THE GAME YOUR COMPANION
THE BOTTOM SCREEN

A live companion that reads your game

Everything is read straight from the game as you play, and drawn in its own menu style. No typing, no alt-tabbing to a wiki.

PARTY

Your team in your game's own party screen. Tap a Pokémon for its stats, moves, IVs and EVs.

BAG

Every pocket, with the game's item icons and descriptions.

BATTLE

Opens by itself in a fight: every matchup, the best pick, the foe's whole team.

MAP

The region map with you on it. Tap a place to name it, or jump to any town.

DEX

Seen and caught marks, with full entries: types, stats, abilities and dex text.

GUIDE

Hints first, answers on a second tap: what's here, the next boss, evolutions.

CARD

Your trainer card, drawn exactly like the game's, front and back.

STATES

Ten save-state slots with screenshots, and undo.

PARTY

Your whole team, always in view

HP, levels and status for every Pokémon, in your game's own party screen. Tap one for its summary: stats and moves, EXP to the next level, and what it's weak to or resists.

STATS shows its exact IVs and EVs, nature and Hidden Power.

IN BATTLE

Know every matchup at a glance

When a fight starts the companion jumps to BATTLE. FIGHT shows each move's effect on the foe, INFO both Pokémon with the foe's weaknesses, and SUGGESTIONS the best Pokémon and move for this fight.

On FireRed and Emerald the buttons play the battle for you: fight, switch or run without reaching for the controls.

THE TOP SCREEN

A Game Boy player built for Pokémon

mGBA under the hood plays Game Boy, Color and Advance, tuned for the long grind: fast where it's dull, normal where it matters.

SMART FAST-FORWARD

Full speed on the road, normal speed in menus and on the map. Battles stay fast.

FF MUSIC

The song keeps its normal tempo while the game runs fast. No chipmunks.

SHADERS

An LCD grid, scanlines or a CRT, plus the colours the GBA's screen really showed.

STATUS BAR

Game, place, money, clock and battery in a strip above the game.

CONTROLS

Remap every button and hotkey. Touch controls when no pad is connected.

ACHIEVEMENTS

RetroAchievements while you play, with the game's own level-up fanfare.

Made for dual-screen handhelds. On one screen the companion sits beside the game, or under it on a phone held upright.

Any Game Boy, Color or Advance game plays; the companion needs one of these, in the exact version listed. MAP partly = place names without the map picture. BATTLE partly = the battle panes work but haven't been checked in every kind of battle.

WHAT'S NEW

PokeDaisy 1.1.4

8 OCT 2026 · updates install from inside the app

  • No more screen tearing. Scrolling in a game (walking around a town, for example) could show a line across the screen, with half of one frame over half of the next. The game screen now only shows finished frames, as RetroArch does.
  • Steady fast-forward music works in Pokémon Heart and Soul. It used to fall back to sped-up sound there. Both of its soundtracks are recorded, so whichever one you play with keeps its normal speed in fast-forward. The first time you open the game, its music is recorded in the background.

Free, no ads, nothing locked

If PokeDaisy made a playthrough better, you can buy me a coffee. It's completely optional and doesn't unlock anything; it helps cover the time that goes into mapping new games and ROM hacks.

Bug reports, game requests and a star help just as much:
