Shinohara

Hi there @RoterShanks55 First of all thanks for having forwarded your idea/suggestion as it shows that were interested in dedicating time to try to help the game Unfortunately there is no way that we implement this kind of change on our game for two reasons: Pokemon Revolution Online is an MMO, and as any other MMO it is intended to be slightly harder than than normal games, in this case the official handheld pokemon one. We have no plans for what regard changing the chances to encounter a shiny in the wild and this is something we do not plan to change. The only situation where the chances to encounter as shiny are higher is during bosses, the shiny rock in the excavation and probably some other special place (not quite sure) and this won't change. Also, improving the chances will have a really negative impact on our economy. The game is aimed to be free to play, despite having a coin shop that however has items that are most likely almost all tradeable, and under no chance we want to force people to donate to get a membership in order get a shiny-encounter-boost. Yes, you can say that membership can be bought from other players, but it's good to mention two things Membership are not infinite, they pretty much comes from people who donate, buy them and then sell them. As of now, having a membership or not totally doesn't matter, a lot of people that have even 4000-6000 hours play without membership as it's really not a must, while it would be come one with such a change. I am sorry to disappoint you, but I hope you can understand our reasons. Have a wonderful day!

Hi there @Norex As an Admin, and on behalf of the whole staff, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience that you, and any other user experienced with this boss' rewards. It is surely stressful and uncomfortable to win against a boss in its hard mode and get something useless for you as reward. With this said, I have personally asked our Artists to work on making the Clothes for female as well, so it will be possible to wear them regardless of your gender. Unfortunately I cannot give you an eta regarding when they will come out, however this surely has an high priority right now, which potentially should make it come out with the incoming client release or the next one. Thanks a lot for your patience and for forwarding this issue to use, we really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day!

I have forwarded this to our content scripters so they can check it. As soon as this will be checked, this thread will be updated as well. Have a wonderful day!

What is the role of a Story Writer? In Pokemon Revolution Online, the role of a Story Writer is to shape the narrative aspect of the game by creating stories for main quests and story-based side quests. They will also have to write all dialogues that will support these quests. It is his responsibility to make the stories as interesting as possible while ensuring that all stories and characters remain faithful to the original lore. Furthermore, stories and characters must also be consistent with other events that may occur in the world of PRO. It is essential that a Story Writer possesses collaboration skills. This include being able to maintain proper communication with the other Content Staff Teams. A story writer must also possess dedication, creativity, and the ability to research the material needed to work. For example, if a quest would be based on a specific period, the story writer must be sure to research and gather information regarding that period in order to apply them later onto his work. Requirements Even if you don't meet the requirements, small exceptions (age included) may be made if the rest of your application is promising. (Mandatory) requirements must be met in order to apply. At least all the regions played Able to dedicate yourself to staff work and deliver efficiently. 18 or older. Lot of knowledge about Pokemon Lore (Mandatory) Can understand and speak English at an advanced/fluent level. (Mandatory) Advanced Writing Skill Level (Mandatory) What we look for in applicants Strong communication. Open-mindedness. A positive attitude. Good organisation skills. Creativity Able to work in a team. Can work under pressure. Can commit at least 1 hour per day to staff duties. Application The application form is below. Please fill it in and submit it as a new topic HERE(Click here) General Questions Story-Writer Role Questions You can do researches for the following questions, as researching the material needed to work is an important part of a Story Writer. 3. Who is the Pokemon that has triggered the oldest Mega Evolution in Pokemon's history, and what are the circumstances that made it possible? 4. What are the differences between the Silph Company and the Devon Corporation? 5. There was an old tower in Goldenrod City that no longer exists in the present. What was the purpose of this tower and what happened to it? 6. The Pokemon Mansion in Cinnabar Island is now abandoned. What are the events that caused it to be abandoned? 7. Why did Team Galactic try to steal Professor Rowan's Pokedex? Your application and results must remain confidential. We ask all applicants to keep the fact they have applied secret. Sharing your application status will result in the rejection of your application. Please be aware that all staff work is voluntary! This is not a career.

As we talked in-game and your issue has been solved, I will now proceed in locking the thread. I'm really happy to see that your issue has been solved. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Have a wonderful day !

Also, just to add as a clarification, the user already sold the pokemon 2 years ago and stopped playing 15+ months ago. Under no chance we would remove the pokemon from the one who bought it 2 years ago to give it to someone else. The thread had to be locked a long time ago, but the fact it was sold was probably not announced by the auction owner. Also, the auction itself is so old that doesn't even follow most of the current trade rules, which makes it obviously impossible for staff to enforce anything with the addition of course of the fact that a long time passed and it would be completely no sense to do that. Have a great day!

Hi there @AlwaysLate I just want to update you regarding your suggestion in order to not keep you unreplied. As for now you can have MEGAs as follower during the battle while megaevolved and in the first slot. For what regard doing it in general, we currently have no plans for that. This is something that has yet to be considered, but in case it will be added as a feature then we will make sure to announce it. Talking about mounts, I am pretty sure that our Artist team should have no problems on working on mega mounts in the future, however there is no eta as for when they could potentially be released, but as usual we will announce any new content update on our discord. Have a wonderful day !

Hi there everyone ! First of all I would like to clarify the fact that we appreciate that people dedicate their time to find new ideas to forward in order to make the game better, we truly do as it means that you truly care about the game. It is good to point out that not every idea is necessarily a good one and not every idea can be developed due to technical restraints. Another good point to make is that if the major part of the community agree on a specific idea, it doesn't mean as well that it's a good one or one that can improve the game somehow. To make an example, I am pretty sure that if I would say something like <<"Do you wants a free shiny mega charizard 6x31?">> then 85/90+% of the people would vote yes to have it. But would it make the game beetter? Absolutely not, it would do the total opposite and create problems. Unfortunately, this reroll idea is not actually something that we will ever implement in the game, in this exact way, as this would be pretty much unbalanced to make them so easy to be obtained by everyone. Do not misunderstand me, WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE IT TO EVERYONE (like it would be in this way), but we WE WANT TO GIVE THE CHANCE TO EVERYONE TO OBTAIN IT. These kind of reroll are sort of special, and exactly due to that we have decided to make them obtainable in a special way that doesn't include the standard PVP/PVE coins. We do in fact think that these kind of reroll should be earned, and we do have in fact thought about make them obtainable in the following ways: Ladder Tournament & Special Tournaments - Starting from the next tournament they will be available as a Prize for the Ladder Tournament (still thinking about how to distribute them). For PVPers in specific, Tournaments should be the correct way to obtain them as we want to create a competitive atmosphere around them. Special Events held during the Year They won't be tradeable and will be locked and usable only your account who won it (therefore cannot be transferred or used on any alt), within 30 days since it was obtained. Lowering the price of Reroll Ticket Regarding this, we currently do not have in plan to lower the price of them (specially so much as suggested) as it would pretty much have a negative impact on our economy, which is something we are hard working on it since we had reached a point where a single CC were costing like 200-210k, and that was honestly horrible. Despite that, in case we should make any change in the future, we'll make sure to announce it. -[/hr] Staff Reward (It's long, so read only if interested about staff rewards discussion) It is good to clarify in the first place that the amount of time needed to obtain a pokemon-staff reward is 6 months of good activity. I specified good activity for the simple reason that to receive these rewards not only you have to be a part of the staff, but your activity must meet specific requirements of activity/behaviour and not only. Unfortunately, it is really really hard to give a real idea of how much time a staff member work, since most of the time this is not really visible to everyone in the community. There are people that used to play on their players 4-5 hours per day, and after they joined staff they barely have time to play 1 hour (if lucky) per day or less, to give an idea. I will make the example of myself, that obtained around 650 hours of activity on my player (Keita) around Summer 2018 in 2-3 months and that now, after 17 months of staff activity have 680 hours of playtime, to give an example. I am making this example cause it's the easier for me, but the same goes for many many many other staff member that can confirm you that. You would say: "Ok, but doing that is your choice, isn't it?" Yes, taking this path is indeed our choice, but it is good to point out that if we, and the people that were here before us, would have not taken this path, then the game would still be in a really really raw state for what regard content (no regions, no quests, no legendaries, no cosmetics/mounts, etc) and at the same time the community would be pretty much destroyed by toxicity (which harm the game community) not being punished, economy being destroyed by botters and rmt, scamming cases not handled, etc. We don't get paid for our staff duties, but there are people that literally dedicate 6+ hours per day (some people also dedicate 10+ per day) into them just in order to improve the game and in general make sure the community is enjoying it. Also looking into the last year ladders, I can see that as well that there are some players having Pokemon being 3x31 (or 2x31, 1x30) and the rest 25+. They are regular players but their pokemon are really similar to the staff one. I also think that some pokemon benefit from more stats than others or that does not benefit from some of them at all. For example if a Chansey has 31 ATK or 2ATK, it changes absolutely nothing. The same goes for Breloom and SP ATK. Same goes for some legendary such as heatran that does not benefit from ATK at all. So I think it's better to focus on the MAIN STAT of a pokemon. With a quick search (literally few seconds) I can see that there are like 15+ Chansey (non staff or former staff) that have 30+ IV in HP/DEF/SPDEF. This mean that there are 10+ Chansey that have like 30 def, 30 hp, 30 spdef or higher (Correct nature/ability and usable in pvp). I am sure there are way more that with a deep research would come out (I am not a DEV so cannot run query). Should we ban them? No, we shouldn't. Same goes for legendaries, they are obviously more rare than normal Pokemon but I can assure that there are people having them with really realy high main stats (3x30 or similar). As someone pointed out before, the difference from a 3x30 or 3x31 is really minimal, same goes for a 3x28 and a 31x31. Like, mathematically speaking there is clearly a difference, but it's so small that it is really really hard to be perceived, and I can assure you that there are way more things that have an higher impact and that makes that difference even less important. Also, we are moving ourselves to add as PVP tournament prizes the possibility to reroll the stats of a legendary while locking a single stat. For example, you have a 31 DEF suicune, you lock that 31 DEF and reroll all the other stats. This is pretty much for pvp tournament only, since making it public would destroy the whole economy regarding reroll ticket and would be broken. As for Pokemon just released (like recent issue with Landorus iirc), I have developed a new policy where you cannot request the released pokemon in the first 15 days of its release, making it in this way more fair toward our community, for example giving them time to build their own team with the just released pokemon. Also, the amount of time (currently 15 days) is still to be properly discussed and can potentially be change in something higher (20-30 days), and this is something we might discuss in the future. I hope I was able to clarify this topic. I well know that this might be disappointing for you, but unfortunately giving the idea of how much staff work is really hard if you are not inside the staff yourself. I also invite you to read the posts made by the other staff and former staff in this thread as they also said really valid things. With this said, I will now lock the thread and wish you a wonderful day !

Hi there @Sephex First of all I would like to apologize for the delay experienced. The delay is caused by the fact that whenever players issue a request to change their name, our Game Master team has to make the proper investigation in order to make sure that the account is eligible for that by following one of our internal change-name policy. Due to that, and the fact we receive many requests, it might take a while to process each one of them. Anyway, I have personally review your account/request and accepted it, remember to use your new username to log in the game. Have a wonderful day !

Hi there @Algerie31 First of all I would like to state that we appreciate any sort of help and dedication toward thinking about how improve the game. However, unfortunately not everything can be done and every single idea is not necessarily a good one or possible to be realized. Pokemon Revolution is an MMO and as such it has been created with the intention to be harder than the original games. For example, this might be for the shiny rate different or for the fact of not being able to change the nature/ability of a normal pokemon outside of special events, etc. At the same time, our aim is to make the game enjoyable and comfortable for our community but without making the difficulty of the game too low, we do in fact try to offer as much challenges as possible to the players in order to entertain them, like it can be the world quest or bosses in general. Despite losing to a boss might be frustrating, it is good to point out that the bosses have been created in order to test the battle-level of the player and their ability by challenging them and reward them in case of victory. Losing to them should count as a defeat exactly because it symbolize that you have lost the challenge, and therefore it should count within the 20 bosses limit as a penalization. Also, whenever someone has a different opinion than yours, you should respect that for the pure fact that everyone and everyone's opinion are equal to each other and have the same value. Most of the time it's thanks to people disagreeing with each other that you can find the perfect middle-ground and the best possible idea. With this said, the suggestion is denied and I will proceed to lock the thread. Have a wonderful day !

Locked, as replied [goto=keita]HERE[/goto] https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/index.php?threads/an-other-fair-suggestion-regarding-the-limit-of-20-bosses-in-7-days.157789/post-864748 Denied.

[anchor=keita]-[/anchor] The ideaof having 3 bosses every 24 hours is simply bad, compared to the 20 every week, for the pure fact that most of the people cannot afford to play enough time during the day to do every daily thing/task [bosses with your idea, Exca, Doctor, Solaceon, Celadon when reworked, etc]. Having 20 bosses per week simply allow the players to distribute and use their own time as they wish and have a way better organization. If we would implement your idea, we would most likely have many people missing 3 bosses in some day, and it would lead them to have less than 20 bosses per week to do (which would be obviously way worse than the current system).

Locked as the user is back in the game.

Hi there @minto12 I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I would like to inform you that your Honedge has been successfully recovered and it should be in the last slots of your PC. Could you please check that? Please, in the future remember to use our RESTORE MEGATHREAD if you would like to request our help to recover one of your released Pokémon. Looking forward to your reply, have a wonderful day !

Hi there ! I am Shinohara, one of the Admin of PRO and here to represent the entire staff and Admin Team regarding this topic. I would like to start clarifying that this topic has been discussed different times within the PRO Staff Team, and it was decided to keep it like it is without banning them from PVP for the folowing reasons. It is good to clarify in the first place that the amount of time needed to obtain a pokemon-staff reward is 6 months of good activity. I specified good activity for the simple reason that to receive these rewards not only you have to be a part of the staff, but your activity must meet specific requirements of activity/behaviour and not only.

As the person in charge of handling rewards, this has never been a problem just for pure coincidence. However, I was able to recognize how much this was dangerous the same day that the pokemon was made obtainable and the relevant staff requested it, therefore almost immediately. Said staff member was able to use it only for few matches and after we were able to recognize how much that was a problem it was immediately blocked as that was clearly unfair toward our community. I have now developed a new policy where you cannot request the released pokemon in the first 15 days of its release, making it in this way more fair toward our community. Also, the amount of time (currently 15 days) is still to be properly discussed and can potentially be change in something higher (20-30 days), and this is something we are discussing. -[/hr] I hope I was able to clarify this topic.

Hello to all competitive PRO PvPers! This year, PRO Staff have decided to launch another Summer PvP Tournament, which is open to everyone who meets the requirements to sign up and wishes to participate. This is our 4th year hosting an annual PvP tournament! Are you ready to face off against the rest of your server to battle for bragging rights, and a unique reward to set you apart from the rest? A. The Tournament will consist of a double-elimination bracket. B. The bracket will be randomly seeded during a live-stream. C. Registration will begin now (23rd May 2020), and end on June 15, 2020, 23:59 GMT. D. Each round will last one week. The bracket draw will be streamed on June 17, 2020, and the first round will begin immediately. E. All matches prior to the Semifinals on both brackets will be best of 3. F. Semifinals, Winner's Finals, Losers' Finals, and Grand Finals will be best of 5. G. Should any circumstances necessitate changes to this format, Tournament Staff will give at least a week's notice before the tournament begins. H. Only one account per player may enter the tournament. I. Ghosting is forbidden. Players may seek assistance prior to matches, but may not confer with other players during the game or allow another player to play for them. J. The Pokemon pool of players will not be limited, so there is no need to register teams. A. All Ranked PvP Rules apply. B. In the event that any Ranked PvP Rules are changed while the tournament is in progress, the change takes effect immediately in this tournament as well. C. Should any moves, abilities, Pokemon, or items be coded between the start of the tournament and its end, those moves, abilities, Pokemon, or items may not be used. D. Players are not required to record matches, but it is recommended, as it may be impossible for staff to validate reports if they choose not to. E. Should any Ranked PvP Rule be broken, the offending player will forfeit the game. F. Should either player disconnect, the other player may either claim a game victory or allow a rematch at their discretion. G. Should the server crash during the game, a rematch is to be played with the same teams, unless a player demonstrates to Tournament Staff that they were in a position where they could not reasonably lose the game. A. Should any match fail to be completed, both players must submit evidence of activity to Tournament Staff. If Tournament Staff should decide that either player was not sufficiently active, that player shall be disqualified. If both (or neither) players were sufficiently active, the match will be decided by coin-flip. B. Any reports of participants breaking rules should be accompanied by as much evidence as possible, preferably video. Screenshots will reinforce your case, but may not be considered concrete proof. C. PRO Rules will continue to be enforced with no regard for the tournament. If an infraction would render a player unable to participate in a round, that player forfeits the round. D. Toxicity and despicable behavior will not be tolerated, both during matches as well as before and after. Sustained behavior of this sort may lead to disqualification. E. Match fixing is not tolerated. Players may not attempt to bribe or coerce other players to forfeit or intentionally play poorly. F.
