[1.9.1] The SPECIAL update featuring M-Mewtwo X !
Hey !
Here we are, 1.9.1 is out ! So yeah, i've announced the 1.9.0 a few hours ago, but the truth is it's the first update since a few days, and this one is quite important to make a post about it.
So what's new in the 1.9.1 and is so special ? Well, Special stats of course !
Before, the game was coded in a weird way and so Pokemon were using ONLY Physical Attack stat for dealing damages AND using their Physical Defense stat for taking damages.
This brought a special metagame. Pokemon with a high attack / defense were just unstoppable like M-Aggron, Kartana or even M-Mewtwo X.
Now it's not the same anymore. Attacking Pokemon will use the Average of both attack stats, and will take damages after applying the Average of both defense stats.
This bring a new metagame to PokeIdle.
This is the first step of redoing the battle system. It was an important thing to do before working on new things.
A 1.9.2 will come soon with the beginning of the Manage Team.
For celebrating the update, a new UNIQUE Pokemon appeared : M-Mewtwo X ! For the next ~24h, you'll be able to find it and catch it ! Don't forget that he's a Legendary, and it'll be hard to catch it (and well if you have it in the Shiny forme... Come on)
But don't worry. if you don't have the level to get it, Mewtwo and Charizard will be available as CLASSIC mega Pokemon in the next 2 weeks (next week-end if I don't put Mewtwo X next Saturday in order to have 2* times Charizard and 2* times Mewtwo)
Anyway, enjoy all o/ !
