What the developer said
"We have it all planned out and it will launch shortly after Season 2. More details very soon. We want to make sure that, in terms of server and infrastructure, it doesn't destabilize our current project."
— PokéBonk team, Oct 19, 2026
At the beta launch on Oct 15 the team described it as a co-op mode for up to 4 players, originally aimed at the following week; it was later moved to just after Season 2 so it doesn't strain the servers.
