PokeDoku is a daily Pokémon grid in the style of Immaculate Grid. Each row and column has a category, such as a type, a region or a trait, and you name one Pokémon per square that fits both. Each correct pick shows what share of players chose it, and rarer picks give a lower, better score.
About PokeDoku
PokeDoku brings the Immaculate Grid format to Pokémon. It is made by Doku Games LLC, and players have been posting their daily scores in forum threads since 2023. The site also has an Unlimited mode with grids built from categories you choose, and a Pokémon tic-tac-toe with custom lobbies.
Each day's grid has three column categories and three row categories: types such as Rock, Flying or Bug, regions such as Kanto or Paldea, and traits like evolution stage. For every square you name a Pokémon that fits both its row and its column, picking it from a search list with its sprite. A Pokémon counts for the region it first came from, so Pikachu is Kanto but not Fire. You have nine guesses, shown as PP, for the nine squares, an answer cannot be changed once it is in, and no Pokémon can be used twice in one grid.
After each correct answer the square shows what share of players chose the same Pokémon. Your uniqueness score starts at 900 and drops by each square you fill with a rare pick, so the aim is not only a full grid but one filled with Pokémon few others thought of. You can check your rank against other players.
The daily plays in the browser on a phone or a computer with no account. A free sign-in with Google, Facebook, Apple or Discord adds streaks and stats, a Pokédex of the Pokémon you have used, and the archive of past grids. The game can be played in English, French, German and Italian, and it shows ads.
How to play PokeDoku
- Read the three column categories along the top and the three row categories down the side.
- Tap a square and type the name of a Pokémon that fits both its row and its column.
- Choose it from the list and confirm with Sure? to lock it in; the square shows how many players chose the same one.
- Fill all nine squares with your nine guesses, never using the same Pokémon twice.
- Pick less common Pokémon to bring your uniqueness score down, then compare your rank.

Tips
- Fill the hardest square first, while you still have every Pokémon available.
- Middle evolutions are often rarer picks than the starters or final forms.
- A wrong guess costs a square, so check both categories before you submit.
Questions
What time does PokeDoku reset?
Player guides put the new grid at midnight US Eastern Time. The game page does not state the hour.
How many guesses do I get in PokeDoku?
Nine, shown as PP, one for each square of the grid. A wrong guess still uses one up.
How does the uniqueness score work?
It starts at 900. Each correct answer replaces that square's 100 with the share of players who picked the same Pokémon, so rarer picks give a lower, better score.
Do I need an account?
No. The daily grid plays without one. A free sign-in adds streaks, stats, a Pokédex and the archive of past grids.
Can I play in another language?
Yes. The language menu offers English, French, German and Italian.
