Series 1 VGC and OU will remain on daily updated data until end of Dec. to align with changes to those formats (bans & format reveal) since Nov. data was collected.

For this reason, we generally try to keep our mobile app updates to our larger more stable datasets, such that we're not providing stale data once we get through store review.
Format previews are the exception here, but we'll be back to our regular scheduling soon!

Because of this lengthy store review process, our data released in this update is from before the Series 1 announcement, meaning it includes the Paradox and Ruin Pokemon. We saw this potential case coming, but wanted to get the app updated to try and respond to community demand.

Our app is always-offline, so that trainers may use Pikalytics on travels, flights, etc. ✈️⛺️🌲 As well, to ensure no data is ever entering or leaving your phone.
This means we need to submit our data bundled in the app for review - which is a lengthy process with Google ☹️

An update on the Pikalytics mobile offline companion app - Scarlet & Violet data will be coming in early December!
Due to the offline nature of our mobile app, we generally do not publish the fast-changing format previews, as releases must occur slowly via app store updates.
