A Comprehensive Selling and Buying guide for Pokémon Revolution Online. Written by: Lysium and Forged. Introduction Greetings, Forged and I have decided to write this guide as a way of assisting new players in understanding the value of the Pokémon in their collection. We regularly get asked via in game message or discord, to price Pokémon. Although the art of “Price Checking” is mostly guess work there are many different things to consider when estimating the value of a given Pokémon. Below we have compiled a comprehensive list of things to consider when either selling or buying. Pricing is a combination of knowledge of the current PRO metagame, Smogon tier lists, PRO rarity tiers, and just how good is good enough to be competitive. Lastly a price check/estimation is a guess, a gut feeling. Prices can sway up to 50% based on who the buyer is and how desperate they are, or how competitive the market is for that Pokémon. *Please note that this guide is aimed at helping you identify valuable Pokémon for specific tips on selling and obtaining the best price please see the guide below. Selling Tips and Advice for PRO **If you have any comments or suggestions about this guide, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment below. Thanks 1. Rarity [spoiler=Rarity] [spoiler=Rarity] [spoiler=Rarity] [spoiler=Rarity]A rarity value or rating is given to a Pokémon based on how frequently they spawn during wild Pokémon encounters. The rating is a number scale from 1 meaning “abundant” or a very common spawn, all the way up to 10 “Unhuntable” meaning only obtainable through evolutions, boss rewards, fossils or some other means. It cannot be found through regular spawning mechanics. The value of poke increases significantly as the rarity of the poke increases. The rarity of a Pokémon can add significant value to it and should be one of the first things to consider when estimating the value. There are many helpful guides written on the forums about rarity and spawning mechanics. Including excavations sites, headbutt tree’s, fossils and boss rewards, please check there for further information on those spawning mechanics. Below is a link to the PRO wiki page with regard to the rarity of Pokémon in PRO. *Please note some of the rarity ratings on this website are outdated and not accurate. PRO Rarity Guide Example: In this situation even though both Pokémon are considered to be "Epic" and "PvP Ready" Blissey is by far the more valuable one simply because of it's rarity. 2. PRO Viability [spoiler=PRO Viability]Pro Viability is a difficult topic to articulate and many people can have a different opinion on the viability of a Pokémon. Essentially the more viable it is the greater the value. For example, While Ruby/Sapphire is infested with Shroomish, they are a fairly rare spawn in PRO, as well as being a competitively useful Pokémon (with the Technician ability) so the prices will be higher. Generally speaking, our advice is to look up on “Smogon” how competitive a Pokémon is based on the tier it is placed in. OU > UU > RU > NU > PU Most of the PRO metagame is between the Under Used (UU) tier and the Over Used (OU) tier. Tiers can change a lot and can be based on a variety of things such as team strategies, synergy etc. After determining what tier, a Pokémon is in you should research what competitive movesets are available to a given Pokémon and cross reference that with the currently available/legal move/abilities on PRO (some are either illegal or not-coded therefor not-legal in PvP). If a Pokémon is in the Over-used (OU) tier and has a viable/legal move set in PRO then the price will generally climb. *Note please see the following for a comprehensive list of viable Pokémon for the PRO metagame. With the release of Gen7 these viability rankings are likely to change significantly. PRO Viability list Gen6 **Note please see the link below for the current banned/illegal Pokémon, moves and move sets in PRO it is your responsibility to adhere to these rules. Any violation may result in your account being banned. Banned Moves PvP Banned Pokemon Example: In this situation again we compare Azumarill to another much rarer Blastoise with it's hidden ability interestingly Blastoise was the cheaper Pokémon because it's not very viable. 3. PvP Readiness [spoiler=PvP Readiness]The Value of a poke can increase based on it being PvP ready or not. Generally speaking, we add about 50k EV’s trained stat (510EVs) add up to 150k if EV trained and levelled. A Pokémon with proper IVs/Nature/Ability and Moveset is considered to be "PvP Ready" which can be seen as a convenience charge which can add another 100k on top of that. There are a few things that make a Pokémon “PvP Ready” this term is often thrown around a lot in the trade chat however it is not always used correctly. What makes a Pokémon PvP ready? · Trained: In order for a Pokémon to be “trained” it firstly needs to have its Ev’s administered correctly, often there can be a few different “spreads” for a given poke. Secondly a Poke should be fully evolved and at level 100. · Ability/Nature: In order for a Pokémon to be classed as “PvP ready” it should have the correct ability and a viable nature. For most poke there is only one competitive ability. Again Smogon is a good place to learn these. However, there are on occasions two viable abilities on a Pokémon. For example, a Venusaur can be bold with overgrow or modest with chlorophyll. They both constitute having a competitive nature and ability. *Note Pokémon that need their “Hidden ability” (HA) will be more valuable than Pokémon who do not require a HA. Venusaur is another good example of this. · IV/EV spread: A “PvP ready” Pokémon should have competitive Ev’s and IV’s. See below for more detail. *Note Unless you have a seriously “god” like Pokémon, you want to stay below the average prices of those "Tier 1" competitive Pokémon. While you may think the Pokémon is awesome, other people need to think so too or they'll pass over your listing. It's best to stay under the competitive prices of "Tier 1" Pokémon in order to sell quickly. If you are not in a rush to sell then you may wish to aim higher and hope for a desperate buyer. Example: In this example we compare two Clefables both of which have the correct ability and nature and both are almost "Epic" however one is considered to be "PvP Ready" and the other is not. In this situation it is reasonable to expect that the Pokémon that is "PvP Ready" could easily sell for an extra 200K. 4. Epic Status [spoiler=Epic Status]The Value of a Pokémon can increase significantly if it has “Epic” status. Most Top tier players will only use a Pokémon if it is Epic so what makes a Pokémon have “Epic” status. · Primary Stat: A Pokémon often has 2 sometimes 3 Primary stats and this will vary greatly depending on what role we want the poke to fill. A wall poke generally has 3 primary stats being Health/Defence/Sp.Defence. An offensive Poke Usually has 2 Primary stats Being Attack/Speed or Sp.Attack/Speed. For a Pokémon to be classed as “Epic” we need at least 25+ IV’s in each Primary stat. · Secondary Stat: The Stats that are not Primary stats are called secondary stats for a Poke to be classed as “Epic” it usually should have 20+ IV’s in each secondary stat. for an offense poke this includes defence/Health/Sp.Defence. For a wall poke this usually includes speed and either Attack or Sp.Attack. · Negative Stat: A negative stat is the one affected negatively by its nature, for example a bold poke has a negative stat in Attack usually this stat can be of any value to be classified as “Epic”. *Note this is only a guide and some Pokémon maybe require different elements to be classified as “Epic” like mixed attackers such as Nidoking. **Note please see the guide linked below for more detail on IV’s and EV’s PRO Bible: IV's, EV's, Nature, Abilities Example: In this Example we look at two Pokémon the first is what we would consider to be "Epic" note the Primary and secondary stats, The second at first glance appears to be "Epic" also however, on closer inspection we notice that it does not have the correct ability and therefore not considered to be "Epic". It is important to be very careful when buying Pokémon on the trade market because it can be very easy to overlook some details and you end up overpaying for something not very useful. 5. Market Viability [spoiler=Market Viability]The final thing to consider when estimating the price of a Pokémon is the market viability. For a variety of reasons sometimes the market can be "hot" or "cold" for not particular reason. Most recently Rotom has been a highly sought after Pokémon selling for up to 4+ Million. a few months ago an epic Rotom could have easily been purchased for under 500k. Obviously this has to do with the release of Rotom evolutions. However, it is still a good indication of how the market can be "hot" or "cold" on a particular Pokémon. Ideally it is best to sell a poke when it's “hot” and buy when it’s “cold” As the meta shift’s with the addition of a new generation of Pokémon more abilities and moves being coded into the game, prices are likely to vary significantly over the coming few weeks and months. It is a good idea to become familiar with these changes ahead of time to avoid making big mistakes. For example: Purchasing a Talonflame just before the introduction of Gen7. *Note at the end of the day it is your Pokémon and you have the final word on what you think it is worth. If you are not happy with the price, then simply don’t sell it or it could be something you regret down the line. Thanks for taking the time to read our guide. Peace <3

The resource has been percolating for a while and undergoing its formative development for a few months; now, with a higher-end hosting switchover finalized, I am ready to announce that PRO has its official wiki! Check out PRO's Official wiki! While PRO's network of services has had all the resources that are indispensable for an MMO—the game, forums, and website, namely—since its nascency, it has always missed one major auxiliary resource: an official wiki—a premier informational resource that's become concomitant enough to virtually every informable MMO in existence. Fan-made ones were operationalized; however, between their lack of officiality and the fact that they ran on lower-end wiki farms (a la wikia), they only garnered half-realized traction—certainly not enough to catalyze their development and maintenance to the point where they were sustainable resources. Forums guides have been informative in their own rights—and certainly have been and will continue to be seminal to the wiki's content development—but there is no glossing over the notion that they have been mostly stopgaps due to the lack of a wiki; that is because they simply were never designed to fulfill the information-sharing and -editing modalities that wikis do. With the integration of this new official resource, there are bound to be some knock-on changes; I'll try to address them all, below. What will happen to the forums-guide section? Although it will remain open for a while, we would enjoin most guide-creators and -editors to transpose their work onto the wiki. On the coattails of the wiki's addition, there is to be a paradigm shift with information-control; that means decentering from forums guides and focusing most of the informational work on the wiki. The only exceptions are the more subjective guides that the wiki can not document any consistently concordant information for. There are some topics that inherently subjectify the content on its guide, such as constructing a PvP-viable lineup; those would be better-suited for the forums than the wiki. PRO Wiki has its crosshairs specifically on objective content and information. Over time, the objective-data/-information sections of the Guides forums may be closed and only remain extant for archival purposes, but it will still remain editable for it; it is just disadvisable more than anything else, depending on the nature of the guide. Contributing to PRO Wiki If you are interested in contributing to it, you can request an account, here. Registration may eventually be deregulated into an openly registrable system; but until there are enough wiki-staff members available, registration will be done on a by-request basis in order to curtail potentially under-moderated vandalism early on. Since you will need to be at least slightly adroit in the wiki's mark-up languages and the template usages in order to substantially contribute, you are advised to reverse-engineer some of the pages just to acquaint yourself with the wiki syntax; you can do so by clicking on the "edit" or "view source" tab on any page. I have modularized various templates to enhance the editor-friendliness for the wiki-editing laymen that may wish to contribute; as such, while it may seem a bit daunting to use the wiki language initially, there generally is a smooth learning curve to traverse after dabbling into it. Do remember that as an official resource, you are liable for in-game punishments for potentially flagrant misdeeds done on the wiki. I will try to delineate a ruleset with due course; until then, there should be a tacit understanding of what is unacceptable, as there are some obvious vices that won't be tolerated—inappropriate content (as it comports to the in-game rules), blatant misinformation, and so forth. Perorational note If there are any questions, concerns, or feedback, this would be the optimal topic to start in. Remember that since the wiki is still only in its budding stage of development, there are many incompletions; that is a project for all of us to tackle collectively, as we avail from the wiki's hallmark of collaborative editability in working together on it. The fertile grounds are rich enough for the wiki to become PRO's best informational resource, and the seeds have been planted; it is up to us to cultivate them!

Hello! I don't really know what to say so I will make it simple: My name's Eleiseth, and I started playing on PRO three days ago. Just finished Kanto and started Johto by the way. (Edit: Finished Johto, starting Hoenn~) I don't know why I waited so long to post a thread about me here, maybe because I was lazy or shy.. I used to play on another MMO pokemon some months (years?) ago, but didn't really enjoy it that much. Then I heard about PRO three days ago when I got lost on YouTube again. So I decided to take a look and I liked it. I'm playing on Yellow server right now (I didn't know which one to pick, I was first looking for the most active one, so I picked the most recent one) but I don't have any guild (or friends ) yet. (still talking about the game). Edit: I joined the guild WhiteSyndicate! I'm 21 years old and started playing pokemon with Blue version on Gameboy COLOR.. and played every gen since then. (Except for gen3, don't really like it) My fav being 4th obviously (who doesn't love Sinnoh?). I'm playing for the story at the moment, and to discover what PRO is hiding.. (some funny things here and there.. nocturnal feather..) But I will focus on helping others and PVP once I'm done with quests and stuff. Also, English is not my native language, sorry for my mistakes. Oh, also I'm very friendly so if you have any questions (about the game or about me) if you need help or if you want to meet in game to play or anything, don't hesitate! I think I said everything I wanted.. maybe I forgot some things.. but that's who I am so it's fine. Hope to see some of you around and have a nice day!

Hello There! I'm here want to report about pvp battle bug! When I entered for pvp battle system detected an opponent for battle for me, his/her gaming ID name is Royzh92. Please take a look at those "SS" for more info. Thank you!

I think they just aren't high level enough try to level them to 80lv level haunter as higher level as you can and evo to gengar it's trade evo, you may ask your friends or staffs for help gengar moveset can be thunderbolt / shadowball / psychic (tm in saffron gym) / icy wind (a swimmer tutor in seafoam b4f) the reason why choosing shadowball rather than dark pulse, because both ghost and dark moves counter the same types (psychic and ghost) and poke will get x1.5 damage boost from using a move which is the same type with itself for example, water poke using water move ghost poke using ghost move, in this case haunter and shadowball you may get some rare candies from pokestop they are 2 days cooldown https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/37895-url some hidden rare candies https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/28476-url or 5k each buy from players from trade chat in game
