Clauses and tiers; not yet. As i understand it these are intended to be implemented eventually (we do have an official tournament going on atm, and there are rules such as sleep cause and certain combination of moves and abilities banned). As for cross server battling, i can't say for sure, but in all likeliness this will be possible eventually. There are rumors that we will be able to switch between servers (with a delay between each time we can switch)

to that i'd say not yet :P

Are we allowed to know how the prizes will be distributed? i dont want to know what the rewards will be, but only how they will be distributed, if possible. Is being in the top 25 enough? or do higher ranks within the top 25 itself get better rewards than lower ones. Meaning, do ranks 1-10 get rewards better than ranks 11-25? a Yes or no here would suffice :|

eh.... move the abilities of your pokemon? i dont think i understand the question exactly, but if you mean "swapping" abilities of 2 pokemon or "picking" the ability you want, the answer is an easy no. You cant now, and never will be able to.

hmm thats an ok team so far, just a few suggestions. Get rapid spin on forretress / spikes on forretress. I know you have starmie with rapid spin, but forretress is far more bulky and thus more likely to be able to get a rapid spin off. If you really feel like starmie is enough, get spikes on forretress then (instead of explosion maybe). Starmie is fine, just a question of whether u want psychic/psyshock on it. Considering u have a weavile, i'd prolly swap out ice beam for one of them. Blissey really needs natural cure, but if your pressed for cash and poke then i guess you have no choice. I'd recommend tbolt over ice beam on blissey. Weavile move set - knock off / ice shard / ice punch / taunt For your remaining slots, try get a physical attacking sweeper like scizor/gyara/azumaril and a decent special attacker such as togekiss.

Roost is not bannable you can go check Singham's post Roost is not bannable in normal PVP ranking, but what about tournament ? I really need to know, please can an admin tell for sure if it's banned in tournament or not ? (Is it still "glitched move" because it doesn't works perfectly ?) If it isnt on ban list it can be used in tournament. That goes for all moves and abilities. Any exceptions woul be mentioned on the tournament main post (which is this).

The only reason you would want to use xatu in pvp would be because of magic bounce. Your third natu is actually quite decent, and i would recommend you use that.

Server cap used to be 500? or was it less, i dont remember :| Started from the bottom now we here.

Legendary tourney is getting delayed too :/ we will probably get bug fixes and move/ability updates patch with ranked season reset. But that also means that ppl will have to remake their teams for tourney, which means it will definitely get delayed....

you could get lightshot, just press prntscreen the moment the "Opponent pokemon used x move" line shows. It usually lingers for a couple of seconds until the move plays out. Come to think of it you dont even need lightshot to capture that moment, just press prntscrn button :|

lol nothing to worry about, just greedy seller tactics. tbh staff get too involved in trades imo... people can change their minds if they want, they shouldnt be banned or penalized for that. Blame the seller for not taking the offer when he had the chance.

Double battles have been planned for the future. Though i dont think we will see them anytime soon...

I dont think i've encountered any entirely sp def trained blissey's yet, always bold or at least max evs invested in def. A psyshock from my modest 252 ev, 31 iv togekiss doesnt do more than 30%... yea no stab but still, with 370+ sp atk thats sad :| I'm not saying curselax and blissey are unbeatable, but changes like choice items / encore / trick / destiny bond / etc would even out pvp a lot more and make a lot more pokemon viable. Oh i just remembered, one person i battled used blissey to tank my azumaril (adamant, huge power...) no belly drum or superpower though (blissey was faster so it just uses softboiled to heal up any dmg it took from aqua tail or play rough, which was around 50-60%). Kinda demoralizing when that happens..

Should be sometime this week, so dont see most of the top 15 battling right now...

PRO adopts certain aspects of the handhelds but is not limited by them. The same can be said for the generation PRO follows, it isnt boxed into one particular generation but has certain parts (by parts i mean pokemon/move mechanics/pokemon abilities/maps/etc) of them (mostly all of gen 1-3 and parts of 4-6). As for a plot, PRO has its own. Cant really say more here...

Its not all about ivs though. Yes they play a big role, but right nature and ability always comes first.

Come on staff, its about time a date was set for ladder reset every month...

Do they get boosted speed and boosted typing when used? no. Hencewhy only Drizzle + Swiftswim are banned. Chappy clarified for me, rain + swift swim is banned together because water poke with swift swim get the bonus speed as well as the dmg boost. As far as i know there are no fire types that get speed boost in sun or the same in sand.

Besides the visual bug, if drizzle and swift swim on the same team is not allowed, why is drought + chlorophyl and sandstorm + sand rush allowed? people were qqing about rain teams only because it beat the other weather teams. Without rain to stop the other two weathers theres an obvious inbalance...

Are you sure it was ranked? if your opponent disconnected you should have been rewarded points...

thats a very nice bulba. I'd suggest going hp/spatk on it though you could also run hp/def/spdef if your team requires something bulkier. giga drain / leach seed / synthesis / toxic is a decent move pool to use for either build.

Battling this guy and the battle comes to a point where he realizes he cant win. Stars to delay his moves till the very last second. https://prntscr.com/9zrzuy https://prntscr.com/9zs0dd Note the time of him making a move from the time i chose my move. The game would be so much better without toxic players like this.

This is an mmo. need i say more? i'd say go play the handhelds if you dont want trading but even those have it...

^ Zero and Kerza. Youre the ones who need to take a chill pill. Now, if you're not gonna contribute to the argument and just label us as "toxic" or "crying/fighting about prices", dont bother posting on my thread. i just wanted a debate, not both of you morons judging us and etc. such accusations. such finger pointing. much lock incoming.

Fair enough. I have no real issues with these items, if someone wants to pay for a little convenience who am i to judge. All im saying is dont get carried away (which by this statement doesnt seem to be happening. yet.) On a side note, why such a negative and defensive attitude all the time? everyone here only has the game's best interest at heart and besides, debate is good, its doesnt always have to be an argument....
