*Appended - 11/12/2024*

08/12/24 Move Adjustments

We corrected an error on our end with this patch, which also ended up bringing us a new move as well. The old "Dragon Rage" move was actually Dragon Dance, but it had the wrong name in game. We've corrected this, and also added the actual Dragon Rage move to make up for this long standing error. Dragon rage has not existed as a move since gen 7, so that is what was used to determine which mons get it when. The durations of status effects were altered as well. 

Status Effect Adjustments:

Default durations:

sleep : 2.5s

freeze : 1.5s

paralysis : 1.5s

Durations on bosses  ( /4) :

sleep : 0.625s

freeze : 0.375s

paralysis : 0.375s

3/14/25 Move Adjustments

Three new status effects have been introduced:

- Burn; fire damage over time debuff

- Posion; poison damage over time debuff

These effects take away 5% of HP over 10 seconds, however, burn deals fire type damage and poisoning deals poison type damage, so typing affects the damage.

Poison damage gradually increases, while burn damage decreases over time.

Confusion

The Confusion status has been added. It now lasts randomly between 5 and 15 seconds, with damage varying over time.

It deals 5% as Psychic type of the opponent's remaining HP as damage.

These damages are affected by boss rank for PvE. As ranks increase it reduces the percentage. (For example, a rank 5 boss only takes 1% over 10 seconds.)

Move Tweaks:

Ember: now has 10% of chance to burn

Fire Blast : now has 10% of chance to burn

Fire Punch : now has 10% of chance to burn
