Pokémon Shuffle is a lot of things - slightly addictive, annoyingly 2D-only, quite fun and slightly tacky in its micro-transactions, but one thing it's not is lazy. Nintendo and developer Genius Sonority keep serving up weekly events and special announcements, along with consistent software updates that are doing something. This week is no exception.
Version 1.1.7 is now live, and comes with a Rayquaza event that'll run until 13th April. Once you clear the challenge for the first time you'll receive a valuable Jewel for your troubles, while dedicated players will no doubt be aiming to capture the dragon-type in addition to clearing its stage.
Are you still shuffling every day? Let us know.

The game kind of got boring for me, after trying so had for that lucarionite to then no get it...lol
I do still play this at least once a day usually twice. It's fun to play in short bursts anyways.
I was finished w/ the original 150 and ready to call it quits about a day before the last update so kept playing. After 150 they have gotten much harder, hard to beat any Pokemon w/o spending some coin. But as long as I still can I'll keep playing.
And for those who don't play a lot of app games this is kind of normal. Hardly a day went by w/o Puzzles and Dragons getting an update back when I was playing it a year or so ago. And since there are still over 200 more Pokemon to add I suspect this will be getting updated at least every month for the next several months as there were 50 added last week.
Now about our SSB Mewtwo DLC? My kid won't stop bugging me about it.
Still waiting on that Groudon.
Yeah I'm still playing it, bit by bit. After doing everything you just farm coins on Meowth so you can be prepared for whatever they throw at your next. I've saved up 60,000 coins so far.
Caught it 1st time with a 27% chance! Not too shabby
I "check in" every day and so far I've caught every pokemon up to level 139, a handful of expert stage pokemon, every "daily pokemon", and every special except for the Lucario Mega Stone (I barely missed out, very very close) and Kaldeo.
@DarthNocturnal I'm only a little ahead of you. I had a difficult time with Mega Glalie too, and just like you I refuse to spend real money on the game. Keep battling him and eventually your Pokemon will level up and get stronger. I failed to beat Keldeo last week.
@DarthNocturnal - Rayquaza is easy peasy to beat, they give you 30 moves and I had 19 left when I beat him (so it took me 11). Tried again since I didn't catch him and it took me 19 moves (I had 11 left). Still haven't caught him, guessing they expect you to use your coins on the power ball, which still didn't MAX out even w/ 19 moves left (think it was up to 92%).
For comparison I can't beat Keldeo, can't even get close. Though I did crush Bagon (level 161 or 162) so apparently I have a very good team for dragon matches.
It's mine.
Caught it, mwa ha ha ha!
It's the only Pokemon game I get. lol I really like it. I play it everyday so far.
@Captain_Gonru - I play once or twice a day. I'm not replaying levels or doing any expert levels, just trying to get to the end of the main game. I've caught 102 of 162.
I'm trying to catch everything I can but right now I'm stuck on Milotic. I've caught every main stage Pokemon but Larvesta and Froakie and 13 of the expert stage Pokemon. I've only unlocked 19 Expert stages though. I've also caught every special Pokemon and got the Lucarionite. Rayquaza was easy to beat but hard for me to catch for some reason.
So far I haven't spent a dime.
I am doin quite well for not putting in any money yet. I have mega lucario and the only pokemon I do not have are Heatran, Blazikin and Mewtwo (I still do not have the option). Rayquaza is easy to catch.
Already caught him! Easier than I thought it would be!
So far I caught everything. Got the Lucarionite too. I'm on stage 120 and S-ranked everything up to stage 105. Also started expert and made progress up until Entei and Raikou.
Yeah at least this game will keep me busy until we get Puzzle and Dragons.
Got Rayquaza on the 2nd try but spend all my coins in the process. But will trade all ore for money once i get 12
I still shuffle and find it good fun. Rayq was surprisingly easy to catch - not complaining!
I really don't think this deserves a news article.
Caught it. Now with Rayquaza, that brings my capture count to 186 which I think is all that have been release so far.
