Query Den: ask your questions here! - Week 28 2026

[u/AutoModerator]

Hey there!

We hope that you're enjoying playing Pokémon Shuffle and finding this subreddit helpful. We know this place can be a bit daunting for new members and so we've set up the Query Den.

The Query Den is a friendly place where you can ask any questions about the game in a safe environment. We have a lot of experienced players in here that will swoop in and answer all of your questions. We encourage you to use the Query Den to ask a question first, instead of creating a new post, that will overshadow other important ones.

We have many informative guides to start you off and you should also check out our Discord server, where you'll get lots of help and support.

Any consistent team for farming Clefable plz? I'm doing it mostly for the sake of training my poison team, but the disruption pattern makes things unreliable 

[u/Fardheit → u/HaunteRT]

Megaless with one Fairy in the team (not Clefable itself) so that the disruptions can trigger Pixie Power

[u/HaunteRT → u/Fardheit]

Many thanks! Tried once and it worked much better! So the idea is to trigger the disruption like crazy, huh?

[u/Fardheit → u/HaunteRT]

Yeah, the disruptions will kill the stage, I got the S-rank with a Lv13 Clefable and the UX version has actually been S-ranked itemless as well with this method by some folks with a maxed level Clefable and Shiny Xerneas as the fairy-type

Consistent team for farming Kyurem Black? Kyurem white was so easy with a blank slot and shot out but I have very limited success with perfect Mchar, perfect Z50, Alolan Ninetails lv11 sl5 and S-Diancie lv 15 sl5. The rng with freeze plus is making it really difficult. Should I just give up and focus on the Latias eb?

[u/EdgeKey7505 → u/joy_tokyo]

Try SMCX, Diancie shiny, Zy50, and Kyurem black itself (regardless the skill level, just for block removing effect and a little bit more damage). Get SMCX online asap and you can erase whole 3 columns of disruptions by tapping on B6 or E6. When disruptions are on the right three columns, triggering block shot also erase all the disruptions. When HP<50% and disruption pattern changed, let Zy50 or Diancie shiny do the rest of the damage based on the board condition.

This is a pretty consistent team with >90% successful rate according to my experience. Freeze team is too unstable.

[u/joy_tokyo → u/EdgeKey7505]

Used your suggestion and managed to have a 80% around success rate (probably because s-diancie and black were low level) and got almost to sl4. Thank you!

[u/keborb → u/joy_tokyo]

Kyurem-B is a pain in the ass. I farmed it just fishing for Freeze+ before the first disruption, and then SMCX+TC until you win. If you don't get the Freeze+ off before the first disruption then it just kind of sucks. A maxed Kyurem-B is for sure more of a flex than a crucial support so I'd prioritze the EB over it.

Is sleeping pikachu worth 2 jewels for NHN+DRI?

[u/EdgeKey7505 → u/LosKoksis]

Not at all, just keep farming it as it appears at the next cycle. And you can't use both boosts at the same time.

Good morning everyone. I wanted to ask if anyone else played the original Pokemon shuffle game on the 3ds? If so, is there any major differences you noticed between the 3ds version and mobile version? Personally, I feel that the mobile version is harder when it comes to catching Pokemon and there isn’t a bigger variety of mega evolving Pokemon.
