Thank you Odawali for making your guide for J.C Denton in the 07' Power Pros! I hope I will be able to make a great player like him one day!

http://www.scribd.com/doc/5128878/Nam-Vo-Success-Player
For the super-colorful guide!

Nam Vo Success Log/Walkthru
Start Sunday August 24th
End Tuesday August 26th

*Basic tips*
Save after every successful training (Such as 4 OK's or higher)
Save after good RE's (Random Events), Reload after bad ones
Save when Vitality is low and injury rate is around ~20%.
Save after every successful gamble
Save before you go into Bison's shop to make sure you can reload if you don't see the item you want in there.
Basically saving before you progress or do anything is a smart thing to do in case anything happens, even though it will probably double your amount of time playing.
Patience, Patience, Patience is the key to making a powerful player!

I didn't record everything like my vitality at the beginning of each week or the injury %. I feel it is pretty self explanatory. Oh and if you are wondering how I am able to do so many commands per week even when it seems my vitality is super low, I eat one candy and usually save then do the command.

Also, if you follow a similar path like me, you don't have to worry about scout or coach's evaluation :).
Also don't be afraid to experiment or try different things. This guide/walkthru is in NO way perfect but simply just to show you how I did it.

Year 1: Feb, Week 1
Checked Data to see if I got Genius or Gd Sense or SOMETHING. Guess what I got. Nothing.
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year 1:Feb, Week 2
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year 1:Feb, Week 3
I have 3 weekly commands so I will use one right now to not let any go to waste.
I am practicing ARM STR because the coach is there and so I can raise my arm strength so I can actually hit the thief later when I meet him :).
I will probably S/L on all my practices until I get 4 OK's or higher
Had to S/L 4 times to get it. I got 5 OK's!

Year 1:Feb, Week 4
I have 3 weekly commands and it is that important 4th week of every month where you get a bonus to your practices to practicing at this time is really good.
I practiced once on Weight Training. Had to S/L 3 times. I got 4 OK's
I practiced again on Weight Training. Got 4 OK's on my first try
I practiced again on Weight Training. Got 4 OK's on my first try

Year 1:Mar, Week 1
I have very little vitality to the point where the Vitality bar is flashing. However, I am going to practice this week and I'll explain in a little. Be sure to save before practicing with low Vitality.
I am practicing Run Speed
Had to S/L 4 times. I got 4 OK's
Year 1:Mar, Week 2
Tell Bison not interested so you can get a discount Coupon.
Alright, my vitality is completely empty so every practice option is a 99% injury rate. Since I am not feeling lucky today, I feel I should recover some of that vitality. I visit the hot dog shop and the guy gives me a free one and I recover half of the bar.

Year 1:Mar, Week 3
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year 1:Mar, Week 4
2 Weekly commands on that all important week 4.
I practiced once on Weight Training. Had to S/L 6 times. I got 4 OK's
I practiced Running. I got 5 OK's on my first try!

Year 1:Apr, Week 1
It was the first game but you sit on the bench and do nothing. I can't remember if I inputted any commands this week or it was just the game. Someone clarify!

Year 1:Apr, Week 2
Alright I have no vitality again! I am visiting the hot dog shop again to train so I can be the next Joey Chestnut! Yeah you meet Pokinitem(Patty) and she says some stuff then you get two options. Pick Do not work at the Ducks and then you'll recover 100 vitality for only $15!

Year 1:Apr, Week 3
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year1:Apr, Week 4
Okay, this is the week before your first playable game. I have two weekly commands and I will use them both to practice. HOWEVER, make sure you practice once, AND spend your points to boost your guy before the game because if you use all of your commands you won't be able to boost until after the game. Some people however may want to go to the shop now to buy a shiny fragrance so it can help boost the scout EVAL quicker. I don't plan on doing that for the first game because I am waiting for my money to go to around $500 and I will explain that in a bit.

I practiced Weight Training. Got 4 OK's on my first try

*EXPERIENCE POINTS AT THE MOMENT*
149 Strength, 64 Quickness, 13 Technique, 0 Breaking Ball, 34 Mentality
I boosted Arm Strength 2 times so it is now 4 (F)
I boosted Run Speed 1 time so it is now 5(F)
I boosted Power from 43 to 65 and it is still (F)
I trained Running. I got 5 OK's on my first try!

Year 1:May, Week 1
First game against the Burgers! I went 1 for 4 with 1 RBI
Strength went up 15
Technique went up 15
Quickness went up 15
Mentality went up 6
Now I know this wasn't a great game but I just decided to not S/L. You can however S/L until you have a great game so you can get more experience points but since I still have the stitches in my left thumb, batting still feels weird lol.

Year 1:May, Week 2
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year 1:May, Week 3
I got the RE for the steak job but I am S/L to see if I can get Jaw's PI Job.
I got the RE where Marvin and I see Lucy and I chose the 2nd option and he ran away and she called him four eyes or something. I also S/L again.
3rd S/L I got no RE
4th S/L I got no RE
5th S/L I got no RE

Alright I still have 2 commands this week but I have no vitality so practicing is out of the question.
I visit Bison's shop (Save the discount Coupon) and S/L until I get the recovery necklace
I buy a recovery Necklace, 1 carryover chocolate and 9 Candies. Candy's are good because when you have no vitality, they give you just enough so the injury % goes down to a reasonable number like around 20% instead of 99%.

Strength 65 → 89 (E)

Even though it is week 4 and I have one command left, I decided to just progress through the schedule to the game the next week because I hate having to S/L if I get all No's in training or if I get all OK's and do poorly in the game.

Year 1: July, Week 1

I went 2-4 this time
Strength up 14
Technique up 14
Quickness up 14
Mentality up 6

Year 1: July, Week 2
Okay I think I neglected not buying shiny fragrances long enough and I don't want to risk trying to see if I can pass the scout's evaluation without them because I am not doing so well in the games right now so I go to the shop and buy 3 shiny fragrances for the 2 games left and the scouting test.

Year 1: Aug, Week 2
By now, My scout's evaluation is over the clear bar! But that doesn't mean I can slack off in the next few games and the Scout's test because the bar will carry over when you make it to the AAA.
At this moment, I am VERY surprised I have not seen Jaw yet, I remember in my other player I got him a lot earlier so I was able to get a gambling ring very early. I hope he shows up soon.

I have 2 weekly commands so one of them I decide to do Sittch's ninja training.
Energy increased by 3

Year 1: Sept, Week 4
2 commands
I practiced once on weight training and I am going for 5 OK's this week because it is at level 9 and I heard when it is high like at level 9 or 10 and if you train and it is successful you will get power hitter. I will try this and if anyone can confirm that would be helpful.
Had to S/L 3 times. I got 5 OK's but no power hitter ability. Maybe I have to get 5 more OK's, I don't really know lol.
I visited the steakhouse and got the catch the cow with bare hands RE and it increased my hitting power by 2

Year 1: Oct, Week 1
I progressed through the schedule (No commands)

Year 1: Oct, Week 2
I visited Sittch by the lake and it was the 3rd time so it was the Glove event. Choose neither for your option and you will get a glove. Be sure to save before going to Sittch so if you get a glove you don't want you can S/L. I settled for a Mizzoto Glove Pro which gives +1 to FLD and E RES.

Not bad I suppose but if I got the PI job and was able to get a Gambling Ring, his stats would be a LOT better.

Practiced Batting. I am going to start going for 5 OK's for all of these trainings so I can level them up.
S/L 10 times. Okay this is getting ridiculous. I'm just going to take 4 OK's.

Year 2: Jan, Week 1
*EXPERIENCE POINTS AT THE MOMENT*
234 Strength, 112 Quickness, 84 Technique, 0 Breaking Ball, 167 Mentality
Power 158 → 180 (A)
Contact 6 → 7 (E)
Field 5 → 6 (E)
Error Resistance 7 → 10 (C)
Alright my guy has 180 Power at the beginning of the second year. That's okay I guess but I probably could have gotten it sooner. Now I will focus on his other skills. I don't want to increase contact without gambling now because it cost too much technique. Pretty much all of the skills now are pretty costly without gambling except RUN SPD, ARM STR, FLD, and E RES. I might just got a couple more levels in those stats then I really need to S/L to get the P.I. RE so I can get the gambling ring.

I am S/L because I didn't see the thief anywhere. Maybe I have to get one more week in before he shows up. Oh, I just read in the forum that someone found him after 4 weeks so I'll wait for 4 weeks.

Man, not a good success play through for me this time around lol.

Okay, I have 3 commands, I need more money for gambling tickets and I only have $282. So I plan on working cause the stupid PI won't show up -.-.
I go to the steakhouse for my first command. I got the Terry event and that netted me $60.
I'm going to the hot dog stand for my 2nd command, but all I saw was talk to patty or have a hot dog... so I'm S/L'ing.
Okay I went to the hot dog stand to see if I could work but I couldn't so I chose the option ask patty on a date but she was busy so she just recovered my vitality to full bar. Than I went to the steakhouse twice and increased my money to $414 and hitting power increase.

Year 2: July, Week 3
I'm going to the Steakhouse and Terry was there and that girl talked about the mega steak. I got $45 and hitting power increase

Year 2: July, Week 4
Went to Bison's shop, bought more gambling tickets and one carryover chocolate
Practicing FLD
Year 2: August Week 1
Game against Galaxy Sharks
1-4 with one HR and one R.B.I
Favorite hitting course changed
Strength up 27
Technique up 27
Quickness up 27
Mentality up 10

Okay so the player is finally finished. He isn't as great as I hoped for him to be but I guess he's okay since I never got the gambling ring or did that well in games. I wasn't able to get him that many abilities to bring him over the top or even max out every skill =/. I hope you learned a few things from this log though. Please post feedback on what you thought that I should improve on cause I know I probably did a lot of dumb things :P.

Ways to improve:
Go for perfect hitting games like 4-4, 5-5 so you can get a boost and abilities.
Finish Frank's Arc as soon as possible if your player does not have Good Sense.
I would try to S/L to get the P.I Job because it makes making a GREAT player so much easier with gambling rings and all those books. On my previous guy, I got a gambling ring as soon as possible and it lasted me through the whole game.
Getting Energy up to full bar may be a good idea too but I haven't tried rushing it up so I don't really have an idea on it's effectiveness.
Also dating the girls may be good too but again I never dated them so I wouldn't know how to go about it. Maybe I'll try on my next guy!
One other thing that might be better is to buy shiny fragrances for all of your games in the first year and the scouting test so you don't have to worry as much when you get to AAA.


Now for all you been waiting for.... the pics!

And the Password!

*EDIT*
Don't mind Nub, and Nam haha. Nub was my first pitcher I cleared success mode and Nam was my first player ever to clear this year's success mode :D.

SORRY SORRY, forgot to put PS2 in the title

Sweet. First Log I've seen and its very good.

Although my character has better stats than you, I don't have as much abilities as you.

Thanks for the replies.
Yeah this player isn't amazing but I just wanted to show people a few ways to do things. If I didn't S/L when I got the P.I job he may have been better or if I got the job a lot earlier. Plus I didn't do to well in all the games. There are a lot of improvements that could be made to this player!
