Atom Catch Catch

That is the actual name of a new smartphone coming out next month in South Korea. If the game is popular enough over there, it may see a release in 2017 in Japan, North America, and Europe.

That trailer cracks me up. Not sure what mood they were going for there.

[EyeOdyssey]

Well... they had to get their Pokemon clone out there somehow. Even if that means oddly juxtaposing Atom onto it in a way where it almost looks like a joke Photoshop edit. This is the world where Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix exists, so I guess anything goes.
Following the same logic, we should be expecting this to hit the app store soon enough as well.

Well, I'm curious to know more about this. Did the trailer give anyone else a "Man of Steel" vibe?

[Shiyonasan]

A longer trailer for the game has been released, and some YouTube channels have released gameplay video for this game, now called "Atom Catch Catch". It seems to be a simple smartphone game where Atom collects random monsters to fight other monsters. You can also play as Uran, and Leo is one of the random monsters you can use.

In that atom gameplay link, there are at one point either TWO Atom's, or is one Cobalt (riding a bicycle or scooter)?
I see the 2003 version of Uran is there too.

I'm wondering = is Catch Catch a version of the old physical card game Memory, a variation of which I played as a child?

With the multiple Astros, they had words (names?) over them. They're probably just other players who picked him to play as.

Also, the creature on the loading screen is clearly a Kyogre. They might get in trouble for that.

So... Atom wants to be a Pokemon master now?
