Damn it. Surprise ruined. Pokemon board game.

Your parasitic hobo has finally taken complete control?
I'm sure that's a possibility some day, but I meant finding Jigglypuff, who looks a lot like I do 
Yup, I've caught myself a Squidley too. Still looking for a Hoothoot or Noctowl, though.I'm sure that's a possibility some day, but I meant finding Jigglypuff, who looks a lot like I do
The real owls are screaming right outside our window now. Freaking the cats out as we speak
Well, sure. They didn't expect the Uprising Order to actually come through anytime soon.Freaking the cats out as we speak
@Dave I want to be lazy and not track what I have or don't have. Can you ask the developer if they'd add something to the "Catch Pokemon" boxes at the top of each thread that indicates whether I've caught that pokemon before?I'm not so interested in catching the most as I am in filling out my pokedex.
That kind of support will not lend itself to *keeping* it installed.
So, just a question that's semi-related: how do the credits work?
Daily activity -> +15. Ok, that makes sense.
Post -> anywhere from 5 to 10. Ok, that pakes sense.
Post - > minus what you just got. Except...I Haven't deleted a single post so far and seen this several times. Is it because I edit? Or post too fast? Or they aren't long enough?
Post Rate -> 1. Ok
Post Rate -> -1. Ok, I often misclick (stupid mobile grumble grumble tiny icons) and undo a rating....But then I don't get one when I re-rate the same post differently?

Tracks the post count proportion pretty closely.I just do what I always do and I've got roughly twice the HB of anyone else

I acquired a Hoothoot just a few minutes ago.

Good news, everyone! I just heard from the dev. This means that things ARE being worked on. In fact, one big issue has been fixed.
You can now use HB to buy Pokeballs. Right now, there's only 1 package you can buy and it costs 50 HB (actually it says $50, but that's only because I haven't been able to find in the system where he's hidden the "$" in the phrases).
So what are the next steps? Well, the next steps are to dramatically lower the catch rate for the Pokemon. A lot of them will be at 0% so you won't be able to catch them at ALL without a Pokeball. Some you still will, but not a lot. It'll be largely based on who or what they are, their speed, etc. These changes will be coming slowly and once done I'll let you know. I'm hoping specialized Pokeballs will be coming soon. I can't see that it would be too difficult for him to program in, but considering his level of responsiveness I'm happy to have gotten this far!

Added and will be adding more packages, including the ability to buy Normal balls, Greatballs, Ultraballs, & Masterballs.
The prices are:
The prices are:
- Normal - 5 HB each
- Great - 25 HB each
- Ultra - 100 HB each
- Master - 250 HB each
It appears it performs the check to see if you caught the pokemon before it performs the check to see if you've already caught one recently. So you might get several "Fail catch" messages then a "You have to wait x seconds" rather than seeing a "you have to wait" each time.
In other words, if you see the "you have to wait" message, you caught the pokemon, but the game made you let it go because you already caught one in the last 30 seconds.

Well, now that I'm getting rid of the high catch rates, I think I can remove the wait message since you'll probably be paying HB for the Pokeballs anyway.[DOUBLEPOST=1502220700,1502220663][/DOUBLEPOST]
There's a couple more updates I want to make like special locations and appearance % changes before I'll do that.
You're going to set my babies free? Noooooo.
I'm thinking about stuffing them all into pokeballs and smuggling them out of this pokemill.
Over to your pokemill?
Well, yeah... how else am I going to farm pokedust?
But useless. Blew through a stack of 25 and got a big fat nothing. Who is going to spend halbucks on something with a 95% failure rate?
