To be honest I have not visit the quest and plot board thus I did not what are the like and dislike of PU community. I will make some change to the quest once i have the time. Thanks Stephen and Jerry

Ideas & Suggestions / Re: Badge Ideas

Hmmm Stephen is correct. If Titles are allowed there would really make Badges irrelevant if I am reading his post correctly. So to make Badges relevant again, we can either add a Title with the Badge, or get rid of Titles all together.

The title does not making the badges irrelevant. The gym badges is used as one main quest in the game to help the player keep track of their progress. While the title only show what someone enjoy to do or collect. A player could only a have Boulder Badge and have title of that indicate he or she have caught 50 Grass type Pokemon. Vice versa, someone could have gotten all the badge and event beat the Elite four without having any title at all.

The bonus is not set to stone. This is just ideas and brainstorming.

And so far Stephen is the only PU team member who response in this thread so we still don't know the future of title system. There might not be one all together.

Quests & Plots / [Quest] Trouble at the fishing village
« on: March 25, 2010, 01:31:35 PM »
- Quest name: Trouble of the fishing village.
- Quest location: Best locate near a lake, river, stream or sea
- Quest requirement: None (but not recommended for player with Pokemon lvl < 25)
- Quest reward: Some item and a Shiny Gyarados ( Red or any color would do)
- Quest start: Village Elder

Quest Plot:

The villager seemed trouble and none want to talk to the trainer except the Elder.
                    (or we could have they direct the player to the Elder)
                      A: This village end soon if we can't find that thieve.
                      B: I heard elder John is offering a reward for anyone who could catch the bastard.

                          or

                       Shop keeper: We have nothing to sell until elder John could catch that thieve.

* Elder John: Hey youngster what are you doing in this neck of the wood?
  Trainer: I'm a Pokemon trainer and I'm on my journey to become a Pokemon champion. I 'm just here to resupply before I venture forward.
  Elder John: Is that so? What an exciting journey you are on. But I'm afraid that our village have little to offer you. It appear that we have a thieve in the village who have stolen the supplies from all the shop around here.
  Trainer: How dreadful! Where are the local police? Have they find any clues about who the thieve might be?
  Elder : we are small remote village. The nearest police station is 2 days away! So I think we are on our own.
  Trainer: Maybe I can help!
  Elder: Really? All of us mostly a fisherman and farmer. We have no idea how to find or catch the thieve maybe you a Pokemon trainer could help!
  Trainer: I would love to just point me where the latest crime was at?
  Elder: It is the supermarket. I'll tell the shop keep to let you in their warehouse.


In the supermarket, trainer could access another room where all furniture have been wretch and the place have been flip over. The trainer look around and found some moss on the floor. Trainer asked the shop keeper about the moss.

  Trainer: Do you have a lot of moss around here?
  Shop Keeper: No there are only moss around the lake north of the village.

Back with the elder.

  Trainer: How often does the village go to the lake?
  Elder: We used to go up there all the time but ever since that Pokemon maniac show up he and the gyarados been attacking everyone who set foot on the lake... That damn Pokemon maniac is the thieve. Damn it how could I didn't think of it earlier. Well that doesn't change the situation any better. We still can't fight him anyway.
  Trainer: I could go talk to him. I'm a pokemon trainer too.
  Elder: Really? you would do that. The villagers will all be grateful If you could chase him away.


So you travel up north. when you about to touch the lake a pokemon maniac jump out.

   Maniac: Who are you? You're not one of the villager. What are you doing here?
   Trainer: I'm here on behave of the villager. Why are you stopping them from enter the lake and why are you stealing from them?
   Maniac: What I do here is justice. If you are one of them prepare for battle....
   Trainer: Wait what do you mean justice. What is justice in stealing from the weak?
   Maniac: Oh those villager are not weak. The thing they done to the Pokemon here are far worst than what I did to them.
   Trainer: What do you mean by that?
   Maniac: What do you see behind me?
   Trainer: It just a lake.
   Maniac: Just a lake huh, No just anyway lake. This used to be full with Pokemon that lived here. Now it just an empty lake all thank to the villager. Before they was just fisherman. They were friend of the lake. They take care of the lake and the lake take care of them. But ever since they signed with Crezka Corp. They been destroying the lake. Catching Pokemon by hundreds at once. Now all the left is a few magikarp and a couple gyarados.
   Trainer: I have no idea. How could they do this. I will talk to the villager.


Back at the village.
   Trainer: What are you explanation about the pokemon in the lake?
    Elder : The Crezka Corp offer us a package. They will buy all the pokemon in the lake at high price and afterward they will turn it into a vacation resort. Then our village will filled with tourists. So the villager were excited and signed with them. Now we have to obey the contract otherwise they will charged us fee that even all of our money combine could not afford.
  Trainer: You should have have told me in the first place. Maybe I could talk to the Corp for you.
  Elder: It maybe already too late. I told them about the Maniac up in the lake. They already sent some one to deal with him.
  Trainer: Oh no!


Trainer got teleport to the maniac place and found him injury.
   Maniac: The Crezka reps defeated me. Now they assaulting the Gyarados.

Trainer teleport to the Gyarados sene. Both of the seem exhausted. and in a deadlock tie.
  Rep: Hey you. You are that trainer the elder mentioned right. help us defeat these gyarados. The corp will pay you handsomely for your service.
  Gyarados: Grrrrrrrrr........


Trainer could choose to help either one. Either choice will bring up the battle screen. One against the Gyarados or the other against The Rep. They are equally difficult.


If you choose side with Crezka corp. and win, you will capture the Boss Gyarados and keep him. Along with cash reward from the Corp.
The Maniac will threw words at you then took off. The villager will happy for the increase in income.


If you choose to side with Gyarados and win, The lead gyarados will join you at free will. and he/she is carrying a water stone.
The Maniac will thanked you and say he will stay and revive the lake. The village still happy and decide to help the Maniac and turn the place into a ranch for all water pokemon. They still get tourist and make money (go figure)



Thanks for taking the time reading this post. Looking forward for everyone input and feedback.
Crossing my fingers for it being implement into the game.

Before we get carry further away. I would like to point out that. The Title was just something I throw out after Mr_Dark said the achievement only viewable on the website. None of the PU member have any response about this yet, thus I haven't give any more input into this post. However it turn out there are quite a number of player who would like to have such a system in the game the PU team might seriously reconsider this topic.

When giving title. we are not bound  to only one title per category. We could have multiple tiers and the higher the rank the more bonus one would get.

Caught 20 Grass Pokemon - Gardener - More chance to catch a grass type, 5% of Grass bonus
Caught 40 Grass Pokemon - Harvester -  Same as above - 10 % of Grass Bonus
Caught 60 Grass Pokemon - Agriculturalist  - Same as above - 15 % of Grass Bonus
ETC ...

Now the Type bonus could be different so that it will give player more variety to choose and to make their team stronger.

Grass = Increase exp rate (growing)
Fire = Increase attack (damage)
Water = Bonus HP from potion and berries (healing)
Rock/Ground = Increase defense (fortified)
Steel = increase special defense
Ghost = increase special attack
Electric = Increase change of paralyzed from any given attack (this would uber-kill everything else I just love Electric type. sorry I m very Bias lol. )
Flying = increase speed
Normal = increase in game movement speed ( idk what to give normal but able to walk faster always nice)
Poison = increase change and duration of effects i.e. poison, sleep, confused, paralyzed, etc.  on Pokemon
Bug = ????
Dark = increase money from NPC (selling and defeating trainer)
Ice = ?????
Dragon = ????
Fighting = ????

the ???? is something that i could not come up with in the time i write this post. maybe other could fill them in. Also if i left anything out please and please feel free to put them in.

Ideas & Suggestions / Re: How about trainer party?
« on: March 19, 2010, 01:42:06 AM »
the 2 v 2 system sounds good for the player.. my questions is can you battle a npc  with your own team 2 v 2 ???
and is it possible or good idea that you party wit an npc for a quest or something like that???

The original game already have this system in place I believed. So there is no doubt it will be possible here in PU

I think what he is saying is you can party with a trainer (this part is pretty clear)
And in the party instead of battling a Pokemon that would ordinarily give a single pokemon 50exp it would give the two Pokemon and their trainers 25.
In other words, distribution of exp.

Thanks for verified this info I should have make this point a little clearer.

Also I guess what I was trying to get through was. When we out there in the grass trying to lvl our Pokemon and ourselves up. Can we party up with other who also doing the same thing. And as long as you in the party no matter who defeat the wild pokemon you will get some portion of the xp as well not as mush as the trainer who defeat the pokomon. This way if we have 2-3 people in the party all concentrating on Lvl up we could speed up the process a little faster. Just like how in WoW we level faster in party than solo given that we actually killing mod.

Very nice!!!

Another question. Since we have an open world and only low Pokemon gonna be around. Then can Trainer start at any city and not just Pallet town? This will give diversity to the game and the trainer.
And PvP wont be any fun if all we have are Radicate , Pidgey, Metapod, Starter and a few more at early stage of the game.

In her opening post,  she said that the text would appear in the chat screen. Dont see anything wrong with that tbh.
In my opinion, you should start off with all of the first island's cities and towns available to you. With pokemon with a max level of around 20 in the grass between them. The areas with high level pokemon, guards etc. should be either small villages off of the beaten track, caves where you can catch high level pokemon, areas needed for quests (meaning that you have to complete certain quests in order) or possibly gyms.



Completely agree with Declan_23.
Human tend to scared of all the animal or we capture the strongest one as trophy whatever the case is. It make sense to have only lower level pokemon surround human cities. Occasionally a high level Pokemon would be nice.
The further you get from the large city the stronger the pokemon will get. We could provide small village or out post in a rest point for the player but not a large city with all modern tech. Having said that the map might have to be change drastically to fit the need of space for the higher pokemon. So i dont know if this is something the PU team would want implemented only because the date of close beta is around the corner.

What about suffix or prefix  for the achievement we got.

for example :
for someone who won 50 PvP would have their name change to : "Brawler character name "
for someone who capture all grass type will be " Gardener character name"
so on and so forth.

I think it is something could be done with admin command on the account info or the character info.

It make sense to have extra EXP when we defeat another trainer because it will be a harder foe (more prepare, organized, well rounded(sometimes) and unpredictable compare to wild Pokemons.

But the question we should focus on is how fast will this NPC be ready for another battle after being defeated?

In the original games, the NPC will remain inactive for a very very long time unless being provoke or affected by an item.
But we looking at a MMO at the moment. Every player will want to have a shot at this NPC for the extra EXP that he give. So it would not be fair if his Pokemon will be revive once a day. It also wont work out if they are revive every minute. The player who just defeat that NPC will keep on killing him until they satisfied with the level they achieved.

So In my opinion, finding the balance point for this will determined if there will be extra EXP for defeating trainer or not.

About donation!
Will the donor receive anything in return except for the game a small praise?
Most private server give out award / special privileged to encourage player to donate. Sometimes it helps the server have some extra money for upkeep and in others it just upset the balance of the server between non donate and donate player causing the non donate player to eventually quit  the game?
What are the administrators thought on this subject?

Based on the last week update we have >3500 members so I was just wondering:

How big is the server? (i.e will it fit 300, 500, 700 or 1100 players )
How many server will there be? Server Name?
Can one character move freely between servers or will stuck in just one?

Well the power level issue always come up when we talk about party or team up people. But there are solution for that. For example:

Say if the player will have their own level system:
Player whose level difference from 1-3 could slit XP 50% - 50%
Player whose level difference form 4-10 will slit XP  30% - 70% ( the lower lvl get 30%)
Player whose level difference from 11 and above get 0 % and 100%

The same could be applied for the Pokemon unless it is holding an EXP Share.

We all have a belt fill with 6 Pokemon and that is all the companionship we have? What about traveling with friends and other trainer. Since there will be a trainer lvl system maybe party up the player could lvl faster. Or certain area are only accessible with more than 1 player. Something to encourage the interaction between trainers.

Games / Re: Things about the Pokemon Games you hated
« on: March 16, 2010, 02:03:05 AM »
This is not a hate toward Pokemon games in general just feel like it missing it! All Pokemon games claimed to be RPG but they lag the big part of what make RPG fun it the side quest. The little things we could do in the between and out of the main story. Why should all trainers just go out leveled up their team. Get the badges Defeat team "...." and beat the Elite 4 then bam... game over. A couple of previous post mention Elder Scroll series. Bethesda is evil I tell ya. They make game that suck people in for hours. I m not asking to make a Pokemon as big and wide as Elder Scroll or Fall Out. Just have some random quest on a side maybe every town should have a couple some thing like A Rhyhorn/Rhydon is attacking all the pokemon in the area or there is a Rubat raid every night in the village... something just so we could do and maybe fail because we was too weak atm then we could come back later for it. a little reward would be nice. some credit. maybe a stone perhaps. That is just my hope maybe other have better input.


Anyway thanks for all the hard work that the staff did to make this all possible.

New Trainers / Welcome / Re: New trainer hangout
« on: March 16, 2010, 01:37:52 AM »
 :o Hey all! I new to Pokemon Universe and to Pokemon MMORPG in general. But I been playing Pokemon since pokemon silver and gold, and MMORPG like forever. Never though there would be a MMO for Pokemon thus never look into it. But somehow I end up here lol. just stumble upon this and would love to try it out. I been through a couple site Like Pokenet.org the graphic there is nice it seem to have a very stable engine the only problem I have was the walking. It rigged and like I'm running on a 1900 PC when I could play ME 2 on the same comp. Probably was due to server lag. So I hope the american server would help. Another one I tried out was Pokemon World online. that one look like but the registration is disabled so i havent even enter the game yet. Another was Pokemon Onlineby SvKe the server seem to overfill with players. there probably have 10+ server each with max 300 players and every server i tried to enter give the same message. "server is full and i'm queue at 160th place" that comforting.
Anyhow sorry about the long brag that the beginning. I guess My point is I a big fan of MMORPG and Pokemon to have a combination of both would be fabulous. But i quest of searching for one have been in vein so I hope this could be the ONE!

thanks all the staff and admid for bringing this to the public! you all have a wonderful day! good luck hunting!!!
