To start off i would say that pvp coincil is a bad idea, in pokeone it clearly failed and in smoogon they have the best players in the world to do it (and even then, bans are still very discussed) On pro it would only lead to more complaining, when the problem with balance in pvp is due to bugs and some key pokemons missing. That said if you really have to make a pvp coincil things have to be done correctly. 1. How are council members picked? How long can they stay on the council? As much as they want to, only those who are able shuld be doing it. What are the requirments? Some people in this game only want a position that puts them above others, this people will do whatever is possible to gain that position, so it s a must for every memeber of the council to proove their knowlage about pvp.Only people that does good in pro turneys (winning and reaching semi-finals) and in ladder (reaching 80% with atleast 200 games played) shuld be allowed in pvp coincil. Should they be able to participate in ranked PvP while being on the council? Yes, doing pvp s the only way to have knowlage. How would the split between Silver and Gold members look like? This is irrelevant, this can work only if the most competent people are picked. 2.How are suspect tests decided? How does the council decide what pokemon to send into a supect testing phase? Not too many suspect tests have to take place, a pokemon is suspectable when it s uncompetitive, that doesn t mean a pokemon can' t be overpowered.A pokemon becomes uncompetitive when it has high usage, it has from very few to no awnsers according to their set, and requires from little to no prediction.Before sending a poke into testing council has to discuss about it s revelance in the meta, about it s sets and counters, only if the poke has the basis to be suspected the council will vote to start the suspect. How would a suspect test look like? People will be called to do atleast 50 wins with 80% win ratio in pro in order to express their opinion and the discussion would be opened in a thread on forums. Who gets to vote after the suspect is over? Players that meet the rquirments would. 3.What would council members need from staff in particular to make it successful? How much influence does staff have over the council? Council shuld be part of staff. When can staff interfere in the decision making process? Whenever the criteria to suspect a poke arn t met. When banning a pokemon in pvp it s important to consider the impact it has on the meta and how much it limits teambuilding.

Thanks alot for the guide.

ING: ikonos123 Current rating: 489 Season you were on ladder: september 2018 Some things that need to be said before: - the way the opening post is presented is factious - some players kept breaking the rule - votes need to be explained in order to be considered Vote: KEEP THE RULE Reasons: - alt accounts are used to boost guild in ladder - alt accounts are used farm pvp coins - alt accounts are used to snipe higher rating players in order to help main accounts on ladder - alt accounts are used to trade pvp wins with other players As you can see alt accounts can be easely abused ruining pvp experience for both new and veteran players, they only benefit bad players over good ones While some of these methods are easy to trace(such as double account in ladder or massive guild boosting) some other are harder to notice (such as sniping) but it s meaningless to say the rule it s hard to apply, it needs to be there. Those who love this game vote to keep it, those doing their own interest ask to change it.

I buy for 1.5m insta.

The black medallion thing is a good idea, as a pvp player I believe rare h.a. are too hard to find, when considering pvp. Still 40 coins for 72h is a very unreasonable price compared to ms. I suggest to set it on 50coins for 7 days. Non customizable ivs are what makes this game great and the coin capsule completly ruins this system. Please Shane, only implement black medallion if you have to, but leave iv system the way it is.

Many of us put years of effort in farming just to be rewarded once or twice with that unique poke noone else has, this new system will just ruin all your unique pokes and bring a totally p2w aspect to pvp. I personally took almoast one year to get the pokes of my team farming and cheking trade chat for countless hours just to find the pokes i needed. With the new system people wold be forced to invest coins on each poke for pvp, just to make it viable.

Good bye yoga and good luck. I wish you will be back some day.
