Field notes
PokeChat uses Discord messages as the input layer for a Gen 1-inspired game: each message can trigger a wild encounter, with staff choosing a 1%, 2.5%, or 5% spawn rate. Encounters expire after 20 seconds, while battles and most commands move into direct messages so the server’s main conversation stays uncluttered. The homepage also names shiny hunting, player-run battles, a marketplace, and gym leader battles as part of the surrounding game system.
