This Pokémon has a violent and selfish nature. If it doesn't feel like listening, it can completely ignore its trainer's instructions.

Touch, follow and join the game!

Discover a new way to interact with your favorite Nintendo character. When you touch the figure to the NFC touch point on the Wii U GamePad, Joy-Con, the bottom of the New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL handhelds, or the special device for older handheld consoles from the Nintendo 3DS family while playing a game, data is transferred to the game, which you can use in many ways. In addition, when playing some games, the data in your figure will be further written, so you can create truly unique amiibo figures.

Join a lot of games!

You can use amiibo figures in many different games - and the style in which they can be used depends on the game! New characters are released regularly from many different game titles. For a complete list of compatible amiibo figures for Nintendo titles, visit nintendo.com/amiibo/compatibility.

Compatibility with New Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 3DS/2DS

You can also use amiibo figures when playing games on handheld consoles! The New Nintendo 3DS has built-in NFC technology, which allows you to connect an amiibo figure to a game by simply touching it to the bottom touch screen. Special accessories are available for use with Nintendo 3DS and 2DS.
