I don't get do you just catch them?
No storyline, or battles against the Pokemon bosses
It was good fun until I realised there is no story, you don't really battle and the fighting is not turn based. A lot of potential in the game though
I mentioned about battling wild pokemon on a facebook post about it and got slated because "It's not going to be like the games!" apparently.
The whole point of it at the moment is to walk around, catch the same pokemon over and over until fully evolved, then go to a gym, quick battle, rinse and repeat.
It's an overly basic beta at the minute IMO, they need to add 1v1 battles into wild pokemon, so don't give you the option of using a team, just let you pick one of your pokemon whose at a similar level to the one you're facing, if you lose then the pokemon runs, if you win then you get the chance to capture it.
It'd make it far more interesting and fun and also give people more of a reason to go out looking for the same pidgey you've caught 20 times, because it'll help grow your pokemon quicker and make for more interesting gym battles.
They also need to explain the battle system properly aswell, at the minute, all you do is tap apparently and that's it, no thought in it at all.
It's a glorified fitness app at the minute.
