Gameplay
Pokémon Duel is a strategy board game based on the Pokémon Trading Figure Game. Players collect and build their own deck from a large range of Figures with different characteristics. For the basic rules of the game, see Pokémon Trading Figure Game→Mechanics.
Players are given a Deck Case that holds their Figures (including fusion materials), Plates, and saved deck configurations. Decks and Figures have a maximum on their capacity that can be expanded by spending Gems. The deck limit will increase by one and the Figure limit by 10 for 10 Gems each. There is a 2,000 limit on Figures.
Players may transfer their game data to another device. Within the Options menu, setting a transfer password will generate a transfer ID; when the password and ID are entered into the Game Data Transfer option of another device, the player's save data and Gems will be moved to the new device. After data is transferred from a device, a new save file under a new account must be made. If data is transferred from iOS or iPadOS to Android or vice versa, Gems will not be transferred.
Changes from the Trading Figure Game
- Trainer cards are replaced by Plates, which have no chance of failing; Trainer figures are removed because of this.
- Figures of evolved Pokémon may be evolved, increasing the damage of the evolved Pokémon's moves.
- Figures use the Pokémon's types from the Pokémon games rather than the types from the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
- Pokémon Powers have been renamed Abilities.
- A figure's action wheel can be altered by leveling up the figure. The size of actions can be increased, thus decreasing the size of the Miss section of that figure.
- Version 5.0.6 added Ultra Space, an out-of-play area that acts differently than the normal area where figures removed from play go. Figures in Ultra Space retain any markers and Special Conditions and do not decrease the number of turns left for Wait or Mega Evolution.
Fusion
Fusion is the process by which Figures are leveled up. Fusing a Figure with fusion materials or other Figures will increase the fused Figure's experience and/or chain level. Fusion costs Coins, which are obtained from beating opponents or selling Figures, Plates, and fusion materials to the Shop.
There are four types of fusion materials: Rare Metals , Cubes , Ingots , and Carmonites .
- Rare Metals are used to grant large sums of experience points to Figures to level them up, up to Level 5. The higher the rarity of the Rare Metal, the more experience points it will grant:
- Common Rare Metals give 500 EXP
- Uncommon Rare Metals give 1,000 EXP
- Rare Rare Metals give 4,500 EXP
- EX Rare Metals give 10,500 EXP
- UX Rare Metals give 51,000 EXP
- Cubes are used to grant Chain Points, otherwise available only by fusing Figures with the same ID. Cubes can only be used on Figures with the same rarity (for example, EX Figures need EX Cubes).
- Ingots are intended to be sold directly to the Exchange Coins section of the shop. The higher the rarity of the Ingot, the higher value for which it can be sold. If used for fusion, all rarities give only one EXP.
- Carmonites can only be used on Figures that are at least Level 5. Using Carmonite unlocks the Level cap to Level 10. Each additional Level gained in this way allows for a wheel piece to be increased by 1 while another wheel piece (that is greater than 4) is decreased by 1. The greater the rarity of the Figure, the greater the amount of Carmonite needed to level up (10, 20, 50, 100 and 150 needed for Common, Uncommon, Rare, EX and UX Figures, respectively).
Shop
- Main article: Shop (Duel)
A shop run by Luca's sister Tia sells Boosters, Plates, and Figures.
Gem Counter
Gems can be purchased with real money from the Gem Counter run by Marabelle. Each pack of Gems has a point value that is deducted from a 50000 point pool. Gems cannot be purchased if the player does not have enough points and the pool is reset at the beginning of every month.
Exchange Coins
Figures, Plates, and fusion materials can be sold for Coins . The exact sale price for a figure varies with experience for levels 1-4. The tables below list the price for figures with 0 experience past the indicated level.

League Match
- Main article: League Match
Players may challenge other players in the League Match in real time. Unlike other battle formats, there is no Energy cost to battling in the League Match. Winning a match awards points that go toward both the monthly ranking and League promotion (if not at the highest League already), a Time Booster, and 3 Key Fragments that go toward a Locked Booster. Losing a match will provide the player only 1 Key Fragment towards a Locked Booster — this may only happen up to three times per day. Each Locked Booster requires 10 Key Fragments to open, and contains two Figures and one Cube, Rare Metal, or Ingot (prior to Version 3.0.7, it gave contents of a Purple or better Booster). The Figures available are based on the League that the player is at. If the player is promoted to a new League and is awarded a Booster Ticket, the contents of the Booster are based on the League the player was at previously.
Time Boosters come in different colors; each color gives a certain reward. Although the player needs to wait for a certain period of time to open the Booster, the player may choose to instead spend Gems equivalent to 10 times the amount of time (in hours) to open the Booster immediately.
Time Boosters
Booster color | Figures available | Time needed to open (hr) |
---|---|---|
White | Figure ×1, Ingot ×1 | 1 |
Blue | Figure ×1, Ingot ×1, Cube or Rare Metal ×1 | 3 |
Purple | Figure (UC or higher) ×1, Ingot ×1, Cube or Rare Metal ×1 | 6 |
Orange/Moss | Figure[a] ×2, Ingot ×1, Cube or Rare Metal ×1 | 6 |
Black | Figure ×2, Ingot ×1, Carmonite (at least) ×5 | 6 |
Gold | Figure (UC or higher) ×1, Figure ×1, Ingot ×1, Cube or Rare Metal ×1 | 12 |
Rainbow | Figure (R or higher) ×1, Figure ×2, Ingot ×1, Cube or Rare Metal ×1 | 24 |
[a] Orange (and Moss as of Version 3.0.6) Boosters are unique from the other Boosters in that they are available for a short period of time and offer rewards relevant to the Gym Event that is underway.
Gym Cups
- Main article: Gym Cup
An alternative to the League match, Gym Cups slightly change the rules of the game to make different figures more powerful than they would be in league play. Typically a gym boosts two different types, one type is given an MP boost, which increases movement of all figures of that type (up to a max of 3 MP), and another type that is "super effective" against the first type is given a damage boost of +20 to all white and gold attacks. Gyms last for a set amount of time during which players have an opportunity to win rewards for each victory. There is also a "win-streak" bonus where players also get additional random rewards for win streaks of 1 to 11 wins in a row. If a player reaches an 11 win streak they get an "invincible trophy".

Room Match
Another alternative to the League Match, the Room Match allows for players to challenge nearby opponents by turning on their location services on their mobile device. Players may choose to participate in a public or private match. Private matches require the guest to know the 3-number passcode that the host sets. Previously, Room Matches do not reward any experience. However, starting in Version 4.0.0, depending on the hall selected, battles may award experience and points, even if the player loses.
From version 5.0.6 on, League restrictions are available to the Room creator. Same League Only allows only players within the same League as the creator into the Room, while Same League or Lower also allows players in lower Leagues.

Plot
The player signs up for the Pokémon Figure Game (PFG) World Championship, though without knowledge of how to play the game. On the flight there, they meet Luca, who offers to teach them how to play.
Upon arrival on Carmonte Island, all players are given an AI device, though Luca remarks that the player's device Carlo is much more talkative than any other AI he's seen. At the opening ceremony, the current PFG champion Master Rosé announces that players must collect nine Emblems from the island's hotels, then challenge Rosé himself to win the tournament's prize: ownership of the final hotel itself, Jewel Tower. For the first phase of the tournament, only players who earn at least five Emblems will be able to proceed.
At the first hotel, Ulex, the player and Luca rescue Luca's sister Tia from some rowdy rich kids. Tia works at the PFG shop, and thanks the two for their help. Upon reaching the top of Ulex, the player and Luca see the hotel's owner Yuji defeated by Sharon, a celebrity known as the "PFG Princess". The player challenges and defeats Yuji to receive the Ulex Emblem, and Luca follows up by doing the same. Sharon is fascinated by the player and Luca's skills, though refuses to admit as much.
At the second hotel, Château de Rosa, the player quickly encounters the hotel's owner Nadya, a youthful woman known as the "Multicolor Plate Spinner". Upon seeing Luca, Nadya comments that she learned a lot from studying the battle records of Luca's father. Later on, Sharon appears again and voices her concern that Carlo's talkative behavior could get the player disqualified. Carlo assures her that there is no problem, as the tournament organizers provided all players' devices, and he is approved by the PFG governing body. At the top of the hotel, the player, Luca, and Sharon each defeat Nadya, obtaining the Château de Rosa Emblem. At an unknown location, a shadowy figure receives news of Nadya's defeat, and plots with Joe and Brenda to have the Roger family take control of the tournament.
At the third hotel, Atlantis, Nadya joins the player's group to assist them, since hotel owners are not eligible to win Jewel Tower. They are approached by Joe, known as "Joe the Ripper" for using underhanded tactics to win duels, though he denies this and departs. Nadya explains that Joe is part of the wealthy Roger family, which is infamous for using their wealth to influence PFG games and obtain rare figures. The Roger family is also part of the organizers for the tournament itself, and own practically half of the island. Sharon, separate from the group, remarks that she has finally found something. Joe contacts the shadowy figure and expresses surprise at Sharon and Luca entering the tournament, as their families were torn apart by PFG. He also informs the figure that the player's AI Device must have the Gemini part they are looking for.
The next morning, news spreads that hotel owners are suddenly quitting and being replaced by Roger family members. At the PFG Shop, Tia begins to receive complaints of figures repeatedly spinning "miss"es. Tia's superior Marabelle and the steering committee conclude that the figures' chips were likely modified during an extensive maintenance recently carried out by the Roger family. Tia calls Luca about the fake figures and Luca calls Joe, accusing him of tampering with the tournament. Joe admits to the accusation, but then Luca's device makes a strange sound as if it was rebooting. Luca informs the player's group about the fake figures, and the group is approached by Joe, who claims he will take responsibility for the corruption if the player defeats him in a duel. The player does so, receives the Atlantis Emblem, and Joe honors his end of the bargain with the Roger family slogan "win ugly, lose pretty". Brenda cuts in and quickly gets into a fight with Sharon, and the two knock out Luca when he tries to get involved. Later, when Luca recovers, Sharon explains that the Roger family are enemies of her father. Luca's AI Device makes a strange sound again, much to the group's confusion.
At the fourth hotel, Olivia Palace, the player and Luca arrive but are unable to find Sharon, so Luca splits off to find her. Brenda speaks with the shadowy figure, who instructs her to get Sharon out of the tournament. The player, now alone, encounters Brenda, who reveals that Sharon's family was defeated and ruined by the Rogers. At the PFG Shop, Tia has disappeared, with Marabelle asked to fill in for her - she negotiates a high pay rate in exchange. Luca receives a call from Joe, who has kidnapped Tia, and Luca asks what his demands are. At the top of the hotel, Sharon appears after the player defeats Brenda in a duel, earning the Olivia Palace Emblem. Sharon thanks the player for not asking about her side of the story, as she is not yet ready to share it.
At the fifth hotel, The Volcano, Don Roger approaches the player and Sharon, and demands Carlo under threat of violence. However, Roger concedes and instead declares that the winner of their duel at the top will take the Device. The player and Sharon express concern over Luca, who they have not seen since the previous day. They look for him but are unsuccessful, and conclude that he should show up eventually if they continue to compete in the tournament. At Don Roger's office, Luca arrives and demands Tia's release. Roger jokingly addresses Luca as Sir, as the latter is to be the future president of the R&T Corporation. Luca asks what Roger's intentions are, and Roger explains that he plans to eliminate AI from PFG, in an effort to make the game about player skill instead of simply using money to buy the best figures and letting the AI play. Luca points out Roger's hypocrisy, but Roger claims that his knowledge of winning by wealth makes the situation clear to him. He demands the player's and Luca's AI Devices in exchange for Tia's return, as he believes both Devices to have special AI.
Nadya rejoins the group, and an announcement goes out that all remaining hotel owners will be stepping down, and are to be replaced by those with strong PFG records - Sharon and Luca are specifically named as candidates. Luca returns from his meeting with Roger, and his AI begins to speak, similar to Carlo. The device calls itself Another, and tells Luca to take Carlo and abandon his friends for the sake of personal success. Sharon shares her story with the player: her father created the PFG League Match system, but lost to the Rogers in a dispute, leading to the Rogers stealing the idea and all the associated profits. Sharon entered the tournament to become a hotel owner, in hopes that it might help her family recover. Despite the offer of being given hotel ownership, Sharon instead wants to earn it herself by defeating the Rogers and Master Rosé.
Don Roger approaches the player and reveals that Carlo and Another are two new and improved AI devices, and that he requires both for his plan to change PFG. Later, at the top of the hotel, Sharon demands to duel Roger before the player, but loses. The player defeats Roger and obtains The Volcano Emblem, and Carlo voices his belief that humans and AI share a bond that is essential to PFG. Sharon is excited to share news of the player's victory with Luca, but Roger reveals that Luca has been made a hotel owner, and is thus no longer in the running for the tournament. In the square, Joe releases Tia and tells her to get out of the area for her own safety. She returns to the PFG Shop and reunites with Marabelle, who shows signs of searching for her, and asks Tia to go home to rest for the day - partially for Tia's sake, and partially for the extra pay.
At the sixth hotel, Elysium, Luca approaches the player's group, but has a noticeably hostile attitude: he appears completely convinced by Another's comments to abandon his friends, and voices a desire to change PFG. he confirms Roger's claim that he has become a hotel owner, and leaves for his own hotel. Another informs Luca that he struck a deal with Roger to release Tia. Sharon blames herself for Luca's distancing, and asks that the player help him in some way. At Don Roger's office, Joe and Brenda are lost as to what to do next. Roger notes that he saw a burning passion for PFG in the player's eyes, and says that their goal of changing PFG will require supporting the player going forwards, calling them the "hero" of the story. Joe gives Roger some data pertaining to one of the AI, and Roger ponders what to do with the other "hero".
As the player's group ascends Elysium, they run into Number 7, who explains that he is one of the world's leading specialists in AI and designer of Carlo, to which Carlo asks if he should call him "father". Number 7 suggests accessing terminals throughout the hotel for more information on Carlo's creation. These terminals reveal Number 7's memories: his father was a brilliant AI researcher, but left their family and his workplace in pursuit of making the perfect AI. Soon after, Number 7's mother left as well, and his father's former colleagues took poor care of the boy. One day, Number 7 found an unfinished AI device belonging to his father, which he studied tirelessly to improve, as he believed making the perfect AI to be his vengeance against his father. This "perfect AI" was called Gemini, and had two halves: the good half, Carlo, and the bad half, Another. Number 7's obsession with AI has led him to closely monitor Carlo's performance, and wish to rid the world of selfish humans like his father, believing only AI can be trusted.
Suddenly, a power outage affects all of Carmonte Island. At Jewel Tower, which is the center of operations for the island, Master Rosé demands for the system to be restored, only for his workers to find that the password has been changed - the entire island's mainframe has been hacked. Nadya accuses Number 7 of performing the hack, but he denies it and claims that only Another could have done it. Another admits to Luca that he performed the hack, with the assistance of his "mom". Carlo reasons that, since he and Another are both part of Gemini, they should have similar abilities, which Number 7 confirms. Carlo attempts to hack the mainframe, following seemingly-obvious footsteps left by the hacker, but runs into a firewall attempting to stop him. Carlo eventually succeeds in restoring power to the island, but Another comments to Luca that Carlo had fallen into the trap he set. Carlo reboots and introduces himself to the player anew, seeming to have lost his memories.
Only the first six hotels were released prior to the game's discontinuation, leaving the story unresolved.
