 Following the C&D order, on 23rd April 2011 it was announced that Pokemon World Online will start up once again alongside CodeCore Entertainment. With Zammbi inactive, Shane and Xanatus assumed the role of project leaders after reviving the project, who decided to host the server in Sweden, due to the copyright laws in the country that are suitable for PWO to be hosted in.
-On July 18th, 2011, a newly appointed PWO developer, Zidonuke (promoted July 14, 2011), deleted PWO's data and server-side coding. The issue began when he became frustrated with criticism from the community through the [[IRC_Chatroom|IRC]], and attempted to delete the channel. He also attempted to enforce a rule that prohibited staff from joining the channel lest they be banned from all facets of PWO. However, due to great opposition from the community, he revoked his actions. As consequence to his behavior, he was banned from the chat room. However, he continued to communicate with the channel through other means, even though it was unwanted by most of the channel users. This constant, negative communication continued to put a strain between Zidonuke and the community.

Zidonuke was immediately removed from staff, and the game and Forums were restored by August 15th, 2011. However, Zidonuke had released game data (such as usernames and passwords of all members) during the down time, and every registered user had to perform a password reset in order to be able to use PWO's services.
