  1. I'm not a MS seller (or user, don't have the money for it, rip) but the price of every product is estabilished through the supply and demand of that product. If the MS price is high, it's because there are people willing to pay that price. As a seller point of view, you just want to maximize profit. If there is one person willing to buy MS for 1m and another person willing to pay 1,5m you bet it's gonna be sold for 1,5m (just like when auctioning pokemon, best offer wins unless there's an instant clause). So I don't really see the issue, the market is functioning as it should. The only way of lowering the price of MS, would be everyone not buying them for the price asked by the sellers. Since the sellers want to sell, they would be forced to lower the price. Maybe I'm clueless ? Enlighten me if I'm completely off. :Smile:
  2. Is your Ninetails timid or has +spd nature ? Is it possible that the Kingdra naturally outspeed your Ninetails without the need of rain ?
  3. Grind until you have 1m to buy ms and you have 30 days to catch all of those. Or just trade with others that have those pokemons. Both options are free. Don't see where's the problem here.
  4. I'm gonna share my way of hunting Abra since it's not been mentioned. You can take advantage of how pokemon taunted with no attacking moves is broken at the moment. Just run a pokemon with Taunt + False Swipe, taunt the first turn, false swipe the 2nd -> guaranteed catch with a pokeball. It's broken because Abra should use struggle on the 2nd turn which would faint after the false swipe but it acts like it was taunted the same turn (so nothing happens). I usually use Sneasel, because I think it's the most common pokemon in the game that learns this 2 moves, but you can use Absol, Zangoose, Gligar, I'm sure there are others.
  5. PvP should be always heavily focused on any MMO. This game is no exception. If there is a PvP community, the game will never die out. I joined this game just a few weeks ago and I feel that this game is too PvE focused. I'm not bashing, for me the PvE of this game is a 10/10 with a lot of stuff to do and props to the creators that don't do this for a living but still make great content. However, the PvE doesn't last forever. It's a gradual thing and very unstable. It depends on the free time of the creators. Sometimes it takes weeks to make new concent, sometimes months...and that makes people mad (without a good reason but that's how the human being works). So people stop playing. My point of bringing this up is -> If you focus on PvP, people will be more patient with the PvE aspect of the game, therefore more happy players, therefore staff has less players to hear about their complaints. Everybody wins in my honest opinion. And the most important part - PvP just depends on the playerbase that plays it, they create the meta. If there are no bugs in PvP, all moves and abilities work like they should to, you'll never see them complaining. It's like raising a child until it gets a stable job - after that moment you don't need to worry about him/her, it's independent and it'll follow its course. However, there are a bunch of moves, abilities and items that don't work, which force, in my opinion, an unhealthy meta where teams that aren't fun to play with and against are the ones that win the most - yeah I'm talking about stall and overdefensive teams. It's ok to play them, it's not ok if they're overpowered due to the lack of offensive options to actually make the pokemon battle entertaining. And with this word, entertaining, I start to be more ontopic. Everyone plays this because it's entertaining. Since it's a MMO, it's much more enjoyable if you play with friends or just people you casual speak ingame. So spectating is a huge deal. The game is mostly about battles. Showing to your friends that you are the better battler, the better pokemon master and all that good stuff that the anime tries to input into our minds. So battling is kinda of a sport. And in every sport there are the players and the spectators. The spectators spectacte (apology of the redundance) because it's fun, and I believe that this feature would affect most of the playerbase of this game. Not only the competitive players would spectacte but also the casual player would. The argument of people stealing teams is pure non-sense. The game has many years of developed metagame, if you're the first to come up with that team that works competitively - you're trully an innovator. However, I believe that people deserve their privacy if they request it, so a simple button in the options saying "Deny spectating of my battles" would solve the issue. Apologies for the wall, had to get this out of my system. This game has huge potential, would love to see reach its peak that in my opinion is PvP completed. And apologies for possible grammar errors, I'm not english native.
  6. I didn't show the calcs because I thought it was common sense that 15% of the hp of a lv.71 Steelix isn't 100% of the hp of a lv.66 Rampardos. But very well, I'll show the calcs: My Steelix had like 206 hp, 15% of that is, more or less, 31. So Rampardos should have lost 15 hp in the recoil. A Rampardos with 0 IV HP and 0 EV's has 204 hp at lv.66. (15/204)*100 = 7,3%. Which is waaaaaay far from the 50% that he lost.
  7. I was against an NPC that had a Rampardos, I switched out to my Steelix on a Head Smash, so it didn't do a lot (like 10-15% of my hp). And the Rampardos lost 50% of its total hp instead of 50% of the hp that I lost on my Steelix. A little mistake in the coding of the move probably, but it makes a big difference.
  8. Meh for that price I'm going to keep it xD . Thanks for the reply. :Grin:
  9. I just started playing and I got this Eevee in the Celadon GameCorner part of the storyline. Its hidden power is ice, if I'm not mistaken. Since the ability isn't ha, he would make a good Jolteon (if not for that crappy speed, he would be godly imo). I wanna do PvP when I finish the storyline of this game. I'm asking for a price check because I'm uncertained if it's better to keep it for my own, or if it's worth a lot, I may consider selling it to get a jump start when building a team for PvP. Thanks. :Grin:
