Bestfriends

Just got a phone call from Professor Oak. He wanted me to construct a guide on Dex Info for all the pokemon currently available on PokeMMO. I am still working on the Pickup Guide (and inserting new information given to me by wonderful helpers). However, the Dex guide may help out some newer players who want to know about certain information about a pokemon before they catch it. As a note, I am going to place 6 placeholders. One for the introduction and the other 5 for the pokemon that are currently implemented from Gen 1-5.

So far, I would like to thank @Fixedgaming, @Minks, @Xigbar, @mateusvictor and @BlueNose for assisting me in the Pickup Guide documentation. The guide is still open for any volunteers that want to take a location that is yet to be documented.

(Also, since Sinnoh may come with some Dex modifications, I may want to hold off on documenting information for the guide, but the placeholders can stay). Sinnoh Hype!

Disclaimers:

Professor Oak did not call me, but I wanted to entertain people that are reading my announcement. I hope that this guide can help out a lot of people in their research for a pokemon. Also, Kyu wrote his status update while I was drafting this announcement, so I added the red text.

Good early morning, I have two announcements to make:

1. As for the PokeDex Guide, the order has been restructured from sets of 50s to sets of 25s. This is due to post restraints. So far, the information that is currently documented are as follows:

a) Starter Locations

b) Guide Key

c) Re-documenting the information collected before (Pokemon, Egg Groups, Types, Abilities and Hidden Abilities, and Wild Locations). Added Movelists throughout the week, plus information that @YIBU has collected for me for the evolution lines of Bulbasaur and the Eeveelutions.

All I have left to document are the Base Stats and the Evolution Lines of each pokemon. Hopefully, I can complete this guide without any hiccups. If more reserve posts have to be made, then I can let you know. For now, things are looking good. Hopefully, you can find the information that was collected in this guide useful for you. Looking forward to further progress in regard to the PokeDex Guide.

2. I cannot log on PokeMMO for a few days because of religious circumstances. However, I wanted to document all the information I have on me for the PokeDex Guide before I leave. As for the World Cup, I wish you all well with your event. I commend @Xigbar and @MathewMat for hosting such a large event.

Thank you for your time and a nice week.

Good early morning, I hope everyone is doing well. Evolution Trees have been documented for the PokeDex Guide. Now the only piece of information left to document are the Base Stats of the pokemon. This guide is now nearing completion.

Thank you @YIBU for your contributions to the PokeDex Guide. It is quite appreciated. This has been a project that has taken a few months to document.

Looking forward to unveiling the final product of the Dex Guide.

Thank you everyone for your patience.

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

I forgot to insert an announcement clue in my previous profile statement, so you can have two clues for what I am about to announce in my future headline video.

Clue 2: Ted Lewis the voice actor

Clue 3: This question may be interesting to answer.

Good early morning, I hope everyone is doing well. This guide has been worked on for months and the final product is about to be rolled out. Tonight, I tackled two generations and the previous night, Generation 1 has been taken care of. Now I only have Generations 4 and 5 left to document for the Base Stat totals. I have to thank @YIBU for suggesting another monitor for me to purchase. The two screen method is quite effective with working on Guides.

Thank you for your patience, the PokeDex Guide has had its ups and downs. After years of questions about certain pokemon, I decided to construct a guide about this. Hopefully, it can be quite helpful for people who would like to know about a certain pokemon before documenting it.

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

(I forgot to write clues in my other Profile Statements, so here is clue 4)

Announcement Clue For Headline Video 4: This game introduced me to Pokemon as a whole. Wouldn't it be great to take some aspects from this game and incorporate it in a PokeMMO Environment?

Good early morning, I hope everyone is doing well. Today through Saturday night, I have to take time off due to religious circumstances. Before leaving for holiday, I wanted to provide value to the community. So with the help of @Edniss documenting most of the prize amounts, I was able to construct a guide.

I hope that this guide can assist people while I am offline. Good luck with your in game endeavors.

Good early morning, today was the day that I concluded the Sinnoh Walkthrough. Thank you for everyone who joined me on my adventure. I recall an in game conference with @Terresa and we discussed the need for a Honey Tree Guide. So, I was going to construct a guide about this topic when I concluded covering the Sinnoh region.

Also, Feburary 16th - 18th, I am going to attend a wedding in real life, so I hope that the Honey Tree Guide and my Sinnoh Walkthrough videos can assist you for the time being. Once I come back on PokeMMO, I can then lay out a gameplan for Guide Renovations as well as tackling the PokeDex (PokeMMO Version) Guide head on. I hope everyone has a nice night and have a nice weekend.

Good evening everyone, I hope you're doing well. To all my followers on forums, thank you for supporting my ventures here on forums. I can't believe that there are 100 people following me at this moment. Congratulations @RysPicz for being my 100th follower!

When people follow me on forums, it gives me the feeling of responsibility to engage in productive discussions or make guides that could help out the player base as a whole (for the guides that I've worked on, feel free to check them out in my Guide Index in the About Me section of my profile). I hope that my guides or my discussions have helped you in some way in game.

As a token of my appreciation for the community's trust in me to serve, there is going to be a brief announcement in my next Headline video which I plan on launching in early June when I can listen to music again (as of the time of me writing this post, there is a religious ordnance that prohibits me from listening to music for several days). However, in my status updates, I could drop some clues as to what my announcement is going to entail:

Clue 1: 

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

Thank you for your trust in me to serve as the Eternal Mayor of PokeMMO. I enjoy contributing to the community as a whole. As for the PokeDex Guide, I can keep you updated on any developments with that project. Until then, I wish you all well with your in game endeavors.

Good evening everyone, today is the day! The PokeDex Guide has now been completed, so thank you for your patience. As an added treat, I decided to put a brief breeder list at the end. Also, the reserve posts are for futuristic reasons (dungeon locations and the like). Let's roll the credits:

Thank you:

@YIBU - Organizing the Move Lists, Wild Locations, and Evolution Trees information in a nice way.

@LeZenor - Troubleshooting during the early days of the Guide being formed.

@Teddi and @DemonicDax - Listing the Starter Locations.

@RevzSM - Listing the Icy Rock and Moss Rock Locations.

@Deviluke - Cleaned up all the extra posts that were not needed.

@SecretDjinn - Moved the PokeDex Guide to the Guide Tavern.

If you need any assistance for a Pokemon's info and you did not document that pokemon in your dex yet, then feel free to see my PokeDex Guide for your questions about a pokemon. Since I have a complete Dex at the time, there were two options for me:

1. Show it off

2. Use this moment to construct a guide that could help people new and old.

I knew what option I had to pick. Thus, the PokeDex (PokeMMO Version) was born! Perhaps, you can use this guide to complete your own in game PokeDex, find breeders, help you during a PvP match for pokemon you did not document yet, etc. Good luck with your adventure!

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

One Final Clue before my Announcement in the future Headline video: Perhaps an in game challenge can be pursued.

Good evening, I ask that people leave comments that are appropriate. Thank you for your cooperation.

On a lighter note, I just received new data for the PokeDex Guide for the Evolution Charts. Thank you @YIBU once again for providing essential data to this guide. I don't plan on logging into my "Bestfriends" account in game until the evolution charts are completely uploaded to the guide. Hopefully, this guide could help you with your in game endeavors.

- Bf

Good evening, I hope everyone is doing well. As of the time of this message, I took the necessary screenshots for the PokeDex Guide and sent them to @YIBU to be processed. While I wait for him to complete his information collection, I plan on taping a Headline video and also working on plugging in information like EV Yields and Abilities by myself. It may take some time as there are +600 Pokemon that I have to document for the guide. Thank you for your patience and I am looking forward to completing this guide for players new and old.

Good evening, I hope everyone is doing well. Currently, I completed layer 2 of my Dex Guide which was to insert the Egg Groups for all the pokemon currently implemented on PokeMMO:

The guide is not quite done yet though, I have to document its Dex information next. @YIBU has taken a key interest in assisting me with Layer 3 (which is the final layer to the guide). However, even with the assistance, it may take a while to be fully complete with this guide.

This might be one of my biggest projects, but I can see this being quite useful for people trying to find a pokemon for their Egg Group or for documentation. I hope that you can find this guide useful!

Good evening, I hope you're doing well. Just a few minutes ago, I completed my portion of the PokeDex guide which was EV Yields, Ability info, and Type info. Now, I am going to wait for @YIBU to give me the rest of the information. Once I receive the remaining information (Base Stats, Movesets, Wild Locations, and Evolution Chains), then I can work on documenting this information bit by bit.

Meanwhile, I hope that the information that I documented so far can be of use for you. As for the documentation of Hidden Abilities, I want my guide to last for a long time (although Hidden Ability information may still be useful for you to know for re-battling Gym Leaders or Elite Four members).

Thank you for your patience. I am looking forward to this guide being in a complete state.

- Bf

P.S. Added the pokemon's types in the spoilers because some people may not know them from memory.

Good evening, I just completed the ItemDex Guide! Thank you @RakuenX for letting me revamp your guide. Items serve a lot of the game's functionality. Now, I only have to document the PokeDex Guide actively. The Community Pickup Guide is a more passive project, but if you have item locations, then feel free to comment down in that post.

Thank you for your patience.

Guides mentioned in statement: 

Good morning, I hope everyone is doing well. Every year, I leave PokeMMO for 3 weeks due to a real life memorial service. Once my memorial period ends, I will still have to wait two more days because Friday and Saturday are days that I do not log on for. August 2nd is the day that I come back, but meanwhile, I released a headline video rather early and also taped all the way up to the Kanto Elite Four on my PokeMMO Pokemon Stadium YouTube channel to keep everyone entertained while I am gone.

If the update occurs while I am gone, then the update can be covered once I arrive back. I do wish the development team well with the implementation of the upcoming mechanics.

Thank you for your time and good luck with your in game endeavors.

- Bf

P.S. Once the update is implemented and I arrive back, then the process of Guide Maintenance can start.

I would like to discuss the Dex Guide before I head to bed. Due to me having to document +600 pokemon, I may log in game earlier than my usual schedule, however I plan on turning on DND for the duration of being online. This is so that I can fully concentrate on screenshoting my Dex. After I take my screenshots, then they can be forwarded to @YIBU. Once he does the necessary protocols, I can start inserting information in the PokeDex Guide.

This may be one of my biggest projects here on PokeMMO. Throughout the years, I've received questions about where a certain pokemon is or what Egg Group is a certain pokemon in. As of the time of me writing this announcement, I am halfway done with the Guide. Thank you everyone for your patience.

Time to get to work on the PokeDex Guide. Hopefully, the guide can be modernized quite soon.

I would like to thank @YIBU for your assistance.

All Wild Locations are documented! When I am available, then movelists can start being documented. @YIBU did a swell job organizing the information for me to document, so I would like to thank him for his contribution to the PokeDex Guide. As of now, I am now near halfway done with the PokeDex Guide! Feel free to see the information that is currently listed:

Finally done with my Gym Guides + Morimoto Guides! Feel free to check them out. I would like to thank my Contributors for helping me with certain details to the guides.

Kanto, Hoenn, Unova, and Morimoto

However, there is still some work for me to do. Looking forward to posting future guides!

Going to rest up tonight, but tomorrow expect some minor changes to the Gym Guides and Morimoto Guide.

Good early morning, I would like to inform you about my upcoming ventures.

Currently, I was doing some touch ups for the guides under my care. Now that I did most of the touch ups, it is now time for me to tackle the granddaddy of tough projects, the PokeDex Guide (PokeMMO Version). For now, I am working on putting up a frame for all of the pokemon that are going to be documented in the guide. I got Generations 1 through 3 done, but still have Generations 4 and 5 as well as legenderies. Once the skeleton of the guide is complete, then I can start inserting information into the guide itself. This project may take a while before it is complete as we have around 600 pokemon here on PokeMMO.

Since I am the Eternal Mayor of PokeMMO, I decided to take on an Eternal Project. This project is documenting the Community Pickup Guide. I would like to thank @KaynineXL for giving me the green light to continue the documentation for this guide. Help is always nice to have, so if you want to assist me in documenting the Pickup Locations' items, you can either comment in the guide or PM me on forums. If you assist me in telling me what items you can pickup, then you are going to be credited down in the documentation credits after the location that you helped me with.

Hopefully I can get my primary laptop back soon so I can release the update coverage and prepare for the next Headline video. Thank you for your patience.

- Bf

P.S. In the "About Me" page of my forums profile, I listed all the guides that I've worked on under "My Guide Index." The spoilers also give some guides that I did not write, but are good guides to check out.

Good evening everyone, I hope everyone is doing well. The wedding was quite a nice event and I did change my channel art on the Roy Rogers News channel since the stairs had such a nice angle for the picture.

On an important note pertaining to the recent update, I cannot release the Update Log quickly because my primary laptop is undergoing an intense cleaning (I am typing this message from my current recording laptop). There are two reasons for the maintenance.

1. Due to the feedback I've received from my YouTube comments about the "static" on my microphone. It took me some time to find out what the real culprit was. Once I found out that it was my loud fan all dusted up, the laptop had to be cleaned. How I knew was that I did a trial with my recording software by covering up the fan's vents and I noticed a decent sound difference.

2. I've also noticed that while I was working on editing my videos, the laptop was quite hot. This had me worried about the inner components melting and the like.

So far, Ryan (the computer technician) told me that he did an intense cleaning, but he has to order a new fan. It may take a few days until it is delivered, but I should get a call when my laptop is working. In the meantime, I can tape the Update Log and work on revamping the guides under my care.

Thank you for your patience.

Good evening everyone. I hope you are doing well. From July 21st until August 11th, I am going to leave PokeMMO due to an annual memorial service that is held. Also, from August 12th until the 18th of August, I will be on vacation. While I am gone, there is a Competitive Self Help video that you may be interested in watching (Once I arrive back from vacation, I could then work on the English transcript for that video).

Good evening, I am normally have some free time on Sunday, however today is not really the day. Due to the wedding coming around in just a week, I had to prepare for it. So, for a few hours, I should be able to log on Bestfriends to tape one or two more episodes of the Sinnoh Story. Once the Sinnoh Story is complete (which may or may not be after the wedding ceremony), I can then start revamping the guides that are currently on standby. Feel free to still give me Pickup Item documentation for the Communiy Pickup Guide (2nd Edition).

Thank you for your time. I hope you all have a nice evening.

- Bf

Good evening, I have a brief announcement to make. I would like to thank @KaynineXL for giving me permission to update his guide on all the moves. Due to this, I plan on working to update the Guide to All Moves aesthetically and then save room for possible Sinnoh Move Tutors if the development team implements them later.

If any guide makers would like to have me update their guides because they no longer play actively or have the interest in updating their guides, then please let me know. Before I take over your guide, there is a certain protocol that I would like to call giving "Formal Permission" meaning that I can draft a joint PM with you and Guide Tavern Moderators. Once permission is given in that joint PM, then I can start working on your guide.

Also, I like to keep my eyes peeled for any guides that may need some slight updates, so if you're a guide author, then you may receive a Forums PM from me informing you of all the changes.

Thank you everyone for your time and good luck on your in game journey.

Good evening, I hope everyone enjoyed the event that the developers hosted. Once the event concludes, then the Roy Rogers News channel can continue filming the Sinnoh Walkthrough. However, be warned, if I cover Cyrus, then it may be like a cinematic movie. What the original and the new Sinnoh Story have in common is Cyrus being the antagonist. Once the battle of Cyrus concludes, then every episode may have a certain event that may happen just to build up to the remaining two fights. I hope you all enjoy the new Sinnoh Story.

P. S. Thank you @MightyBoxer for listing the hidden items in your guide.
