Pokemon Pixel Functions
Pokemon Pixel, after the initial buy of your starter, uses the currency named Shards. This essentially makes the game optionally free to play after the initial purchase with optional pay to gain options. You can get Shards from exploring, finishing quests, battles, studding, or selling Pokémon directly.

1 Shard = 100 , and 10 Shards = 1 . Keep that in mind! Send me a gift of the SB with the message "For Shards in Pokemon Pixel" and it will immediately be added to your balance once I see and receive it. For every 100 shards purchased, you will gain 10 extra shards. (110 total.) That's 1 of value right there! Again, all purchases CAN be made without paying for shards, after the initial starter, with a few exceptions.

There is a shop to buy pokeballs and healing items. Pokeballs are a direct 100/150/200 % chance - the health of a Pokemon, and a Pokemon needs health to function healthily. Pokemon Centers are a thing, but are very expensive and cost 70 Shards with each use, but fully heal and revive all party members. View the Shop and Pokemon Center below.

Exploring and Battling
To explore, fill out the following form:
Username:
Pokemon: (up to six, minimum one)

Exploring will result in me messaging you directly. You will be given one of three results- a battle, an item, or nothing. There is a 50% chance of nothing happening, a 40% chance of a battle, and a 10% chance of an item. If nothing happens, you move on. If a battle is chosen, a random opponent will be selected. If an item is given, a random item will be given to you. Battles get harder the longer you explore, items get better as well- but if you're in a battle you CANNOT FLEE.

BATTLING:

Battling is a simplified version of the games mechanics. When a pokemon begins its life (at level one) it will have 4d6 in every stat- health, attack, sp. attack, defense, sp. defense, and speed. Health will gain an extra +20 in that stat. Then, with each level it gains, it will randomly gain a new stat. Unlike in the games, pokemon do not max out in level.

Battles work with attacks going like this: (attack or special attack + moves power) subtract 2(opponents defense or special defense). The total will subtract from the targets HP.

A Pokemon that faints, if not owned by another trainer, can be caught despite it being fainted. They don't just vanish, after all.

Experience needed is 100 x level to level up. For example, a level 50 pokemon will need 5,000 experience to level up. When a pokemon faints in a battle, the Pokemon that caused it to faint will receive the Pokemon's level x 50. (A level 50 pokemon that faints will give 2500 experience).

All battles happen in our messages. All experience and health is documented as well while a fight happens, and after a battle, is updated on the post below.

Fainted pokemon cannot explore, be sold, be stud out, or be traded. Once they are revived, they can do these things again.
