Pokemon Shuffle

For the last week on Pokémon Shuffle players from all over the world have been competing to be one of the top 20,000 in America and Europe/Australia (50,000 in Japan) to get their chance at obtaining a Lucarionite. The rules were simple: face off against a Mega Lucario in a special event and rack up as high of a score as you could within 1 minute. You could play as many times as you wanted, as long as you had hearts available.

Now that the event is over, Lucarionites are going out to the top players of the competition. Unfortunately, I placed 33,201 out of the 250k+ entrants (I swear I was around 9,000 three days ago!), but I was still given a Jewel just for trying – so all is well!

Were you one of the top 20,000 in your region to obtain a Lucarionite? Let us know!

Two weeks ago we reported that Pokémon Shuffle had surpassed 1 million downloads within two weeks of launch. Three weeks later, Pokémon Shuffle has now reached 2,500,000 downloads.

This is huge news for the free Pokémon themed puzzler, and those numbers will surely continue to grow.

As a token of appreciation, all Pokémon Shuffle players are being gifted a free Disruption Delay. For those unaware, Disruption Delay helps prevent the enemy Pokémon from causing any inconveniences — such as freezing a few tiles, swapping out your party for other unwanted Pokémon, adding wooden blocks, etc. — for a certain duration.

Personally, Pokémon Shuffle has been a ton of fun for me since it came out. As someone who was heavily addicted to the frenetic match-three twist of Pokémon Trozei, this certainly provides tons of entertainment in a well put together fashion that isn’t overwhelming in its UI, mechanics, or anything of the sort. I find it hard to believe people have actually been spending money on Pokémon Shuffle when it is perfectly enjoyable and feasible to get through its entirety without having to spend a dime.

How have you been enjoying Pokémon Shuffle? Let us know in the comments below!

You can grab Pokémon Shuffle for free via the Nintendo eShop

Unova’s Mythical Water and Fighting type Pokémon is now available to be caught in Pokémon Shuffle! Once you check in to Pokémon Shuffle, Keldeo will be made available right away after a quick update. Whether you’re able to catch Keldeo or not, the first time you clear the stage you’ll be rewarded with 5,000 coins. This is a pretty huge reward considering the average battle gives you around 300 coins.

Pokémon Shuffle has been delivering new events every week since its launch, allowing players to catch the likes of Mew, Kyogre, and Rotom. This week is no different.

If you go to Check In on Pokémon Shuffle, you’ll be given the chance to face Mega Lucario. This one’s a little bit different, as once you defeat Mega Lucario, you’ll be awarded with the Lucarionite and a Jewel. There is one catch, however: Only the top 20,000 players in the west and 50,000 in Japan will be able to receive the Lucarionite for their Lucario (Lucario can be obtained through the special EX stages). As of this writing, we don’t know if the Lucarionite will be given by any other means, so Check In as soon as you can!

The Mega Lucario event will run for one week only.

Third generation legendary Kyogre is now available for capture in Pokémon Shuffle when you check in. This special event to catch Kyogre will last until March 23rd, so get it while there’s still time!

Another thing to note, since the launch of Pokémon Shuffle, we’ve had a previous event in which you could catch Mew for the first three weeks following Pokémon Shuffle’s release, but it seems as though the chance to catch Mew has now been prolonged by two weeks. If you haven’t been able to catch Mew yet, now you have another shot!

The patch will require you to re-download the software and will use 686 blocks to do so. You will then have to check-in to re-download the Event stages, which will then allow the patch to be complete.
