Co-op multiplayer in PokéSurvivor allows up to 4 trainers to team up in survival runs. By inviting friends, staying close to revive fallen partners, and sharing field experience, four-player squads can conquer escalating wave bosses across every adventure stage.

Lobby Setup and WebRTC Room Creation

Starting a cooperative session begins from the main menu room interface. The host chooses party play to open a lobby powered by WebRTC direct data channels with server relay fallback, sending invites directly to added friends. Up to 4 players can enter the waiting room simultaneously before the host starts the expedition. If connection drops occur during combat, seamless host migration preserves run progress automatically, ensuring players never lose active stage progression across adventure biomes.

Team Formations, Shared Experience, and Field Item Buffs

In multiplayer runs, minion experience drops are shared across all active participants. When one player gathers experience gems, team experience bars fill equally, allowing partners to level up without fighting over drops. Level-up reward drafts occur individually without forcing teammates to wait, though the selecting player enters a brief personal pause. Collecting a Focus field orb grants +25% critical strike chance for 15 seconds to both the user and nearby allies.

Teammate Revive Mechanics and Downed Recovery

When a trainer takes fatal damage, their character enters a downed status rather than triggering an immediate run failure. Any surviving teammate can stand beside them for 3 seconds to execute the revival sequence. Once completed, the revived player stands up with restored health and an invulnerability buffer lasting 2 seconds.

Boss Health Multipliers and Multiplayer Stat Scaling

To balance multiple damage sources, wave boss health scales dynamically according to squad size. While base damage values remain steady, health pools scale by a 1.82 multiplier for two players, 2.24 for three players, and 2.66 for four players (using the formula (1 + 0.3 * (N - 1)) * 1.4). Timed wave encounters appear at minutes 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 following fixed wave boss spawn timers across Enchanted Forest, Crystal Cave, and Ash Volcano.

Minute 6 Wave Boss Minute 6 (360s) 3200 42 420
Minute 9 Wave Boss Minute 9 (540s) 5600 48 680
Minute 12 Wave Boss Minute 12 (720s) 9000 56 1000
