GAMES WE LOVE

Pokémon Smile

Brush teeth, save Pokémon!

“Clean your teeth and you can rescue a Pokémon.” That seems like a pretty good deal, right? Fight off cavity-causing bacteria in Pokémon Smile, and you’ll rescue the Pokémon they’re holding hostage!

What we love: Using the front-facing camera of your iPhone or iPad, the game can monitor your brushing speed and positioning, guiding children to ensure all gnashers receive the requisite polish.

Brushing your teeth is so much more fun when there are Pokémon involved.

Don’t miss: Want to get competitive with your teeth brushing? (Yes, it’s a thing.) Add additional user accounts to your device under Save Data on the Settings screen and see who can fill up their Pokédex the fastest.

Meet the creator: Pokémon Smile is brought to you by The Pokemon Company, known for hits including Pokémon Sleep and Pokémon TCG Pocket.
