Welcome here !
 
Here are all my shinies I've found on PokeMMO. Since the summer 2023, I decided to dedicate my time to the shiny hunting, so here are my shinies in order.

⛔️ Warning :  Some shinies don't have my main OT. In fact, I'm also shunting with alts accounts. My main OT is HarleZe, the alts are HrleZe and HarlZe. I know some shiny hunters don't consider the alts. Personally, I don't mind. Like, a shiny is a shiny, if it pop in front of my eyes, I have the same feelings for the main OT or the alt. I consider them in my collection, otherwise I wouldn't use these accounts for shunting. (+ These accounts were only made for shunting, nothing more.) Thanks and enjoy ! 😃
 
My shinies !
 


 
Current hunts :

My project :
Spoiler
To stay motivated, I created this project (inspired by @WoomyNation, big up) where I chose 6 hordes in each region and 1 single encounter. The goal ? Complete this grid completely. For the moment, I don't have a specific target for the singles. But I will maybe do Shroomish for Hoenn, Route12 for Unova (no specific targets, except rapidash/tranquill) and have to see for the other.

They do not need to put effort into updating their game when they are already getting millions from people buying rp to shiny hunt

They do not need to put effort into updating their game when they are already getting millions from people buying rp to shiny hunt

It could just be stored locally, no problem. That sounds more like an excuse than a real reason.

You’d need to swipe a years average salary in America to be able to afford his hair. 

I would like to point you to @Vorred's message on the first page of this thread.

I think they recently updated the pickup rates. I have also had trouble finding silk scarfs. 

(on phone, no colour unfortunately, but it would be turquoise or a deep royal blue)
 
1. Ingame name: Zethias you can send me mail if you'd like!
 
2. Join Date: few weeks ago for game, yesterday for forum
 
3. Hours played: at least 20 hrs a week
 
4. Screenshot of your character: ...you'll see me carrying my evolved Pichu, soon to be a Raichu everywhere I go! 
 
5. Picture of yourself [Optional]: ...at bottom, taken in Gilman IL on vacation last month with my best buddy Jack (my puppy)
 
6. Country where you live: United States (Illinois)
 
7. The theme tune to a movie about your life would be: Tough. Went from Metallica's Cyanide, to varying songs of Alice in Chains, but I just heard "The New Sound" a few months ago from a new band called "Black Motor Chimps", the song is called "Gravity of Tone". 
 
 
8. Your autobiography would be called: I'm actually getting my books published soon, but my autobiography ones are actually cut into a decade for each book, so my autobiography is a series, and it's called "Zethpire" Vols. 1 and 2 are being published soon, the 3rd vol. will be out in a few years. I also have a poetry book and two history books being published, and 2 sociology books in planning stages.
 
9. Current occupation: Truck Driver, also the Owner of Game Master and the Illinois Homeless Charity. I'm also an unpublished author, about to be a published author.
 
10. Sweet or Salt Popcorn: this one's a complex question. Growing up it's always been salted buttered, until my Grandma Loeva took me to see Pokemon 2000 when I was 9, I ate so much buttered popcorn I didn't eat buttered salted popcorn for years after, and switched to sweet Kettle popcorn my Grandma introduced me to. However, I recently went to see the Sonic movie at a Cinamark theater a few months back and asked for Kettle popcorn, but it was carmalized and very sweet, and wasn't what I was expecting. It was Christmas popcorn in other words, which I only delve into on Christmas. Since Pokemon 2000 I prefer a bag of store bought Kettlecorn such as Act II for example. But if it's in a theater, they don't have that kind of popcorn, and I'm not eating super sweet Christmas popcorn, so it's salted butter at the theaters, but I prefer Act II Kettle Corn ever since getting sick on salted butter popcorn when I saw Pokemon 2000 in theaters years ago.
 
11. Your super hero power would be: Shape shifting (wherewolf)
 
12. Favourite and Least Favourite Pokemon: That's a tough one. Least favourite is Magikarp...I'd lean towards an Uber for favourite, but Deoxys has so many forms and is the Hoenn equivalent of Mewtwo, and the only other Ubers without counterparts are Arceus and Rayquaza. Arceus' power was tested a decade ago against Giratina and also Darkrai and was no match, plus it's power alters with different plates, so I'd have to say Rayquaza is my favourite. Rayquaza is the only Uber without a counterpart or the function to alter forms and abilities, has extreme speed, high stats, cool look, and I don't believe any Pokemon can match Rayquaza in power provided he has the right moveset. Rayquaza is more powerful than the God-Pokemon Arceus', and any others. No Pokemon can match Rayquaza!
Favourite Movie: Funny, because it's actually Pokemon 2000. 
 
13. Your favourite TV show as a kid was: Tough one. I can name a whole bunch I loved. If I had to pick one out of everything I loved, it would probably be Pokemon.
 
14. Last meal you ate was: Chef Boyardee Speghetti and meatballs with bakery bread. About to eat some more here in a second and hop back on PokeMMO
 
Comments: 
I'm interested in meeting new people and making friends through both PokeMMO and the forums here. Profile doesn't have a FB option, and I think it's a good safety feature for everyone to get to know each other through the PokeMMO mailing system before going to social media, email, and phone. My in-game username is Zethias, fell free to send me an Ingame letter and check out my profile here! I'm more than happy to get to know someone through email and Facebook after we've had some good interactions in-game, so send me a letter and I'll reply! Thanks.

Suggested the addition of IV bottlecaps, which is an actual item on the newer generations, multiple times, probably more than a dozen times now, they dont care, but we try

Wishing stone use will be the ability to purchase a limited vanity for 1.5k RP, this is the Pokemmo way.

Can’t be shiny locked because shiny locks were only introduced in gen 5..

I'd like to play with friends but everytime we log in together we just do our own personal thing since there is nothing to do together.
 
So I thought of a few ideas to make Pokemmo feel like a MMO.
 
- Party bonuses : Teaming up with friends or strangers should give us bonuses. Like more exp in random battles, encounters with better IVs and even better chances at shinies (as long as you are on the same map). "But there are charms already" yeah but they are expensive so they should be extra bonuses to add on top of the already existing bonus. This would make it viable to just team up with friends to do anything. Imagine you want to hunt a specific pokemon and you see other players on that grass patch. You could ask them "wanna team up" and you would benefit from thoses bonuses. Just like in any mmorpg. 
 
- 2v2/3v3 PVE and PVP : Make a team and take on NPCs or other players in co-op battles. There could even be a ranked mode. 
 
- 1* and 2* raids : Raids are really cool but they are so hard that only top players with super strong teams can do them. There should be different difficulties for everyone so you could team up with lower level players.
 
- Safari park challenges : Just like the national park contest in GSC. Every x hours, one of the safari park host a contest. Gather some friends/strangers and get in the park together. The team with the best pokemons (rarity / IV) gets a reward. I like this idea because it's really available for everyone since you dont need to buy balls and you dont need a strong catching pokemon. Everybody (even a noob) can join in on the fun.
 
- 2v2 gym/elite4 reruns : Take on the best NPCs in the game with a friend. 
 
I think this is what is missing in this game. For example, I have 400+ hours in the game, finished all regions, some PVP ready pokemons and other stuff but I have NOTHING to do with my casual friends. 
 
We need more ways of casualy playing with our friends. Not everything cool in the game should be ONLY for high level players.

Now that we are getting close to war, a lot of us have started prepping again, and I have gotten a lot of player insights. We have talked to the Chinese players and a lot of other players and the conclusion from the top players is that they wont be participating unless the first place vanity changes. The first place team says they'd have  no reason to play again and a lot of the 2nd-3rd place players say playing this hard for a month just to potentially add sparkles to their wings isn't worth it. Now, I know staff doesn't want last years wings to become exclusive and I don't either, however to preserve the competitiveness of the war over time I think it is extremely important to incentivize the top players playing year after year. What I am proposing is a rotation system similar to PvP season rewards, where there are 4 vanities that are rotated through each year, giving top players a lot of incentive to play each year, until they get all 4 vanities/sparkling versions. I know making a vanity is a lot of work, but I think it is well worth it, not even considering the financial incentive of the game to keep top players invested. I just want the war to reach its full potential each year and I think this is the best way to make it happen. I know you guys are going to do a lot to make this war even better than the last one, which is why I'd hate to see it underplayed because the prize doesn't change. I AM BEGGING!

I, subzi , would like to represent USA as captain for World Cup 7. I consent that WC staff can confirm that I come from USA. And my discord is subziii.
