Weekly events

These events occur every week, independent of the 24-week schedule.

Skill Booster M Stage!

The resource event featuring Eevee.

Skill Booster M Stage! (Japanese: スキルパワーMゲットステージ Skill Power M GET Stage) (previously "Skill Booster S Stage!" until December 18, 2016) is a special stage featuring Eevee which, if cleared, will allow the player to obtain one or more Skill Booster Enhancements.

This stage is available from Tuesday to Thursday of every week.

It is guaranteed to drop at least one Skill Booster M, and has a chance to drop up to two more per play:

  • 100% chance to drop Skill Booster M ×1
  • 25% chance to drop Skill Booster M ×1
  • 12.5% chance to drop Skill Booster M ×1

Drop rates can be increased if the Drop Rate Increase (DRI) effect is purchased from the Special Shop.

A Chance for Coins

The resource event featuring Meowth.

A Chance for Coins, also known as Meowth's Coin Mania (Japanese: ニャースでコインゲット Nyarth's Coin GET) is a special stage that allows the player to obtain a large number of Coins in a single stage. This Meowth has an unlimited amount of HP, and thus cannot be "defeated" or caught, nor does it grant any experience.

This stage is available from Friday to Sunday of every week.

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 the first attempt, which does not require any Hearts to play, the stage will become locked; Jewel ×1 may be spent to unlock 3 more plays for the stage for the week, and the stage will disappear after the 4th attempt.

Tons of Exp. Points

The resource event featuring Victini.

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 amount of experience points in a single stage, as well as a chance to catch the Mythical Pokémon Victini.

This stage is available from Friday to Monday of every week.

After the first attempt, which does not require any Hearts to play, the stage will become locked; Jewel ×1 can be spent to unlock 1 additional play, up to 14 times for the week. The stage will disappear after the 15th attempt.
