The path the horde follows
Move in wide circles so the horde follows in a line behind you. Markers on the ground, circles and lines that fill, are attacks about to land. Step out of them. Healers and shield-casters go first.
Switch to the move that is super effective against what is in front of you. In the rain, Water gets stronger and Fire gets weaker. Sun, sand, snow, and fog change types as well. The partner you funded is on first partner.
Cards, one item, and minute 30
A level-up offers 1 of 3 cards. Levels go to the move that is firing, because evolution needs that move at max level and the matching upgrade in the same run. The run includes one free reroll of a level-up card. Further rerolls are bought in Upgrades.
During a run you find held items in chests and by defeating bosses. You hold one at a time, and it lasts the run. Leftovers recovers 1.5% of your HP per second. Choice Band is +40% damage, and you cannot switch moves while it is held. Life Orb is +30% damage, and each attack costs a little HP. Focus Sash leaves you at 1 HP from a hit that would knock you out, once every 60 seconds. The full item table is on mechanics. The Armor-card cap is on builds.
Save a Slumber Orb or a Blowback Orb for the moment the horde closes in. Slumber Orb sleeps enemies on screen for 4 seconds, and bosses for 1 second. Blowback Orb pushes nearby enemies away, and bosses half as far. Orbs use keys 5–8. You can carry up to 4 different orbs, 3 of each. They end with the run.
A rift is a portal to one of 18 type arenas. A win gives tickets and coins, half the time a ×10 ticket, two orbs, and a bond. A loss sends you back with no reward. News dated 2026-10-13 says rifts stop opening from minute 28. At minute 30, Judgment of Arceus takes you to the Ruins of Judgment. At minute 35, Arceus breaks everyone’s item, Focus Sash included. The minute walk is Judgment of Arceus, explained.
