How to install and play ‘Pokémon Masters’ using the APK and a VPN

A couple of months ago, DeNa announced that she was developing a new Pokémon game from The Pokémon Company. This game has turned out to be ‘ Pokémon Masters ‘, a title that we have already been able to test for ourselves and that points out ways. However, accessing it is not exactly easy since it is currently only available in Canada and Singapore.

Simply put, we cannot download the APK file and run it as we normally would with an APK without geo-restriction. But as they say, “there is an app for that.” Playing ‘Pokémon Masters’ before its global deployment is possible, just use a VPN , configure it correctly and follow the steps that we expose below.

How to download ‘Pokémon Masters’ on Android

As we said before, ‘Pokémon Masters’ is only available in Canada and Singapore , so we will have to transport ourselves there in some way, even if it is virtually. For this we will use a VPN. If you already pay for one, great, you can use it. If not, we have used the free version of Tunnel Bear .

Before you start you must bear in mind one thing: you will have to download 389 MB of files when you start the game . What does that mean? That free VPNs may fall short of you. Even so, we have had enough with the 500 MB that Tunnel Bear offers to download everything and play the first level. With that said, let’s get started:

  • Activate the WiFi.
  • Download the APK of ‘Pokémon Masters’, but do not install it .
  • Download Tunnel Bear from the Google Play Store.

The first thing is to configure the VPN correctly.

When you have Tunnel Bear installed, open it and search for Singapore . It’s one of the two countries that Pokémon Masters currently works in, so we’ll have to connect from there. Broadly speaking , Tunnel Bear will connect us to a server in Singapore which, in turn, will connect to the game’s servers. Only then can we access. The instructions are in the upper screenshots.

  • Once you have configured the VPN, look for the previously downloaded APK and install it on your mobile. For this you will have to use a file manager and, if you have not done so previously, give it permission to install applications from unknown sources.
  • When the installation is complete, and having made sure that you are connected to Singapore, open the game.

Automatically, ‘Pokémon Masters’ will take you to an initial setup screen where it will ask you where you are. It is important that you select Singapore . It will also ask if you want to sign in with your Nintendo account. Our recommendation is that you do not do it to avoid possible bans. After all, if you like the game, you’ll want to be able to access it when it launches in your country, so better not link your account for now.

Files must be downloaded while connected to the VPN.

Once the configuration is complete, you will have to download the files it asks for . It is not possible to continue without doing so. We have not had a problem using the WiFi network and the VPN, but keep in mind that free VPNs usually have a data limit. As we said, with the free 500 MB of Tunnel Bear you will have enough for the first download, but not for the second (which will arrive after passing the first level).

Here are the beginnings of ‘Pokémon Masters’.

Once everything is downloaded, the game will start . You will have to customize your character, choose a name and proceed to the adventure always, always, always connected to the VPN. If you try to access without it, the game will tell you that the servers are under maintenance and you will not be able to access.

According to the App Store file, the launch of ‘Pokémon Masters’, at least in Spain, is scheduled for August 29 , that is, a month just from the moment these lines are written.
