'''Special Stages''' (Japanese: '''イベントステージ''' ''Event Stages'') in [[Pokémon Shuffle]] are released periodically, giving access to Pokémon who cannot normally be found in the course of the game. There are a variety of Special Stages including Competitive Stages where players can compete to win special items in addition to many other types of stages making new Pokémon available for capture.
{{incomplete|2=In other languages, image}}
A '''special stage''' (Japanese: '''イベントステージ''' ''event stage'') is a type of [[Stage (Shuffle)|stage]] in [[Pokémon Shuffle]] that is made available for a limited time, usually giving access to Pokémon that cannot otherwise be found in the {{DL|Stage (Shuffle)|Main stage}}s or [[Expert Stages]]. There are many different kinds of special stages, some of which have formats that are significantly different from standard stages.  


Special Stages are available for those who complete the first 11 stages of the game, and are downloaded during the check in process, and can only be played during the event period. All Special Stages use "SP" as their stage number. They have a first clear payout of 200 coins, in addition to any bonuses given out for clearing the stage. Stages are available to be played from 06:00 UTC of the first day of the event period until 06:00 UTC of the last day of the event period.
Special stages are downloaded when the player uses the {{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|Check in}} function, which appears after clearing the first 11 stages of the game, and chooses to update to the latest version. Each stage can only be played during its limited event period, after which it will disappear from the special stage screen. Each period begins at 6:00 {{wp|UTC}} on the first day of the event and ends at 6:00 UTC on the last day (excluding {{DL||Competitive Stage}}s, which end at 5:00 UTC). All special stages use "SP" as their stage number. Most have a first clear payout of [[File:Coin Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Coins ×200. Additionally, some stages will grant the player prizes if certain conditions are met.


==Launch Special: Meet Mew==
{{DL|Pokémon Shuffle|Pokémon Shuffle Mobile}} was released on August 25, 2015. Early in its life-cycle, it ran events on a different schedule from the 3DS version of Pokémon Shuffle. Unless explicitly noted, events released after this date can be assumed to be run on both platforms. Events preceding this date were only available on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version.
'''Launch Special: Meet Mew''' (Japanese: '''発売記念イベント ミュウ''' ''Launch Event: Mew'') was the first Special Stage, extending the list of Pokémon from 158 to 159 entries. Mew's stage format on the second release would later be followed for the "Great Challenge" series as well as for the various releases celebrating game download milestones.


Mew's original event ran from February 18 to March 8, 2015 and gave 1,000 Coins upon defeat, once per day. The event was extended as ''"Mew Strikes Again"'' and limited the 1,000 Coin bonus to the first completion only. The second release retained the original stage name. To this point, Mew's original event is the only one outside of weekly events to offer multiple first-time rewards for stage completion; this does not count Manaphy, which is suspected to be based on a programming error.
==End of service==
In February 2018, both the 3DS and Mobile versions of the game received their final content [[Pokémon Shuffle/Version history|update]]: special stages now automatically repeat on a [[Pokémon Shuffle event cycle|24-week schedule]] until 2037, with holiday-related events set to occur at the corresponding times every year. Genius Sonority has no plans to add more content to the game.

On March 31, 2023, at 6:00 AM UTC, the 3DS version's servers were shut down, disabling check in rewards and competitive stages. Since special stages automatically cycle after just a single download, non-competitive stages can still be played after the shutdown if they are already downloaded. However, if the system's date and time settings are changed, then these stages are blocked off: checking in would normally restore them, but that will no longer be an option<ref>https://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2022/08/220819_at01.html</ref>.

==Great Challenge==
==Current stages==
'''Great Challenge''' (Japanese: '''スーパーチャレンジ''' ''Super Challenge'') is the stage name of numerous [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary and Mythical Pokémon]] event stages. In all such stages, there are different rewards given for the initial stage completion regardless of capture, with varying catch rates and move limits. In all cases, the stage can be played as often as the player wishes provided the player has Hearts available in play. There is no additional bonus granted upon successive completions of the same stage.
These types of stages appear in Shuffle's end of service gameplay. They also appeared during its live-service period.

In a Competitive Stage, the player battles an opponent with infinite HP to earn as high a score as possible, which is ranked against other players' scores. Once the event period ends, the player will receive prizes based on their rank. These stages usually feature [[Mega Evolution|Mega-Evolved]] Pokémon and prizes may include the Pokémon's [[Mega Stone]]. The cost per play is usually [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Heart ×1.

Other events released follow the format of "Great Challenge", but they do not use that stage name. These generally are released as celebration milestones or otherwise have unique stage names themselves.
 
===3.5 Million Celebration===
'''3.5 Million Celebration''' (Japanese: '''350万DL記念イベント''' ''3.5 Million DL Commemorative Event'') was a Special Stage released to celebrate 3.5 million downloads. Celebi was made available from April 27 to May 18, 2015 with an event called "''Celebi Enters!''". Players received 1,000 Coins upon their first successful completion of the stage; there were no bonus rewards for further completion.

===4 Million Celebration===
'''4 Million Celebration''' (Japanese: '''400万DL記念イベント''' ''4 Million DL Commemorative Event'') was a Special Stage released to celebrate 4 million downloads. Shaymin was made available from May 25 to June 15, 2015 with an event called ''"Shaymin Enters!"'' Players received 1,000 Coins upon their first successful completion of the stage.
 
While there were no bonus rewards for further completion on the same day, prior to v1.2.1, beating it the first time on subsequent days rewarded the player with another 1000 coins. The wording of the notice attached to the stage and the fact that it was changed in v1.2.1 suggests that this was a bug.

===Ultra Challenge===
===Daily Pokémon===
'''Ultra Challenge''' (Japanese: '''ハイパーチャレンジ''' ''Hyper Challenge'') was a Special Stage where Arceus was made available from July 10 to July 24, 2015 with an event called ''"Arceus Arrives!"'' Players received 1,000 Coins upon their first successful completion of the stage.
{{main|Daily Pokémon}}
The Daily Pokémon features 5 different Pokémon that can each be battled on different days of the week (Monday to Friday). The cost per play is [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Heart ×1.


{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{water color}}; text-align:center; border:3px solid #{{water color light}}"
There were also two variants during the game's live service period: {{DL|Daily Pokémon/Live service period|Special Daily Pokémon}} featured special forms of Pokémon (usually "winking"). {{DL|Daily Pokémon/Live service period|Great Daily}} featured 7 Pokémon instead of 5 (covering every day of the week).

===Hoenn Legends Stages===
===Escalation battle===
The '''Hoenn Legends Stages''' (Japanese: '''映画公開記念ステージ''' ''Movie Public Commemorative Stage'') were a series of stages where the Pokémon of the [[weather trio]] were made available again from July 24 to September 3, 2015 for the Japanese release of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', with the available Pokémon rotating weekly. Rankings from each stage's first week are not carried over to the second week, and all first clear bonuses can be obtained once in both the first and second weeks of each stage.
{{main|Escalation battle}}
An escalation battle changes as it is played: each time it is cleared, the puzzle becomes harder, but the Pokémon will also be easier to catch. They also grant rewards after certain "levels". They often feature {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]].

===High-Speed Challenge===
===High-Speed Challenge===
'''High-Speed Challenge''' (Japanese: '''ハイスピードチャレンジ''' ''High-Speed Challenge'') was a Special Stage where Lugia was made available from August 31 to September 24, 2015 with an event called ''"Lugia Swoops In!"''. Unlike most previous Special Stages involving a single stage with a legendary capture, this stage is timed.
{{main|High-Speed Challenge}}
A High-Speed Challenge has a time-limited format and features powerful Pokémon. Otherwise, they are similar to Great Challenges.

==The Daily Pokémon==
Originally, this format was called "One Chance a Day!" and would usually last for a period of 4 days. A variant of this stage, A Great Chance a Day!, generally increased the catch rate for the featured Pokémon each day. In both types, [[File:Skill Booster personalized.png|20px|link=]] {{DL|List of items (Shuffle)|Personalized Skill Booster}}s can be dropped if the Pokémon was already caught; A Great Chance a Day! stages may drop {{DL|List of items (Shuffle)|Enhancements}} or other items as well.
'''The Daily Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''日替わりポケモン''' ''Daily Pokémon'') is a special event that sometimes takes place during the week, beginning on Monday and ending on Friday. Each promotion offers a different set of Pokémon that can be caught every day during the length of the promotion. The stages are not available on Saturday and Sunday, which is usually used for other events that only occur on weekends. Clearing each stage for the first time in a release period rewards 200 Coins, with subsequent clears obtaining 30 Coins each.


Thus far, there have been four Daily Pokémon events for a total of 20 unique Pokémon (including all five Rotom variants). All events have run in a range from two to four weeks, with two having been re-released for additional runs.
In the game's end of service period, only A Great Chance a Day still appears, with each lasting 7 days. Catch rate no longer increases each day, although the base catch rates are much higher than during the live service period to compensate.


===The Daily Pokémon (#1)===
===Pokémon Safari===
The Daily Pokémon (#1) was initially available for download from February 18 to March 20, 2015. This promotion featured all of the variants of Rotom, each with its own daily stage. All Rotom in this event had the same initial catch rate and move bonus, and all stages gave a limit of 15 moves.
{{main|Pokémon Safari}}
In a Pokémon Safari, several Pokémon can appear, as denoted by a question mark. Whenever a Safari stage is accessed, the player will battle one of the Pokémon that can appear in it, chosen at random. Different Pokémon have different rates of appearance, and there is no way to know which Pokémon will appear before playing - however, the pool of Pokémon that can appear will usually share one [[type]] weakness. The cost per play is [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Heart ×1.


The event returned for additional runs from May 4 to May 16, 2015 and from August 17 to August 29, 2015. As stage clear data resets with new event releases, players could obtain the first time reward again on each stage. With the re-releases, the first clear of each stage rewarded 200 Coins instead of the usual 30 Coins.
===Resource events===
{{main|Resource event}}
Resource events allow the player to reliably obtain certain items or resources ([[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] {{DL|Currency (Shuffle)|Hearts}}, [[File:Coin Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] {{DL|Currency (Shuffle)|Coins}}, or [[experience]]). These events fall broadly into two types: weekly and monthly/yearly. The weekly ones cost [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Heart ×1 to play the first time, while the monthly and yearly ones are free; but after the first play, these stages become locked and can only be played further by spending [[File:Jewel Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] {{DL|Currency (Shuffle)|Jewels}} to unlock them. After a certain number of plays, these stages disappear.


{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{water color}}; text-align:center; border:3px solid #{{water color light}}"
In the game's end of service period, resource events occur weekly and monthly, but no longer yearly. All resource events no longer cost any [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Hearts to play.

===Special Challenge===
! style="background:#{{cute color light}}; {{roundybottom|5px}}" colspan="9" |
{{main|Special Challenge}}

A Special Challenge features Pokémon that were already available in {{DL|Stage (Shuffle)|main stage}}s or [[Expert Stages]], though with a small chance to drop items such as [[File:Raise Max Level.png|20px|link=]] Raise Max Level {{DL|List of items (Shuffle)|Enhancements}}. These stages can be move-limited or time-limited.


===The Daily Pokémon (#2)===
===UB Challenge===
The Daily Pokémon (#2) was available for download from March 23 to April 17, 2015. Unlike the first event, this time five unique Pokémon were made available daily with the catch rate and stage move limit also varying with each Pokémon available; this continued with future events. The Tropius stage also included Coins in the layout of the stage; if matched, the player could acquire a Coin bonus.
{{main|UB Challenge}}
A UB Challenge features [[Ultra Beast]]s. These stages only appear if the player has completed [[Roseus Center|Stage 300]], and they do not permit the use of items. Additionally, the player must pay [[File:Coin Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Coins ×20,000 to unlock the stage for up to 10 plays. These stages are move-limited.


This release was available for a second run from June 8 to June 20, 2015.
===Ultra Challenge===
{{main|Ultra Challenge}}
An Ultra Challenge is generally a harder version of [[Great Challenge]]s. Like Great Challenges, the format is move-limited and they feature powerful Pokémon; but the Pokémon usually have higher {{DL|List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number|Attack power table|Attack Power}}.

===The Daily Pokémon (#3)===
===An Evolving Challenge!===
The Daily Pokémon (#3) was available for download from May 18 to June 6, 2015.
'''An Evolving Challenge!''' (Japanese: '''進化チャレンジ''' ''Evolving Challenge'') was limited to the {{p|Tepig}} evolution family. The event stages themselves have all been move-limited, though {{p|Emboar}} is unique in that, similar to {{DL||Escalation Battle}}s, its base catch rate slightly increases every time its stage is cleared.

The Daily Pokémon (#4) was available for download from July 6 to July 18, 2015.
{{main|Commemorative Event}}
Commemorative Event stages were released to celebrate various events and milestones. An event was often released to celebrate every million downloads of the game.


{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{water color}}; text-align:center; border:3px solid #{{water color light}}"
The first Commemorative Event was called Launch Special: Meet Mew (3DS) or Launch Special Stage (Mobile) and featured {{p|Mew}}.

==Meowth's Coin Mania==
'''Meowth's Coin Mania''' (Japanese: '''ニャース{{tt|で|の is also seen}}コインゲット''' ''{{tt|Nyarth|Meowth}}'s Coin GET'') is a Special Stage that allows a player to obtain a large number of coins in a single playing. The stage is only available once per 24 hour period for which it becomes available. This Meowth cannot be caught.
 
Large numbers of coins coins appear in the stage at the beginning, with more dropping into the stage during gameplay. If the player clears a combination (several groups in one move), Meowth's "disruption" whereby more coins replace tiles currently in the stage; this in turn can trigger an immediate coin match and possibly another combo, meaning multiple "disruptions" can occur without the player using any moves.


The stage disappears upon completion until it can be played again. Pokémon brought into the stage capable of removing distractions will also remove coins from play. Meowth can also still be paralyzed or put to sleep.
===Score Challenge===
A '''Score Challenge''' (Japanese: '''スコアチャレンジ''' ''Score Challenge'') challenges players to score as high as possible against an uncatchable opponent with infinite HP. Each stage has a number of target score thresholds, with rewards associated with each corresponding reward rank. Once the event period ends, the player is awarded all of the rewards for the thresholds that their high score exceeded. The stages cost [[File:Heart Shuffle.png|20px|link=]] Heart ×1 per play, with no limit to the maximum number of attempts within the event period. It was introduced for the first time in July 2017 for Mobile version only.


While a ranking for the stage is displayed upon completion, it is not displayed again afterwards.
{| class="roundtable" style="background:#{{cute color}}; text-align:center; border:3px solid #{{cute color light}}"
 
! style="background:#{{beauty color light}}; {{roundytl|5px}}" colspan="2" | Pokémon
The initial period of availability was from February 21 to March 15, 2015, available on both Saturday and Sunday each week. On March 21, 2015, its availability was extended indefinitely. Starting from version 1.2.1, the stage is only available once each Sunday, with "Tons of Exp. Points" available on Saturdays.

==Competitive Stage==
<div style="margin-top: 5px; display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 10px;"><!--flex OPEN-->
'''Competitive Stage''' (Japanese: '''ランキングステージ''' ''Ranking Stage'') is the stage name of a series of stages involving [[Mega Evolution|Mega-Evolved]] Pokémon. The player battles a Trainer who uses a Mega-Evolved Pokémon and must obtain as high a score as possible. By doing this, players can win a Mega Stone. There are two types of competitive stages: timed stages and fixed-move stages.
<div>
 
{| class="roundtable" style="background:#{{cute color}}; text-align:center; border:3px solid #{{cute color light}}"
Players choosing to play a competitive stage select the stage like any other stage, and must agree to connect to the Internet before playing. Once a connection is confirmed, the player may select Pokémon and items as usual. During the stage, the Pokémon has no HP bar and therefore cannot faint. At the stage's conclusion, the player's is given a "CLEAR" indication and an "S" letter ranking, like in other stages; this happens even if the player makes no moves for a score of 0 in a timed stage. At this point, the score is uploaded to a leaderboard; on successive attempts, this is only done if the player scores a higher score than previous attempts. No experience is rewarded upon stage completion. The S ranking is not displayed again afterwards on the stage select screen.
|+ {{ShImg|150|Mewtwo}} <span id="Mewtwo">'''Mewtwo'''</span>
 
! style="background:#{{beauty color light}}; {{roundytl|5px}}" | Rank
On the stage select screen, after selecting the competitive stage, players may choose to view the Ranking screen, which is unique to this type of stage. Here, players can view the information of the five players currently on top of the leaderboard in their region, as well as the personal high score, placement, and Pokémon used to acquire that score.
! style="background:#{{beauty color light}}" | Target Score
 
! style="background:#{{beauty color light}}; {{roundytr|5px}}" | Rewards
When the challenge ends, prizes are given out to the top-ranking players in each region, with a fixed number of Mega Stone prizes given out for each region. All players who participate but who do not win the Mega Stone instead receive a Jewel, or a Disruption Delay instead in the case of Venusaur's re-release. Starting with Manectric's event, other prizes are given out.
 
====Timed events====
There have so far been seven unique timed competitive stages. Timed stages appear for first-time releases and mark the first opportunity for a player to win the associated Mega Stone. No competitive stage has been re-released with a timer. The player has a set time in which to achieve the highest score possible. Timed stages usually have the Complexity -1 and Disruption Delay items as the only ones available, with the Attack Power ↑ item also being available for Manectric's and Garchomp's stages. <!-- This can be worked into the table notes and this line modified. -->
 
In the update to v1.2.0, updates were made to detect cheating in contest stage submissions in light of scores submitted during the Mega Banette competition.

Every timed event starting with Manectric's has also given additional prizes, attempting to give an incentive for players to try to get a higher score instead of taking a high first score and automatically getting the prize. Scoring within a certain threshold granted an item in addition to the main prize. The rewards were as follows:

====Move-limited events====
So far, only three Mega Stones have received repeat contests for participants who may not have acquired them before. These repeat contests did not use a time limit, instead using a move-limited setup. Therefore, players could take their time and plan their strategy without being rushed, which in turn could provide for higher scoring with a good strategy. The ranking range also is generally increased for these runs, allowing more players the opportunity to place and obtain the prize. Ranking would obtain the player the Mega Stone, with past winners in the ranking acquiring two Jewels. A one Jewel participation prize is still given to non-placing players. It should be noted that, during the Venusaur re-release, players only received the Jewel if they placed and already had the stone, and a Disruption Delay if you didn't place at all.
 
The first Mega Stone event to be redistributed was the Lucarionite, on May 18, 2015. The Mega Start item became available for this event in addition to the Complexity-1 and Disruption Delay. The competition received a third run on July 13, 2015, but with a different stage setup to begin; the only items available this time were the Disruption Delay and the Attack Power ↑ items.
 
The second Mega Stone to be redistributed was the Blastoisinite, starting on June 15, 2015. The Complexity-1 item was not available for this stage; however, the Mega Start, Disruption Delay and Attack Power ↑ items were available.
 
The third Mega Stone to be redistributed was the Vensauriste, with the stage available August 24, 2015. The Mega Start, Distruption Delay, and Attack Power ↑ were the only items available.
 
Starting with Venusaur's re-release, bonus item's have been available like with timed events.

==Pokémon Safari==
'''Pokémon Safari''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンサファリ''' ''Pokémon Safari'') is a special series of five or seven 3-Pokémon stages that have the player randomly battle one of the different opponents when accessed, not telling the player who will be battled until it appears. There is no way to know which Pokémon will appear, leaving players to pick the best possible team to better their chances against any of the opponents. Due to the nature of the stage, the Optimize button is unavailable; players are required to select a team manually before accessing a stage.
 
Thus far, there have been three groups of available Pokémon in the Pokémon Safari making for seventeen unique Pokémon found via this method.
 
Complexity -1 is not available on any of the stages due to being 3-Pokémon stages; all other items (including Attack Power ↑) are available for use.
 
===Pokémon Safari (#1)===
The Pokémon Safari debuted from April 20 to May 2, 2015.

==One chance a day!==
'''One chance a day!''' (Japanese: '''1日ワンチャン!''' ''One day, one chance!'') is a stage that is only available once per 24-hour period, usually for a period of four days. Otherwise, the stage functions like any main stage other than the Attack Up item being available like for other Special Stages.
 
Due to the nature of the stage, if a player were to accidentally reset the 3DS after committing to playing the stage, the stage would not reappear until the next period of availability.
 
The event debuted on May 7, 2015 under the event "''Seize Hold of {{p|Pinsir}}''" in the 1.1.11 update. On July 6, 2015, "''Jump on a Chance for {{p|Jirachi}}''" became the second such stage.

==Tons of Exp. Points==
'''Tons of Exp. Points''' (Japanese: '''ビクティニで経験値ゲット''' ''Victini's Experience Points GET'') is a Special Stage that allows a player to obtain a large number of experience points in a single playing. The event ''"Exp. Points from {{p|Victini}}!"'' became available on May 30, 2015. The 7-move stage provides an opportunity for the player to catch the Mythical Pokémon, but also operates in the same mechanic as "Meowth's Coin Mania" and "One chance a day!" in that the stage disappears after being played at any time during the 24-hour period of its availability.
 
The stage is available every Saturday for 24 hours (Saturday 6:00 AM to Sunday 6:00 AM UTC time).

==Escalation Battle==
'''Escalation Battle''' (Japanese: '''レベルアップバトル''' ''Level-Up Battle'') is a stage that has many levels and special rewards to it. It always stars a single Pokémon. As a player continues through the stage levels, the Pokémon becomes easier to catch over time while the stage gets progressively harder.
 
There is no capture bonus for any remaining moves in these stages. All items are available with the exception of the very first levels in each group, where Disruption Delay cannot typically be used as there are no disruptions.
 
Three Pokémon have been released under the Escalation Battle stage. {{p|Giratina}} was available from June 8 to 22, 2015, and {{p|Cresselia}} was available from July 20 to August 3, 2015. {{p|Darkrai}} became available from August 17 to 31, 2015.
 
At some stage levels, a unique musical track named "BGM_STAGE_BOSS2" is played instead of the regular "BGM_STAGE_LEGEND" theme. This new track is unique to boss mode. During coin level stages, "BGM_STAGE_FUN" is often played instead.

==An Evolving Challenge!==
===Try 'Em Items Stage===
'''An Evolving Challenge!''' (Japanese: '''進化チャレンジ''' ''Evolving Challenge''), so far, appears to be an event focused on the starting Pokémon from the [[Unova]] region. The event debuted with Tepig on July 6, 2015; this was accompanied by an announcement that Pignite would be available sometime in August 2015. With the release of this event, all nine Unova starters (through evolutions) have been added to the in-game Pokémon list, though the Tepig family is the only one catchable at this time.
{{main|Try 'Em Items Stage}}
In a Try 'Em Items Stage, players are allowed to use items for free to capture a Pokémon.

A special stage (Japanese: イベントステージ event stage) is a type of stage in Pokémon Shuffle that is made available for a limited time, usually giving access to Pokémon that cannot otherwise be found in the Main stages or Expert Stages. There are many different kinds of special stages, some of which have formats that are significantly different from standard stages.

Special stages are downloaded when the player uses the Check in function, which appears after clearing the first 11 stages of the game, and chooses to update to the latest version. Each stage can only be played during its limited event period, after which it will disappear from the special stage screen. Each period begins at 6:00 UTC on the first day of the event and ends at 6:00 UTC on the last day (excluding Competitive Stages, which end at 5:00 UTC). All special stages use "SP" as their stage number. Most have a first clear payout of Coin Shuffle.png Coins ×200. Additionally, some stages will grant the player prizes if certain conditions are met.

Pokémon Shuffle Mobile was released on August 25, 2015. Early in its life-cycle, it ran events on a different schedule from the 3DS version of Pokémon Shuffle. Unless explicitly noted, events released after this date can be assumed to be run on both platforms. Events preceding this date were only available on the Nintendo 3DS version.

End of service

In February 2018, both the 3DS and Mobile versions of the game received their final content update: special stages now automatically repeat on a 24-week schedule until 2037, with holiday-related events set to occur at the corresponding times every year. Genius Sonority has no plans to add more content to the game.

On March 31, 2023, at 6:00 AM UTC, the 3DS version's servers were shut down, disabling check in rewards and competitive stages. Since special stages automatically cycle after just a single download, non-competitive stages can still be played after the shutdown if they are already downloaded. However, if the system's date and time settings are changed, then these stages are blocked off: checking in would normally restore them, but that will no longer be an option[1].

Current stages

These types of stages appear in Shuffle's end of service gameplay. They also appeared during its live-service period.

Competitive Stage

Main article: Competitive Stage

In a Competitive Stage, the player battles an opponent with infinite HP to earn as high a score as possible, which is ranked against other players' scores. Once the event period ends, the player will receive prizes based on their rank. These stages usually feature Mega-Evolved Pokémon and prizes may include the Pokémon's Mega Stone. The cost per play is usually Heart Shuffle.png Heart ×1.

Daily Pokémon

Main article: Daily Pokémon

The Daily Pokémon features 5 different Pokémon that can each be battled on different days of the week (Monday to Friday). The cost per play is Heart Shuffle.png Heart ×1.

There were also two variants during the game's live service period: Special Daily Pokémon featured special forms of Pokémon (usually "winking"). Great Daily featured 7 Pokémon instead of 5 (covering every day of the week).

Escalation battle

Main article: Escalation battle

An escalation battle changes as it is played: each time it is cleared, the puzzle becomes harder, but the Pokémon will also be easier to catch. They also grant rewards after certain "levels". They often feature Legendary and Mythical Pokémon.

Great Challenge

Main article: Great Challenge

A Great Challenge has a move-limited format and features a wide variety of powerful Pokémon, including many Legendary and Mythical Pokémon.

High-Speed Challenge

Main article: High-Speed Challenge

A High-Speed Challenge has a time-limited format and features powerful Pokémon. Otherwise, they are similar to Great Challenges.

One Chance a Day!

Main article: One Chance a Day

One Chance a Day! or A Great Chance a Day! stages can only be played once per day. Otherwise, they are similar to Great Challenges.

Originally, this format was called "One Chance a Day!" and would usually last for a period of 4 days. A variant of this stage, A Great Chance a Day!, generally increased the catch rate for the featured Pokémon each day. In both types, Skill Booster personalized.png Personalized Skill Boosters can be dropped if the Pokémon was already caught; A Great Chance a Day! stages may drop Enhancements or other items as well.

In the game's end of service period, only A Great Chance a Day still appears, with each lasting 7 days. Catch rate no longer increases each day, although the base catch rates are much higher than during the live service period to compensate.

Pokémon Safari

Main article: Pokémon Safari

In a Pokémon Safari, several Pokémon can appear, as denoted by a question mark. Whenever a Safari stage is accessed, the player will battle one of the Pokémon that can appear in it, chosen at random. Different Pokémon have different rates of appearance, and there is no way to know which Pokémon will appear before playing - however, the pool of Pokémon that can appear will usually share one type weakness. The cost per play is Heart Shuffle.png Heart ×1.

Resource events

Main article: Resource event

Resource events allow the player to reliably obtain certain items or resources (Heart Shuffle.png Hearts, Coin Shuffle.png Coins, or experience). These events fall broadly into two types: weekly and monthly/yearly. The weekly ones cost Heart Shuffle.png Heart ×1 to play the first time, while the monthly and yearly ones are free; but after the first play, these stages become locked and can only be played further by spending Jewel Shuffle.png Jewels to unlock them. After a certain number of plays, these stages disappear.

In the game's end of service period, resource events occur weekly and monthly, but no longer yearly. All resource events no longer cost any Heart Shuffle.png Hearts to play.

Special Challenge

Main article: Special Challenge

A Special Challenge features Pokémon that were already available in main stages or Expert Stages, though with a small chance to drop items such as Raise Max Level.png Raise Max Level Enhancements. These stages can be move-limited or time-limited.

UB Challenge

Main article: UB Challenge

A UB Challenge features Ultra Beasts. These stages only appear if the player has completed Stage 300, and they do not permit the use of items. Additionally, the player must pay Coin Shuffle.png Coins ×20,000 to unlock the stage for up to 10 plays. These stages are move-limited.

Ultra Challenge

Main article: Ultra Challenge

An Ultra Challenge is generally a harder version of Great Challenges. Like Great Challenges, the format is move-limited and they feature powerful Pokémon; but the Pokémon usually have higher Attack Power.

Live service-only stages

These types of stages only appeared before Shuffle entered its end of service period.

An Evolving Challenge!

An Evolving Challenge! (Japanese: 進化チャレンジ Evolving Challenge) was limited to the Tepig evolution family. The event stages themselves have all been move-limited, though Emboar is unique in that, similar to Escalation Battles, its base catch rate slightly increases every time its stage is cleared.

Commemorative Event

Main article: Commemorative Event

Commemorative Event stages were released to celebrate various events and milestones. An event was often released to celebrate every million downloads of the game.

The first Commemorative Event was called Launch Special: Meet Mew (3DS) or Launch Special Stage (Mobile) and featured Mew.

Score Challenge

A Score Challenge (Japanese: スコアチャレンジ Score Challenge) challenges players to score as high as possible against an uncatchable opponent with infinite HP. Each stage has a number of target score thresholds, with rewards associated with each corresponding reward rank. Once the event period ends, the player is awarded all of the rewards for the thresholds that their high score exceeded. The stages cost Heart Shuffle.png Heart ×1 per play, with no limit to the maximum number of attempts within the event period. It was introduced for the first time in July 2017 for Mobile version only.
