This week’s challenges for Pokémon Shuffle are all repeats, but that doesn’t mean that players shouldn’t check them out. First up is Mega Abomasnow, which is, as usual for Megas, a competitive stage with other players. The coveted Abomasite will go to the top 22,000 players in North America, 15,000 in Europe and 60,000 in Japan. Ranking high in that bracket will earn you some extra prizes, with the top 3,500 in North America, 2,500 in Europe and 10,000 in Japan earning a Mega Speedup, and the top 700 in North America, 500 in Europe and 2,000 in Japan earning 2 Mega Speedups. The top 30,000 in North America, 20,000 in Europe and 80,000 in Japan who don’t qualify for the Abomasite will get an Attack Power, and all other players will get a Disruption Delay. (Note: Since this is a repeat run, players who already have an Abomasite will receive a Raise Max Level instead). This challenge runs until June 7th.

Furthermore, until June 14th, the Keldeo, Infernape, and Giratina stages are all getting repeat runs. While the first two are more traditional stages, the Giratina stage is an Escalation battle, earning players rewards for hitting certain levels throughout the fight (specifically, an EXP Booster S at Level 5, a Disruption Delay at Level 30, a Mega Speed Up at Level 50, an EXP Booster M at Level 85 and a Raise Max Level at Level 100).

Good luck out there, and keep working to be the very best!
