  1. E4 just takes twice as long now. So when everything is on cooldown you can still do 2-3 E4 runs. The strategy of me popping an Amulet Coin at the last fight of E4 then doing gym runs is still profitable for me.
  2. It work on my Wn7 computer but doesn't on Win10.
  3. I agree. EXP share gives 50% and while the daycare gave 10% more it costs money to do so. It was fair. I feel like 20% is so low for the cost, it's practically daylight robbery. Either keep the 20% but make it free or change it back please.

    The game only goes up to gen 5.
  5. I wish they were more transparent on why they made the change. Was it because it was ruining PvP? Or was it because someone posted a video of them clearing E4 in 20-ish minutes so they wanted to nerf it? I'm betting it was the latter. They could probably nerf Baton Pass if they added phazers in the E4 teams but that would mean more work than disabling it. Maybe once they're done with that they're going to make BP work properly again.
  6. Sinnoh came out a few hours ago.
  7. It's intended. It stops people from using 6 pokemons with Sweet Scent to farm.
  8. You can always run E4 without using Baton Pass. But yeah, this is a big hit for people that run E4 for money. However with the new Pokemons added we might find a new team that would work better, you never know.
  9. Maybe? I never tried. I know it also has a Shadow Ball but I think Metagross can survive a hit. What moves do you have on it? Because you might just get walled by a different pokemon.
  10. Your rival in Kanto has a team that uses Magic Guard Alakazam with a Focus Sash. Because of that you will take a hit. And since people like to use Conkeldurr (since it's pretty strong and good move coverage) it will die in one hit against an Alakazam. I guess you can use a pokemon that has a multi hit move or someone that can survive an Alakazam but I haven't touched a Baton Pass team in a while so I don't know what works and what doesn't.
  11. Yes, it is possible. I've been doing Kanto E4 for a while now. I believe Kanto is one of the harder ones since you can't use a Baton Pass team to sweep through it. Try doing Hoenn and Unova with a Baton Pass team instead. Someone posted their teams and even a video of them doing it. Also it is only 1v1, never 2v2 and more than 10 teams to choose from. I think I've encountered 22 Lorelei teams so far. Although you can always spot a pattern. If a team has a weather starter then they will always lead with that or if a pokemon uses a move you can usually figure out what other moves they have. I think I spend 15-20k on healing items. And yes, doing E4 isn't ideal for making money, you should just focus on gyms. I do them because it's fun. I would post what team I use but it's really not that good. It does take me a while to finish a run.
  12. You only have to go through the Digglet Cave twice or something in the story. If you're only complaining about that specific point in the story and a place you will never have to go back to once you're done, then yeah, they won't change it.
  13. The xmas event is the friends we made along the way.
  14. Impressive. I've also been playing around with Shedinja but I never can get it to work. I've never tried using it as a Baton Passer and mainly just used it as a pivot though, I might try it. However the main problem I have with Baton Pass team, especially yours, is a Magic Guard Alakazam with Focus Sash. It can KO your Conkeldurr and the only thing you have left would be Shedinja, which also gets KO'd by it. This could just be a Kanto thing though as I've never done Unova and Hoenn E4 extensively yet.
  15. Only 10k? That's impressive. What team are you using?
  16. No. If the pokedex only lists one ability then that Pokemon only has one ability.
  17. That post never said anything about hidden abilities. If a Pokemon has multiple abilities, that's not a hidden ability, you can buy an Ability Pill from the NPC that sells breeding items. They're 35k.
  18. Probably because HGSS doesn't have Gen 5 pokemons in them. So if you use something like Jellicent in Hoenn it would use the BW sprites and they most likely wanted to avoid that since it would look weird and stuck with BW sprites as default.
  19. What exactly are you having trouble with? I've never spent more than ~30k on Kanto E4 rematches. Out of all the times I fought the Kanto E4 only 2 teams gave me trouble. Lorelei's team that has Vileplume because it has Sleep Powder, Giga Drain, Moonlight and Sludge Bomb, anything that switches in on it can get poisoned or put to sleep. Not to mention it has 2 recover moves. Lorelei's team that has Chansey because of Toxic and Softboiled, plus it can set up Stealth Rock. It's difficult for me to OHKO without a fighting move so I spend 3-4 turns trying to KO it. By then it would have poisoned me and made switching harder because it used Stealth Rock. Another thing is that the team that has Chansey in it also has a Vileplume in it, so double annoying. And maybe a third team which is my rival's team that has a Magic Guard Alakazam with Focus Sash. I can't break it with Stealth Rock or Spikes so it always gets an attack off which usually KO's one of my pokemon. But that's the last battle so I don't really care. You're supposed to build a balanced team to beat the E4. It's difficult to sweep your way through it. What I found extremely helpful are recover moves since it saves potions and Protect to scout moves. Having Protect means you can scout a move then switch your pokemons to counter that move. Gengar using a Focus Blast? Switch in Chandelure then use Shadow Ball against it to OHKO it. Magnezone using Thunderbolt? Switch in Excadrill and use Earthquake. Also a lot of people claim that the AI can predict your moves. That's wrong. I've seen Bruno's Steelix spamming Stone Edge on my Skarmory, when I used Roost, even though it has Earthquake. Roost removes my flying type so if the AI was able to predict what moves I will use then it should have used Earthquake to hit me for super-effective damage instead of a not very effective damage. I wish I saved a screenshot of it for proof. If your strategy doesn't work then don't be afraid to change it. Yeah, it sucks that you have to breed and train more pokemons just to test it out against the E4, and even then it might not work. That sucks, but it's part of the game. I've bred 16 2x31 and 3x31 Pokemons and trained them before finding a strategy that works for me. And I don't plan on stopping, I have plans to breed 3 more 3x31s to see if another strategy might work. Just have fun with it.
  20. Sounds like you're just bad at the game, friendo.
  21. Like, lore wise? In the whole Pokemon universe it would probably be Arceus, as it created the whole universe along with the creation trio and the lake guardians. In terms of stats, in the whole Pokemon franchise Mega Rayquaza and Mega Mewtwo has the highest base stat of 780. In PokeMMO itself Rayquaza is probably the strongest in terms of lore; statwise it's also Rayquaza along with Zekrom, Reshiram and Mewtwo.
  22. I do E4, Kanto and Hoenn gyms (I skip Unova gyms), Morimoto and the two trainers in Route 13, Unova. Takes around two hours. E4 = ~137k Gyms = ~195k Morimoto = ~22k Two trainers = 15k E4 Supplies = -20k Amulet Coin = -30k Total = 319k If I feel like farming some more then I do E4 without an Amulet Coin. I get around ~80k an hour.
  23. Do you really believe this? Because I don't. Here's an example, the item Choice Scarf. Back then they were like 220-250k. Now they're around 180k. Back then I was able to get 225k an hour farming gym runs and trainers. So, in one hour I was able to afford a Choice Scarf back in the day. Today I'm making 180k an hour without an amulet coin. Is it lower? Yeah it is. But did I spend more time trying to get enough money to get a Choice Scarf compared to last year? No. In fact you get more money now because of the amulet coin buff.
