We've answered this before, but only base game gen 8 will be in V13. All the DLC stuff is either added in a later patch or V14.

The link in which all the character wallpapers and full resolution character art is located has been sorted per chapter to avoid people getting spoiled on accident! Will change the OP to match this change as well. Thank you!! And also, I'm only making art for her rift form. It's for the same reason I didn't draw Braixen and will only draw Delpha, as Darkevoir is only a recolor of a normal gardevoir, while Braixen only gets a blue bow. It felt a little redundant to do art of smth like that.

Some are planned, some are unprompted and thought of on the spot! Entirely depends on Jan's mind coming up with ideas, but there are a couple that tie in to the lore of the game that will happen regardless. Who knows! I'm actually not entirely sure what Jan has planned in that regards in the future, but knowing him, it's entirely possible that the HL questline isn't the only one of that nature. Now this is a question I cannot give an answer to, for this would be a spoiler. Why don't you play the update when the game comes out and figure it out for yourself? and just to double down on this before people start interpreting my answer as a yes, i'm not confirming or denying anything with this. im juuuuuuuuust sayin'.

A couple of shinies have been changed, yes! Not that many, but among the lines that have been changed are the Infernape and Vanilluxe lines, as well as that Fletchling and Fletchinder's shinies have been fixed to match Talonflame's current shiny, as I forgot to update those for V12. Other than that there will probably be a couple more revisions (Eelektross line will probably be next), but we'll see in the future! We're keeping Gen 7 speed calculations because, and if I may recite Marcello's eloquent response to when this got brought up while we were working on gen 8 implementation -- "Fuck that" ...So nope, LOL Therefore the rosters won't get changed to fix the issues this might bring with it. The rosters will still get changed to include gen 8 as a whole, though.

So I've been struggling on whether I should make a long elaborate post myself or not, because yknow. frankly i'm god fucking awful at words and I don't really know how to properly express my gratitude for a lot of people here, so I'll keep it short instead. Before I list a bunch of people, big fat obligatory individual shoutout to @Jan for literally being the best friend I could've ever wished for, thank you for sticking with me for all these years (it's been almost 8 years now!! what the FUCK). I think you already know how much I appreciate that you're part of my life, but I wanted to double down on it once more because I don't think I'll ever be able to express my appreciation and deep gratitude I have for you enough. Thank you, thank you thank you ;; Other than that, I want to give a shoutout to a handful of people that have never failed to make my 5-year-long stay in this community enjoyable, whether they're more recent additions to the community or people I've known from the very start. Thank you @Ojama Yellow, @Marcello (u still stink btw), @Azeria, @ZEL, @Posty, @Amethyst, @andracass, @Arkhi, @Azzie, @crimsoncrim, @Alex, @Sardines, @Winter, @Ikaru, @MintMan, @Felix~, @Inuki, @Aishi, @Ruby Red and @Hellscythe for all being awesome people I've had the honor of meeting through this place (even if some of you have moved on from here and have been active elsewhere, we're still in touch so it still counts!!!!!!), and I hope we can share many more fun times in the future! Some of you I talk more with than the others, or I talked to frequently in the past but has gotten less over time, but I still am glad I was able to meet all of you and want you to know that I appreciate your existence!! really hope i didn't forget anyone because i didn;t want to leave anyone out on accident OTL

Last year we skipped this yearly tradition, but it's back stronger than ever -- and probably with good timing as well, because I think we could all use some uplifting kind words from each other during these turbulent times. For those who do not know what this thread is, it's pretty straightforward! It's basically a thread where you can post some nice messages for the people you appreciate within the community. Can be as short or as detailed as you want! Could be a whole paragraph of text for a single member or multiple short shoutouts to your buds, it's up to you. Spread the love y'all!

This was fixed for V12 and its patches, so this shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Got a definite answer for this one; it's easy enough to increase box capacity, so we'll probably be raising the amount of boxes available, yeah!

Oops, thank you for noticing! I copied them directly from the dev post, but it seems I missed them and didn't notice. 's fixed now!

The thing is that that's not even off topic discussion. It's relevant to V13 content. Yes, we've answered this question many times, but it's still on topic and therefore less annoying than when the thread trails off into discussion that doesn't relate directly to the game's development and could easily be discussed in a separate thread. I do agree with that I would really, deeply appreciate it if people would read the FAQ and its most recent posts in the thread along with the recap, but it's not something that would be a catalyst for closing the thread. Also "many times"? The thread's been closed literally twice, lol... It was locked when the thread first got posted and the only time it got locked after that was recently when people kept going off topic. You don't have to try to play peacekeeper in the thread by the way, that's the job of the mods to do so, so stop mini-modding. You don't need to get bossy on our behalf. It's discussions like this that end up making the thread go off topic. Anyways, to get back on topic... I don't think we even discussed if we should add pokejobs, lol... So for now the answer is no, unless it gets brought up! Though since the EV training rooms and the Audino trainers exist, along with the implementation of Exp candies, I don't think you have to worry too much about earning Exp. As for Pokemon camp, this would be incredibly hard to implement as we don't use 3D graphics. There's no real way for us to add that in without downgrading the mechanic significantly in how you interact with your Pokemon, so it's best to not get your hopes up. EDIT: I'm not sure about this, but I'll get back to you on this once I know more!

Art for Alexandra, Flora (Regular & Bladestar), Florin, Aelita (2nd), Erin, Rhodea, Huey and Lavender has been added, as well as art for Rift Gyarados, Rift Galvantula, Rift Volcanion and Rift Carnivine.

I hope you know the thread will get locked if you keep up this topic of conversation so it'd be you guys' fault if the thread ends up locked again. Focus on V13, not the thread reopening.

Updated OP to include more clear distinctions for the roles of the dev team members. Also hey, small PSA; I'm not super knowledgeable when it comes to the technical side of this game as I'm really just mostly helping out with the art, so please stop sending me dm's about bugs because 90% of the time I won't know how to help you LOL..... Please DM one of the assistants (I'd recommend Azery or Alex) or Sardines, they know more about this than I do.

You probably misinterpreted this. Dynamaxing/Gigantamaxing will NOT be implemented, the gmax mons will be added as custom megas instead. We've answered this question several times before!

This is a known bug and is fixed for V13!

New character art for Melia (3rd appearance), Venam (2nd appearance), Kanon (1st appearance), Maria, Vitus, Anathea, Amanda and Erick has been added!

You know you can change the music yourself by replacing the mp3 file for the gym leader fights with that song, right? We're not gonna change it back to this in the public build, unfortunately

You'll need to get Venam to get rid of the fence in front of the gate. Go back to Gearen and talk to the guy in Venam's gym almost right in front of the door upon entering. He'll tell you where to search for her.

One thing you wish you could bring back from the peak showdown days?
