Changing the minimum IV from 1 to 0?

[Ravenrain]

I don't think that it makes the biggest difference ever, but in my opinion it should remain as it is.

[Immortaleevee]

i think this game should be more like the original games in some ways, if in the original games the IVs can go to 0 then please make it go to 0

[Fantasiazero]

Absolutely not.

 

Pros:

1. Maximize damage from moves like Gyro Ball.
   

0.0000000298023224 % chance to get a 31 31 0 x 31 31 ferrothorn

that would deal :

0 Atk Ferrothorn Gyro Ball (97 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Clefable: 174-206 (44.1 - 52.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

Possible damage amounts: (174, 176, 180, 180, 182, 186, 186, 188, 192, 192, 194, 198, 198, 200, 204, 206)

 

vs

 

0.0000000349294326 % chance to get a 31 31 1 x 31 31 ferrothorn

that would deal :

0 Atk Ferrothorn Gyro Ball (95 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Clefable: 170-204 (43.1 - 51.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

Possible damage amounts: (170, 174, 176, 176, 180, 182, 182, 186, 188, 188, 192, 194, 194, 198, 200, 204)

 

to gain a MASSIVE 1% damage? Is that considered a benefit?

 

Pros:

 

2.Your Pokemon has a higher chance to go last.

3.Your Pokemon will be faster in Trick Room teams.

 

Those 2 points are the same. Weather setter tho if we want to add something.

 

Pros:

4.Will be the same as in original games.

I like this game because it's inspired and not a carbon copy. So it's not really a pro. There is an endless list of features in original games that are unpraticable on an MMO.

Also we have those special contents that make the game unique in its gender, it's so precious and I feel it's one of the reason people love this game although we really get mad

from time to time about crashes and stuff, but we are always back at it, happy to play.

Don't justify action with "it's like the original game!". I don't see it as a pro or as a true motivation.

 

Con:

1. It will be harder to get higher IV Pokemon statistically (Chance for a 6x31 Pokemon changes from 1/887.503.681 to 1/1.073.741.824).

 

The list's format is beautiful: 4 pros vs 1 cons, the perfect deal.

But the thing is...to achieve those 4 "pros", you have to face that giant cons.

 

 

Tl;Dr:

There are 2 lotteries:

In the first you have to guess 5 numbers and you can win 100$

In the second you have to guess 6 numbers and you can win 101$

The choice is obvious.

I prefer getting high iv mons easier instead of a tiny bit more dmg on Gyro Ball

Also the trick room speed is relativ cause you dont Need 0 speed if no one else got 0

[Water02]

I would roll with it.

[Smokincatcher]

Hell no there's no breeding like the original games, farm is not easy in pro we already spend much time farming to get epics, what the point if its just for adding a few damage on just one move? and for trick room not much people plays it,spd ties with 1 spd would be same than with two pokés with 0 spd, the impact of the disadvantages is much significant than the impact of the benefits, would it make pro better? hard to say yes imo

[Fisbol13]

Is so hard to catch a poke with Epic IV so in my opinion the answer is no.

[Eobard]

Thing is that in official game, breeding allows you to manipulate the IVs which you can't do here. As the IVs are full random in PRO, the difficulty will increase even more to find an epic Pokemon. It already takes few hours to find a 20+ IV pokemon, even if it's a tier 1. There's some stuff that don't exist here and wont, that exists in main games. Imo, PRO should not aim for being a "MMO-Copy" of main games.

 

Hope you understood my opinion :)

True True my man.

The changes to speed aren't too important in my opinion. I think we should keep what we have right now, there has never been a demand to change it before and I don't see it being a necessity.

 

As other users mentioned too, we shouldn't aim to be a carbon copy of the main games. I'm content with how it is right now.
