>>56022126
Skarm, licki, feraligatr is your best team. It's a little weak to annihilape, but all three have play or can beat ape. Lanturn is a bit of an issue as well, but after the spark nerf Gatr is actually pretty decent into lant for it being such a one sided matchup. Run crunch on gatr though for lanturn and jelli, and you one shot trev with crunch (though you still win landing a hydro cannon, you'll just have to shield the seedbomb) godra and guzzlord would be the biggest threats to your team, so if you see a fair number of them (possible given the recent community day) ice beam would be a better pick to give Gatr outs against them, but dragonair/dnite get fucked by shadow HC anyways, ice beam would just OHKO a bit better.

If for whatever reason you see a fuck ton of opposing waters you can drop licki for a more solid answer in godra, hakamo-o, or serperior. Serp gives you a better Ape matchup even into ice punch, just know you need to land the frenzy plant to win the 1s, AA doesn't cut it.

Also, how the fuck are other people typing godra and not getting flagged by the system? Everytime I just get a message saying it's spam

>How much pokey/inventory space is enough?
it depends on how much you play and how much you spin.

I'm at 4400 items and i routinely run into space issues because i can't spin enough stops to replenish my pokeballs and berries.

given I have 400 max potions and max revivies I can't justify reducing the numbers of though.

I did my first raid today and got a shiny landorous. How typical is this? Also I caught him in two throws using a golden berry is that normal? I'm meeting up with some people later today and we're doing raids, can I expect to catch one every time?
>>
>>56023992
I have this same issue, max potion and revives are too scarce for me to just get rid of them, but I also don’t use them quickly enough to ever make a dent in the supply
>>
>>56024116
no it's not normal to catch him with two throws
>>
>>56024116
>How typical is this?
5% chance
>Also I caught him in two throws using a golden berry is that normal?
No, just one is normal. Shiny legendaries in raids have a 100% catch rate, so use a pinap.
>can I expect to catch one every time?
No. Most of the time, but sometimes RNG can't be helped. You will get more balls to throw the gym is the same color as you, more if you do it with a friend (depending on friendship level) and if you do considerable damage to the boss.
>>
>>56024116
>I did my first raid today and got a shiny landorous. How typical is this?
you got pretty lucky.

>Also I caught him in two throws using a golden berry is that normal?
if a legendary is a shiny it's an automatic crit catch. you didn't need to use the golden razz on it.

>can I expect to catch one every time?
Depends on how many premiere balls you have and how good your throws are.
I've found generally if I have under 15 premiere balls it's pretty difficult to catch (i'm not great at landing excellent throws and avoiding misses).
If you get over 15 and/or are good at landing excellent's and avoiding missing it's a pretty good chance you'll catch it.
>>
>>56024116
Raid legends have a very high shiny rate, 1:10 I think. A little rare to get it on your first raid, but you aren’t the only one it happened to today.

Raid shinies are also 100% catch, you should have used a pianp for extra candy
>>
>>56024116
How long have you been playing? If you have all the gold catch medals, you should 9/10 times be able to catch the legend. Sometimes bad RNG fucks but it’s rare.

If you are new and don’t have many catch medals, you will have a harder time
>>
How important are the stats on your megas? I have a 2 star Alakazam and doubt I will get one better, is that enough?
>>
>>56024150
>How important are the stats on your megas?
i have a personal limit that they can't have under 91% iv's.
luckily, by the time a mega is released I usually have at least that.
only exception was I sat on enough aerodactyl energy for like two months until I caught a 98% aerodactyl outta nowhere.

So try for as close to 15 attack and 15 hp since you're only able to attack gyms with it.

> doubt I will get one better,
well the good thing about abra is its 3km distance for energy so even if you do get something better you could always walk with your mega enough to get enough mega energy to evolve another one.
>>
>>56024150
Minimaxing stats is only relevant for pvp. 3 is preferable obviously, but a 2 star will do you almost as good
>>
>>56024172
it matters slightly if you're trying to shortman raids, but in general stats for PVE are indeed pointless.
>>
Which way white man?
>>
>>56024081
Walk you fatty. Or get a chink swing.
>>
>>56024176
Doing that is pretty high level play though, and if he is just now getting his first mega he is far away from that. A 2 star mega Alakazam is gonna carry him through a long stretch of PvE content
>>
>>56024235
not disagreeing with you at all, that's why I said in general stats are pointless in PVE.

BUUUT, with how fucking annoying it is to power shit up in pogo, especially starting out, there's no reason to not power up your best pokemon and only your best.

It’s not that big of a deal, golden razz are a resource you will have an abundance of, and you lost at most 4 candies so not the end of the world

If you have mons from 2016 save them, you get a certain amount of guaranteed lucky trades with them
>>
>>56024381
My account is from 2018 but I just started playing again recently. I guess my newest pokemon at the time were from 2020, but a friend and I got 8 lucky trades in a row trading stuff from 2018-19. Only good thing was a hundo skarmory though.

what even is the point of a hard limit on these things?
>>
>>56026208
Niantic puts limits on tons of things because they want Pokémon GO to be an MMORPG that you constantly have reasons to come back to. If high-leveled players were able to get tons of resources to the point that they would never need to grind again, they believe it would completely kill their playerbase. They apparently want the game to last as long as possible; an interview conducted right around/before the Rediscover update confirmed the higher-ups intend to keep managing the game for at least 10 more years from now. TPC seems perfectly fine with this behavior since they keep using the game as an incentive to keep Pokémon living rent-free in the minds of consumerist normies.

Niantic have also been known to drop everything just to squash any exploits people find that make things more than slightly more efficient for the players, and sometimes even punish people that utilize these exploits. Really makes you wish they'd be as enthusiastic to fix all the bugs the game has, but I guess it's fine as long as the bugs don't conflict with the efficiency of grinding...

I mean, people still play Ingress, but the player base has fallen dramatically. They implement an "AI Faction" that takes over the unclaimed portals so people still can play in places with low active players.

It's Niantic's own fault that things like Ingress are losing players since they have crippled the progress you can make within the game.

If it's a shadow sneasle then yeah, that things a bitch to solo since it rips through your health faster than you can damage it, especially once it enrages. And since you're solo you can't undo the rage and just have to burn through it. You really need a team of 6 strong fighting types to take it down, and sometimes you'll have to revive mid fight.

He was ranting about Catch Cup, specifically about how he had a few ideas for what Pokémon to run, but he kept getting shut down because most of the teams in expert were running Carbink or Cresselia (no idea where people got the Cresselia from, but I also saw it a lot even in tanker tier), so he just ended up running double Charmer because it was the only thing that let him gain elo during that week. In retrospect I probably also should’ve used my rank 2 Wigglytuff during that cup because my main team kept getting shut down by Mandibuzz-Umbreon core.
>>
>>56031378
Yeah catch cup is always the most bullshit cup, it's the only time GL GBL is strictly pay to win. But that also means if you invest the right team you'll win a shit ton of elo and potentially make your dust back.

It's free legend if you pay for it and are good enough which is nice. Assuming it's at the end of the season mind you.

this used to brIng back dopamine memories of me holding the official university i was studying. i was in a dorm close to it and its literally positioned on a kfc beside the university and nothing can beat my gym down. my friends accounts lend them to me cause were all instinct teams and say just give us coins while youre at it and i was coordinately putting mons on the gym on a daily scheule basis and nothing can beat me down besides that mystic clan known in the city but i still stood my ground by defeating blissey in a hundred berries til the dude gave up and just captured all the gyms around the area besides mine. ill miss that feeling. i have a gym in my house now but barely play the game these days cause im busy at work.

>>56034679
Thanks ill take that into consideration. I've been having tons of luck with lots of stuff that everyone here says is bad though. I think people assume that if it isn't in the top ten overall on pvpoke then it's useless but I've been running shit like sceptile or blaziken with lots of success. Maybe it's because everyone is building teams to combat the top of the meta so they don't expect the random shit.
>>
>>56033924
>>56035999
I wouldn’t say Golisopod is bad, but it struggles against a lot of the meta. It takes down most fighting and psychic-types well, while also resisting mud moves, but that doesn’t mean it handles the bulkier mons too well.
>I think people assume that if it isn't in the top ten overall on pvpoke then it's useless but I've been running shit like sceptile or blaziken with lots of success.
Yeah /pgg/ tends to do that. The main benefits to Sceptile and Blaziken are that they’re glass cannons that can very easily threaten shields. Blaziken in particular is also basically the only usable fire/fighting-type in GBL, so there’s unique STAB coverage there. The problem is that glass cannons are more likely to get hard-counters; if Sceptile gets paired with a bulky steel-type or Incinerate-spammer, and Blaziken gets paired with a bulky water or ghost-type, it’s pretty much a guaranteed loss. People don’t like using because of inconsistencies. There are some exceptions (water is a pretty bulky typing in general, so Shadow Feraligatr and Shadow Swampert are ranked pretty high), but most of the consistency relies in using bulky Pokémon with good moves. For the record, Golisopod has decent moves, but not strong enough threaten most Pokémon in neutral matchups like Sceptile or Blaziken. Still pretty good though.
>>

I guarantee it's entirely based on your Elo and not "spice." Blaziken is ok-ish in summer cup if you have the shadow variant, but it is not the greatest when shields are up against the main meta of Charja/Vig/Quagsire.

>>56036102
>Golisopod has decent moves
No Golisopod has bad moves, that's why it's so garbage in the meta right now. It's best move is X-scissor at 1.62 DPE, but being a bug typing it's bad offensively into the core meta. Then you have the problem of needing 3 charge moves to threaten things effectively, or relying on Liquidation/Aerial ace which are low DPE moves coming off Golisopod's mediocre attack. The best move Pod has is Shadow Claw.

now Shadow Golisopod when it's released may see some play, especially if it can get a liquidation buff down the road for better DPE. But then it'd just be a bug typing Feraligatr which has it's ups and downs.
>>
Aight, so should I give a shit about this event?
>>
>>56036229
Well I'm still new to pvp but all I see is charja vig quag shit and so far they haven't been a problem. I'm just using what I can and I guess I'm playing smarter than most of my opponents, most of the time it seems like they have poor timing or make bad choices. My wins are over half of all of my matches, but I know I won't be able to keep that going forever.
>>
>>56036326
If you can lock Blaziken against Vig then yeah, you pretty much auto win the game since 2 blastburns fuck everything up (Or even brave birds if you don't have the CD move)

and sceptile easily wrecks quag's shit, charja is your main issue so if your third handles it well enough you're probably going to do well.

but also,
>most of the time it seems like they have poor timing or make bad choices
this is the biggest factor, it means your elo is lower than where it should be. Eventually you'll reach a plateau where you don't seem to climb much due to the quality of opponents your facing. If you don't mind, what is your elo? are you out of the 1-20 ranks yet?

But I've only been playing again for a few weeks. Finally got interested in pvp so I've been combing through my shit trying to find things that work until I build up more good pokemon. I only use it if it's over 90% of it's pvp ranking, with the exception of I think machamp and talonflame, but this is what I'm working with for now. Most of the usable ones are ones I just need to add a second move to or change a move, feraligator has hydro canon but I'm waiting to remove frustration for ice beam.

>>56036339
you have some ok picks, thank god it's summer cup and your picks are viable there. you're gonna struggle with the rest of the meme cups assuming you don't catch what you need coming up, and definitely in Open GL.

your best core atm is Feraligatr/Talonflame, both cover each other pretty well and the biggest threat to that core is Dragons and Lanturn.

you could run Gatr/Goodra/Talon in open GL when it comes back and probably do pretty well. The only real threats to that teamcomp is Mantine/Altaria/Mandibuzz, so you may want to run Ice Beam gatr over crunch, just know that makes you weaker to lanturn.

Good news, you haven't fucked up. Bad news is you're probably a little bit retarded and might wanna get that checked out (though Niantic doesn't really explain things alll that well)

from the 13-14th you'll have access to the spawns that would be appearing in and around the Gofest location, extra raid passes, special 7km eggs (buy those incubators lol,) and you'll unlock the research that gives you Marshadow (that's usually how it works, might be different this year, but typically it's a pathetically easy research that's maybe only a couple steps long)

But yeah you probably wasted it, eventually Niantic is going to toss the birds in a raidday or something so the only benefit to getting them from incense is getting them under 1500 for GL.

But there's a chance they stay in the incense forever and at least then your master ball isn't that wasted.

At least Niantic had the decency to not mandate Catch Cup during the usual week due to a late Rocket rotation.

tldr
they've talked about level 60 but don't know a good way to make it happen since they would have to change up the game again like they did when adding 50 so players can catch up easier
they don't want to finish the mega dex just to finish it so they will hold out on the last megas "until their debut time is right." same with adding gen 8 and all the other missing mons
they're also looking ahead to 2025 and 2026 already with potential ideas

>>56038627
I feel like when a lot of people say they want level 60, what they really mean is that they just want something to actually do in-game.

One thing that surprised me is that the county this is in is actually supported by the site, which makes it easier.
So this building is comprised of two cell zones. One half has two gyms already and the other one has four stops and one gym, meaning that one more stop in the green area and a second gym can be created here.

For empty cells, the first half of the building has 3ish empty spots, the big one between the cluster of four stops and the gym, the smaller space also betweeen them, and a tiny spot between the two gyms.
For the second half of the building, there are only 3-ish very small spots where stops can be placed that won’t be enveloped, like the spot between the second gym and the left stop at the end, and the right corner of the building has a small opening that’s split into two cells.

ibbDOTco/ZNGkLtB
If you really want to make a second gym, outside of those super small areas there is potential in another building nearby, it already has a mural stop, so maybe there could be other POIs there. If a stop at the original building is upvoted enough and a sixth stop is submitted, a new gym can be created there, but definitely no more after that. Otherwise, you’d have to investigate other places within that cell zone if there’s nothing else for that second building.
The only other possible thing you can do if you really want that additional gym is to try to move one of the enveloped stops (that only show up as an ! on the upload map) to an unoccupied cell, thus unenveloping it, and the only way to really do that is to gather the approximate coordinates for the original and desired location, contact the wayfarer chatbox and submit the location change request, and keep doing that until it works. It’s harder for anyone to tell where exactly a stop inside of a building should be so they could just accept it.
Otherwise, if you just want to submit a stop, the easiest spot to place it in is in that large one I mentioned before.

Yay got my 4th Larvesta and 3/4 have been from the same town so maybe it’s got lucky spins. I’m going to resupply my eggs right as the event begins so I can likely get a shiny moth.
>>
>>56044227
if the shiny isn't available before you get the egg, the egg can't hatch a shiny. you'll have to wait until after the event starts to get your eggs
>>
>>56044244
Yeah that’s what I said, I’m going to empty all my eggs and then start my resupply as the event begins when shinies are available.

When the fuck did they nerf stardust from gifts? WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY NERF STARDUST FROM GIFTS?!

That’s the rate for stardust when your inventory is full, or at least I’ve only ever gotten 50 stardust from full-inventory gifts. You can tell because you’re only getting stickers.
>>
>>56045987
Yea I just opened some gifts and the ones that gave items had 100-200 and the ones with a full inventory had 50-200. I'm pretty sure that's what it was like before. Granted it is retarded that gifts can give less dust when it's a full inventory but I've been hanke'd way harder
>>
>>56045565
Even though spark just got a nerf, Lanturn is still pretty strong. Probably not worth building 2 since it's a fast TM which is much easier to get but I have 2 for that purpose so it's up to you. Found a 99% while my 95% was already built

Guys is there like a guide to playing this game? Been playing for about a week (got two shinies), my bag is always full, I never have enough pokeballs and never enough resources to evolve or power up (100 to evolve wtf)

Feels like I am playing this wrong
>>
>>56049410
Well for starters if you want more storage space you need to have a good way to get a reliable income of daily gym coins
If there’s no gyms around you it would help if you were able to make your own stops and gyms near you but you have to be level 37
For candies just use pinaps or silver pinaps every time, the best time to grind a species for candy is during an event that features it as a spawn (regular event, spotlight hour, community day)
Megas can also get you more candy but you gotta mega evolve them for like a month
>>
>>56049410
>my bag is always full
The game is designed that way, you will only get a little relief once you upgrade your bags a fair bit, but the problem will never go away
>I never have enough pokeballs
Use daily incense when you're all out
Add some friends from a website of your choice, gifts help
>and never enough resources to evolve or power up (100 to evolve wtf)
Don't power up until you're sure what you're doing, in this game pressing the power up button on the majority of species is trolling
Evolution can take a long time, some species like Larvesta are so rare that it could easily take you a year, maybe more, to evolve one (since they also require 400 candy). Niantic hates you.
Anon above didn't mention you can also exchange rare candies for candies of a select species. You can get them from raids.

I stopped playing a few months in and only started again when covid hit, but I used to spend a bunch of dust powering shit. Now that I have most of what I want powered I stopped using as much dust. Initially I wanted over 1 million, but then that tumbled into this, I like the idea that I can max out multiple mons if I really wanted to on a whim
>>
>>56049410
I was like you a month ago.
>Storage full
Will always be full whether you have 300 space or 10000 space. Dump shit you don't need like nanab berries if needed but even better if you feed them to Pokemon at gyms. Revive and heal your pokemon to make space
>Candy
Don't worry about candy or evolving or lowering up your pokemon yet. Wait for spotlight hours. I don't know if it's every month like this but on Tuesdays and like once a weekend a month there's bonuses for evolving, catching, or transferring pokemon. Save the bulk of your transactions for then
>Pokeballs
Walk, a lot. If you hit the 50km per week you'll get like 30 pokeballs, maybe more.
Add people to be friends, send them gifts, open their gifts. Seems to me like one out of 5 has 5 pokeballs, sometimes there's 10 sometimes nothing. Also pokestops and the research opportunities they give you. You should get at least once a day a task to scan a pokestop for 10 pokeballs. By Sunday I'll be out of pokeballs and opening presents hoping there's balls in there, but on Monday I'll have over a hundred ready to go for the Tuesday spotlight hour.

Also if you can find local groups to raid that will help you. I got a shitload of items from that and more importantly I have like 8 landorus by getting carried in raids.
>>
>>56048752
Oh no, you're gonna stall and make the match 1.5 whole seconds longer and still lose anyway. Still worth the satisfaction of shitting on your favorite shit mons with my elite meta team loser. I'm better than you scrub.

Nvm my winrate is still better than 52% but holy fucking shit I almost deleted my account after lag spikes caused me to lose the shadow quag mirror twice. How the fuck does anyone put up with this
>>
>>56049896
honestly if it's lagging I just quit for the day. Not worth the frustration especially when a single turn of lag can ruin a matchup when it's close.

Easiest way to reduce lag is play on an Iphone and outside of any peak traffic for niantics servers.
>>
I'm torn right now on my stinfish and lanturn. They both have best moveset for great league but summer cup says they do better with their other fast move. Am I overthinking it or will it be worth it to change them both until summer cup is over?
>>
>>56050469
Stunfisk. Fuck. But as he is he's basically essential on my team, he's guaranteed so many wins. I just wonder if he'd do even better with double mud. And I haven't used lanturn yet, peliper is kicking ass but I don't want two water types on my team.
>>
>>56050469
stunfisk is bad in OGL, though at your elo you're probably fine running whatever.

Spark Lanturn is almost always better, especially right now with very little ground threats (outside of gligar) where water gun is better. Water gun was good when Gfisk and steelix were everywhere. Against gligar you still need to surf to KO before gligar reaches an Aerial ace (One dig + AA is all that's needed for Shadow Gligar to KO, non shadow needs two digs) So spark is still better in that matchup since you get there faster and 2 surfs is more than lethal. Overall though Watergun is about as good as spark in terms of the fast move damage + Surf output, it's really only if you need T-bolt that you need spark's speed.

But given Lanturn's current place in the meta, running either is fine since it's really not the best pick right now. Still good since it beats skarm hard, but Quag/Feraligatr are the supreme waters. If Gatr lands a crunch debuff on lanturn, and shields the Tbolt, lanturn is forced to shield a Hydro cannon or it'll lose the 0vs1. Also, lanturn used to be able to just throw a surf and spark down, it can't do that anymore due to the nerf. Lanturn is still a great check to Gatr, just not nearly as strong as it used to be.

Awesome, love getting replies from people like you, thank you for helping me learn. This is what I've managed to scrounge up the last few weeks. Everything tagged ready has its best great league moveset, everything tagged usable is either a potential, or just waiting on moves, like feraligator, I just need a rocket event to get rid of frustration. Otherwise they need a second attack and or their moves changed as well. Also have a bunch I need to weed out that will likely never see use.
>>
>>56050570
Shiftry and ninetails are only in there because they're hundos so I guess I gave them extra moves and tried to use them before I quit playing a few years ago. I've since changed them to their best movesets and they did ok in some battles.
>>
>>56050570
have you made it out of rank 20 yet anon? Honestly you're likely so far down in the elo that giving you meta advice isn't really going to help much.

You could probably run Gatr/goodra/talon and wreck shit easily down there until you ran into your first Bastiodon team.
>>
>>56050590
Close, I'm at 19 now. And I know it's gonna play different as I rank up more, just trying to be as prepared as I can. I wish I hadn't started during this stupid cup so I could feel out my other options.
>>
>>56050590
But so far my entire pvp experience comes from this summer cup.
>>
>>56050605
Meme cups are the absolute best time to play GL, you're going to hate OGL if you start climbing the elo ratings. Open Great League is the absolute worst league to play in if you want to climb or do anything but tank and farm dust. But it's also the most fun, especially for me, once you have a wide roster of pokemon and have the skill to handle the extreme variety.

You're going to have to stick to the best three you have for what you're seeing come Friday and try to learn how to play it better. Switching teams is a mistake 90% of the time, you're better off learning how to play your team and overcoming bad matchups. You really only switch teams if you run into a lot of hard counter teams or just overall bad matchups.

>get 2nd and 5th in two show cases

They really never bothered to balance this huh?
>>
>>56050620
This is the opposite for me. I fucking hate meme cups and much prefer OGL because there's usually nothing too over centralizing in OGL. Last season was an outlier with lanturn but even that didn't make me seethe as much as this summer shit
>>
>>56050691
centralized cups are the best anon, since it means you can easily counterpick the meta without going to spicy and losing to anti-meta.

Though summer cup is fucking weird as shit right now with lots of teams being triple weak to Vigoroth. It's like everyone said fuck it, if they run vig then whatever.
>>
>>56050701
>counterpick the meta without going to spicy and losing to anti-meta.
Except when hanke decides you've had enough fun and gives you a meta with with a specific counter to your shit. Yea the current vigo shit is insane currently but my biggest nigger is the shadow giraffe which I have lost to almost every time

blame some youtuber for that shit, I really have no fucking idea why it's getting run but whatever. Some youtuber probably showcased a "5-0" set where he got to lock it in vs a toxapex every game and hyped it up as the greatest spice underrated pick in the meta or some shit.

I lose to it every now and then, but largely it's so fucking frail it hogs every shield so you can easily beat those teams by only throwing nuke moves and never baiting since they cant shield everything.
>>
>>56050722
Whoever popularized that shit should be killed. I don't know why but even my bug loses to it in 1-1 shield setup even though the sims say I should not. Maybe my IVs just are bad against it or something. Regardless I'm taking out pex tomorrow and slotting something more anti meta in. What's a decent anti meta team for all this shit? I'm thinking whish/big/pidgeot
>>
>>56050741
Shadow Gatr is hotsauce right now, Hydro cannon FUCKS all of Summer cup hard, and you force a shield vs Vig and leave it near death with not that much energy since they can't just counter you down and have to body slam.

Kingdra is a pain in the ass to deal with, but you need the shadow to win the 2s vs vig. Honestly I don't think kingdra is that good in this cup but it just assrapes my Skeledirge+Double water team.
>>
>>56050741
Eh my peliper vig stunfisk team still shits on you.
>>
>>56050750
Unfortunately I don't have access to gatr until another rocket event. I could use swampert though
>>
>>56050750
Fuck I need a rocket event. My 98% shadow hc feraligator is waiting to shine.
>>
>>56050760
I've decided I'll just lose to peliper since it seems to have magically disappeared from ladder. Watch me get matched up against 12 tomorrow
>>
>>56050774
I've been seeing plenty, but they usually just leave it out against mine, build a lot of energy, then take a hurricane and die before they can use it. I'm becoming convinced a lot of people are just really bad at this easy combat style somehow and just take meta picks without getting good ivs and learning how to tap right. If this is how it is then I think I'm destined to become very high elo then hate my life because I'm stuck facing people like me.
>>
>>56050720
What was your biggest? Mine hit over 12000
>>
>>56050790
It's not hard to get legend anon, but I assure you the quality of players you're playing against now and nothing compared to high elo players.

Also, low elo scrubs almost always bait so just going for the nuke is easy wins since they never shield themselves. You can play single moved pidgeot and just brave bird everything and win easily. just be sure to always be able to switch out or sack your bird if you go that route.
>>
>>56050808
What about a bird/bug/water? I have a ton of waters to work with. I could go poli to kill the vigos or swamp/whish for another pex target.
