I'm not Patrick (obviously) but I could give you an answer. If you have joined the server before you went on a haitus and know you haven't done anything to warrant a ban (eg. breaking discord tos or the server's rules), you are not banned. If you think you may have broken a rule/ don't know if you have, you can try to join the server. If it turns out you are banned, you can not join the server again, even on an alt account. If your Vortex account has been banned and you decide to join the Discord server, I don't know if you will be banned because of this but on the server, the only way for someone to know your ign is for you to actually tell them, so unless whatever you did to get banned was very bad to the point where staff needed to block your access to the game entirely, I doubt you are banned (again, I don't know for sure- I've not been banned, nor do I know of anyone who has) Hope this helps!

Short answer: To have the ability for legendaries to spawn in the world, you only have to beat the gyms, not the elite four and champion (but you can still do them nonetheless). Long Answer:As you may or may not have noticed, if you go on your profile, at the bottom of the page there are something called "Legendary Pokemon Unlocks" and each ribbon unlocked means you can encounter legendaries native to that region. For example, if you only have the Kanto Ribbon unlocked, you can only encounter Moltres, Zapdos, Articuno, Mew and Mewtwo in the world. If you also unlock the Johto Ribbon, you can encounter all the Kanto legendaries and also the Johto ones, and so on. (I think Mythicals are unlocked this way as well) To unlock a specific ribbon, you have to defeat the gyms associated with that ribbon's region. If you want to unlock the Kanto Ribbon, you have to fight and win all eight gym badges for that region. You can fight all Kanto-Alola (Alola does not have gyms but it does have Trial Captains and Kahunas, and you need to defeat them all to get the badge) gyms by going to Battle->Battle in a Gym->then use the headers provided to fight. To access the Galar gyms you have to find them on the map, rather than using the menu. After doing that its just a matter of getting lucky and finding a legendary in the world since they're pretty rare. I hope this helps and I am more than happy to provide you with more information if needed!

In response to your questions: 1. The exact percentage of the spawn rate of an Ultra Beast is not known to the public, however they are much rarer than legendaries, so the percentage is probably going into a tiny decimal. I think every Ultra beast has the same chance of spawning though (for example, you have the same odds of encountering a Poipole as you do for a Buzzwole), but that is just my personal opinion- I don't know if that's verified. Your best chance of hunting Poipole is to just grind. 2. As far as I'm aware, Beast Balls have a 100% catch rate for Ultra Beasts. In addition, you can only catch Ultra Beasts in Beast Balls. Using the Beast Ball on a normal Pokemon will have a 0% chance.

I think you can get Meltan Candy from doing the quiz on Discord, saving up coins and eventually buying it but I don't know how much it is. Judging by the amounts people put it up for, you might have to grind a bit to get some (you need 50 or something to evolve Meltan). I'm not entirely too sure on that though. Your other option would be Pokebay and even though it's a lot of money, there are ways to grind and get the money required, such as catching a team of level 6 Pokemon with an immunity to another type (catching a ghost type for example because theyre immune to normal) and using a training account.

IGN: CandyCotton Favourite Pokemon game: Pokemon Crystal/SoulSilver. Crystal was the first Pokemon game I ever played and I found it on the google play store as an app (I didn't, ad still don't, own a console that can play any Pokemon game so I stick to emulators lol). I found the game really fun, picked Cyndaquil as my starter, and beat the game despite most of my team being weak to Lance, and not knowing that Thunderpunch was not very effective on Dragonite. Soulsilver is a close second because it's a remake of the gen 2 games and nothing changed much apart from adding some gen 3 Pokemon and improved visuals.

They are both up on my trade now so offer when you can! IGN: CandyCotton

Hi, I have offers for your Shiny Ralts and Mystic Golbat (I can level up my offered Pokemon if you want, or if you don't want these you can look at my owned Pokemon yourself): Shiny Ralts- Shiny Beldum Mystic Golbat: Mystic Mr. Mime

As far as I am aware, no you won't. You can only be the original trainer of someone else's Pokemon if you got in via promo code from Pokebay, won the auction and opened it. The ??? on the OT happens whenever you put a Pokemon on auction- the Pokemon is removed from your owned Pokemon (probably to prevent hackers or something idk) and the game probably doesn't register the OT when it's in an auction. However, when you do get the Pokemon, the OT and owner is updated to show you as the owner and the previous trainer (if not brought in a promo code otherwise you are displayed as the OT).

I'm assuming you mean the routes/other areas where Legendary pokemon are found, in which case I can happily help you (All information found on the vortex wiki, I'll just do the routes but legendaries can be found in caves and other outdoor areas, you'll just have to check that out yourself) Route 1- Type Null (Day), Arceus (Night) Route 2- Mew (Day), Darkrai (Night) Route 3- Tornadus (Day), Uxie (Night) Route 4- Mespirit (Day), Cresselia (Night) Route 6- Dratinire Route 7- Landorus (Day), Zygarde (Night), Suicune (In water, Day) Route 8- Heatran (Day), Reshiram (Night), Tapu Fini (In water, Night) Route 9- Ho-oh (Day), Giratina (Night) Route 10- Kubfu (Day), Entei (Night) Route 11- Coballion (Day), Registeel (Night) Route 12- Meltan (Day), Yveltal (Night) Route 13- Thunderus (Day), Dratinilic (Night) Route 14- Kyurem (Day), Regice (Night) Route 15- Articuno (Day), Dratinice (Night) Route 16- Tapu Koko (Day), Darkrown (Night) Route 17- Celebi (Day), Genesect (Night) Route 18- Virizion (Day), Raikou (Night) Route 19- Tapu Lele (Day), Zekrom (Night) Route 20- Latias (Day), Latios (Night) Route 21- Zamazenta (Day), Rayquaza (Night) Route 22- Diancie (Day), Deoxys (Night) Route 23- Xerneas (Active form, Day), Jirachi (Night) Route 24- Tapu Bulu (Day), Zacian (Night), Enamorus (In water, Day) Route 25- Kyogre (Day)

I agree, its often annoying when i'm grinding exp and the attack button moves. When I play on my laptop, the button often stays in the same spot unless if its a critical hit. When I play on my phone however, it can get very annoying because after every attack I have to scroll down (Which happens dozens of times per battle, especially when i'm grinding for PDs). Maybe the button could be moved to a lower position on the page, so when critical hits land, it won't alter the position of the button. Or the text could be smaller (but that's not really a good idea)
