	While [[Pokémon Revolution Online]]'s gameplay has substantial carryover from the official single-player games ~~and is featurefully developed overall~~, it has many ~~primordial discrepancies~~ from the handheld games~~; much~~ of ~~it is~~ attributable to missing ~~and~~ incomplete features. As a fan-made, ~~volunteeristic~~, MMO-geared iteration of the Pokémon franchise, it naturally has its contradistinctions from the official single-player games—be it out of ~~eschewal~~ of features that the [[staff]] and community feel would undermine the MMO complexion of the game intended, or out of developmental incompletions of features that are planned but remain to be ~~wholly~~ implemented.

	Missing features are ~~subsumed into two sectionally overarching categories:~~ planned ~~and eschewed~~.

Missing features are either planned or intentionally unimplemented.

	~~'''Auction House'''<br>~~
	While a global-exchange conduit—typically referred to as an Auction House—was initially planned, it was ultimately deemed that it was not stably accommodable on the server; as such, it is currently ruled out due to forebodings that transacted Pokémon and items would be lost due to server instabilities and transactional asychronies. As coveted as this feature is, the staff has deemed that the precarious pitfalls of lost Pokémon and items from it would outbalance the facilitative benefits of using this system; therefore, [[trading]] is only transactable by converging in [[Pokémon Centers]] and transference of the [[Mailbox\|mailbox system]].
