The majority of the game focuses on catching Pokemons.

The process is split into two phases - Pokemon tracking and Pokemon catching.

After clicking the small icon a screen will be displayed.

On it you will find silhouettes of up to 9 Pokemons (there might be less of them).

Under the photo of each Pokemon you will find icons similar to hands.

These icons can have 3 forms:

You must remember that the number of hands changes in real time.

Two items in the game allow you to find the Pokemons easier, with no action needed from you.

These items areIncenseandLure Module.

Incense is bait which is placed on your trainer.

You will also receive a few Lure Modules when reaching new experience levels.

Lure Module is bait used on Pokestops.

Only one Lure Module can be used on each such object and the effect always lasts for 30 minutes.

All that needs to be done is throw the Pokeballs at them until they are captured.

If the movement is tweaked, the Pokeball will be tweaked as well.

For the capturing process to start, the Pokeball must hit the target directly, without touching the ground.

How you throw the ball will also impact how much experience you will receive.
