KaynineXL Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 Amazing guide. Simply AMAZING! I have some questions, With amulet coin, I have it on Persian with Payday. Does the Amulet coin work without using pay day? How to you know it works? It doesn't say "you got XX coins from Amulet Coin" Does it "activate" only if the first pokemon in party has it or in battle too? Thanks. Amulet Coin gives you more cash only when fighting against NPC trainers. So it doesn't give you extra cash when Paydaying. There is no notice to show you its working. I think as long as the Pokemon that you use to beat the trainer has Amulet coin, you will get extra cash. If not that, it could also be that if your party leader has an Amulet Coin you will receive the extra money. Link to comment

Excellent guide too! I'll defiantly use the Island run. Edited March 11, 2016 by AppleJacks KaynineXL 1 Link to comment

hihats Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Thanks for the guide, really appreciate. How do all those activities translate to profit/hour? How long does an island run take, everstone farming, etc... I've got data on a few alt runs ive done, would be interesting to compare with other money making methods. Here are my last 4 kanto alt runs: Kanto Alt Run TIME KANTO PROFIT KANTO PROFIT /hour 8.88 1360000 153153 5.53 1481874 260200 6.13 1428447 232899 5.15 1394810 271100 id say a really relaxed alt run takes about 6 hours (including putting stuff up on GTL) and profits about 1.4mil. So thats 233k/hour average. Prices do depend alot on GTL pricing. My record run so far is 5.15 hours and 1.39 mil. I doubt i can improve that by much. My question is are we better off island farming, item farming, paydaying, ditto farming, alt running, etc... or do they all average out to the similar profit/hour, in which case, players can just do w/e and know they aren't wasting their time if the goal is making money.

That's a good question. I feel the best method to make cash is probably Island runs, Everstones or Dittos. Everstones and Dittos can vary though. I'm going to do a few 1 hour runs of these methods and calculate the profit tonight. I'l let you know ^^ edit: I used my last reserve for profits per hour. I'l see if we can work out the best.

KaynineXL Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) So I did an island run, using the efficient method. I earned $98,070 in 40 minutes to be exact. =$147,102 per hour Surprisingly, Kanto alt run is much more profitable. Edited March 13, 2016 by KaynineXL Link to comment
RysPicz Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Surprisingly, Kanto alt run is much more profitable. I'm not surprised at all. Alts were always unbeatable when it came to profit per hour Rendiz 1 Link to comment
KaynineXL Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) 1 hour of Everstone farming = 6 Everstones Probably a pretty bad run, I was expecting much more, but I went dry for a little while. 6x20k= 120k Per Hour for now. Edited March 14, 2016 by KaynineXL hihats 1 Link to comment
guigoz0rd Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hey, I was doing Island Runs and decided to register the profits. In Five Island, I noticed that Youngster Destin's reward is different. Also, there is a Swimmer in Resort Gorgeous available to battle: [spoiler] [/spoiler] Link to comment

Also, there is a Swimmer in Resort Gorgeous available to battle: [spoiler] [/spoiler] Oops, I did the first battle with that guy, then I had to rematch to check the price, but I forgot to update it. Thanks. That swimmer, can you VS Seeker him? Eitherway, the pay rate looks so poor it's not worth including. Thanks anyway. Link to comment

Vaeldras Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I'd do another check with those everstones. My average for a single everstone was 5 minutes for examples. Also Dragonite and gengar , to my experience, were the best pokes one could use. Starmies moves have tremendously long animations (special moves have longer animations in general), so i wouldn't bother using that. My movesets were: Persian: Water pulse (1hkos most steelix with bashful nature), return, slash, payday. Gengar: Shadowball (1hkos most steelix with timid nature), sludge bomb, thunderbolt, pain split. Dragonite: Surf, dragon claw, flamethrower, strength. I suggest Brave for persian/dragonite and Modest for gengar. and ofc using 2 computers at the same time is a must if one has the ways DeliZenan 1 Link to comment

I will do another 1 hour run eventually. I'v never had any problems with Starmie, and it's the Pokemon I'd use to alt run, so I have plenty of them. No point leveling up a new sweeper when I already have one xd Link to comment

KaynineXL Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 how do you keep your qagsire at lvl 30?, he wins exp everytime geodge selfdestructs. Make sure your Quagsire has Damp ability, that stops Geodudes and Gravelers from being able to selfdestruct. You can purchase an ability pill at the daycare place for for about 30k which will change your ability, unless you want to just go catch another one with damp ability. Link to comment
