🔧 Maintenance & Upcoming Content Preview 🔧
The server is going down for maintenance on <t:1776868226:F> — here's a preview of the major content coming in this update, from Area Zero and the Cosmetics system to NPC Gyms and a Tournament system.
🛠️ Maintenance Window
Server will be going down for maintenance/updates on <t:1776868226:F>.
Expected downtime is around 4 hours, but no solid ETA can be given as the work includes upgrading the host server (which is out of our hands for that part) alongside pushing major content changes live.
A proper announcement and full changelog will be posted once all the work is done.
🔭 What's Coming
Here's a preview of some of the things arriving in this update:
- Area Zero — now open for catching Paradox Pokémon
- Ultraspace catch rates reworked — rebalanced alongside Area Zero to make UBs/Paradox feel more of an achievement
- Cosmetics system — purchase in-game cosmetics like hats, armour skins, sprays, backpacks, and more
- Quest system — launching with a new player tutorial quest, beginner overworld tasks, and the full NPC Gyms quest in Zenith
- NPC Gyms in Zenith — new AI trainers that are actually challenging, with easy/medium/hard rematch modes and Royal League gauntlet modes
- Community games — Cobblemon racing, arcade machines with Pokémon-themed games like Voltorb Flip, and more
- New GUI warps system — makes teleporting around easier
- New Server Shop NPC at spawn — selling basics like blocks, decorations, starter Poké Balls, low-tier raid vouchers, and low-tier Bottlecaps
- Tournament system — enables automated running of tournaments for smoother events
- And many more bug fixes and changes to be detailed in the full changelog
