The pokemons were restored and will be seen in the last spot of each of your boxes ^^ Enjoy :)

The voting speaks for itself, the combination of Unaware+Softboiled+Clefable and Gliscor+Defog (due to following the same standards/reasoning) are now forbidden from ranked PvP. I am aware that Gliscor+Defog weren't properly voted to be banned but due to following the same reasons it has to be banned. If you do not wish for that to happen, suggest otherwise and present reasons why. Thank you everyone for voting!

Your case was quite a journy to deal with, I have restored all shinies, form pokemons (might be clones, christmas or pinkan forms) and all pokemon above level 50. They will be scatered accross your box, so using the search mechanism will be the best bet, at least in the beggining. They will be around your box. Please have a check. Please do not make this again, and hope you have a great week. Enjoy ^^

- [glow=lightgreen]Merged in the proper topic[/glow] - The pokemons you resquested were restored to the last slot of your box. Enjoy and have a great week ^^

Unlocked as requested.

The rest of this conversation will continue in this thread: https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=98&t=78318 With this being said I will lock this thread as I am redirecting to that thread, which contains a pool.

In light of the latest implemention of the ability Unaware, that created a question, should we block the usage of a pokemon with that ability and able to use Softboiled (The notorious example is: Clefable) This combo is not avaiable in the original games, as you can see by investigating the most used page of competitive pokemon battles, Smogon. Therefore, lets do this in a healthy and organized way and vote in this topic. Towards the Gliscor/Defog case, I will make a new poll towards that case, to have 2 discussions with each topic. Mentions: Latest mention of this new rule. [glow=blue]This pool is to be taken seriously, it will be closed, either once it reaches vast majority above 100 votes or at maximum this next friday (29th).[/glow]

I have restored all of your pokemons, check the last slot of your box. Enjoy.

Moved the pokemosn to the last spot in your box. Enjoy. thanks <3 Yes, that mouse, change it or fix it ^^. The Emboar is on the last spot of your box.

Try now, don't know why but it was re-deleted.

Moved the pokemosn to the last spot in your box. Enjoy.

If you possess evidence that the pokemons belong to you and they were ONLY BORROWED and you want them back, make a report in Report Center - Red Server in order to get assistance recovering them. Just trying to get pokemons from a banned user out of nowhere for your own profit might only get you punished for abuse. Furthermore, like the rule states, let's not post things regarding bans here. With this being said, if you possess legitimate evidence to claim pokemons from a banned user account, make a report and we will take care of that. [glow=purple]Locked[/glow]

Hi, how many days has our opponent to go online and battle ? I think this tournament will take time... He has at maximum until Tuesday, I put a bit of tolerance this time since not everyone is aware of the new double update/week thing.

This is more certainly a missunderstanding because we don't release pokemons from players. Furthermore, in order to restore pokemons I need more information, such as the names of the pokemons. But can you assure me you have logged into the right server firstly?

I am sorry to ask, but do you have a pokemon card image with the stats of the pokemons that were deleted? Unfortunatly the ID aren't linked in the database anymore, but if you possess a screenshot with the stats I might be able to track it down and restore.

The Miltank actually was not deleted, it is with another user. I pm'd you the trade details.

All pokemon were restored and are on the last slot of your box.

The Mew was deleted, but as I am writing this message, I restored him and its now on the latest spot in your box. Have fun playing ^^ [glow=purple]Locked as Solved[/glow]

All brackets have been updated! Also, every Monday/Tuesday and Thursday/Friday I will close rounds, there is no limit of maximum rounds to play aswell, as Sinnoh was launched and I am back, the tournament is the main priority to care now, and thus all games can be played ^^

My apologies for the delay on the brackets. I have been netless and I am the only one with access to the brackets, hence the delay, in the next few minutes you should seen the brackets updated.

Yes I am down to making Legendary Re-Rolls to the game for and only for legendaries. But I am against adding it as PvP only, and because not all players play PvP, and from those that play, not all are good at it. We have cases of people that refuse to play PvP, because they either dislike or just can't get into it with their current motivation. We all have legendaries that are under whats acceptable, but restricting this sort of things, that is a overall wanted thing to just PvP would create a bigger fissure than it should and make player lifetime short for those who don't enjoy. My suggestion: - Make it via pokedollars in a randomizer - Make it via pokedollars or PvP coins in a randomizer (2 ways of payment) - Make it via pokedollars or PvP coins or Huntable mon with +150 IVs after u talk to the NPC in a randomizer - Apart of a slow pace quest, which would not beneficiate either the hunters nor the pvpers (considering in this case, the extremes, either one person that permanent hunts, and other that permanent pvps) Restriction: - A fair amount of hours - Limited usage per pokemon I think the third choice would be the most approapriate, as would give basicly the lazy choice, the pvp choice and the pve choice to purchase it. Furthermore, I am not currently 100% sure how to do it, so this is just an idea. Also for nature cases, there is a plan for it, that will be outside of this idea. TLDR: Yes to the idea, no to the exact way it is. Made suggestiongs, and chose what I think its my favourite. PS. To anyone that PMed me, I have a really limited internet access right now and can't do much. Aparently after tuesday/wednesday I should be fully back and will reply.

Alright, I'll give my insights now. Heads up, if you might be against what I am about to say, reply here in a civil way, I took several time to study this case in a overall manner and to be the most acceptable way. Furthermore, I'd like to start with saying the TLDR : I will not make all staff reward pokemons away from PvP. There isn't just PvP in PRO to think when doing changes, and staff has right to play the game and have fun. So we will be nerfing the rewards in Ranked PvP/Laddering from the current state, but won't forbid them. You may also be interested to see a post of my own, a few months ago, in the last big case of this matter, which you can enconter here. I talk about every topic I could think off for this, and some adaptation to the last time case. So, lets get started. ▶︎ Staff should and will be able to play Ranked PvP/Laddering with rewards they got. They are at maximum, 2, that means, you could only receive up to 2 rewards, and this only happens once per 6 months after working several hours, multiple days during the course of it. People overly underestimate how much effort staff put into the game, even if you are against staff as a whole or in a individual, there are people with actually thousands of hours devoted into PRO Staff'ing, which is more stressful enviroment than just pressing a few keys or the normal PvP pressure. ▶︎ Some food for thought: Imagine you get insulted on a constant basis, people trying to sue you, and tons of other ways people find to harrass you, this is how most of the staff lives currently. We don't publish this because it looks bad for the people that did that, nor I am writing this currently to make you pitty of us. But remember, after several hours, after several stress situations, after several attempts of trying to make the game better, the biggest reward staff can have are 2 pokemons in our current Reward Policy. So in a case, the staff that was under all those circunstances (received a reward after been through a lot) only enjoys to play PvP/Laddering while playing, would get forbidden to use their reward? So part of the community that they worked for are currently taking the last few bits of fun they have in they game. In a hypothetical scenario, don't you think this is bad? If this continues to happen, there will be somewhere when the best case scenario in the future will be "staff doesn't play the game, they are disconnected", and the bad cases is where the team gets reduced because it's hard to volunteer work for something if you are just getting bashed, and then the economy gets worse, there would be more infractions unpunished all around, and then the game would just pretty much implode. ▶︎ Now talking about this case, this in all honesty seems pretty ironic that, the rewards were there for quite some time in certain staff/former staff account. Now that actually both have time to enjoy what they enjoy most, playing PRO Ranked PvP, and those two are at least known to be good or at least above average as PvP players. Other players, which were former staff in the case I am considering the most efficient in this case, had a legendary pokemon, with extremely good stats, but yet, he wasn't as good in PvP, therefore, even though he played some there wasn't complains about it. Which leads me to think, why this ones, that aren't using even legendaries outside of whats catchable are being so atacked? Both players, which the case I study the most, aren't unbeatable, they share same winrates or have even lower as others without any sort of reward. ▶︎ Nonetheless, I'd also like to point out this fact that, tournament rewards would be forcefully handled the same way, in the way this suggestions went through. Remember those are actually good players, who were one of the best or even the best in the tournaments that happened before. They would most likely be able to use their pokemons in a way more profitable way than an average user. This could lead to say "but in tournament everyone has a shot", which I could state that, everyone can be a staff, if you show yourself helpful, with a good mindset and apply in the open recruitments, you will be invited and trained to be staff. (More information about this in the link I posted above, which a bigger and detailed reply) So, to end this reply, this is how it's going to be (90% decided, if you want to speak up, now its the time), if a staff wants to use their reward in Ranked PvP: • It's limited to 1 pokemon per team; • The Pokemon must be avaiable for players already. The pokemons are also not able to be changed whenever staff/former staff so decides, they are only avaiable to do so once every 2 months, which since my promotion, I did it 3 times I guess, not big of a deal. Furthermore, I saw suggested somewhere for us to write down which staff reward was given and to who, which I am sorry but I will refuse this idea, we need to safeguard the privacy of our members, some does not want to be public with their player account, not to hide anything, but when people want to play the game and enjoy it, being smoothered by PMs or questions are time and mentally consuming. I'd like to also add this last part, which will be that from now on, as long as I stand here, I will not change again a PvP rule to nerf staff rewards after this case. I understand this seems mean and evil but hear me out. The game as long as exists will keep evolving and changing, which is good correct? Over the past years the staff rewards have received changes, and besides one case, they were always nerfs. Currently, I am an Admin, which part of the role means make sure PRO and the staff are working, if we continue into a cycle of "complain>nerf" there will come to a point soon where there will be no more rewards to give to staff or anything to make them feel rewarded, none come to staff for a reward otherwise they would burn our, but there must be something so the motivation keeps high. (Again, the link I sent shows a better explanation into this matter) So, I am sorry if I sound rude in my words, my intention is not to harm anyone feelings, but this is an attempt to make this situation come to an end, and even tho I will be considered bias to say, I will not let the staff I work for unmotivated. With best regards, Shamac.
