Pokémon Rumble Rush - Update
A new update has dropped for Pokémon Rumble Rush on the Play Store brining the game up to Version 1.0.3. This update provides various bug fixes to prevent the game crashing as much, a fix to a glitch where the Pokédex showed Pokémon as not caught despite being caught, and also has the Terms of Service updated.
Edit @ 08:36: This patch does appear to have a game breaking bug where you can't tap any ore in the Refinery screen to remove it or open it. You can delete ore in the waiting area, or check the Challenges Menu and then return to the Ore Refinery which should resolve the situation
