Hosts (and mods) can rename an active scene with /rp title inside the post, or with Rename on Profile → Roleplay.

The forum post name and the tracker update together so the title stays tidy after a rethink.

/battle wild Mega and Gigantamax (MAX) encounters use their species' real learnset moves again — no more Struggle-only kits.

Beating one also pays double OC XP and is much more likely to drop a mid–great combat spoils item.

OC Name: lines can carry image attachments, show each post's word count in the footer, and — when you Discord-reply to another message with a new alias line — include a short quote and jump link to what you answered. If that line belongs to another member, they get a mention so the reply is easier to spot in a busy thread.

Reply to your own recent OC line with plain text (no name and colon) within fifteen minutes to edit it, or react ❌ to delete it.

Character relationships got a full refresh on Relationships: browse your ties and explore others from one hub, pick from a wider set of types (family, friendship, romance, conflict, and more), and rate affinity with Stardew-style hearts.

Each type has its own color, and you can mix colors across hearts on the same row — for example a few friend hearts and a romantic one. Optional Heart Chart view is available under Explore.

Set your weekly free windows on the Availability Finder, add date exceptions, and find overlapping times with other members — or use /when in Discord for the same schedule.

/when find ranks shared slots with Discord timestamps; /when set, /when timezone, and /when exceptions cover quick presets and travel days. Private schedules stay private while planning still shows whether someone is free for a suggested window.

When you post in the bot reports channel and a mod marks it reviewed (✅ or ❌), you receive 300 mon — whether the change is implemented or not. Once per report; it shows on your wallet activity as Bot feedback.

You can put several images on one Discord message and submit that post as a single piece. Mods and the gallery can page through every image; it still counts as one submission.

Play Chō-Han at /chohan (Mechanics → Chō-Han). Cover the cup, call Chō (even) or Han (odd), then lift — fair odds, mon pays 1:1 against the house.

Stake mon, a bag item, or both. Item wins pay a similar-or-higher prize; on a loss the house keeps a staked item. Sign in to play with your wallet — one minute between rolls, and daily caps of 30 rolls, 10,000 mon staked, and 10 item stakes (midnight Eastern). Your win–loss record shows on Profile.

Your streak on a village field with /berryfarm tend now counts each Eastern day you visit in a row, including on busy farms.

After someone rolls on a /ruugame drop, the shared wait before the next person can roll is much shorter — so ping rushes get more turns before balls are claimed.

You still wait a little longer before rolling the same drop again yourself.

Grab the mini game role in Discord to get pinged whenever a mod places Poké Balls with /ruugame spawn.

Anyone can still roll without the role — it only controls whether you get notified when a new drop goes up.

Under Characters → Height comparison, pick approved travelers with a listed height and see them scaled side by side. Full-body art grows with each listed height so you can tell who stands taller.

Add up to eight at once; your picks stay in the page URL so you can share the lineup. Open a name under the lineup for that traveler's public record.

/battle wild encounters are everyday Pokémon found around your village. Legendary, mythical, Paradox, and Ultra Beast Pokémon stay out of the tall grass.

/suggest emoji and /suggest sticker send your image to the mods for review. Once two mods approve it, PokiBot adds it to the server, and you get a DM either way.

Emojis take a PNG, JPG, GIF, or WebP up to 256 KB; stickers take a PNG, APNG, or GIF up to 512 KB (320×320 works best). You can have up to 5 suggestions waiting at a time. /suggest list shows where each one stands, and /suggest withdraw takes one back.

Every village job now offers about the same number of items across its Gather, Combat, Culture, and Crafting focuses, and each one keeps its own specialty. Artisans, Healers, and Potions Masters craft more, fighters find more on Combat shifts, and performers and diviners shine on Culture shifts.

Each focus a job works has its own everyday finds plus a chance at rarer items, so every /job work shift brings something home. Some items moved to new jobs or rarities, and type Gems, Shards, and a few berries and powders are now common everyday finds. Check the item catalog to see which jobs carry an item.

The new Question of the Day page under Characters lists every question with all of its answers. Choose Answer as your OC on any question, pick one of your approved OCs, and write their answer.

PokiBot posts it in the QOTD thread just like /qotd answer and saves it to your OC's page. Use Edit on one of your answers to update or remove it.

Show up to 3 items you're offering and 3 you're looking for on your Profile → Bag and character pages. Press Offer for trade on any bag item, or Want this on another member's bag — it saves on its own, and your shelf lists members whose bags line up with yours. /sell now shows when members are looking for an item.

The new bulletin board forum is home for trades, giveaways, RP requests, and anything else. PokiBot keeps a post for your trade shelf there, helps tag each post, and a /trade run in a trading post marks it done once the trade goes through.

Mods now feature new (and longtime) members as Gijinka of the Month, each with one of their OCs. Meet everyone featured on the home page and the GotM page, and PokiBot posts a welcome whenever someone new is featured.

While a member is GotM, draw their featured OC or submit an RP log with them, title it "GotM: Title", and earn ×2 mon on approval. Everyone in the RP log earns the boost, the GotM included; a GotM drawing their own featured OC earns regular mon.

Every Sunday at midnight US Eastern, PokiBot announces a new Pokérus host. The host earns ×2 mon on every art and writing submission they send that week. The current host, their OCs, and the deadline are always on the home page.

Submit art of one of the host's OCs, or RP with them in a tagged RP scene in the forums, for a chance to catch it — each piece and each shared scene is an entry in the draw for next week's host. Submit by 11:59 PM US Eastern on Saturday.

On each character's birthday, PokiBot posts a little celebration for them in the announcements channel, with their portrait, species, and village.

Birthdays come from each character's record and post at midnight US Eastern. Nobody gets pinged.

Boosting the Pokimono Discord server now earns 3,000 mon every month. New boosters receive their first 3,000 mon the moment they boost.

On the 1st of each month (midnight US Eastern), PokiBot blesses every current booster and posts a thank-you in Arceus Shrine. The blessing comes once per member per month, and it shows as Server booster in your wallet.

The new Calendar under Characters shows every approved character's birthday, running events, and each month's village quests.

Tap a date to see who is celebrating and which events start, close sign-ups, or end that day. Use the filters to focus on birthdays, events, or quests.

Type ! glued to a character's name, like !hizashi, and PokiBot replies with their portrait, species, level, village, job, and who plays them, plus a button to their character page.

First names, last names, full names, and Pokimono IDs (like !C00012) all work. When a name fits more than one OC, the others are linked under Also matches.

Artists can now advertise commissions in the Art commissions thread in #art-talk. Copy the pinned template, fill in your prices, slots, and examples, and post it as one message.

Keep one post per artist and edit it when your status changes, or delete and repost to bump it up to once a week. Looking for art? Browse the thread and DM the artist whose style you like.

/drink challenge pits your OC against any other OC. Each round both drinkers press Drink! to roll a d20, and the first to 5 strikes passes out. Poison typing and your OC's tolerance (set with /drink tolerance) give Advantage or Disadvantage automatically.

PokiBot saves every OC's wins, losses, and head-to-head results — check them with /drink stats and see the top drinkers with /drink leaderboard.

Tick This piece is 18+ / NSFW under Content rating when you submit art or writing, and add content warnings so people know what to expect.

18+ pieces sit behind a warning in the gallery, on character pages and profiles, and in the review queue, and open only when someone chooses Show.

On Discord, post 18+ art in an NSFW channel. Anywhere else, tick Mark as spoiler when you upload the image (or wrap an image link in ||bars||). The site checks your post when you submit.

Change the rating anytime: while a piece waits for review, use Mark 18+ on its card under Art queue on your profile, and once it's in the gallery, use the button in its viewer. Mods can also mark a piece 18+ during review.

Every member can pick each ripe bush once with /berryfarm tend, so visiting later in the day still finds fruit.

A bush stays up for 24 hours after its first pick, then the patch returns to bare soil for new planting.

An OC holding Shed Shell can Run or use Teleport in /battle even when trapped by Wrap-style moves, Mean Look, Block, Spider Web, Anchor Shot, Shadow Tag, Arena Trap, or Magnet Pull.

Running away still depends on Speed, and the holder's own Ingrain roots still keep it in place.

Each roster character's page has a Combat record: wild battles fought, wins, losses, and escapes, total damage dealt, duel results, and their top rival — the OC they've dueled most.

It also tracks times fainted and revived, HP restored with /pray, and for Healers and Potions Masters, patients treated with /job heal. Wild battles count up to the daily limit of 10.

The item catalog has a Job focus filter: pick Gather, Combat, Culture, or Crafting to see items that come from that focus track on village work.

Pair it with the Job filter to see exactly what one job brings home on that focus — for example, Farmer on Combat days. With a job picked, "Crafted by this job only" shows just the items that job makes on Crafting shifts.

The Held item category now lists every held item, including Leftovers, Life Orb, Choice Scarf, and Eviolite.

On the site, hover an item name in any Bag to read what it does. Tap or click the name to open that item in the item catalog — handy when you're browsing someone's bag for a trade.

In Discord, /item lookup shows what any catalog item does, its buy and sell prices, and how many you carry. It works in any channel.

Open one of your approved pieces in the gallery and choose Edit tags to add or remove the characters in it. The piece then shows on those characters' pages and in the gallery's character filter.

Quest EXP and reputation stay as they were awarded at approval.

When you sell a crafting ingredient from your bag or the item catalog, the confirmation now lists every item it's used to craft and how many each craft takes.

Crafters may want those materials — you can send them to another member with /gift item or /trade instead.

Search the Art gallery by title, artist, or tagged character, and narrow the results with the new filter menu. Your active filters show above the results.

TM choices on your character's Moves panel now include the moves your species learns in Pokémon Champions, alongside its regular TM moves.

Job Mechanics now opens with the four shift focuses — Gathering, Combat, Crafting, and Culture — and what each one pays, plus a step-by-step walk through a daily shift and how the focus is picked.

New /pray sends one of your OCs to their home village shrine. They come back at full HP, back on their feet if they fainted, with any status effect cured.

One prayer per day across your whole roster, resetting at midnight US Eastern. If the OC you pick is already healthy, the prayer stays unused for later. Finish any wild battle or duel first.

/gift mon and /gift item send mon or bag items straight to another member. /trade offers a swap of mon and items: the other member gets Accept and Decline buttons, and both sides swap the moment they accept. Offers stay open for 15 minutes.

Send up to 10,000 mon and 20 items per day across gifts and trades (resets at midnight US Eastern). Add a note to any of them for the receipt, and both members see the exchange in their wallet activity.

Turn on /rp mentions (or the switch on Profile → Roleplay) and PokiBot DMs you a quote and link whenever someone names your OC in the Roleplay channels, the RP scenes forum, │・headcanons, OC discussion, or the art channels. It starts off.

Each character page now has an Art permissions panel showing what's okay when others draw that OC. Set yours in the Art section of Edit, or for all your characters at once on Profile → Roleplay.

The Pokédex roster can filter by art permission, so artists can find OCs open to fan art.

Posted an OC line by mistake? React ❌ on it within 15 minutes to delete it. Replying with a new line in that window still edits it.

/berryfarm tend tends the farm of the village channel you run it in. Head to your village channel and run it there.

Healer (Gale Spring) and Potions Master (Noir Vale) OCs can treat an OC from their home village with /job heal. A visit restores part of the patient's max HP, gets fainted OCs back up, and cures status conditions.

Run it in the healer's home village Roleplay channel. Each OC can be treated once per day. Healers start at 2 patients a day restoring 50% HP, growing to 5 patients at full HP as their reputation rises.

/qotd ask posts a numbered question in the Question of the Day thread under │・headcanons and pings everyone with the QOTD role. /qotd answer replies as one of your OCs, and the answer is saved to that character's page.

/qotd role turns the pings on or off for you, and /qotd delete removes your question or an OC's answer. Each member can ask one question every 12 hours.

Each OC can start 10 wild battles per day across Discord, the website, and PokiBot challenges. The battle log shows how many you've used, and the count resets at midnight Eastern.

/battle wild and /battle challenge run in your village Roleplay channels. PokiBot opens a thread for your OC (⚔️ OC name · battles) and reuses it for that OC's next fights, so village roleplay stays easy to read.

Wild species and field weather follow the channel you're in.

Mechanics → PokiBot now has a sidebar grouping every command by topic, plus a search box to jump straight to the one you need.

Update which characters are tagged on an art submission while it waits for mod review.

/rp start opens a scene post in the RP scenes forum with up to four partners. PokiBot tags everyone, tracks whose turn it is, pings the next writer, and keeps a running tally of posts and words.

Use /rp join, /rp leave, /rp skip, and /rp mark (Pending, Ongoing, Paused), then /rp end for the final tally. /rp starttracking picks up a post you opened yourself and counts what's already written. /rp dms chooses when PokiBot DMs you about your turn.

On the site, Tracked RPs lists every scene and lets you start one, and Profile → Roleplay shows whose turn it is in each of your scenes.

/roll rolls any dice: d20, 3d6+2, 4d6kh3 (keep the highest 3), d20adv, exploding 3d6!, d%, and Fate dice 4dF. Name the roll and roll several times at once. /rd20 is a quick d20.

/levels characters shows the top approved characters by level, then OC XP. Levels on the site has a matching Characters tab.

Hidden Power picks its type from the target's weaknesses, following Legends: Arceus rules.

Disable seals a wild Pokémon's move; with every move sealed, it uses Struggle. Trick, Bestow, Magician, and Pickpocket follow each fighter's held item slot.

Bag items are for before and after wild battles: finish the fight, then use /item use.

The new Art gallery shows approved art submissions, with an artist filter and a full-size viewer. Each member's profile has a Gallery tab for their own pieces.

When mods ask for revisions, you get their note on Discord. Update the piece and resubmit it. You can also withdraw a pending submission from your profile.

For co-written pieces and RP logs, each collaborator enters their own word count and earns mon for their own words.

Run /rpcount inside any RP thread for each member's posts and words, OC lines included, sorted by posts or words. /rpexport sends you the whole thread as a text or Word file, oldest post first, with an option to include OOC lines.

Edit your character application while it waits for mod review. The form shows whether it's under review or needs changes.
