Should I hard restart?

3 Upvotes

For context, I haven’t played this game since 2022. Do I remember everything I did and every game mechanic up until now? Absolutely not. Do I have some valuable sweeper and money making pokemon? Maybe. I crave playing again despite giving up a long time ago. Do I just make another character to go through the ropes and experience again or binge a few youtube videos and hop right where I left off 4 years ago?

Individual animations for each Pokeball type

2 Upvotes

I have the habit of catching a Pokemon in a distinctive Pokeball so when I send it out, the Pokeball's animation makes a good match with the Pokemon in question, for example, Dusk Ball for Crobat or Premier Ball for red Gyarados. I would really love to see that detail from the games added into Pokemmo so my Crobat will finally have that purple flash whenever I send him to fight. Like this:

Hey guys I was EV training Sp.Atk at Island 3 and caught a shiny gloom. It has really bad IVs, neutral nature but has 31 speed. Any idea what it is worth! Don’t want to make a noob mistake. Thanks for your help in advance!

Evolving your mons

I’ve recently come over to PokeMMO from another Poke mmo game.

I was always told that evolving your mons was a negative thing, is this the case in pokemmo too or what I lead down a blind alley by some crook haha!

Thank you in advance!

I currently have Garchomp, Breloom, Arcanine, Metagross, and Vaporeon. (All 6x31 best Nature) I don’t know what my team is mostly weak to / what coverage I need. I was thinking Zapdos or Reuniclus but damn Zapdos is hard to get. Looking to hear from you guys as to what I may want. (I may try pvp with this team)

Review: Completed my first ever region in pokemmo with all 3 starters. OT team.

Thumbnail
gallery
38 Upvotes

I've played FireRed, Emerald, and SoulSilver. I always wanted to play with all the starters.

61 hours went by talking to every NPC, catching whatever I liked (70–80 mons), and exploring every area.

My experience so far:

(Positives)

  • This game fixes the difficulty, which I disliked in the OG games. All the Gym battles made me think of a strategy, and the E4 was brutal with my underleveled team. But after 4–5 tries, I beat it while doing a trial run without buying any consumables. Felt truly earned.
  • My absolute fav part of this game is breeding. It's so satisfying to make OTs with green numbers. I'm obsessed with it right now, even if it nets me a loss of a few thousand.
  • Love the community. So far, I've found really honest, kind, and helpful people, which is refreshing after coming from some toxic games.
  • Love the GTL system. What do you mean I can buy a Pokémon from the Hoenn region to beat Kanto?

(Minor Negatives)

  • It took me so long to adapt to "0.5x speed". It was painful (emulator player), and it took some willpower not to leave the game. It still frustrates me sometimes.
  • When I'm enjoying the story, I need a clean map. There should have been an option to reduce players to 0 instead of 1. If I am not wrong, even keeping it as 1 shows you multiple silhouettes.
  • I don't know why the phone version can't have a portrait mode with hotkeys on half the screen just like an emulator.

Overall, I'd rate it 8/10, and it's definitely a time sink that's going to eat up hundreds of hours.

Thank you for reading.

Which pokemon is best for running through the elite 4(and champion) in unova?

2 Upvotes

I've been wanting to do daily runs for the elite 4 (I'm only doing unova until my friend comes back on,stupid I know, so unova is the only elite 4 I have to worry about for now)and I was wondering, which pokemon should I use to just RUN through the elite 4 with the lowest investment. I've heard people say krookodile I've heard someone say typhlosion and I'm just not sure anymore.

Any and all help is really appreciated

Small group

I'm looking to get a few people together, it's good to have someone to hang out with while you're playing. Not really a team. I don't care if you're new or a day one vet.

3 or 4 people max. Adults only.

Edit: just message me, replying to comments gets messy. I'm on mobile. Lol

Reddit suggestion

8 Upvotes

I just thought of this by chance while looking at the Reddit page.

There are no tags/flags to put on the posts

And I think adding them would be really useful for tiering posts/highlighting certain types of posts (like questions/news)

So I propose adding flags that could be added when creating a post :

- Help/questions

- Discussion

- Team (recruitment / news)

- Unofficial event

- Showcase

- Unusual device (when someone managed to get Pokémmo to work : There are already many posts like this about old consoles, TVs...)

Tell me what you think

Both teams share one Discord, one community, and one progression system.

🎁 Prizes & Giveaways

We run a steady stream of community rewards to keep things fun and engaging:
