Bug Fixes

■ Fixes to a bug that caused helper Pokémon not to use Energy during sleep tracking
Up until now, due to a calculation bug related to Energy consumption, helper Pokémon were not using Energy for Sneaky Snacking and help that occurred during sleep tracking.

In the future, helper Pokémon will use Energy for help and Sneaky Snacking during sleep tracking, so your Snorlax may gain less Strength from Sneaky Snacking during sleep tracking than it did before.

This issue has been recognized as a bug for some time now, but because it did not cause any disadvantages for players, we prioritized other bug fixes and new feature development.

However, based on the following reasons, it has become more vital that we fix this bug, and so we are taking this opportunity to fix it.
• Some players being able to accelerate progress through the game considerably faster than intended by the developer (for example by performing certain actions during sleep tracking, they have been able to get help for a whole day without their helper Pokémon using up any Energy).
• Snorlax gaining more Strength on days when the player tracked sleep twice than on days when the player tracked sleep only once.

Energy will still be restored as usual when sleep tracking finishes, so helper Pokémon should generally not have less Energy when you wake up in the morning than they did before you started sleep tracking.

■ Fixes to a bug that gave one extra helping’s worth of Berries during Sneaky Snacking

■ Fixes to a bug that allowed for cooking four or more times a day when certain actions were performed

■ Fixes to a bug that made it easier for main skills to be triggered when certain actions were performed

■ Fixes to a bug that caused sleep tracking that was “reviewed later” not to be reflected in the weekly summary

■ Fixes to a bug that caused the Energy restored by Energy Pillows to cap at 100% in some cases

■ Fixes to a bug that caused the notification mark (a red circle) to continue displaying on the Shops icon on the home screen during the weekly turnover even after obtaining the Daily Gift

■ Fixes to a bug that caused the Shiny appearance of Pokémon that had been evolved twice not to appear in the Sleep Style Dex in some cases

■ Fixes to a bug that caused the “Choose Next Research Site” button on the home screen during the weekly rollover not to work when the device’s language was set to Turkish
