Points are earned through two ways: winning battles in the Season Battle Tower, and capturing Pokémon in the wild. | |||
===Season Battle Tower=== | ===Season Battle Tower=== | ||
The | The Season Battle Tower is a place for players to battle randomly generated computer-controlled opponents. It can be found in the menu under '''Battles → Season Battle Tower'''. The number of battles won, and the experience received from winning battles, contribute towards the player's seasonal points. | ||
Factors that '''do not''' affect seasonal points include battles and experience gained through any other method (defeating wild Pokémon, gyms, sidequests, other users, etc). | |||
===Capturing Pokémon=== | |||
[[File:Season Caught.png|thumb|A wild Pokémon marked with a Pokéball and a green plus, indicating one has already been caught this season]] | |||
Catching Pokémon in the wild during the season increases the player's seasonal points. | |||
Catching Pokémon during the season | |||
* Each unique Pokémon caught will contribute to the player's total and average season experience. | |||
* Duplicate Pokémon will contribute to average season experience (but not total experience). This still adds to a player's seasonal points, though at a slower rate than from catching uniques. If a player has already caught a certain Pokémon during the current season, a green plus will appear next to the Pokéball when encountered. | |||
Factors that '''do not''' affect seasonal points include: | |||
* Releasing or putting a Pokémon up for trade that was caught during the season – points and other counts will be preserved. | |||
* Training Pokémon caught during the season, unless the intent is to evolve it into a unique Pokémon. Only experience at the time of capture is used (and battles that happen outside the Battle Tower do not count). | |||
* Obtaining Pokémon through any other method other than capturing in the wild, such as trading, winning a [[PokéBay]] auction, or purchasing from the [[Vortex Store]]. | |||

To start receiving points, players must capture at least one Pokémon ''and'' have at least two Battle Tower wins (not one, as <code>ln(1)</code> is still zero). Since <code>√x</code> increases faster than <code>ln(x)</code>, capturing unique Pokémon has a greater impact on seasonal points than completing battles, especially at larger numbers. | To start receiving points, players must capture at least one Pokémon ''and'' have at least two Battle Tower wins (not one, as <code>ln(1)</code> is still zero).
