POKÉ ARENA 2D
Real-time pixel Pokémon battles in your browser. Dodge, clash beams, evolve mid-fight and win the arena.
What is it?
A fast, top-down arena battler. You steer your Pokémon yourself: no menus, no turns. All in pixel art, all in your browser.

Real-time duels
Move, aim, dash and fire five different moves. Dodge incoming attacks or hold a block.

CLASH!
When two beams meet, they push against each other until one side gives. Power and timing win the clash.

Evolve mid-fight
25 evolution lines. Your Pokémon grows during the match, and some can go Mega.

Megas and ultimates
Every Pokémon has a big finisher. Charge it up and turn the match around.
