Gameplay

Pokémon Shuffle, similar to Pokémon Battle Trozei, is a puzzle game in which players fight against various Pokémon by matching three or more of the same Pokémon from the Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos and Alola regions on their bottom of their screen. Players accomplish this by swapping around Pokémon on the bottom of their screen. Players can take up to four support Pokémon with them, some of which can deal additional damage depending on their type (e.g. matching water-type Pokémon causes extra damage to fire-based opponents). Players progress through each stage by defeating the opposing Pokémon within a set number of moves, after which the player receives in-game coins and their Pokémon gain experience. Upon clearing a stage, players will have a chance to catch the Pokémon; the quicker the player defeats a Pokémon, the higher probability they have of catching it. If the player fails to catch it with their first Pokéball, they can spend coins to use Great Balls with a doubled chance of success, or retry the stage at a later date. Defeating Pokémon trainers earns Mega Stones, which allow certain Pokémon (if they have been successfully caught) to undergo Mega Evolution once a player has matched enough of them during a stage, granting bonus effects when matched. Players can also unlock Expert levels, which require the player to defeat a Pokémon within a time limit using unlimited moves.

The game follows a freemium format in which the player requires hearts to attempt each stage, with the player able to recover up to five hearts by waiting a certain amount of time.[3] Players can also use coins to purchase power-ups, such as extra moves, prior to entering a stage.[3] Extra hearts and coins can be purchased with jewels, which are either earned by defeating trainers or purchased using Nintendo eShop funds.[3] The game supports internet connectivity which offers bonus items and special limited-time stages to those who check in, as well as StreetPass functionality.[4][5]

Release

On January 14, 2015, Pokémon Shuffle was announced by Nintendo as a free-to-play game for the Nintendo 3DS.[6] The game was developed by Japanese studio Genius Sonority.[7] The title was released on February 18, 2015, via download through the Nintendo eShop.[8] In June 2015, a mobile version of the game was announced for Android and iOS.[9] It released in Japan on August 24, 2015,[10] and other territories on August 31, 2015.[11] Post-release, the game has been supported with updates adding new stages and obtainable Pokémon.[12][13][14]

In July 2018, the last Pokémon, Marshadow, was released. Genius Sonority has no plans to add more content.[15]

Reception

Pokémon Shuffle received mixed reviews from the media, scoring 56/100 on Metacritic.[16]

Chris Carter from Destructoid was critical of the game, rating it 3.5/10. In particular he criticized the Hearts system, which requires 30 minutes for a single heart to regenerate. He also criticized the microtransactions, saying, "Anything truly enjoyable about the game is ruined by the microtransactions."[3] Jacob Whritenour of Hardcore Gamer gave the game a more mixed review, scoring it a 3.5 out of 5 and saying "It’s fun and challenging enough to keep Pokémon and puzzle fans entertained," while also criticizing the microtransactions.[20] Morgan Sleeper of Nintendo Life was relatively praising of the game, stating it as "a fantastic match-three puzzle game marred by an uncharacteristically sleazy suite of microtransactions", explaining that "they're simply not worth buying". He did, however, praise the strategy element of the game.[19]

As of July 2017, Pokémon Shuffle has been downloaded 6.5 million times.[21]
