Lately, I have been working more and more, with both my first and second job. PRO was an amazing experience with amazing people together, not only was an amazing game, I have found amazing friends. I really do believe I wouldn't be able to find such good friends and with such wonderful people if I didn't have this experience. As time goes by, the time I have left is reduced to a minimum, sometimes I work 10 hours a day plus preparing myself for the next day, and to be honest I no longer have the mental strengh to endure being a staff member, not only that, I've started to notice my body having backlash from bad night sleep and such, being more often "under the weather". This decision was not taken easily, as I am aware and warn people that this would come sooner or later, unfortunatly. Now for people that will understand some parts, maybe things would go other way, maybe it would be better, but maybe it would be worse aswell. Anyways I am happy, I will probably start watching movies, series and playing other games again xD Not going to lie, I have tried multiple things, things that I wanted to do that never got through the sketch board or things you asked and I had to say no before, but unfortunatly, I couldn't manage, and I am trully sorry for not being able to do it, but sometimes, I just couldn't. I also know that I left some bad marks among some members, but welp, I did what I had to do, altho some of you might not agree and are even happy that this is my outcome, I standed in front of a multicrowded decision, but only my face and name was hurt, but then again, I think that was my job to do, and as long as justice was served and things were fair, I was happy, and the majority was aswell. I do not take grudges for my future with that, PRO was a learning lesson. Being the worse part of this text over, I am going to start talking about the great things, which was this freaking community, the game itself, everything, I literally don't thing I will be able to find this, besides league (which was my part-time once), I never had this much hours into a game, and I need to admit, I like to jump from game to game. I played it from my phone, while watching series, or just to talk with friends. And I met people here, that I will make what I can to bring them accross my life, the more I can. Well, and talking about gameplay, welp yeah, the game has its godam bosses crit hax flaws, but for god sake, beautiful art, 4 regions, and everything for free, what could I ask more for a freaking online game (#sellout #dabsonhaters #iactuallymeanwhatisaid). I might have enjoyed it more, as I got maybe more oportunities, but like a great man once said, this is the game I wouldn't stop playing until it dies (which should be far away in years). On top of all this I can also say that, it has been a wild ride, I joined basicly when there was a really short amoung of people, and at that time I just thought "I will help until the staff can carry on by itself again" but person after another, name after name, I was conected with several other interesting people I could not say bye anymore. Things kept happening, I never asked for a promotion and I was able to do so many things I dreamed PRO to have 2 years ago. We have created several medias (obv not just me there), got so tilted and so happy at the so many times for PRO stuff and thankfully, things worked well. Nowadays PRO has around x5 the amount of daily players as they used to have by this time last year, the prices in the market have gone down (#remember2mmsprices). Nonetheless, here is the list of things I've build together with my brothers and sisters in arms during my staffship: Duzens of apps recruited Discord and ingame moderation Several new guidelines for training Everything possible to do on forums Game editing Monthly events Social media launches Staff and game coordination Many more... Now welp, here goes, the dam submit botton which I've pressed several times, but this one is probably the hardest than clicking it for all the other times i've done it...and probably the happiest one for others :p THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING And a nice tune below :P

There are a lot of issues with Servers going down and parts of the webpage going down. This is of course inevitable since the game is still in development, but I worry you will lose player base if you are not clear in what is going on. For instance, if you are taking the servers down for maintenance let the player base know before hand, and give an estimate of how long it will be down (overshoot if needed, better than undershooting). If the servers are dropping due to unforeseen issues then add a section under server status where a mod can type an explanation (i.e. We are aware of the server status and are working on a solution, we will keep you notified) These notifications can be given on your webpage or through a Twitter/Facebook page. Its just really important for people to know that things are moving along, hence the loading bars and hourglass icons when things load. This is a great game, and I really love it, I just think some clarification/communication between staff and players involving maintenance and downtimes would be much appreciated by the player base. Keep up the great work, hope to play again soon. **I couldn't find a "search" option for these forums, that would be useful but I could just be missing it... below is a complaint I sent in to staff, and I'm posting here to see if there is a solution that I missed, or if more people would like this feature. *Edit (I found the Search function )

Hey guys! The servers are down and there is no ETA on when they will be up. All we have to dois just have patience and wait for them to be up. About the Clockspeed message, a moderator was testing someting, so we got the message. So we should not worry. In the words of Calahan:

Hello Shamac, I would like to recruit you as a mapper. Please contact me for further information. PS: I do not accept this, you'll have to come back!

«◘EV TRAINING HOTSPOTS◘» Hey there fellas, i'm starting up this Guide Thread in-order to help ya out in EV training fast Before you get started you may like to know what EVs actually are. EV stands for 'effort value'. 4 Evs will increase a pokemon stat by 1 point, the maximum amount of EVs in a stat is 255 but the recommended maximum is 252 so you can use the remainder points in another stat. If you want a full guide and explanation of what EVs are you should check somewhere else like bulbapedia. If you have never played pokemon competitively before and would like to learn more about sets and EV spreads then I would recommend checking out smogon. They have all you need and more on basic sets. :etc: This is a list of all the places to train EVs. It will tell you what pokemon will give what EVs and where to find them.If you see something wrong, let me know. :etc: Evs can be modified/multiplied using a "Macho Brace", it makes gained EV's x2 Note: The Timing, Rarity and Evs gained is mentioned. I've tried almost all the maps and checked the spawns to ensure which are can be classified as an EV Training Spot. Click on the If you like the topic :) So, lemme start off with the Ev's thingy :P Timing has been written in M/D/N (Morning/Daytime/Night) UPDATE: (Atk + Speed Combo) Attack EV Hoenn Johto Kanto #..................................................................................................# Speed EV Other[uPDATED] Hoenn Johto Kanto #..................................................................................................# Defense EV Other Hoenn Johto Kanto #..................................................................................................# Spatk EV Other Hoenn Johto Kanto #..................................................................................................# Health Points EV Hoenn Johto Kanto #..................................................................................................# Special Defense EV Hoenn Johto <B> Kanto Combo EV Sets HP and Spatk(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Speed and Spatk(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Speed and Atk(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Hp and Def(Mostly preferred for Chansey)(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Speed and Atk 2(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Speed and Spatk(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Atk and HP(Kanto) #..................................................................................................# Atk and Speed(Hoenn) #..................................................................................................# Speed and Spatk(Hoenn) #..................................................................................................# Def and HP(Hoenn) #..................................................................................................# Atk and Spd(Hoenn)

Individual Values (IVs for short and the RED numbers on your pokemons stats) are key to determining your Pokémon's stats. IVs are randomly assigned when you encounter any wild Pokémon. You cannot change a Pokémon's IVs once caught and there is no way to know the exact IVs in-game. IVs consist of six numbers corresponding to HP, Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense and Speed. Each range from 1-31 and the higher the number, the better your Pokémon's stat will be. Certain pokemon require certain stats, which means you can be more lenient with having lower IVs on certain stats! Here's an example, my friend Machamp So if we look at his Pokedex entry and hover over the little spider web looking thing like this: We can see that Machamp's highest base powers are in Attack (130) and HP (90). So we're looking for a Machop/Machoke/Machamp with IV's that are all above 15 or 20 but highest in Attack and HP Something like this!: So from this picture we can see that the machamp has 26 Attack and 23 HP, which is above 20 so it's acceptable! However you want to try to aim for 31 or as close as possible! :D Now you know all about IV's! Congratulations :3 So as Pokémon battle, in addition to gaining experience points they also obtain Effort Values (usually referred to as EVs), which are special hidden values in each stat (HP, Attack and so on). Each Pokémon you battle against gives off EVs in one or more stats. Generally, this relates to the Pokémon's strongest stat - for example that Machamp I showed you previously! We know Machamp needs high Attack and HP for his IV's and we'd apply the same with EV's for him too :D However EV's can go all the way up to a maximum of 252 per stat and the max total EVs a pokemon can have is 510! Which means you can have 2 stats at 252 with 6 EVs left over or you can spread them out ^^ Let's use our friend Machamp again: Now on this Machamp, I have EV'd Attack and mainly HP, I added a little bit of speed just to surprise people , just personal preference! :y: Every 4 EVs obtained in a particular stat equals one more point for that stat, by the time that Pokémon reaches level 100. At low levels you may not see all the points added straight away. If your Pokémon is at a high level you will see a lot of additional points going on to the appropriate stats at each level up. Now I know what you're asking! "But Tommyola2, how do I know what EVs certain pokemon give? D: " Well I got you on that buddy :D Here's a Fantastic website that'll help a lot! Rather than just being a personality, Natures actually affect the growth of a Pokémon. Each nature increases one of its stats by 10% and decreases one by 10% (by the time it reaches level 100). Five natures increase and decrease the same stat and therefore have no effect. In most cases it is preferable to have a nature that decreases either Attack or Special Attack for Pokémon whose strengths are the opposite type of attack. Machamp, for example, favors Physical moves, so it's best to use a nature that decreases its Special Attack since it won't be used. Here's a list of natures and how the affect a Pokémon. :) So now we all know the natures and what they do, we can then figure out which Pokémon needs which Nature. We'll use Machamp like the previous examples. So we look at the nature, this Machamp is Lonely but don't feel sorry for it! :P Looking back to our list of Natures, you'll see that Lonely means Machamp gets -Defense but +Attack! This is shown on the pokemon by the Red and Green stat names :] If you've been with me all the way so far, you'll know that because Machamp is lvl 100, his Nature will increase his Attack by 10% and Decrease his Defense by 10%! However Did you know that if Machamp as Adamant (-Special Attack, +Attack), he would be a lot better, because he's always going to be taking either Physical or Special Damage in battle, but he'll only be dealing Physical. Meaning Lonely will make him easier for other Physical Pokémon to hill him, which isn't something we want! So if Machamp was Adamant, he'd still have the same amount of Attack power but his Defense would be 10% better than it is now! Purely because he wouldn't be getting the -10% from lonely. Now, this will be different for every individual Pokémon. So remember, as I taught you before, check your Pokédex to see what your pokemons highest stats are, and then consider the Nature you need for it. Fantastic Tip! If you catch a Pokémon with the ability 'Synchronize' and you put it as your lead Pokémon, all Wild Pokémon will have a 50% chance of being the same Nature as the Synchronize ability Pokémon. This is a fantastic tool for hunting Pokémon because it lets you get the nature you want, 50% of the time! and I know, you're asking yourself "Okay that's great, but what Pokémon can have the ability Synchronize??" Don't worry about it, I'm here to help! Most players use Abra, Kadabra, Alakazam, Natu and Xatu for Synchronize because they're fairly common and easy to farm for the correct nature and Synchronize ability that you need. However there are more Pokémon that have Synchronize and if you want to find out who else has it -----> This link will help a lot! <----

I want to suggest a monthly pro newsletter edition that covers a wide array of issues and topics in a mature manner. Content wise this gives the creator of the newsletter a plethora of angles to go about presenting information. You could also introduce interviews of Pro players, tackle different ingame issues, highlighting a pokemon of the month such as tangrowth (for example) and explain its usefulness. There is really many ways to utilize a pdf newsletter. I think it would be fun.

does this mean im in? and turtles are dope lol

sad to see u go i hope u do come and play time to time and come back when ever u feel ready again

EDIT: SORRY I WAS ON SECOND PAGE To go to love island, you need to talk to the Love Sailor in Vermillon. It cost 5k I think. You'll need 120 Kanto caught-data entries and 38 evolved-data entries in your Pokedex to access Love Island.

Thanks for all your hard work. I wish you good fortune with whatevers next to come!

Hello guys and sorry for inconvenience. Yes the server where down but should be online again.

Unfortunaly server crashes can happen sometimes, we are sorry for that. In case of a server maintenance you wont be able to connect to the server and will get a ingame message in case you are logged in at this moment. Regards Xylos

Os servidores estão desligados e não há ETA quando eles estarão para cima. Tudo o que temos a fazer é ter paciência e esperar que eles estejam acordados. Sobre a mensagem Clockspeed, um moderador estava testando algo, então recebemos a mensagem. Então não devemos nos preocupar.

the server is up now

GO confidently in the DIRECTION of your DREAMS! but Rider, am very Lucky to have a bestie like you & To have something that makes saying Goodbye so hard!!

good luck!

You'll be missed man! Was looking forward to editting the video were you would sing (you can still do it, I won't stop u), you were always there for us and tried to help everyone! Wish you the best of luck in the future!

Farewell Shamac, I wish you all the best for the future.

Thank you for all you did for PRO Shamac. Take care! You will be missed...

Even though we've spoken only a few times, I am still in shock. You're such a genuine and nice person, I've done interviews and worked with developers for articles countless times, but I rarely seen someone who loved talking about his "job" so much. Cannot stress enough how thankful I am for the insane work you and the rest of the staff do for the game, and while I truly believe that real life comes first, I just hope someday you will come back. I'll make sure to send you the article on private as soon as it gets released. Best of luck mate.

It was a really great experience working with you buddy. PRO wouldn't get this far without you in the team. Thank you for everything you've taught me, also thank you for caring about me and the other staff members. You've always been one of my role model in the staff team. We've been through bad and good times, but for me they've became great memories altogether now. Good luck in life and take your time to relax, don't get too stressed out. I hope you will eventually come back one day once things got settled in your life.

I wish you all the best ! goodluck :)

You will be missed by the Community Q A Q

life is short,so keep following your dreams and wish good luck to your another journey thank your for everything

basicly what it is, is that many like using big words... but many of the cases they do no actions afterwards. As long you know that you are doing it right, then thats all there matters, its not worth thinking to much about people trying to repport you for stuff you didnt do

Take care Rider, thanks for everything you've done for this game. Your presence on staff chat will surely be missed., (who do I make fun of being short now?)

Thank you for all the effort you have put into it..... U have really made the best mmo I've played until now... Wishing u all the best in ur future...

Thanks for all the hard work you have done and who knows, we might see you back again, but for now... go take some well deserved time for yourself

Farewell Shamac

Cya bro farewell <3

It's sad to see you leave. You will be missed by many I imagine and thank you for the time and effort you spent in pro. Farewell <3

Farewell ! Goodluck Whatever you did in real life !

Thank you for the works and time, I mean it, really appreciate

I've been playing through PRO for the past 2 years and really admire how far the game has reached... Ever since Hoenn released the game had to be the best Pokemon Online MMORPG out there! And afterer Sinnoh release I'm more than excited for Unova to come out. Is the Unova region being worked on as we speak? Or will it be a thing in the coming future? Would love to hear updates regarding this.. Cheers!

Best of luck for your future, this time i guess the most cute thing i can do for you is to spare a wall of text, for once... Love you Lil Otter

Oh crap I forgot whatsapp when I changed phone! CRAP CRAP CRAP! Also I don't tend to leave the totallity, I will play the game aswelll, and will give you my feedback if you guys want. And yeah, I love you man, you were and are one of my best friends! Now we can play together and hunt together more often even :D

Man, no words. You were my buddy from the start. Gave me the opportunity to come back and reached out your hand whenever I needed something. I know you hated the fact that I sent you PM's all the time, but I'm very glad you were there to give me the answer I needed in the end. I hope to still hear from you a lot my friend, don't be afraid to ask me to join you for League games whenever!
