[Denied]Pickup Item Table (And Finger Puppets)

[Giygas]

My suggestion is that we use a slightly modified version of the Pokemon Emerald pickup table

This is the table of items available from the pickup skill in Fire Red / Leaf Green. Also notice that all of the good items it offers (Hidden Power TM, Rare Candies, PP Up) are all available at any level. This means that anybody could catch 6 meowth and immediately farm rare candies, Hidden Power TMs, and PP Up.

Notice that it is full of berries. Rare Candies, Hidden Power, and PP up are basically the only useful items on there, as there is already a berry salesman implemented in the game.

THIS is the pickup table from pokemon Emerald.

Major Differences:

1) No berries

2) Wider variety of items

3) The items received vary based on the level of your pokemon.

The variation by level means that somebody has to put time and effort into raising their pokemon in order to get the full benefits of the ability.

I mentioned at the top of the thread that it should be a slightly modified version of the Emerald pickup table. What would I like modified about it? Hidden Power. If you notice, Hidden Power TM is missing from the Pokemon Emerald pickup table.

If anything, the White Herb should be replaced by Hidden Power. This keeps it semi-rare while still being accessible to mid-level trainers.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

Suggestion 2: (Atuan's) An icon on the party bar indicating which pokemon are holding items.

Suggestion 3: The confirmation for removing an item from a pokemon should be removed. There are no negative consequences, and once pickup is implemented it will only serve to be a nuisance.

Emerald pickup table > FR/LG pickup table.

Yes.

[Chuckie]

randomize that shit

[Giygas]

Emerald pickup table > FR/LG pickup table.

Yes.

I especially like that it adds a renewable TM source for three of the most commonly used TMs: Earthquake, Hidden Power, and Focus Punch.

I'd suggest a scaling chart resembling Emerald but catered specifically to PokeMMO. I'm glad you made this post, as I was right about to.

Drop: Revives, Elixirs, Super Potions etc.

Make the 91-100 (Or just 100) tier something like this:

30% Ultra Ball

10% Rare Candy, Random Vitamin

5% PP UP, Nugget (Equivalent of 5 vitamins, basically)

3% Max Revive, Max Elixir (Nonrenewable otherwise)

1% False Swipe (level 11-30), Hidden Power (level 31-50), Rest (level 51-70), Focus Punch (level 71-90), Earthquake (91-100), Leftovers (81-100)

I realize False Swipe isn't a TM, but it is in the future generations and is a currently implemented and very useful, non-competitive move. I see no reason not to implement it, as it won't change the meta game and won't mess with the current or future TM list.

Rest (level 51-70)

Yeah, I had been wanting to for a few weeks, but I din't bother since pickup wasn't even being worked on. I felt now was a more appropriate time for it.

And I definitely agree with having some sort of 'PokeMMO exclusive" table. I do't have many ideas how to change it, though. Except for thinking that Rare Candy should stay as 5% until level 80-100 or so.

Now that we have a thread going, I think its more and more likely the FRLG table will be tossed out.

[Giygas]

First can we discuss how you look like this guy?

OKAY BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS:

The only thing I wonder is if we could also include the suggestion (I think it might have been yours, actually) where there is a "held item" icon on the pokemon in your party like there is in the actual games. That way when we're farming items we don't have to check all 5/6 pokemon after every battle.

EDIT: New suggestion!

Remove the confirmation window when removing a held item from a pokemon. It's going to get reeeeeeeeeally annoying once we start farming items on several pokemon at a time.

[Atuan]

I do not look like Mathew Parkman, but I would love to have his super power.

I agree with both suggestions (the former being mine). Removing items shouldn't have a confirmation since there's no risk.

[Giygas]

You have to imagine you're only seeing yourself in a tiny thumbnail.

I'm going to add the secondary and tertiary suggestions to the OP, even though you already have a thread for yours.

[Anzhelika]

Hey fuck you man I want free berries.

FR table is best table.

[Atuan]

You just don't want to level Meowth -.-

[Anzhelika]

Got a problem with that buddy?

[Atuan]

Only if it means more berries in my bags. If we keep the table static, then drop berries still.

[Anzhelika]

No i seriously want the berries.

[WolfSpirit]

No i seriously want the berries.

I say set up a berry fund.

On topic... I like this idea.... have nothing to add to it though. lol

[Tokxilchaosz]

No i seriously want the berries.

Pretty sure I saw somewhere that Berry Pots will be implemented. So there ya go.

[Atuan]

Bumping this because I'm going to make a beast item table in MS Paint and I want more discussion.

[Strych]

Agree with this 100% Giyg

[SkyLaMista]

I hope this game has lots of different items you can hunt through catching monsters, and some challenging ones to so this game actually has something rare then a 5% lucky egg drop lol

well... it's all probably very long process to code anyway.

[ShinyAmpharos]

I like this idea a lot, but leveling a lot of meowths is goin to be a pain <_<

[Dumuzid]

I like this idea a lot, but leveling a lot of meowths is goin to be a pain <_<

That's how it should be. If you want the benefits, work towards them!

I like this idea a lot.

[Skywish]

Good thread and ideas, specially the party bar indicating which pokemon are holding items. The variation by level will also make it something to work for which makes this even better.

My Meowth army will soon™ rise.

[Atuan]

Yes, yes, but let's discuss the pickup table itself :3
