Greetings Trainers,
This month's major game update will be deployed tomorrow. It will require the website to remain offline until game maintenance is complete.
Some of the features in tomorrow's build required a significant investment in resources to prepare for launch. Unfortunately, these were the same resources necessary to complete work on the Tournaments and Avatar Creator components discussed in last month's Community Update. Though both features are close to complete, the priority for the May game is the Black & White—Plasma Freeze expansion. We have prioritized Tournaments over the Avatar Creator and will be making every effort to include it in the May game update. Avatar Creator is currently scheduled for the the June game update.
I sincerely apologize for building excitement for these two features, only to have them delayed by other game components. As a way of making it up to you, I would like give you a sneak peak of a mock-up for the Tournament feature.

As you can tell by this image, we're also planning an overhaul of the game's UI to improve not only the look of the game, but also the ease of use. This is only a preliminary mock-up, so the colors, layout and icons are still subject to change. I'll provide you with more information on this change as it becomes available.
As always, thanks for your support and dedication!
