I haven't posted in this thread in a long time (or at all)

Taken directly from the PBA Facebook page:

Pokemon Battle Arena has just had a major overhaul in terms of User Interface. This will suit all mobile devices, hopefully. If you have feedback, please drop it in here. If any of the feature has been missed out, it will be quickly re-added. Thanks for your support!

[PrincessPhoenix]

Today was the release of a massive map overhaul! All route and elemental maps received a design revision that accomplished 3 things:
1) Fix maps that had horrible collisions
2) Improve the map design so they didn't look so squarish
3) Make the maps able to piece together into one large world map

For a more visual representation of what I'm talking about with point 2 and 3 (note- Elemental maps are not included here) see the map links below:

Original PBA Route overview
New PBA route overview

The key landmarks of each route map have been preserved to the best of my abilities so they should still have a bit of familiarity to them. The landing coordinates for some maps have yet to be adjusted, and will be completed in the next few days.

You may need to clear your cache for the map images to update on your end.

If you encounter any collision problems (I do expect some hiding about) please post them to the error section of the forum and I'll fix them! (These maps had no way to be pre-tested before their addition)

You can now use Potions during Wild Battles!

This post doubles as a FAQ on the subject

Unlike the official games where each Pokemon capable of mega-evolving has its own mega stone, PBA has 1 mega stone that can mega-evolve all Pokemon that are capable of mega evolution (that are currently released in game).

How do I get a Mega Stone?
There are currently 3 ways to obtain them:
1. Win the daily lotto
2. Complete the daily challenge (go to Conquests > Challenge)
3. Win contests and raffles that are occasionally held

How do I evolve a Pokemon to mega?
If the Pokemon is eligible, it will have an "Evolve Me!" button on the right side just like all the other evolutions. Evolve it as you would for any other item-based evolutions.

Can I mega-evolve alternate forms of a Pokemon? (For example, Fiery or Ditto-face Venusaur to Mega Venusaur?)
Currently no. The mega-evolution is only for the original version of a Pokemon.
