Today we're going to talk about the newest feature on Pokemon Aura, Idle mode! Once activated Idle mode will play out a limited number of battles for you.

Notes about Idle mode:

Putting this first as they are pretty important.

  • Macros, scripts, autoclickers, ai helpers, etc are still not allowed.

  • Idle mode is a limited amount of battles daily with reduced rewards. An active user can achieve this limit without penalty in under an hour of active play usually.

  • The tab in which you are playing on will have to be actively showing for the idle system to continue to run.

  • This is intended for more busy players to be able to still make some progress even if they aren't able to actively play.

  • All players may use this, and its benefit to each player will vary.

  • This is only to be used on one account per day.

  • You can not idle on one account, and actively play on another at the same time.

Any questions, comments, concerns can always be messaged to me(Derextreme) in game, or in a direct message on discord.

How to use Idle mode:

First you will need to enter a battle. This can be done on gyms or on an account from the training tab.

Once on the battle screen we will find the idle mode button right under our moves. Clicking this will bring up some options.

Here you can decide to let the Idle choose a random move or a fixed move. Generally you will pick a fixed move, but random moves could be an option if you can't one hit ko the blissey.

Once everything is set to your liking click enable idle mode. Now the idle will play out as long as the game is active on your screen.

Efficiency isn't as important in Idle mode. So you do not necessarily need a move that will KO your opponent in one attack. You will however need to be able to win the battle. Ideally you will be idling againt a blissey account in the training tab.

If you're unable to beat the blissey in one attack then adding DoT effects(burn, poison, leech seed, etc) or power up punch, and activating random moves mode could be effective as well.

If you feel like anything else needs to be explained more, or something added to the guide, feel free to contact Derextreme on discord or direct in game message.
