Pokete is a small terminal-based game in the style of a very popular and old game by Gamefreak. Imagine that you’re a Pokete Trainer and you travel around the world to catch/train as many Poketes as possible with the ultimate goal of becoming the best trainer. First of all you get a starter Pokete (Steini), that you can use to fight battles with other Poketes. Use W, A, S and D to move around. When entering the high grass (;), you may be attacked by a wild Pokete. By pressing 1 you can choose between the attacks your Pokete has (as long their AP is over 0). By pressing the according number, or navigating with the * cursor to the attack and pressing Enter you can use the attack selected. The wild Pokete will fight back, but you can kill it and gain XP to level up your Pokete. If you would like to catch a wild Pokete, you must first weaken it and then throw a Poketeball. With a bit of luck, you can catch it and have it fight for you.
