Hi guys, we have decided to do a small change to boost a bit the catch system, from now on you will gain a small extra chance to catch a pokemon based on how many balls you have used on that pokemon, so it will be:

pokemon base chance * ball multiplier + extra chance (based on balls of that type used on this pokemon)

Notes:

  • Tthe extra chance will have a limit cap of 0.5%
  • The extra chance will reset to 0 once you catch the pokemon.
  • The balls you already used will count for the extra chance.


The extra chance will be displayed on the "balls used" message, like this:

Code:
07:07 Used 2 pokeballs[0.0002%], 286 ultra balls[0.1144%] on Lapras.
07:07 Used 2 pokeballs[0.0002%], 287 ultra balls[0.1148%] on Lapras.
07:07 Used 2 pokeballs[0.0002%], 288 ultra balls[0.1152%] on Lapras.

Keep in mind the number between [x] is just the extra chance, is not the final chance you have to catch the pokemon.

This feature will be live after monday's reset.

------------------------

Edit; Forgot to mention this wont be avaliable for the following pokemons:

Code:
red gyarados, aerodactyl, elder charizard, crystal onix, big snorlax


Monday's reset

This feature is now on live servers, but there been small changes:

  • The max extra chance for cloned pokemons have been reduced to 0.25%
  • The extra chance rates for all balls been reduced to half.
New values:

  • Pokeball -> 0,00005 each ball, pokeballs needed for max chance 20k
  • Great Pokeball -> 0,0001 each ball, pokeballs needed for max chance 10k
  • Super Pokeball -> 0,00015 each ball, pokeballs needed for max chance 6667 ~
  • Ultra pokeball -> 0,0002 each ball, pokeballs needed for max chance 5k

Great job! :D

Guys i wanna suggest idea for this...
Well if you forgeth on which pokes you trow high amount of balls it would be nice to have this system on pa offical page

http://46.105.24.210/showthread.php?25814-Catched-Pokemons

It would be usefull to know on which pokes to go try catch with new system,also can show what pokes people caught and
also it looks nice :)

What you think?

That would be a really heavy query to load every time a character is searched :p would kill the CPU, ingame command wouldnt be a big deal tho

Why aerodactyl, as far as i know he has same catch rate as lapras and skarmory, also, he isn't legendary poke or something, so why?
Because we don't want milion aerodactyls on both servers.
About lappy and Skarm, look how many ppl have those pokes and how many ppl have aeros... -.-

Tbh Disagree. Why? 2.5k ub and we got 1% to catch Lapras? Its funny. Everybody will have Lapras and just Crystal Onix, Aerodactyl, Hoenn pokes, Red Gya etc. will rare pokes. I know peoples who have 20+ k ub on Lapras. I know, they got 1% but came somebody and throw fast 2.5k ub and will catch it. It's stupid. It should still hard for catch. Ps. sorry for my bad English
