Co-op and leaderboards
- Changed New moves (beta): runs played with them no longer go on the leaderboards.
- Fixed Co-op: rejoining a run after leaving the page no longer revives a fainted Pokémon or brings Kecleon’s stall back.
Restarts on iPhone
- Fixed iPhone: fixed a cause of the game restarting when the level-up cards appear.
Compact size
- Fixed Compact size: move effects, numbers and rings now fit your smaller Pokémon (Harden, Swords Dance and the rest).
- Fixed New moves (beta): Harden and Swords Dance fit big Pokémon; with high Range or Area, Wing Attack’s wings no longer fill the screen and the strike keeps its full reach.
Range IVs on the new moves
- Fixed New moves (beta): upgrades that extend the reach no longer wipe out the Range IV bonus.
Connecting to friends in co-op
- Fixed Co-op: friends who stayed on “Connecting to your friends…” or “ICE checking” now connect, on networks that block direct connections too. One run played is enough (it was three).
“Claim all” in Missions
- New When several missions are done, a “Claim all” button collects them all at once. Achievements earned together are collected together too.
The installed app on iPhone
- Fixed In the app installed on the home screen (iPhones above all), an old page sometimes opened with the new code: menus drawn over each other, taps that did nothing and, in the end, a white screen. …
Health bars for the other bosses
- New In Arceus’s Judgment (and whenever more than one boss is up), the bosses the big HUD bar is not following carry their own compact bar over their head, with the name and the health left: …
Chat in the trade window
- New The trade window has its own chat with the other player: type or use a quick phrase without closing it.
Playing a legendary on phones
- Fixed On phones, with a legendary as partner (Zapdos, Articuno…), its ability box in the menu pushed the Play button off the screen. The ability is now a small tag next to the types; its description stays in the Pokédex and in Upgrades.
Auto level on phones
- Fixed On phones, with many cards picked, the Auto level window was squeezed and the “Your order” row spilled over the cards. The window now scrolls and nothing overlaps.
Page refresh on iPhone
- Fixed On iPhone, dragging down over the level-up cards (the finger still moving from the joystick) made Safari refresh the page mid-run. That gesture no longer moves the page (bug #0191).
Titan warnings and beams
- Fixed In the Titan arenas the throne’s floor covered the attack warnings (the orbs, the meteors, the beams): they are now drawn above it and show (bug #0188).
- Fixed Beams (Psybeam, Hyper Beam…) ignored the opacity of your moves and your teammates’: all or nothing. The 80, 40 and 5 % settings now apply to them too.
Joystick that stayed stuck
- Fixed On iPad and iPhone the joystick sometimes stayed on screen and the Pokémon kept running that way (the browser never said the finger had lifted). It now lets go as soon as the finger is gone (bug #0174).
Co-op arenas after being away
- Fixed A teammate away (tab in the background) when the group entered a Titan rift could be left out, or stuck in an empty arena for the rest of the run. The game now falls back in step with the host within seconds: …
A notice when the thief falls
- Changed Defeating Meowth or Gholdengo now shows a notice with what they dropped (coins or the ×10 ticket): late in a run the magnet picked it up before you could see it (suggestion #0202).
Walled-in foes and rescues in rifts
- Fixed The map sometimes closed a square of rocks with no way out and the Pokémon inside stayed trapped for good. After a few seconds of bumping without getting closer they now pass through the rocks until they stand on free ground (bug #0208).
- Fixed The lost Pokémon following you was left behind on entering a rift (it vanished, HP bar and all). It now comes into the arena with you and back to the map, and its patience does not run out while you fight there.
Free pick on big screens
- Fixed On Full HD or bigger screens the window to choose the free Pokémon (and the banner target’s) ran off the screen: no search bar at the top, no Confirm button at the bottom. It fits now and the list scrolls (bug #0210).
IV transfers cost less
- Changed Moving IV points from one Pokémon to another costs 2,000 PokéCoins a point (10,000 before). Bringing everything to your favourite Pokémon, milestones included, is within reach now.
IV milestones
- New The Pokémon on top of the IV pyramid unlocks milestones with its total points: 150 / 350 / 700 / 1,200 / 2,000 points give +4% / +8% / +13% / +19% / +25% to all its IVs but Range and Area. Only it: …
New IV: Luck
- New IV gems can now roll Luck: every point gives +0.2% chance that a finished run’s rewards (coins and tickets) are paid twice. Capped at 10%, or 15% if you own that Pokémon’s shiny. The run summary says whether it hit.
A free pick every 100 pulls
- New Every 100 pulls you choose a Rare Pokémon, every 200 an Epic one and every 500 a Legendary one, from any region. In the gacha, Status tab. Already owned: you get a copy for the PC box.
Chests in Potato mode
- Changed Chests glow gold in Potato mode too: a flat halo, no particles, so they catch the eye from afar.
Mind Singularity in co-op
- Fixed Shiny Mewtwo’s black hole pulled nobody when playing with friends: it only worked solo. The host now drags the foes into any teammate’s hole, at the same spot the caster sees. Same for the vortex and the tornado.
Ticket counters in rifts
- Fixed The gem and ticket counters vanished on entering a rift (the longer biome name pushed them out of the pill). The name is shortened now, big numbers are abbreviated and, when room runs out, gems and tickets move to a second line: …
New level-up cards
- Changed The level-up cards are redone: a frame in the move’s colour, a medallion with the icon, light and particles. The move previews no longer stretch and are sharp on phones.
Gems and tickets in the run
- New The region pill, next to the defeats and coins, now also shows the IV gems and the tickets (×1 and ×10) picked up in this run, as soon as there is any.
Ranks in the Hall of Fame
- New New records in Leaderboard › Hall of Fame › Ranks: the first to reach rank 10, 25, 50 and 100 with any Pokémon, and with a legendary. Granted when you rank up in the PC.
Sound on phones
- Fixed On some Android phones the sound turned into static or went silent during a run. On touch screens the audio now runs in a light mode: a bigger buffer, no reverb and fewer sounds at once; and when the system suspends it, it resumes by …
Chests opened in the summary
- New The end-of-run summary shows how many chests you opened.
Reordering the auto lists
- New In Auto level and Auto item your list now shows at the top as numbered chips: ‹ › move an entry one step and ✕ takes it out, no need to redo the whole list.
Blink moves
- Fixed The moves that make you appear next to foes (shiny Melmetal’s Liquid Metal Punches and 300 other shiny moves) carried you across the map even while you stood still: no way to open chests or enter rifts. They now work like dashes: …
Demonic Trapinch’s pit
- Fixed The Antlion Pit dragged foes right onto Trapinch, rooted at the bottom, and they bit you. They now slide down to the rim of the funnel, where the jaws reach them, and while in the pit they cannot bite you. The pit lasts 3 s (4 before).
Auto item, and Auto level from the start
- New Upgrades › “Auto item”: a priority list of held items, like Auto level. In a run, an item you find is equipped only if it ranks above the one you hold; the others are skipped with no question. Kecleon’s shop still asks.
- New Settings › Game › “Auto level on from the start”: every run begins with the AUTO chip already on, no need to press it each time.
Playing in the background
- New Settings › Game › “Keep playing in the background”: a solo run goes on while you are in another tab (YouTube, say), with no pause; sounds and alerts still play. …
The Titans hit for real
- Fixed The Titans’ hits dealt a flat minute-15 boss damage: with high defense and regen they took nothing, and only the nova killed (a Rayquaza fight went 20 minutes with no damage taken). …
Change your password
- New In Settings › Account you can change the password of your name-and-password account: type the current one and the new one. Google accounts have no password in the game.
The Poké Ball on iPad
- Fixed With Reduce Motion on in the device (iPad, iPhone, Android) the pulls’ Poké Ball scene was always skipped, even with “Skip pull animations” off. The game’s own setting now wins as soon as you touch it; until then it follows the device.
A separate volume for alerts
- New New “Alerts” slider in Settings › Sound and in the pause menu: the sound of a rift or Titan portal opening and the Judgment’s have their own volume and play even with the effects at zero. …
The health bar under your Pokémon
- Changed The health bar under your Pokémon’s feet is now drawn on the same layer as the Pokémon, above your moves, projectiles and effects: it used to vanish under them.
“Flip all” always in view
- Changed In ×100 pulls the “Flip all” button was nearly invisible over the cards and seemed lost while scrolling. It is now a dark plate with a gold rim pinned to the bottom edge, like “Continue”, and the last row of cards leaves room under it.
The experience bar on iPad
- Fixed On iPad (and in the installed app on any phone) the experience bar at the top edge was hidden under the status bar. It now sits right below it, and is a little thicker on tablets and PCs.
Held items, reworked
- New Two new items in chests, from bosses and in Kecleon’s shop: King’s Rock (each hit has a 5% chance to stun the foe for 0.6 s, not bosses) and Air Balloon (+10% speed and you float over trees, rocks and obstacles, not over walls).
- Changed Leftovers: 1% HP a second, and 3% while you have not been hit for 4 s. Focus Sash: every 45 s (60 before), and when it fires 2.5 s of invulnerability, a shockwave that throws foes back, a banner and a sound; its recharge shows as a ring on …
- Changed Item cards (the choice and Kecleon’s shop) have a bigger icon on a gold disc and coloured numbers: green for what you gain, red for what it costs.
New chests
- Changed The map chests are redone: the locked chest is a big dark-wood coffer with gold straps, iron corners, a chain and a padlock with a pulsing gem; it has a gold halo on the ground, a pillar of light, a ring and rising sparks, and while it …
The Titan’s safe circle
- Fixed The safe circle of the Titans’ nova could barely be seen on the red floor. It is now a bright green disc with a white rim, rings converging on it, a pillar of light you see from afar and a big SAFE label; when it is off screen, the arrow …
Pokémon with a Mega become Epic
- Changed Seventeen Pokémon with a Mega Evolution that came out of the gacha as Rare are now Epic: Pidgeot, Skarmory, Medicham, Manectric, Sharpedo, Camerupt, Altaria, Absol, Glalie, Staraptor, Lopunny, Froslass, Scolipede, Scrafty, Dragalge, Drampa …
The Titans’ loot
- Changed Beating a Titan now pays 5 ×10 tickets, 10 IV gems and 20,000 coins (before: 1 ×10 ticket, 3 gems and a handful of coins). Once per run.
Settings, rebuilt
- New The Settings menu has new pages: Game, Screen, Graphics, Sound, Controls, Account and About, every setting in the section it belongs to (before, almost everything sat under Graphics). …
- Changed Your moves’ opacity: a new 5% option, a ghost of the move that lets enemy shots show through. For teammates’ moves too.
- Fixed Some of today’s texts (lost pull, shiny with normal look, Crit damage IV, leaving a rift, Titan, Screen) showed up in Spanish for players in Italian.
Auto level on phones
- Fixed With the clear phone screen, the AUTO LEVEL / AUTO VIGOR switch in a run had vanished together with the passive chips, and without it there was no way to turn it on. It is always shown again. Bug #0136.
A clear screen on phones
- New On phones the run HUD shows only what matters: the stats panel and the passive chips stay hidden, the region pill fades after a few seconds and the damage meter starts closed. New section Settings → Graphics → Screen: …
The Titans, polished
- Changed The Titans have their own cinematic: the descent to the throne through gold rings, the three rings lighting up, the roar and the band with the title and the three phases. …
Invulnerable Rayquaza
- Fixed The Titan Rayquaza (and any Titan that dives from the sky) stayed immune after its first dive: it could not be beaten. It is vulnerable again as soon as it lands.
Upgrades of your partner
- Changed The Upgrades screen now always opens on the Pokémon you have equipped, not on the last one you looked at. From the Pokédex it still opens on the Pokémon you are looking at.
Leaving a rift
- New In the pause menu, inside a rift or the Titan Rift, there is a button to leave: you are back on the map with no reward, as if you had lost, instead of being locked in with a legendary you cannot beat. In a group the host decides. …
Stuck between obstacles
- Fixed A Pokémon that ended up in a gap between crystals, rocks or walls smaller than its body (after a dash, a push or a very fast step) stayed trapped for good. It now moves out by itself to the nearest free spot. Bug #0128.
Pulls on the trainer card
- New Every trainer’s public card now shows how many gacha pulls they have made (Collection section), and so does the card comparison. Suggestion #0130.
Repeated Plaza messages
- Fixed Entering the Plaza with a double tap joined the room twice, and every chat message then showed up twice. No more: one join only, and a message already shown is never shown again. Bug #0099.
Device clock and the save
- Fixed If one of your devices has its clock running ahead, its copy of the save always won when merged with the other one: the second move, the bans and the auto-level list went back after every run. …
Runs the server never saw start
- Fixed If the connection failed right as a run began, the server never registered it and paid nothing at the end, even once the connection was back. …
Mission countdown
- Fixed The time left before the daily and weekly missions renew followed your browser’s midnight: outside Europe it showed hours when they had already renewed. It now counts to midnight in Madrid (and Monday 00:00 in Madrid), as the server does. …
New IV: Crit damage
- New A tenth IV: Crit damage. Each point raises the multiplier of critical hits (×1.5 by default, or the legendary passive's), up to +60 % (×2.4). …
Teammate arrows in view
- Changed In co-op, the arrows with the name and distance of your off-screen teammates are no longer hidden under the damage meter or your Pokémon’s panel: they are drawn over everything and kept out of the panels, like the other map markers.
Shiny with the normal look
- New In the menu, next to Normal / Shiny / Demonic, there is a fourth choice: «Shiny, normal look». You play with the Pokémon's normal sprite and keep its shiny moves (in the Plaza and in co-op too). Suggestion #0115.
Pulls that never arrived
- Fixed If the connection dropped right after tapping a pull, the pull was made and charged but you never saw its cards and it was missing from the history. …
Vanish into the rift
- Changed Moves that vanish and reappear next to foes (shiny Urshifu and co.): if you walk towards an open rift, or the Titan Rift, within reach, the last hop lands on the portal and takes you in, instead of looping around it. Suggestion #0121.
The tickets open the gacha
- New Tapping the tickets in the top bar opens the gacha, as your name opens your profile. Suggestion #0122.
Skip pull animations
- New A «Skip animation» switch under the gacha’s pull buttons (and in Settings): the Poké Ball scene skips itself on every pull, no need to press Skip each time. Suggestion #0118.
Tougher Titans
- Changed Titans have far more health: never under 50 million (×4), scaling with the region and the group.
Nine Titans
- New Every region now has its own Titan with three unique phases: Lugia (beams from the rim, wind, waves), Rayquaza (it dives from the sky, meteors, a tornado), Giratina (shadows that follow you, darkness), Kyurem (ice fields that slow you), …
- New Two themes of their own: the Titan’s march and its rage in the third phase.
- Changed Titans have far more health (never under 12 million) and the Titan Rift is black and gold.
- Changed Full-screen announcements on every phase, on the enrage and when the Titan falls (TITAN SLAIN with its rewards); an aura under the Titan; the Rift with a ring of runes, a pillar of light and a crown.
The Titan Rifts
- New From minute 15, in a few runs, a TITAN RIFT opens: a huge portal that takes you (the whole group) to the arena of the region’s Titan, a giant with a mountain of health and three phases with their own mechanics (beams, rains, clones, …
Map markers
- Changed The arrows to rifts, shinies, bosses, teammates, gems and the shop are drawn over everything, keep out of the corner panels and are bigger, on a dark plate. Setting «Big map markers»: 50% larger and flashing.
Population data and masteries
- New Pokédex → Builds tab (also from the PC Box): per region, the 10 best runs with that Pokémon, the most used moves and the most common sets.
- New Masteries: reach Arceus’s Judgment with a Pokémon in 3 regions and you earn the title «<Pokémon> Trainer» (+5 tickets); in all 9, «<Pokémon> Champion» (+1 ×10 ticket).
Cleaner sound
- Fixed Sounds and music no longer glitch during gacha pulls (above all ×100 with «Flip all»).
Mega banners at midnight
- Changed The Mega banners now change every Sunday at 00:00 (Italian time), the next one tonight.
Shinies in the Pokédex
- New New ✨ button in the Pokédex and the PC Box: shows the shiny sprite of every shiny you own.
More Pass Points
- Changed Pass Points: 20 per minute of a run (up to 2,000 a day), 200 per daily mission, 800 per weekly mission, 500 for the first Judgment of the day.
Auto level while down
- Changed Auto Vigor and Auto level can be switched on, and keep working, while you wait to be revived.
PC: confirmation
- Changed «Rank up all» and «Max rank» now ask for confirmation.
Halloween: new looks
- New In the Halloween shop: Witch Hat, Pumpkin Head, Vampire Cloak, two colours, the Will-o’-Wisps aura, the Haunting pose, the Bat Trail for your Pokémon and the Pumpkin King title (+10% tickets from runs).
- Fixed Plaza trainers have their dark outline back.
Halloween: new screen
- Changed New Halloween event screen, with your event stats and «Claim all». Two new missions (500 pumpkins, 15 golden pumpkins) and rebalanced shop prices.
Halloween event
- New Until 7 November pumpkins appear in every run: they give candy 🍬 (golden ones, 5). Halloween missions and a shop with stickers, a title, a frame, a name colour and a profile banner. Button in the menu, under the pass.
IVs on the new moves
- Fixed Range and Area IVs now also grow the beta’s new moves.
Global chat in the Plaza
- New A “Global” button in the Plaza: the global chat (and Trades, Club and messages) without leaving the Plaza.
Co-op: host away
- Fixed If the host doesn’t come back, after 20 s you can leave and keep the run, and after 2 minutes it ends and is saved by itself: it used to stay paused for ever and was lost.
New moves (beta)
- Fixed The beta’s new moves now break chests, rocks and grass like the others.
Fairer big Pokémon
- New Settings → Graphics → Your Pokémon’s size: “Compact” draws your Pokémon smaller when it is a big one.
- Changed No Pokémon is hit with a body bigger than Mewtwo’s, however big it is.
No more guest play
- Changed You now need a (free) account to play: guest play is gone. Your progress is always saved in the cloud.
Discord in the game
- New Discord button in the menu: server invite and account linking. With your account linked, the ⭐ Supporter role is given automatically.
New moves: Supporter beta
- New 203 official moves remade with their own effects, in beta for Supporters: Settings → Graphics → Moves → New moves (beta). They come to everyone once they are all done.
Big Pokémon
- Changed Big Pokémon (Gyarados, Rayquaza, Groudon…) now have at most Charizard’s hitbox: they take fewer hits and no longer get stuck between rocks and pillars.
Lock your item
- New When you find an item you can lock the one you hold (key 3): for the rest of the run the others stay on the ground, no question.
Portrait screens
- Fixed On portrait monitors and narrow windows, wild Pokémon no longer circle at the edge without coming closer.
Less flashing on hits
- Fixed With “Less shaking and flashing”, hit foes no longer turn all white: just a light veil.
Pokémon you don’t have yet
- New In the Pokédex, the card of a Pokémon you don’t have yet shows its moves (live, with the Pokémon as a silhouette) and, for a legendary, its ability.
Thousand-Year Sleep fixed
- Fixed In co-op, a teammate’s Thousand-Year Sleep (and the other time-stop moves) now stops the foes.
- Fixed With your moves hidden, the flash and the ice on the stopped foes no longer show; with less flashing, the screen no longer flashes.
Weather messages
- Changed The weather message no longer repeats when a move renews the same weather. In Settings you can turn it off completely; the small weather chip stays.
Remove stars
- New In the PC you can take stars off a Pokémon: you get back the copies they cost (25,000 coins a copy) and can trade them or use them again.
Double hits fixed
- Fixed Near the spot where a run starts, some attacks hit the same enemy twice. Now they hit once.
Search by move
- New In the Pokédex, next to the search, choose Name or Move: with Move you see every Pokémon that has that move (among its own or its shiny ones), with the move on its card and lit in its page.
Choose your first move
- New In Upgrades → First move you choose which of its own moves each run starts with. It is free; Automatic keeps the usual one.
One TM per Pokémon
- Changed Each Pokémon can hold a single TM. Anyone who had more keeps the first one and gets a refund of the others in their inbox, at the price they paid.
Shiny TMs of any type
- Changed A shiny TM can now also go to a Pokémon that shares no type with the shinies that know the move: it costs 500,000 coins. With a type in common it still costs 50,000.
IV pyramid
- New In the IV screen, a pyramid: a main Pokémon on top and up to six slots below it. The Pokémon in the slots play with the main’s IV points, and the gems they find grow them. …
A warning when changing a TM
- Changed When you replace a Pokémon’s TM with another, the game warns you that the old one is lost and that you pay again, and asks you to confirm.
Arceus with its own music
- New Arceus’s Judgment sounds different in every region: Kanto keeps its theme and the other eight get one of their own, composed for the game.
Shiny TMs by type
- Changed A shiny TM only goes to a Pokémon that shares a type with the shiny that knows the move.
TMs of your Pokémon
- Changed TMs only teach moves of Pokémon you already own (shiny moves: of shinies you own): the rest no longer show up in the list. TMs bought that didn’t meet the rule were removed and their 50,000 coins refunded to the inbox.
Codes on Discord
- New On our Discord, the #codes channel keeps every code we give away, with its reward, the uses left and the date it expires. Redeem them in Settings › Promo code.
Balanced gardens
- Changed Mega Gardevoir’s Moon Garden now heals 6% of your max HP a second while you stand inside, and shiny Mega Diancie’s Jewel Bloom 8% (20% and 24% until now).
Sounds your way
- New In Settings → Sound you can mute the legendaries’ cries in the rifts and Arceus’s toll in the menu, each on its own.
Each region, its own music
- New Every region now has its own run soundtrack, composed for the game: Kanto keeps the familiar one; Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar, Paldea and the Hall of Origin get a theme of their own, with its cave and volcano versions.
Hits you notice
- New When you take damage, a red glow at the screen edges (stronger for big hits) and a deeper sound for heavy hits. It can be turned off in Settings → Graphics → Hit flash.
- New With the panel collapsed, the weather stays in view: under the Mega and Auto chips, next to the bubble.
Healing in numbers
- New Every healing move now says how much: life steal (5% of its damage, at most 1.2% of your max HP a second), Leech Seed, the shiny and Mega gardens, and Recover’s family. The pause screen shows it in HP for your moves.
- New Shell Bell says how much it heals: 2.5% of the damage you deal, up to 2.5 HP a second.
- Fixed Recover, Roost, Rest, Moonlight, Wish, Soft-Boiled, Slack Off and Life Dew now heal as their description says: they didn’t.
- Fixed Mega Gardevoir’s Moon Garden and shiny Mega Diancie’s Jewel Bloom at max level healed you fully every half second: they now heal twice as much, as their upgrade says.
×100 with ×10 tickets
- New In the gacha, the ×100 pull can be paid with ten ×10 tickets too: the button appears once you have ten or more.
Ban up to six
- Changed The Ban upgrade now goes up to level 6: up to six banned moves per Pokémon (three until now).
Each region with its own
- Changed Wild Pokémon are always the region’s own generation: in the strongest tier, others used to slip in. And a wild shiny is always from the region.
Optional cinematics
- New Settings → Graphics → Skip cinematics: the rift’s legendary and Arceus’s Judgment start at once, without their animations.
Trades face to face
- Changed Trade listings are gone from the chat: trades happen face to face in the Plaza. The Trades channel stays for talking.
One shiny per run
- Fixed Sometimes a second wild shiny appeared (a rift legendary, or in co-op) that the server then refused with an error at the end of the run. No more.
Names and tags
- Changed Hate symbols and groups are no longer allowed in nicknames or in club names and tags.
Stuck chat line
- Fixed A chat message no longer stays stuck on screen during a run after you open and close the chat.
Trade listings
- New Post listings in Trades with what you offer and what you want. Each one marks what you lack and what you already have, with filters to find them.
Wild shinies
- Changed Wild shinies only appear from minute 20 of a run, one per run at most.
Trainer level
- New New trainer level: it rises as you play runs and chat, with no cap. Every 10 levels brings a new tier, from Bronze to Legend, and stars from level 100.
Polls in the chat
- New Start a poll from the chat’s ☺ button: a question and 2 to 4 answers, 10 minutes to vote, with live results.
- Changed In Moments, one trainer’s pulls close together now share a single card, the rarest in front.
Typing and joining
- New The chat shows who is typing and who just came online, and typing @ suggests names.
- New Hover a name (or long-press it) to see their trainer card in small.
A smoother chat
- New A line marks where you stopped reading, new messages come in with a flash, and 🔥 or ❤️ rain on messages with 5 or more.
- New Separate sounds for private messages, mentions and your club (Settings → Controls), the sender’s Pokémon on the lines during a run, and what you read synced across your devices.
Epic moments
- New New legendaries and shinies, Mega Stones, demonic forms, Arceus’s Judgment and the day’s new #1 now appear in the global chat as cards with a GG button.
Reactions and replies
- New In the chat you can react to a message with 🔥 👏 😂 ❤️ or GG and reply to it with a quote, from ⋯ or with a long press.
Chat with style
- New Each message takes the colour of your Pokémon’s type, yours sit on the right, and names show 👑 for the top 3, a demonic or shiny form and your title.
- New The global chat’s header shows today’s top 3 live.
Hidden moves
- Fixed With Your moves on Hidden (Settings), no effect of your moves shows anymore, not even Psybeam, Dazzling Gleam or Quick Attack.
Moves that pull
- Changed Whirlpool, Sand Tomb, Ominous Wind, Twister and Hurricane now pull foes in: a whirlpool that drags them to its center or a twister that hunts them. The shiny versions pull harder.
Where your stats come from
- New In the pause, tap a stat to see where it comes from: base, stars, upgrades and IVs, this run and the active buffs.
Buffs with numbers
- Changed Buff moves like Agility now show their exact numbers, and in a run the stat they raise shows its value without the buff and what it adds.
Your stats
- New The Pokédex and the PC Box show each Pokémon’s real stats, base → yours, with what stars, upgrades, IVs and passives add in gold.
- New New «Your stats» sort in the Pokédex, and the PC rank ladder shows the stats each next star gives.
Magnet IV
- New New Magnet IV: +2% pickup range per point. IV gems can now give it too.
Chat in the middle
- Changed The chat window opens in the middle of the screen.
Mega gauge
- Changed Each boss fills an exact share of the Mega gauge: bosses alone always fill it all the way (no more stopping at 99%).
Fifth Slot
- New New upgrade Fifth Slot (300,000 coins): with that Pokémon every run starts with 5 move slots.
Second move
- New With Repertoire you choose the second move each run starts with (Upgrades → Repertoire → Choose).
IV gems come to you
- Changed IV gems left on the ground for 5 seconds fly to the nearest player by themselves.
The ×100 order
- Changed In the ×100 pull the best cards come first.
Title screen
- Fixed In some browsers the game got stuck on the title background after pressing start.
Menu during runs
- Fixed Opening the club from the chat during a run no longer leaves the home menu over the game.
Who is online
- Changed The top of the chat window shows the Pokémon of every trainer online.
Steadier spectator mode
- Fixed Watching a friend’s run no longer gets stuck on “Waiting for their game…”: it keeps working while their game is paused, in the background or reconnecting.
Avatars in their form
- New On Discord, every game message in #game-chat now shows its sender’s Pokémon as the avatar.
- Fixed The chat shows each player’s Pokémon in the form they play it, shiny or demonic included.
Chat without pause
- Changed In solo runs the game no longer pauses while the chat is open.
Chat in runs
- Changed In runs, Enter opens the same chat window as on the home screen (in co-op, on the room channel); a solo run waits while it is open.

- Fixed Buying upgrades quickly no longer duplicates or loses levels.
- Fixed Banning moves now opens in a window.
- Fixed Phones and AYN Thor: all upgrades fit on one page.
Pickups
- Fixed Pulled pickups are now always faster than the player.
Favorites
- New Mark Pokémon as favorites with the heart: they get their own section and appear first in Upgrades.
Rewards
- Fixed A notice now appears when the server does not confirm a run's rewards.
AYN Thor: bottom screen in menus
- New The bottom screen now also works in menus, the gacha and the summon.
- Fixed Upgrades: rapid taps are no longer lost.
- Fixed Android app 1.3: the system font size no longer affects the game.
New second screen and a smoother AYN Thor
- Changed The bottom screen no longer has a radar: it shows your animated Pokémon, health, experience, moves with their icon, level and cooldown, boosters, stats with icons and caps, your item, the boss (and where it is) or the countdown to the next …
- Changed Tap a move, a stat or your item to see what it does (and what it gets at the next level). Notices down there when you level up, learn or evolve a move, pick up an item and when a boss appears or falls. …
- Changed Android app 1.2: the top screen runs at a steady 60 Hz (at 120 Hz the game couldn't keep up and stuttered) and the bottom one costs almost nothing, so it no longer slows the game down.
- Fixed The level-up cards on the bottom screen now have their icon.
Fairer caps
- Changed Vigor (+15 max HP) no longer has a cap: you can take it as many times as you like.
- Changed Held items go over the caps: the Assault Vest adds its +12% damage reduction on top of the cards' 40% and of the 60% with Harden, and no longer fills up the Armor cards' cap.
- Fixed A move that needs a stat to evolve no longer gets stuck when that stat is capped: its card still comes up and may go slightly over the cap.
Android app, AYN Thor and controllers
- New Android app (pokelit.0d4y.cc/downloads/pokelit-android.apk): the same game as the website, always up to date. On dual-screen handhelds like the AYN Thor, the bottom screen shows a radar with foes, the boss, the rift and your team, your …
- New Controllers: the stick or D-pad moves you; on menus and cards they move the highlight, A chooses, B goes back, Start pauses and Y rerolls the cards. Works in the app and in a PC browser (Xbox, PlayStation, Switch pads).
- New On a PC with two monitors you can also open pokelit.0d4y.cc/screen2.html in another window and it works as the second screen.
- New You can also sign in with Google in the app: the browser opens, you choose your account and you go back to the game already signed in.
Stat caps
- Changed Under each run stat you can see how many cards of that upgrade you have and its cap (for example 3/8), or MAX when it's full.
- Fixed A maxed-out stat no longer shows up among the cards: not Armor either once you reach 40% with items and upgrades, nor for an evolution.
Moves back to level 5, smoother co-op and less shaking
- Changed Moves are back to a max level of 5 (it was 10): every level brings its big upgrade plus +15% damage (support moves, +10% power; moves that don't hit, -6% cooldown). …
- Changed Much less screen shake: normal attacks (lightning, electric chains, beams, rushes…) no longer shake the camera on every hit, shaking is softer and shorter, and with "Less shaking and flashing" in Settings nothing shakes at all.
- Fixed Co-op: enemies no longer move in jerks in long runs. Positions travel on a fast channel (a lost packet no longer holds the others back) and their speed is worked out with the host's clock.
Connecting with friends
- Fixed Room: connecting with your friends fails much less often ("Can't connect to one of your friends"). The host was ignoring part of the friend's network data and on many home and mobile networks it never connected; it now also waits a little …
Bosses you couldn't see
- Fixed Sometimes a boss stayed out of view forever: only its health bar showed at the top, nobody could hit it and, while it was "alive", no more rifts or events opened. …
Social Plaza, your own trainer and full screen on phones
- New Plaza: interactions between players. From someone's card you can high five, hug, fist bump or dance together (your trainer walks up to them and they accept with one tap) and pet their Pokémon. You can also follow a player around the Plaza.
- New Plaza: new Actions panel with 16 emotes, trainer actions (cheer, jump, spin, wave hello, play with your Pokémon), poses (dance, sit on the ground, nap) and quick chat phrases.
- New Plaza: list of the people online with your status over your head (looking for a group, up for a chat, away, new here), friends highlighted in green, a notice when a friend arrives, invites to your group and your friends' invites inside the …
- New A much richer wardrobe: eye colour, face accessories (glasses, sunglasses, freckles…), 11 hairstyles, 13 hats (top hat, crown, cat ears, wizard hat…), 8 tops with a main and an accent colour, trousers, shorts or skirt, shoes and something …
- Changed On phones every window takes the whole screen and nothing needs scrolling: long lists (Pokédex, leaderboard, news, settings, missions…) turn into pages with ‹ › or a swipe, and only coins and tickets stay at the top. …
- Changed Pokédex on phones: region, type and filter as drop-downs, and the Pokémon's card always on the right. Pause, end of run, room, gacha and the ×10 results redone to fit the screen.
- Changed Plaza on phones: all its panels (card, people, wardrobe, champions) full screen, with nothing to scroll.
- Fixed The Pokémon following you in the Plaza no longer freezes or stutters while walking (it kept switching between walking and standing), no longer attacks on the spot when you start walking, no longer covers you when you stop (it steps beside …
- Fixed Button editor: the "Attacks" label is no longer cut off at the top.
Plaza chat on phones
- Fixed On phones the Plaza chat no longer covers the screen or stops you from moving: the 💬 button is at the top, the open chat is a compact panel at the top left (with the text field visible even with the keyboard up) and the bottom half stays …
English by default and gacha cards fixed
- Fixed Gacha on phones: face-down cards no longer flicker or show the Pokémon before you flip them.
- Fixed The game is now written in English (the default language): no more Spanish text unless you choose it. Also fixed texts that showed up in Spanish in English and Italian (personalities, leaderboard tabs, moderation, coin breakdown) and the …
Anti-cheat protection
- New Coins, tickets, Pokémon, shinies and upgrades are now stored and decided by our server: gacha pulls happen there and every run’s rewards are checked against the real time played. …
- New In-game anti-cheat: important values are encrypted in memory (Cheat Engine can’t find them), and speedhacks and clock-changing scripts are detected.
Collapsible HUD
- New Tap (or click) your Pokémon’s picture at the top left and the whole panel (HP, moves, item and stats) folds into a small circle with your Pokémon, its HP ring and level, so you see more of the map. Tap it again to open everything back up. …
New: the PokéLit Plaza
- New New Hub button in the menu, above your partner: it takes you to the PokéLit Plaza, a shared square where you meet other players live (up to 20 per plaza). Everyone is their own trainer, followed by their Pokémon with its animations.
- New Chat with speech bubbles over your head, 8 emotes, a card for every player (view profile, add friend, wave, mute, report) and a wardrobe to change skin, hairstyle, hat, shirt and trousers.
- New In the plaza: the portal to play, the gacha machine, the news and co-op boards, benches to sit on, a wishing fountain and golden statues of the top three in the leaderboard. …
Smoother on phones
- Fixed On phones the game stuttered after minute 7: with so many enemy types at once, almost 200 animations piled up in memory (~130 MB). Now, on phones and tablets, normal enemies use only their basic animations and memory stays around 75 (~50 …
- Fixed Gacha on phones: cards no longer flicker when they appear and flip.
Confusion homes in again
- Fixed Confusion, Psychic, Poison Sting and the other homing shots are back to how they were: they home in on the foe instead of bursting on top of it.
The rift tears open and the legendary truly roars
- Changed Entering a rift, the screen no longer shatters into glass: a crackling tear of light in its color opens in the middle, the world splits into two halves that part like a torn curtain, and behind it spins a dimensional vortex the legendary …
Legendary encounter: real glass and OLED black
- Changed The screen shatter, remade: an impact in the center, spider-web cracks spreading from it, wedge-shaped glass shards flying toward you spinning and glinting, and glass dust. …
The legendary encounter
- New New rift entrance, like a game encounter: the screen flashes, cracks and shatters into glass; in the dark, amid fog of its color, heartbeats and rumbling, the legendary’s giant silhouette rises as lightning reveals it; a flash and it …
Movement moves go where you want
- Changed Quick Attack, Extreme Speed, Fly, Bounce, Dig, Dive, Flare Blitz and the other dashes no longer drag you onto foes: while you move, they launch you where you’re heading (to chase, escape or reach a rift sooner), hitting everything on the …
Capped lifesteal and jumps without invulnerability
- Fixed Absorb and Giga Drain together made you immortal: they healed up to 6 HP per hit on top of lifesteal. Now everything that steals HP (Absorb, Mega Drain, Giga Drain, Leech Seed...) shares one cap: at most 1.2% of your max HP per second.
- Fixed Jumps no longer make you invulnerable: Fly, Bounce, Dig, Dive, Phantom Force, U-turn and Volt Switch.
Real status moves
- New The status moves from the games arrive, with 6 new families: powder and gas clouds (Sleep Powder, Stun Spore, Spore, Poison Powder...), stares, songs and waves (Thunder Wave, Hypnosis, Sing, Confuse Ray, Growl, Leer, Screech, Roar...), …
- New Melee moves also use the attacker motion from their Showdown animation: X-slashes (X-Scissor, Cross Chop...), dashes with speed trails, sneak attacks that vanish for a moment, strikes from the air; and elemental ones release the particles …
Moves with their in-game animation
- New Every move now uses how it looks in the Pokémon Showdown animations: arcing shots that land and splash (Sludge Bomb, Egg Bomb...), shots that speed up (Energy Ball) or burst out and slow down (Surf, Shadow Ball, Ember), curving shots, …
Items by choice and even more epic rifts
- Changed Items no longer equip themselves: when you pick one up you choose whether to equip it (and, if you already hold one, which to keep).
- Changed More epic rift intro: cinematic bars, light rays behind the portrait, shockwaves and lightning on the reveal, and a final "Fight!" stamp. While it plays nobody attacks: neither you nor the legendary.
Rift intro, remade
- Changed New legendary intro when entering a rift: a slanted band in its type colors, its Mystery Dungeon portrait inside a spinning star, its name slamming in letter by letter, a unique line for each of the 87 legendaries, speed lines, its giant …
- Changed Updates never close a run in progress anymore: the game updates when you return to the menu.
Epic rifts, stronger melee and search
- New Entering a rift now has an epic intro: the screen closes in, the legendary appears as a silhouette and is revealed with its name and types, with an orchestral fanfare. The duel has a new fast, epic theme in the style of legendary battles.
- New Collection: search by name or number and filter by type (Grass, Fighting...). They search every generation.
- Changed Stronger melee: +25% damage and +25% area (dashes +15% damage); its range upgrade is now +35%.
- Changed Boost moves (Harden, Swords Dance, Agility...): their upgrades no longer give duration (they never expire) but more power.
Every move, like in the games
- New Moves are no longer all the same: each one does what it does in the games. Paralyze (the foe stops), freeze (ice block), sleep (Zzz), flinch, confuse (the foe wanders), lower Defense or Attack, trap (Whirlpool, Sand Tomb), multi-hit …
- New Melee moves now have 20 different styles, each with its own shape and animation: punch, sweeping kick, bite on the foe, three-mark slash, near-circle tail swipe, jump with a shockwave, horn stab, a throw that tosses the foe behind you, a …
- New Fly and Bounce make you leap high (invulnerable) and crash onto the foe; Dig, Dive and Phantom Force hide you and you burst out next to it; U-turn and Volt Switch hop you back after hitting; Recover, Roost and Synthesis also heal you now …
Steadier co-op and smoother gacha
- Fixed The room no longer closes mid-game: a connection drop (phone in pocket, Wi-Fi to mobile data, app in background) deleted the room and kicked everyone. Now the game waits up to 40 s for whoever dropped to come back.
- Fixed Opening tickets no longer stutters on phones: lower resolution and no blurred glows in the summon, and the menu background stops drawing meanwhile.
- Fixed Clearer level-up cards on phones: tag above the name, everything centered and all three the same height.
Looks right on every screen
- Fixed Big screens (Full HD, ultrawide, 4K): menus, windows and the in-game panel now grow with the screen (they looked tiny on 4K).
- Fixed Phones in landscape: the 3 level-up cards side by side (the third went off-screen) and the pause buttons at the top.
iPhone
- Fixed On iPhone the game looked stretched after rotating or when Safari’s bar hid: it now always fits the screen.
Boosts for everyone
- New Harden, Swords Dance, Agility (plus Aqua Ring or Dragon Dance for your type, and your Pokémon’s own boosts) show up again on cards for every Pokémon, as a regular move (they take a slot, no limit).
- Changed Level-up cards are no longer almost all move upgrades: stat upgrades show up more.
- Changed Each move’s description now says what it does in the game (punch in an arc, wave around you, lightning from the sky, burns, slows, heals you...).
Your build in the pause menu
- New When you pause (Esc) you see your build: moves with their level, item, passive, stats and upgrades taken. Hover (or tap) anything to see what it does, its numbers, its next upgrade and how it evolves.
Every move, like in the games
- Changed The original moves now also have their official name, description and real animation: Flamethrower is a stream of fire, Meteor Mash a punch, Bubble a spray of bubbles, Thunder a bolt from the sky...
- Changed New animations: Swords Dance shows swords, Harden and Iron Defense a shield, Agility wind, Calm Mind psychic waves, Recover hearts; and elemental hits (Fire Punch, Thunder Fang, Ice Punch...) release their flame, spark or ice.
Clearer panel, compact on phones
- Changed Each move now shows its name under it.
- Changed On phones the panel is smaller and the stats are folded: tap your Pokémon’s portrait to show or hide them.
Moves just like in the games
- Changed Every Pokémon’s moves now work and look like in the games: punches are fists, bites bite, slashes slash, Surf is a wave around you, Earthquake shakes the ground, Hyper Voice is sound waves, Hurricane a tornado, Sludge Bomb a blob of …
- Changed Real effects: burn, poison, paralysis or freeze (slows), flinch (knocks back), multi-hit moves (Bullet Seed, Pin Missile...) and draining moves (Giga Drain, Drain Punch...) heal you a little. Each with its official description.
Codes, events and reports
- New Promo codes: redeem them in Settings › Account (we will post them on Discord and in announcements).
- New Timed events (more XP, more shinies, more coins...), announcements and gifts for everyone: you will see them when you open the game and at the top of News.
- New Report a bug from Settings › Account; and if the game crashes, the error reaches us automatically so we can fix it sooner.
Every Pokémon has its own 4 moves
- New Every Pokémon now has its own 4 moves, taken from the games (Charizard: Ember, Flare Blitz, Wing Attack and Inferno; Giratina: Shadow Sneak, Shadow Force, Draco Meteor and Aura Sphere...): no two sets of 4 are the same. …
- New With the extra rift slot (or after forgetting one) you get moves of your types, like before.
Gacha: your collection
- New Each banner now shows how many of each rarity you already own (e.g. Legendary 1/3), and each tab shows how many you own from that generation.
Gentler difficulty curve
- Changed With moves going up to level 10 you power up more slowly, so enemies scale less over time: from 20% less HP early on to 40% less at the end, and a bit less damage late in the run.
- Changed More experience: +16% from each defeated Pokémon, and high levels need less (20% less around level 50).
Crash report
- Fixed If the game crashes and closes your run, it now shows the reason so we can fix it (send us a screenshot).
English by default
- Changed The game starts in English if you have not picked a language; you can change it in Settings > Language (it is remembered).
Extra slot and forgetting moves
- New A fifth move slot, locked at the start: beating a rift legendary has a very low chance (8%) of unlocking it for the rest of the run.
- New Rift legendaries can also give (15%) the option to forget an equipped move: when you return you pick which one to remove (or none); its slot is freed and it will not show up again that run.
Automatic attacks
- Changed Every move in your slots now fires on its own at the same time: no more picking the attack (goodbye 1-4, Q/E and tapping the icon). So it is not too much, damage is split among attacking slots (with 4, each does half: …
- Changed Removed the move shortcuts from Upgrades: there is no slot to pick anymore.
- Changed Choice Band: +40% damage, but +25% cooldown (it used to stop you from switching moves).
- Changed Boost moves (Swords Dance, Harden, Agility, Aqua Ring...) give half as much: they are now always active.
Moves up to level 10
- Changed Moves now level up to 10 (was 5): the usual big upgrades come at levels 3, 5, 7 and 9, with a small one on even levels (+10% damage; +15% duration for boosts). They evolve at level 10.
- Changed Bonds only fuse moves at level 10: if you do not have two yet, the bond is saved until you level them up.
Enemy shots stand out
- Changed Enemy shots are drawn on top of everything, with a dark outline, a pulsing red edge and a halo: you can see them even with tons of effects.
- Changed Your attacks and effects are slightly transparent and your teammates’ even more; damage numbers only show for crits, super-effective hits, big hits and against the boss.
- Changed Boss and enemy attack zones have a dark outline and a thicker edge, and are drawn above your auras.
Health bar on your Pokémon
- New Your Pokémon now has its health bar under its feet (green, yellow or red depending on what is left).
- Changed Run stats move under the panel, so the clock and the boss bar are back at the top center (on phones, where it does not fit, the boss bar goes to the bottom center).
Top panel with your stats
- New Next to the panel, your live run stats: damage, speed, defense, cooldown, regeneration, crit, pickup radius and experience.
- New When you leave a rift you get 3 seconds of immunity and the Pokémon waiting on top of it get pushed away.
- Changed The panel with your Pokémon, HP and moves moves from bottom center to top left; the clock, biome and boss bar sit in the free space and the weather goes under the panel.
Tougher bosses and less stutter
- Changed Bosses are much stronger: double HP, more damage, a bit faster, attack more often with more projectiles and enrage sooner (at 60%). Elites and rift legendaries also last longer and hit harder.
- Changed Bosses and elites no longer have a health bar above them: the boss bar is only shown at the top.
- Fixed Stutter from minute 7 on: the game kept the sprites of every Pokémon seen so far and filled the graphics memory. Now only the on-screen ones are kept, they decode without pausing the game and at most the last three enemy groups appear at a …
Balanced passives and less god mode
- New A unique passive also for the Legendary-rarity Pokémon that lacked one: Dragonite, Tyranitar, Slaking, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp, Hydreigon, Goodra, Kommo-o, Dragapult, Baxcalibur, Roaring Moon, Iron Valiant, Walking Wake, Iron Leaves …
- New The passive shows in the HUD: a pill with its charge that glows when it triggers, and its effects (waves, bolts, explosions) are much more visible.
- Changed The in-game bottom panel is smaller (25% less): you see more of the map.
- Changed Every legendary passive toned down (they were too strong), especially defense, HP, healing and life steal.
- Changed Less god mode: damage reduction now caps at 60% (was 80%); Coraza +4% (max 8 times), Síntesis +0.6/s (max 6), Vigor +15 (max 10), Sitrus Berry 30%, Leftovers 0.8%/s, Assault Vest 12%, Shell Bell halved, Harden and Aqua Ring weaker, melee …
Field of view
- New Settings > Graphics: new field-of-view slider (80%–140%) to see more or less of the map around you. Sliders are now clearly visible on black.
Centre HUD and new Upgrades
- New New in-run HUD: a black panel at the bottom centre with your Pokémon’s animated portrait, experience ring, level, name, HP, active move, the 4 slots and the item.
- New Revamped Upgrades screen: your Pokémon big with its aura and passive, black cards with a medallion, a glowing level bar, affordable ones glow gold and a flash when you buy.
Legendary passives and balanced moves
- New Each of the 87 legendaries has its own passive (Ho-Oh’s rebirth, Zekrom’s lightning, Deoxys’s formes, Arceus’s Multitype...). It shows in the Pokédex and the menu, and is announced when a run starts.
- Changed Moves rebalanced with real damage tests: the dominant ones go down (Heat Wave, Vine Whip, Flamethrower, Ember, Karate Chop...) and the weak ones go up (Gust, Leaf Storm, Ice Beam, Psybeam, Mud Shot, Hex...).
- Changed Burn stacks up to 5 (was 8) and deals a bit less per stack: fire no longer wins on its own.
Punchier combat
- New New health bars: rounded frame, the lost part stays light for a moment and then drains, a flash on hit, gold with notches for bosses and orange for elites; normal enemies’ bars fade if you stop hitting them.
- New Your bar shakes when you are hit, glows green when you heal and pulses red below 25%.
- New More satisfying hits: enemies squash when damaged, numbers bounce out in an arc, fallen enemies burst into sparks of their type and elites and bosses freeze the action for an instant.
- Changed Weaker healers: they heal 5% (was 7%), each enemy gets at most one heal every 4 s even with several healers nearby, and healers heal each other for half.
More gacha suspense
- New Cards are dealt one by one face down: they come out of where the ball opened, fly to their spot spinning and land on the table.
- New More epic legendary card: before flipping it shakes harder and harder as golden light leaks through cracks; when it flips, a golden flash, screen shake, rays, shockwaves and sparks, then a spinning holographic frame, a rainbow sheen and a …
- New Gacha cards stay face down and you flip them yourself by tapping (rare ones shake before flipping); «Flip all» reveals them at once.
- New The summon is no longer automatic: each tap on the Poké Ball makes it shake (and maybe upgrade); after the last one it opens. Hold it and it first shakes, pulls in sparks and fills a ring. …
- New New gacha card background: no more spinning rays, now a soft aurora in the best rarity’s colour, blurred lights drifting up and a reflection under the cards.
- New The ball rocks like when catching a Pokémon in the games (one side, the other, then settles, with the button lit) and no longer springs forward when it upgrades.
- New New, smoother ball opening: the lid lifts on its hinge, light fans out, an energy orb rises pulling in spiralling sparks and bursts with shockwaves, spinning rays, floating sparks and a glitter shower.
- New New 3D ball: lighting and shine, it rocks on its base like in the games, the button lights up on each shake, sparks orbit around it and it spins when it upgrades.
- New When it becomes a Master Ball (legendary): the sky cracks in gold, a runic circle in the banner’s colour appears under the ball and lightning strikes it more and more.
- New Summon with suspense: energy gathers in the centre, the ball appears, each shake is slower as the camera closes in, the ball cracks with light when it upgrades and trembles before opening; when it opens the rarity name appears (from Epic …
- New Cards come out face down and flip one by one; epics, legendaries and shinies shake and glow before flipping. Tap to flip them all.
- New More epic level-up cards: black with the move’s colour, an icon medallion, a shine, a fanned entrance and a golden title; evolutions glow gold.
New gacha summon
- New The slot machine makes way for a summon: a Poké Ball falls from the sky, shakes and can upgrade to Great, Ultra and Master Ball with each shake depending on your pull; when it opens, a pillar of light in the colour of the best rarity. …
- Changed Even fewer tickets: from defeated Pokémon, bosses, rifts, chests, Gholdengo, missions and achievements.
Fewer tickets
- Changed Gacha tickets are quite a bit rarer: fewer from defeated Pokémon, bosses, rift legendaries, big chests and Gholdengo, and daily missions give one less.
- Changed Leaderboard: the 2nd and 3rd place trophies are now silver and bronze.
Epic gacha banners
- New Each banner is now a poster: the strongest legendary big in the centre, its giant silhouette glowing behind, the other two at the sides, the region’s name in the background, rising sparks and a colour of its own for each region.
Harder
- Changed From a minute and a half in, difficulty ramps up much faster: more enemies, tougher and hitting harder, elites from minute 4 and tougher bosses. You earn slightly less experience.
- Fixed Gacha pull cards are centred again; removed the ring on the banner.
- Fixed Another player’s profile is no longer cut off (the name sat under the header).
Ring menu and black theme
- New New loading screen: OLED black, the golden logo with a shine and the Wheel of Judgment spinning.
- New More epic gacha: a gold-framed portal, big pull buttons and, on reveal, a flash in the colour of the best rarity (a legendary shakes the screen).
- New Leaderboard podium: gold, silver and bronze with a shine, first place bigger with an animated trophy.
- New New main menu: your Pokémon in the centre, inside a golden ring, with the shortcuts arched on each side and Play below.
- New OLED black theme across the whole game: windows, buttons, Pokédex, upgrades, gacha, missions, settings, level-up cards, pause, run summary and HUD, with gold as the accent.
- New New menu music and title screen sounds: your partner’s shockwaves and Arceus’s bell.
- Fixed The horde’s red eyes now sit on each Pokémon’s face.
The Night of Judgment
- New New title screen: a starry night with Arceus’s giant silhouette and its golden wheel, a red-eyed horde closing in and your partner in the middle pushing it back. Press and a shockwave sweeps the horde away as you enter the game.
- New The same night carries on behind sign-in, the quiz and the menus.
More challenge mid-run
- Changed Poison no longer melts bosses: it deals much less to bosses and a bit less to other enemies.
- Changed Healer Pokémon show up again in every run.
- Changed The start is still gentle, but from minute 2 enemies are more numerous, tougher and more dangerous, and elites arrive sooner: standing still is no longer enough.
New look and balance rework
- New New interface look: redesigned panels, buttons, main menu, level-up cards, gacha, ranking and run summary, with a more readable font for longer text.
- Changed Revamped HUD: green/yellow/red HP with a damage trail, level badge, circular cooldown sweep and a boss bar whose name is always readable.
- Changed Balance rework: a much gentler start (fewer enemies and less damage early on) with difficulty rising steadily up to Arceus’s Judgment; fairer bosses and rifts, frailer runners, and buffed weak starter moves.
- Changed Power now adds +10% damage per card (max 20) and Substitute deals less damage but fires faster.
- Fixed Bosses are no longer healed or shielded by support enemies.
- Fixed Several overlapping area attacks no longer all hit you at once.
Room chat and a higher camera
- New Upgrades: new «Reset» button next to the Pokémon. It removes all its upgrades and refunds 40% of the coins you spent on it.
- New Room chat: talk with your friends in the room and during group runs (T or Enter on PC, chat button and quick phrases on mobile). It can be turned off in Settings > Controls.
- Changed New moves are no longer equipped automatically: you keep your current one and the new one glows with a «NEW» tag until you pick it.
- Changed The camera is a bit higher: you see more of the map around you.
- Changed UI fixes: «Sign in with Google» now fits on landscape phones; achievements no longer cover the run summary; tidier Missions, Friends, Ranking, Upgrades, Support and Pause screens.
Safer and better on mobile
- New You can skip the personality test and pick your partner directly.
- New The update notice now has an "Update now" button.
- Changed Landscape phones: the sign-in screen, run end, gacha, test and Pokédex fit without scrolling, and nothing hides under the notch.
- Changed Bigger, more readable HUD on phones and tablets, easier-to-tap buttons, and the secondary top buttons grouped under "⋯".
- Changed Support move cards (Swords Dance, Agility…) only appear once you have 2 attacks, and learning one no longer switches you to it (you stopped attacking).
- Changed The installed app works offline reliably and no longer keeps taking more space. If your system has "reduce motion" on, the game respects it. Tablets can play in portrait.
- Fixed Text fields accept spaces again and Tab moves between them.
- Fixed A pending item from one run no longer shows up for free in the next, and in co-op an item arriving while you pick a bond no longer freezes the run.
- Fixed Focus Sash no longer recharges while the game is paused.
- Fixed Fixed: projectiles staying alive after you fall, boss warnings frozen on the menu, altars and springs reactivating after travelling far, music playing in bursts, and a rift victory pulling items from the map.
- Fixed The leaderboard is more reliable: impossible times are rejected and odd names or data are shown as plain text.
The game, in Italian
- New The whole game is now available in Italian (menus, runs, moves, items, achievements and news), with the official move, item and type names. Change the language in Settings > Graphics.
- New The game is now called PokéLit and lives at pokelit.0d4y.cc, with its own accounts, cloud saves, leaderboard and co-op.
- New You can install it as an app on Android, iPhone and PC (Install button at the top or in Settings > Graphics): it opens full screen, edge to edge, and the HUD and menus avoid the notch.
Required updates
- Changed When an update is required (for example, to fix an important bug), your current run ends after a 10 s notice and the game reloads. You lose nothing: that run’s coins, tickets, records and leaderboard entry are saved as if you had quit.
Recover your account with Gmail
- New If you play with a name and password, you can link your Gmail: if you ever forget your password, sign in with Google and it is the same account. We offer it when you sign in.
- New Mobile: you can now place the buttons wherever you want. In Settings > Controls > Place the buttons, drag the attacks (with the item), the pause button and the joystick, which can now also be fixed instead of appearing where you put your …
- Changed The weekly and monthly leaderboards start from scratch, like the all-time one: now only runs with the Judgment of Arceus count, and all boards match each other.
- Changed Important: the only official PokéSurvivor website is pokesurvivor.com. The game is and always will be free: if any other website asks you to pay (for tickets, coins or anything else), it isn’t us. …
- Changed The game’s code moves to a non-commercial license (PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0): you can still study and modify it, but nobody may charge for it.
- Fixed Co-op: the game no longer freezes with each player waiting for the other to choose. An item and the level-up cards no longer cover each other, and if the connection drops a message it fixes itself.
- Fixed Co-op: after coming back from a rift, players who are not the host can see every enemy again (some used to be invisible, with only their attacks showing).
- Fixed Friends: if your phone or computer has the wrong time (or time zone), your friends no longer always show as offline and their invitations reach you.
- Fixed Playing on two devices (PC and phone) no longer loses coins or tickets: before, if one had the game open with old data and saved, it erased what you earned on the other. Now both are added up. …
- Fixed Big in-game announcements (a nearby Gholdengo, a swarm...) are always centered now.
The Judgment of Arceus
- New The Judgment of Arceus: at minute 30, Arceus descends from the sky and takes you to the Ruins of Judgment. It is invincible, chases you faster and faster and casts pillars of light, beams and shockwaves; if it touches you, you lose almost …
- New Three new achievements: The Judgment (reach minute 30), Before the Creator (survive 1 minute against Arceus) and Divine challenge (defeat 3 legendaries against Arceus in a single run).
- New New music for the fight against Arceus.
- New A button to report suspicious records on the leaderboard (the little flag on each row).
- Changed The all-time leaderboard starts from scratch: now that runs end against Arceus, older records could no longer be reached. The daily, weekly and monthly boards are unchanged.
- Changed Overtime from minute 60 is removed (runs no longer get that far).
- Changed Rifts no longer open from minute 28 on, so the Judgment does not catch you inside one.
- Changed Leaderboard protected against cheating: the server checks that every record was really played. You never lose anything you earn by playing.
- Changed Records over 35 minutes have been removed from the leaderboard: with the Judgment of Arceus they are no longer possible.
- Fixed Gacha pulls, new Pokémon and rewards are saved to the cloud right away. If you opened the game on another device or browser and something was missing, open it again where you got it: it comes back on its own.
Overtime and less random rifts
- New Overtime: from minute 60 on, wild Pokémon keep getting stronger (more HP and more damage), faster and faster. Before, with maxed upgrades, some runs never ended; now the best ones will last about an hour and a half.
- New The game now updates itself when a new version is out: within 5 seconds if you are in the menu, or after your run if you are playing (without losing anything).
- New A "What's new" button (this window) with every change to the game.
- New Easier to read numbers: 2, 5 and 8 no longer look alike.
- New Pick the normal or shiny version of your partner right from the main menu, under it.
- New New upgrades for each Pokémon: Critical Hit (+3% critical chance per level, crits deal x1.5 damage), Card reroll (+1 level-up card reroll per run) and Ban (block moves so they never show up in your cards; pick them in Upgrades).
- New Move shortcuts (in Upgrades, for each Pokémon): choose which move always goes in each slot, for example Confusion always on 1, for muscle memory.
- Changed Rock Slide deals less damage (21 instead of 26): it defeated almost twice as many as the average move.
- Changed Level-up card rerolls are no longer earned by defeating bosses: you get 1 free per run and can buy more in Upgrades.
- Changed Rift legendaries no longer always drop x10 tickets: they drop one half of the time (they used to always drop 2, which was too many).
- Changed Co-op: if your networks cannot connect to each other, the room says so and keeps retrying, instead of playing laggy through a slow server.
- Changed We moved to new servers so the game can stay free: you may need to sign in again (with the same account and password, or with Google). Your save and your Pokémon are unchanged.
- Changed Gacha: shinies no longer come out as duplicates. If you roll one you already have, you get another of the same rarity that you are missing.
- Changed Less random rifts: every time one does not show up, the next one is more likely (at most 2.5 minutes without a rift).
- Changed Legendaries you have not beaten yet show up 4 times as often in rifts.
- Changed Healers heal more the harder you hit, but with diminishing returns and a cap (2.5x at most).
- Changed Stronger melee attacks: while one is active you take 25% less damage, and they reach 25% further and deal 20% more damage.
- Changed Co-op: choosing which held item to keep now pauses the run for everyone (it used to keep going and you got hit while choosing).
- Changed Co-op: while someone is choosing a fusion, the run pauses for everyone.
- Changed Co-op: if the host switches tabs or their game stalls, the run pauses for everyone until they are back.
- Changed Runs shorter than 1 minute no longer count for the leaderboard.
- Fixed Removed broken records from the leaderboard caused by the minute 84 bug (the clock kept running while the game was frozen) and a few impossible ones. If you had one, your next run counts again.
- Fixed iPhone (Safari and Chrome): sometimes you could not switch moves by tapping the icons, especially with your other finger on the joystick. Buttons also sit above the home bar now.
- Fixed In runs longer than 84 minutes the screen went black, the game froze or you kept levelling up forever. Now you can play for as long as you survive.
- Fixed If the game ever crashes, the run ends by itself and is saved (time, defeated, records and leaderboard) instead of being lost.
- Fixed Very long runs were sometimes flagged as cheating and did not count for the leaderboard.
- Fixed Co-op: if the host switched tabs, enemies stood still and everyone else got a free advantage.
- Fixed iPhone: holding your finger on the joystick brought up "Copy / Select all".
- Fixed iPhone: fullscreen sometimes did not show up. Now the button explains how to get it (Share and "Add to Home Screen").

- Changed More rifts.

- Changed On mobile, the Pokémon details show alongside; logging in is faster and the x10 gacha can be closed.
- Fixed Black screen in runs longer than an hour because image memory filled up.
- Fixed Tickets were lost if the tab closed before the run ended: now they are saved as soon as you pick them up.
- Fixed An upgrade bought right after saving was charged but not applied.
