Seasonal Shiny Pokemon
Hunt smarter — mark your targets and earn powerful bonuses against them.
Hello everyone!
We are excited to introduce the Prey System: pick specific Pokemon as your prey and receive a strong bonus against them for 2 hours — extra experience, extra damage, better catch rate and more. You will find the new Prey button in the top menu.
How it works
• Open the Prey window. You have 2 prey windows (a third one can be unlocked — see below).
• Each window offers a list of 9 random Pokemon. Click one to make it your prey — selecting is free.
• Your prey stays active for 2 hours of real time (the timer keeps running while you are offline).
• While active, you receive a bonus that applies against that Pokemon and its whole family — regular, Shiny, Cloned and other variants all count.
• When the prey expires, the window gets a fresh list of 9 and you can pick again. Your bonus type is kept.
Whenever one of your bonuses actually triggers, you will see a PREY! indicator over your character.
The 5 bonuses
Each prey window carries one bonus type. The first time you use a window its bonus is rolled at random, and the type then sticks to that window until you change it.
• Player Experience +50% — you gain 50% more experience from killing your prey.
• Pokemon Experience +50% — your Pokemon gains 50% more experience from killing your prey.
• Damage +20% — your Pokemon deals 20% more damage to your prey.
• Catch +50% — 50% better catch chance against your prey. Stacks with your other catch bonuses.
• Defense −30% — you and your Pokemon take 30% less damage from your prey.
Rerolling your list
Don't like the 9 options? Reroll them:
• Free reroll: every window gets one free reroll per day, released with the daily reset. The button shows Free when available.
• Paid rerolls: unlimited, paid with money. The price scales with your level (25 HD per level up to 400, then +15 per level up to 700, then +7 per level up to 1200 — it caps there).
• Rerolling a window that has an active prey discards that prey and shows you a fresh list — the game will ask for confirmation first.
Prey Wildcards
Prey Wildcards are the special currency of the system.
How to get them:
• Premium weekly bonus: premium accounts automatically receive 3 wildcards every week with the daily reset.
• Buy with diamonds: 5 wildcards for 5 diamonds, or 100 for 95, straight from the Prey window.
• Prey wildcard items: found in battle passes and events — use the item to add it to your balance.
What to spend them on:
• Pick ANY Pokemon (5 wildcards): skip the random list and choose your prey directly from the full list — with a search box.
• Change bonus (1 wildcard): reroll the bonus type of an active prey. You always get a different type, and the timer is not touched.
• Lock Prey (3 wildcards per renewal): see below.
Tip: you can also turn your wildcard balance back into items — Ctrl+click the wildcard button in the Prey window.
Lock Prey
Found the perfect prey and don't want to lose it? Enable Lock Prey on the active window. Every time the 2 hours run out, the prey renews itself automatically for 3 wildcards — even while you are offline. If you ever run out of wildcards, the lock is released and you are warned.
The third window
A third prey window can be unlocked for 100 diamonds. Purchasing it requires a premium account, but once unlocked it is yours permanently — it keeps working even if your premium expires.
The Prey Mirror
Normally the same Pokemon can never appear in two prey windows at once. The new prey mirror item bends that rule: carry one when you reroll a list and a Pokemon from another of your windows may appear in the new list as well — letting you run two different bonuses against the same Pokemon (for example Player Experience AND Catch on the same target).
The mirror is consumed on the reroll, only one duplicate can exist across your windows at a time, and the item is marketable.
Good to know
• Your prey covers the entire family: bonuses apply to Shiny, Cloned and every other variant of the chosen Pokemon.
• The same Pokemon never shows up in two of your windows (lists or actives) — unless you use a prey mirror.
• Prey bonuses are personal: in a party, only the player who owns the prey receives the bonus.
• The 2-hour timer is real time and keeps running offline — plan your hunts!
• Selecting a prey from the list is always free; the list is consumed when you pick, and a new one arrives when the prey expires or you reroll.
