What's happened to the information being added to the pages on the game, and why are [[Roseus Center]], [[Expert Stages]], [[Special Stages]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number]] so out-of-date? Not that long ago, the information would have been dumped and added to Bulbapedia by now, but now nothing beyond a general mention of Keldeo has been added. What has happened? {{unsigned|PartHunter}} | What's happened to the information being added to the pages on the game, and why are [[Roseus Center]], [[Expert Stages]], [[Special Stages]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number]] so out-of-date?

== March 2016 Update (v1.3.0) == | |||
New required update as of March 2016 for the 3DS version (I don't have the mobile version to compare to). | |||
Here's the changes I've noticed: | |||
* Assorted graphical tweaks throughout the game | |||
** Background pattern on the title screen is now green. | |||
** Aesthetic changes to the interface buttons. | |||
** Type-effectiveness icons in Pokemon selection are more noticeable. | |||
** Exclamation mark indicating a new stage more noticeable, and blue. | |||
* New gameplay modes | |||
** Survival Mode: Pick a team of 4 Pokemon and clear multiple stages consecutively. Costs 3 Hearts per attempt. | |||
** Mission Cards: Clear the objectives listed on a card to earn stars and receive one-time rewards. Rewards include items, Enhancements, Hearts and Jewels, and Mega Stones. | |||
* General stage-select changes | |||
** Icons below a stage indicate how desirable the Pokemon is to be caught (currently displayed for all stages, not just uncaught Pokemon). | |||
** Some stages have a "Recommended Level" rating. | |||
* Main stage-select screen | |||
** Map handle at the top of the screen, drag down to reveal a list of stages and jump directly to them instead of having to scroll/tab through each one. | |||
* Expert stage-select screen | |||
** Now shows the next stage and the player's progress toward unlocking it. | |||
* Special stage-select screen | |||
** Pokemon Safari stages now display which Pokemon the player has caught (speculation: or seen?) instead of a high score. | |||
** Ranking screen for Competitive stages improved; can display the Top 5 leaderboard or show rankings by reward tier, which shows who has what rank for which prize and where the player currently stands. Reward tier is the default display. | |||
* Pokemon select screen | |||
** "Super Effective" button on the top left filters the list to super-effective Pokemon only (this is also a type option on the Search screen) | |||
** Enhancement items (Mega Speedup, etc.) have been moved to their own menu on the upper-right. | |||
** Several new Enhancement items. "Max Level Up" can be used on specific Pokemon to raise their level cap, "Exp. Booster" seen as a reward on Mission Card #3, others exist (saw at least four types on the tutorial screen that pops up the first time). | |||
* Other changes | |||
** XP gains upon clearing a course are now displayed numerically below the XP bar, since at high levels the increase can be hard to notice. | |||
** Can now receive SpotPass alerts. | |||
