A new {{wp|Freemium|free-to-start}} smartphone game, Pokémon Co-Master, has been announced for Japan. It will be released in spring 2016. The game will include microtransactions, although their nature has not been specified.

Pokémon Co-Master is a board game of strategy and tactics using Pokémon figures. Players collect and build their own deck from a large range of figures with different characteristics. Each player moves figures, aiming to reach their opponent's goal first. Pokémon Co-Master is a single-player game that features online battles.

In order to give the game the world's strongest AI, {{bp|The Pokémon Company}} has partnered with [https://heroz.co.jp/ HEROZ], whose app [http://shogiwars.heroz.jp/ Shogi Wars] is known for being able to defeat and challenge professional players.

Notably, the game seems to resemble the {{bp|Pokémon Trading Figure Game}}. The field depicted in the trailer has the same layout as the 6-figure Pokémon Trading Figure Game field.
