PokéSurvivor saves, sync and account recovery

You do not need a manual login to save on this site. Starting creates or restores an anonymous account, keeps a browser copy and syncs permanent progress to the cloud. Bind Google before changing devices or clearing browser data.

Save without registering

Press to start and play normally. The game first restores an existing session in this browser; otherwise it creates an anonymous identity and assigns a public nickname. You can save and submit eligible leaderboard records without entering an email, password or nickname yourself.

Permanent progress includes your collection, shiny Pokémon, coins, tickets, regional pity, per-Pokémon upgrades, achievements and completed-run statistics. It is written to the browser first, then synced with this site’s Firebase save.

Choosing your first partner and completing a run are cloud checkpoints. Sync is not a write on every frame: accepted cloud writes have a minimum spacing of about 65 seconds, and other changes may remain queued. Check the visible status instead of assuming every browser copy is already on the server.

If browser storage is blocked, the game warns that a local copy cannot be kept. Open Settings → Account to inspect the account type and cloud status.

Protect this same save with Google

  1. Stay in the anonymous account whose progress you want to keep.
  2. Choose Protect account with Google in the menu or Settings → Account.
  3. Choose your Google account in the browser’s sign-in window.
  4. After successful binding, the game keeps the same nickname, collection, progress and ranking identity.
  5. On another device, explicitly switch to the existing account and sign in with that linked Google account.

Binding is optional for playing, saving in this browser and entering this site’s leaderboard. It gives you a recovery method that an unbound anonymous account does not have.

If the selected Google account already belongs to another game account, the game keeps your current save intact. Choose another Google account or deliberately switch to the existing account; it does not merge the two saves. Do not clear the current browser data to resolve this conflict.

Missing progress: check the identity before clearing anything

  1. Confirm that you are on survivorpoke.com. The original game at pokesurvivor.com uses separate accounts and records.
  2. Use the same browser and browser profile where you played. A private window, another browser or a different embedded browsing context can hold another session.
  3. Check the account type and nickname in Settings. A new anonymous nickname can mean a different identity, rather than deletion of the old server save.
  4. If you previously bound Google, explicitly sign into that linked account. Existing name-and-password accounts can use their original credentials.
  5. If the status is pending or offline, keep the browser data and reconnect before expecting the latest changes on another device.

An unbound anonymous account cannot be recovered from its public nickname alone. Clearing browser data or switching accounts can remove the local login handle even when a server record still exists. Protect the account first.

Does refreshing restore the current battle?

No. Account saves preserve permanent progress and completed results, not a resumable live battle. Finish or leave the run through the game before reloading. Run-stat cards, temporary move levels and the live battlefield are not restored as a continuation.

This site does not import or merge the original author’s saves, collections or scores. Opening the complete Wiki at poke-survivor.org is safe as a separate reference task, but its original-game account instructions do not replace this site’s anonymous-save flow.

You can delete your account through the game’s account controls. Read privacy and account deletion for which features use your data and which local copies may remain.
