  1. This is something i have been very vocal about for a while, but have never made a thread about it. So here it is I find this "mechanic" to be very unhealthy for the game, not only by how it makes pvp less fun, but it also encourages pvpers to not play multiple games in a row, or change their teams after every match to avoid getting either counter teamed/getting the same (bad) matchup again. The latter is especially annoying, its not a matter of just playing it better, some matchups are just polarizing to the point of *forcing you* to change teams. Changing teams after a match is NOT something thats very plausible in an MMO setting, this is especially true for newer players who have just finished their only team and are trying to get their foot in the door of the pvp scene. In some cases, this could be a "good thing" allowing you to "farm" a new player over and over for free rating and coins, this may be a "good" thing for one person, but the person on the receiving end is almost certainly not having fun. I would suspect some new players have given up on pvp solely because they queue up into the same ladder player over and over For someone like me, this mechanic is just HORRIBLE for content creation. I was trying to record a 45 minute video the other day and got the same person 4 times in a row. Obviously fighting the same person 4x in a row isnt something a lot of people would like to watch, so I always only include 1 battle. This 45 minute recording session turned into a 3 hour session of boring hell, and completely ruined my mood for the rest of the video. Now, since i bring this up a lot i hear these 2 arguments against changing this mechanic. First is usually "this is a thing in many other games too" I dont find this to be a good argument at all, mostly for the reasons i stated above. It encourages you to play a different team every game, which is not a viable way to get around this in an MMO setting like ours, hunting/buying/preparing full teams takes a long time, its not something you can do overnight. And "it would make queue times too long" I do not think this would have an impact on the ladder queue at all, again for the reason i stated above. The current system encourages you to only play few games per day, at peak hours to ensure you get the most diversity possible. And even if this does impact the pvp queue times, theres a very simple solution. Make finding the same person 2x in a row an optional setting. Also something i didnt even think of, this would help stop boosters. Thanks for reading, have a nice day, let me know your thoughts on this.

  5. Now with all 3 waves of Megastones there are a lot of new items in our inventory. The main tab is getting really crowded and it's hard to scroll through everything. I think the idea of eggs ingame is already dead and it would be nice to replace the Egg tab with Megastones, so we could have easy access to them.

  8. Hi everyone, Important topic of focus here being created. It is no surprise that many of us do not believe the games issues are being addressed or that they ever will be. Today I would like to reveal that I think I've found a solution. What if we combined Charizard and Pikachu to create a new pokemon? Charichu. Charichu can have the body of a Charizard and the face of a Pikachu. It will be colored yellow and the tail will now glow yellow instead of having a flame at the end of it. I'm still open to suggestions, however I feel like this could potentially bring some serious positive traffic to the game and open doors to combining new pokemon and rekindle an interest for many in PRO. This is just the tip of the iceberg and I still have many pokemon combinations lined up, but the overall consensus from many that I know is that this could be an excellent idea. Thoughts?

  10. +1, even after waiting for few minutes, the possibility of finding the same opponent is pretty high due the addition of adjustable rating bar.

  12. +1 it’s not as fun when u know their team and sets and they know urs- it completely eliminates the element of surprise. i would rather wait in the queue for a min or 2 longer than fight the same dude multiple times.

  13. Agreed, the amount of times i fought the same dude over 2 times in a row is not normal, it prevents you from playing at maximal capacity since you know for a fact that there is a high chance of getting C teamed...

  14. I fought this dude 4 times in a row and its was so boring. Ratings and coins are nice but some people forget pvp is for fun as well and fighting the same person twice or more in a row is like watching a movie twice consecutively which is just the boringest thing especially when they playing some annoying team.

  16. Yes, fighting the same players all the time is super boring. I also have that problem as a content creator, but as a player too. Yes, farming on noobs is cool, but I prefer a challenging system and I wouldn't mind waiting in queue if that means not fighting the same person again.

  17. Dear Mods. Can u add an "Unfinished Only" option in PokeDex? The option show you "Unseen", "UnCaught"(no pokeball icon) and "UnEvolved"(no star icon) Pokemons. It will help people save alot time in dex collecting. Thanks!

  18. Hello @Jianychta. Sorry for the inconvenience and late reply. In order to proceed the quest, you have to finished the quest given by Fisher Freddy, by submitting 3 Magikarp, 2 Finneon, 3 Goldeen, 1 Feebas and 1 Remoraid to him. Once you submitted all the Pokemon, the dialogue "Awesome! I think we are done. The population will regulate itself properly again." will shown, and you should be able to challenge Kimono Girl Tinea after that. Thank you for reporting and have a nice day. Saltedcoffee

  20. +1 for removing the egg tab -1 For replacing it with mega stones. You don't have to scroll through anything, because we have a search bar. I rather have a "favorite" tab, that allows you to place your favorite items in there.

  21. +1, the eggs tab will never be used But I think a Favorites Tab with the item we use often will be more useful than an only 'MegaStones Tab'
