Gameplay
The player, a new rookie typist, travels through various routes and areas discovering Pokémon. The game is played with an attaching keyboard. The player will type a Pokémon's name in Rōmaji; the game uses Nihon-shiki romanizations, not the trademarked ones; for example, Tirati-no instead of Chillaccino. Its purpose is to teach Japanese children to type, though older people can enjoy it as well, as levels can get very difficult. As the player types the Pokémon's name in Rōmaji, they will catch it, hence the title. Multipliers are available if Pokémon names are typed fast enough. At the end of several stages, a boss Pokémon may appear, such as the legendary Pokémon Reshiram, Zekrom and Cobalion. There are less than 60 courses which contain the 403 Pokémon available in the game. Each course has its own quirks and targets in order to complete them, as well as three different requirements for medals such as achieving certain point scores, capturing certain Pokémon and not making any typing mistakes.
The game comes with a Bluetooth-enabled QWERTY keyboard that communicates with the game card, though players may also opt for a keyboard on the touch screen.
Story
A new rookie typist, the player, meets Key of the Typing Elite Club, who investigate where Pokémon live by typing their names on a keyboard. With the player's help, the Typing Elite Club manages to reach new areas they have never been to before, and together with Key and her friend Eiji, they investigate 403 Pokémon, including eventually, Reshiram and Zekrom, and gather medals to become a Master Typist.
