swetsharon Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Hello Patrick and Staff, Thank you for the Arceus (fighting) event which many of us were anticipating. However, unlike other map events, this one is certainly different as it involves us to do multiple battles and there is no info about the number of battles that an individual needs to do to get a plate. After asking some people on discord about it and on an average most of the folk received their first fist plate within their 200 battle count. And there are also people who haven't got a SINGLE plate despite doing 600 + or 700 + battles (Me being one of those UNLUCKY people). Staff is ruling out to be our so called "bad luck" and making fun of our accounts being haxed which we all know isn't true and it is however not helping us with the cause. However, could you please ensure that at least the first plate drop rate is within a set battle number so that we dont feel all dejected and lose hopes to continue forward whereas others just mock us for being losers, as we are working as hard as the other players in the game. This isn't a map event where people tell us that we might've walked past a pokemon due to clicking way too fast. There is a proof of each person doing a substantial amount of battles in the hopes of getting what they want. This post might look like I am venting or complaining, but if you could look into it and see if something could be done well I would appreciate that and so does other players who still haven't lost their hopes of finding their first fist plate despite nearing their 1000th battle. Sorry to make this post huge. Thanks. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKim Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I could say that i'm the unluckiest off all. So far i've done 802 battles, (500 regular) and 302 CB without getting a single plate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auke1993 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Fist Plates exists, and if they would be obtained too quickly then there'd be too many Arceus (Fighting). That'devaluate them quite a lot, and I don't think Patrick wants that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its kinda unfair... atleast for the 1st fist plate. FYI I am nearly at 800 battle and found nothing, not many people are in my shoes right now, so they wouldn't understand. I have already seen people flaunting a set whereas some of us are struggling just for one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
porymon Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Well I disagree. I got my first fist plate within 10 battles however it took me 120 battles to get my second one. If you claim to have done 600+ battles and not have received a fist plate, then you certainly have bad luck. As Auke said if they were easier the arceus form would lose it's value. If the palte were to be received after a certain amount of battles then all the fun would be taken out of it and would make it another version of the previous arceus events which required you to grind on SQs . If you've lost all hope for this event , then I suppose you could wait until Patrick releases them through mystery boxes (Considering there are really few of em by the end of the event and Patrick decides to "fix the trade and auction economy". ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edenshade Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Well, i nearly done 1k battles and still nothing. I tried clan battles, gyms, computer controlled players, even training accounts to grind but here i am with 0 plates. And i battled with a guy who has 4 forms of arceus(fighting); shiny mystic shadow and normal. So i think there is a weird odd for players idk, there are already bunch of arceus(fighting) and some players own like 4 at the same time while others don't have one. Edit: After sending this, i tried to battle with players on maps. 3 or 4 battles and i got fist plate. I'm not sure it's a coincidence or not but give it a try Edited May 23, 2019 by edenshade Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
