What's new. Features, data and fixes as they ship.
Trainer levels
Every trainer now has a level. You earn XP for setting up your profile, starting hunts, finding shinies, counting encounters, following trainers and sending reports that are accepted.
Your profile page shows your level, how far you are from the next one, and everything that earns XP.
Levels appear on public profiles and next to names on the Trainers page. What you had already done has been counted.
Trainers: follow each other, and see who's shining
A Trainers page in the main menu: the top trainers by shinies found, the latest shinies, who has counted the most, who is most followed, and new arrivals.
Search for a trainer by name or handle.
Follow any public trainer from their profile. Profiles show follower and following counts, and the Trainers page lists who you follow.
Community rules, reporting, and staff
Every public profile has a "Report this profile" link, for anything offensive, harmful or pretending to be someone else. Reports go to the people who run the site.
A short page of community rules says what is and isn't allowed on profiles.
Staff: trusted trainers can now help review reports about encounter data and verify encounters. They wear a Staff badge on their profile.
Trainer profiles: links, stats and a rank
New accounts set up a trainer profile on first sign-in: a name and a handle. Profiles are public unless you choose to keep yours private, and you can change that at any time.
Add your Twitch, YouTube, X, Bluesky, Instagram or TikTok username and it appears as an icon on your profile.
Public profiles now show stats: shinies hunted here, encounters counted, average per shiny, luckiest find, and a rank among trainers.
Themes and profile extras, on their way with Plus
Choose an accent colour for the whole site in place of gold: rose, sky, mint, violet or ember.
Public profiles can carry a short bio, the owner's accent colour, and up to six pinned shinies shown first.
If Plus ends, the site and profile go back to the defaults and your choices are kept for when it returns.
