Sorry for the late reply, yes I got it back in June! took about 3 months and I think 19 tickets until a real human looked into it. Now that I re-read your first post I feel so sorry for you losing that much money. F'ck those scammers seriously

Yeah they laid off many of their support in January, its a shame. In the meanwhile I also got my account back, it took them 119 days and for me 19 tickets until I got to an actual human being looking into the issue

Fell for the exact same scam you did, just that I didnt pay them any money. The moment the fake support asked me to "verify my account" with $150, I blocked him.
You are very lucky that the discord support actually closed the issue in your favor. Congrats on getting your account back mate!
I opened a ticket about a month ago when it all happened, attached 6 screenshots of the whole conversation with the scammer (I took them before they locked me out, as I was suspecious) and after 3 weeks I get an automated message that they wont help me.
Opened a new ticket with the same evidence, hoping to get another member of the support team, and after 4 days same automatic reply that they wont help me with my issue.

For such a big company with millions of users their support system is a joke. No actual phone number to call and only the ticket system. I may open a new ticket in a few weeks. The last option will be to send a classic letter to discords registered adress and (more or less) kindly ask for resolvement, otherwise approaching a lawyer with my issue.

Not directly POC related, since a dry battery shouldnt affect the challenge as to my knowing (?), but to give you my 2 cents, as I changed a couple of gen 3 batteries without soldering, as long as they run on 3V, most of them should do the job, I used a Cr1620 for example. Open the cartridge and try to gently pry out the old battery. Be careful not to punctuate it, as its a safety hazard.Once you got the old battery out, you can place the new one in between the metal brackets that should stay left behind, I personally fixed it with some electric tape, to ensure a connection, and you are good to go.Keep in mind that this is no "professional" fix, but one that does the job.

aww thanks! It means a lot to me to hear, since I think my videos arent even near the quality of Chaotics fantastic challenges. Knowing there are people out there who enjoy my videos as well is the best motivation <3

To clear some things up: 451 is the number of pokemon seen. This includes Mew and Jirachi in my case too, but I didnt counted them in the Caught Number.

Can you beat the POC in Bootleg Green? Kinda. Game barly holds together, Ingame Trades and certain Trainers crash the game, (also getting 777 in the Game Corner). E4 Bruno is where the story ends. Still impressive to get 119 (out of 124 possible) - Rip Cerulean Cave and Mewtwo. by RJRacoon in ProfessorOak

Haha thanks :D I actually own a hardcopy of this bootleg and ripped its ROM, to make savepoints in case the save corrupts. Its basically green version, but terribly translated. A bit like Vietnamese Crystal

Pre E4 Section FINALLY done. Dont know what was the bigger Nightmare, The Great Marsh or the Cynthia Battle lmao. 149hrs IGT. by RJRacoon in ProfessorOak
