Guys, you are misunderstanding the whole situation. The topic of this thread is the Impossible combination of Abilities/moves, not the comparison with Smogon tier list. The topic of this thread is not about Pokemon that have been put in UBER tier in Gen 7, but the combination of moves and abilities that cannot be obtainable in the Pokemon games normally. I will make you an Example: In generation one THERE WERE NO ABILITIES. Machamp could learn the move Fissure in Generation 1, cause Fissure was a TM back in the days. Fissure TM has been removed in the next generations. With the PokeBank and Pokemon Red/blue/Yellow in virtual console on Nintendo 3DS, a Machamp from Pokemon Red/blue/Yellow can be transfered to the new games, but it will hold only his Hidden ability(it's a rule of these transfers). Now, in Gen7 Pokemon Games we can have a Machamp with fissure, but the only ability available for that Machamp is Steadfast. So, it's IMPOSSIBLE to find a Machamp No Guard + Fissure. Extend this thing to all pokemons that have the same problem and u get the topic of this thread. This is not to discuss tier lists, but to discuss about impossible combinations. Spend more than 2 minutes to read please.7 points

In my opinion every combination of ability-moves that's impossible to obtain in normal games should be banned as well here on PRO. We're not talking about metagames, but about game mechanics. Unaware CLefable + Softboiled isn't banned because it's "too strong" but because in an USUM game it's IMPOSSIBLE to have an Unaware Softboiled, you shouldn't confuse these things.6 points

I couldn’t say it clearer than that. It’s all about game mechanics. I’ m a huge fan of the original game from the beginning, I know by heart lots of things concerning move and abilities combinations and it’s really annoying when I do pvp ranked match to see for example a rotom wash with blizzard and the person arguing with me that he didn’t do anything wrong. I’m not a top 25 pvp player (max rating ever reached : 411) but I dont think it’s a good idea to let top 25 player decides alone since there are some of them who abused illegal combination like chansey + psywave in the past. To conclude, I think what belongs to game mechanics should be banned according to showdown and what belongs to pro meta specificities should be voted by everybody.4 points

Pokémon in PRO have the same stats, abilities and movepools than Gamefreak, why should we allow these illegal combinations? This is not about differentiating us from Smogon, this is about following the original games mechanics. I think we should keep illegal combinations banned.2 points

I don't feel every combination that isn't possible in the original games should be banned. Gamefreak make games where each of them is supposed to feel unique. They implement new stuff each generation, but some other stuff, particularly TMs and Move Tutors, don't make it back. They are not necessarily choices for balance, but rather choices because of limitations. As thus, Showdown bans these not because they're broken, but because they want to simulate the experience of specific generations. On the other hand, we're an MMORPG that aims to make everything available. We have TMs and Tutors that were only available in old generations, available to use right here in a 7th Generation environment. So why should we pretend that a specific Pokemon should be unable to learn something? If it's broken, then sure we should ban it, but if that combination ends up only being a niche, why should we ban it? Elemental gems are not available in Gen 7, because they were replaced by Z-crystals. Should we ban Elemental gems then? If yes, then why are we even making them available to obtain? The only situation a gem is better than a Z-crystal is for Acrobatics, and that's not really broken. Gen 8 will be unable to bring back all Pokemons. Although the choice of which Pokemon to keep was done with the apparent consideration of a better balanced PvP environment, the choice itself of not keeping the Pokemon in the files was made due to limitations that we don't have. Should we then ban half of the Pokemon when we upgrade to gen 8? That would be ridiculous, and ruin the MMORPG experience. So yeah, since we're not trying to imitate the original games to the letter, it makes more sense to allow everything, and only ban what proves to be broken. That, actually, shouldn't be possible even here. Rotom was designed to only be able to use the elemental move that matches its current form: when it loses its form, it also forgets that move. It's definitely something that shouldn't be allowed, and the NPC that changes Rotom's form should definitely make Rotom unable to bring other form moves eventually.2 points

Hey, I have some suggestions regarding the current PC-System. I am aware that this is low priority, but I am pretty sure that it is a really good and wanted QoL change. I saw similar posts, but those did not match entirely with the thoughts I had about the PC. If you like or dislike any of them, please leave a reply in this topic. 1. Naming Boxes. PvP-Box, PvE-Box, Shiny Box etc. I know it is possible to sort it like that with a bit of effort but the naming would make the whole sorting way more pleasant. 2. Adding and naming Categories One Box consists of 5 Rows which contain 3 Pokémon each. Adding a [-] Split function to split the Box in two Categories (which both can be named) containing 6 Pokémon each for a full team (12 per splitted box) would be great. This would be especially useful for entire PvP teams, but can be used to sort a lot of different things aswell. 3. Free movement in the box. Each Slot in every box should be usable for any Pokémon no matter how much we caught or if those are filled with Pokémon. This would allow us to use the last boxes for PvP-Teams (using the Split function), Shinys, Boss-Pokémon etc. whilst the boxes in the front will not be messed up by (or simply used for) catching new wild Pokémon. 4. Checking and mass-deleting Pokémon. Adding a simple checkbox to every Pokémon and being able to click a trashcan to release all of them together. This will prevent the time consuming and annoying process of releasing every single Pokémon slowly, especially after catching hundreds. 5. Mark favorites. Small, not needed change I thought about. Marking Pokémon with a little star and being able to only show those. This is for example useful to mark epic or just really good Pokémon when you caught hundreds of the same kind to differentiate those from the bad (and hopefully mass-delete the rest).

Hey there PvP players, due to PRO's constant updating, quests, availability of moves/tutors/tms and such we created unconsciously move/ability combinations that are not available in the original games and are invalid on Showdown. A few examples of that are Unaware Clefable with Soft-Boiled, Natural Cure/Serene Grace Chansey or Blissey with Psywave or Tailglow Phione. We have banned a few of these combinations but realized that things such as: Pikachu or Raichu with Surf & a pre-evolution move from Pichu or any egg move or its Hidden Ability, are banned from ranked play. This is due to an illegal move combination. [spoiler=List of banned moves in combination with Surf on Pikachu/Raichu] Egg moves/Breeding moves Wish Tickle Reversal Present Lucky Chant Flail Fake Out Endure Encore Electric Terrain Double Slap Disarming Voice Charge Bide Bestow Pre-Evolution moves Charm Sweet Kiss Nasty Plot Are super rare cases and super confusing for some players. There are a quite a few things like that in our game and currently there is no way for us to limit them from ranked play except banning them. Due to our poor handling in the past we created inconsistencies that we no longer want. We however are stuck on how we can fix those things, this is where we want to hear your guys opinion. There are currently two approaches I can think of: Ban everything, ban every combination that is not valid in a Gen7 OU Showdown team Let capable players vote for every single scenario, this way the community has a say in it as well. If you can think of a better way to handle it please let me know (PvP Council is not an option yet). Looking forward to some of your guys responses. Best Regards, Qeight1 point

That’s exactly what I’ve been trying to say, yet people keep saying “PRO should have a unique meta” and stuff, this is hopeless. Also how would the META be more diverse if the ones who are succeeding in this META are those who decide the changes? They have all the reasons to leave things as they are and none to actually give a proper opinion... It’s just a bad idea in my opinion and the fact that all those who supported it but one person based their arguments on META and tiers only further proves my point: people shouldn’t vote. The community clearly isn’t mature enough to read a short post and then cast a vote having all the information, how do you expect it to actually balance a game with so many variables? And all those who mention uncoded and broken stuff, the devs are working on it, sooner or later we’ll have everything Lastly, you might say this isn’t Pokémon, yet the game is literally named “Pokémon” Revolution Online I know it’s always fun to live in a world where the players make the balance calls, he’ll I’ve been in the LoL community since season 1, but the truth is making this kind of calls is hard and it has nothing to do with PvP success. The best game analysts are almost never the more successful players, and that’s true in every game.1 point

Let capable players vote for every single scenario, this way the community has a say in it as well. This idea is the best but how you choose the players ? Top 25 sorry Qeight, but this isn't an option. its not cause you are/were in this "top" that you are capable to take a good decision for pvp. How can a player give an advice if he can play only 20 pokemons ? I think a capable players can play around more than 60 pokemon lvl 100 ev train ( all different) and ready to pvp. A player who can build around 10-12 different team with different pokemon. All can go in ladder with 6 pokemon and this type of player could give his opinion for ban or not. Sorry i really can't agree with that. They are just going to destroy pvp.1 point

I couldn't have put this any better. I really enjoy PRO for the fact that it has its own style, because it really tutors to how an MMO should be. This isn't j u s t a main series game converted to be an MMO, it is its own game nearly, and it is amazing for that! It is more based around an economy and its player-base. 1.5 years and I still enjoy coming on to see familiar faces. It is a great pull-factor once you put yourself into the community.1 point

I don't think the situation will change much at all in 2-3 generations from now? In general, illegal movesets are caused by only a few things: -Having a regular ability with a move only learnable in generation 1 -Learning both a newer gen Egg Move and an older gen TM/Move Tutor move. -Having Hidden Ability and learning a move from before gen 5. In other words, it's mostly changes from the past that causes illegal movesets. In the future, they add a new move as level-up, TM or Move Tutor, it's going to work fine with any of the previously legal movesets, since all you need is to import said moveset and then add the move you want. Unless they decide to make a game unable to import from older generations, or make big changes to the stats of Pokemons, those cases will never be a problem. Only Egg moves create a problem, since the Pokemon needs to be created in the newer game, and thus can't benefit from moves only available in a previous generation. But again, same thing as before, if it ends up being too powerful, we just ban. There shouldn't be too many bad cases. The other possible problem would be with new mechanics. We will get Dynamaxing, which is certain to end up proving itself more useful with certain Pokemons than certain others. Those are definitely more likely to break the meta. Will those new mechanics cause certain illegal movesets to become too powerful? Maybe, maybe not, but a case-by-case ban still sounds more fitting. I'd be more worried about how we try to fit Dynamaxing along with Mega Evolution and Z-crystals, since they apparently won't make a return. And same with gen 9 and 10, we just don't know what new mechanics will change the game, and it's best to make a decision when we reach that point, rather than make decisions now in fear of what might not happen at all.1 point

Active players meaning Top25 finishes this year, in the past players could vote if they had a certain rank or were Top25 in any season, it makes no sense to let players vote who were Top25 sometime last year or even the year before that. This ensures that active players who can reach the Top ranks on the ladder. This may not seem like the "best players" however they are the significant better players.1 point

Changelog 07.07.2019 The Legendary Bird trio has been released! This is a permanent addition to PRO. Head to Shamouti Island after completing the main story of Pokemon Revolution (all regions) to start the quest. Assist Melody by collecting the Orbs that empower Lugia's Song to return balance to the island climate! This quest is meant to be endgame. As such, boss encounters can be difficult and have unexpected twists. Don't worry about trying again - they have no cooldown! All three of the legendary birds are catchable, though the requirements for each subsequent bird after the first will increase. Requirements include the following: Pokedex Caught Pokedex Evolved A strong baby Pokemon (Elekid | Magby | Smoochum) A quantity of elemental Gems [*]The first bird should be comparatively easy to obtain. The second bird should be relatively consistent with previous legendary quest difficulty. The last member of the trio will be quite difficult to catch! [*]This is not the Summer Event. Stay tuned for that!1 point

Why make a legendary quest with 15 dig item as requirments ? (90 for the 3) seem a bit nonsense x)1 point

It's always the same. The quests, despite python being now supported, still aren't in any way more interesting or developed ; if anything, the amount of work put into them is significantly lesser, leading to even worse stuff than what used to be done in the earlier days of the game with bigger restrictions. It's always the same requirements: regional champion (once again, why Sinnoh, for Kanto's legendaries?), required set evolution data (that will eventually get reduced down like all others end up being because every single time, people complain about it, yet every single time, it's thrown in unthinkingly as a requirement), show a freshly caught pokémon (every quest except Sinnoh's reporter), and give items. Mew's quest, that was done in 2014 or 2015, had those exact same types of requirements already, so this is a bland copy paste with tweaked values in the code. Then, once the quest actually starts, it's mostly going around the map for the sake of twisted satisfaction seeing people losing their patience. For instance, for Manaphy, it was: Go to Lilycove, Go to Eumi Island, Go to New Mauville, Go to Lilycove, Go to New Mauville, Go to Eumi Island. Along that, every single NPC in the Captain's ship had the very same bland, soulless, uninspired, one-line dialogue ; then, half of the NPCs who had more than that one line had typos in them (see my report here). -[/hr] Back in our days, we would make official announcements for events, like the 2017 Halloween's announcement, with clear mention of the legendary being only available during that time, as well as the requirements to do it, without giving away the full guide of every step of the quest. Of course, it's much less work to just say "surprise released" on Discord and get on with it, with no informations whatsoever, at all. -[/hr] Speaking of lazy: the bosses. As they get reworked, bosses go from Lvl 120 with 100 EVs in each stats, to: they have 400 EVs in each stat, which ends up giving even more stats than pokémon lvl 120; they hold items but the "choice *" held items, while effectively increasing their stats, do not block them into one offensive move; [*] you cannot use any items during the battle; [*] they still have several legendaries per team, though i can't seem to find if any have Megas; [*] some of the Bosses' pokémon have more than 4 moves; [*] they apparently had a random lineup to make more efficient teams based on their poké's order inefficient, but apparently that change got reversed at least. With that, they still have a 60% chance to reward you useless berries, 25% chance to reward you some PP Ups, and 15% chance to reward you a fully randomly generated non-shiny pokémon. And that is when they reward you something aside from the mere privilege to keep going through quests, like in this particular event's case. Quests in which they're lazily thrown in to give those a wrong difficulty level. -[/hr] In short, the suggestion is quite simple in its form, but evidently complicated in its implications: start thinking. You're supposed to do the job out of passion ; be passionate. A game is supposed to entertain ; be entertaining. If you can't be bothered; don't. But don't throw unpolished stuff to be done with it and cut all questions/suggestions about the matter, because that's how you get this.1 point
