Pokémon news (April 24th): Pokémon Music Pokédex and more

Pokémon Music Pokédex

Today, The Pokémon Company has revealed yet another app for smart devices, but this time for Android (via Google Play). It’s called Pokémon Ongaku Zuka (lit. Pokémon Music Pokédex), and offers users the possibility to buy music from the mainline Pokémon games (starting with Pokémon Red / Green and onwards). The app itself is free, and comes with 3 free tracks, but additional ones can be purchased for 120 Yen each.

Its features are:

– unlimited playback;
– you can make the music loop;
– special interface inspired by a Pokédex.

Unfortunately, The Pokémon Company didn’t give any release date for this free app.

Here’s two screencaps for this app:
