Dune: Awakening is a well-known MMO survival game that combines PvP and PvE. After its first release on June 25, 2025, it was welcomed by many gamers in a short period of time.

In my opinion, Dune Awakening’s road to popularity is partly because of the influence of big IP. The game is adapted from a well-known novel and movie. It can be said that this powerful IP has brought it a certain amount of heat before the game is released, at least novel and movie fans will be curious about the game.

However, it is far from enough to attract players. Being able to retain players is also an indispensable condition for the game to succeed. Dune Awakening itself must have a very good game mechanism, can bring players a good game experience, and have its own unique style, which is the basis for a game to be popular all over the world.

Now, Dune: Awakening has recently released a new patch, which has made a series of improvements to the deep desert. Next, let’s take a look at the specific content of this patch and what impact it will bring!

Balancing PvE And PvP

In Dune Awakening, PvE and PvP are optional. Previously, Deep Desert was not only a traditional PvP melee area, but also had some PvE areas. This patch 1.1.15.0 has balanced the activity areas of PvE and PvP.

In patch 1.1.15.0, we can see that it takes a full 30 seconds for players to leave PvP melee area, which brings a lot of challenges to all players and makes PvP are more challenging.

However, Dune Awakening patch 1.1.15.0 allows tier six endgame resources to refresh more evenly in safer areas, making them easier to obtain. This is more friendly for players who don’t like confrontation and prefer PvE mode. They can get Stervidium and Titanium without having to fight or confront other players, and better farm $1.

Respawn Timer

The game developers also mentioned in patch 1.1.15.0 that they added a random element to the respawn timer of unique loot containers. This not only affects unique loot containers and containers containing schematics, but also makes the respawn time of treasure chests unpredictable.

I think this change should be related to deep desert labs and PvP shipwrecks, so we can’t just camp in PvP areas to claim rewards.

Sorting Crafting Components

Patch 1.1.15.0 also sorted the crafting components of Plleanium tier. Shipwrecks and buried treasure will drop components from any location, and each item will drop its own selected component at a random location, but they are very limited.

And now PVE loot in Deep Desert has a chance to drop different unique items, you may get different blueprints from PVE area and PvP area.

Landsraad Quests

Landsraad quests have been changed in this patch. Before, you could no longer get rewards after the quest was completed. Now, you can continue to participate and get personal rewards regardless of whether you complete the quest.

Fixes

Contract rewards will no longer drop, so you will not miss rewards even if your backpack is full. Pentashield surfaces will no longer overlap with existing pentashield surfaces. The bug of building your own vehicle with items from other players’ inventory has also been fixed.

The developers have also improved the stability of the game this time, which has promoted the improvement of the player’s gaming experience. It also reduces the situation where sandworms push vehicles under terrain conditions, so players no longer have to worry about vehicles disappearing. New audio alarms have also been added to PVP area to give players a sense of hearing freshness.

Existing Problems

Although this patch has made many improvements to the game, there are still malicious sabotage issues in the game that have not been resolved.

For example, in PvE area, when a group of players ambush you while driving a carrier, they will want to push you into the sand and let you be eaten by bugs because you are too slow.

But this behavior does not benefit them at all, and this behavior should not happen in PvE area. I hope that the collision of ornithopter can be removed in PVE area in the future.

In short, patch 1.1.15.0 brings some very significant improvements, but there are other loopholes that have been ignored by the game developers. I hope that Dune: Awakening will bring me more and better game experience in the future, making it easier for players to farm Dune Awakening Solari.

If you like Dune Awakening, please follow me. In the future, I will bring you more game updates and various guides to help you complete tasks better in the game.

Since Helldivers 2 was released last year, players have experienced different campaigns, big and small. It is different from traditional plot games. The focus is not on a coherent storyline, but on the interspersed diversity of Major Orders and irregular update events.

It is more like a combination of a multiplayer online game and a traditional single-player gun-action game. Therefore, each update will give players different tasks, and the game experience will also be different.

There are two things that attract players the most in the recent update. One is the different enemies to challenge, and the other is that all players may be given a commemorative cape unconditionally.

New Major Orders, New Enemies And New Challenges

After the players experienced the climax battle to defend Super Earth, new enemies and new Major Orders were also launched. The latest Major Order is to defend against a large-scale Automaton invasion. And Jetpack Hulks have become the main enemy in the game. Players can see their figures in the sky during combat missions.

Because these Hulks are equipped with jetpacks, they move very fast. Of course, in order to reduce the difficulty of the battle to a certain extent, their movement trajectory is set relatively simple, and players can predict it after a period of time. And Hulks are relatively large, so players can easily hit them.

By joining different battles and completing corresponding tasks, players can get rich rewards. Of course, if you want to complete the challenge more easily, you need to use $1 to get Premium Warbound to upgrade their weapons, and you can also unlock different appearance kits.

New War Experience

Because it has just been launched, many players are still adapting to the settings and related operations of weapons. However, due to the new enemy settings, most players are very excited and enjoy the fierce battle against the air.

At first, players didn't believe their eyes and thought that there was a bug in the game during the battle, but later they gradually adapted to this. This is actually the most common scene in the new battle. Players can enjoy the spectacular air battles and see the fireworks formed by the enemy's explosion in the air.

Feedback And Compensation For All Players

Because the game company's login restriction problem caused extreme dissatisfaction among players last year, players bombarded Helldivers 2 with negative reviews on Steam at that time. Thousands of negative reviews bombed on Steam, causing an uproar. In the end, the game company and the players reached an agreement and the problem was solved.

In order to commemorate this incident and appease the players, the game developers decided to give all players a special gift unconditionally in the future: Pillars of Freedom Capes, also known as "review bomb" capes by players.

Because in the game, most of the appearance items and powerful weapons need to be unlocked through Warbonds, and this time the capes may not only be free, but also have a certain commemorative significance. So this has aroused great expectations among the majority of players. After all, which player doesn't want to have a cool cape with commemorative significance for free?

As the modern game market becomes more and more prosperous, players have higher and higher requirements for the affordability and diversity of in-game products, so a variety of trading websites have emerged for players to choose from.

However, in this mixed trading market, there are many scams that players need to be vigilant. So in order to prevent more players from losing money and their gaming accounts, it is very important to reveal the scams used in three most common scam sites in here.

I hope that after understanding the evil deeds of those fraudulent websites, all players will actively forward them in major communities and social platforms so that their ugly behavior can be exposed more.

1. MMOWOW.com

First of all, almost all trading websites will claim that the goods they sell are low-priced and good-quality to guide all players to consume. However, some websites are suspected of false propaganda, especially in terms of product transaction security and delivery speed.

As the world’s largest review website, Trustpilot may have the most power to reveal this scam. The first one worth introducing is MMOWOW.com, which has a rating of only 4.3 points, which is very rare.And among all the less than 100 reviews, there are 13% one-star reviews and 3% two-star reviews!

Among them, some players said that they wanted to communicate with the staff when their orders were delayed or had other problems. However, the staff did not find the order they placed, and finally found that MMOWOW.com reserved the contact information of other trading websites, not its own.

This should not happen at all for a game product trading website based on trust. So when players choose a trustworthy game trading website in the future, they can go to Trustpilot to check its ratings and review details to avoid similar scams.

Not only that, this fraudulent website is not only about false advertising, but also copycatting web design from some authoritative trading websites. If you have ever entered IGGM.com, a very top game market center, you will find that MMOWOW.com is really similar to it, Whether it is the design of the top tab or the sales interface of each game product.

In Reddit, some players have publicly stated that entering MMOWOW.com feels like entering IGGM.com, because of familiar button positions and familiar ordering methods.

But in fact, if some players who are not familiar with these trading sites place an order in this fake IGGM, but fail to get the service they should have, and find a trading website that they have never placed an order on through the high similarity of web design, is this a great scam?

2. Igmeet.com

Another one is igmeet.com. Although it has a rating of 4.5 in Trustpilot, it still has 6% one-star reviews in only 63 reviews. Similarly, most of the negative comments from players on igmeet.com are about the fact that it did not complete the delivery within the stipulated time and did not respond to customer service in a timely manner as originally promised.

And the worst thing is that it once wanted to threaten players to cancel their refund applications to maintain its seemingly high transaction volume. But the focus of its scam is not here, but its game news section.

Under normal circumstances, these game product trading websites will publish corresponding news by tracking game hot spots, and add in-site product links as the main way to guide some passers-by players to place orders. This is not a problem in itself.

But in igmeet.com, it copied the game news in IGGM.com to its own website without any bottom line, and transferred the product pictures that belonged to the original website intact. This is a completely bad behavior that disrupts players’ judgment and trading market rules!

And when you enter the interface of igmeet.com that lists various game news, you will find that all the pictures of the articles cannot be displayed, which means that the running code in the original link is not compatible with the settings of the developer of this website.

This clearly shows that igmeet.com is a complete scam website, which uses other people's game information to pretend that it has a very large operation team to deceive players' trust and guide them to place orders. When there is a problem with the player's order, it is too late. This scam is very fatal to all players.

3. Iggms.com

Anyone who has a little understanding of the current rules of the Internet should know that the domain name on the website is like ID card used by everyone, showing that they are unique.

However, iggms.com seems to have completely deviated from this rule, using a domain name very similar to IGGM to commit fraud, and it even has no courage to enter Trustpilot and be evaluated by all players.

Although the distance between M and S on the keyboard is far, it does not mean that there will be no typos. Under normal circumstances, when players search for IGGM in Google or major search engines, the first thing they see must be this genuine and authoritative trading platform.

However, if there is a typo or the search engine misidentifies it, the search results obtained by the player are likely to be biased towards iggms.com. When players place orders on this trading website full of fraud, they are likely to mistake it for IGGM.com and fall into this scam.

Most importantly, there is a big loophole in the introduction of Monopoly Go Stickers on the homepage of iggms.com: the domain name IGGM.com is directly used in the title. It can only be said that the plagiarism trick of iggms.com is really low level, and any player with a little bit of insight will find the trick.

Therefore, it is very important for players to identify the logo or domain name of the trading website. As for iggms.com, which relies on other trading websites to bring higher traffic or higher transaction volume, it will be punished sooner or later.

I hope that the information provided by this guide can help you avoid these 3 fraudulent websites forever and choose a highly popular and trustworthy trading place to obtain game products. We still hope that all players can spread their bad deeds in the current hot player community and social media to expand their influence. I wish you a happy game!

Recently, with everyone’s attention, the joint cooperation between Monopoly GO and Star Wars has been smoothly launched. This linkage will last for two months, mainly about the characters related to Skywalker Saga and The Mandalorian in Star Wars. Monopoly GO will also provide Star Wars-related characters, themed emoticons, dice and shields for players to collect.

Since its release in 2023, Monopoly GO has developed rapidly and achieved high profits in a very short time, making it one of the most successful mobile games in history. And its extremely high game update frequency and continuous linkage with other brands has always attracted the attention of players.

At the end of September 2024, the most popular event among players was the collaboration between Monopoly GO and Marvel. The event lasted from September 26 to December 5, and players could unlock content related to Marvel heroes in the game. So this collaboration between Monopoly GO and Star Wars also attracted much attention from players and is regarded as a very “groundbreaking” collaboration. 

The collaboration has been online since May 1, and players can enter the game and unlock Skywalker Saga in Star Wars series and The Mandalorian in Disney+ series. Interestingly, in this collaboration, players can see the game character Peg-E watching “Star Wars” in Mr. Monopoly’s cinema in Monopoly GO. The most unexpected thing about this collaboration is that the world of Monopoly GO will also be rebuilt based on Star Wars.

In this collaboration, players can log in to Monopoly GO and complete activities to earn Star Wars-related stickers. In addition, those who log in to the game on May 4 will receive a special token “in honor of all Star Wars fans.” to commemorate this collaboration.

Collaboration Content And The Possibility Of Multiple Collaborations

Holding Tycoon Racers multiplayer events with Pod and Rebel Racers at iconic locations such as Mos Espa Grand Arena and Hoth; teaming up with friends to participate in cooperative activities such as building statues and starships; and participating in special excavation activities on Tatooine to potentially earn Star Wars souvenirs.

In this event, collecting $1 also rewards a large number of Star Wars-themed emoticons, dice, and shields in the game for players to collect.

If both parties are absolutely satisfied with this collaboration between Monopoly GO and Star Wars, then Monopoly GO may have a second or third collaboration with Star Wars. After all, Fortnite has reached many collaborations with Star Wars, and Star Wars’ film and television dramas, video games, and novels will be released one after another. Future cooperation should be more distinctive.

Recently, the content leaks of Genshin Impact 5.7 have emerged one after another, especially the information about the two new characters Skirk and Dahlia, which has caused heated discussions in the player community. Although the current game is still in Version 5.5, concerns about the new characters are continuing to ferment.

According to the current leaked information, Skirk, as an important NPC in main Fontaine line, has been highly anticipated by players since his appearance. Although Skirk's specific values ​​have not yet been exposed, we can also guess that the mechanism of this five-star character may be overly dependent on Cryo meta. Then her flaws are also easily exposed - when the environment changes, her strength will be greatly reduced.

At the same time, the leak of the four-star Hydro character Dahlia is equally disturbing. This new character, who may come from Mondstadt, will focus on Attack Speed ​​buffer. It is worth noting that this is not the only four-star support with attack speed buff as the core in Genshin Impact in the past two years. Because of this, this repetitive design immediately raised questions about the usefulness of the character, after all, the strategic value of attack speed stats in the current version is still controversial.

Mika's Dilemma

Previously, Mika's launch as a 4-star Cryo character had suffered a major failure. Many players considered this a disaster, as he was undoubtedly one of the worst supports.

This Knights of Favonius front-line surveyor is very young. He is mainly attack speed buff and Physical DMG buffs, and can also bring a certain degree of healing to teammates. But unfortunately, no matter from which aspect, his bonus ability is not ideal, or even equivalent to no effect. In addition, attack speed is usually not an important stat in Genshin Impact, which made Mika quickly abandoned by players and chose other characters as a replacement.

It is worth noting that Dahlia's current leaked information has many similarities with Mika. They are both 4-star supports and can also serve as an Attack Speed ​​buffer. They are even likely to come from Mondstadt! This really makes people worry that Dahlia will repeat Mika's mistakes.

What's more worrying is that the current version already has a more practical character like Yun Jin. If Dahlia cannot provide a breakthrough mechanism, then his existence value will be questioned by many players. After all, for most players, it is better to prioritize the cultivation of the existing team rather than consuming $1 to extract a new character that is not easy to use.

Attack Speed

To understand the players' concerns, we first need to understand the awkward position of attack speed in the combat system of Genshin Impact. Unlike basic stats such as HP, ATK, and DEF, attack speed is only slightly effective for some characters who rely on Normal Attacks as their main damage output, but it is also very limited.

Even for characters such as Ayato, Ayaka, Itto, and even Yoimiya, higher attack speed allows these characters to attack more frequently and increase their overall damage output to the enemy, but in fact their output limit does not depend on the attack frequency. This feature makes Attack Speed ​​buffer often give people a sense of dispensability.

Judging from the existing information, if Dahlia wants to avoid repeating Mika's mistakes, he still needs to focus on solving his practicality problem first. How can he have his own outstanding advantages compared with other similar characters? We can only hope that the developer will do it.

However, these are our own speculations, after all, these leaks may be wrong. The information we know about Dahlia is not complete enough, and it is not rational to make arbitrary conclusions based on the current information.

What's more, these concerns also reflect the players' anxiety about the lack of innovation in character design. Since the release of Genshin Impact, the developer has launched nearly 100 controllable characters one after another, and it is difficult to avoid the homogenization of character positioning. But if it is not solved, then for players, this will greatly affect the diversity of the game build, thereby reducing the fun of the game.

All in all, the information we currently have about Version 5.7 is not sufficient, and more key information will be revealed later. We hope that the developer can avoid repeated mistakes and keep pushing Genshin Impact forward!

While Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail are constantly refreshing players' views on open world games, HoYoverse's highly anticipated Zenless Zone Zero is about to usher in a major update, including new areas, new characters and new factions. This news makes all proxies feel excited.

New Areas Waifei Peninsula

This place, famous for mining and refining Porcelume, is located in Throne Quarter, on the outskirts of Lemnian Hollow, and is full of dangers. The story of ZZZ version 2.0 will begin here.

Waifei Peninsula was originally used as a monitoring zone to monitor Lemnian Hollow, the original hollows in the game. And its name Waifei Peninsula comes from Cantonese characters.

The earliest residents who settled here were responsible for guarding this extremely dangerous valley. And over time, an outpost was established in Waifei Peninsula area. Eventually it became Failume Heights.

Failume Heights

The city sits on a cliff, with a stunning view of the port and the area. The area is rich in Porcelume, a precious material that resists Ether Corruption. It is a vital material in mining. It is also the economic pillar of the area, but there are many secrets hidden behind it.

Perhaps many clues that have not been answered before will be connected here, such as Sarah's true plans, the conspiracy of Exaltists, etc. But I think the most important thing is the biggest mystery that the two proxies have always wanted to know - the truth about the fall of the old capital and the secrets that Phaethon siblings have been keeping. In short, I am sure that players will get a great new adventure here.

Lemnian Hollow

As an original Hollows hiding an ancient civilization, although Lemnian Hollow has only been mentioned once before, it has always been the most active hollow, often causing trouble for nearby residents.

Now, players can look forward to exploring here in 2.0. Oh, and there's also a bigger and more complete Aerospace City ruin waiting for you.

New Character

As a key figure in Season 2, Yixuan is the current leader of Yunkui Summit. Her striking yellow cape easily leaves a deep impression. She will appear with new members from Defense Force's Obol Squad and the previously revealed idol group Angels of Delusion.

In 2.0, players can become a new disciple of Yunkui Summit and learn Yixuan's craft. Although it is not yet known what this is, with Yixuan as a mentor, it will be exciting to learn anything! Perhaps from now on, players will have to consciously accumulate $1.

New Factions

There will be many major factions in Season 2. Some of them have appeared and returned again, and some are making their debut. They are Angels of Delusion and Obol Squad from Defense Force.

In addition, a new teaser trail will be released on April 13, through which players can learn more about what they want to know.

Other Improvements

In addition to the above new content, Version 2.0 also brings some gameplay improvements to everyone, which can effectively enhance the player's gaming experience.

Map Enhancements

The map experience of Zenless Zone Zero has been greatly improved, integrating residential and combat areas together, bringing players a smoother and more realistic experience. From now on, there will be no more annoying long scene switching, which will make the game more convenient.

Especially Failume Heights, its scale has been expanded, and many new features have been added. All of this makes it more like a complete city. The larger scope also gives it unlimited expansion space in the future.

What is more concerning is that Failume Heights may have a new daily system to be released, and there may also be a mini-game about Suibian Temple. I hope the official will give more instructions about this mini-game in the future.

Travel System & UI Changes

Meanwhile, Zenless Zone Zero Season 2 also brings a new Travel System & UI.

Travel System: Version 2.0 not only brings a larger map format but also adds very convenient features such as mini-map and navigation tools. In addition, you can now travel directly between Failume Heights and Hollow without going to the video store! This really helps a lot, doesn't it? UI: New UI combines all content and everything together, so that Proxies can now enjoy faster destination selection speed and clearer New Eridu's geography.

In addition to the above, the game has also made improvements in plot and combat methods, but the information we know is not enough at present. We will continue to pay attention to official information in the future. I hope to get more new surprises.

By the way, there is another very important news - the developer is exploring ways to release it to different platforms. It is said that Zenless Zone Zero will land on Xbox in the future! This means Xbox owners will also have the opportunity to experience ZZZ's exciting combat, breathtaking visuals, and a whole new chapter in Proxy's adventure.

As 2nd anniversary of Honkai Star Rail approaches, players' attention is subtly switching between 3.2 Amphoreus campaign update and the preview information of 3.3. After seeing the gameplay kit of Hyacine leaked in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.3, I was very curious - can this upcoming 5-star Wind Healer really change the current healing pattern of Luocha, Lingsha, and Huohuo?

The leak details Hyacine' s active abilities, her passive traces, her eidolons, etc. If the leaked information is accurate and has not changed after the release of Version 3.3, players can prepare for all these equipment in advance and pre-acquire them.

Version 3.3 Leaks

As an important NPC in Amphoreus plot line, Hyacine has aroused speculation since her debut due to her unique memosprite mechanism. Now HoYoverse has officially confirmed through official dynamics that this Remembrance Character will be launched as a playable character in May, and the equally popular Cipher will also be launched at the same time.

According to the current leaked information, we can clearly know the fact that players will consume numerous $1 in version 3.3, which may trigger a new round of resource hoarding craze.

Although version 3.2 has occupied the center of the topic with Castorice, Anaxa and Amphoreus campaign updates, with this leak of news, many players have set their sights on the more strategically profound version 3.3. According to the latest capture records of Honey Hunter World database, Hyacine's skill set presents an amazing composite healing characteristic, and its mechanism design around the dual core of Max HP & SPD may bring revolutionary changes to tactical system of Honkai Star Rail.

Hyacine Complete Kit

According to leaked information, Hyacine's Complete Kit contains three disruptive mechanisms:

Dynamic HP conversion system: Normal attacks directly link the percentage of maximum HP to maintain the output threat while stacking survival attributes. Memosprite Ica: This permanent summons inherits 50% of Hyacine's maximum HP. It can not only achieve full automatic endurance through out-of-turn healing, but also has a unique gain stacking mechanism. Petrichoric Clear Skies state: Three-turn Petrichoric Clear Skies state triggered by using Ultimate, at which time Hyacine will heal all team characters. The amount of healing is a certain percentage of her own maximum HP plus a fixed value.

When Hyacine is in Petrichoric Clear Skies state, Ica will take action immediately after Hyacine uses a skill. When Ica triggers Talent's healing effect, it will restore additional HP to friendly targets. This powerful healing power can make the team worry-free, which makes Hyacine a good choice for players to build a team.

It is particularly worth noting that Ica is a non-turn-based action - this memosprite that does not appear on the action bar can trigger healing after any friendly unit acts. This kind of detachment from the traditional restriction mechanism completely breaks the tactical framework of the existing healing role. When paired with new Relic set Warrior Goddess of Daythunder, Ica's Gentle Rain effect triggered each round can provide an additional 15% team crit damage. Hyacine's design that deeply binds survival and output gain makes Hyacine's strategic value far beyond traditional healers.

Ideal Build

The exclusive Relic Daybreak Thunder Valkyrie mentioned in the leaked intelligence is clearly designed to target Hyacine's mechanical pain points:

2-piece: It can increase the player's SPD by 60%, which also directly relieves the pressure of Hyacine build. 4-piece: When the treatment is triggered, it gains Gentle Rain state, providing an additional 6% SPD and 15% team critical damage.

This set of Relics perfectly meets Hyacine's need for SPD and also forms a perfect closed loop with her own abilities. This makes it possible for her to become the most powerful healing profession and one of the characters with best sustain in Honkai Star Rail.

In terms of lineup matching, the synergy between Hyacine and Tribbie is particularly prominent - Tribbie can increase its own maximum HP according to the total maximum HP of its allies, so HP limit increase provided by Hyacine can be converted into double benefits, and this mechanism linkage may give birth to new tactics.

However, its strict build requirements may also become a problem - in order to exert the full strength, players need to obtain Relic and Ornament pieces with SPD as the sub-stat to meet her needs for SPD. This may require players to consume a lot of game resources to achieve. This high investment and high return feature may make Hyacine a good helper for krypton gold players. Civilian players may need to wait a little for the subsequent mechanism.

In any case, for players who lack a talented healer, Hyacine will be the best choice, and we look forward to her arrival bringing us more surprises!

In Pokémon GO, challenging Team Rocket leader Sierra is a battle that tests a trainer's strategy and strength. As the captain of the infamous Team Rocket, Sierra has a powerful Shadow Pokémon team. Defeating her not only proves your strength, but also earns you rich rewards and even a chance to capture Shadow Pokémon.

This article will give you a detailed analysis of Sierra's team configuration in April, the best battle strategy, and how to maximize your benefits.

Preparation

Before challenging Sierra, you need to assemble a Rocket Radar. This key item can be obtained by defeating 6 ordinary Team Rocket soldiers. It can help you locate one of three Team Rocket leaders - Sierra, Arlo or Cliff. Although you only have a 33% chance of encountering Sierra when you first use the radar, if you defeat the other two leaders, the system will gradually narrow the range and increase your chances of finding her.

It is worth noting that if you don't want to spend too much time collecting Rocket Radar, you can also buy it directly in the store using Pokémon Go PokeCoins. However, for players who like a challenge, accumulating Radar Fragments through battles is also a more rewarding way to get them.

Sierra's Pokémon Team

Sierra's team consists of three Shadow Pokémon, which are divided into three waves. Although Sierra's first Pokémon is predetermined, she randomly chooses her second and third Pokémon, creating varied team compositions for each battle. Here is a list of Pokémon she may use in April 2025:

First wave fixed Pokémon: (Shadow) Skorupi Second wave reserve Pokémon: (Shadow) Milotic, (Shadow) Ninetales, (Shadow) Ferrothorn Third wave reserve Pokémon: (Shadow) Nidoqueen, (Shadow) Drapion, (Shadow) Houndoom

Each of Sierra's Pokémon in each wave is a Shadow variant, which means that they have higher health and deal more damage when attacking. This makes choosing the right team crucial. If you have a powered-up Shadow or Mega Pokémon, send them out to show off your best abilities!

Best Teams

Although Sierra's battles are challenging, they are still slightly easier than in Master League of Pokémon GO. Therefore, Pokémon that perform well in PVP will generally perform well against Sierra. Based on her Pokémon pool, we recommend the following core lineup:

Swampert (Water/Ground)

Super effective against Houndoom, Drapion, Nidoqueen, and Ninetales.

Recommended moves: Mud Shot + Hydro Cannon.

Magnezone (Electric/Steel)

Counters Milotic and Ninetales, especially Electric moves that are very effective against Water-type Milotic.

Recommended moves: Spark + Wild Charge.

Blaziken (Fire/Fighting)

Easily defeats starter Skorupi, and deals high damage to Ferrothorn and Nidoqueen.

Recommended moves: Counter + Blast Burn.

The best counter to Sierra is Swampert, as it can deal tremendous damage to most of Sierra's Pokémon. Especially with Shadow or Mega Swampert, you can further increase the damage and even kill the opponent in one hit.

Rewards for defeating Sierra

Upon successfully defeating Sierra, you will receive the following rewards:

1,000 Stardust 4x Revive 2x Max Revive 4x Hyper Potion 2x Max Potion 1x Unova Stone 1x 12km Strange Egg

In addition, you will enter a special encounter with a chance to capture Sierra's Shadow Skorupi. This Pokémon is not only rare, but also has a very low chance of appearing in Shiny form! If you plan to challenge Sierra multiple times, it is recommended to have at least one Egg slot available to ensure that you can get a 12km Strange Egg. In addition, you can also use $1 to get incubators to hatch, and you may get rare Shadow Pokémon after hatching.

Tips: How to optimize the battle experience? Use weather bonuses: Rainy days can enhance the strength of Swampert, while sunny days can increase the damage caused by Blaziken. Proper use of weather can make the battle easier. Teamwork: If you have friends who are also challenging Sierra, you can exchange intelligence with each other and share your current team configuration to adjust your strategy.

Defeating Sierra is not only a contest of strength, but also a great opportunity to obtain rare resources. With reasonable team configuration and tactical adjustments, you will definitely have the upper hand in this battle. Now, pick up your Rocket Radar and meet the challenge!
