Pocket Mortys, also known as Rick and Morty: Pocket Mortys, is a Rick and Morty game based on the Pokémon video game series. It was slated to be released on January 14, 2016, but was released a day earlier. It has an official Discord Server which you can join by clicking here.[1]
Plot[]
Throughout the game, the player controls Rick. The game starts in Rick's garage when Mysterious Rick enters through a portal and challenges the player to a Morty Battle. After defeating him, the player must exit through a portal that takes them to the Council of Ricks, where their portal gun is confiscated. To get it back, the player must defeat the six head Ricks. In order to fight them, the player must first fight Ricks from other dimensions and acquire their badges. After the player defeats them, the last council member turns out to be replaced by Mysterious Rick, who has captured the entire council. After the player defeats him, they will have the goal to catch (capture) each type of Morty.
Concept[]
The concept of the game was taken from the popular "Pokémon" (Pocket Monsters in Japan) franchise. The object of the game is to collect Mortys, battle others (mainly Ricks), and earn badges.
Considering that the Rick and Morty universe is an infinite multiverse, Justin Roiland decided that Pocket Mortys can be considered canon.[2] However, due to Evil Morty being added in the game, the game is technically non-canon, due to Evil Morty breaking through the Central Finite Curve in the Season 5 finale, “Rickmurai Jack”, and in the game, he appears in his spacesuit from the episode.
Battling[]
Players can battle each other in campaign and multiplayer modes. In campaign mode, players can enter a randomly generated dimension using the Citadel portal as each dimension will have wild Mortys, trainers, and a Rick trainer. The goal of the campaign mode is to defeat all Council of Ricks in which you will receive special badges.
In multiplayer mode, you can challenge and battle both bots and other players as each world will have random wild Mortys much like the campaign-mode worlds. You can also add other players to your friend list and battle them without being in the same dimension as them.
Each Mortys have different types of attacks such as standard attacks, debuffs, and buffs and types such as Normal, Rock, Paper, and Scissors. There are special attacks such as Poison, Paralyze, and Absorb that work differently than regular attacks such as giving enemy Mortys extra damage after a turn and preventing them from attacking.
Badges and Trophies[]
Badges are awarded for defeating Ricks and are the primary indicator of progress within the game. They are needed to battle the council member Ricks. They basically resemble a gym badge from Pokémon. You can earn as many badges as you want, considering you are not restricted from re-entering the portal after achieving the needed amount of badges to complete the game (30 badges).
Trophies are awarded for fully completing each series of the Morty Games.

Characters[]
List of Mortys[]
- Main article: List of Mortys (Pocket Mortys)
The Mortys are broken up into three categories: "rock", "paper", and "scissors". Rock has an advantage over scissors, scissors over paper, and paper over rock. Which is based over the zero-sum hand game Rock–paper–scissors. There are only eleven exceptions who are “normal” type (Mortys that are not categorized in any type): Morty (the one the player starts off with), Morticia, Cronenberg Morty, Space Suit Morty, Nightmare Morty, Night Person Morty, Story Lord Morty, King of the Sun Morty, Old Man Hucksbee Morty, No Dinos Morty, and Pocket Morty.
The Morty the player starts off with has a random dimension designation, so theoretically, every player is playing in a different universe.
You can only have up to three different Morty Decks with five Mortys each to use in battles. Players can only use one deck and can select through them at the Morty Day Care building.
Trainers and NPCs[]
- Main article: List of Pocket Mortys trainers and NPCs
Besides the main Council of Ricks, other Ricks make up the Gym battles. And until the last "Council" member is beat, the only way to return to the Citadel is to beat the Gym leader. (The only other way to return is for all the Mortys in your party to get knocked out. In which case Birdperson with pick you up to take you to the Healing Center.)
Custom avatars[]
- Main article: List of Pocket Mortys avatars
On October 26, 2016 in Pocket Morty's 1.7 update introduced "Rick costumes".[5] Custom avatars that can be exchanged at Salesman Rick as playable avatars. Eventually, the avatars were further extended to other characters besides Rick.

Quests[]
While at the Citadel of Ricks, certain NPCs will appear with question marks over their heads. If you talk to them, they will make a vague request for a craftable item. The player then has to determine what item the NPC wants, craft it, and give it to them. Quests carry over between visits to alternate dimensions, and most quests only become available after the player has received a certain number of trophies.
