But then is it really even pro related? The people who enter will have anything they want perfect stats no? Unlike keeping it in game where you use what you have. 1 Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/261246-1m-buy-in-pvp-tournament-gold-silver-%E2%80%93-aug-31-2025-%E2%80%93-top-5-places-paid/page/3/#findComment-1608714 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ykhtsu Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I mean, you’re free to leave whenever you want, but it doesn’t sound reasonable. How is it not PRO related if the rules are literally the same? The only thing Showdown does is remove hunting RNG and grind advantage, which honestly feels like the fairest thing for a competition Edited 4 hours ago by Ykhtsu 1 Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/261246-1m-buy-in-pvp-tournament-gold-silver-%E2%80%93-aug-31-2025-%E2%80%93-top-5-places-paid/page/3/#findComment-1608751 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying I’m not reasonable for saying I’m not entering if showdown is the move is kinda not up to you. I was playing it for fun.

Lugario Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Objectively Rhulk is correct about the fact that it should stay in PRO and not in Showdown. This forum and this game is about PRO and not about some battle simulator like Showdown. Why would even people invest their Pokedollars to participate in a tournament that won't happen on the same platform the Pokedollars come from? People have invested time on their Pokemon on PRO, and it wouldn't be fair for everyone to get perfect IVs just like that.

Saying I’m not reasonable for saying I’m not entering if showdown is the move is kinda not up to you. I was playing it for fun. I understand what you mean about "being the main thing that fuels the game", and I completely agree that it's part of the essence of the game, but that's different from being the main factor in competitive play, that point is very relative and varies from player to player, and while it may influence battles at more casual levels, at the top it definitely isn't the deciding factor. As for whether it's a fair reason not to participate, it is true that's not for me to judge. What bothers me is the way you brought up the subject, which comes across more as an attempt to pressure or guilt-trip, without presenting solid arguments more like imposing your will than having a discussion. 25 minutes ago, Lugario said: Objectively Rhulk is correct about the fact that it should stay in PRO and not in Showdown.

People have invested time on their Pokemon on PRO, and it wouldn't be fair for everyone to get perfect IVs just like that. Now, I really don't get your point. Even if this tournament is hosted on Showdown, it would still follow PRO's rules, isn’t that enough to establish a proper correlation? The purpose of using Showdown is mainly for practice and ensuring that all matches are conducted correctly, with the added of testing skill rather than how long someone took to catch a """perfect""" Pokémon, which can be interpreted as either a positive or negative aspect, depending on perspective. After all, this was a suggestion that I and Subhammaster brought to Lacomus due to some limitations in PRO that could cause issues, such as: - Replays can be lost, since there is a limited amount we can check in our accounts. - Players from different servers might get stuck on one server and be unable to complete their battles. - While PRO's in-game PvP resources are improving, they are still somewhat unreliable. For instance, it might lack key information like the date the battle was played, the format used, and other details that could be useful for verification. These are some of the scenarios I had in mind when I proposed moving the tournament to Showdown. 1 1 Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/261246-1m-buy-in-pvp-tournament-gold-silver-%E2%80%93-aug-31-2025-%E2%80%93-top-5-places-paid/page/3/#findComment-1608796 Share on other sites More sharing options...
