Great Challenge

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

AGreat Challenge (Japanese:スーパーチャレンジSuper Challenge) is a type ofspecial stage inPokémon Shuffle that has a move-limited format and features a wide variety of powerful Pokémon, including manyLegendary andMythical Pokémon. Early in the game's life, many of these stages gave a bonus reward after completing the stage for the first time. These stages cost Coins or Hearts to play. To play a Great Challenge, the player must have clearedmain stage 90.

For the game's end-of-service period, Great Challenge stages began running on a consistent24-week schedule, with each lasting one week. All 24 weeks have at least two Great Challenges available. The amount of Great Challenges andHigh-Speed Challenges available in a single week always has a shared total of 5, with three of those costing Heart ×1 to play, one costing Hearts ×2, and one costing Coins ×300.

High-Speed Challenges are a time-limited complement to Great Challenges.Ultra Challenges are a harder version of Great Challenges. Some Great Challenges also reappeared asGreat Daily events.
