Review summary

Reviewers praise Ketchup for Poké as a beautiful, fast, and deeply informative Pokédex companion with solid navigation and catch-tracking. They frequently cite its polished UI and breadth of data beyond a standard Dex. The main drawbacks are a paywall for full Dex access (Ketchup+), and feature gaps like per-game/regional dex, shiny sprites/alternate forms, and generation-specific move lists. Some users also note the free version is Gen 1–restricted. Overall, it's highly regarded for design and utility, with requests centered on expansion of game-specific content and pricing.

Pros

Beautiful, polished UI/UX that many reviewers call the best-looking Pokédex app.
Deep, well-organized data with quick access to types, moves, and matchup information.
Useful tracking of caught/needed Pokémon, making it a strong companion during games.
Extra features beyond a Pokédex (e.g., daily Pokémon guesses and extensive data).
Ketchup+ full access is worth it for most users who want all generations.

Cons

Paywall/price for full Dex and paying to sort by caught vs. not caught.
Lack of per-game or regional dex support; can't view regional dex for a specific game easily.
Missing shiny sprites and alternate forms; requests for more sprites and forms.
Free version limited to Gen 1; limits the experience for new users.

2025-12-28	fl*****	its like bulbapedia but simplier, smoother, and overall feels more like a pokedex than a wiki which is totally awesome. i just wish there was an option to see the shiny sprites of the pokemon

2025-06-08	ch*****	I love the idea of the app, and it is really helpful. I get that you need to make money some how, but I feel that it should be different. My suggestion is that you give access to all Pokemon , the ketchup + gives you separate sex’s for each game. I would buy it for a scarlet dex!

2025-04-30	Gr*****	I like this love, it has everything needed for anything, sure it won’t read out the Pokémon descriptions but it’s still amazing and holds more than a normal Pokédex, like daily “Who’s that Pokémon” games and way to figure out what types are more effective against others. Even though it cost 10$ for all Pokémon to be available it’s still worth it. I do think there should be a map update, it would be cool if you can see the maps for every Pokémon generation, helping you navigate. But it’s a great app and I highly recommend it

2025-03-29	Lu*****	I absolutely love this app, I especially love how it keeps track of mons I’ve caught/ need to catch, however the feature feels a little pointless when I can’t actually see the full regional dex for a specific game. Maybe add a way to keep track of the pokedex from specific games

2025-02-01	Ri*****	This app is clearly made by a developer who understands iOS and respects the operating system defaults. A few questions I have are: 1) Is there a development plan for the app? - Would be great to have a bit better Pokédex experience with tracking Pokémon on a per game’s pokedex level. Currently the app is sort of like a Pokédex for Pokémon you have in your Pokémon home I’d say. I’d like to track what Pokémon I have in my home but also on a per game basis. 2) Will new games be added when released? 3) Can the app be enabled to be installed on macOS?

2024-10-15	ma*****	Probably the best option for a dex app on the App Store right now! One thing I would REALLY love to be added is the option to keep track of specific regional dexes for different games with their respective number orders. A great use for this would be to pull up the regional dex for a specific game so you can organize your boxes or keep track of what you’re missing when trying to fill up the dex for more than one game. Having some sort of party feature would be amazing as well. Thanks for making this great app available!

2024-08-26	Jo*****	The app functions just like you would hope a Pokédex app would. It is the perfect companion app on your Pokémon adventures! I use it primarily while playing pokemon games on my handhelds. The iPhone and iPad support is great. I wish the app had support to be on the Mac. Maybe in the future? Otherwise, no complaints at all.

2024-06-20	La*****	Love this app, and as an advid pokemon lover I would love if there would be more pokemon to guess a day or a separate section where you can just guess pokemon all you want!
