A Pokémon's type is indicated by the symbol under its PokéEne. Its type determines what move types it will be weak against or resistant to in battle. The types featured in Pokémon Tretta are the same as those found in the main series Pokémon games, as well as their individual strengths and weaknesses. The first expansion does not feature all types, but it is likely all will be covered as more expansions are released. The type symbols used in Pokémon Tretta are based on those from Pokémon Battrio.

Upon starting Battle Mode, the player can then place up to three Tretta in each of the niches on the green scanning area in the center of the lower section of the console. If the player does not have three Tretta, rental Pokémon will be used to make the deficit. If the player has any special Pokémon Battrio bridge pucks featured in the ''{{Battrio|Legendary & Mirage Shining Victory}}'' expansion, they can also be placed face down and used in place of a Tretta. The player has 30 seconds to select their Pokémon and confirm their choice by pressing one of the two buttons.

If the player has any special Pokémon Battrio bridge pucks featured in the ''{{Battrio|Legendary & Mirage Shining Victory}}'' expansion, they can also be placed face down and used in place of a Tretta. Grouping Tretta by their tile color also activates the '''Home Power''' bonus, which gives each Pokémon a small HP boost. The player has 30 seconds to select their Pokémon and confirm their choice by pressing one of the two buttons.


The player's three Pokémon then go up against the three encountered in Search Mode in a three round battle. At the start of each round players can cycle between their Pokémon by using the dial on the upper section of the console, with each one displaying its type matchup against the three opponent Pokémon. The player has 19 seconds to confirm their choice. The faster a Pokémon is selected, the better the Poké Ball bonus a player will receive as indicated by the circular screen on the right side of the console. Bonus Poké Balls earned in this way are stacked on the right side of the main screen.

From the ''{{Tretta|Search for the Legendary Pokémon!}}'' expansion onwards, Pokémon may have more than one move. Players with those that do will be prompted to select which move they wish to use by using the dial to cycle between them. Pokémon with multiple moves may also attack again if member(s) of their party are unable to battle.


Between the selected Pokémon and the three opponent Pokémon, the one with the highest Speed stat will attack first. When it is the turn of the player's selected Pokémon, a damage roulette will appear on the semicircular screen on the bottom of the upper section. The player has 8 seconds to stop the roulette by pressing one of the two buttons. The chosen value is then added to the Pokémon's base attack for the current round. Possible attack bonuses range from +05 to +50. The selected Pokémon then executes its attack against all three opponent Pokémon. The damage dealt to each is the difference between the base attack of the selected party Pokémon (plus any attack bonuses or type advantages/disadvantages) and the base defense of the opposing Pokémon. When attacking and defending, the game will also prompt the player to press the two buttons on the lower section as quickly as possible to increase the likelihood of a small attack or defense bonus.

Tretta Reports allow players to select a male or female avatar, input a nickname, and an age in years. After each game the Tretta Report keeps track of and awards points for various accolades, broken down into three categories. '''Discovery Completion''' records different Pokémon encountered in Battle Mode, including [[form differences]]. '''Pokémon Completion''' records any Pokémon caught in Get Mode. Unlike Discovery Completion, class differences between Pokémon count as separate entries. '''Pokémon Tretta Completion''' records the physical Tretta obtained via Get Mode or used in Battle Mode, effectively acting as an in-game checklist for each expansion. Bonus points are also awarded for forming like chains, such as obtaining different forms of the same Pokémon.

These points are kept track on Point Cards in game, represented by stamps. Filling a Point Card with stamps earns the player a medal, and effectively an increase in rank. Moving to the next rank presents a new more challenging Point Card to complete. Medals are also awarded for other actions, such as earning 1000 points in one session. After points have been awarded, players with smart phones can take an image of the supplied QR code and upload it via the Pokémon Tretta website to view National Rankings.
