To run away from the Pokémon and end the encounter, tap the icon in the top-left corner. The Pokémon will still be present on the map in the case you change your mind. The toggle in the upper-right corner controls whether AR mode will be enabled. When enabled, the Pokémon will appear in the real world as shown through the camera on your device. The Pokémon's name and its Combat Power (CP) will appear above the Pokémon.

The Bag icon in the bottom-right corner allows you to access items. [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] make the Pokémon easier to catch, and using {{DL|Poké Ball|Great Ball}}s, {{DL|Poké Ball|Ultra Ball}}s, and [[Master Ball]]s increase the chance of catching a wild Pokémon. The Camera icon above it lets you take pictures of the wild encounter.

If you can't see the Pokémon, try turning off AR mode or tilting your device up and down until you find the Pokémon. Touch and hold the Poké Ball. A target ring will appear in front of the Pokémon; its color shows your chance of catching it: green for an easy Pokémon to catch, orange for intermediate, and red for extremely difficult. When the ring is at its smallest size, throw the Poké Ball at the Pokémon by swiping up on the screen and lifting your finger. If you hold the Poké Ball and drag it in a circular motion, the Poké Ball will go on a curved path towards the Pokémon. If you miss or if the Pokémon escapes, throw another Poké Ball at the Pokémon.
