coin
Coin is like money in "Pokémon Shuffle Mobile". You can use coins to buy special items that will be useful for defeating wild Pokémon each level. Sometimes to play a level you are required to pay with coins and "Heart", and sometimes you need coins to buy Great Ball to catch Pokémon wild with low possibility. You will get 500 coins each time you log in daily. You can also get a coin by defeating wild Pokémon or sometimes wild Pokémon will drop coins while you are facing it and you can get these coins by matching it. Coins can also be obtained by exchanging Jewel in shop.

You will get a free Jewel in the beginning of the game and if you need more you can buy at the shop with real money. If you are an under age, you need adult consent to buy Jewel.
