I think its way better use Poison Heal Breloom to catch ditto stead Smeargle. Just Substitute turn one and ditto ill be unable to transform.
Since this thread is revived, I'll mention the assist smeargle set up, which is the most efficient set up for catching dittos. This is also briefly explained in this guide post:
Assist set up requires 1 smeargle + 1 poke that knows spore and, preferably, uncallable moves only. The best way to run this set up is with 2 smeargles but 1 smeargle + 1 paras/shroomish etc. is also okay. For 1st smeargle, we put false swipe + assist + 2 moves that does nothing in 1v1 battle (sketch/splash/helping hand etc.) and for 2nd smeargle, we have spore + uncallable damage moves like covet. The list of uncallable moves can be found here: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Assist_(move)#Uncallable_moves
To catch ditto, simply do false swipe + assist (which will call only spore) and catch it. Ditto will transform into 1st smeargle which does nothing to slow catching progress. Procedure is same if you lead with sync poke like ralts.
As mentioned in the above link, this method is faster than breloom + subs since we don't waste a turn using substitute.
Also, it is better to use 2nd smeargle instead of paras etc. because we can put uncallable damage moves like covet to take care of the non-ditto horde in case of random shiny. For reference, this is the assist set up I use for ditto catching:
The only downside for this method is preparing this set up. Besides that, there is no other downsides.

Also, before i spend more money testing stuff: Softboled can heal pokemon at party outside battles here?
Softboiled cannot be used outside of battle here.
Also, stop wasting time with E4 imo. Gym reruns is more efficient I'm sure. With AC (amulet coin), you can comfortably get +200k with any decent level 100 team. If you invest a bit and optimize your team for runs, you can get a bit above 300k with one AC.
Gym reruns are very easy when you go prepared, while there are different sets that gym leaders use, it's still trivial after preparation so you can farm them effortlessly

I need to buy a Sludge Bomb TM, and according to your post, I could buy it in Celadon dpt store. But, I cant find all TMs there.
In short, you can buy all TMs from the department stores (but they're not all in one NPC). Here as you see, floor 2 in Celadon Store has Sludge Bomb

Refer here for complete information that's included in pokedex, which also has the location for wild encounters:
The page loads slow, give it time.
Also I don't quite get what you're looking for. If you're looking to grind for exp, route 12 rapidash horde and hoenn BF tenta horde are good exp spots. Otherwise, it's better to hunt for egg groups instead of types.

Theres any topic more updated to those stuffs in the forums?
Yes, for moves, glance over the details in latest update:
Short summary is that, tutors and move reminders/deleters are moved to pokecenter and you can refer to this guide to see which tutor moves are thought in which tutors:TMs are included in big marts.
4 minutes ago, Paulo300991 said:So, this game has more content than the original Gen 5, right?
Here we have gen5 poke (so no fairies and steel resists dark) with gen5 moves (so no moves that are introduced in gen6 or later) but with gen8 learn set i think.

I recall that back then devs said the rate varies. More rare Pokemon = higher item chance. common pokemon = lower chance. But that has been a while ago and im not 100% sure about it, would have to dig it up but meh, motivation
Thanks for your response, after some digging I found this response which was made in 2019.
On 6/22/2019 at 12:35 AM, Rache said:If something has a chance to hold an item in one location, it has a chance to hold the same item in all locations it can be found in - it's determined entirely by the species, not by where it's found. The only exception to this rule is that anything encountered via smashing rocks has a chance to hold a fossil, when regular encounters of the same species don't.
On 6/22/2019 at 2:19 AM, Rache said:The rate doesn't vary at all, you're just getting lucky/unlucky. It's a flat 5% chance in this instance, no matter which region you're hunting in.
So seems like the way it works currently is 5% flat.
However, I also found this
and there, it seems the OP's experience was that some items were easier to find on some pokemon than others, which makes sense if more rare Pokemon = higher item chance. common pokemon = lower chance. Also this was posted in 2015 .

This can also be helpful for newer players as well. Often times when they ask for help for trade evo, and I tell them I can help them in whisper, they don't know where to see/change their channels. If they can simply link their location like they link their pokes, that'd be helpful.

We can see which items a poke can hold in wild from dex but do we know anything about the chance a wild poke holds an item? Is it 5% for everything (or for most)?

... but one could argue that Breloom is better due to its ability Poison Heal (give Breloom Toxic Orb)...
This is slower than assist smeargle set up. HP gain is irrelevant since ditto won't kill you with false swipe. That being said, breloom + sub is popular ditto catcher, but in terms of time efficiency, it's certainly slower than assist smeargle set up.
Disadvantage of assist smeargle is that you have limited options when you encounter shiny in random horde. As a solution, you bring another smeargle instead of parasect (that knows spore + uncallable move such as covet)

This is a very well written guide, thanks for posting.

Overall everything seems fine, it's just that this sentence below seems a little off.
On 4/28/2020 at 4:58 PM, Liper said:Let the pokemon with correct nature take an everstone and breeding.
Maybe replace "and breeding" with "and continue breeding" or just delete "and breeding" all together.
Also, do you want to add a few sentences regarding OT, OT* and Unknown OT? So that those who refer to guide can also learn about them. Just for completeness, remember that
QuoteThe egg is OT only if the parent that's same species as the egg is OT, otherwise egg is OT* if both parents are non-shiny and it is Unknown OT if both parents are shiny.
There are also some special mechanics and notes about breeding for certain cases like breeding male only pokes, breeding some of the babies, passing Volt Tackle to Pikachu etc. You certainly don't have to include every single exception. I'm just reminding them in case you want to mention.
A lot of players asking for breeding guides daily in the chat so it'll be nice to refer them here. Thanks again.

Maybe you're lagging. Type
/pingIt'll show your ping (on a chat where system messages can be seen). 1000 ms deal is equivalent to 1 second delay.
If your ping isn't high (less than 150 ms) then you at least verify it's not due to your internet -

For reference, OT dex is maxed out at 606, basically 602+4 catchable legendaries (mewtwo/rayquaza/arceus/keldeo)
Also, there is no reward for going up to 606 from 602 but at least then, you'll know you're completely maxed out

So, I'd really want to understand how swarms work exactly, I think they are a cool mechanic, but it's hard to keep track of which pokémon can spawn at swarms and where, since I can't look it up with the pokédex. Is there anywhere I can see the swarm locations? And also, how long do they last? Can they spawn in multiple regions or only one at a time? I'd be very grateful if someone could answer me this <3 e_e ( english not first language )
To supplement what's said above, you can also refer this guide for general info:
Unfortunately, this guide isn't that comprehensive. OP insisted to use private google doc to gather data and then stopped updating the guide. Moreover, it's also confirmed that this statement:
Pokemon from swarms often have good IV stats.
is wrong. That being said, the guide is still sufficient to explain how swarms work in general and provides decent info regarding known swarms.

That means that if the egg were causally shiny, it would have OT Lamsakr * or put Unknown?
Whether it's OT* or Unknown OT depends on parents, not the egg. Sorry if I wasn't clear above, for your case, any charmander you get by breeding OT* and any ditto will be OT*, even if the egg is shiny or not. So for your question, the answer is that you'll get OT*.
However, if you breed two shinies in which the parent that's same species as the egg is not OT, then the shiny egg will be Unknown OT. I hope this is clear.
EDIT: An easy way to see is to remember it as, what you see in breeding screen is what you get. It doesn't matter if the regular parent's produce a shiny egg randomly.

Through a bit of research, I discovered the items like Relic Vase, Relic Crown etc. are supposed to be located in Abyssal Ruins, which is not implemented in PokeMMO.
Thanks for your reply Sethsen, I also saw this in bulbapedia as well. However, it also says that relic copper/silver/gold are also located in Abyssal Ruins, but in pokemmo they're available (I also own relic copper and relic silver but not relic gold but I've seen people linking relic gold before). So I was wondering if this was also the case for other relic items such as relic vase/crown etc.
7 minutes ago, Sethsen said:Are you looking for these Relic items in order to sell them to the maniac? If so, that is yet not implemented in PokeMMO.
Just as I completed the living dex, I want to completely obtain all available items in the game. At least as much as I can. I am aware item maniacs don't exists in here but thanks for verifying

A question that worries me is knowing if I am using pokemons of which I am not the original trainer when searching for a shiny using the breed method (that is, by eggs). When the shiny appears, will he come out with an unknown OT?
The answer for your question is shiny will be OT*.
The way it works is that,
If the parent that's same species as the egg is OT, then egg is OT, otherwise egg is OT*.
If both parents are shiny, replace the term "OT*" as "Unknown OT" in above sentence.

Hello @Dip,
Try to have a look in this guide:
I hope you can find what you are looking for. Nonetheless, I wish you a great day. o/
Thanks for your reply, but the reason I made this post is because none of the guides have info regarding relic gold and other relic items (other than relic copper/silver).
Have a good day as well, my question remains unanswered.
Also, to clarify, I know for a fact relic gold exists in game. I saw it linked in chinese chat before. As for the other relic items I listed in OP, I'm not sure if they're available.
Regardless, although such guides provide fantastic info, unfortunately they're not complete

a word
Agreed and it is not hard to see this. Quick glance at GTL for choice items and comparing BP spent vs. money gained is enough.
It seems the most "profitable" way to spend BP is to buy breeding braces and use them accordingly (either breed for yourself or spam breed up to 3 31 / 4 31 with egg groups that can use multiple natures then put em on GTL).
Also, I appreciate the attitude but I prefer quality over quantity. You're free to do as you please though
