Hi, First of all, congrats on getting the 8 badges :) If you really troubles to defeat Kanto's E4, Windypuff wrote a guide on how to do it easily (most of the images are broken but the guide itself is not xD) But honestly -and as someone who did the whole story thrice-, that only seems to be an insuperable challenge because there is no challenge before that; the first Bosses you'll challenge will feel the same way but, in the end and after a whole lot of training, you'll be able to solo most of them with only one poké. But yeah, this kind of power requires dedication and motivation, fortunately. :3 Besides, if the regional Leagues were to be "parted" from the story, the badges would be useless and, as they also "slow down" your progression (to a lesser extent than a League but still), according to this logic, they should be an option too ? That leaves only walking and brawling with youngsters, bug catchers and other fishermen. Not the highest prestige. :Crazy: Because you're not Ash. Ash is Ash. He's unique. A special snowflake.

Haha, Voldemort. Awkward hugs, awkward laughs, awkward nose. By the way, have fun to the movie! When is "tomorrow", for you? xD (meaning "which timezone are you in ?")

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ? Nah, and I don't really intend to... Just the fact that it takes place in the 1920's (for some reason, I'm really not fond of these times, whichever the movie is (yeah, Titanic too) .-. ) is a big turn off for me. But I've heard some good of it :3 Also, what really made me love the serie this much is the trio of protagonists, especially Hermione know-it-all Granger, because who else could've said this kind of things (and not only in HP's universe xD) : Not on my watch. :devil:

Hi, welcome back, and also thanks, your username just reminded me of a long forgotten song :D

It's in game, nothing that you can do now that you're stuck in the "already logged in" ^^

Three things to steal items properly: Your Thief/Covet Pokémon shan't hold any item when trying to steal the opponent's;The wild Poké mustn't have the ability Sticky Hold nor Suction Cups;Once the item successfully stolen (a message appears informing you so), you have to defeat the wild Poké, you can't run away otherwise the aforementioned item will be lost. Killing -or not- the wild Poké with Covet/Thief doesn't affect the stealing itself. Hope I was able to clear things up :)

In Read this before making a suggestion is stated the following: If you're mentioning the Spawn and Rarity system thread, it is not 100% accurate; it says for example that Nincada is "common" and Skitty "extremely rare", which is actually the other way around (as it doesn't take the excavations in consideration, otherwise Houndour wouldn't be noted as "rare"), and if you mention Nightjay's Rarity Guide, Steelix is only noted as "scarce" there -actually the same than Red's-. ^-^ But if you farmed long enough to get a Shiny Steelix (congrats, btw), aren't you in a good position to tell yourself whether Steelix is as rare as Klefki or not?

Hi, I can't remember in which thread this has been suggested too (as you rightfully stated, there are numerous of them), but if I recall correctly, it turned out that it wouldn't work, for the same reason than kicking/banning the player didn't work the multiple times it has been tried. I don't remember the full details either, but it's something like "the server thinks that you're online, but you're not, therefore cannot be kicked/disconnected" Only a server complete reboot can solve this issue, and this is why it's preferable to avoid being stuck in this in the first place, and the best way to do so is to always log out via Options > Log Out

It's coded correctly. Just not the generation you would want. It only activates when below 50% HP since Gen IV, which conveniently match the loss of HP of Belly Drum indeed. Gen 3 = ⅓ = 33% HP left, so no, it can't activate after Belly Drum However, OP never told anything about Belly Drum

"A Sitrus Berry, if held by a Pokémon, can restore 30 HP when its HP drops to below ⅓, or can be used as an item to restore 30 HP at any time." [float=left]- https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Sitrus_Berry[/float] It has nothing to do with neither the IVs or EVs of any pokémon ever, and yes it is coded correctly

Did anybody else noticed that, now that Kagawa got promoted Game Master (congrats btw :Grin: ), he became a Shiny Scizor? :Crazy: Also, I win.

Actually -at least last year-, a XMas Pokémon has[glow=red]1 out of 4096[/glow]chances to appear (twice more """common""" than a shiny); only the clones have 5% and that's probably precisely because the starters are already extremely rare :) Speaking of last year's Christmas Event.. .. Is it mandatory that this year's Xmas Pokés aren't the same than last year's? Otherwise, I'd love to get another shot to have a Xmas Furret and Farfetch'd, they're so cute '-' EDIT: OMG Yes, with Voltorb/Electrode as Christmas Tree's ornaments xD

Wait, did you mistype "now" or you really meant that? Just checking, 'cause that is what actually should be done. :p

They already tried to kick and/or ban the account stuck in the matrix, but nothing worked except a whole server reboot. So yeah, patience and not logging out barbarically (always use Options > Log Out) are important things. ^-^

Haha, this is just a feeling because of all the colours :Angel: You're welcome, I am glad I could be of help :) Good Will Hunting!

You can also click on the username (in a channel or your friends/guild members list) or its character. Same way, you can /friend username, but the /pm command is good to. :p Other command's fact, you can add multiple people in a single PM box by adding more -=-username Exempli gratia: /pm Mecanojilano-=-Jaccard1-=-Teo77 However, as long as 1 person's PM box remains open, whenever he will write in it, it will re-open to every people who was in it but closed it, even if they disconnected, so use it reasonably. :) If you were talking about Forum's PM however, then you can left click on an user's name and "reply to PM", or click on the dots a bit below one's avatar, "Contact > Send Private Message" Or directly into your Mail box and "Compose Message"

Quote for visibility and because not copy/pasting starts to get annoying for that matter : [...] I am deeply sorry that you have to wait all this time, but it should be rebooted soon. Best of luck

Hi, This issue has been there for ever; there's no way to technically get rid of it for good. [float=left]But there is a minor change in your way of playing that can:[/float] [glow=green]Open your backpack in battle every 20min max.[/glow] Even if you're in front of a wild Rattata that you want to run away from. Just open it, it may freeze a couple of seconds but then you'll run and you can keep looking for the Pokémon you want. Bear in mind that you can bind 2 different keys for the backpack, so you can even bind one on each end of your keyboard, making it easily accessed no matter which hand you are playing with. That way, you will never stress again when you're in front of a shiny/rare until your game unfreezes itself, as you will access your pokéballs in under 5 seconds. :p [glow=red]EDIT: PS: DO NOT spam click on the game window when frozen, otherwise your OS may end it by itself way before the afk kick.[/glow]

They won't kick 400 - 800 players (depending on the server) or lock it for 20 minutes + reboot in order to make it possible for 20 others to join again, I guess, so sorry but you'll have to take your troubles patiently. :Ambivalent: I'm sure that they are trying to figure out a way to fix this infamous issue though, as there are at least 5 threads per day about it... EDIT: If it's even possible, actually. But there's a thing that I have a hard time trying to understand: I have over 1500 hours of playtime, through several months of gameplay, and yet I've never had this issue.. Are you all leaving the game via Alt+F4 or I'm just lucky since the day I joined ?

There's nothing that you can do except waiting longer, it's only up to the server's stability or manual reboot (for updates), since there are no daily reboot anymore

Hi, and welcome to the forums :) Indeed, the forums can help you a lot, especially the Game Guide sections, General Support and the FAQ. When you have a question about pretty much anything, use the search bar (top right corner) and you'll most likely find your answer without even having to ask by yourself. :p Enjoy the game too! :)

I don't think merging servers is a thing which will ever happen: What would happen to Pokémons sharing the same ID? Would they be merged into one as well? Pokémon fusion, finally? :Crazy: And people having a save on both servers, which one would be kept, why, and how would they know which one you wanted to keep? What about the guilds? Etc. The only option would be to just close the less populated and people could then only choose -indeed, as NamelessHero stated- to start all over again or just quit the game, incredibly frustrated. :/ Actually, even Deathwing and Lunestra told that it was nearly impossible: And why wouldn't it be possible to get back to the 3 servers full state? :p I've seen this game and community grow up (not for nearly as long as Somes, but still ^^), and the latter started to grow up exponentially around Christmas holidays. Now that Pokémon Sun and Moon are out, it might bring curious people -or those who got bored of these- on/back to PRO, or when people will have holidays, etc. We shall see. :3

Your very own Rube Goldberg machine! Congratulations xD I don't remember how many posts you need exactly in order to be able to post links, but you should be able to anytime soon^^ That's actually really good to know, I'm too lazy to verify this right now but I'll bear it in mind, thank you :) Anyway, glad you could find a solution cheaper than 200 bucks :p Enjoy :Angel:

omg.. is that something we can do with the android client for PRO or is it Developer only? like source-code needed to port over? but omg.. I would LOVE to play PRO on my VITA!! please! lol It says "developer" at least 4 times for a reason. :Crazy: Only Shane can make such decision, anybody else trying this would probably violate the "Editing the PRO Game/Client is prohibited" rule Besides, the option for controller on PC doesn't work, so I don't know how it would go on a PS Vita. :p You probably have a smartphone though, isn't it enough to run the game if not on PC? Unless you still have one of the first samsung galaxy which came out, ever, like me, even unable to run a sound-only game (no joke, there was a game like that and I couldn't download it xD) Anyway, I don't think buying a device for one game is a good thing, tablet or PS4 (R.I.P. Red Dead Redemption 2 for me, it's not worth a brand new console alone. :< ) Why are you looking for a tablet by the way? Aren't you able to play on your PC ?
