Welcome to CCShinx's Tips on

How To Make PD!!






Just a few rules before we start:

Show hidden content
1. I know that some of you will complain about the whole point of Pokeheroes is to have fun and stuff. Obviously I know that, but this is just for people that want to learn how to make some money on here.

2. None of these tips are completely guaranteed to work, these are just what work for me.

3. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask. You can post a question on this thread, or if it's more private, you can PP or PM me. (If I don't answer it within a day or two, just send a PP or PM and let me know :D)

4. Don't expect to become a millionaire over night. Most of these tips will take a while to learn and master.

5. This sort of goes with Rule 1, but if I see anyone criticizing me or anyone else that may use these tips, I will immediately block you, and depending on how bad you are, possibly report you for harassment.

6. Have fun. Remember that this is a friendly game, and if someone snipes an auction off you or something, remember that this is just a game, and don't go crazy.

*NEW* 7. Rereading this a year and a half later, I realized that I didn't account for possible inflation/deflation, so don't expect these prices to be completely accurate! (I have updated some small stuff, but things and prices are always subject to change, so don't expect everything to be 100% accurate)




Now that that's over, let's get right into it! These tips should help you make PD whether you're just starting out or if you've already got eight dittos and three years of premium saved up!







Tip #1: Buy Low, Sell High

Show hidden content
You've probably heard this saying before, and this is probably the most obvious tip on this list. Depending on what you do this on, you could make anywhere from 10k PD to millions of PD per attempt. An easy way to start is by going to the Auction House or GTS and buying an event for around 2k or less. Depending on the event, you will probably be able to sell it for 5-10k. You can probably also find a cheap shiny for 5-10k and resell that for at least 15-20k. The more you do this and the more money you have, the bigger things you can do this with. For example, while I'm making this, there is a Shiny Mega-able Magikarp in the Auction House going for 6 mil, which I can later sell for probably 5 or 6k nuggets, making between a 1.5 mil and 3 mil profit. (Also, I would not recommend selling shiny megas on Auction House, you'll almost never get what they're worth for them, but that's a later tip)



Tip #2: Make Lots of Friends

Show hidden content
This won't only help you make money, it will help you in all sorts of ways. If you need an egg to hatch quickly, just put out a feed asking for an interaction exchange or giving a link to an egg. Also, if you need anything, you can usually just put out a feed and someone will have what you're looking for. Same with if you're trying to sell something, someone will probably buy it. Some people also make special deals for friends. For example, if I'm looking for a specific mon, whether it be for Dex completion or something else, I may offer 5k in the GTS, but may also post a feed and give 10k to friends if they have it!



Tip #3: Get Your Hands on New Events

Show hidden content
If you are awake during reset and a few hours after, you can usually get a new event very quickly. If you do manage to get one early, you can usually sell it for 50-75k. Obviously if you get one of the first On Site, I would not recommend selling it, unless you don't want/like it. Also, always have a Mega Stone or two on you in case there is a new Mega-able event, in which case you can probably sell it mega evolved for about 500k instead of the ~200k for the mega stone and ~50-75k for the new event.



Tip #4: Save Up for Premium

Show hidden content
If you have not already, I would definitely recommend saving up for premium. I recommend saving up for either 6 months or 1 year of premium, as you will get the most value out of it. Also, know when your premium is going to end and always have enough nuggets saved up so you can re-buy it right away. Premium is a necessity if you want to make good money on shiny hunting, plus it makes other features of the game way easier.



Tip #5: Effectively Shiny Hunt

Show hidden content
Shiny Hunting is a great way to make PD, but be careful what you hunt. I would not recommend hunting something that could be mega-able unless you plan to shiny mega hunt it, especially if you don't have premium. It is NOT worth it to spend 50k on a Pokeradar to only get 10k from selling the shiny. If you do have premium, though, I would strongly recommend Shiny Mega hunting. If you get lucky and hatch one early, you pretty much get a free 2-5k nuggets, depending on which Shiny Mega it is, which already pays for your next premium. One thing that is really good for hunting is anything new (as of making this, I plan to hunt some Galar pokemon once they come out). Also, if you can, I would strongly recommend either joining or starting a shiny shop, as you will get many people's attention and the possibility that they'll go to buy a shiny from someone else, see what you're hunting, and get one from you too.



Tip #6: Take Advantage of the Auction House

Show hidden content
The Auction House is a great place to find some really good stuff at really great prices. But some things you should know about it. First, I almost never put anything in the Auction House. The main reason I do this is because you will almost never actually get what it's worth, unless, for example, you want 150k for something and put 150k at the starting price. But with that, it's unlikely that someone will bid on it, at least in my experiences. Second, if you see something that you're interested in, if you have the PD, outbid by 1 PD so you can track it easier. It's just easier to scroll down to the bottom of the page than searching for that specific Pokemon. Third, if you do put a mon up for auction, if it is worth it, put the starting price at 0 PD and promote it for somewhere between 3 hours and a day. This will start a bidding war, where people will see it and say, "A shiny for 1 PD? I'll bid on that!" Then some other people will come along and see a cheap shiny and bid on it. After that, everyone that bid will see a notification when they get outbid and will see it when they scroll down to the bottom of the Auction House until the auction ends. Keep in mind that this does not always work, and do not assume that it always will, so don't try it with incredibly valuable mons, as it is pretty risky. Last but not least, never put a Pokemon worth more than 1 mil in the AH, because you are not guaranteed to get that much, even if you put the max starting bid. So never put a Ditto, Shiny Mega, Shiny Legend, etc. in there (GTS is usually safer), but if you do see one in there, keep an eye on it, as you might be able to get it for cheap.


Tip #7: Find Something that You're Good At

Show hidden content
Whether you're good at art, boiling mega stones, or even promoting somebody's shop, there's PD to be made in pretty much anything on here. Pretty much anything you enjoy doing and are really good at has the ability to make tons of PD. For example, if you're good at boiling mega stones, all you have to do is get 5 of every gem, which will cost around 110k at most, but after you boil it, you can probably sell it for around 200k (maybe 300k if there's an event going on or something). Even if you're good at interacting, you can still make a lot of money. If you get around 6PD per interaction and 10k a day, that's 60k right there plus the GGC for the Golden Slots, where you can make even more. But no matter what you're good at, there's bound to be a way for you to make some money!


Tip #8: Find Something that Everyone Wants

Show hidden content
This sort of goes with the last one, but finding something that everyone wants is a good way to make money. For example, if you can stock up on nuggets before one of the big seasonal sales, you can make tons of money. If you buy 1,000 nuggets for 1.6k PD each and sell them for 1.8k during the sale, that's a 200k profit right there. Two other big ones are Mega Stones and Mystery Boxes. Whenever a new mega-able comes out, people always want mega stones right away and will pay 300-350k for one, instead of the usual ~200k. And whenever something new comes to the Mystery Boxes, people will pay 12k per box or key instead of 10k, so that's a lot of money if you can stock up. (Obviously with these two, there's no way to tell when they're going to happen, so you've gotta be prepared)


Tip #9: Make a Shop

Show hidden content
A great way to advertise what you are buying and selling is by making a shop. With a shop, you get to set your own prices instead of negotiating with people. You can also clearly say what you are buying/selling without having to make multiple feeds or GTS trades. You can do this alone or with a friend or two, but I would recommend doing it with a friend, because (same with the shiny shop) someone could come looking for something from your friend, see something that you're selling and buy that as well. Remember to keep it updated if you want people to keep coming. Also leave it somewhere in your Userprofile (Contact Links or a Custom Panel is probably the easiest).


Tip #10: Stay Active

Show hidden content
Probably the easiest way to make money on here is to be active. Simply going to the Honey Tree, staying on top of Rumbling, and checking Gem Exchange, GTS, and Auction House often are very easy to do, but given time, can get you a lot of money. This is originally how I made a lot of money and it's very easy to do. You get so much free stuff for just coming on, so it's very easy. Rumbling can get you an easy 20k every 12 hours, and can get you way more the higher level you are. Also daily check-in is easy. Just come on the site once a day and get a few thousand PD easily. Just stay on top of things, and you can probably get 50k in 5 minutes every day, if you know what you're doing.


Tip #11: Get Lucky

Show hidden content
This way is extremely easy, but will require a lot of luck. People (including myself) do giveaways very often, and usually all you have to do is just post a feed sharing a hashtag or liking a feed or something, and you sometimes have the chance to win thousands, if not millions, of PD. Just enter as many as you can, get lucky, and hope that you win. I plan to host a few in the future, so stay tuned!

I recommend doing the following:
1. Log in
2. Check rumbles
3. Open boxes
4. Sell extra boxes/keys (excluding Gold)
5. Repeat
I got 3M PD using this trick almost daily. It's kinda slow, so I recommend you apply this and other methods too.

Solus in hostes ruit

Cucurrit quaeque tetigit destruens.
Audi famam illius.
Audi famam illius.
Spes omnibus, mihi quoque.
Terror omnibus, mihi quoque.

Ille iuxta me.
Socii sunt mihi,

rivalesque erant.
Saeve certando pugnandoque

I also have another way (through gambling)

1: get at least 5-10k Game chips
2: Start out at 1000 GC on the Coin Flip game, spam the “Flip” button
3: wait until you get ~50k GC then put 10k for the gamble, then spam “Flip”
4: once you get 500k GC, buy the maximum amount of Lottery tickets, hope you get grand prize
5: if you somehow get over 1mil GC, buy the shinies from the Prize Exchange and sell them. Easy 1 mil PD

But isn't there like a 50/50 chance that you actually make GC on that?
