Additional Expansions
Many previously useless or unrewarding mechanics have been reworked.
Secret Dens
- Secret Bases have been redesigned as Secret Dens, mini-dungeons containing rare Pokémon and items.
- Pokémon found in Secret Dens have a chance of possessing their Hidden Abilities.
Pokémon Contests, NPC Trades, Safari Zone, and More
- Pokémon can consume unlimited Pokéblocks, removing the limitations imposed by berry types and the number of available NPCs.
- The first time a Pokémon wins a Contest, you earn a cash prize.
- Pokémon obtained through NPC trades can be customized like any other Pokémon and always hold a Lucky Egg.
- Pokéblock Feeders in the Safari Zone attract Pokémon with Hidden Abilities.
- The Trick House offers improved rewards.
Altering Caves
- Both Altering Caves have been completely redesigned into unique locations.
Guaranteed Acquisition
- All regular Pokémon are repeatably obtainable.
- All legendary Pokémon are resilient. If an encounter ends without capture, the Pokémon returns the following day.
- As a result, it is impossible to accidentally lock a save file out of completing the Pokédex.
Expanded Weather System: Fog
Fog is now a fully supported weather condition, with unique interactions involving moves, abilities, types, and Pokémon forms.
- Accuracy: Fog reduces accuracy to 80% instead of 60%. Dark-type Pokémon and Pokémon with Prowler are unaffected.
- Prowler (New Ability): Doubles Speed in fog.
- Ominous Veil (New Ability): Summons fog upon entering battle.
- Murky Rock (New Item): Extends the duration of fog summoned by Enshroud.
- Enshroud (New Move): Summons fog.
- Type Interactions: Ghost-type moves are boosted, while Fairy-type moves are weakened.
- Moonlight: Fog is now Moonlight’s favorable weather condition.
- Moonblast: Unaffected by fog’s Fairy-type damage reduction.
- Weather Ball and Castform: Both fully support fog, including Castform’s corresponding form.
Expanded Battle Mechanics
Mega Evolution, Dynamax, and Terastallization require their associated held items and share a once-per-battle transformation restriction. Z-Moves use a separate mechanic.
Mega Evolution
- Retains its established functionality.
- All G-Max forms of fully evolved Pokémon have been converted into Mega Evolutions.
Dynamax
- Doubles the Pokémon’s HP.
- Retains access to unique G-Max moves.
- Requires holding a Dynamax Core.
Z-Moves
- All Z-Crystals have been consolidated into one universal Z-Crystal.
- The universal Z-Crystal allows any of the holder’s moves to be upgraded.
- Using a Z-Move consumes 5 PP from its base move.
- Z-Moves always land critical hits.
Terastallization
- Requires holding a Tera Shard corresponding to the desired Tera type.
Party-Wide Support Abilities
Among the many expanded moves, items, and abilities, several abilities provide unique team-wide support effects.
These abilities benefit eligible teammates without applying their bonuses to the ability holder.
- Serenity: Increases teammates’ secondary-effect activation chances by 50%.

- Field Medic: Restores 5% of maximum HP per turn to active teammates.

- Dynamic Environment: Dynamic time of day and weather systems.
- Trainer Improvements: Every trainer team has been handcrafted or retouched.
- Expanded TM and Tutor Compatibility: TMs and Move Tutors can teach Pokémon directly from storage Boxes rather than only the active party.
