what's going on with PRO?

[Jhonvga]

We've been a long time without a relevant update to the game, without any truly significant additions to the game's health. I'm going to list some points and want to see if you agree with me or what you think is happening.

- They implemented Gen 9 with an incomplete Gen 7.

- There's a lack of moves for Pokémon, both Gen 7 and Gen 9.

- Why can't we evolve Pokémon into their regional forms? (It could be a quick event like WQ or OTB so we can capture or evolve our Pokémon into their regional forms.)

- Many items are missing, as well as more detailed descriptions of some.

- They promise and announce a lot, like a Mudkip skin today. But as we've seen in the last few announcements, the only thing that actually arrived was Summer Island (very late, and I hope it doesn't interfere with the upcoming events).

- MS (Membership) is simply a very average item, something I can occasionally go without for a long time, since there aren't enough or even decent benefits for it. Honestly, I feel like I'm being left behind.

The game has a lot of potential, but the details need improvement. Player retention is horrible... Enough with the "fake" announcements, with things that will be released in a year... two years... or never even seen... like the SW Forms that were announced, and there wasn't even a SW event... Anyway, just a report from a relatively active player in the game.

Exactly, I used to make videos and walkthroughs of the game... I was watching a video from 6 YEARS AGO, and the game hasn't changed at all, 0 improvements. Today you only see skin announcements, every 10-50 skin announcements they make a "relevant" announcement like the boots that arrived in the game. But they delay so much, make so many mistakes and don't follow through on what they say, that I, my guild and company are completely disbelieving of this announcement. Just watch the last 10 announcements and see what actually arrived in the game... Not to mention that the guild panel has been bugged for over 3 months and nothing has been fixed xd

+1 I feel exactly the same way, for someone who plays a lot. The game has tremendous potential to attract players; they just don't want it.

really, the question remains... even the game's content creators are failing... there's nothing left to do other than A+D+RUN or throw the pokeball... little by little the game is becoming empty, leaving only the veterans with more than 5 thousand hours...

Absolutely nonsensical post. I can understand the frustration that comes up when there haven’t been updates for a while, but I’ve repeatedly provided updates explaining the longer wait time and also posted an extensive upcoming changelog for the next release, so you are not left in the dark without information.

 

The text fix in the guild tab you mentioned is also part of the changelog.

On top of that, I posted multiple status updates, expanded the changelog, and even shared videos of the box rework, the actual reason for the longer wait. I think we did a lot to keep you all properly informed. And as I already said many times before, the forms have no impact on the release. Artists work on them separately from the rest of the release, and we should be grateful that they dedicate so much of their time to giving us such a wide range of high-quality forms. That should never be seen as a point of criticism in that context.

It’s always disappointing seeing posts like this.

All you’re telling us is you don’t pay attention or don’t appreciate what is added/updated.

Claiming there’s been 0 improvements in 6 years is such a slap in the face to the entire Staff team and their efforts. 
Luckily, PRO is full of players that do appreciate everything that’s been added and you’re in a tiny minority, that unfortunately is loud. 
 

I can name many improvements to the game in the last 6 years, such as:

- Mega Pokemon (2020)

- Z-Crystals/Mono-Type Tournament (2023)

- Xmas Dungeon

- Lavender Dungeon (2023)

- Victini Dungeon

- Pinkan Dungeon (2024)

- Hoopa Dungeon (2024)

- PvP Chests (2025)

- Updates to existing features like Solaceon (2025), Celadon (2024), Sinnoh Underground (2025), Mirage Island (2022), among other smaller ones.

- Trainer rework for every region (2023)

- Gym Leader & Elite Four rework (2022)

- Fishing Contest & Multi Bug Catching Contest (2023)

- Trainers Tower (2023)

- Many new moves, such as Trailblaze, Flip Turn, etc. 

- Many new Pokémon added, such as Blacephalon, Growlithe-Hisui, and Kleavor

 

These are all the rather big content additions, not to mention all the smaller additions as well as the balance changes. Of course there are also all the maps, forms, mounts, cosmetics, chromas, and the scripting plus testing that comes with adding content.

Just because you don’t see the changes or they don’t affect your experience, doesn’t mean work isn’t being done and even those who do appreciate won’t know what is being done in the background. I get there’s frustration and I would like more content as well, but let’s not discredit all the time and effort that’s being put in by both the Content and Moderation team. Remember that all Staff are volunteers who use their personal free time to dedicate towards a free game. Let’s be appreciative of what we have.

It’s a small team doing the best they can with the time they have. I’m sure if they could instantly make constant updates they would but clearly that’s not feasible. Nor should it be expected to be done. They have added many new fun things we didn’t have before like mentioned above. And have more to bring in the future. It can’t happen instantly. Coding takes time and testing as well. People have been asking for a box update for a long time, they are working on making it perfect for us and people find a new reason to complain before they can even finish working on the previous complaint. Enjoy the game for what it is. Simple as that

I thought it was a bit arrogant of you to call the post completely meaningless, even though two players above confirm the same feeling regarding the change log. You and I know that the only thing posted in the official PRO discord announcements that actually arrived was Summer Island, with an extreme delay. I believe we could debate this for hours, maybe days. Older PRO players can add to what's being said. And the post is just a respectful discussion I'd like to have with the community to see if this "abandoned game" feeling is only happening to me! Honestly, the "completely meaningless post" is quite arrogant of you. Admitting mistakes, flaws, and complications within the team to implement major changes would be more honest.

 

I think you might not have fully understood the form factor. New players (something very difficult) might actually feel the hype, or a strong desire to play the game, because of this factor. As for us, older players who play several hours a day, we miss something that truly changes the game or makes a difference. Whether this mudkip skin comes or not doesn't really matter, because the game will continue and remain the same. You and I know this has been a very difficult year for the PRO. The artists' work is truly impressive and beautiful; I don't want them to stop. However, the honest feeling that the vast majority have is that this is all that's being done. Significant improvements like the BOX redesign, which is coming (no one knows when, I don't believe even the team knows), are something the community has always wanted and have been in development for YEARS (if they didn't start this year, or last month, or last week, or even yesterday). Your comment is very valuable, and I hope you follow along and see the general feedback! Have a great day and good work, everyone!
