Ninja-ja Update: It's almost done, Dan is just about finished with it so it will come out early next week.

First 10 people that beat the new gym level, and send me an email with some sort of proof (screen shot, or just send me your account email so I can confirm it) will get to keep one of the legendary dogs forever! 
Okay we found our winners, I will be announcing them on Monday! Thanks to all who sent in an email, also see I told you the level isn't impossible ;) I made this contest just to prove that.


Alright well it's finally here! After all the blood, sweat and tears! Let's look at what we added in this version and let's look at where you can enjoy the game.

Added on v3.3:

• The Trading Center is now open for business! - Trade your pokemon with other trainers, search for trades, and transfer your pokemon from one profile to the other. Without all that nasty duping!
• New Story Level - Vermilion Gym! - Will Joey finally know your gender? What has Brock been up to? Just how hard is that gym level? Find out this plus more!
• Increased Experience Gain! - Earn 50% more experience per kill! This will only last a week!
• Increased Shiny Encounter Rate! - 300% more of a chance to see shiny pokemon in the wild! This will only last a week!
• Player Avatars! - You can now choose an avatar from your character, play the new level to choose! More different avatars will be added later.
• Legendary Pokemon Hunt! - Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres have invaded Route 2, Route 3, Viridian Forest 2, Mt Moon 1, and Route 5. Use the help of Entei, Raikou, and Suicune to help you defeat their attack! After this week Entei, Raikou and Suicune will return to where they came from (I'm removing them from the game, enjoy it will you can :D)
• Bug Fixes! - About a million bugs squashed! Check out the previous blog for more info.

Weekly Progress! Mid-week edition.

Welcome to this week's edition of the Weekly Progress, I'm your host Sam Otero here bringing you the goods! But first a word from our sponsors!

Okay we are back on air and ready to roll. If you have read my past blogs you will know that right now I'm concentrating on security, so this week's update will be all about that. Unfortunately new content will have to wait while I make the game secure.

But just like last week I will squeeze in a new pokemon hunt along with a new achievement. The pokemon hunt and achievement will be like before the hunt will get you the non shiny version and the achievement will get you the shiny version and also like last week it will be a pokemon that you can't capture in the game currently. I will post a poll with 3 possible achievement challenges and you guys will decide what gets in the game.

Speaking of achievements, I made a change on my achievement server code. Now you can receive the achievement reward 3 times! You only have to do the achievement once for all your profiles but now you get 3 rewards instead of just one. Enjoy! Note: This works right now on v3.1.5, you don't have to wait for the new update to receive the rewards.

Also I wanted to publicly thank a good friend Haplo the owner of Haplo Rp Haven for helping me basically cut out most of the regular and shiny pokemon sprites. Thanks Haplo!

What's coming this weekend:

• Must have an online profile to play. (100%)
• Internet required to log into the profile (100%)
• Auto Saving online (100%) - The game will try to save your profile online at certain points in the game (example: After you quit or finish a level) if you are online the game will save automatically. If you don't have internet at the time the game will show a message asking you to try again or to cancel. Meaning you can play offline but if you don't save at some point and close the game all the progress you made won't be saved. So you have to be online to log in, but you can then play offline until you decide to stop. When you decide to stop go back online and trigger a save. If you are always online on the phone or computer then just play normally.
• Trading Center (Postponed for during the week)
• Transfer between profiles (Postponed for during the week)
• New pokemon for hunt and achievement (100%)
• Graphic (100%)
• Shiny Graphic (100%)
• Add this pokemon's stats to the game (100%)
• New move (1) (100%)

• New Evolution for hunt and achievement pokemon (100%)
• Graphic (100%)
• Shiny Graphic (100%)
• Add this pokemon's stats to the game (100%)

• Add Achievement (100%)
• Distribution (0%)

• Pokemon Tower Health (100%) - You will now notice a health bar on top of your towers. Right now none of the moves in the game will hit your pokemon. So this change really has no real meaning yet. In the future for "Advanced Mode" moves can hit your towers, and moves can heal your towers.
• Bug Fixes
• Making Staryu show up in the pokedex after you evolve it to Starmie (100%)
• Pressing back after selecting a level will now take you to the correct chapter (100%)
• Starmie will now learn the proper TMs (100%)
• Toxic Spikes and Stealth Rock not dissapearing (100%)
  

As always I will be updating this as I work on it during the week. Let me know what you think!
