Mining

The aim of mining is to get the stone you're mining as close to 1HP as possible, without breaking it. If the stone does break, you will have to pay a medical fee of a % of your total money, capped at $2M. The closer you get to 1hp, the more reps + spheres you will earn.

Items

There is a total of 5 mining tools. Warhead which is only from item merge excluded, trainers obtain some on the start of their, 20 of each tool every week(if total tool count < 400), by chance 5 from a Trap Box attempt or 20 of each tool after defeating Hiker George on any map and trading 40 rainbow coins for the tools.

Damage can also be affected by the typing of the pokemon using the too, examples below

Steel and Fighting type Type - Amplifies the damage resulting in more damage being done

Normal Type Controls the damage, narrowing the range of damage dealt and making it more predictable

Rock Type - Supresses the damage resulting in less damage being done
