This is a known issue for many years, and the titel basically explains it. Playing with a controller is a rather saddening experience. ://

True, the playability of PRO decreases if its not on a PC/Macbook where one have access to a mouse and keyboard to control actions.

And even on PC/Macbook, its playability rate is limited because it lacks a lot of handy shortcut buttons or the possibiility to add your own. But, this game was never meant to be mainstreamed on a phone or other playable platforms, but they added it anyway, in a state that is barely playable nonetheless. And I doubt we'll see any major changes to it in the close or distant future, a lot of other important projects to complete before controller support, I suppose.

Well, I am actually playing on pc but sometimes I just want to lay back and play with a controller 

 

Yes what should be made possible is that when you play with a controller you should be able to switch with the Stick between Fight - pokemon - Item and Run/Surrender in combat and select those options with A Or anykey. Like it is on an Gameboy, Nintendo etc.

+1, playing with a controller could, could be fun.
