Here is another tip, if you want to rise a Pokemon without priority moves, you still can face a gyarados, they will always use Hyper beam if they have it, let your parasect die, then select the pokemon you want to rise, and give the killing blow when gyarados recharge, enjoy :).

Well, each pokemon encounter is time consuming, if you have spent your whole day farming a pokemon, and manage to catch it, you still have to take in consideration the 6 pokemon IVs, the 25 different natures, and the abilities... lets do a funny thing... yay, i know i said funny u_u Say Absol has a 1% chance to appear, which i believe is probably way less than this if what you said above is true, but whatever... now, say we want a "decent" Absol not a perfect one, just a freakin "decent" one... As you may know, Absol is an average physical sweeper poke with 465 of base stats, so a decent Absol would be an "adamant" one with more or less the following IVs: HP: 28 ATK: 29 DEF: 21 SPATK: 02 SPDEF: 22 SPEED: 26 total: 128 (i did this number on purpose for the below maths) So on paper the above pokemon chance to be met is ((32 ^ 4) * 25) * 100) which is equal to one chance over 2,621,440,000. But that's not over, you cannot win the lottery, if you don't buy a ticket! Your ticket will be to beat the johto elite 4, then the karate master, and finally be under the premium membership. Once you've done all that, you must search for it, Absol cannot be encountered by chance while randomly walking over a bush on an important road such the 27 one... An average pokemon encouter last aproximatively 10 seconds (battling and searching for it), so this is gonna take 26,214,400,000 seconds for someone to maybe or maybe not find this pokemon. Simple fact: the oldest person who has ever lived on earth is Jeanne Calment who has lived 122 years, and 164 days, which is equal to 3,864,153,600 seconds if you take in consideration leap years. If i ever was looking for a "decent" Absol i would been probably dead before it has happened. If you think the same thing i do.. then you're right! The player is not alone on the server and everyone can search for it. So after 1,800 players (who have beaten the johto elite four and karate master) relaying themselves on the [glow=blue]legendary[/glow]task to [glow=red]"Catch the decent Absol"[/glow] for 14,563,556 secs or 168 days (implying no server crashes) then, we may or may not find this absol by this time. but hey, remember this is an average time, yep! also this calcul do not take in consideration the abilities factor. So yeah... we're talking about way too much chance here, true fact: i have a bigger chance by buying a lottery ticket, become a billionaire, bribe pokemon revolution online staff for $1,000,000 to give me a perfect Absol (not sure for this part tho :kiss: ). In that case i will still have enough money for the others 721 pokes, and some extra money to buy a large enough house and pool to make an epic pool party with the Pokemon Revolution Online Player Base & Staff lmao. My advice here is: buy a lottery ticket, and no longer waste your time with Absol, since you can access a way more effective physical sweeper with weavile, and if you want absol for your dex then contact me ingame, i'll trade it to you as long you trade it back to me. My point is: rare is something, but misplacing, or making a pokemon unrealistically rare, or even the combination of the two, can lead to an unused pokemon.. in this case it does not hurt much the PVP balance (which is important in an MMO), but in some others case it may.

Hey, This may help, or not? but since i'm playing PRO, i've noticed something strange... Sometime you will just not find the pokemon you you are looking for, no matter how hard you try, read my personal experiences until the end and you may understand. Like 3 weeks ago i was looking for a Spiritomb, i was on the pokemon tower premium area roaming for hours, after 6 hours searching a god damn Spiritomb i found none, but still I managed to catch 6 encountered Litwick. One or two days later (i dont remember exactly), i did another session of 4 hours, again no Spiritomb, but this time I catched 4-5 Duskull. I gave up for a week, then I did another session of 4-5 hours, and this time lucky me, i've found 4 Spiritombs, none interesting unfortunately, but at the mean time i was talking with another player, and by himself he told me that he found 5-6 Spiritomb, and he was looking for a Litwick which he hasn't found in 5 hours... Now, about Absol, i was not really searching for it, but i rose at least 7 pokes lvl 100 in the silver mt, and I was doing it on this place since the pokemons have the highest level, and it would gave me a chance to catch even a trash one for my dex... I've been here everyday since the past two weeks, sometime for more than 4 hours in a row and i only had once a sesssion of 2-3 hours where i was able to catch tow Absol, since then I never met an Absol again. To keep the things strange, the same thing happened at the same place with Larvitar, I was never crossing it untill someday I catched 5 in less than an hour, and two in a row with a third one separated by another poke (had not the chance to catch more, the server has crashed at some point). All the mentioned events above was under the right spawn hour morning/day/night of the given pokes. Maybe this is "exceptional circumstances" or in others words luck, but i don't believe in chance... i think this is made on purpose by the devs, or at least the usage of a poor pseudo random number generator (PRNG) algorithm with a time seed which in both case lead to the above behavior. In conclusion, if you are looking for a very rare pokemon, your best move would be to: 1. know someone who spend alot of time on the given spot, where the poke appear, then ask him/her to warn you when they began to meet the "poke". 2. hunt for sessions of 2 hours at least every day untill you find it then, farm the spot untill your are exhausted. But bare in mind, these are only assumption, so take it for what is it, and experience it yourself.
