January 3: Monthly Donator/Patreon Updates

As of January 3 2021, the monthly $25 and $50 Patreon tiers have a new perk available:

* Each month, you may pick a non-legendary Pokemon to go in-game either as a 1-day Promo, or as a common map Pokemon (CMP). If a CMP is chosen, it must be obtainable for at least 1 month, and the odds/rarity cannot be chosen.

Visit the Donations Guide for more information!

Additionally, the Heroic Donator & Legendary Donator groups have an additional Pokemon pick available every month! Heroic Donators now get 2 picks, while Legendary Donators get 3 picks each month. (Previously it was 1 and 2, respectively.) This is in addition to the monthly promo pick.

Thus, a Heroic Donator may choose 2 Pokemon to put in-game however they choose and 1 as a promo, for a total of 3 picks. Meanwhile, a Legendary Donator has 3 free picks and 1 promo pick, for a total of 4.

Finally, as hinted, the "promo pick" can now be either a 1-day promo or a common map Pokemon (CMP). However, the "promo pick" must be used for a promo or common map Pokemon and cannot be used in any other way. Furthermore, if a common map Pokemon is chosen, it must be obtainable for at least 1 month and the odds will be chosen by us.

* Ultra Donator: 1 promo/CMP pick per month (Previous: N/A)
* Pretty Donator: 1 pick + 1 promo/CMP pick (Previous: 1 pick)
* Heroic Donator: 2 picks + 1 promo/CMP pick (Previous: 1 pick + 1 promo)
* Legendary Donator: 3 picks 1 promo/CMP pick (Previous: 2 picks + 1 promo)

For complete details, visit the Donations Guide. If you have any further questions about donating, feel free to contact ★ Cless or Kora ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ!

Boo!


In other news, we understand there has been some confusion regarding the fate of unused LegacyGenesisGhosts. The following is a clarification:

Given the confusion, we have decided that unused LegacyGenesisGhosts will not be deleted. However, LegacyGenesisGhost will be re-released in some fashion that is yet to be decided, probably as a promo after the event. It could be a short promo (12 hours - 1 day) or even longer. Any that are held on to will retain the Hoopa's Haunted House place obtained distinct from the new LegacyGenesisGhosts. We make no guarantees about where it will end up in overall rarity other than that it will exceed at least 100ig overall. If you care about its ultimate rarity, hold onto it at your own risk.

We understand not everybody will be happy with this compromise, but we ask that players try to be respectful about it and avoid starting any drama.

October 25: Halloween Event!

BOO! Happy Halloween!

The annual Trick-or-Treat has begun, and the Halloween Event is here!


Search for Tricks and Treats by mapping, battling, and mining!
They can be exchanged on the Halloween Event Shop for spooky prizes!
You have a chance of finding one each click!

Purple Tricks/Treats appear primarily on the maps (Legendary Areas).
Orange Tricks/Treats appear primarily by winning battles.
White Tricks/Treats appear primarily by mining.


A special Halloween event map has appeared: Hoopa's Haunted House, designed by Nonexistent User! Explore this spawnling mansion for rare and special Pokemon! Hoopa's Haunted House is a test run for the upcoming feature Hoopa's Ring. Good luck!


Finally, if you find LegacyGenesisGhost at Hoopa's Haunted House, exchange it for a spin of the grand Prize Wheel at the Ultra Wormhole! Click here to preview the wheel.


Even more is to come in this year's Halloween Event, so keep an eye out!


A huge thanks to the artists & others for their work on this year's Halloween Event art and planning! ♥ Remember that you can view who created or designed a sprite by visiting the Amount Viewer, the new Art Credits page, or by visiting an artist's profile under the [ Credits ] tab!
