During Eclipse Burst Battles, the environment undergoes a unique transformation, introducing dynamic changes to the battlefield. The battlefield alternates between Solar and Lunar phases, each lasting for a few turns before transitioning to the other. The Solar phase represents intense sunlight, boosting the power of Fire-type moves and increasing the effectiveness of abilities related to sunlight. On the other hand, the Lunar phase bathes the battlefield in gentle moonlight, enhancing the power of Ice-type moves and providing benefits to abilities associated with moonlight. Solar Phase (3 Turns): Boosts the power of Fire-type moves by 50%. Abilities related to sunlight are enhanced, providing additional effects or boosts. Certain Pokémon may gain stat boosts or effects during this phase. Transition Turn (1 Turn): The battlefield undergoes a gradual shift from Solar to Lunar or vice versa.

Certain Pokémon may gain stat boosts or effects during this phase. Strategic Impact: Trainers need to adapt their strategies based on the phase of the Eclipse Burst Battle, considering the strengths and weaknesses associated with Solar and Lunar phases. Pokémon with moves and abilities that benefit from sunlight or moonlight gain a significant advantage during the respective phases. Minor features in the region: Fossil Dig Sites: Trainers can explore designated areas to participate in fossil digs, uncovering ancient Pokémon fossils. These fossils can be revived to obtain unique Pokémon, including the region's Fossil Pokémon. Seasonal Migration: Certain Pokémon species exhibit seasonal migration patterns, making them more prevalent during specific times of the year.

Trainers can use specialized climbing gear to ascend these heights, discovering hidden areas, rare Pokémon, and breathtaking views. Safari Outposts: Safari Zones in various locations offer unique Safari Outposts, allowing trainers to encounter different Pokémon and items. The available Pokémon and items change periodically, creating a sense of variety in Safari experiences. Night Sky Events: Occasionally, the night sky becomes the backdrop for special celestial events, such as meteor showers or rare lunar phenomena. Trainers can participate in Night Sky Events, where unique Pokémon may appear, and stargazing contests take place. Hot Air Balloon Tours: Trainers can embark on hot air balloon tours to explore the region from above, discovering hidden locations and encountering flying Pokémon that are not easily visible from the ground.

The ingredients used may attract certain Pokémon, providing a unique and immersive way to encounter them. Sounds like this would make for a great adventure.
