Gems can be spent on more Hearts (see AntiPoopSocking), or can be traded in for a payload of Coins, which in turn, can be used to purchase helpful items. However, the game is truly free to play, in that there's nothing in the game that can't be accessed without paying for it.

To many people's surprise, a Nintendo 3DS sequel named ''Pokémon Battle Trozei!'' was announced in February of 2014, and was released worldwide the following month. In this game, the player battles and captures wild Pokémon. The wild target's hit points are lowered by creating matches, but it may attack the playing field in turn, which lowers the player's health. Once a Pokémon's hit points are reduced to zero, it may be captured.

* AntiPoopSocking: In ''Shuffle'', players start with five items called Hearts, and pay one Heart for each stage they wish to play. Once they're out of Hearts, they must either wait an unspecified amount of time before more are gained, or just buy more.

!! Tropes used in ''Pokémon Trozei!'':

** The two games have different methods by which you move Pokémon around the board. In the original, you move them in any of the four cardinal directions and try to line up matches, while ''Battle Trozei!'' has you swap their positions instead. Moving from one system to the other can be very jarring.
