Starlight

People still have problem with its catch rate, meanwhile it's been a week since the last time I saw a Beldum in Mineral Site. I couldn't even encounter one lol. (and I know it wasn't removed, at least until before the recent maintenance. Not sure now.)

I killed a Shiny Zigzagoon back during Ruby/Sapphire days, because I didn't know much about shiny yet at that time. And just today, I lost an Omanyte in Go, and I didn't even get to fight it. I wanted to click on it, but accidentally clicked on a gym instead, by the time I am back at the map it's already gone......

So apparently they changed the artifact maniac NPC in Historical Site with the recent maintenance. You can no longer trade the artifact pieces for pokedollar. The money option is now replaced with fossil. Fossils available are Root Fossil (300 pieces), Claw Fossil (300 pieces), Old Amber (400 pieces), Sail Fossil (500 pieces), and Jaw Fossil (500 pieces). You decide whether it's a fine change or something that just made sites even worse xD Personally the artifact pieces for money trade was the thing that made me fine with 90% artifact pieces on sites, but now I'm not so sure. On one hand, guaranteed Sail & Jaw Fossils are nice, but on the other hand, right now I still like the money trade better.......

Yeah, we have to wait until either they updated all Fairy-type's movepool, OR, give us the TM for Dazzling Gleam, whichever comes first. I personally think it will be the TM, since it seems it's easier for them to implement new TMs than updating Pokemon's movepool xD

There's already a warning from the System when they are about to put the server into maintenance or reboot it :Grin: The server is locked, and the warning is given 10 minutes and 5 minutes before the server goes down. And it's a warning that shows up on the middle of the screen, and won't go away unless you manually close it. So everyone should be able to see it. If there's no warning, then it's an unpredictable crash. No one can make a warning for something they cannot predict when it will happen, so.......

Re: I have a great suggestion (i think) <t>Yeah, it's the thing I want the most - the PC Box being updated so that you can separate your lv100s, syncs, and so on in their own box, which would also allow you to separate teams into their own box. Would be incredibly useful.</t>

Escape Rope can be used anywhere in PRO :) And making Fly sends you to the last city visited would be similar to Escape Rope but free, which doesn't help the economy.

Yes, you can use EV removal berries to remove EVs. And yeah, level 90+ is good, just make sure it already becomes a Venusaur by lv 98 at most. Then just use 2 rare candies for the last 2 level. Lv 98 is just to be safe, there have been cases where after a long grind people forgot to press Yes instead of No and ends up having an unevolved Pokemon at a level too high for it to evolve into its final stage. I recall seeing lv100 Charmeleon in Red server, and a retired player had a lv100 Shelgon. Another possible thing to happen is server crashing just when you are evolving it, when you log back in, its level remains increased but its evolution is not kept.

Volcanion isn't the last known anymore thanks to Gen 7 pokes. If anything, based on Magearna being likely to be Alola's mythical Pokemon, she should be the last in Alola's dex, or at least one of the last three.

wait wat We will see Crystal Onix event/quest eventually? :Crazy: Thank you :)

I think currently what we need the most is this: The ability to sort the entire PC based on pokedex number would be nice too, especially for those offering dex service or want to start offering dex service.

mine is Naughty because I want to use a Mixed set. Moves are Psychic, Aura Sphere, Fire Punch, and Dragon Claw.

hmm oh yeah, there's the VR. How about a new area accessed through an opening in Hoenn VR, only accessible after E4? Of course, the new area should be an area outside the cave, with different Pokemon instead of more Graveler/Golbat spam xD Or at least give us Boldore & Swoobat instead.

That's because none of those moves are Egg Moves for it. Draining Kiss is via level up, Dazzling Gleam and Flash Cannon are via TM, and Magnet Rise is via a tutor. Besides, what Klefki truly needs is Foul Play. And Swagger. Let the nightmare hell return xD

Eh, personally I think Level 55-60 should be fine considering by then your team should already be at least lv70. It also gives players an easy access to a good training spot before battling Rayquaza and Deoxys, if they still feel unsure about it.

Last time I went there, Sky Pillar isn't that attractive. Level too low, and there are unevolved Pokes. It feels more like Dragon's Den than Cerulean Cave. I think for Hoenn, upgrading Sky Pillar to contain lv55-65 pokes with no unevolved ones would be nice. Makes Pacifidlog Town has a use too, since the fastest way to reach Sky Pillar is from Pacifidlog.

Pick axe and Tree axe are for Rock Smash and Cut :) They're basically items that replaces the need to carry HM slaves with those moves. Not exactly needed for excavation site, there's just 1 rock in each site that needs Pick axe :Crazy:

Yeah, there's already a boat that transport players back and forth between Route 19 beach below Fuchsia, and Cinnabar :Grin: I think it costs 2500 per travel. I don't remember if there's any quest requirement to use it, though.

I think at one point they said the weaker base 600 legendaries (the legendary birds/beasts/golems, the Lati twins) will be catchable eventually. There was even a tease for legendary birds quest at one point, in the form of a small tower housing 3 orbs, not sure what happened to that. And we already have a quest for Legendary Beast Stones, there would be no point to that Stone quest if the Beasts cannot be caught eventually, as we fought them already during the quest, which gives their seen data. I doubt they'll allow us to catch Cresselia, Darkrai, and Deoxys though, they're the top 3 strongest base 600 Pokemon with strengths way beyond all the other base 600. Cresselia and Deoxys have crazy stat spread, while Darkrai has Dark Void + Bad Dreams.

Leveling in PRO is actually harder, due to the system using base exp yield as the main part of the equation for exp required to level up. Basically, there are two kinds of exp. a. amount of Exp gained from defeating a Pokemon, also known as base exp yield (for example, defeating a lv1 Bulbasaur in official games will always give your Pokemon 64 exp, because Bulbasaur's base exp yield is 64) b. amount of Exp required to level up in PRO, "a" is used to calculate "b", unlike in official games where the two are completely separate things. At the same time, this also means it is easier to level up unevolved Pokemon in PRO, while in the official games it doesn't matter as all stages have the same exp required to level up. This is because base exp yield is smaller for unevolved Pokemon, as a result, Pokemon in PRO takes less exp to level up when they are unevolved. Yeah, this is also one thing I don't really like. I usually play without sound now. Especially since sometimes, the BGM doesn't match the area at all.

In official games, the game will tell you that you can't catch more Pokemon until you've made some empty spots in your box. I think it's the same in here.

Charizard can learn Air Slash through move relearner, I think. As for the EV, it depends on the Charizard's stats. Something like a Jolly Zard with high Attack & Speed IV would obviously favor Atk & Speed EVs, while a Timid Zard with high Special Attack and Speed prefer SpAtk and Speed EVs. Charizard is a versatile Pokemon, it can even go both ways if the IVs are good for it, though EV spread for a Mixed set would obviously be more complex than the ones focusing on one offense stat.

From what I have seen people usually think what your country's main language is, or even whether you perfectly understand English or not, is actually irrelevant - as long as everyone can play the game from their own country, it's basically an international game. But this has nothing to do with the Fog topic, so I'll stop here.

Welcome to the game and the community :D Hope you enjoy your stay. If you need help, aside from asking in-game, you can try checking the Guides in this forum, they can be really helpful :D

Personally I think it's a bit weird to support low-end/older devices in battle by not adding 3D models, yet not support them outside battle by adding "disable fog" option. Especially since we spend more time outside battle than in it. At the same time, I'm confused about the varied results.....Red & Thor's older PC seems to be able to run the fog without any lag based on what they said, but multiple players cannot do the same. What's the difference?
