Client Update — v12.0.2.8
Launcher v1.0.1.0

The latest client update is now available — open the launcher to update. Here's what's new:

Action Bars


• Build your own action bars: make as many as you want, horizontal or vertical, resize them and choose how many slots each has, then drag them anywhere and lock them in place. Every bar is saved per character.

• Drop your moves onto a slot and cast them with a click. Each slot shows the move's cooldown and a type-colored icon, and shares the same hotkeys you already use.

• Drop items straight from your bag onto a slot: click to use them, and the count updates live as you use or pick them up — it even counts items sitting inside closed bags.

• Need another bar? A new button next to the chat controls creates one whenever you want.




WASD Movement Mode


• A new optional way to play: move with W, A, S and D while the chat stays out of your way. Turn it on in Options > Game, or with the small toggle above the chat — it's off by default, so nothing changes unless you want it to.

• Fight without the mouse: one key attacks the nearest target, and another pair cycles through enemies in your battle-list order.

• Move diagonally by holding two direction keys together, or with Q, E, Z and C for the four corners.

• Auto cast: a single key rotates through the moves you choose, automatically skipping any your Pokemon can't use right now or that are still on cooldown.

• Press Enter to chat and you're back to walking the instant you send or hit Escape. Every key can be remapped from the "Configure controls..." button, and your setup is saved.


Moves Window Transparency


• You can now make the Moves window see-through: open its settings with the small gear icon and drag the new Opacity slider to fade the window's frame as much as you like.

• Only the frame fades — your moves and their text stay perfectly sharp — so the window blends into your screen while everything you need stays easy to read.

• Your setting is saved and comes back automatically every time you log in.


Repair Fix


• Fixed the client's Repair failing for some players whose game folder sat in a path with special characters — for example an accented Windows username. Repair now works no matter what characters are in your folder path.


These are big changes, and a few issues may have slipped through unnoticed. If you run into any problem — or just have feedback — please let us know.

Stream Recordings & Clips

Every stream you broadcast in-game is now recorded, and every player can clip their last minute of play at any time — camera on or off. Recordings and clips live in one place, can be replayed inside the client, downloaded, and shared with the community on a new page of the website.

Recording your streams

• Turn the camera on (broadcast mode) and the server records your stream automatically. Nothing to install, nothing to configure, and zero cost for your client: the recording happens entirely on the server.

• A recording captures exactly what a spectator of your stream sees: the map around you, creatures, effects, names and health bars, chat bubbles. Your UI, inventory and private messages are never part of it.

• Automatic recordings are kept for 30 days. Streams shorter than 60 seconds are discarded, and a very long stream is split into files of up to 4 hours.

Clips

• The server keeps the last 60 seconds of every online player in memory. Press the new Clip button (next to the Discord and Twitch buttons) or use the Easy clip hotkey from the Hotkeys window, and that minute becomes a recording of its own, marked with a CLIP tag.

• Clips work with the camera off, so you never miss a play you didn't plan to stream. Nothing is written to disk until you press the button, and there is a 30-second cooldown between clips.

• A clip is a recording like any other: same 30-day retention, same save, share, download and replay options.

My Recordings

Right-click the camera button to open the My Recordings window.





• Server tab: everything the server holds for you, newest first, with duration, size, tags (REC, CLIP, SAVED, SHARED, VIDEO) and when an automatic recording expires.

• Save up to 20 recordings permanently, with a name of your choice. Rename or Unsave them at any time; unsaved recordings go back to the 30-day rule.

• Share a saved recording to publish it on the website; Unshare hides it again. Web opens its page in your browser.

• Download copies the recording file to your computer. The Local tab lists your downloaded files, and Play opens them in the built-in player: pause, 0.5x to 4x speed, fast-forward and restart. A downloaded clip starts right at the beginning of the clipped minute.

• Delete removes a recording (or a downloaded file) for good.

The community page

Shared recordings appear at https://www.padventures.org/index.php/p/v/recordings: thumbnail, title, votes, downloads and a video player. The video is generated by the server shortly after you share (the page shows "processing" until it is ready), and anyone can also download the original recording file to watch it in their client.

The title of a shared recording goes through an automatic review before it is listed. If it is rejected, the recording is unshared and the reason is shown in your recordings window — rename it and share again.

Limitations and notes

• The in-client replay shows everything exactly as the game does. The website video is a re-rendering of the recording and skips a few client-side effects: night and cave darkness (videos are rendered at full brightness on purpose), outfit glow and outline effects, auras and wings, medals and target markers.

• Recording files can only be played in the Padventures client.

• A shared recording is public: anyone can watch and download it. Unshare it at any time to take it off the page.

• Requires the latest client — the launcher updates it automatically.


Found a bug or have a suggestion? Reply in this thread.

We're currently performing an emergency maintenance.

We don't know exactly how long it will take, but we're doing our best to bring everything back online as quickly as possible.

Once the maintenance is over, we'll activate some extra rates for the weekend.

Thanks for your patience!

Fishing Systems — every catching tool, one page

We just launched a new section on the website: Fishing Systems — a complete, always-accurate guide to every catching tool in the game: Fishing rods, Bug Net, Fiery Fisher Rod, Ice Hammer, Lead Pickaxe, Magnetic Detector and Ghost Detector.



• Pick a tool and equip baits to see exactly which Pokemon that combination can find — pools update live as you change your selection.

• Shiny and special pools are shown with their real conditions (special baits, skill requirements, locations and more).

• Treasures are listed for the rods that can fish them, sorted by rarity.

• Find Pokemon: search any Pokemon and get the best tool and bait combinations to hunt it, best options first.

• Everything is displayed with real in-game sprites, and the data comes straight from the game server — so the page is always up to date with the live game.


Check it out under Resources → Fishing Systems:Happy hunting!

Hey everyone!

I noticed that a lot of you were asking AIssa about leveling spots — and AIssa simply didn't know: that knowledge wasn't written down anywhere. The best hunting spots live in the heads of experienced players, so I came up with a solution: give the community a place to write them down.

Introducing the Community Leveling Guide: https://leveling.padventures.org

How it works


• Type your level and you get every community answer that covers it, ranked by votes — best answers first.

• Each answer covers a level range and can include a pin on the world map (with a built-in map viewer) and a recommended team, shown with their sprites.

• Reading and searching is open to everyone — no login needed.

• To post answers or vote, sign in with your game account (no new registration). A character of level 50+ is required to participate.


And yes — AIssa learns from it. Everything published in the guide feeds AIssa, so when someone asks "where do I level up between 10 and 40?", she now answers with your spots and links straight to them.

This guide is by the community, for the community. How useful it becomes depends entirely on you: please share your hunting spots — and above all, if an answer helped you, vote it up. Votes are what push the best information to the top, for players and for AIssa alike.

Happy hunting!

Trainers,

Say hello to AIssa, our new assistant bot on Discord! Ask her game questions in plain words and she answers from the official sources.

What she can answer


• Where pokemon spawn (interactive map data)

• Abilities, held items, TMs, proficiencies, berries, boxes and NPC sell prices

• Game rules

• News, changelog and current events or promotions

• Anything covered by the official wiki (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish)


How to use her


• Ask in the dedicated AIssa channel on our Discord server

• Ask one clear question and name the pokemon, item or topic — she replies in your language (English, Spanish, Portuguese or Polish)

• Limits per player: 1 question per minute, 6 per hour, 24 per day

• A ⚡ at the end means the answer was served from cache (a previously generated answer to the same or a very similar question); a ? means the answer was reviewed and locked by the staff


Keep in mind


• AIssa is still in training — she can make mistakes. Verify important answers through the links she cites.

• She cannot help with account problems, bans, payments or password recovery — contact the staff for those.


See you in game!

Padventures is introducing a brand-new monthly competition: Monthly Top Players. Every month, on every world, the players who stand out the most get crowned and rewarded — no matter how you like to play.

How it works

• At the end of each month, on each world (Diamond and Platinum), we rank the top 3 players in 14 categories, based on how much each player racked up that month.

• The winners are announced on our Discord.

• Rankings reset at the start of every month — each month is a fresh race.

Medals

• The top 3 of each category earn a medal — gold, silver or bronze — shown above their character's name for the whole month.

• You can place in several categories at once and carry every medal you earn.

Experience bonus

Every medal you carry grants an experience bonus that lasts as long as you hold it (the whole month), and they stack:


• Gold — +5% exp

• Silver — +4% exp

• Bronze — +3% exp

Place in multiple categories and the bonuses add together.

The 14 categories

• Experience

• Online time

• Catches

• Shiny / cloned catches

• Duels

• Golden Tower

• Dungeons

• Fishing

• Steps

• Valuable loot

• Pokémon boxes

• Bosses

• Mini-bosses

• Megas


Whether you grind experience, hunt shinies, duel, fish, or clear bosses — there's a category for your playstyle. The first winners will be crowned at the end of the month. Good luck, and see you on the ladder!

Summer Hunt Event 2026

The sun is out and the hunt is on! Embark on a journey across the world hunting wild Pokemon — and face the new Summer Bosses.

How it works


• Open the PokeSummer Store with the !summer_tokens command and claim your free mini boss charm (summer 2026) — one per player.

• Equip the charm as a held item on a Pokemon in your team.

• Every time you defeat a wild Pokemon of level 75 or higher found on the map, there is a chance it will transform into a random Summer Boss: Summer Jolteon, Summer Glaceon, Summer Butterfree, Summer Riolu, Summer Psyduck, Summer Feraligatr or Summer Solrock.

• Defeat the Summer Boss to earn 1–3 PokeSummer Tokens.


Rules


• Summer Tokens only drop from wild Pokemon found on the map — Pokemon from systems such as Bug Net, detectors or fishing don't count.

• The token drop goes to the player who dealt the most damage to the Summer Boss.

• PokeSummer Tokens cannot be dropped or traded.


Rewards
The PokeSummer Store will be stocked during the event — token costs will be balanced after the first week, once we see how many tokens you have collected. Expect exclusive rewards, including a brand new Pokemon: Applin — with a chance to get Shiny Applin!

Good luck, and happy hunting!
