Hi @PROMasterFai  and @mistake92

 

Story/Quest Services are completely legal services within PRO in exchange for in-game money, items, Pokemon or even can be offered as a gift.

 

For clarity: "Story/Quest Services"  specifically means that you have made an agreement with a player, who wants you to complete Story or a Quest on their account(s), the intention of completing the quests and returning the account after. 

 

With that being said, there are a couple things to be aware of:

• To protect yourself and your accounts as either a buyer or seller, please take screenshots of all trade agreements made and any conversations regarding the agreement.
• If someone is giving you an account, that is complete with Story progress, for in-game money, items, Pokemon (etc) - this account will then become your ownership. This is especially important to take note of, as you may have a maximum of 4 accounts.
• If the intended/requested payment for anything in-game (including, but not limited to: money, items, Pokemon, services) with Real World Money or Goods this is what we call RWT/RMT, please see Rule N°4 of the Game Rules for more information on this.

I hope that this offers some clarity for both of you. I will leave this thread open for the time being - f I have not explained any aspect of this clearly, please ask any questions so that you can offer your story services with confidence.

Now its bit confusing, since this thread with mod response state buying accounts is illegal either with pokedollars or rl money.

Even if buying would be illegal but story service legal, then whats the real difference then? Both serve the same purpose?

Hi @mistake92

 

The question asked in the original forum post was "is it legal to buy an account for pokedollars?" which is absolutely against the rules.

 

Offering story services for in-game money/items/Pokemon however is another question entirely. 

 

In short, if the payment is something you can find in-game, it's permitted, if the payment is found outside of PRO, it's absolutely not and is Real World/Money Trading. If there is no payment involved and you are gifting the account, this is fine, but you must be aware that this counts towards the 4-account limit.

 

I hope this helps!

Thanks that help I will reffer to this:)

You're more than welcome, apologies for the confusion! Again, if there's ever any uncertainty please do ask.
