Why not make a seperate queue for UU? Forcing people to play UU might not be the healthiest thing.

Repeating the same point that has been said many times by now, but is nevertheless worth repeating: It is a great idea, especially since a considerable (albeit minority!) part of the playerbase would love to see some UU mons get the chance to shine, spicing up the game. At the same time, I am opposed to enforcing it the way you suggest, where everyone would have to play UU for a season and then switch back to OU. For one, forcing players who most likely had to spend a lot of time acquiring a solid OU team (hunting, buying ccs, w/e) to build an entirely new team will put a lot of players off the game. Secondly, only having a UU meta for one season at a time will not allow for a stable meta to be formed. By the time the meta becomes legible, we will have moved on to OU again. The reason why a lot of PRO players complain about the meta being stale (although we can argue it has been the "freshest" it has ever been and will change again with the new megas) is because the MMO aspect hampers creativity. If you have to grind and put in the hours to get a playable pokemon, you will try to go for the mons that gives you the most chances of a win. This was obvious a few seasons ago when we had the same boring core of conk + tank chomp + weavile etc being spammed to death. When playing Pokemon Showdown (and I know we hate this comparison, but it is a valid one) you are more encouraged to experiment, since you are not punished for it. You load up a mon, give it a try, if it fails, that's the end of that. In PRO this would mean hours of grinding and it would end in frustration if it does not work. All this to say: I think having a stale meta comes with the nature of the game. More than in any game, people want to win especially since you get tangible rewards for winning (coins, mounts, guild island etc.) I am not sure whether introducing a forced UU season fixes that issue, it just serves as a distraction from it. I'm not saying that PRO needs to change, we play PRO because it is PRO. Perhaps I am more so saying that a stale meta is, in part, to be expected. A separate queueing system for UU would be great, however, giving those who have the time and money to hunt UU mons an alternative to playing the same core over and over again in OU. Tldr: Sounds great, in practice probably not the best idea.

Pro: ++ More variety for PVP + Rising economy because certain Pokemon might be more valuable Con: - Some players might drop PVP for a whole month Maybe add a new Queue aside of OU (would've to be discussed in which way the ladder would work after) Greetings

i thinks the idea got merit and should be considered, but now is not the time. At the very least until all the mega is released and give pvp council time to get the roots down. My own opinion here is that some pokemon recently released have been handled poorly(etc sheer force landorus almost taking 2 months to get banned, aegishlash going unchecked for a month and now the recent bb gren drama) and stirred up alot of controversy, hence finally the formation of pvp council. Now barely any days have passed and the council have literly not even began discussing anything and this idea with huge implications and work-load for the council are put up. Again im fine with this idea and think it should seriously be looked into and discussed/tweaked, but again i do not think it should be put out this early.

Finally. I love this idea and i'm really waiting of this to restart the pvp. This can only add new player in pvp, lot of player are boring to see each time the same pokemon and the same team But i don't think make 2-3 month OU and 1 UU is fair. 1 month OU and 1 month UU is really better, otherway UU player like me can only do pvp 1 month each 4 months. Totally not fair. A good balance of that, will improve the trade economy. I think 4.5% is too High for a UU tiers. In that thier we should see new pokemon and not the same than in OU. Only pokemon under 1 or 1.5% should be allow to participate.

forcing players to play in UU meta seem really awkward so here is my suggestion. UU ladder will be open every 3 months as you said but there will be 2 separate queue for OU and UU for that month. I know PRO don't have enough players for 2 queue but when that only happens once every 3 months then it's definitely acceptable, not any queue will die technically.

There are a couple of items that I believe should be added to the recycler in Johto, as they are obtainable from digs/held items. First is Everstone which can be found in the digs in sinnoh, and Oval stone which is an item used for evolving other pokemon. I also highly doubt this would be added, but hey why not throw out leftovers also lol.

We are currently thinking about introducing a Ranked OU and UU tiers rotation. This would look like this: 2-3 months OU and 1 month UU based on the OU seasons. How would the UnderUsed tier work? It's pretty simple, UU bans: The same bans as OU, Drought and Drizzle, Pokemon with more than 4.52% usage, Example (list based on last 60 days): UUBL (UnderUsed Banlist) UUBL is the banlist for UU and is not a playable tier. UUBL will be discussed within the PvP Council. Give us your opinion about this below! Please explain your statements. The rotation time can be commented on.

Hi i sell my lax xmas: Bo start: 5m. Bo end: 48h after the start. Min bid raise: 500k.

Hello, i decided to sell this scizor... Cause i am in need for money... Looking for good offers only. Pm in game or discord. Discord : SalemZeroo#1114. Is not an auction just offers.

You Will gain this when you defeat her or battling rival the chance wil be 1

Adding a permanent UU queue is not possible with our current PvP player base. We would need to either reduce the current PvP reward by half or it's fairly easy to easily gain 1000+ PvP Coins for a few monthly. This would also split our already small PvP player base in two and makes it harder to find matches. I would only add a second ladder for random battles, that's it. And that won't be soon, so please do not suggest another second PvP tier, guys.

Hello guys, This Auction start the 4th October 06:51 PM GMT +1, for 24H. As no one bid in this time the auction was close, then other offer can't be count as a real offer. On this thread, there is any winner and @atakantttttt was allowed to sell his Pokemon by another way. But next time to avoid a misunderstanding, @atakantttttt please change the title and write [Auction close] or put an answer to your thread to close it. As auction end, i will close this thread. Have a nice day, Glaciate

people who say "no because you cant use freely all pokes" hahahaha wtf now you cant use any poke because chansey stall all there will be much more freedom in teams and more pokes to use with this sepereate queueu would b e good yea but maybe later

-1 I personally like the idea but the reason i see this not working too well is because 80% of everyone you see when you go into queue is using all of the top % of ou mons from pro, i feel like if you take away the ou from pvp then most of the people just wont have any of the pokes to use in the UU queues and it will be super dead all day, the reason i could see a whole seperate tier working better is because yes alot of people might not have as many uu mons as they do as ou on pro BUT having a serperate ranked option will still draw people to play it way more than they play unranked currently

No PU?? Joke xD wow that would be very nice addition!

I don't quite have enough to add to the convo, as it has mostly been said already. As much as I personally would love to play UU for a month on ranked, I can't see the rest of the community feeling the same. Genuinely would love to see a separate queue, because lets face it, unranked is dead and has been for years.

-1 from me. I'm not sure why you would want to force people to play UU. OU has always been by far the Playlist with the most traction. If you want to add UU, why don't you just removed the unused and dead "unrated" battle, and turn it into a UU ladder. That way, both sides can be happy. You will also be able to gage interest this way. If no one ques it, it just wasn't meant to be. I think forcing everyone to play UU will have a negative impact on the PVP state of PRO.This also seems like a very weird time to introduce this as we still have many missing pokemon (like keldeo) and 2 full waves of megas to be released still. People who hunt for and buy expensive mons don't want to watch them sit in their pc for a full month because we are forced to use garbage UU mons.

I don t like the ideea :v

We do not have enough PvP players for two queues.

Its a great idea! Pokemon that couldnt see so much popularity due to being overshadowed could finally be usefull in pvp.

Kyurem died because of Darkrais ability which deals damage to sleeping pokemon at the end of each turn. To get another chance on catching Kyurem you have to defeat the boss Nikola.

Hey, I do get your point but Houndoom is one of the oldest mounts out there. It was already worth less than other mounts (same as Arcanine and Lapras) cause old users were only able to get those back in the days. I am sure mounts such as Houndoom will rise in price again when Mega Houndoom mount will be released. Only old mounts that are in the Coin Shop had a chance to be obtained in the game via quests/events, so you don't need to worry.

Farewell everyone. I've played since 2016 , started on yellow met a lot of friends and idols most have gone now though their separate ways now. These recent weeks I've been thinking about how much time I spend playing this game, and the impact it has on the things I need to get done, Family/work, So I have decided to say farewell. Due to personal and in game reasons I haven't really been able to accomplish what i wanted to do. I may play once the zombie dc/servers are more stable and mega etc have been released but I'm not too sure. I've been apart of a lot of guilds and met a lot of people from yellow 2016-17 And silver 2017-2019 Team aqua fallenlion Team magma Iriztha Legacy Minho Chaos Cames shinynair and Wallross Ruk/Paradox Xrevo and Prehax Goodluck everyone :)

Hey there, I'm not able to see the image you linked in your post. You probably want to fix that to increase your chances to sell it here. Just as a hint! Best of luck tho!

specs Ash greninja and another mega pokemon like scizor in the same team become too strong, especially when not all 7th generation pokemons havent come in PRO yet. Only a few pokemons can counter ash greninja because of his 400+ sp attack with choice specs he gets crazy power and the balance is broken i think.
