New Willow App Aims To Make You The Best At Pokemon Go

As you may well already know, having a powerful lineup of Pokemon at your disposal is only half the battle when becoming a master Pokemon trainer. It's also about knowing the strengths and weaknesses of many Pokemon, so you can adapt your methods accordingly.

It's a cause that Silph Company believes in, and that belief has driven the team to create a new app called Willow (via TechCrunch). Willow is at its foundation a Pokedex, but rather than just giving you the name, type, and ability of the creature, it also tells you what works best against it and what doesn't, as well as how rare a Pokemon is, how many candies it needs to evolve, and a guide as to what kinds of Pokemon are produced by certain types of eggs.

It's a one stop shop for Pokemon information, and that was the goal for Scientist Beau and the team at Silph.

"We built Willow as a solution for those familiar with Professor Oak's Pokédex invention. As we research and learn about Pokémon type advantages, we may add more data about types as we want to arm trainers with the necessary information on how to defeat their opponents in Gyms around the region."

"Willow represents a massive shift in product at Silph. This is just one of our new software applications aimed for trainers' mobile devices," said Joshua, a leading scientist at Silph Company. "We're very proud to add important information and functionality to devices people already own."

To add Willow to your Pokemon repertoire, it will only cost you $0.99, and you can download it here for iOS.
