Step 1: Downloading Sidequest

Start by visiting the Sidequest website at sidequestvr.com. From there, navigate to the “Get Sidequest” section at the top of the page. Download the appropriate version of Sidequest for your PC. If you are unsure which version to choose, the website provides clear instructions to help you make the right selection.

Step 2: Creating an Oculus Developer Account

To proceed with the installation, you will need to create an organization on the Oculus Developer website. Visit developer.oculus.com and sign up to become an Oculus developer. Don’t worry, you don’t actually have to develop anything or pay for anything. This step is necessary to enable developer mode on your Quest 2 headset.

Once you have created your account and accepted the developer agreement, you will be required to verify your account using either a credit card or phone number. Most accounts will be verified after completing this step. Once your account is verified, you will have access to developer mode.

Step 3: Enabling Developer Mode on Quest 2

To enable developer mode on your quest 2, you will need to have the Oculus app installed on your smartphone. Launch the app and make sure your phone’s Bluetooth is enabled. Connect your headset to your phone using Bluetooth. This will allow you to access the developer mode settings on your Quest 2.

In the headset settings, locate the developer mode option and enable it. If you have followed the previous steps correctly, you should now see the developer mode options in the settings.

Step 4: Connecting and Enabling Debugging

Connect your Quest 2 headset to your PC using the USB-C cable. A prompt will appear in your headset asking you to accept USB debugging. Accept the prompt to establish the connection between your headset and PC.

Note that you may use either the official Oculus charging cable or any other USB-C cable for this step. However, it is recommended to use the official cable to ensure a reliable connection.

Step 5: Installing Sidequest and Pokemon VR

Once your headset is connected and debugging is enabled, it’s time to install Sidequest and Pokemon VR. Launch Sidequest on your PC and ensure that your headset is recognized and connected. You should see a green circle indicating the connection status.

To install Pokemon VR, you will need to join the Pokey Mod VR Discord server. The link to the Discord server will be provided in the description. Join the server and accept any necessary rules to gain access.

In the Discord server, navigate to the “Downloads” section and locate the download links for Pokemon VR. Please note that these links will only be accessible from within the Discord server to maintain compliance with copyright.

Download the APK file for Pokemon VR and save it on your PC. In Sidequest, click on the button with a down arrow at the top right corner of the interface. A dialog box will appear, allowing you to select and install the APK file you just downloaded.

Choose the Pokemon VR APK file and click on it to start the installation process. Once the installation is complete, a green bar will appear at the bottom of the Sidequest interface indicating the success of the installation.
