Pokémate

Pokémate was a mobile phone application which allowed players to send messages to other people on the user's friend list or chat with them. Players could select and capture Pokémon to keep in the storage feature of the application. They could also subscribe to the game in order to receive more Pokémates, Poké Balls, and other media. The game was only distributed in Japan. However, it was presented in the United States during the 2006 E3 summit. The service was discontinued in January 2008.
