Pokémon Auto Chess is a fan-developed auto-battler strategy game set in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon universe. Much like other games in the genre, it features:
8-player online PVP matches
Strategic unit placement on a grid-based board
Synergy and evolution mechanics
Randomized unit shops and economy management
Progressive rounds with increasing difficulty
The game blends classic Pokémon evolution and type mechanics with the addictive auto-chess formula, resulting in dynamic and constantly changing gameplay that rewards adaptability and foresight.
What truly sets Pokémon Auto Chess apart is its familiar yet fresh approach. Instead of champions or heroes, you’re drafting iconic Pokémon—each with unique abilities, types, and evolutions—to form the ultimate team.
Getting into Pokémon Auto Chess is surprisingly easy, even if you’ve never played an auto-battler before. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you dive in:
Pokémon Auto Chess uses Firebase Authentication for secure account creation and login. You'll need to register an account using your email, Google, or other supported methods to start playing online matches.
Once you're in, you’ll be introduced to a tutorial or practice mode. Here’s what you need to know:
Rounds: Each game consists of multiple rounds where your team automatically battles against other players' teams.
The Board: Place your Pokémon strategically on a chessboard-style grid. Positioning can be the difference between victory and defeat.
The Shop: At the start of each round, you'll get gold and access to a random shop of Pokémon. Choose wisely based on synergy and team composition.
Evolution: Combine three of the same Pokémon to evolve them into a stronger version.
Synergies: Like types in classic Pokémon, combining certain Pokémon types gives your team unique bonuses—just like elemental bonuses in traditional battles.
Winning in Pokémon Auto Chess is all about balancing:
Economy management – Save or spend gold?
Team synergy – Stack Fire-types or go for a hybrid build?
Positioning – Tanky up front, damage dealers behind?
Adaptability – Can you pivot mid-game if needed?
Experiment with different Pokémon lineups, type combos, and strategies to find your perfect style.
