Pokemon Shuffle |OT| Every Day I'm Shuffling
- Thread starter BooJoh
- Start date
I had banette instead of gengar and nidoking instead of scizor (gengar might've made it easier for me lol)
otherwise, it was the same and around the same levels
how are you starting the round? do you try to get rid of the top ice parts first?
So you're saying they're gonna outright screw us over next week? :T

Shaymin was way easy. Use Glalie. Clear 5 of the 6 top barriers, then the bottom, then mega evolve, then you combo like mad.
I beat it without even trying the first time, then with 8 moves left when I made an effort.

Ooh we have a repeat of the Mew situation on our hands
Confirmed!
Just used a Complexity-1 (the free that was given) for the first time ever in the Mewtwo EX stage... holy shit, more than 1 minute left, caught at 61% and of course an S Rank.
I felt like I cheated a bit :| I now understand the outstanding scores in the competitions for the gems...

Nice. I just tried it now and, yeah, repeatable 1000 coins : D
Yes, I went for the ones on top. After 4 more tries and a great ball I caught it. It was not ideal, but at least it's a good Pokémon. Good that the daily Pokémon today is useless, so I can focus on grinding.
Edit: Shaymin is giving 1k everytime you beat it? hohohoho here we go bruhs.

Only once per day.
They can't even fuck up right... lol.
Shhhhhhhhh
New patch is live. Version 1.2.0
You now always have 5 regenerating hearts, even if you have more than 5 hearts in Shuffle, so you won't wear down beyond the initial 5 unless you choose to
They also added showing the level and experience of Pokémon when you bring them via optimize

A New Item added too.
EDIT: Not every Mega gets the same max candy either. Lucario is 4, Slowbro is 2

very nice
Is that suppose to be Rare Candy?A New Item added too.
Bah, STILL updating for me. Is there an eShop listing for the update? If so, does it mention anything specific about the newest update?

So, since I updated to 1.2, I'm getting a "Failed to retrieve data for check-in" error. This happening to anyone else?
Caddywompus
Member
Just head to the eshop for the Update, all checking in does is tell you there's an update on the eshop.
EDIT: Maybe you need to check in too for extra data... apparently Victini was added but he's not in my list.
Pokemaniac
Member
You misunderstand, this is after updating via the eShop.
Caddywompus
Member
Oh sorry. Just keep trying, everyone is attempting to update at the same time.
EDIT: Heads up, fight Shaymin before the update and after for 1,000 coins each time.
Yep it seems like you can store a max of 10 now.
Not sure what the rare candy thing is, it looks like all pokemon with megastones it though in varying amounts. Blastoise 0/4, Ampharos 0/7, Altaria 0/6, Kangaskhan 0/8, Sableye 0/8, Lucarionite 0/4, Slowbro 0/2, Gengar 0/1, Mawile 0/7, Glalie 0/6, Aerodactyl 0/7, Mewtwo 0/5, Banette 0/8. Not sure what that is but it seems to be loosely tied to how many matches it takes to mega evolve at first glance.

It seems that I've gotten the extra data with Victini, but I can't get the daily 500 coins.
Anyone know if it's safe to delete this game's extra data?

Hahaha, you can get 1,000 coins AGAIN from Shaymin? I'll have to try that out.
Looks like you gotta re-check in as it mentions there's extra data. Can't even access the Special stages until you do so, even if you already checked in earlier for the day.
Edit: Oh hey, they fixed the glitch where Mewtwo wouldn't show up if you searched for Pokemon with Mega Stones.
So of the 15 Mega Pokemon, here's the candy requirements:
Blastoise: 4
Audino: 3
Ampharos: 7
Altaria: 6
Lopunny: 8
Kangaskhan: 8
Sableye: 8
Lucario: 4
Slowbro: 2
Mawile: 7
Gengar: 1
Glalie: 6
Aerodactyl: 7
Mewtwo: 5
Banette: 8
I like how Gengar only needs ONE, yet there's four that require 8. Wonder why the different amounts. Maybe it increases the Mega Effects?

I think it may be somehow related to how many moves it takes to mega evolve. Gengar evolves the quickest so he can only get 1 rare candy, while the ones at 8 must take the most matches?
Not sure how many matches each of the Pokemon take so maybe someone that knows can look into that more, but at first glance that's how it seems to be loosely based on.
Doesn't seem like you can increase rare candy count right now either, took Gengar with me and it didn't increase, then took Mega Kangskhan with me to MK stage and activated its mega ability, didn't increase it either.

So this happens when you catch a new Pokemon now.
Also, I'm still having check in issues, if anyone has any advice.
I'm having no issues checking in, have you tried restarting your router? may be a problem on your end.

That's a good theory but Lucario's # would be lower than someone like Slowbro if that's the case.
Hmmm maybe not then.
Also saw this on reddit:
WARNING Home button trick was removed, if you need it for an Expert stage do it before updating.
Serebii reports something called Super Catch Power (doubles chance after Great Ball, seems to be randomly available)

While I can't really reset the router because I'm currently technically getting Internet through a school, I have tried doing it on my phone's Internet connection via tethering, and had the same issue.

I'm having the same issue. Update fine and now I can't check in for the day.
Caddywompus

Yep just tried it out, that's bogus. I suck at those timed stages, I don't think I would have won some of them without it. Guess it forces you to spend coins on those EX stages, which I only did for Genesect.
Seems like others have the problem now. Maybe it's a regional problem? UK here.
To be honest I'm glad it got removed as I never used it anyway, at least now it'll be based on skill and I might not have to spend coins.

I'm having the issue in NA.
Timburr stage glitch involving regular versions of Pokemon appearing despite being in their Mega form has been fixed as well.
Edit: Didn't the game originally take you to the newest stage whenever you switched to Expert or Main? I could've sworn whenever I returned to Main after doing a Special Stage, it'd always take me to the newest Pokemon stage, but now it seems it stays at whatever location you were at before leaving. This could be helpful considering how far back Meowth is.

Cool, so stronger versions of existing skills and a few new ones.
And wonder how one would obtain "Mega Speedup", but the theory that more candy required = the longer it takes for the Pokemon to evolve was correct. I wonder if getting 8 for, say, Sableye, would make him evolve as fast as, say, Gengar.
Also yay new Mega Stone to collect. Please let it be move based again.
