Why Isn’t Pokémon Revolution Online on Play Store or App Store?

[Headzz]

Dear PRO Developers / Community,

 

I’ve been enjoying Pokémon Revolution Online for a while now, and I just wanted to share a thought that’s been on my mind.

 

This game is incredibly well-developed and has a strong community behind it. The gameplay, graphics, and regular updates make it one of the best fan-made Pokémon MMOs out there. However, one thing I’ve always wondered is—why isn’t PRO available on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store?

 

Putting the game on official mobile stores could really increase its visibility and bring in a lot more players. Right now, many people don’t even know that this amazing game exists. If it was available on app stores, it would reach a wider audience—especially casual mobile players who don’t usually install APKs or sideload apps.

 

I understand there might be legal restrictions or technical challenges, especially with Nintendo’s policies, but I still wanted to express this as a hopeful suggestion. If not full listing, maybe a “lite version” or a safe downloader with permissions could be considered?

 

Thank you to the whole dev team for keeping PRO alive and fun all these years. Whether or not this is possible, I’ll continue supporting the game and recommending it to others.

Hello there @Headzz Firstly, I'd like to thank you for your comments about the game. The PRO Staff team work hard to make the game enjoyable for our players and it is great to see that our work is appreciated.

 

As you mentioned, PRO is a fan-made game based on the Pokemon games. For a fan-made game to make it to the Play Store or App Store, it would require permission from the original IP owners, the Pokemon Company in this case. Due to this being extremely unlikely or dare I say impossible, a PRO release on these platforms would be too. 

 

I'll lock this topic now but if you have any suggestions or questions in the future, don't hesistate to create a new topic. Have a great day!
