Building Daily Red Pokemon: A Daily Battle Against Red
I’ve been working on Daily Red Pokemon, an unofficial browser game built around a simple idea: what if a classic Pokémon battle felt like a daily puzzle?
Each day, players receive a team of six level-100 Pokémon and one official attempt to defeat Red. Everyone playing on the same local calendar date gets the same team. You can inspect your Pokémon, choose a lead, and decide when to attack or switch. Red opens with Pikachu, but the first decision is yours.
I wanted the daily attempt to matter without making the game hard to explore. That’s why there is also unlimited practice. The game is free, runs in a modern browser, and requires no account. Official battle progress is saved on your device, so you can resume after refreshing the page.
Battles follow Generation III mechanics, including the type-based physical and special damage split. Once a battle ends, players can share a result without revealing the moves they made.
I’m especially interested in whether the first battle is easy to understand. Is choosing a lead clear? Do the attack and switch controls feel comfortable on a phone? Feedback on those details would help me improve the game.
