Special Stages (Japanese: イベントステージ Event Stages) are stages in Pokémon Shuffle that are made available periodically 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 200 Coins. 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 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 3DS version.

Commemorative Events

Commemorative Event (Japanese: 記念イベント Commemorative Event) is a type of Special Stage that covers events that celebrate various events and milestones.

"Diancie Is Set to Dazzle!" was the first event to be released under this listing, celebrating 5 million downloads of the 3DS version. A bonus reward of 1 Jewel was given upon the first successful completion of the stage.

the "Mew Manifests!" event was repeated under this listing in the 3DS version from September 18 to 28, 2015 to celebrate the launch of Pokémon Shuffle Mobile. The same event was repeated under the new title "Mew Appears" from February 15 to March 8, 2016 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Pokémon Red and Blue, and from August 9 to 23, 2016 in the 3DS version to celebrate 6 million downloads of the game in August 2016.

The "Celebi Enters!" event was released in both versions from October 26 to November 9, 2015 to celebrate Pokémon Shuffle Mobile reaching 4 million downloads. A bonus reward of 1,000 Coins was given upon the first successful completion of the stage. The event was later repeated in the Mobile version (renamed to "Celebi Appears!") to celebrate 8 million downloads in July 2016.

The "A Legendary Opportunity" and "Shaymin Appears" events, which featured Mewtwo and Shaymin, respectively were released to celebrate Pokémon Shuffle Mobile reaching 5 million downloads. The goal behind Mewtwo's stage was to allow every player to be able to catch Mewtwo for free. As such, all Items were free.

The "Commemorative Event" event, featuring Manaphy, was released on the Mobile version in April 2016 to celebrate Pokémon Shuffle Mobile reaching 7 million downloads.

The "Commemorative Events" event, featuring Pikachu and Shaymin, were released on the Mobile version in September 2016 to celebrate Pokémon Shuffle Mobile reaching 10 million downloads.

Launch Special: Meet Mew

Launch Special: Meet Mew (Japanese: 発売記念イベント ミュウ Launch Event: Mew) was one of the first Special Stages released in Pokémon Shuffle (alongside The Daily Pokémon (#1)), meant to commemorate the launch of the game. In the 3DS version, the event initially ran from February 18 to March 9, 2015 and gave a bonus of 1,000 Coins upon defeat, once per day. After that period ended, the event was extended to March 23, 2015 as "Mew Strikes Again" and limited the 1,000 Coin bonus to the first completion only.

In Pokémon Shuffle Mobile, this stage (called Launch Special Stage (Japanese: 配信記念ステージ Distribution Commemorative Stage)) was initially made available from August 24 to September 28, 2015 to commemorate the game's mobile release. This time, the initial bonus reward for clearing the stage was one Jewel. After its period ended, it was also extended to October 12, 2015 under the name "Mew Strikes Again", similar to the 3DS version. The bonus reward for the first clear of this repeat was also one Jewel.

Mew's stage was later repeated for both versions under both the Commemorative Event and the Great Challenge listings.

Competitive Stage

Competitive Stage (Japanese: ランキングステージ Ranking Stage) is a unique kind of Special Stage that features Mega-Evolved Pokémon. In each Competitive Stage, the player battles a Trainer who uses a Mega-Evolved Pokémon, with the goal of obtaining as high a score as possible (the Mega-Evolved Pokémon have infinite HP). Once the stage ends, the player's score is uploaded to the game's servers (if it beat their previous record) and compared to the scores of other players in their region (3DS) or of all other players (Mobile). Once the event period ends, the player will receive prizes based on their final ranking, potentially including a Mega Stone for the Pokémon featured in the stage.

Competitive Stages have been both move-limited and time-limited stages. Before playing a Competitive Stage or checking the leaderboard, the player must agree to connect to the Internet. Once a connection is confirmed, the player may select Pokémon and items as usual. On the Ranking screen, which is unique to this type of stage, players can view their personal high score, current placement, and information on the five players currently on top of the leaderboard (in their region on 3DS), including the Pokémon used to acquire their score. From version 1.3 (3DS)/1.6 (Mobile) onwards, this screen was adjusted to include the Pokémon the player used to achieve their current score and the score cutoffs for each prize tier, as well as which prize tier the player is currently in.

Though the available prizes always include a Mega Stone (or equivalent prize if the player has already obtained that specific Mega Stone), the other prizes vary. The specific prizes for each Competitive Stage are listed in the tables below.

Timed events

3DS

So far, there have been fifteen unique timed Competitive Stages. Only the initial events for each featured Mega Pokémon have been time-limited stages, though not every Mega Pokémon debuted with a timed stage. Timed stages usually only have the Complexity -1 and Disruption Delay Items available, with the Attack Power ↑ item also being available starting with Mega Manectric's stage. However, the Disruption Delay item was not available for the Mega Gardevoir stage.

In the update to v1.2.0, updates were made to detect cheating in Competitive Stage submissions in light of scores submitted during the Mega Banette competition.

In Pokémon Shuffle Mobile, the first Competitive Stage was Mega Charizard Y, which ran at the same time as the one on the 3DS version. Rankings were determined separately from the 3DS version, but were not divided by region.

Move-limited events

3DS

So far, move-limited Competitive Stages have featured eighteen different Mega Evolved Pokémon, with one Mega Stone being available for each. Though the event stages featuring Mega Sceptile and Mega Gyarados have only appeared as move-limited stages, many of these stages have only appeared as repeats. The ranking range is generally increased for repeat stages, allowing more players the opportunity to place and obtain the Mega Stone prize. The Items available for use tend to vary with the stage.

The Competitive Stage featuring Mega Sceptile was the first stage to use the Fast Match stage type, a variant of move-limited stages where every match in a combo receives a 1.5x multiplier if a match is made within a few seconds of the stage starting or the previous combo ending. To date, only Competitive Stages have used this stage type.

Mobile

In Pokémon Shuffle Mobile, the first move-limited Competitive Stage was Mega Manectric. Unlike the 3DS version, almost all Competitive Stages are move-limited stages. Mega Venusaur was the first stage released as a Fast Match stage in the Mobile version, a Competitive Stage-exclusive limited-move format that multiplies every match in a combo by 1.5 if a match is made within a few seconds of the stage beginning or a combo ending. This format comes irregularly.

Mega Lucario's stage did not allow items and required 2 Hearts per play.

The Daily Pokémon (#5)

The Daily Pokémon (#5) features Dunsparce, Qwilfish, Durant, Heatmor, and Maractus.

This set of Pokémon includes a quirk: with the exception of Dunsparce, the Pokémon opponent will spawn Coins as disruptions if the player achieves a combo of at least four matches while the number of moves remaining is equal to or greater than the default number of moves given. Additionally, in these stages, the Pokémon from the previous day's stage appears as part of the stage's initial layout. If the previous day's Pokémon is brought as a Support Pokémon, it will trigger the requisite combo, allowing the player to potentially obtain a small Coin bonus with each play.

Escalation Battle

050Diglett.png This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: Latios and later event information

Escalation Battles (Japanese: レベルアップバトル Level-Up Battle) are a unique Special Stage type that feature Legendary and Mythical Pokémon. Each Escalation Battle has a Stage Level that starts at 1 and increases every time the stage is cleared. As the Stage Level increases, the target Pokémon's base catch rate will also increase; however, the stage will gradually become more difficult as well. There is no capture bonus for any remaining moves in these stages. All items are available when they are applicable.

Additionally, various rewards are given once certain Stage Level milestones have been cleared, encouraging the player to continue even after they have caught the Pokémon featured in the stage. The specific milestones and rewards differ with each Escalation Battle. More valuable rewards are typically guarded by a 'boss' stage, which is usually much more difficult than the stages immediately before or after it.

Ten Pokémon have been released through Escalation Battle events, with the dates they've appeared appearances, stage data, and rewards across all versions listed in the tables below. Giratina Altered Forme was the first Escalation Battle for both versions, being available from June 8 to 22, 2015 on the 3DS version, and from September 28 to October 12, 2015 on the Mobile version. Diancie was previously available as a Commemorative Event from September 14-28, 2015, making it one of the few Pokémon to be available through several different kinds of Special Stages.

From version 1.3 (3DS)/1.6 (Mobile) onwards, the "angry" feature was introduced to all Escalation Battles. With this feature, when an Escalation Battle stage is cleared, the featured Pokémon has a chance to become angry, temporarily increasing the stage level by 3-5 for ten minutes. If the stage is started within this timeframe and cleared, the anger will subside and the Stage Level will increase to the new value, skipping several levels. However, if the timer runs out before starting the stage or the stage is failed, the anger will subside and the Stage Level reverts back to what its value would be without the anger bonus. If a reward stage would be skipped due to this, the reward will still be given if the later stage is cleared. However, certain stages may be designated as impossible to skip, usually including boss or Coin stages.

In the 3DS version, the first run of Zygarde 50% Forme was the first Escalation Battle to include the "angry" feature. In the Mobile version, the Giratina Altered Forme repeat on May 31, 2016 was the first Escalation Battle on the Mobile version with this feature.

Latias

The first time this Escalation Battle was run, it was the first time when HP varied significantly between non-boss levels. For example, Latias has less HP at Stage Level 161 (10,752), for instance, than it does at Stage Level 61 (12,936). Previously, HP had gradually increased even when the individual stage types, disruptions, etc. had changed.

An Evolving Challenge!

An Evolving Challenge! (Japanese: 進化チャレンジ Evolving Challenge) is a type of Special Stage that, so far, has been 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.

Great Challenge

Great Challenge (Japanese: スーパーチャレンジ Super Challenge) is a type of Special Stage that includes many event stages that feature a wide variety of powerful Pokémon, including many Legendary and Mythical Pokémon. Each of these stages are move-limited, and require either Hearts or Coins to play. Provided that the player has enough of those resources, the stages may be played as often as the player likes during the event period. Each stage's cost to play is listed in the Notes section of the table below (if nothing is listed, the stage costs one Heart to play). Early in the game's life, many of these stages gave a bonus reward after completing the stage for the first time.

In the 3DS version, every Great Challenge stage cost one Heart per play prior to Version 1.3.10. Afterwards, most Great Challenge stages cost Coins to play instead.

In the Mobile version, many of these stages required multiple Hearts or Coins and one Heart to be played in early versions. The first stage in the Mobile version to require only Coins to play was the November repeat of the "Keldeo Rears its Head" event.

Special Challenge

Special Challenge (Japanese: スペシャルチャレンジ Special Challenge) is a type of Special Stage that can be considered to be a variant of Great Challenge. These stages feature Pokémon that were already available in the Expert Stages, though the stages are move-limited instead of time-limited and have different stage data. The Pokémon in these stages can occasionally drop a Personalized Skill Booster, or rarely a Raise Max Level, if it has already been caught and the player plays the stage again.

Ultra Challenge

Ultra Challenge (Japanese: ハイパーチャレンジ Hyper Challenge) is a type of Special Stage that can be considered to be a variant of Great Challenge. Like Great Challenges, these event stages are all move-limited, require either Hearts or Coins to play, and feature powerful Pokémon. However, the Pokémon that are featured in Ultra Challenge stages are more powerful in terms of raw strength compared to those that appear in Great Challenges, with each of the featured Pokémon being among the few Pokémon that have an Attack Power of 90 at Level 1.

In the 3DS version, the first run of the Arceus stage gave 1,000 Coins as a bonus reward after completing the stage for the first time.

One Chance a Day!

One Chance a Day! (Japanese: 1日ワンチャン! One day, one chance!) is a type of Special Stage that can only be played once per 24-hour period, and usually only lasts for a period of four days. Otherwise, the stages are similar to Great Challenges.

The event debuted on May 7, 2015 under the event name "Seize Hold of Pinsir" in the 1.1.11 update. On July 6, 2015, "Jump on a Chance for Jirachi" became the second such stage. Pinsir returned on September 29, 2015 ("Seize Hold of Pinsir"), February 17, 2016 and May 11, 2016 ("Pinsir Appears"). Jirachi appeared for the first time in Mobile and returned to 3DS ("Jirachi Appears!") from July 6 to 9, 2016 and August 6 to 9, 2016.

A Great Chance a Day!

The "A Great Chance a Day!" (previously "One Great Chance a Day!" in 2015) stages are a variant of the "One chance a day!" format. The main difference is that the base catch rate for the featured Pokémon increases slightly with each passing day.

Unlike other event types, stages that have been featured under this event type have been both move-limited and time-limited stages. From June 21, 2016 onwards, the Pokémon featured in these stages have been able to rarely drop a Mega Speedup during the stage if they had already been caught. Additionally, they are guaranteed to drop at least one Personalized Skill Booster.

Pokémon Safari

Pokémon Safari (Japanese: ポケモンサファリ Pokémon Safari) is a type of Special Stage in which a number of Pokémon are available through a single stage on the overworld, denoted by a question mark. Whenever a Safari stage is accessed, the player will battle one of the opponents 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. Due to the nature of these stages, the Optimize button is unavailable.

There have been ten different Pokémon Safari events thus far, though new Pokémon have been added to old Safaris on repeat runs. All but one Safari have been exclusively 3-Pokémon stages.

In this Safari, each stage is set up such that if the Pokémon featured in it is brought as a Support Pokémon, a match will always be made at the start of the stage, triggering the opponent Pokémon to disrupt with multiple Coins. If not, the Pokémon will instead disrupt with a single Coin after the first move has been made.

Special resource stages

Meowth's Coin Mania

Meowth's Coin Mania (Japanese: ニャースコインゲット Nyarth's Coin GET) is a Special Stage that allows the player to obtain a large number of Coins in a single stage. The stage is only available during the 24-hour period in which it becomes available, and it may only be played a limited number times per period. This Meowth has an unlimited amount of HP, and thus cannot be "defeated" or caught.

Coins appear in this stage as a 5th Support Icon, meaning that Coins will appear pseudo-randomly among the other Support Pokémon on the initial board and in the skyfall. If the player gets a combo of 3 or more, Meowth will disrupt and replace three or (less frequently) five non-Coin icons currently on the board within two adjacent columns with Coins. Since this disruption does not rely on a countdown, if the disruption causes another combo of 3 or more, Meowth will disrupt repeatedly.

After completion of the stage, if there are no more attempts available, it will disappear until the next day it is available. On certain versions of the game, the stage will become locked after the first time it is played per period, with additional attempts becoming unlocked if the player spends a Jewel.

In the 3DS version, 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 in version 1.2.1, the stage is only available once each Sunday, with Tons of Exp. Points available on Saturdays instead. Starting on April 3, 2016, a Jewel can be spent to unlock this stage for three more attempts per period.

In Pokémon Shuffle Mobile, the stage is available on both Saturdays and Sundays but if Victini comes on a Saturday this stage appears on the Sunday only. The stage can be played once per day. Two additional attempts can be made per day in exchange for a Jewel for each attempt. Starting on January 31, 2016, a Jewel can be spent to unlock this stage for three more attempts instead of two. As of Mobile version 1.6.3, this stage is only available on Sundays.

Pokémon Type Moves EXP Availability
Meowth Meowth Normal 10 0 Currently every Sunday 6 AM to Monday 6:00 AM UTC (once per period)

Skill Booster S Stage!

Skill Booster S Stage! (Japanese: スキルパワーSゲットステージ Skill Power S GET Stage) is a Special Stage featuring Eevee which, if cleared, will allow the player to obtain one or more Enhancements. During the stage, Eevee may drop up to three Enhancements - at least one Skill Booster S is guaranteed, but up to two more Skill Booster S or Skill Booster M Enhancements may be dropped as well.

Similar to Meowth's Coin Mania and Tons of Exp. Points, the stage is only available during a 24-hour period. After each attempt of the stage, it will become locked; players may spend a Jewel to unlock the stage up to three times, and after the fourth attempt it will disappear. This stage first became available on June 9, 2016 and returns most Thursdays.

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 with a single Heart, as well as a chance to catch the Mythical Pokémon Victini. The stage operates similarly to Meowth's Coin Mania and Skill Booster S Stage! in that the stage appears in 24-hour periods and can only be played a limited number of times in each period, after which it disappears. In certain versions of the game, the stage can only be played once per period; in others it can be played multiple times per period, but the stage will be locked after each attempt, requiring a Jewel to unlock.

In the 3DS version, the event "Exp. Points from Victini!" was made available on May 30, 2015 for the first time. From May 30, 2015 to March 26, the stage was only able to be played once per 24-hour period. From April 2, 2016 to July 16, 2016, the stage became locked after each attempt, and players could spend a Jewel to unlock it for one additional attempt per Jewel. During this period, the maxiumum number of Jewels that could be spent was three per 24-hour period. The stage is available every Saturday for 24 hours (Saturday 6:00 AM to Sunday 6:00 AM UTC time).

In the Mobile version, Victini first became available in version 1.2.4. While the stage data was the same, players could spend up to two Jewels for one additional attempt per Jewel in each 24-hour period. From January 30, 2016 to July 16, 2016, the total number of Jewels that could be spent was increased to three.

From July 19, 2016 onwards, the total number of Jewels that could be spent to unlock additional attempts was increased to five in both versions.

Prior to Mobile version 1.6.3, Victini appeared every other Saturday; thereafter, it became a regular weekly event like in the 3DS version. Starting on May 31, 2016, Victini also began to appear occasionally on Tuesday in both versions. Thus far, its Tuesday appearances have coincided with Competitive Stages.

From August 2, 2016 onwards (ver. 1.3.16 (3DS)/1.7.4 (Mobile)), the total experience gained from the stage was increased by 25%.

Incredible Item Stage

Incredible Item Stage (Japanese: アイテムゲットステージ Item GET Stage), "Rake In Some Items!" was a Special Stage with a format identical to an Escalation Battle that featured Delibird. Like in an Escalation Battle, items were rewarded to the player when they cleared certain level milestones. However, compared to other Escalation Battles, the stages in this event were generally rather easy. Despite being in a main stage, Delibird was able to be caught during this stage. with the same catch rates as other Escalation Battle Pokémon.

Try 'Em Items Stage

Try 'Em Items Stage (Japanese: アイテムフリーステージ Free Items Stage) is a type of Special Stage event that provides a special opportunity for players to use items for free in attempts to capture a Pokémon. The stage was not available on weekends.

During the initial four weeks of Wobbuffet's availability on the 3DS version, the variety of items available increased every Monday; for instance, at initial release, the only item available was a Mega Start. Wobbuffet's HP and difficulty increased with the addition of new items. Wobbuffet gave a clear reward of only one Coin per attempt.

In its initial Pokémon Shuffle Mobile and all repeat runs on both versions, the stage was made available with all four items on weekdays from August 31 to September 5, 2015 and again from February 16 to March 8, 2016.

All four items above were immediately available for both weeks of Carnivine's event with no stage differences. The Coin reward was 100 Coins for the first completion of this stage with no reward at all on later attempts. It was possible to earn the 100 Coins a second time after the 1.2.15 update became available on September 4.

During the July/August 2016 repeats of these stages, the stages required no Hearts to play.
