Pokémon Smile is a free app for Android and iOS devices. It is a spin-off mobile game in the Pokémon series. The game uses an AR system to teach children how to brush their teeth. It was released on June 17, 2020.

## Gameplay

The game uses the camera of the device it is being played on for an AR system, which is used to play the game. Bacteria appear in the player's mouth and attack Pokémon. By brushing their teeth, the player is able to rescue the Pokémon. At the end, the game allows the player to attempt to catch one of the Pokémon.[2] After catching Pokémon, they can be leveled up.[3] The player may also earn other rewards, such as hats and stickers.[2] The time spent brushing can be set between one and three minutes.[4] Each day, the game can notify users up to three times to remind them to brush their teeth.[5]

The game will sometimes fail to recognize a player's brushing. According to The Pokémon Company, a colorful toothbrush in a bright room usually solves the problem.[6]

## Release

The game was announced during a Pokémon Presents presentation on June 17, 2020, and made available later that day.[1] The game received its first major update in November 2021, adding several new hats and four new Pokémon.[7] The second major update to the game was released in June 2022. It added over 100 Pokémon, including all remaining Pokémon from Pokémon Gold and Silver that were not already in the game.[8]
