Really like the idea! This really focuses on the relationship between effort and reward. And it's definitely better than anything we currently have . +1

While i do want giratina wings since i was not an OG player, this feels really unfair towards older players. Maybe this is alot to ask for , but maybe make a different model or look to the new giratina wings, make them look slightly different no matter how small the change is. That would give both old and new giratina wings their own identity while keeping both players relatively satisfied , at least the OG players get to have something unique as they deserve.

I've changed my password a couple of times over the past month for personal reasons , and i've noticed that every time i do , the forum session does not get disconnected. I thought it might be related to the dashboard session so i logged out of that , but nope , no matter how many times i change my password and log out of the dashboard , the forum stays logged in. I would not say this is a major security flaw , but it does bring up some concerns. What if someone gets hacked or gets their account stolen , they change the password but the account thief would still be logged in on forums , which could lead to some trouble if the account thief decides to mess on forum with the stolen account . I know there is probably somewhere a "disconnect all devices" button on the dashboard but this could be easily missed or forgotten about. And i know the account owner can be easily proven innocent in case the thief messes around on forum due to the account thief having a different IP and checking the logs , but why not prevent this in the first place by disconnecting all devices upon changing the password? This is what i personally noticed , i could be wrong about this somehow so please correct me of i am.

This works fine for me on pc , you should maybe mention the platform you're playing on since i assume this problem is platform related.

Let's talk about the NEW Sinnoh Daily Reporter changes
Ghabra replied to Desumi's topic in Suggestions
Are you serious lmao? Do you really think a single soul will say yes to the changes? Solaceon has always been overpowered , yes its rng dependant but you literally have nothing to lose aside from logging in 2 minutes each day to talk o the reporter . You could say you have to hunt the pokes at the start , while that is true , that's an absolutely disgusting worthwhile exchange for the money you get out of solaceon , and there are even people doing solaceon service where they will catch all the required pokemon for you. The nerf to rewards might have been a bit too harsh, but the change that you have to show the reporter freshly caught pokes should have been the norm from the start -1 -
It could be as simple as getting to change the color of the trainer card to start with. We could add little trinkets or stamps just to decorate it . The 25 ladder players of each servers can maybe get their trainer cards simply colored silver / gold depending on the server to at least have some visible sign that they got ladder last season. Members of the top 3 guilds get to have a small icon above them , but since getting ladder is arguably harder than getting in one of the top 3 guilds , maybe ladder players deserve some kind of visible reward . Not saying it should be only pvp rewards , it could be pve rewards , quest rewards , event exclusive rewards like halloween or christmas themed trainer cards . Heck , thats even a new idea for new coin shop items . Players would not even mind if it's coin shop exclusives since they are technically cosmetics. I know the art probably team has their hands full right now , but this could be as simple as just a recolor , and i honestly think it would be a neat addition to the cosmetics system.

Do not get me wrong , i am 100% for changing the rerolling system , it's absolute rubbish. I was just pointing out that saying "making a change or buffing reroll tickets will not have next to no impact on their price , thus no impact on the economy" is a bit misleading in my opinion. Either way there really isn't any point in arguing any further on this since we're on the same page here . The rerolling system definitely needs a change

I hate to disagree here but rerolls , as any other item in the game are based on supply and demand. Reroll tickets are always in demand and that is why their price never plummeted. Yes their base price is based on their scarcity, but at worst, their price never drops below 700k which is 93% of the original price , and their price at their peak is around 800k which is 106% of the original price , this is why most people will hoard their reroll tickets until a new legendary drops . This shows that reroll tickets are always in demand. Let's take another item as an example which is masterballs, their base price is around 50k. Masterballs are only in demand when a new legendary drops. When they are , their price goes up to 60k. 55k and below is considered cheap. But outside of when a new legendary drops , their price is around 40k , and i've even seen people even drop to 35k and 30k . That's a 20% increase in price at their peak and a whopping 40% drop in price at their lowest. This goes to show how important supply and demand are in pro, and that's for a very common item like masterballs. I know comparing masterballs and reroll tickets might not be the best example here but this is the best comparison i came up with at the moment. If everyone can guarantee a decent / playable legendary at a fixed price , the demand will certainly decrease , just like with masterballs when no one needs them anymore . At first the prices might stay the same or increase a bit . But with time , a year or two from now, everyone will have usable legendaries and reroll tickets will not be as in demand anymore. This occurence will certainly lower their price and have a long term impact on the game economy . Again , i do not know if this effect will be a good or a positive one , we can only hope.

I agree on all these points , and ive always disliked the pro reroll system. Even though i hate being against the current , i do have some concerns about changing it because it's not as simple as buffing reroll tickets in some way. As much as i hate the rerolling system, i also believe that it kind of balances out the economy in it's own way . Yes rng is a [very nice woman] and spending more and more money on rerolls does not guarantee you a decent legendary . This mechanic is absolutely horrible. Rerolling legendaries is basically gambling , and gambling is addictive , people will never give up rerolling because of the gambling adrenaline rush . Gambling as a whole is such a predatory system , but that's another can of worms that i will not really get into . But reroll tickets are a currency at this point just like coin capsules. Making rerolling less rng dependant will certainly lower their value . I have never been the best at economy but i can certainly tell that dropping a currency's value by a huge margin will have a big impact on the economy. I do not know how it will change it , either in a positive or a negative way but it certainly will. This will be a huge change towards the game whether you're a pver or a pvper. The staff really should make an educated decision here because it will decide the future of the economy of pro. Just wanted to lay out these concerns , im not opposing to the idea at all though , +1 from me.

There is no point to proving yourself if what i said does not apply to you, there is no reason for you to feel targeted . That was targeted towards people spouting nonsense who have no idea what the gravity of their words mean.

You want to know why greninja was banned ? Aside from the [heck] ton of content in this thread that you choose to ignore , go read everything that was said by top ladder players who have gotten ladder consistently over years in the pvp council discord server ( i would be happy to provide the link https://discord.gg/sTh5Mqb3 ) . There are NUMEROUS THREADS on smogon , on youtube , on freaking pokecommunity on why greninja is banned . Sources are everywhere , all you need to do is go to this link :" www.google.com " , you click in the searchbar and you type "greninja ban" or "greninja ban smogon". Simple right? And yes , thoes who are laddering do get to decide for everyone .With all due respect , people who do not pvp , or people who are not experienced in pvp do not get to vote on the matters of pvp. I thought that was obvious enough. There's a reason why minors do not get to vote in elections. It's because they are not mature enough and do not understand enough to vote . This is the exact same case here , why do people who do not know anything about pvp get to decide for people who play for pvp? Want to be a grown up and get to vote on matters of pvp? Go get ladder. So instead of riling up like a bunch of kids and using cheap methods like starting a petition with a VERY low number of votes needed as a matter of fact (seeing that both servers combined average to about 1.5k players at any given time), Go get ladder. You think greninja does not deserve a ban and you want your voice to be heard? Then prove that your voice deserves to be heard and you guessed it , Go get ladder. Disclaimer : This is not directed towards @iammeetdpbecause he has proven himself and gotten ladder multiple times before , this is directed towards every godamn kid in here who keeps arguing nonsense while getting presented with facts and numbers.

Since the 6 pokemon you're using are called a "team", i thought they had to have synergy and cover each other's weaknesses while capitalizing on each other's strengths, which is why why greninja is so good because it can facilitate its teamates really well while being a threat on its own . But i guess i was wrong and this is not a valid argument.
-
The funny thing is , most of the pokemon you mentioned there are great greninja partners , greninja opens up the door for them to do their job . Again , you should not be staying on priority moves on greninja. And trying to predict greninja more often than not will end badly.

If you re not going to answer using any valid arguments or anything constructive ,and try to make fun of actual people having an actual discussion here, do not quote me please. Thank you

Do you know how many pokemon can learn spikes in XY/ORAS OU (which is the closest to our metagame currently? 3 Greninja , ferrothorn and skarmory , but let's say klefki like you said. 3 of thoes are EXTREMELY passive and it's very easy to come in on them and defog , while greninja on the other hand beats every single defogger like i previously mentioned. Dying to life orb recoil after actually using 10+ attack moves is viable way to get rid of it? I really hope you're joking . And if you re staying on greninja against possible priority or a pokemon that can take a hit and ohko it back , then you're using greninja wrong. And please stop comparing greninja to pokemon that do not do the same job it does. You do not compare a goalie to a midfielder in football. It just does not work like that.
