Version 1.2.x
Version 1.2.0 became available on the Nintendo eShop on May 26, 2015. This update provides a significant number of new features and bug fixes.
- Hearts are separated into regenerating Hearts and bonus Hearts (obtained either from StreetPass or exchanging Jewels). Regenerating Hearts are capped at 5, and will always be used instead of the bonus Hearts if there are any. Bonus hearts are capped at 99. Any Hearts that the players had before the update are now treated as bonus Hearts, and the player's regenerating Hearts start off at 5 after installing the update.
- A candy icon now appears in the top right corner of the Mega Effect descriptions, with "0/x" next to it. The value of x depends on the species of the Pokémon; it differs even between Pokémon with the same Mega Effect and seems to be tied with how long each Pokémon takes to Mega Evolve. Version 1.2.2 reveals this indicates the maximum number of Mega Speedup enhancements that may be used on that Pokémon.
- Levels and experience points are now displayed on the Optimize screen.
- After successfully completing a Stage, if the players fail to catch a Pokémon with their first Poké Ball (before using a Great Ball), they have a chance of being offered a "Super Catch Power". This Super Catch Power provides a somewhat random boost on top of the Great Ball's boost (players still uses a Great Ball, and can use the same number of Great Balls as they could without the "Super Catch Power").
- After successfully catching a Pokémon, its Attack power and Skill are now displayed on the top screen, in the same way as when selecting Pokémon for a stage.
- The Skill "Block Bash" has been renamed "Block Smash", and the "Bonbon Boulevard" area has been renamed "Sweet Strasse".
- If the players leave a stage select screen and later returns to it, it will reappear exactly as the players left it. Previously, the screen would be focused on the last available stage in that category.
- New mechanics added to detect cheating and remove such entries from competitive stages. Such removed entries are given the lowest possible rank. Any cheating player must legitimately beat the score used from cheating to rank in the competition again; this means if players submit a score of 50,000 and is removed, players cannot submit a new score unless they can score 50,001.
- It prevents going to the Home menu by pressing the Home button during timed stages while the timer is running. Previously, this exploit could be used to view the board without a timer in both Expert Stages and competitive stages.
- It fixes a bug which caused some non-Mega Evolved icons of the lead Pokémon to appear after Mega Evolution on Stage 176 (Timburr).
- It fixes a bug which prevented Mewtwo from Mega Evolving into Mega Mewtwo Y, and from being selected as the lead Pokémon when using the Optimize button.

Aesthetic & UI changes
- The title screen has changed from a pink color scheme to a green color scheme.
- New fonts and borders have been added throughout the game.
- Player's info now shows "Best Survival Mode Record".
- A counter has been added to the upper-right corner of the top screen while viewing Main or Expert Stages. This counter shows how many Pokémon the player have caught out of the amount currently available.
- An area select tab has been added to the top of the touch screen. This tab lists each area, as well as how many Pokémon have been caught and how many S-ranks have been obtained for each area. Tapping an area in this list allows for quick travel to the first stage of that area.
- The Special Stage area now has scroll buttons identical to those in the Main and Expert Stages. The previous absence of these buttons limited only 5 events to occur at a given time, so this change has removed that limit.
- All Main Stage Mega Pokémon stages, all Expert Stages, and several difficult Main Stages now display a "recommended level" ranging from 1 to 10 when selected. It is suggested that the player's Pokémon be around this level before attempting the corresponding stage. This does not appear on event stages.
- Amelia returns to introduce a new recommended-Pokémon system. Each Pokémon is ranked from zero to three token-like icons (which resemble Amelia's face), based on some unknown criteria related to usefulness. The more icons a Pokémon has, the more the game recommends that players catch and use it. These icons are visible while browsing stages, as well as when players look at Pokémon in the Pokémon List.
- Silhouettes of Pokémon that will appear in the following Expert Stages beyond what the player has unlocked is added, with a note showing how many S Ranks the player has.
- In competitive stage rankings, in addition to the Top 5, the cut-off scores for each prize tier are now displayed. An arrow indicates which prize tier the player's current score qualifies for. The Top 5 and tier rankings are displayed on the touch screen rather than the top screen, while the top screen now displays the player's high score, ranking, and what team was used to get that score.
- Pokémon Safari is now displayed as an orange question mark, as in the mobile version, rather than a black question mark.
- In Pokémon Safari stages, silhouettes and icons are shown of the Pokémon that haven't and have been caught respectively. When the player has caught all available Pokémon in a safari, they receive a congratulatory message.
- After selecting a stage but before selecting "Continue", pressing and holding the icon of a Pokémon from the current team will show its full Pokémon List description on the top screen. This also works in the pause menu during a stage.
- The value of the Experience gained for each individual Pokémon is shown at the end of each stage.
- The "Level Up" wordings now only flashes once after leveling up, rather than flashing repeatedly until the player exited the results screen.
- Remaining experience to level up are now listed on the Pokémon List.
- When scrolling through the Pokémon List, arrows indicating type effectiveness are now visible without having to first select the Pokémon.
- If a Mega Stone has been obtained but the corresponding Pokémon has not been caught, then the Pokémon's icon appears as a silhouette when searching for Pokémon that can Mega Evolve. The Mega Stone is displayed in the small circle next to the silhouette.
- Charizard and Mewtwo will no longer appear when searching for Dragon or Fighting -type Pokémon respectively. This error was likely caused due to Mega Charizard X and Mega Mewtwo X changing to those types upon Mega Evolving.
- When searching through the Pokémon List, the search criteria is set to "Caught Pokémon" by default rather than "All Pokémon"
- The option to search for Super Effective Pokémon has been added to the search menu's "Type" drop-down menu.
- Additionally, a shortcut button has been added to the top left of the search results screen, to allow for quick switching to this criteria's results.
- A blue exclamation mark appears next to stages that have not been played yet.
- Mega Diancie makes a different noise when removing Pokémon.
- The design for the arrows that indicate Super Effective and Not Very Effective has been changed from three small arrows to a single large arrow.
- When the game is closed, the player's last position is saved, and players are returned to that position upon reopening the game. For example, if players were to close the game while at the Meowth stage, then they would start there upon reopening the game. Prior to this update, players would always start at the furthest Main Stage that they had unlocked. If the last stage played was a Special Stage, then the game starts at Main Stage 1 instead.

Version 1.4.x
Version 1.4.0 became available on the Nintendo eShop on March 8, 2017. This update adds several aesthetic and functional changes, many of which were introduced in Mobile version 1.9.0.
Aesthetic & UI Changes
- The 3DS home menu launch screen has changed to include the Alola first partner Pokémon, rather than the Kanto first partners.
- The title screen has changed from a green border to a yellow border and shows the Alola first partners rather than the Kanto first partners.
- Several Pokémon have had the color and/or size of their icons altered. Affected Pokémon include Castform, Charizard, Deoxys, Diancie, Gardevoir, Gengar, Hawlucha, Hippopotas, Hippowdon, Ho-Oh, Metagross, Mewtwo, Tyranitar, Vivillon, Wobbuffet, Xerneas, and Yveltal.
- The previously-unlabeled area that includes Main Stages 500-550 has been named Nacht Carnival.
- If a stage can drop items such as personalized Skill Boosters, then the stage's world map icon will display a present box. If such a stage's Pokémon has had its Skill level increased to maximum and no other drops are available, then the present box will disappear.
- When starting a stage after selecting items to use, there is no longer a confirmation box before the stage begins.
- When sorting Pokémon in the Pokémon List, selecting to sort by Attack Power or Level will automatically sort in descending order rather than the default ascending. Sorting by Pokédex number or by name is unchanged, and still defaults to ascending order.
- It adds the ability to go directly to the stages mentioned on the Notice Board and on the Mission Card.
- After a Pokémon has been captured, Amelia tokens will no longer appear on its world map icon. However, the icons are still visible on the window that appears when the stage is selected.
- When using various items (Exp. Boosters, Skill Boosters, Mega Speedups, etc.) on Pokémon, the game will gives an option to continue using them (if there are multiple items). Previously, the item had to be dragged onto the Pokémon once for each usage.
- Difficulty rating for stages is now on a scale of 1-5 rather than 1-10.
- Competitive stages now have a golden laurel background on their world map icon, as opposed to a grassy patch.
- Escalation Battles now display a Poké Ball on their world map icon if the Pokémon has been caught. However, the window that appears when selecting the stage still does not display a Poké Ball.
- If a Pokémon gains experience after completing a stage, a sound will play during the experience-gain animation after the stage ends. This sound is the same as the one played when Skill Boosters are used.
- When an Expert Stage is unlocked, the notification window that appears now shows the name and icon of the Pokémon in that stage.
Functional Changes
- The Skills "Mind Zap" and "Prank" can no longer activate if the enemy Pokémon is afflicted by a Disruption Delay or has a status effect such as Burn or Sleep.
- If a Streetpassed player has not updated to 1.4.0, then they will not be added to the Streetpass List and the pass will not count towards Heart or Jewel rewards. However, the 3DS home menu icon will still display a green dot, and the records tab visible on the world map will still display a blue dot if such a pass is received.
- Players are given 30 banked Hearts and 10,000 Coins upon Check-in after updating to version 1.4.0.

Version 1.5.x
Version 1.5.0 became available on the Nintendo eShop on January 9, 2018. This update adds several aesthetic and functional changes.
Aesthetic & UI Changes
- The title screen has been changed to have a blue-striped background lined with yellow and orange Poké Balls on the top screen, and a yellow-and-orange-striped background with sparkles on the bottom screen.
- The Select Zone menu tab has been moved to the top-right of the touch screen rather than the top-middle. Additionally, the word "Stages" has been removed from the zone buttons in this menu - for example, "Stages 121 to 135" now simply says "121 to 135".
- The arrows used to navigate the world map have been moved to the top-left and top-right corners of the touch screen, rather than the middle-left and middle-right.
- A credits button has been added to the records tab.
- After a stage has been played once after this update, the most recent team used to play that stage will be saved. When the arrow button to the right of the optimize button is pressed, the most recent saved team for that stage will be used. If a stage has not been played before, then the arrow button will be dimmed and will not work. This feature was introduced in Mobile version 1.10.0.
- When filtering Pokémon in the Pokémon List, there is now an option to filter by "Not Caught".
- In the Pokémon List, all Pokémon that have not yet been caught will now display a question mark over their touch screen icon, as well as displaying the name and a faded icon of the Pokémon on the top screen. Previously, Pokémon would only be displayed this way if they were fought in a stage but not caught, and Pokémon that had never been fought or captured at all would display a black silhouette with no name.
- On special stages, a second button has been added next to the info button when the stage is selected from the world map. The button will open a window with more information, but its purpose varies with the stage type:
- On Escalation battle stages, the button reads "Rewards" and the window lists the rewards for reaching milestone stage levels in that Escalation Battle.
- On Pokémon Safari stages, the button reads "Pokémon" and the window lists all of the Pokémon that can be encountered in that Safari.
- On Try 'Em Items Stages, the button is not present.
- On most other stages, the button will read "Drops" and the window will display the 3 items that the stage can drop. If a stage cannot drop any items, then the window will display "None". If a stage has a chance to drop the same type of item multiple times, then that item will be listed multiple times (for example, if a stage can only drop Personalized Skill Boosters, then that item will be listed 3 times).
- The colored border near the bottom of the touch screen will now change color and design depending on the current Zone's design. This feature was present in version 1.0.x but was removed at some unknown date, changing all of the borders to be one uniform type. Since the Zone designs used for Wacky Workshop and Pedra Valley were not accessible to players before the borders were removed, the borders they have received in this update are brand new.
Functional Changes
- Trainer rank has been added. A player's rank will increase depending on how many unique species of Pokémon they have captured, but Pokémon that share the same list number (such as alternate forms) will only be counted once. When a player's Trainer rank is increased, they can earn rewards such as Enhancements, Mega Stones, Jewels and Coins. These rewards can be redeemed from a new tab added to the top-left of the touch screen. Additionally, a bar displaying the player's Trainer rank has been added to the top screen.
- Check-in bonuses have been expanded to include Hearts, items, and Enhancements on a 15-day schedule. Tapping the Check-in button will now display a stamp card of the schedule on the top screen. The Coin rewards from the previous Check-in system are still present, but the message upon receiving them simply lists the Coins received and no longer thanks the player for checking in. It's not necessary to check in every day consecutively to receive the next daily reward, and the cycle repeats every 15 check-ins.
- The Pikachu (Celebration) given as rewards for Celebration Challenge are now set for each of the 12 months of the year as follows:
- January - Pikachu (Celebration: Lion Dancer)
- February - Pikachu (Celebration: Kotatsu)
- March - Pikachu (Celebration: Graduate)
- April - Pikachu (Celebration: Intern)
- May - Pikachu (Celebration: Children's Day)
- June - Pikachu (Celebration: Rainy Season)
- July - Pikachu (Celebration: Summer Festival)
- August - Pikachu (Celebration: Beach Walk)
- September - Pikachu (Celebration: Pastry Chef)
- October - Pikachu (Celebration: Artist)
- November - Pikachu (Celebration: Mushroom Harvest)
- December - Pikachu (Celebration: Year's End)
- Players who have yet to unlock all Main Stages now have the option to spend Jewels to unlock them. Stages are unlocked in sets that cost 2 Jewels up through Stage 240, and 3 Jewels for any sets afterwards.
Version | Release date | Changes |
---|---|---|
1.5.0 | January 9, 2018 | As detailed above. This also erroneously removes Main Stages 641 onward. Further, it does not show data of caught Pokémon from those stages or recently added special stages. This may have caused the count of Pokémon species captured (for the purposes of Trainer rank to be erroneously lower than the actual value. |
1.5.1 | January 9, 2018 | Restores access to Main Stages from 641 onward as well as all special stages. It also corrects the amount of Pokémon species captured to include previously missing catch information. |
1.5.2 | January 23, 2018 | Adds Golisopod Ultra Challenge, Azumarill (Winking) Great Challenge, and Kartana UB Challenge. Also adds repeat runs of Darkrai Escalation Battle, Tapu Koko and Tapu Lele Ultra Challenges, and Mimikyu Great Challenge.

Also re-adds the "Mega Start 0 Coin Festival for main stages 1 to 300, with the exception of stages 149, 239, 266, 278, and 288. This lasted until February 13, 2018. Also removes the Survival Mode button from the world map for Expert and special stages. The button is now only visible on the world map for main stages. On January 30, 2018, adds Mewtwo Level MAX Challenge. Also adds repeats of Mega Lucario competitive stage, Tapu Bulu and Tapu Fini Ultra Challenges, and Daily Pokémon #1. In this update, there is a 3DS-only bug with the Mewtwo MAX Challenge that would cause the game to crash shortly after tapping the stage's world map icon. This rendered the stage unplayable in all languages except Japanese, Spanish, and German. Additionally, all players are given Mewtwo, Suicune, Pikachu (Fired Up), and 3 Jewels to celebrate Pokémon Shuffle's 3-year anniversary. On February 1, 2018, starts a new month of the "Check in ten times!" event, which is similar to Celebration Challenge. This event only gives a reward for 10 Check ins during a month as opposed to tiered rewards for 5, 10, and 15 Check ins, does not reward Hearts and Mega Speedups, and offers Pikachu (Celebration: Kotatsu) as a reward. On February 6, 2018, adds Comfey Great Challenge and a new safari featuring Pikachu (Surprised) and Pikachu (Dizzy). Also adds repeat runs of Shaymin (Land Forme) Great Challenge, Shaymin (Sky Forme) High-Speed Challenge, Dialga and Palkia Great Challenges, and Daily Pokémon #2. |
1.5.3 | January 31, 2018 | Fixes the Mewtwo MAX Challenge crashing glitch, and gives all players 10 Hearts, 4 Exp Booster M, and 10 Exp Booster L as compensation. However, 4 Exp Booster M and 10 Exp Booster L have also been removed from Mewtwo MAX Challenge reward table for stage levels 1 through 40. Also introduces another glitch with the Mewtwo MAX Challenge whereby users do not receive stage level rewards if they had played the Mewtwo MAX Challenge during the previous update by changing their language. |
1.5.4 | February 1, 2018 | Adds a notice indicating that the Mewtwo MAX Challenge glitches are under investigation. |
1.5.5 | February 2, 2018 | Gives all players 9 Raise Max Levels and 11 Level Ups as compensation for the Mewtwo MAX Challenge rewards glitch. The rewards glitch was not actually fixed in this update, but the compensation amounts to the maximum possible amount of rewards that players could have missed due to the glitch. |
1.5.6 | February 5, 2018 | Adds skill details for Pikachu (Celebration: Lion Dancer) and distributes Celebration Challenge rewards for January. |
1.5.7 | February 13, 2018 | Adds Main Stages 671–700 (Marron Trail), Expert Stage 53, and UX stages, which are harder versions of main stages 1–700. UX Stages unlock after clearing main stage 700 and earning 500 S-ranks. Adds Raise Max Level eligibility to all Pokémon.
Adds Skill Swapper eligibility to Aegislash, Articuno, Beheeyem, Braviary, Bronzong, Charizard, Cinccino, Clefairy, Cleffa, Cresselia, Darkrai, Dhelmise, Dodrio, Elgyem, Flaaffy, Garchomp, Giratina (Altered Forme), Gyarados, Hoopa (Confined), Lickilicky, Magneton, Magnezone, Moltres, Mudsdale, Muk, Pikachu, Pinsir, Roselia, Roserade, Rufflet, Salazzle, Smeargle, Stoutland, Swalot, Weezing, Whiscash, Zapdos, Zygarde (50% Forme).
In commemoration of these changes, all players are given 2 Raise Max Levels and 1 Skill Swapper. Additionally, data has been added that automates most special stages on a 24-week cycle set to repeat through 2037. Special stages tied to holidays such as Halloween or Valentine's Day will occur around their respective holidays, independent of the 24-week cycle. Similarly, weekly and monthly resource-gathering stages will occur at their respective times independent of the cycle. Also finalizes the ability data for Pikachu (Celebration: Kotatsu), which could previously be obtained by players in an unfinished state. Similarly, ability data has also been finalized for the remaining Pikachu (Celebration) and all Pokémon involved in the 24-week cycle. |
1.5.8 | March 27, 2018 | Fixes a glitch whereby some stage levels in the Giratina Escalation Battle were not mapped to stages of corresponding difficulty. For example, stage levels 51-60 would cause the behavior for stage level 100 to appear. |
1.5.9 | June 20, 2018 | Adds several language files that were missing in some regions. Due to this, fixes a glitch whereby viewing Diancie's Mega Effect in the Pokémon List in some languages would crash the game. |
1.5.10 | July 3, 2018 | Makes minor edits to some regional text files. |
1.5.11 | July 24, 2018 | Updates messages in the Spanish and Italian translations' text files. |

1.1.3 | September 18, 2015 | This version adds Main Stages 151-165 (Wacky Workshop). It also adds the Mega Charizard Y competitive stage, and the "Rayquaza's Ascension" stage. Due to the developers copying stage data from the 3DS version, several stages had their catch rates and/or behavior changed (most notably Stage 37 Meowth disrupting only Coins as opposed to both Coins and breakable rocks), and some Stages with Mega Evolved Pokémon did not award Mega Stones when cleared. |

Changes:
- Amelia returns to introduce a new recommended-Pokémon system. Each Pokémon is ranked from zero to three token-like icons (which resemble Amelia's face), based on some unknown criteria related to usefulness. The more icons a Pokémon has, the more the game recommends that players catch and use it. These icons are visible while browsing stages, as well as when players look at Pokémon in the Pokémon List.
- All Main Stage Mega Pokémon stages, all Expert Stages, and several difficult Main Stages now display a "recommended level" ranging from 1 to 10 when selected. It is suggested that the player's Pokémon be around this level before attempting the corresponding stage. This does not appear on event stages.
- When the game is closed, the player's last position is saved, and players are returned to that position upon reopening the game. For example, if players were to close the game while at the Meowth stage, then they would start there upon reopening the game. Prior to this update, players would always start at the furthest Main Stage that they had unlocked.
- The rank symbol appearing after clearing a stage flashes continuously.
