Move Upgrades#

Move Upgrades are one of PokéVoid's most powerful and chaotic systems. They allow you to fundamentally alter any move's behaviour — turning a weak attack into a game-breaking weapon.

How It Works#

During a run, you may be offered a Move Upgrade as a reward. Each upgrade targets a specific move and modifies one aspect of it. The catch: the upgrade applies to ALL copies of that move — your Pokémon, enemy Pokémon, and everything in between.

What Can Be Upgraded#

Each move can have upgrades across multiple paths:

• Power — increase base damage
• Priority — raise or lower the move's priority tier
• Effect — change or add a secondary effect
• Effect Chance — increase the probability of a secondary effect triggering
• Multi-Hit — make the move hit multiple times
• And more — upgrades cover a wide range of modifications

Upgrade Tiers#

Each upgrade starts at Tier 1 (weak) and can be upgraded further. By continuously upgrading the same move, you can elevate even the weakest move to legendary power.

Important Rules#

• A move can only have one effect chance — upgrades either directly set it or inherit the previous value
• The newest upgrade takes priority if two upgrades conflict
• Some upgrade combinations are known to break the game — refresh and choose a different combination if you encounter issues
• Moves can only receive one upgrade from any given category at a time

Game Breaking Combos#

Since you can upgrade almost any move, some combinations will be extraordinarily powerful. This is by design — PokéVoid embraces chaos. If you find a broken combination, report it in the Discord so it can be catalogued.
