PokéMate is a mobile phone game developed by Square-Enix and released in 2006. The game allowed players to capture Pokémon, chat with other players, and take care of their Pokémon in a virtual pet simulator mode. New players only receive 10 Pokéballs and a random Pokémon to start. However, a "formal service edition" was released for a monthly fee of 210 yen to get more Pokéballs, Pokémates, and media within the app.[1]

The chatroom feature allowed different players' Pokémon to sign messages between two players. This aspect of the game worked similarly to email.
