What is PokeClicker?

PokeClicker (written PokéClicker) is a free, fan-made idle game about Pokémon that runs in your browser. You click to defeat wild Pokémon on each route, throw Poké Balls to catch them, and every Pokémon you catch makes your clicks and attacks stronger.

As your team grows you beat gym leaders, clear dungeons, move on to new regions and unlock more systems: breeding to raise stronger Pokémon, a berry farm, quests, achievements and the Battle Frontier. Much of it keeps going while you leave the tab open, so it is a game you check in on rather than play in one sitting.

It is open source, made by volunteers, and has no ads. It is not affiliated with Nintendo or The Pokémon Company. There is no account: your save lives in your browser, and you can download a backup of it.
