Rittz Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Hi there, I am re-Ev-training some of my farmer mons and was wondering if it is possible to calculte the exact speed stat that a pokemon needs in order to escape from a horde or any given wild encounter. I've been testing a bit with one of the toughest (I guess) hordes to escape from (Lvl 46-47 Rapidash at Unova's Rt. 12) and my pokemons with a speed stat under 200 are struggling to escape successfully. I only tried a little bit, but my Weezing with 156 Speed stat failed to run away 4 of 22 times against the Rapidash hordes. It did exactly the same as my Octillery with 133 speed stat (also 18/22). It's a bit funny considering that the maximum Speed stat a Lvl 47 wild Rapidash can have is 129. That obviously means that this mechanic doesn't work like it does in the official games, so I was wondering what is the right formula here in PokeMMO or if it only applies to hordes and not to single encounters. Thanks in advance! Rittz Link to comment
Diplomacy Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Try for around a base 250-300 to see if that helps. Rittz 1 Link to comment
XelaKebert Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Are you saying it failed only 4 times out of 22? That's just under a 20% fail rate. Something to keep in mind is that hordes count as 5 individual encounters, so I would presume that in order to escape there would be 5 run checks before you could flee. I could be wrong though.

Riesz Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I did tried Smoke ball to flee from hordes but it always failed maybe you would need a really high Speed stat Link to comment

This could be something that is at play. The mechanics I can find from the vanilla games don't mention how hordes affect the item at all. I would guess the same thing is at play here, but I can't say for sure. Link to comment
Munya Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Smoke ball does not guarantee fleeing will be successful on MMO, it increases your chance to flee by a percentage based on holder level vs wild level. Link to comment
