Kris truly is the Steven of Johto.
>guaranteed specific Master Fair with 10k non-paid gemsI demand refund for players which wasted more gems on the previous gacha
>>568439298I'm more annoyed about the free Holiday Lillie putting me at 4/5, let me get a candy back instead
>>568444934You're just getting futureproofed for seasonal grid expansions.
I miss when tech units were just the best at everything instead of trying to make them more unique
I’m just glad that Ethan is an easy skip
>>568439298>Already at 5/5Cool thanks
>>568448378>no Rebuff and can't debuff Atk/Sp.Atk like NC BlueWhat's his purpose aside unga bunga and faster stats buffing?
>>568450565Likely tailored for whatever inevitable Arc Electric unit they plan on dropping, which always have rebuff as the basis of their kit.Either that or future Tower floors will just have so much health that you need all the zone extension you can get by using Ethan instead of Blue.
>>568450565he's a wtz feeder support like Kris, bede, sonia, etc
>>568451749Can’t wait for Arc Electric to be support
>>568439298>first release banner I rolled for her (under pity gems) and never got her>She's 3/5 right nowDebating whether to even bother to 5/5 her. She's still sort of mediocre and I hope there's another buff to her OR we get a new water support. She's a what, 4 year old unit? 5? She's outclassed significantly for supports in >current year
>>568455327The fact that they're guaranteeing her here makes me think they've got a better unit in the tank (summer?) to replace her.
I want to SA Sabi
>>568457741I'll do the same, sounds pretty fun to maximize her double sync as wellI wish she was rock instead though...
>>568455919Which is why 10k non-paid gems is as lot. Basically half a month's gems for an outdated unit or a powerup for an outdated unit.I do think you're on the money, we have the grass/water HSE coming up in July. We might get a Water support and maybe a Grass Sp Atk Arc/NC to shill the HSE
>>568458384I feel like ground needs more help than rock right now, but I have Brock so maybe that’s why I feel that way. Also since there hasn’t really been any techs worth candying since Red96 I got plenty of candy to spare for her so SA just feels right, and because she’s cute
Ded gaem.
>>568459893it's not fair...
>>568459865i actually skipped brock thinking we'd get sabi and rhyperior later hahaguess i'll get him on rerun if nothing new comes up
Oh great another physical ground pair from Sinnoh...
>>568459893>Sleep, Unite, and Go get collabs with Horizons>meanwhile Masters get....JohtoT-Thanks
Soon
>>568461995>mastersex gets irrelevant flops instead of irrelevant flopsoh the humanity
>>568462860Liko is a sex goddess, you homo.
Male neo champions are always so cucked lmaomeanwhile all the female ones are still very relevant
>>568459893Nobody cares about Liko
>>568429953If you played SV you'd know why.
Kris...
>>568467047Should've been from the remakes if she wanted to be treated with any form of respect
Yourself...
Johtodev fighting the censorship!!!
Brandon is probably coming soon.>3D model, voiced>>568459893>Pushing a dead show no one is watching
>EB with Fire, Electric weakness and Johto bonusI wonder if Red 99 can brute force it
>>568473153Can’t wait to exploit that electric weakness with my Johto pairs
>>568425158Ideally it should be SS2 Elesa + SS Iono to make a decent team with NC Ethan
>>568469276Didn't he already have a 3D model?Since the 5th anni.
>>568476259Ethan is a support, retard kun.
>>568479002I know?>Ethan support>Iono EX Field>Elesa damage dealer and rebuffI'm saying that both Elesa AND Piers are a bad side rate up, Elesa and Iono as the side rate up would have been better
>>568478640Voiced now with more animations
Region based on Germany fucking when?
>>568437841Kris got cucked so hard LMAO
>>568488526Really should’ve been Lyra and Kris, instead of spoon fed Ethan
sassy transgender gamergirls pretending kris is popular when even the remakes have replaced her
>>568491378Don’t really care about Kris but seeing Ethan get an arc suit and then a NC a few months later is super lame. Just as bad as the Paldea pandering in my opinion
>>568473153>wise entry x3>def & sp.def damage mitigation / defensive base stats multiplied when no status>def & sp.def damage mitigation / defensive base stats multiplied>kris using aoe freeze built for triple ho-oh teamand you have four (4) ho-oh pairs to make a team with
>>568492185Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen 3 and (pre-legends) Gen 6 have a limited cast to pick alts from and for so they will always look like they are being pandered when they happen, but in the end it's not as bad as forcing character alts when their region basic trainers haven't been released yet, happens with Paldea and Unova a lot.Can be extended to the regions with NPC hell villain admins too.
wasabi's in the game now?
>>568492795should have been nc claire and karen to have something different for once
>>568492328One of sidemon can use Sleep Powder so you probably want to give the tank Sleep Immunity if you aren't using Electric Terrain
>>568492185A year is a few months later?
>>568499275Yep
>>568499275Urm aksually it hasn’t been a year since Arc Lugia
>>568496391AS Silver has also Solar Team Status Immunity at 3/5, but I wouldn't candy him for just that.>>568499387I don't fully agree on the time between alts but I can agree on it being too much that both of them are 1% Fairs
I think that Lyra is more Gym battle focused while Ethan is more Tower focused
>>568500421I feel like that would only be true if the tower restricts theme skills in the future. Like only protags or rivals etc
>>568501023Neo Champion Klara would be amazing.
>>568507718>Anything SwShit>being amazingLol
>>568501023At this rate Neo Champion Florian and Juliana are going to use Skeledirge and Meowscarada since they both already used multiple legendaries
do we have a gem count yet?>>568501023>all those rivals from Galar and Paldeainstant skips other than Taunie
Raifort is the first good Gengar.
I made someone else the leader of the gym, left, and uninstalled PoMas, goodbye friends
My June prediction landed in the wrong game...
It was supposed to be Diantha's turn...
>ANOTHER Electric and Fire>NC Calem is still dedShit update
>>568437841Cute exposed pits and legs Lyra and ancient snow cnnuy. Months like this is what we save our gems gems for, lads.
>>568521238Fire desperately needed a new physical unit. Ethan seems like he is prepping for the physical unit that electric needs.
Raikou is another big damage amp. It's missing super effective next so I'm expecting whatever the next premium electric pair is will have it.
The japs costs us candies and gems we'll never get back because they couldn't help themselves from cheating.
>>568529646It wasn't japs it was literally a chinese gym.
>>568530637Look the same to me.
>>568530637It was literally the japs. If it wasn't for Dena's incompetency in coding, there would not be anything for the other gooks to exploit.
Nobody cares about Diantha, but Ansha is sex.
>>568533227Bro Ansha is just small Diantha.
>>568533557Not really.
Pull her
Cynthia.
>>568541902I don't like evil women.
>>568542028She's not evil she's autistic.
>spend my good little piggy ticket>get 2/5 JacqI HATE MALE PALDEANS
>>568545536Why did you do it
>4 gengars>zero of them are for MortyDo they hate him?
>>568505098I don't think that's necessary, his defensive trinkets already make it clear.Though obviously both NCs will be good in both modes, and if the Electric AS covers his shortcomings (EX ET, Offensive debuffs) then it's all good.
>>568527289>Raikou is another big damage amp.lolwut
>>568552597Reading is hard.
>>568553687Its a support with regular terrain and useless johto circles.Pokefair-tier Huge dmg downgrade over nc blue
Is there info on which banners will be rerun this coming month? I think I saw absolutely-pm with an Arc silver pic, is he rerunning? I'm missing that guy and Arc Ethan too.
>>568554094There's a strong possibility that you're retarded.
>>568555348SS Kris with the NC eventArezu and HasselNC Calem, NC Elio, SS Ethan on Masters dayAnd a select scout for the gauntlet
Is Physical Fire now on the same level as Special Electric, Special Water, Physical Rock, etc.?
>>568556267It depends on the multiplier for Entei's b-move. He's gonna be BiS for gym challenge at the very least and fire is a very common weakness across every region.
>>568556090Oh so no Arcs, thanks man.>>568556267Doesn't special electric have Red 96 which I don't think other types can match?
>>568555634>t. professional retard
>>568556567Post gym rank
>>568556446I'm expecting it to realistically cap at x2, that would put her B move at 600~720 BP at most which would be fair considering that most 600+ BP moves are 1 use only.>>568556484Yes, but I think that they're still in the range when you consider the other components, so the whole thing as teams.Comparing it to Physical rock, Red96 > AS BrockBut NC Blue < Anni GloriaAnd SS Iono/Variety Hilbert < PerrinAt least, that's how I see it.
>gymslop
>>568530637It's the japs that complained>huooo not honoraburu winwho cares I'd rather have another run of gvg with tryhards doing weird shit to get top 8 than nothing at all
NC Ethan is the worst 1% pair since ~Arc Lance or soor the Nemona MF
>>568563834Johto men are just always bad
>>568563834Ethan knows about the arc electric being physical and setting ex terrain
>>568566313Still wont be worth using him, just run triple dps
>>568541902I would if she had Pidgeot and was white>>568533896Ansha will 100% get my shekels
>>568533896so who's her father/diantha's partner? I didn't finish ZA but I assume it's not stated.
I'm going to roll for Lyra, but I have a feeling we'll get an Arc in July. I only have 40k gems too which is worrying
>>568575603you're right, they never say. diantha herself doesnt even appear
I don't think anybody said it yet, but Anni '24 Lillie is rerunning with the 30th year stuff>>568575864We'll probably get 2 arcs, be real
>>568575913Given time skip of 5 years between XY and ZA, it's safe to assume she had her already by that point. It's a shame XY was never remade, it seems like the game that needed it the most due to all the cut content and lack of third version
>>568437841Have the models for masters been ripped yet? I want to study how they made the hair and hands to improve my Green model.
>>568579238>inb4 "check the OP" All of those links 404 and are dead.
Do you think the Tower update will add more cookies?Who are you expecting/want to get one?
>>568579238check models resource>>568579614I sure hope soGive ultra chicken a strong cookie
>>568579238https://discord.com/invite/gjeUNAxb5d
>>568575864As someone who wants Lyra and Sabi, it’s gonna be a rough one
>/pmg/ claims unit is badthen it's a guaranteed good investment>/pmg/ claims unit is good and futureproofthen it's guaranteed gloria tier deadweightit's a simple decision making method
>>568583156Lyra's my priority. I was hoping this was going to be a skip month as I'm running low. I stopped doing the 2.5k pull as it's a scam. I assume Entei, Green, and Arc Silver will be the best units for Fire now?>>568579614I'm sick of getting Gloria and Leon cookies. I don't even own base Leon
>May grid update is one month from nowthis is all so tiresome
>>568585192Has being contrarian ever actually worked out for you?
>>568588998I dunno about him but supports have always turned out good when /pmg/ shits on them at datamine
>>568587735>20k gemsGee, thanks.
>>568587735>20k gemsHopefully I get lucky with Lyra. Will definitely hold off anything elseI wonderi f it'll be possible to brutefor the Ethan EB with 98 Red and Blue
>>568591358what was an actual top-tier support in the last 1-1,5 years besides Arc Korrina, Arc Silver, anni Gloria?
>>568591358Everyone talking about Ethan is saying he's a sidegrade at best, not that he's shit.The problem is that the game recently gave us NC Blue for free, so Ethan isn't very tempting to spend on.
>>568588998Yes, I didn't waste a minimum of 5 SA candies and candies on SS2 Elesa and SS Iono >ultimate special Electric team for example or to awaken Dahlia for Water, or SS Hilda for physical fire or SS Mina for whatever investment she was supposed to be or to awaken SS Roxie, Oleana, SS Skyla :^)
>>568580137Thanks anon. It was helpful to see that I was overthinking it. Kind of wierd how the eyes are textured on instead of modeled like in most anime games today but cool how they manage to make the textures do most of the work.
>>568592824Let's ignore /pmg/ and see what the chink sheet says>Ultra 1>Ultra 1, still sees consistent top use>Ultra 1, outdone by NC Serena>Great 2, best phys fire until LyraSS Mina is still decent but she was 3 years ago and was better then.>Ultra 1, still best poison in slotOleana is a whiff sureSkyla doesn't even have an SS
>>568592797>Everyone talking about Ethan is saying he's a sidegrade at best,right now he is a big downgrade from nc blue
Realistically is there any other pokemon they could even give Kris?
>>568596695Dunno, Togepi or something, who cares about Kris lmao
>>568596695Someone from her PokeSpe team.
>>568597292Meganium would make for a good pick then, potentially Mega
>>568596695like every other playable MC, any pokemon that your average playthrough would have is fair game
>>568597931Aside from Kalos, every player NC has had a legendary, but Johto has dipped into those too many times. And Arc Suits have avoided player characters aside from Ethan
>>568597793Either way, unless EOS comes first, eventual Mix Johto pairs will have another round of starters, and I wouldn't bet on them having tera types or same base type tera types.
>>568598419>Arc Suits for JohtoSilver's been done, as has Ethan. Lance is Johto/Kanto, but would they give it to Claire? Morty maybe? Same with Kalos. It's either Diantha or Lysandre.
>>568596695Unironically only Misty fits dinosaur suicune, unless they give it to some MC that doesn't deserve it.
>>568598735speaking of, what would mix do after this that doesnt repeat types? assuming they are still going to do starters and field pairsi think only like, delphox has a type that hasnt been used (not counting charizard and venusaur cuz they have mix pairs already)>>568599306>unless they give it to some MC that doesn't deserve itIf that. Its gonna be on some seasonal or SS of a random paldean
>>568592109>Arc SilverThat dude was definitely shat on on here
>>568599013What criteria are you going off of?There's more than 1 round of suits per region, Korrina got hers before Diantha did.
>>568601017I know a lot of it was him being the first repeat and also so soon after Leon. Also I still don’t like his random buffs on hit but the individual pairs make up for that aspect.
>>568601026Popularity as a character. Jasmine is another Johto possibility.
2D Green I hope she gets added and gets a sygna suit version.
>>568601017The most annoying shit with this general is that we know for a fact that it's roughly the same 10-15 regulars. We know for a fact that they always shit on new units when we get a new datamine. Those same people will come back 6 months later pretending that they, or anyone else, never downplayed xyz. They'll be doing the same shit AGAIN come Anniversary if Arc Red drops with another Physical Pikachu.
>>568611783I remember when I posted a screenshot of me testing Red96 for the first time and casually hitting a million damage and someone just hit me with the he’s not that impressive.
I don't think people know how circles work. Ya'll know that you get the same exact damage buff if you ran either Blue or Ethan right? Running 2 under Kanto is the same exact increase as 1 Kanto 1 Johto under both.
>>568601017I don't think that necessarily was for meta reasons though. He was the first repeat type and the first non champion to get one. His inclusion did open the can of worms that led to Brock boogaloo. He was also the first to not actually use his ace and in his case something he ever actually owned. Outside of a meta lens it's still a stupid alt.
>>568601017>That dude was definitely shat on on hereand rightfully sobut meta-wise any pair with -2 rebuffs + EX zone will be goodNC Ethan is dogshit in comparison
>>568613075That's fine in a vacuum but you're ignoring the Master passives since Red and Blue are both Kanto units. Whatever Ethan brings has to be as good as Blue and also overcome that passive bump
>>568613075Blue has-2 rebuffsAdrenaline 3and is Kanto which is much better with Red965/5 Blue > 3/5 Blue > 5/5 Ethan
>>568613726>>568614301>+3 sync buff>Head Start 2>Debut: Team Sync Move Boost 3>sets ET 5 times>B-Move -1 sync +2 sp/phy up next >1st S-Move: Team Physical Boost 2>Earth-Shaking Roar>Sets both offensive circles twice + extension
>>568614204They have the same master passive lol
>>568614575Actually correction, he has a better passive than Blue. He has the same passive as Red96.
>>568587735why does Lillie look like she's dressed for winter
Isn't Blue better for Sp Atks and Ethan for Phys Atks?I won't pull for Ethan so I have no horse in this race
>>568614928He does both but leans more towards physical.
>>568614384all crap compared to >>568614301even just to -2 rebuffs alonethe physical boosts dont even matter as Red96 is purely special>>568614710>Actually correction, he has a better passive than Blue.Wrong, he's not Kantoso its worse
>>568614575>>568614710Read the entire passive, not just the first few wordsBlue's>The more allied sync pairs with the Kanto theme you have on your team, the higher these percentages are. (Each additional sync pair powers up moves by 10% and reduces damage by 3%. The maximum power-up is 30%, and the maximum damage reduction is 26%.) Red's>The more allied sync pairs with the Kanto theme you have on your team, the higher these percentages are. (Each additional sync pair powers up moves and sync moves by 15% and reduces damage by 3%. The maximum power-up is 50%, and the maximum damage reduction is 31%.)Red and Blue each have the Kanto theme. Ethan does not. That means both Red won't get the increase, and either Blue or Ethan won't get their increase.
>>568587735
>>568614928Yeah pretty much. In my opinion though rebuff>circles. Also a lot of these arguments seem to bank on Arc electric being physical and giving ex terrain, so hopefully Ethanbros get their extremely expensive wish.
>>568615239Your debuffer will be applying rebuffs for you in GvG. If we're talking specifically about electric tower it's not like Red96 isn't going to brute force the entire thing alone.
>>568615327Yeah about that gym content…
>>568615519If we're not taking any upcoming content into consideration there's no reason to pull for anything.
>>568615239>rebuff >>> circles.fixed
>>568615646Kinda hasn’t been for a long time outside of tower. Not everyone is finished with it or whale on everything after all.
>Gym battles>Current gym is dead, only 7-10 log in. Other 9 have been gone for more than a month.Stop forcing MP shit in the game DeNa. You can't rely on randoms. I hope it becomes a dead game mode like that one years ago that you had to travel to nodes
>>568615837Have you considered not being lazy and join one in top 500?
>>568616019>Try to join one >Request never gets accepted (week passes, I lose out on gems+coins)
even if arc electric will have EX zone - why would I bring NC Ethan?the 3-rd would just be another dps with terrain - Florian or maybe SS2 Elesa
>>568615327>Your debuffer will be applying rebuffs for you in GvGhow would they do that when 99% of players are in random gyms with no groomercord comsat best you can get a stall team that applies poison and trap + Bertha, thats itthinking your electric team will have free rebuffs pre-applied every time is silly
>>568617057>be shitter>projecttale as old as time
>>568617267Ok sweatlord
>>568617368>put square peg in square hole >WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK YOU CAN'T DO THAT>SWEATY SWEATY BOY
The gymfags are getting uppity.
At this point I only pull pairs to make new teams to try out for fun. Gym is pointless to tryhard when you have to rely on others and everything else outside of tower is either brain dead easy or gimmick pair shit.
joining trooncord for top 500
>>568617947you'll never be challenged by van darkholmes and being the master of his gym.
>>568618603Tower is THE main gimmick pairs mode
>>568619075I wouldn’t call status checks gimmicks, when I say that I mean more stuff like Noland, Leon, Wally UBs. If it’s a really shit type like fairy then yeah that’s a gimmick with all of them being just confusion bots. The rest of tower is just physical/special checks
>>568618663Yeah, fuck them, Anonymous is legion!.Just don't look up how hard 4chan is tracking users.
>>568619319>I wouldn’t call status checks gimmicksthe phys/special dmg split is the main gimmick checkYou literally cannot progress at all without the right dps (often at 3/5)>Noland, Leon, Wally UBs.by now all UBs are old and can be bruteforced pretty easily, ignoring or semi-ignoring their conditionsExcept maybe Nolandeven back then, the conditions were generally pretty simple to fulfill and didnt hard-require specific pairsEven on release every UB could be off-typed right awayTower is a much harsher roster check than any other mode
Wait until these anons find out that 4 of the top guilds are /pmg/ guilds and it's just them crying about being afraid of other people.
>>568619758I get that but that’s not a gimmick, it’s a whale check. I couldn’t think of the other UBs like the hair/ice zone one, but the point was you can’t just bring a team to test stuff out with in certain UBs because of said gimmick. Compared to tower (at least for me) where I can just test a team on stage 30 for fun.
>>568615837>a dead game mode like that one years ago that you had to travel to nodesjesus christ that was a deep memory unlocked. what the fuck were they thinking with those events
>>568619787Don't see Hazard Hall anywhere in the top 100
>>568621926pretty sure all they do is shitpost on /vp/ for attention
>>568622474That's just one guy not even in there
>>568622474They're often here though not /vp/. Tbf I don't go to /vp/
>>568592824How is not falling for SA scam being a contrarian?I think that should be the norm.
I’m glad I didn’t SA that water hag and got to use a team of cute young girls instead.
I'm glad we're moving better than last month
Hazard Hall LOVE
>>568615837I like the node one better than the coin gacha box one. And I like it better than the current one too since I can ignore crap I don't need so it doesn't clog my inventory. The game gives you way too many level up books for even a new player.
>>568468368Lyra looks really cute in her NC outfit, I can't help but want to roll for her
>>568468368Green should be in masters too.
>>568459893Liko got into Green's second game. Why do people get so mad about me wanting to go through more games with my waifu? She's my partner in everything.
Is anyone doing the Kris scout or does everyone already have her?
https://x.com/Pokemon_cojp/status/2060194559817031868?s=20
Hey kids, member Paldea?
>>568651817I can't forget about it because you have to bitch and moan about it on a daily basis.
>>568651743Hey let's becoming Neo Champions and make Kris watch!>>568650065I already have her 3/5 and her 4 and 5 nodes aren't that big a deal right now so I'm good.
>>568648701Show us your Leaf collection, bro.
>>568651817I'd think they just threw her in there just so she can say that Entei and Raikou look a lot like Gouging Fire and Raging Bolt
>>5686500653/5, and I know it's b8 for a new water support before HSE. >>568642667They need to trim the fat like how they did with the spheres. It's not like the level up books are what hold up people, if its anything it's the slabs/books (141-180) and the 181+ crystals.
>>568651817Hmmm no, sweaty, Gen 9 Paldea and Kalos did the "remember Johto?" first with tons of Johto forms, crossgen evos, megas and starters following Gen 8 Sinnoh forms and cross gen evos.
>>568650065I have her 5/5 bro..
>>568463683NC Hilbert is mandatory on Ice teams
I wanted to invest into AS Silver but good lord his grid sucks ass and you have to go to 5/5 for the weather extension.
So for this month pull priority is Lyra >>>>>>>>>>>>> Raifort > Ethan >>>>>>>>>>> Sabi?
>>568659594For me it's Lyra > Sabi and who are the other two again?
>>568659594Lyra > Ethan > Sabi >>>> Raifort
I didn't even realize that they were rerunning the anni Lillie freebie. Even without a new Lillie this is Lillie month.
>>568662181There's 2 free Lillies in fact, what a loose slut
>>568662470Just the way I like her
We need more paid Lusamines to go with our freee Lillies
Ethan1 base unit1 variety1 masterfair sygna suit1 arc suit1 masterfair neo championLucas1 base unit1 variety1 mix unit
>>568674652ones competiton is Dawn and Cynthiathe others is ... Kris, Lyra, Lance..............
>>568676315>ones competiton is Dawn and Cynthiaalso Rei
>dawn but better in every way>gets nothing
>>568679646She'll get Arceus
>>568674652>Hisiuian Lucas already has an alt/academy unit.>Akari has now a lodge unit and prob alt soon (NC/Arc?)
Akari would never get Arceus because Arceus hates women
>>568437841When I say Liko, you say KINO!LIKO!
>>568689645Liko didn't want Masters in her show so she can't be talked about here no more.
>>568688708Arceus IS a woman as per GF canon
Green > everyone else>>568652228who the hell is leaf?
Will the third anni Lillie get Necrozma?
>>568676315They really should just do a Clair vs Karen event. Those two are pretty overlooked as far as Johto content, despite being among the most memorable characters.
>>568697624Green collection, my bad.
I saw people talking about master passives yesterday and was confused why people were arguing that Blue activates Reds.
>>568703747Sanqa event confirmed
>>568711535Both are kanto and both passives have different names so they both get stronger togetherThis didn't happen with SST Red and NC Blue, because they have the same passive iirc.
Can that bum Brendan get a Masters day expansion in July?
>>568723307his mega evolution was his expansion
>>568724865Kinda weird they gave Mudkip an expansion though
>>568727101because mudkip could mega evolve already before expansions were a thing
>>568717465Kris activates Ethan's.
>>568728368You need to run hilbert for ex zone and super effective.
Really sucks not having an updated pomatools anymore, I just want to look at damage calcs for new pairs every once in awhile
>>568723307A Gym Cookie could easily give him that classic CS like passive plus built in Dauntless and maybe No Quarter or Haymaker alike passive.Consider there aren't many 5* candidates yet in Hoenn for Gym Cookie, May might get one on her alts rather than another cookie for her Swampert but this didn't stop Red from having 3 custom cookies so who knows.If I had to pick 5 or 6 characters I'd go with:- Steven (CS passive plus SCD and -2 Defense debuffs or +1 Phys Up Next after each successful hit)- SS Steven (CS passive + Brainpower + Unfortuitous 9)- A Steven (CS passive + Fortuitous 9 or Phys Up Next + Flying Zone Extension 3-5)- Brendan (Dauntless + CS effect + Grassy Terrain on sync or Defense Destroyer 9)- SS Brendan (Dragon Zone and Dragon Zone Extension 3-5 + team random stat up +2 each successful attack)- Wallace (AOE trapping + CS effect + Shifty Strike or Hype Up 9)- Phoebe (SCD + Burn or Confusion upon attacking a foe + Catalytic Cure)- SS May (CS effect + Staggering)- A May (CS effect + Discombobulate 9 or Accuracy -2 upon attack or Shifty Strike 9 + Endure or HP heal when >=50%)
>>568729440and throw a bone to that disastrous freebie legendary Zinnia> Zinnia (Impervious or Furious Brain or Brainpower + CS effect + Propulsion 2 or Sharp Entry 3 + First Aid 4)
>>568438095I saw even japs making that joke but I can't recall which Anni you guys are referring to
>>568730721
>>568729030poomatools.site has a damage calc and is updated, never used that function though>>568729440I feel like Gym cookies aren't going to deviate much from Sync Bonus Boost + CS2/Vigilance + Skill so if he gets one, the third skill is probably Dauntless or No Quarter. That doesn't really cover all his problems like how slowly he buffs his own speed or being reliant on Sun for extra damage.In my opinion for the Hoenn Gym challenge, if it happens sooner rather than later, I'm expecting the characters to be>One general poolCourtney>One PokefairSS Wally>The legendary adventure characterZinnia, third skill is Impervious>A 1% characterAS Steven>A recently added oneNC May or NC Brendan (they're the most recent premium characters for Hoenn, grim)>this didn't stop Red from having 3 custom cookies so who knowsI think he only has two though, the custom tower cookie and the CHARIZAAAAARD event one. Are you counting the generic tower cookie too?
>>568731849Couldn't remember the name of this version so thanks anon. It moves a lot faster than I remember at least. I liked seeing the raw damage number on the old pomatools but can't find it here, but this is good enough as a reference.
>>568711535>>568717465Right, EX Master passives are all unique because even though they start the same, they're tacked on top of another skill. Red96 is>Powers up the moves and sync moves of all allied sync pairs by 20%. Reduces attack move and sync move damage taken by all allied sync pairs by 25%. The more allied sync pairs with the Kanto theme you have on your team, the higher these percentages are. (Each additional sync pair powers up moves and sync moves by 15% and reduces damage by 3%. The maximum power-up is 50%, and the maximum damage reduction is 31%.) Increases the user's Special Moves Next effect by two ranks after using its sync move. Which is the buffs on top of S-Move: Special Boost 2.So it's fairly easy to make every EX Master passive unique. But the regular regional Master passives eventually overlap when there's only so many to go around (Flag Bearer, Pride, Spirit). To date there's only been a few type overlaps though>Hoenn Pride: Maxie and NC Brendan>Hoenn Spirit: Archie and NC May>Kanto Flag Bearer: NC Blue and SST Red
>>568735427Arc passives are in the same boat as Master passives, so there's also the overlap with Leon-Silver and Ethan-BlueNC Lyra will be an upgrade for Fire teams even on that front
>>568735427And to add to that, the name is also importantNC Lyra and NC Ethan have the exact same passive, down to the side effect 1st S-Move: Sync Buff UP 1, but because they have different names they should still stack.Not like you'd ever use them together though
>>568688708If Arceus hates women then why did he bless a relatively unpopular female gym leader with an arc?
Still 2 more resets until new content
I will pull Ethan because I like Raikou.
Anabel should have gotten Raikou like we all wanted
>>568748496Who is we all? The voices in your head do not count.
We're about 2 years off from uppity fetuses celebrating XY as the greatest pokemon games ever made.
>>568492795They haven't even added Blue's big sister yet.
>>568596695Shiny Gyarados?
Arc Diantha and Rosa next month. Then Arc Red for anni so they can replace the login art with one where everyone has arcsuits
>>5687405184 more until people can get the pair they actually want to pull
>arc Diantha Lmfao
>>568761808Big if true!
>>568763370What is this supposed to be mean?
>>568723307I know they’re just doing them because they started awhile back, but these expansion for old general pool characters have changed nothing. They still won’t be used outside of CS, especially since they refuse to give them role cake expansions as well
>>568674652does anyone actually care about flopcas though
What side pokefairs are in the new banners?
>>568748496I wanted her in her Battle Frontier outfit....
Is Lyra a Fire strike physical?
Who do you think will get a summer alt this year?
>>568779373Yee
>>568779412Lillie and Lusamine
>>568437841
Damn it’s that dead, huh
>>568779501Cool. Might roll if I wasn't broke.
>>568774280They just had to release the upgraded Platinum designs.
>>568780914WHERE DID IT GO??
>>56878091420k apologems. How dare they.
>>568780914Im assuming that the update wasn't actually supposed to be this late and they had to change a bunch of shit to remove the gym battle so the normal scheduled changes got fucked up.
>>568784828Gym battle have been tied to AS release so far, I wonder if the Jotho NCs were supposed to be the July content
>>568787074I doubt it, we got the Alola NCs around this time last year
>>568787074Gym battles are most likely a bimonthly thing not tied to anything specific. But they will base the types on what is coming for the month.
Next gym battle is probably Jotho themed
>>568780914booted it up and noticed that>piggy for the daily streak bundle>Get 1/5 SS L**feh, theoreticlally OK for the next even as she's grass but at 1/5 she's useless.
Are you pulling for Lyra?
yes
no
Maybe
Perhaps, I'm broke
>>568798321>Are you pulling for Lyra?I have 200k gems and i will keep skipping
I miss galar shilling
Yes, I've never regretted pulling on feMC in cute little dresses they're safe investment
I want Z-A shilling....
>>568808398Maybe in August
Volo dies during anni and then the ZA arc starts
>>568798321Yep, she's cute and unironically the only pair worth pulling
Who is rolling Ethan tonight?
let the shit die
>>568829613Gayfags, I guess.
>>568830074Welcome back doomer anon, haven’t seen you in awhile
>>568833214Kris will get an up to par pair one day, right?
>>568798321>pulling for Kris' ugly replacement from the demakePass
>>568834490She's definitely the improvement, but that's not Kris' fault
>>568834834>She's definitely the improvementIf you're sexually attracted to Super Mario, maybe. Still not gonna pull for her.
>>568836287You might just be gay and autistic but hey not trying to force you to pull
>>568836579>if you aren't attracted to this child cosplaying as a fat, male plumber, you're gayschizo take
>>568836835He says with the most schizo response possible
>>568836287Let's take our meds together
>>568834490Lyra is cuteNone of this is cute
Johtofags, not even once
>>568842656Can you give me a list of your approved regions to enjoy, I really want to shape my tastes to please you specifically anon
>>568844343NTA but Alola for me
>>568437841Just saying that Green would save the game.
Live
die
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCzsEfdPCmc
>>568840784The only time Kris has looked cute to me is in her SS outfit in art. I can’t stand her model
I want Lyra, but would be nice if they calm down on the strike characters. I have no more candies
I want collabs....
>>568865889The Pokemas team has been begging for collabs, but their emails always get filtered to spam for saying sex
>>568865889Miku will come next anni
>>568798321Yes. My best fire units are Leaf and SS Hilda and they're years old at this point.
Kris AND Lyra are cute, Ethanfags are obese while everyone else starves, but all I really care about is how much screentime Lance gets.
>>568876609No one truly likes Ethan that’s why the app icon has always been Lugia. Only time people roll for him is when he’s meta and it doesn’t look like he’ll be meta this time
>>568878018Disagree, he's my favorite boy protag and his Kotobukiya figure is expensive af compared to all the others. Also I like Raikou so I'm rolling even if he's shit.
>>568879836Are you sure it’s not just Gold you like? Ethan is not him
The only male protag i like is Elio because he just showed up and conquered a savage tribal nation and installed himself as their king with a throne
30 mins until Flopthan
>>568889710I thought Lyra was first and was excited to pull.
>>568890043It’s always the one people don’t want first
Let's go baby
I guess i'm waiting until Lyra to do the extreme battle because I have jack shit for Johto.
>johto neo champ event>look inside>paldea academy
Swimsuit Lyra never ever. Shame, her Johto tummy is probably pretty nice.
Had to spark but I'm just glad I got another Ethan.
>>568893045BrotherNow we wait for Ethan99
>>568892945Lyra already has a summer version so it was never going to happen and its arguably one of the most forgettable alts in the game because no one ever seems to remember it exists.
>>568892065Yeah, just rolling Lyra alone is going to catapult my Johto roster's strength, the only Johto pair I've rolled in like the last 3 years was Academy Jasmine
Took only a multi, Mix Hau showed up too, it's officially a skip month June from tomorrow.
>Kris inspires the NC evnet>doesn't even attempt itShe loves that cuck chair
thank you Ethan!
I can't do the extreme battle...
I hate nepotism.
I am fucked aren't I?If I get 1/5 Lyra would I be able to do the extreme battle or is she not enough on her own + my shitters?
>>568897683Im assuming Lyra, Silver and gym Whitney can do it
>>568897683Only if she brings you along SS Morty from her multies.
3 multis for him. Thanks for not shafting me. Now i can get Lyra too
>>568897683Check the replays without bonus enhanced units and see if you have these pairs with related move levels.
I swear she keeps shrinking further every event she appears in.
>>568900039Remember Kris is supposed to be 12 and Eusine is an adult.
Triple Ho-oh was easyThe key is landing AS Silver's Flinch when Bellosom is about to use Sleep Powder
Isn't the whole point of Endurance in the main games that it tanks OHKOs?
>>568902557So much for the new gimmick. Noland claims another victim
>>568902557Doesn't Noland have Piercing Blows?
>>568902557It never described it as that S Cynthia or Hugh's passive iirc, Noland just keeps ignoring Endure.Max Revive name is a little misleading given its actual mechanics in this game.
>>568902847Yes, only protection as in damage guard works because it's not a passive or enduring effect.
>Applies the Endure and Restore effect to an ally.what exactly does "restore" mean here?Does it revive to full hp from death (0 hp)? or only from 1 hp?
>>568903467The pokemon survives with 1 HP and it gives them a full heal
>>568904815>The pokemon survives with 1 HPbut only against things that endure already works on, right? >>568902557so against a piercing blows attack or enemy sync it would just die and not get healed?
>>568905586It actually does block enemy sync unlike Endure.
>shillver again>shitty story>Ethan outfit looks retarded>at least lyra's new outfit looks goodJohtoslop
>>568906917so it works against syncs but not piercing blows? weird
>>568907775It was written in the update notes some days agoIt's weird that endure didn't block syncs in the first place though
>>568879836>and his Kotobukiya figure is expensive af compared to all the others.factually wrong
what are the banner schedules for the patch?
>>568912292Lyra in 2 days. Then Kris rerun 2 days after that. Then Raifort 10 days after that. Then Sabi 2 days after that.
>Ethan and Kris using legendaries to fight Entei>Lyra chooses phanpy
>>568912292
>>568914045Is the x25 roll 2.5k or 5k?Hassel would be nice to have some sort of dragon type unit but these things are never guaranteed unfortunately. My best dragon unit is either Zerena 3/5 or 2/5 Dragapult Leon
>>5689145155k
>>568914858Eh, a bit too much when it's 1/4 of a month's gems. All the latest dragon units have been male or Lana who came out around the same time as another unit I wanted (Ball Guy)
>>568915742The x25 is paid gems anyway
>>568916385Just as bad, if not worse. x25 roll and you're only guaranteed the two feathers, not the unit. Scam just like the x25 roll for 2.5k gems where you'd be guaranteed a unit (Fair,MF possible but unlikely).
>>568914045not much hype except Lilie rerun
>>568909487Normal endurance doesn't survive syncs
>>568917043Yes and I said that it's odd it doesn't
>>568913926Just shows the skill difference
>>568916885so what, you can always buy more
>>568914045Is Anni Lillie's event a stamina based one where you have to grind?
>>568896356>390k HP middle on the easier one>481k HP middle on the harder oneIt feels like some UBs are easier than this
>>568896356I bet the tower is behind this!
Oh hey I got a replay. I swear I only get these when it’s a test run that looks kinda scuffed.
>>568937825Forgot pic not that it really matters
>>568933685It would have been easy if they didn't impose the johto theme skill. I literally have no good johto pairs even less ones that can satisfy the half dozen of gimmicks of this fight.I managed to off region and off type the first battle but I have no chance for the second one
>brags about his and Raikou’s speed>can’t buff speed at allWhat is with supports and not buffing speed?
Giratina
>>568896356I did the 1st one but not the 2nd one. I'll wait until Lyra coems out to see if I can
>test 3/5 Ethan on E30>clears faster than Blue oh ok so everyone was wrong again
>>568955481What exactly is fast, since I know a Blue team clears tower30 by 2nd team sync? Also don’t think anyone cared about fast clears with Ethan, the argument was on damage with rebuff vs circles from what I remember,
>>568955762The argument is that Blue has le heckin rebuff even though the only place they matter someone will set them for you.
>>568955908Is that place in the game with us right now?
>>568956013No, it got delayed because chinks can't take an L.
Yeah I'll stick to Blue for now. If Ethan had special and physical break I feel like he'd be more worth investing in
>>568946930They all have FMN on Hit recently
>>568955481>on E30>clears faster than Bluefactually impossibleaka you're retardedalso >>568956824
>>568956824What level is your Iono?
>>5689600765/5 but doesn’t really add anything. Her team interference moves doesn’t activate because resilience from flinching comes in so quick. HS1 from grid is the most important thing from her grid for fast clears
We're going to get new Battle Rally content next reset
>>568961270Thanks for reminding me. Im glad the tasks reset every month, but im more prone to forget about it.
Will Lyra be better than SS Carmine?
>>568965263She has easy access to SE so yes.
I love Green! I'd play Masters if she was in it. I already played Unite and LGPE.
>>568941741>>568947340https://x.com/Mizu_Pokemas/status/2061059296268550321
>>568968429The most future proof team
I hate Green! I'd drop Masters if she was in it. I already skipped Unite and LGPE.
>>568960587I ask because mine is 2/5. I've debated leveling her up, but I figured the 5/5 or 10/5 would make a significant change. I'm going to assume that whatever the Arc Elec Suit it is, will definitely give Ex elec terrain.
>>568975464She’s more of a EX terrain bot really, unless you have Blue or someone else giving confusion or trapping her interference team move buff won’t activate and 10/5 is a lot for just team power induction. So you can keep her where she is and if you get a terrain extension pair like the arc then she’ll at least be usable for terrain and flinches.
So is Ethan actually good?
We will survive until Lyra gets here
>>568985363Yes. If he was any other type people would be wetting themselves, it's just contrarians getting uppity.
>>568985363He’s meh. If he was any other type people would still be shitting on him, it’s just gays getting uppity.
>>568985363For an EXMF he's dogshit
>>568989296You say this like Hilbert isn't just an EXZ setter.
Welp, once again the story was ass.
>>568989658Alola NCs was the peak, it’s only downhill from there
>>568994003It's the benefit of being the only true champions. They had an excuse to build a story about the fact you sit on a throne and wait for challengers.
I hate that masters releases pairs on different days, just put them both out at the same time
>Lillie up to 3/5 with the freebieLillie always delivers
1 gym unit in 70 tickets.
Thanks, babe.
Do any of the dataminers publicly keep track of champion stadium weaknesses or did that die with pomatools dev?
>>569005583>4/5 with freebieeh, awkward
>>569006457Same and it was a 5/5 dupe (meanwhile Roxie is still 2/5)
>>568989417NC Hilbert was also mid and underpowered.But at least he had EX zone They didnt even bother giving Ethan break.
Dammit just noticed that Sabi’s B move is single target. Why’d they nerf her like this?
>>568989658It's weird the writing quality tanked so badly the last few years. That should be something that doesn't depend on the budget which this game clearly doesn't have much of anymore. I can't believe I miss the days of oh noes it's that darn Team Break again.
>>569010406Why does it matter? She's a worse Cynthia in any case
>>569012000Because I wanted to use her with Cynthia obviously
The big battle rally reward always feels amazing.
I forgot to do CS last week
https://x.com/absolutelypm/status/2061334665399804315
I forgot to have have fun with the game
>Leave Entei to me
>>569025195He does have ground rebuff to be fair
>>569025195CUTE
How funny would it be if Arc Fairy was Lillie instead of Diantha
>>569031151That's an obvious, desperate cash grab.Funny would be Trevor and Florges
>>569018764https://x.com/storm_pkms/status/2061330328908972375
>>569032553I skipped kantotrash, hope I never get it from a daily
Isn't Colress loved by women? It's weird that he still doesnt have an alt
Will you roll for Lyra next reset?
I think that the f2p legendaries need to get Super Awakening tooMake it so that you can obtain the candies for them through some shit like 1k black shards each
>>569038639Give it up Zinniasis
>>569040161I was thinking more of the barely useful ones like Silver, Ghetcis and the SupportsZinnia won't be fixed because they decided to saddle her with the "want Weather" condition which is dogshit for a Dragon Type
>when you stop expecting anything but failure from your childLusamine has a hard life
