Two new events have been announced for “Pokemon Shuffle.” A repeat run for the Mega Manectric stage is already available for the “Pokemon Shuffle,” while it is the first time that the stage will be out for the mobile version.

Ranking in the top positions will yield more rewards. The top 12,000 in Europe and 18,000 in the U.S. will get the Manectite. Those who belong in the very top, 1,000 in Europe and 1,600 in the U.S will get an additional Mega Speedup. For the mobile counterpart, the obtainable prizes include the Manectite, the Mega Speedup, Attack Power and a Jewel, as detailed over Serebii, the trusted Pokemon source.

Delibird is also coming as an Escalation Battle event in “Pokemon Shuffle.” Both versions will get the event, and the prize is a rare Delibird cannot be caught. Its reward brings a couple of items per level, including additional Exp. Points, additional moves, Attack Power Up and Mega Start. This event is only available until Nov. 24.

For “Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire” players, a Christmas event is brewing. Dubbed as the Festive Feud Online Competition, this comes in time for the holiday season, with themes matching the festive cheers.

Announced over at the Pokemon Global Link, the new competition will see players making use of red, green and white Pokemon for their teams. There is already a list of eligible Pokemon that can be used in the online battles, all of which are grouped in their respective colours.

The mechanics for the Festive Feud have also been revealed. Players need to compete in Triple Battles in “Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.” Only Pokemon that can be captured in the two games are allowed, with the usual adjustment of Level 50 set for the matches.

Festive Feud is worth participating in, if only for the prizes up for grabs. A Delibird with the rare Happy Hour move can be obtained just by completing at least three battles in the Festive Feud. Apart from the Delibird, it is also holding a Relic Gold, which is a new and valuable item that makes its appearance in the “Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire” games for the first time.

Players can start registering for the Festive Feud as early as Dec. 3. The only things needed to be eligible to join are a Pokemon Trainer Club account and a copy of either the “Pokemon Omega Ruby” or “Ppkemon Alpha Sapphire.” The online competition starts on Dec. 11.
