Hello. I am sorry, but there is a huge backup of 2FA requests and we are currently understaffed. Therefore, it can take a while for your request to be fulfilled. I understand you would like for it to be resolved quickly, however, that does not give you permission to spam threads. Stick to your main post here and do not create further posts. Doing so will lead to forum punishment. Take care.

Welcome back. Hope you enjoy the game all over again.

Hello, sorry for the delay. Recovering Pokémon given to an NPC takes a little more time than restoring when it's simply released, so this may take a bit. In the meantime, please release the Klefki you received.

Resolved in-game. This thread will now be locked. Feel free to create a new thread if you have another question or issue. Take care.

Sorry for the delay. Please tell me when you are able to be online so I can teleport you back to Olivine City.

As this was handled in the #request-chat on Discord, this thread will be locked. In the future, please only post on the #request chat or in the Restore Pokémon Megathread. Take care.

Hello @Lordnorth420. My apologies for the late response. Could you provide a screenshot of which client you're downloading from the Download page? Could you also provide a screenshot of the error you're receiving and of the PRO files folder on your device?

Hello, Please provide the link.

Sorry for the delay. The servers have been fine, so I am forced to assume it is an issue on your end. Please double-check your internet connection and/or your router. You can also try deleting all the files and re-installing them.

Hello @Dyggietv.My apologies for the delay. When receiving PvE Coins, it may take a few minutes for your Trainer Card to reflect the changes. This can quickly be amended by logging out and logging back in. That will force the Trainer Card to update and your correct PvE Coin balance should be on display. However, if you do desire to have the Pokémon back, we can do so but we will have to remove the coins you were given for it. If you would like to proceed, please give me more details on the Pokémon you gave so I can identify the correct one and restore it.

Hello, sorry for the delay. Please try re-entering the Goldenrod City Flower Shop. The needed NPC should be there now. Please reply confirming if the issue has been fixed or not.

Hello @Ladouillejr. My apologies for the late response. Could you provide screenshots of where you are? Have you tried using an escape rope to return to your last visited Pokecenter?

Hello @Runaldooo. Seems you traded a Brave Sceptile to the player itsmebuddy on the 30th of August, 2020. If you do not recognize this trade, please make a report in the Report Center with any evidence you may have.

Hello @Lonesomehuman. My apologies for the issues you're having. Can you provide a screenshot of the error or message you receive when trying to login?

Hello, We do not offer de-evolution services for such cases. These types of requests are only done in cases where a service provide evolved a clients Pokémon without their permission. I'm sure this is not the outcome you were hoping for, but there is nothing for me to do. I hope you can understand. Take care.

Hello all, This hint should be for the Goldenrod City Flower Shop. Can you please provide a screenshot of the flower shop and of each NPCs dialog?

Glad to see you managed to resolve the issue. I'll go ahead and close the thread since that is the case. Feel free to create a new thread if you have another question or issue. Take care.

Hello, Please provide a screenshot of your position. Please also describe how you are/how you got stuck. There are several methods to resolve these types of issues; teleporting players is only done when necessary.

Hello @Vangogsan. Can you tell me the name of your alt that you used to give the tickets with?

Hello @Foodax14. Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We value our community and their concerns. I would have loved it if you didn't use AI to generate most of this though. I will also say that these are your concerns. While you are a member of the community, there are many who do not share these concerns. I will be addressing you as an individual, not as a representative of the community. Regardless, I will try to address all your concerns in the order you've listed them. 1. Valentine's Event. While I can see why there was much frustration over the event's starting time, there was communication as to why the delays were happening. First off, the initial announcement that had a date in regard to Valentine's Day was on the 12th of November, 2024. In it, Walross gave an ETA for the Valentine's Day client update. It is very important to note that the client update and the event release are not the same thing. Many players believe the client update means the event will be released, but that is not the case. The client is within the power of Devs, while events are the responsibility of the Content Scripter team. As with any game, unexpected delays can happen, and we hope players can understand accept that. Moving on, the 31st of January, when the client update was intended to release, there was an announcement saying it would be delayed due to unforeseen issues. Then, on the 10th of February, another announcement on the status of the client. Finally, on the 20th of February, the last announcement in relation to the client before it's release. Then, the Valentine's Day client and event were released on the 22nd, which was a day later than the scheduled Friday. Let's tally it up. Nov 12th, Jan 31st, Feb 10th, Feb 16th, Feb 20th. That's more or less a week for each announcement. Personally, I find that to be plenty of communication. Perhaps it is not enough for you and others, but there was communication. 2. Party Exp. Share Traditionally, Party Exp. Share has not been a part of events. It is only in recent years, after the Exp. Rework that this has been activated during events. Additionally, there have been events in the past when the Party Exp. Share was not immediately available alongside the event release, such as Christmas 2023. During the 2023 Christmas event, the Party Exp. Share was not activated until the 22nd of December, 2023, despite the event beginning on the 1st of December, 2023. On top of that, the Valentine's Day event for 2024 did not feature the Party Exp. Share at all. All of this is to say that the Party Exp. Share is not always activated at the beginning of an event nor is it always activated for every event. I do understand it's very convenient to have it active, but it's not something unprecedented. 3. Litwick WQ and MS I believe we have some common ground on this one. However, I must point out that World Quests are somewhat end-game content, when players are starting to catch legendary Pokémon and completing their Pokédex. Therefore, it is no absurd to have some World Quests less accessible than others. This particular one saw the tasked Pokémon, Litwick, have two Membership-only spawns, while the non-Membership spawn is in Crater Town, which requires Kyurem Quest and Zekrom quest to be finished, in addition to the seen data for all of Gen 5 Pokémon. It certainly is a rather difficult one for newer players, but then again, World Quests aren't made for newer players. And for old players that didn't have that area unlocked or didn't have MS, perhaps it may serve as motivation to get those quests done and areas unlocked. Plus, as it was announced, there will be a second World Quest after this Litwick one. Perhaps this one will be more accessible, so we'll have to wait and see. Now, for the issue of Membership. There is zero content locked behind paywalls. Any free-to-play player can purchase Membership from another player without having to spend any real-life money. We do depend on players' donations to keep the servers running, but every player is able to get Membership without donating a dime. There is even the Battle Bot boss that will reward the player with a 15-day Membership after defeating it 3 consecutive times. Nothing is being gatekept through donations. It is the choice of the player whether they want to and can afford to donate, and we appreciate every one that is able to and does donate. 4. Decisions Honestly, I have no idea what you're referring to here. There have been so many updates lately that have made the game better and more fun. For example, PvP chests are a recent addition that has revitalized the PvP scene and brought on players that had never shown interest in PvP before. Another recent one is the update to Gen 9 mechanics, which is a huge step forward. Obviously, it was not all done at once, but Rome wasn't built in a day. All in all, I am struggling to understand the point you are making here without any clear examples of what you're describing. Final Thoughts At the end of the day, we strive to make an enjoyable game for the majority of our players, but it is impossible for us to please everyone. There will always be players who disagree with whatever direction we take or decision we make. Furthermore, players tend to prioritize their personal gain over the health and stability of the game, which is something I completely understand, but it can cloud judgement. Another point I'd like to bring up is the difference in how older players (I will classify 2020 and earlier as older players) view the game compared to relatively newer players (2021-present). Older players remember how the game used to be, full of bugs, constant crashes, missing key features that are now taken for granted. Those same old players understand how far the game has come and are more willing to understand when there are setbacks or delays to updates. Whereas newer players find it harder to appreciate these elements because it's what they know. Point being, older players tend to see the ups more often than not because they can remember the lows of days old. This doesn't mean newer players are incapable of doing the same, it's just harder. I hate to be that "back in my day" guy, but I think it's an important point to highlight. More importantly, Staff put an unbelievable amount of time, effort, and feelings into the game--both the Content and Moderation sides--often times with no real benefits. None of us get paid for the work we do; it is done purely out of love for the game. There's a lot of stress involved from just the day-to-day duties to the unkind words of some players. For some, it has become like a second job due to how much dedication they have. We want to provide a good, clean, and fun game to the players. Sometimes we get it wrong, we are only human after all. Ultimately, I think it's about perspective and respect, both ways. I hope I have addressed every question and concern you have. If I have missed one, please let me know.

As Letrix said all those years ago, this is not in the plans. As unfortunate as it may be, it’s just far too much work.

It’s a low priority issue as it has no impact on the gameplay and does not ruin anyone’s experience. I’ve had enough of your snarky comments. Any further insults towards Staff will be punished.
