There is a difference between making them hard to obtain, potentially through a hard quest or time/evo/data requirements, and having players pay around 50$ to get megas. Megas are a big part of the game that everyone wants to have access to, so making them unobtainable for most of the community is a very bad idea.

when clicking on any player who is in battle, he could have an option to observe the battle. this would be very good for things like: friends watching friendly battles small tournaments between players being possible for everyone to observe, without the need to live on discord unexpected players to watch is to learn more about pvp among others Like= +1

What a great thread! I am the guild leader of NoMercy. NoMercy has been a guild since April of 2017. I was very vocal in the past about how changes over the past few years devalued guilds and the competitive integrity of guild ladder. (1, 2, 3, 4) As others in this thread have expressed, I was also very excited about initially proposed idea of the Guild Island. What we got is different, so I will only focus on what is actually present instead of speculating the initially proposed. June is the first month I am getting to experience the Guild Island. I don't think it's that bad so far. I see nothing wrong with pushing it live with the bare concepts (spawns, tutors, tms) and adding features as they are coded (boss). I prefer to be optimistic and presume that is the plan. Everyone should keep in mind PRO is run off volunteers, not paid professionals. That said, the requirements to gain access to Guild Island have further exacerbated my concerns about guilds in PRO. It is absolutely true the social ecosystem of guilds have completely changed since the introduction of Guild Island. Immediately, we saw guilds start to merge by distancing themselves from players who did not want to or chose not to pvp. Even worse, the rule allowing players to pvp on two accounts also creates incentives for guilds to invite alt accounts with pvp rating in order to unlock Guild Island. Additionally, we see many players in two guilds to increase their odds of getting into guild island. For all guilds with aspirations to unlock guild island, the favoring of alts or veterans will continue to grow. A majority of the players left guildless during these merges or favor towards alt accounts are new players. I believe this to be very, very dangerous to the grow of PRO. Quick Solutions? Calculate guild rating based on the top 50 players within the guild. This would reduce the incentives of alts and necessity of filling your guild with veterans or pvpers. Allow access to the guild island to be purchasable each month by the guild leader. I can see a few options: A flat fee of 5m for the month, no matter your guilds placement in the ladder. If your guild finished in top 10, you can enter guild island for the month for a fee of 100k. Top 5, 50k. Top 3, free. ( fee per member) Eventually, I would like to see PRO implement a more sophisticated way of dealing with alt accounts. I understand the suggestion that follows potentially requires a lot, but I think it would dramatically improve the moderation of the game throughout many aspects. Every player must create a profile. You must then link your accounts to a profile. An account that is not linked to a profile will not be able to trade, pvp, etc. Only four accounts can be linked to a profile. Profiles will join guilds, so all your accounts will be in the guild of your choice. The account with the highest rating applies to your guild rating (not all four). Your accounts will not share pvp rating, but instead share the same "ELO" of the account with the highest rating. Example: Lets say "teerav" and "vikingman" are under my profile. "teerav" has 300 rating and "vikingman" has 1 rating. Assume I pvp with "vikingman" and the opponent has 400 rating. I win, "vikingman" will gain rating based an 1 rating winning against 400 rating. However, the opponent's rating change will be based on 400 losing to a 300. Its a big difficult to explain, but hopefully you (the reader) understands. This would mitigate "sniping" at the end of the season. And it would still allow players with pvp anxiety or veterans looking to test still use multiple accounts to pvp on, but it would remove a lot of the negative aspects effecting guilds described earlier in this post.

By this logic your first suggestion is also bad because some people don't hunt at all.... That being said, I am +1 for being huntable pieces(suggestion 1). I think this would be a fine way of adding them to the game. Although it makes alt hunting abit aids. Suggestion two while I think is a good idea is unrealistic, if we want a quality quest for each one they would have had to have been working on them for months. And I think I value a speedier rollout along with that cc time being spent on other projects. Other ways of releasing could be, spend a wq ticket to buy megastone of choice Digs Excavs(plz no) Pve shop PvP shop Bosses rewards Headbutts Or a combination of ideas, so like your suggestion of braking them into pieces, and then you can only get 1 part from pve 1 part from PvP 1 part from digs ect

Hi, Like any Pokemon game, travelling is a heavy part of the gameplay - even more in PRO since they is no outside flying. We therefore spend a lot of time entering and exiting Pokecenters in order to use the transportation system. Kanto and Johto are perfectly fine but is it possible to shorten the path to this system in Hoenn and Sinnoh? We have to walk all the way to the back of the building + talk to the guard so that we can use it, which is kinda long given we do this multiple times a day. I guess bringing the system closer to the entrance would require some mapping, but at the very least can we remove the guard once the quest is completed and have some stairs/door so that we don't have to open any dialog? Cheers!

Hello. As we know, Membership gives us an EXP bonus of 50%. Whereas, the EXP boost gives a bonus of 25%. Which is half of what's given by MS. The item EXP boost is made particularly to grant EXP boost but it's not really the case in MS; it has other benefits as well. So if EXP boost is particularly made for that, then its boost should be increased to at least 50%. 25% seems a bit less. I haven't really explained much you know my point. Thank you.

Back in the days the seed was kinda bad after server restart/crash and these cases happened frequently. I changed that and that shouldn't be happen anymore. That actually did not only affect wild battles back in the days. When we introduced the Reroll NPC players got the same stats right after server start.

STOP SUGGESTING AND WAIT FOR MORE INFORMATION ON HOW TO OBTAIN THE MEGA STONES FROM THE DEVELOPERS REEEEEEEEEEE I'm triggered lol. Just, for the love of god, please wait for information from Staff members.

Wild pokemon holding it might not be the best idea for the common ones like pidgeot and beedrill. I'd think the best option would either be quests (though that is more work), potential boss drops, or purchasable through pve and pvp coin shops. Think the last one prob makes the most sense.

8-10 cc is absolutely ridiculous. Yes the game should feel like a grind since it is an mmo, but that's not even a grind anymore, it's p2w at that point.

-1 Darkrais bulk, speed tier, spatk stat and movepool makes it a menace to the metagame. With megas around, it still has a stupidly good speed tier to go along with potential Dark Void or Hypnosis sets (or perhaps just straight up Nasty Plot). Weavile, who has the same speed tier, has 65/85/70 defensive base stats (BST). That servers are a reference to Darkrais 90/90/70 defensive BST. I think the movepool in combination with its base stats, it's ability and some sets being heavily reliant on RNG (looking at you Dark Void/Hypnosis) makes for an inherently uncompetitive Pokémon. It's essentially a Gengar on steroids, as it's better in EVERY stat, has a much more oppressive ability (in spite of being able to argue that Cursed Body is fairly uncompetitive, especially given how it works in PRO) and top notch move-pool to go along with it. Gengar is already one of the most used mons in the game, and even if Darkrai has a worse typing and slightly less spamable STAB move(s), it would not benefit the metagame to see it unbanned. Do note that Pursuit trapping Darkrai is not an efficient way of getting rid of it (like it would be Gengar).

-1 This is not a pve or pvp only game, and legendaries should be hard to earn. I actually thought they made the last trio's quest TOO easy. It's nice having something challenging and time consuming to work towards.

I am a pvp player and it took me 2 days to get from 80 to 300 evolutions, it's not hard at al I know many players that have done around the same time some even faster.

Posts like this one and the last rant I had to answer made me wish I didn't have eyes or enough functioning brain cells left to answer them and just try to ignore them. "PvE and PvP players should be treated equally" >Proceeds to suggest that Latios be locked behind top 10 in ladder, Mew 400+ Rating and Jirachi behind a 1000 WINS IN PvP and 100 hours into the ladder. I'm going to try and pretend this post is actually serious and not a joke. You say they need to be treated equally yet you're suggesting to block the access to legendaries into ONLY PvP players instead of giving a way so that BOTH PvE and PvP players can access them. The requirements are also absurd. Do you know how many wins is A THOUSAND WINS? It's not easy at all for newbies nor advanced players, nor some experienced players who still struggle in ladder. And top 10 in ladder? And 400 rating? Why am I even answering this post. It's as if some PvP players couldn't see anything aside from PvP and anything that is PvE and has a lot of hours of work behind scripting, mapping and putting it all together annoys them for no reason. They just want their legendaries spoonfed by a single encounter, you just throw a master ball and that's it. Congratulations, you killed the collecting part of the game! Which is the MAIN part because this is a POKEMON game, not a PvP simulator. These requirements DO NOT SUCK. I can ONLY understand that hour requirements suck because they're invisible walls that keep you from accessing pokemon, bosses or certain content in the game. However, if you are hunting for pokemon, you've EASILY acheived the needed hours for Mew, Celebi, Jirachi and others. The hours you invest in hunting PvP pokes make more than enough for these. Pokemon is a monster collecting game that can last hours, days, weeks, months, or years. It's the main objective of the game, exploring, finding new areas, capturing pokemon and completing sidequests with thousands of hours behind of work from anonymous staff who didn't spend a lot of sleepless nights just so that you only come and cry to forums because you can't instantly get all legendaries in the game. If you are so keen on making all legendaries be accessible only for PvP players, leave and go play a simulator like showdown. Nothing else needs to be said. Stop making these posts, they get worse every single rant that comes next.

Hey, I hope y'all are doing good these days. My suggestion is pretty simple: add a spectator mode in pvp. Of course the moveset/items etc should be hidden for the spectator so none of the pvpers get an advantage.

Greetings, @Raiser31 Sorry for the inconvenience. Unfortunately there is no way to recover the move for free, but there is an option, there is a npc calles move relearner that you can re-learn moves that you couldnt learn to the pokemon, in kanto you can find it in cerulean city and saffron city. I hope this have helped you. have a great day, Nezuko

Since the quest got changed, all previous quest progress from all players who had yet not accessed Sinnoh nor completed the quest was removed. You now have to start from the new one. You can check a guide here: https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/152381-url

Greninja's won't have their abilities changed.

I'll always +1 this, And for cinnabar pc underground

I understand there being a reward for top pvp guilds, I don't feel the entirety of guild island being their reward is the best use of the content though. Giving it a different entry requirement and then rewarding top guilds with a better version of the island or features on it could be a good way to give more sense of purpose to guilds across the board while still giving reason to push guild ladder. Some people are saying guild island isn't anything special and that we shouldn't make a big deal out of not having it, but at the time there is practically no content for guilds that aren't focused on pvp. Anything would be nice.

Hello Trenza, If this happens again in the future check out the thread; https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/129049-url/?do=findComment&comment=839116 I have moved the Gurdurr back to your account, can you confirm this when you log in. Have a nice day, SIncerely Hawluchaa

From what I remember, there's some extra dialogue, but it's just nothing of importance (story in PRO isn't really... complicated or deep that we can say). Next time you fight him on another playthrough in pro, keep a Graveler with Sturdy and Bulldoze in your team. You might be able to defeat him :)

-1, every single idea I see about this is worse than the one that came before. This only promotes paying massive amounts and would alienate the playerbase that can't afford donating (or those who live in countries where they are legally unable to donate) and would make the game a horrendous P2W experience. Please, think a bit before you make posts like this one.

Agree with this. It makes more sense. If an item with many other advantages, gives 50% exp boost, then an item that solely give exp boost should have bigger bonus to balance it. Maybe exp boost item should go up to 60% or 70% boost at the very least. That way, you choose to either get MS with all its other advantages but only 50% exp boost, or get EXP boost that gives higher exp boost but none of the other advantages. More balanced that way. As it is right now, if I have to pick only one of them, there's just no reason to pick EXP boost when I can pick MS.

congratulations you won

Thanks a lot, I was able to catch it now.

It literally takes only 15 days to get 3k points considering you're doing the first 6 sites each 22 hours, and on top of that, you can get items and potentially good pokemon like Sneasel or Heracross. I'm not sure why you made this post apart from the fact that you're selfish.

Hi Bambina. More hairstyles are planned to be added in the future, there will be an announcement once they are released. More clothes will be added in next updates as well.

First of all, legendary Pokemon aren't even pure PvP content. If this is unfair, then what about Guild Island? Isn't it unfair to PvE players? What about ladder tournaments and its exclusive rewards? Isn't it unfair to PvE players? They made all the three Pokemon of the Kami trio available and with an easy quest, so at least the form changing part should be a bit hard in my opinion. Also what PvP requirements do you think can be added lol. Coins? Rating? The question would he how many/how much and if it would be fair to the people who grinded hours in the past to get those legendary Pokemon.

- iriz, last week - this post pro community in a nutshell

You do know PRO is labeled as an MMO game right? Just like every MMO games it’s meant to be grindy. Also, if you make it so that the requirements becomes easier to reach or completely removed there would be no PVE aspect to the game at all, everyone would just finish the game, catch all legendaries and just start pvping and it will turn PRO into a pvp focused game and I don’t think the staffs goal is to make it a pvp focused game.

That's a pretty jaded view.. I'm pretty sure if you polled the players, pc storage would be extremely high on the vast majority of player's priority list. I'm sure we're all definitely siked about megas though, I personally didnt see anybody complaining about what we didn't get when the news broke. Seemed like an overwhelmingly positive reaction. No need to talk about us like we're a bunch of rabid animals who are impossible to please.

She finally did it!, Though I completely agree with your suggestion. (not because i'm in your guild)
