The game is up in Singapore. If you want to play early download apk, and use VPN in Singapore. You need constant VPN connection to play for now. Only time you can turn off VPN is when downloading the data. Any emulator doesn't work for now.

Basically 10 to 30, it would take 100 round for a 10x pull lol. Dena's style of about rm100 per 10x pull, gonna play this game on f2p slowly i guess.

f2p is ok as you get Serperior and Swanna early on and just put a sweeper like Lucario in the team , then replace with Raichu later on
just enjoy the freebies while it lasts
perhaps later on will have better stuff, who knows
The game is very f2p friendly. If you ignore the gacha there are actually many free units you get each chapter. And you can literally use the free units to clear the game. But yeah gacha being the main point, the gems are kinda low overall, but wait next week tbh. Events could give more gems than doing normal chapters.
I've been playing since soft launch btw.

1: What the fuck they split gem into paid and not paid. Worse thing is you can't enter event and pull 5 * trainers. Only paid gem can. Just.What.The.Fuck.
Never played gacha games? It's normal to have paid gem to do daily discount pulls and guaranteed 5* pulls. Not even sure what you mean you can't enter event when you just need to clear chapter 5 or was it 6 to do the Blue event.
Also yes this game has gem issues. The low gem drops are pretty bad tbh, but I guess it's compensated by 7% rate for gacha pulls. Most gacha games are at 1-3% for 5* rates, this being 7% is really high for a gacha game.

The thing is there is no pull for no guaranteed 5*/free gems. Which is shit. And yes I play not lot but familiar enough with gacha shits. Separate gem into free and paid should not be a thing.
They want you to pay for that guaranteed 5*. Fate Go, Dragalia Lost, Granblue to name a few, all like that one. The paid gacha part is mostly for daily discount 1 pull and 5* guaranteed banner. It's just one time thing btw, and it usually appear once a year or twice a year. It's not new but I guess most who don't play gacha never encountered this. That's why the game has low rating when it shouldn't for me.
They give a lot of free units as well, and some of them are really good like Lucario, Swana, Raichu. I'm playing the game with just the free characters to clear most things which is really possible. My reroll units are Xatu and Dusclop only. Still saving my gems.. it's around 8k gems now, never pulled lol.

I playing FGO, okay the gacha rate is a lie but they don't have no such thing like paid and free gem. You earn gem by play them, if want more you pay. Not like this shit, free gem can't mix with paid and free gem will usage priority first over paid gem.
FGO has paid gem and free gems every once or twice a year. Where you have to use paid gems to get a 5* unit. It's the same thing like Pokemon Master. It's the same for priorities of gems as well. You only get 4* units guaranteed on normal banners with free gems and never a guaranteed 5* unit, unless it's a paid gem banner like below.
I don't know why people are mad about this, it's optional. It's in most gacha games now, especially new one's. Just because you don't know it's there doesn't mean it's not there. This is for those who support the game and want one guaranteed 5* units. If you don't want to pay you can't have it, simple as that. There aren't many gacha games that gives you free 5* units as guaranteed unless you pay. You already get Snivy as a free 5* in this game, and it's top tier unit.

the 7% SSR drop rates in Pokemon Master doesn't mean much to me when we can barely make 2-3 multipulls every month. No very appealing and certainly won't entice me to spend and support.
Yup, it's less exciting that there is little gems to pull. Felt less rewarding, when a gacha games should less us pull more. But I find it good in a way that more people will play it more than play it less to get more gems since you can still earn it by missions and etc.
I've been playing 7 Deadly Sins Gran Cross and you literally get free ssr ticket once a week. A lot of people already got all the units in the game, literally all. It does make the game boring as well if you get everything that you want apparently. We are just spoiled in general. Just take it how it is for me.
It's not really so bad, considering the amount of free units you get in this game. There is a lot of team composition you could make with different sync pair for things to work, but as always people just want the best units to clear easily and what not imo. Normies who play less gacha games seems to like PokeMas so far, only gacha veterans like it less as far as I can tell.
