old topic purg'd

need to nerf hydro cannon / frenzy plant / blast burn still

and fix that glitch where it pulls up the pokemon switch menu after your first pokemon dies

otherwise good progress, they fixed the bug where you have to back out of the battle menu to get your rewards

Eh, the starter exclusives are fine. Ultra is the only league where they majorly impact the meta - they're basically the only reason those Pokemon are at all relevant in Master and there's plenty of diversity around them in Great where they're very good but not dominant.

Community Day was a success, caught a hundo (as well as a hundo Woobat) and 8 shinies, racked up just shy of 200k dust. Dropped a nice 0-5 in my first set of battles today but have gone around .500 since. Trying to mix things up a bit, enjoying getting some use out of Melmetal - Superpower makes for some interesting hit-and-run play and sort of mind games combined with Rock Slide.

It was a very nice day, and I enjoyed the weather boosted community day spawns with the stardust boost.

I was out for 1hr40min of community day. 0 shinies. Both of my friends who came late and left early caught 2. This game is bullshit.

went out 2 hours and 40 minutes
4 shiny rhyhorn with one found on the first rhyhorn encounter. 1 new addition to the raid/gym/rocket team. 1 in training (both stronger than the original). though none of the shiny's are viable for battle.

4-1 battle league (lost to armored mewtwo) 2* snorlax
3-2 battle league (it's acceptable).

lag wasn't as bad this morning but it's going to get bad later.

I got 6 shinies and a 96 and 98% so not bad. I've had bad luck in ultra league compared to great for some reason. I just do it for the encounter and the dust though. When the encounter was meditite that was infuriating.

Huh. Didn't even know there was an event starting today, but went to take a pic of my Stoutland buddy, and got some shitty event Pikachu photobomb.

Had to go look it up and found out it's a "clone" Pikachu. It looks exactly the same just with slightly different ear markings. At least the Blastoise and others have cool markings.

Simply having a lot of evolved Pokemon (dat dust) spawning makes this better than a lot of events. Giving the clones in T4 raids their Community Day moves actually motivates me to go after at least one of each.

Fucking hell dude... hatched another 100% Cranidos. Havent even finished leveling the first, and its kind of a glass cannon so I dont think having 2 Rampardos would be worth...

Also would love to have news on what Marchs Research Breakthrough is. Mine is up tomorrow but I can delay it by a day.

I've only caught one ever so I'm okay with it. Plus depending on how much bonus stardust he gives, it might be worth it.

Getting Solosis and Gothorita added in for the psychic event is a nice touch, though there's other psychic Pokemon in Unova they could be adding...
The amount of milking they're doing for Gen 5 is obnoxious. It's the generation with the most amount of Pokemon, there's no need for it :|

league is fun but I really don't like master because I'm not level 40 and there is somehow even less variety in master

great and ultra are fun because you see variety and every player is balanced at least in terms of CP

Nothing much to them. For spotlight it's like a mini-cd but with no special move and I think normal shiny odds. Mystery hour is a random extra bonus for an hour (one was 2x raid and catch stardust). They're nice-to-haves, but nothing really huge

I've never been into competitive Pokemon even in the mainline games, I've always been a Pokedex/collector kinda person.

Also, the mystery weekend is pretty much guaranteed to be Genesect research amirite? Bug and Steel Pokemon, HMMMM.

i can say with 90% likelihood it is.
if they want to announce the ticket i'll buy.

still about 30 candy from mewtwo's charge move.
at least i don't have to worry about using rhyperior no more (would try snorlax but afraid the lag might be too difficult to use).

I want to max my Snorlax but I need dust lol

I am having moderate success in Master League but it's getting hard, I have to stick to one lead because every time I change, their lead counters mine.

I'll be much happier once Great League circles back so I can use more fun discount picks like Noctowl, Dunsparce, Quagsire, etc.

Datamining has found the event name - "A Drive To Investigate" - and the increased spawns of Normal, Fire, Ice, Water, and Electric types for it are precisely the types of Genesect's Drives, so yeah, 100%.

Yeah Drifblim is an amazing lead. Well worth the 75k dust for the second move.

A-Raichu is also a favorite of mine, Volt Switch hits hard and charges energy like crazy, spam Thunder Punch, and Grass Knot hits 2x on those rock/ground/water combos.

i'm probably going to trial run venusaur with frenzy plant/sludge bomb (found out he's under 1500). useful against other plants and possibly fighters. only can get messed with by fire/ice/psychic attacks. have umbreon and altaria (provided it doesn't lag out) to keep em in check.
