>>56892825>Tfw no pokegirl gf to open packs with
I want that fucking Sabrina full art so bad. Gonna focus Pika packs for a while since I barely touched them but as soon as I reach 120 hour glasses I'll end my Pika opening with a 10-pack open and then go back to Charizard. I'm also only one Moltres EX away from a functional Charizard deck too.
>plays this card>passes turnWhat do you do?
Are you really in love with a card?
>>56892847I take it slow
I am once again shilling my FC if anyone wants to add me for wondertrades, i opened two of these yesterday
>>56892862stupid ass mewtwo made me forget my code4292 8828 3975 3637
>>56892850Why wouldn't I be?
>>56892862You can put your friend code into the OP survey and it gets automatically added to the sheet
Wonder picks are fucked. Any time there are three or four cards in the pick I don't have I always get something I do have. One of the cards I don't have yet is always a three diamond or an EX so I'm always down on stamina! Ugh! I'm going to go eat some cookies about it
>>56892825What kind of deck should I build with this?
2 more weeks till shadow exeggutor is added into the game btw
I wonder if attacking on the first turn is intended because they want to print 0 cost attack cards in the future.
>>56892892Order them by card number like a normal person! Definitely try to get another Eggs so you can run your two Exeggutor EX, maybe throw in two pinsirs, uh...
>out of hourglasses>Have to wait 12 real hours to be able to open 1 pack>Opened dozens of charizard and still dont even have half of everything >Get 1 new card out of 5 potential >Have to wait another 12 hours to see what my other new card is>Still havent gotten 4 cards necessary to run my deck yet>Want to dieHow do people keep opening up boosters past level 8once youre done with the missions?
>>56892919Don't know about you but I just wait 12 hours.
>>56892847Make it happen
Do you leave the game when you know its over? Or you wait for your opponent to finish you?You say "Thanks!" after you Win/Lose?
>>56892919Leveling up gets you gold and pack hour glasses.
>>56892919It's like they want you to spend money to speed up thing.
>>56892927Depends on if I like my opponent's playstyle and deck or not
>>56892850Yes.
>>56892892You could try something with Lilligant as early game setup, Butterfree for healing, and then Eggy for late game, well, not really a sweep but it can sustain one attack from Mewtwo ex without Giovanni. It looks pretty dire without Venusaur ex so don't expect to win, but you could have some fun.
>>56892930>>56892929>>56892923So majority of people in here really wait to keep getting shit after shit packsI wouldn't feel so salty if there was a guaranteed at least 1 rare in each pack and not some dumbass diamond
>>56892927Concede if it's really over. Thank anyone as long as they weren't running down the clock for no reason (unless my thumb slips and I press the x).
>>56892946Genuinely asking is this your first gacha? That's the just how it goes. If you want to keep pulling you have to spend.
If Lucario EX isn't an Immersive where he's meditating in a mountain while surrounded by a pack of Riolu and Lucario, I'm uninstalling.
>>56892847Why is this 2 energy
>>56892961Slowpoke is slow
Only recently started playing. What's the difference in the shop between the top row of purchasable hourglasses and the one below? It's more expensive but I don't get why.
>>56892951>first gacha?I genuinely despise them
>>56892946If you bought 10 individual packs of cards for $45, would you expect every single pack to have an EX or a Full Art? No? Why would you expect it from this game? If you answered yes, you're a retard.
>>56892969That first row is from what we understand a one and done. Once all of those are spent, they will not refresh.
>>56892969the top row is a one time offer of 10 single hour glasses and 10 6x hourglassesthe second row refills every month.
>>56892969top is gone foreverbottom is monthly
>>56892973Maybe not an ex or full art but at least a sabrina or misty or regular blastoise, venusaur, of charizardIve only gotten 2 EX cards so far from all the beginner and advance missions hourglass/free packs
>>56892984So I should stay clear off the top row yes? NTA
>>56892961To balance the upcoming Slowking EX
god, I wish I had picked egg instead of marowak from my first pack
>>56892992You're a dumb nigger
>>56892927I say thanks when I win or if my opponent doesn't dillydally when given the win condition.You don't need to heal your pokemon, use any professor's research, pokeballs or attach energies in any way if you can swing for game.
Jaja
>>56892998Kill yourself
>>56892992You should buy the monthlies first then buy the singles after... if you can (you probably won't if you want to keep buying the monthliess when they're refreshed since the tranny coins are kinda limited to come by)
>>56892997At least marowak gives you sandslash. Hes OP with a 70 attack for only 2 energy. The starter decks are pretty trash otherwise for only giving 1 Ex and not even a regular marowak
>>56892919>How do people keep opening up boosters past level 8>once youre done with the missions?idk what your talking about, I was level 12 or 13 by the time I had cleared all solo battles. sounds like you still have a ton of trans tickets to obtain.
>>56893001I havent even gotten 1 single misty or sabrina from a pack
>>56892992No you want to buy the cheaper ones because they're cheaper. You could also leave them be and buy the monthlies first so you can save the cheaper ones for another time
>Can't name my deck "First deck"Why?
Let's see some more fanart folks.
>build Dragonite deck>immediately encounter another Dragonite deckhell yeah brother i won because i got lucky and went second
>>56893021Kek
>play stupid nigger retards using Weezing / Arbock deck>they waste 10 minutes trying to pivot constantly>they lose>don't even send thanks after getting beaten
>>56892909>Order them by card number like a normal person
finally got 50 wins, have yet to get a single lapras however
So, I added this anon >>56891822 as a friend.How long does it take for their wonder pick to show up?
>>56893026t. Guy that got his stage 3 going by turn 3
>>56893033I order them by rarity.I like seeing all the shiny cards in one spot.
>>56893035I don't believe you
>>56893033i would invest in an exeggcute and a caterpie which would run you 70 pack points, this should give you a pretty good base for a deck, then you can add 2/2 petilil/lilligant and 1/1 skiddo/gogoat (or 2 pinsirs if you prefer to gamble instead of the goat)it won't win EVERY game, but it'll win enough
>>56893039Was playing a pika deck, and killed his back line with Zebstrika.
>>56893037You're not guaranteed to get it.
The poison deck isn't bad, but I fucking never get Muk off, ever. If I start with Grimer then he just dies before I get Muk, and if I get it later, the only way to use Muks bonus anymore is Weezing and Ive never had it work out that way, most common reason being because I dont even draw Muk in the first place.
>>56893042i meant 50 pvp wins, but i currently have3 butterfree2 pika6 clef3 mankeyand i'm at the point where I think i'm just gonna grind expert until the event is over and open my 12~ promo packs all at once and leave it at that
>>56893047What a fucking scam.
I will just save up my glasses for the next pack
>>56893057That's some insanely bad luck. Hope you can get at least one bro.
>>56893059It's just an excuse to add friendos
>>56893059If you think that's bad you can actually turn off pack sharing to be a dick for no reason
>>56893059The whole game is a scam. Dont forget the fucking carousel is predetermined before you even press "open pack"
should I pull the trigger and just craft a froakie and greninja? i don't wanna keep pulling for charizard packs
>>56893074if you can wait a lil greninja will be in the next promo pack
>>56892986You could've rerolled instead of complaining.
>>56893074>>56893074I stopped rolling charizard packs when the greninja got announced for next promo pack, join me in opening mewtwo packs brother
>>56892927>Do you leave the game when you know its over?If I'm getting rinsed by a (paid for) deck that completely outclasses mine, yeah.That kinda thing is why I left the PTCG scene in the first place decades ago and that keeps me from going all in on the versus battles in TCGP.
>>56893079>>56893094didn't knew that was coming up, i can wai->november 29
>>56893098Just blink and it will be December
>>56893057Dear Lord, I've gotten three Lapras already. Only thing I need is the Clefairy.
What pack do i even open at this point. I have a bunch of good cards like pika ex, starmie ex, mewtwo ex but i always fall short of a full deck. No misty, no gardevoir etc
>>56893098just do anything else for a couple of weeks, it'll be here before you know it, surely you have something you can sub in that isn't a 3 stage line>>56893104trade ya
>>56893107You can make a full Pikachu EX deck with all the cards in that set.Or you can make a full Mewtwo EX deck with all the cards in that set.
>both me and opponent playing egg stall>keep noth getting shit flips so no real KOs after both of us have 2 points each>stalled so long the game called a tie>mfw we both lose out on exp and 8mins of timeFaggot knew he was losing yet wouldn't concede >pic related is him
>>56893107>What pack do i even open at this pointif it was me, I'd look at the cards need to complete Ex decks or copies of the rental decks and stick with that strategy.
Anything you want to say to my 13 Blitzle you can say to me
Card balance aside, the most unbalanced part about this game is the going first/going second coin toss. Going second gives you a massive complete full tempo advantage in a game that's normally going to be decided about 6 rounds in (and wrapped up in about 9 or 10). Going first gives you nothing.Someone explain to me why they couldn't just make the player going first be able to attach energy first, but disallow the player going first from attacking. They just get to attach 1 energy. The player going second gets to attach 1 energy too, but unlike the player going first, they get to attack. Basically the player going first gets to have an energy tempo advantage but the player going 2nd gets about a 30-ish damage tempo advantage.I don't understand why they decided to give the player going second such a massive advantage.
>>56893111>trade yaI absolutely would cause I'm worried I won't get the clefairy before the event ends. only get two matches a day.gave up trying to beat the advanced deck and I stick to the intermediate deck since every time I play beginning they rob me of the promo pack.
>>56893119This because completing those decks gives you more points to open packs, I started mewtwo then did charizard, then pikachu.
>>56893107>I have a bunch of good cards like pika ex, starmie ex, mewtwo exthat means you just opened random packs at will like a dum dum. you need to go all the way with one pack at first until you get all the crucial cards out of it.
>>56893129>This because completing those decks gives you more points to open packs, I started mewtwo then did charizard, then pikachu.and you need those Ex and Rental decks to beat the upper levels of matches to get more hourglasses to get more cards. otherwise you...ugh...pay for cards.
OOPS DID I FLIP HEADS 4 TIMES IN A ROW? LOOKS LIKE YOU FUCKING LOSE LMAOOOOOO
>>56893144>that means you just opened random packs at will like a dum dum. you need to go all the way with one pack at first until you get all the crucial cards out of it.nta but i save up hourglasses to open three packs at a time. otherwise i go rando on the free picks. worked out pretty well for me.
>>56893116Why didn't YOU concede then?
During the Lapras event chance rewards, what are the odds exactly?
>>56893124Going first means you can evolve sooner. It's bad right now but when we get a card like Rare Candy going first will become the preferred option for Mewtwo decks. In the meantime just tech Weezing into more decks.
>>56893157100% drop rate on expert, that's all I know
>>56893149>OOPS DID I FLIP HEADS 4 TIMES IN A ROW?actually had that happen to me>face off against the computer>plays misty>ROLLS FIVE MOTHERFUCKING HEADS IN A FUCKING ROW>obliterates me with a Lapras doing 90 dmg at the beginning of the matchI've also noticed with Seaking that the computer rolls heads basically every single time. Absolutely ridiculous.
>>56893149I didn't think that aerodactyl would shuffle my lone dragonite into my deck, earning the opponent a zero point win. I also didn't think that the motherfucker would hit heads so what do I know
at least being stocked up on laprases means I have exes to trade when trading rolls around
I only get duplicates of the EXs I already have without fail. I have at least two of every EX I own and each pack has multiple EXs I still need
I WILL TRADE MY CROWN ZARD FOR A FULL ART MISTY
>>56893107Go for whatever. Hopefully, you’ll do better than me. Pic rel is all I’ve gotten by milking the game dry, and three of these were from wonder pick (wiggly, zapdos, and starmie).
>>56893179Yep, how rAnDoM these pulls seem, just like the dice flips are sO rAnDoMRigged by riggers just like CoD lobbies and fortnight.
>>56893034Grimer is a ghetto Weezing in that deck. You only really use it to poison mons and then die so you can switch in Arbok and trap your opponent. You only evolve into Muk to stall with the extra HP or enable a Koga. Rarely will Muk ever take the stage as an active attacker.
>>56893184No one will take that trade, I’ve been pulling for the full art waifus and they’re literally impossible to get, the game will give you one (x1) of them as bait but you’ll never pull another one..
>forgot to poison with Weezing, leading to loss
Just beat an obvious paypig mewtwo/garde faggot with my BASED nidoking, Arbok and weezing deckEat shit, nigger
>>56893194Someone will take it you'll see
>>56893152fuck that if there's a clear path of me winning he should honor me with the win.
>irl all the spiteful mutants have practiced mana weaving and fake shuffling so their decks are never really random>online would solve this>the computer now just cheats for you and puts the 7 fucking cards you need on the bottom of a 20 card deck, which is statistically IMPOSSIBLE TO HAPPEN MORE THAN ONCE IN A DAY BUT SEEMS TO HAPPEN EVERY OTHER GAME
>>56892892Buy a Vileplume and get ready to practice until you can ride this into the stars.
All coin flippers with the exception of Moltres ex are a meme.
Why are they refusing to join me?
>>56893212Art imitates life.
>>56893216>2 Erikas>2 potionsMight as well run butterfree too so you can spend the entire game healing you retarded faggot
>>56893158Evos are too slow in this game. By the time you have your stage 3 Pokemon out your opponent's Pikachu will have either killed your active EX or left it vulnerable and exposed for a 2HKO or a trade (which you'll probably lose because the Pikachu deck has the best tempo in the game). The game is too fast paced. The only exception is Starmie but that's because it's only 1 evo and the card is busted as shit. You also synergize it with a basic Pokemon in case you don't find your EX fast enough. Maybe Weezing poison stall too, but I think the yellow rat beats any variation of that deck as well simply because of the tempo advantage. You'll be too many energies behind. Cards that require two evolutions are simply too slow in this game.
>>56893033Eggs ex is very good. I rode that fucker to victory in many of the challenges
>>56893222You only get 1 waifu per 500 dollars spent
>>56893222
>>56893222Did you try switching your language to Japanese?
>>56892927>let them get the KO point>"Thanks!" every time>"Add friend" every timeAny negative reaction to this behavior on their end is completely a personal issue.
is there a legit site to download the apk off of so I don't have to sign into google on an emulator?
>>56893184I have a full art Misty that I'm willing to trade for Surge. Yes I'm a fag
>>56893237>he doesn’t have an iPhonelol. Lmao even
>>56893005Don't you get trannie coins for thanks each match up until your hit a max for the day?
I now understand why japs love her
I don't think I have ever flipped heads with Kangaskhan
>>56893238Based homo
>>56893247same, I switched him out for Chansey
>>56893227Will Rare Candies save Stage 2's?
>>56893026I loled, thanks anon, let this thanks stand in place of the one you were owed
>>56893049In theory what Muk brings is great for the deck - a bulky revenge killer compatible with Koga but the problem is the solo Grimer brick where your momentum is killed because of the retreat cost and staying in with Muk is unlikely while also not playing to Muk’s strengths. The Arbok’s end up getting priority for the energies anyways because they’re cheaper and more dynamic with the 2-energy trapping move, in addition to there being more of them in the deck. I feel like stuff like Pidgeot, Wigglytuff, Hypno, Aerodactyl are much better because they add new dimensions to the deck without really disrupting its core playstyle. Muk only gets to do its thing when you’re winning anyways.
>>56893240You get five shop tickets from any thanks. Easiest is getting it from displaying binders
>>56892927I don't get why you wouldn't concede when you know it's lost. It's like saying "I don't trust you to not be a bumbling retard and sink this 10 cm putt". It's BM. Just concede.
>>56892961There's a gacha idea of characters (Or cards in this case) either being desirable for gameplay, or for other reasons, like the character being popular. This gets people to double dip for both meta and looks.Slowpoke has a dedicated fanbase, especially in nipponland (You can see it even in these threads).Now, there's obviously cards that fit both of these categories, namely the chase cards for the 3 pack variants. They need to hook players with that first, and exceptions always exist, but it's very much a thing they do.
>>56893257Don't let the zardtards hear their deck is bad
>>56892927I'll concede if I know it's going to be a boring slog of exchanging sissy slaps until my inevitable loss, but if they're setting up a high dmg finisher I'll take it like a trooper.The only time I don't thank after a match is if they got a bench full of EXs or legendaries on the first or second turn. No respect for P2Wkiddies
>>56893149Love using this dude and the psychological factor has got to be crazy as well. I’ve flipped losses against Zard with it
>>56893046Weezing Arbok has a really good Mewtwo matchup and I usually struggle with them, but I know in a real tournament setting it's unlikely I encounter them later in the tournament because they're unplayable trash against Pika
Yeah wow I went back to play Live, this game SUCKS. Massive fucking decks, confusing energy management decisions, infinite draw and search power. I made a cheap toolbox deck I found online and it was Articuno18 levels of filler cards, like literally 10 pokemon, 40 trainers, 10 energy. About fifteen one-ofs for various matchups. I remembered it being bad but it's so fucking clunky.
>>56893291built a zard deck because the gachagods gave me all the pieces and i still live in shame
Hello, I am MewTwo faggot.After playing lots with potion, I swappes it back to geo. Eggs, Dragonite, and Ekans were the main reason in doing so. Against Pika its often helpful to have potion, but its not worth it I determined.
Sorry if this is a retarded question, but do you need more exp to level up for each subsequent level? Does anyone know what formula is used for this calculation
>>56893227Which is why I mentioned Weezing. Weezing has 110 HP which safely dodges a Pikachu, can deal chip damage at the cost of no energy and can be bounced to stall multiple turns and when he does finally get KO'd only gives 1 point.Right now the issue with evolutions is that there just aren't many good stage 1 options that attack for 1 energy. This is an issue that will naturally get solved with time as new cards are introduced.Rare Candy would be a good way to fix stage 2 decks because it bypasses the need for stage 1s.
*crushes the mouse*
>>56893323Red pill me on this clunker
>>56893307>Against Pika its often helpful to have potion, but its not worth it I determined.Personally, I think it’s mandatory against pika, but that’s just my opinion (based on my pika deck’s playstyle). Raichu variants might care a little less about potion, but at that point, it’s on you to adapt.
>>56892927I only say thanks for the win. Why would I thank my opponent for a loss?
>>56893225>fire can deal lots of damage>electric can have low retreat cost>darkness can poison>noooo grass can't healThe deck doesn't work without healing. The only wincon is Vileplume and if anything goes wrong along the way you lose. Now I understand why crybabies like you gifted me 50 wins with this deck.
>>56893321There are actually a shitload of good stage 1 options that attack for 1 energy. I made a list the other day and I kept getting surprised.The actual issue is that Pikachu ex can highroll into a Giovanni and kill all of those 100 HP pokemon. It's still an okay trade for you theoretically, but it massively increases the burden on you to find your cards.
>>56893331To give them the shop credit because you're a good person and can handle losing in a no skill pure RNG fest?
>>56893257Rare Candy would be great for Mewtwos going first because it would let them accelerate their Mewtwo faster than opposing Mewtwos. Assuming you had the Ralts and Gardevoir in your opening hand.
Anyone here have 200+ wins? Been running into lvl 50 nips with cool medals
>>56893326I've been using him with some big fat useless cannon fodder (>>56893247) to stallOnce it's out it is unstoppableI've got the Pidgeot line in as well for Drive Off but that's probably not necessary
>>56893340Please, you know when they win they dont think "Oh man I got lucky, good game." They think "Haha fuck you, loser."
Someone explain Ditto copy anythingIs it if you dont have the right type of energy or the correct number of energy or bothBecause the way its described sounds like it fucking sucks
>>56892927I don't concede early, because I know some people like actually performing their set up. But I do understand people who concede for politeness when the opponent has win condition.I always thank everyone in every scenario the game lets me. Since it's tied to shop rewards, doing anything but this is a dick move. The only exception would be if someone was griefing (eg purposefully wasting time by doing pointless effects when they could just win) - however I've not run into that so far.>>56893272I have actually had someone not take a win condition. It was one that required him to switch in something from the bench, so my assumption is he just didn't see it. So being able to actually put the mechanics together in your head to reach the win con is still an actual thing.
>>56893350https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1go5uvm/psa_ditto_is_the_key_to_dealing_with_meta_ex/
>>56893350It's any colour of energy, but you need the right amount
>>56893341That's a pretty big assumption. I'd still prefer going second for the overwhelming majority of times they don't draw those 3 specific cards in their opening hand.
>>56893216Parasect seems pretty brutal, like seaking but no coin flip
>>56893339Another reason why Weezing stands as the best stage 1 mon. The rat can't KO him even with a Gio's.
>>56893349Who cares? Not like there are emotes or a chat in this game. Any negative behavior is literally coming from your own head. Just give them the shop credit like a good person.
>>56893184I got a full art Giovanni but rerolled my account because i was looking for articuno ex
>>56893354why is she clothed
>>56893327I hear you, but double mewtwo is still easily enough to beat even the best Pika draws. It's at least something. In a tournament, I may just try to dodge fringe decks the first few rounds and still pack the potion
Will you whale for she?
>>56893369>higher retreat cost>3 energy attack vs 1Neither card is great, but parasect is too slow. It’s a painfully average card.
>>56893364Which is why I included the caveat "if you have the required cards in your opening hand." It something for sure because as it stands we don't have nearly enough going first options
>>56893340There is a lot of skill in this game, from deck selection to execution. Every card card has tons of variance though.
>>56893361nope.if you do that the move fails. you need the exact colours of energy.
>>56893291I win 9 out of 10 times. Don't even need that much luck with Moltres ex flips. I could stall with regular Moltres or Rapidash until my Charizard is all lubed up and ready to go. If I'm Sabrina's, I switch to one retreast cost fodder, either Rapidash (if fighting Pikafucks) or Moltres (if fighting Mishitstyfags). Life's good, unless the deck really hates me and puts both Charmeleon in the last few cards.>>56893306You're retarded.
>>56893361>>56893361Definitely sounds better than i previously thought Loved watching that gay ass mewtwo die to ditto
>>56893379>double mewtwo is still easily enough to beat even the best Pika drawsCan’t argue with you there. It takes a killer hand from pika to beat that. Mewtwo is somehow really underrated by the player base despite being everywhere kek. Not sure how that happened.
>>56893394post deck then, kind gentleman
>>56893375Hm............No.
>>56893387This game has basically no skill expression. There's always an obvious best move to make and almost everyone will always see them. The games are not decided by who played the best, they're decided by who got the luckiest draw and who had the better deck.
>>56893394Well firstly, almost everyone playing mewtwo is playing a garbage list with other basics, so that will help you a lot. Don't even mention how badly people play in game. I'm somewhere around 13-2 in mewtwo v zard, just to give you an idea of what I'm talking about. At the end of the day, zard is just not good IMO. If I'm wrong, then I'll accept that when I get more data. From a theory standpoint, I like saying mewtwo is a favorite in the matchup
>>56893384What about caterpie? How would i use caterpies effect to help get what grass i need without it dying the next turn, is there a strategy or just thats the risk reward
>>56893404Sure whatever. Be a child.
>>56893382>weird stick figureNot a chance.
>>568934022x Charmander2x Charmeleon2x Charizard ex1x Ponyta1x Rapidash1x Moltres1x Moltres ex2x Sabrina2x Professor's Research2x Potion2x Poke Ball2x X Speed
>>56893401People are retarded and often play additional basics instead of fossils which obliterates tens of % from each of your matchups. Also pika is more forgiving and easier to play.
>Constantly hear people talk about how Pikachu is apparently OP>Finally get one after starting the game today>All he does is some shitty move that does 20 damageAm I being trolled?
>>56893406Nope. Lots of complex retreat scrapping moments come up. Pika is easy to play, but I'm Mewtwo fag and usually your first energy you're going to need to make a decision that will matter 4 turns down the line. Also, red card is an extremely skill intensive card in many scenarios.
>>56893423Good one bro
>>56892825I've come to the conclusion that:>playing is fun, but the mechanics are very simple so the skill ceiling is low >however it doesn't get stale as long as you have different playable decks>Moltres Zard is the consistently strongest deck by far>MistyCuno the strongest with luck or at least in par>3rd is Mew2 which combines both>most decks cannot win against top tier unless heavy rng>fuck Sabrina and fuck Mistyhow many did I get wrong?Bonus, how do you rate Nidoking + queen deck? I love it in theory, but in practice it's slow as shit. Had I Muk I would make NidoMuk
>>56893348That sounds kinda fun. I wanna try that
>>56893416I'm assuming you're lacking cards for this list? Usually people would prefer you post the decklist you'd play if everything was available.
>>56893426>how many did I get wrong?>it doesn't get stale as long as you have different playable decksthis is one
I'm going to reroll for Sabrina hopefully I get her before this week is over
>>56893416Am I really supposed to be playing with only 10 pokemon and the rest trainers/items?
>>568934162x charmander2x charmeleon1x charizard2x charizardEX1x heatmor1x moltresEX2x potion2x X speed2x pokeball2x professor's research1x giovanni2x sabrina
>>56892927Articuno niggers that get lucky on turn one never get a thanks.If you have the winning attack and you waste my time by doing unnecessary shit before attacking you don't get a thanks.
What do I use with Misty if I just started and I don't have Articuno Ex or Starmie Ex? I have Blastoise Ex but he sucks shit.
>>56893426I've never lost to a nido deck, and i've only lost once to a dark deck in general
>>56893426Game is fun a high skill ceiling, especially a red card etc. Pika is the simplest deck to execute well. I've played only mewtwo and I'm having lots of fun trying to play perfectlyZard is solidly tier two behind mewtwo and pikaMewtwo is extremely consistent if you're not a retard playing extra basicsThere are lots of tier 2-3 decks that have good matchups against one of the tier one decks.Fuck misty is correct. Sabrina is integral to the gameplay and deck construction and the game would be more boring without her.I actually played nidos 3x today, finishing 2-1 Mewtwo faggot btw
>>56893418>Also pika is more forgiving and easier to play.I really don’t agree. Pika has a more complex game plan and win con in most games. My theory is that people are learning how to exploit the weaknesses of pika as the game goes on, namely the deck’s underwhelming damage output after turn 7 or so. It’s difficult to take out two mewtwo ex even when your opponent is a moron, you know? When they understand how to dodge certain traps, the odds feel bad for pika. Maybe you could say deck building for mewtwo is less straightforward. Needing basics for pika streamlines a lot of choices.>People are retarded and often play additional basics instead of fossilsFossils certainly seem good in mewtwo. I really think mewtwo is just as good as pika if not a little better right now, or at the very least, I think the mewtwo vs pika matchup is close to even.
I only play dark to get matched up against M2 niggers
>>56893406I’ve played OU and Duel at a decently high level and this game is way more forgiving with rng imo. I feel like I have so much room to outplay that even if I don’t get the card I need or the flip I need, I /was/ back in the game. Other games can ruin you off 1 or 2 bad turns
>>56893021
>>56893430No, this is what I use. I was lucky enough to pull those without spending a dime. I might start using the second Moltres ex once I get that, but then again I like how the regular one only has one retreat cost combined with no water weakness.>>56893436There's no space for Giovanni in my deck because Charizard does all the attacking, and it always kills. I guess there are situations where it could be used for Slash, like one hitting Golduck in a water matchup. I guess Heatmor could have some use, though. I prefer Rapidash because it has 100 HP so it lives through one full Pika ex attack without Giovanni.
>>56893424I'm sorry but there is no complexity in the retreat situations. They're so blatantly obvious every single time. I don't know what you get out trying to act like this game requires any skill. You're not good for winning in this game. I have like a 25-6 record and I can tell you right now, it's not because I'm some super genius that sees moves that nobody else can see. My opponent see the toddler level moves just as well as I do. I simply have a better deck and/or drew better.
>>56893443Lapras EX or Gyarados
I bought the green erika coin.
>>56893468I wish I liked Erika enough to buy it
>>56893449Yeah, I thought Pika was brainless until you actually have to pilot it against another Pika deck. It just does so well against a lot of other decks that it feels brainless when you're playing against it. Still hate faggots playing the deck though.
>>56893457Give me some examples of your "outplays".
>Mistyfag times out because I win with Arbok-Sab in the dying moments Only reason it took that long is because the Arboks were #3 and #1 to topdeck pal
>>56893435Most will tell you that 10 Pokemon is really stretching it and 8 is preferable. And yes, Trainer cards have been the bread and butter of TCG since day one.
>>56893408How can you even win that matchup that easily? You must be getting a lot of luck in finding Ralts line and the oppo not getting inferno dance heads.Hypothetically:Turn 2 2 Ralts 1 Mew2 Ex with energy benchedMoltres Ex gets 1 energy on CharT3Kirlia Mew2 2eMolt 1e Char 2e (0 from Inferno dance)Turn 4Garde Mew2 3Now you got 1 kirlia in front and 1 Mew2 ex in the back with 3e. If you stay in, Moltres will continue fuel Char and you'll lose in 2 turns. What do you even do? With 2 pokeballs and Oak, getting 1 charmander is highly probable, so unless they cannot get the evo by turn 6, Mewtwo Ex dies and unless you have a backup one by then you lose. Granted that you get Gardevoir that easily.What I mean is in average luck, MoltZard stomps you. Might be wrong but I don't see it
>>56893450 Very tough matchup. I expect dark to get way better next set.Also of they make it 30 cards decks, Mewtwo will likely be absolutely terrible
>>56893487Neat, thanks
Moltres isn't even a particularly good partner for Charizard. It's painfully average. Just play Rapidash and Kangaskhan.
>>56893382Wholesome
>>56893461I guess i could take out heatmor and giovanni in favour of ponyta/rapidash, but those two just seem like extra steps and extra pieces. I think i prefer gio/heatmor because it gives me a little more opportunity to be aggressive earlier, but then again i've never tried it your way. I'll have to give it a shot (although i don't have a regular moltres
>>56893427It is very fun, I recommend.

>play 5 games in both the event and casual queues>literally zero thanksthe fuck is wrong with people today?
>lose two sabrina wonder picks that were in the same place on each pick>zero sabrinas from pulls along with charmanders or charmeleons after 15 packs This game is boring and I can't see a lot of people sticking with it after a month.
>>56893522why would they thank you
>>56893507MONKEY TROUBLE
>>56893448How is using red card high skill? You cannot guarantee that using it is a good play, and to see if it's favourable you just need basic probability maths. Like other anon say, the game usually has a clear best play and it comes down to which card you can draw. >>56893496you are trolling right? I cannot see a scenario where with same level of luck MoltZard loses ever. Even PikaEx that has partial type advantage, loses.
>>56893515Mankey is unironically good
For all the collector anons, this has a spreadsheet that lets you put in what cards you own and it'll calculate what's the best pack to go for to try to get new stuff. Unfortunately it's a leddit link, but what can ya do?https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/1fu76x4/a_spreadsheet_for_tcg_pocket_that_calculates_the/
>>56893468Was it worth it anon? Be honest
>>56893528i've literally never not hit thanks, i just want my tranny tickets
>>56893489Gard, 2nd mewtew, or Sabrina will win me the game and will oak that's like half my deck sar
>>56893536I'm more of a vibes guy than a spreadsheet guy
>>56891822Soul, you stupid nigger faggot. You pulled more cards after this.You're black listed on /vp/ forever now.
>>56893468I would judge, but the moment there's a Misty set I'm going to pay up
>>56893542Wonder picks don't automatically show the last pack pulled, it's entirely random
>>56893532>you are trolling right?No. Moltres feels insanely weak every time I either see it or use it myself. I only lose against it when they hit massive highrolls.
>>56893448>Zard is solidly tier two behind mewtwo and pikaIt's not and I don't know how many more times do I need to wipe the floor with your mutants and waifus until you realize that. The only Psychic deck that is a threat to Charizard is Jynx/Zam, both of which punish overly indulging in energy stacking. When set up properly, Molt+Zard wins against Mewtwo every time, purely because of how much easier the energy generation is. You rely on evolutions to supply Mewtwo with constant stream of energy, I can just set up a big stack of Fire energies with a basic mon and safely stall until I get my evo cards. Switch to 1-point fodder if forced by Sabrina.
how are they gonna handle FOMO and cosmetics like that, I can see them putting more paypig cosmetics on the shop for waifus and the battlepass
>>56893540by the time you have Gard, they have Zard with the same luck, Aka you are losing 2 mons in the next 2 turns. I don't know which jeets you're playing but average iq individuals cannot lose with MoltZard unless heavy rng
>>56893542Based retard
>>56893546I don't believe you.
>>56893557Black friday exclusives + discounts in a 9 days bros...
>>56893511Im glad Primeape got his own Pokemon Special thing. Was cute.
>>56893547Moltres generates an average of 1.5 energy per turn for Charizard, doesn't take long for him to be overflowing with energy
>>56893479Sure, I mean the game is more stable so it's not gonna be shit like Thunderbolting an Excadrill with Raikou and sniping the Gyarados that comes in because you predicted a double switch. When I say 'outplay' I mean it in the literal sense of being smart about my moves, playing to a win condition, considering what my opponent might have/might do and playing around that. Of course there is a random element with the deck, but if you know how to stall when you're behind and flip, or how to handle big threats, then you can manage the game pressure and stack the odds in your favor each turn you survive. Yeah, there are coin flips but the matches are seldom decided on one of them, I don't play Pika but they use Zapdos as a wincon only because they have to.If you want actual examples of big dick plays then shit like bluffing an evolution you don't have before going for a Sabrina/XSpeed combo kill, or using a Koga->Arbok trap on a big threat with Weezing. This also goes hand in hand with knowing and understanding the game state, ie knowing your gambit is directed at the right target and at the right time rather than doing it just to do it
>>56893547Which deck? As I explained before, and this anon corroborated >>56893550, Mewtwo ex loses straight up unless the oppo cannot find charmander. My experience with Pikachu Ex is that I also lose unless they roll 0 energy or cannot find evo material
>>56893575Ok
>>56893515Mankey is an upgrade over the regular form. Butterfree is a bit rare in the normal packs.
How long until a new set of cards?How long until you can trade?How long until we get shiny pokemon cards?
>>56893578Yes thank you anon I know math. It feels extremely weak to not be doing any damage for several turns.
>>56893515>>56893535What makes mankey and clefairy good? What's the strategy behind hurting yourself
>>56892919>>Opened dozens of charizard and still dont even have half of everythingHow many Pikachu and mewtwo packs did you open and what are you going for with your wonder picks?
>>56893542don't bully him fag, it doesn't auto select the wonder pack anyways
The only thing I hate more than Pokemon gotcha games is the shear amount of shillmons in them.
>>56893341Rare Candy is good for Mewtwo but not because of that reasonRare Candy gives a general turn advantage and can swing energy into your favor via Gard while replacing two cards you don't really need as there's not a lot of good supporters, not to mention increasing the chance to get your Gard out
>>56893591Primeape does 100 damage for two energy if he's been damaged before.
>>56893589couple weeksno ideanever, ideally
>>56893584I didn't say that Mewtwo beat Charizard, anon. I said that Moltres felt weak.
>>56892927If they immediately attack me I'll let them hit me.If they used a deck I don't like, Articuno, I leave if I didn't draw well I leave if they do a bunch of stuff during their turn before hitting me, I leave
>>56893590Oh well as long as it feels that way to you it must be true
>>56893590Like the Mewtwo ex deck right? A very middling one indeed. Farfetched only Chads dish out hefty 40 since turn 2 am i right
>>56893602Then say which deck you're using, fagProbably an artshitcuno gambler
Rare Candy but you flip a coin and it's random. Hire me.
>>56893607>>56893608>>56893610How about you guys just try putting other pokemon in your deck instead of copying the exact same list everyone else uses (and nobody ever experiments with, ever, because they all say the same thing "everyone else uses it so it's the best")
The elegant grass gentleman is simply too far above the peasantry of fire folk to be compared, any other wood men here?
>>56892927I do concede when I know I'm boned, but sometimes if the back and forth was disputed and fun I'll let them get their final hit in as recognition of a good game.I try to give thanks always, but sometimes games just aren't fun and I'm not immune to being salty. That said, winning or losing makes no difference, as long as the match was entertaining.
>>56893578Funny thing is, you don't even particularly need to rely on Moltres ex to fully power up the Zard. If you manage to get Charmander out on turn 1, you can stall with say, regular Moltres and Rapidash (100 HP, free retreat with X Speed, awards 1 point) and then pull out the Zard with 5 energies, you're guaranteed to win if they have an ex out.
>>56893626First make a convincing argument why quickly generating energy for the Pokemon that can one-shot everything in the game is not a viable tactic
Reddit are saying the energy gen mechinic + prize mechs made for Pocket are really good compared to the main gameIs that true? I never played the main game
>>56893640It's basically bad vs bad but its okay because it makes games faster.
>>56893640Energy mechanic sucks for multi type decks, no prizes for beating an opponents card like in real tcg
>>56893640Apples and oranges.
>>56893640It is true. In the main game energy are cards you put in your deck so you are reliant on drawing them or retrieving them from the deck in other ways. Prizes are cards from your deck so you are randomly locking yourself out of six cards from your deck until you claim them. Pocket highlights some ways the TCG could improve for sure
>>56893216are you the based anon with the Heliolisk deck?
>It's the year 2030, retards still beg for friends by showing their pulls and others complain the pack doesn't show up in their wonder trade.>Nothing will ever change.
>>56893638>you're guaranteed to win if they have an ex out.>*laughs in pincurchin*I have stolen a few games.
>>56893640>play Dragonite >generate 5 electricity in a row, no water>lose
>>56892946I did the advanced missions plus ALL of the solo battles and used my wonder picks a lot. I bought plenty of wonder pick hour glasses and snagged a ton of ex from wonder pick. Plus the solo battles and their challenge missions gave me roughly 20 more packs or so. maybe 25 or so. Plus I started the free trial immediately and I've been playing since day 1 world release. Right now I'm at about 100 packs opened I have several decks. Full Pikachu ex deck and some fun weezing decks, and some make shift fighting, grass, fire, and water decks. I do miss opening dozens of packs at once, but I wouldn't give up so my cards to do so again. At this point it's pretty satisfying hunting for specific cards so I can try different decks.
>>56893639I didn't say it wasn't viable, I said it felt weak. I'm pretty sure Moltres EX is a big reason why Pikachu has such an insane winrate vs. Charizard, for instance.
Thanks for putting down a fossil and giving me the win, retard nip
Was playing my Poli's and got going first three games in a row against Zapdos decks.
>>56893669Interesting. Have you noticed if Pikachu EX has an insane winrate against other decks or is Charizard the outlier here
>>56893640The regular game has 6 prizes composed of cards from your deck. You place the top 6 face down as prize cards before the game starts. Each time you lose a pokemon you take a prize card and add it to your hand, losing the game when you draw the last one. The energy are just cards you can run an unlimited number of, so you need to draw them rather than it just generating each turn.I like the prizes better here since you don't risk something important being stuck in your prize cards. The energy is good since you don't need to draw it, which means draw power in the game can be much lower(to give you an idea, the real game's professor Oak draws 7 cards.) However duel energy is severly fucked in pocket. You can get RNG screwed whereas in the actual game you have them in your hand and can pick and choose what and when you use.
>>56893659Before Moltres+Zard, I used this really wacky Lightning deck which had Zebstrika and Eelektross. Pincurchin saved my ass a couple of times against supposedly top-tier decks, including Mewtwo and Zard. I think I switched to Cinccino then for some dollar store Pikachu experience.
>>56893669I have almost full Pikachu Ex (1 zapdos short) and I guarantee you that MoltZard wins unless they get unlucky
>>56893669At full power, Pikachu doesn't clear Moltres ex even when boosted with Giovanni. I can just switch to Rapidash to stall for one or two more turns which gives me more time to power up Zard. Once I'm up to five energies upon entry, the game is over for the ratfucker.
>>56893049>>56893262I try to use Grimer/muk absolutely last. He's my late game threat. I've been thinking of trying nidoking in place of muk but I'd have to give up an extra support card.
>>56893692exactly. Only way i see to win is some zapdos ex shenanigans but even then you cannot get 5 energies before Charizard comes out (2 pika 3 zapdos)
>>56893681He’s a sneaky little guy. I never want to feed pincurchin energy while running my pika deck, but it’s certainly a backup plan. Anything that helps me dumpster a setup, full-health zard can’t be all bad.
>>56893707I once rolled two pincurchin paralyzes into the three heads needed from zapdos ex (who hit the 4/4 heads to show off, I guess). Some combination of these cards is your only out to zard. Not very likely, but never scoop until it’s over.
I actually very rarely see Mewtwo. Lots of water, lots of Pikachu, a little bit of Zard and fighting, but almost never Mewtwo.
>>56893679It's just what the data says. Pikachu generally has >50% winrates but it's like 60% vs Charizard.>>56893682>>56893692>>56893707Well you do not beat Pikachu, statistically, so you're wrong.
>>56893597That's what I said
>>56893507I haven't gotten 1 clefairy yet
>>56893238I've a FA Surge literally burning a hole in my binder because I don't use Surge and there's a lot of shit I'd trade him for. When is DeNA gonna stop jewing us and add trading?
>>56893724Well I'm not a retard, so I have never lost to a Pikachu (and only once to Mewtwo due to unlucky draws).
>>56893724Nigger I'm the one playing pikachu. Also where are the stats from?
>>56893370>>56893339>>56893321I don't mind trading my weezing to trap and revenge kill a Pikachu. I give up 1 prize and they give up 2. Then I Sabrina out their Pikachu and kill something else for a third point. That's often how my matches vs pika goes. I lose if I don't draw weezing and koga in time.

>>56893735One of Jeff Hoogland's metagame videos. It's worth mentioning that all Pikachu decks currently carry counterplay for Charizard, either via Pinchurchin, Zebstrika, or Raichu.
>get rainbow sparkles>see suspiciously gold card edge>get excited.. >then remember I'm opening a 'zard packs and golds are uggo anywayWould've rather the immersive desu. Still a nice FTP flex though I guess
>>56893489M2 doesn't NEED Gard in the next two turns to win. Charmander needs Zard.If those turns continue without Meleon or Zard being drawn, Mewtwo Psydrives Moltress and practically wins. Average luck ISN'T that both sides get Gard and Zard in the next two turns; it's neither. You're using the best case scenario for Zard, when the usual case scenario is that Zard loses.
I haven't played any tcg since first edition. And my pulls are all 5 Snoms or some fucking fullart that I can't use, no inbetween. Hard to play with one Mewtwo ex, a Chansey and 40 Meowths.Excited for the hacked trades whenever that happens lmao

Got full art Dragonite from wpick today and it's real fun when you get it out, now I see why so many people were running it when I was doing 50 wins event (I think it was 2nd most common deck I was running into with first being usual misty bs)
>>56893724I don’t necessarily disagree, but I would be more skeptical of early trends if I were you. The meta game is changing all the time, and some of what many perceive as fact seems a little off base to me. Time will tell.

>>56893842Magikarp to 40 HP. Ramps him up by one water energy. This way, if you start second, you can attach a water, get a water, and on the next turn attach another water. If you get head just ONCE from Las Vegas Prostitute on either of these turns, you can start blasting with hyper beam.
>>56893813Give me a (You) next time you faggot.
>facing a poison mirror match>we also seem to have the exact same hand>I win simply because I went 2nd
>>56893814Not him. I wouldn’t say powerless, but it’s rough when you’re banking on a 3% chance win con. Pika seems more consistent than zard, so I don’t think it’s a wash of a matchup, even as more players adapt. If pika has a slow game? Zard likely wins. If pika starts swinging for 90 on turn 5? Pika likely wins.

why do the max rarity cards look like shit? is it intentional?
>>56893854First because if the spreadsheet creator is hacking cards, I'm also fucked. Second, because you're prompted to make your own copy so it's not like you put any information on an external hosted file. Third, because there's no card information input anywhere and finally fourth, because I'm a trustworthy anon, bud!
>>56893888What if I still do, despite your demands?
I actually like some of the PLANETA cards like Starmie
>>56893907I actually think so. The rarity is the desirable aspect so they know they can save the more aesthetically pleasing art for lower rarities. That way some are compelled to chase both

>>56893842give magikarp more health. Maybe. a chance to gain more energy. lower gyarados energy to 3 or keep it at 4 but give more damage.4 energy for only 1 damage is shit. It one shots pretty much nothing important for so much investment. Retreat cost is too high too. but I don't mind it staying high if he were actually good.
>>56893769they should add ranked but the only reward it gives you are is a medal when you reach each rank and a single "play 1 ranked match" mission. That way it could serve as a containment zone for sweaty tryhards.
>There's already a hack out that de-obscures the wonder pick resultsDamn, that's useful.
>>56893925I am. My next pack is available in 3 hours and 41 minutes. It's agonizing. A whale on my friends list already has the Mew card and only has 12 online wins. I think if I just spent a little money I'd have peace of mind until the mini set releases, but I know the peril in that line of thinking
>tfw have all three immersive rares as a f2pFeels good bros.
>>56893913I will curse you to never get the card you want in Wonder Pick.
>>56893939Based, can you share any more information on it? Is it Android only?
>>56893946Joke's on you, that already happens to me.
>>56893947It works on androids and it's called Haywood.
>>56893954Hay, wood you like to sniff my balls?
>>56893945I have the Charizard and Pikachu one.The Mewtwo one looks like shit and I don't want it.I'd much rather have the full art cards for Zapdos and Moltres.
>>56893967>The Mewtwo one looks like shitAre we looking at the same Immersive?
>>56893945>got Mewtwo full art and Mewtwo immersive>got Charizard immersive and Charizard crown>only just started opening Pikachusfeeling good
>>56893969Agree, Mewtwo is kinoI love the hidden Mew
>Pretend to take a long time when you get a brickhand so it looks like you’re thinking about evolutions and future plays so the opp Red Cards itDidn’t actually work against the Japanese player who skillfully played it at the perfect moment instead on the game-deciding turn, but I got my shit back anyways so I know RNGesus respected the hustle
>>56893969The one where he's getting backshot?
>>56893982immersives have little movies when you get them
>>56893982Can't believe Nintendo mandated that Yoshi backshots be taken and given to Mewtwo how cruel
>>56893977I never noticed the Mew before, nice
>when you are losing from a bad opener back to back you start to question the deckIt's hard to play the game with a solo Vulpix for 3 consecutive matches...
>>56893954I can't find it.
>>56893999Blaine? I had the same issue for a bit, but it got better. The deck IS strong, but like most of the B-tier decks it just kind of buckles if the big decks atm get to hit their snowball cards.
>Reddit is full of Articunts who think it's a good way to play the gameWhy of course. What did I expect?
>>56894010I actually carry 5 basics with one being a Farfetch'd, but the game just decides to give me the 2/5. But yeah, this deck is clearly efficient since it got me up to 42 wins now
Am I the only one here with no immersive or crowns? How does everyone have them? Aren't they super rare?
My lightning mon suck so here's me getting btfo
>>56893888I have like 8 of each because this game wants to give me everything besides a garde
>>56894025The Lapras AI actually got a win on me today. Lucky Golduck opening kneecapped me hard.BTFO it the next match though.
>>568940225 basics is definitely the way to go. I'm trying out Magmar rn but will probably go back to Heatmor, not tanky or hard hitting enough to justify two energy.
>when you get the 4 heads with Jolteon
>>56894024I managed to f2p pull an immersive Charizard a couple of days ago and today an immersive Mewtwo. I'm focusing on getting Ralts line now so the pissrat will have to wait.
>>56894024I rerolled for 3 days
I'm now at 4 Charizard EX, 4 Machamp EX, 2 Moltres EX, 0 Exeggutor EX, 0 Starmie EX. Trading can't come soon enough
>>56894024the secret is to not want to build Pikachu, charizard or mewtwo decks.
>>56894040>when the opponents marowak gets double tails 4 turns in a row
Give us free stuff you greedy cunts. A good gacha would do at least that much.
>>56894066DENASHITThe welcome gift being a ticket we can’t use is certainly A Decision
>>56894024They can show up in either slot 4 of 5 of a pack, and between the chances of both there's like a ~1% chance of immersive per pack, ~0.2% chance of a gold.Means that all the day 1 FtP guys with 100+ packs opened have a decent shot of having at least one by now, especially if they rerolled. And obviously anyone who gets one is super likely to post it to stroke their epeen a little
>>56894066This is actually an insane number considering Fate/Grand Order is on its 10th year and just hit this many downloads.
>>56894066The copium is that they will only give rewards once the number stabilize
>>56894075Pokemon being too big to fail strikes againThey probably made billions off of this game already
Fuck off and kill yourself, Marowak EX. I HATE you.
>>56894075covid killed them
>>56894081UNGA me flip tails for master
>>56893813If I played a tournament I would win with my oddball anti-meta homebrew.
>>56894081Las Vegas Bonehead has chosen you as his champion.
>>56894066This is not a good gacha
>>56893899Almost literally me.
>>56894081I hate that I didn’t know about the starter decks and picked Pikachu and got stuck with Arcanine. Still haven’t pulled a single Marowak Ex and it’s gonna take a lot of pack points to make 2 :(
>>56894106Reroll?
>>56893925At least the game gives you 2 packs (3 if premium) per day to pull, so that satisfies the itch. A pity you can't stack them for more adrenaline, but it is what it is
>>56894106While Arcanine definitely looks bad compared to the other two, I heard it has good results in recent tournament since it's faster to set up than Charizard
I WANT TO OPEN PACKS AIIIIIEEEEEEEEE
>>56894128Well they're right there, anon. Just go use your credit card like a good consumer would. Or, go ask your parents.
>>56894115When they release new sets they better have extra events that give hourglasses or those sets are going to be an absolute bitch to get.
Is this currency for trannies?
>>56894146It's for Sylveonbros
>>56894146Took you two weeks to notice?
>>56894080Trillions a day.
>>56894159no one is spending that currency.
>>56894163Moron
>>56894109In too deep now I’m just dealing. Still have some other fun decks and an optimal Pika Ex deck.>>56894125That’s encouraging.
>>56894169>Moronsince no one is spending it, they don't notice the trannyness of it.
>>56894135They're both dead :/
This game is really unbalanced fuckin garbage why won't they at least enable auto play vs people so I don't have to endure it
>>56894180>This game is really unbalanced fuckin garbage why won't they at least enable auto play vs people so I don't have to endure itkinda defeats the purpose of PVP if you use the computer to play for you.

>>56894066>DeNA>giving free stufflmao, you can already see the current state of the game after just two weeks and you think they care about giving rewards?
>>56894188Could be very good trade fodder later on depending on how the system is gonna work.

>>56892867just sent you a friend request anon
>>56894188It sucks.
I caved and bought the Garde-pack She was too cute to pass on.
>>56893909>>56893536Thanks. for some cards I wanted a second copy I marked it as if I didn't have one.
>>56894163Anon they give you enough tranny coins to pull 10x
>>56894202While recycling sync pairs, powercreeping their previous versions and increasing the amount of gems needed to spark them. And they better offer freebies in Masters because that game has nothing going for it.
>>56894053Wonder pick.
>>56894211You will never be a woman.
>>56894220I've had no good wonder picks for a week
>>56894075Probably rerolls mostly
>>56894224Can I be a pokemon fucker instead?
>>56894224Jesus, relax.
>>56894224You'll be a woman once I'm through with you.
Fun fact. The original Misty from the actual game was just a slightly weaker Blaine. I'm kinda sad that the gym leaders don't all have an effect based on their signature mons since it'd be flavorful.Also not sure why they gave Oak Bill's effect when they could have just used Bill.
>>56894237Because no one likes Bill
>>56894224Isn't liking cute pets literally the point of Pokemon?>>56894232Why would you want to be mentally ill?>>56894236You will never be a man.
>>56894224How can I fuck her if I'm a woman??
>>56893899>>56894103I have 93 unused hourglasses and 50 wonder pick hour glasses
What effects could they give to the e4?
>>56894211I would buy it too IF IT WASN'T 90 OF MY COUNTRY COIN!
I really want the full art Zapdos EX card. It looks so cool.But I also want the full art Moltres.Should I roll zard packs and just spend pack points for Zapdos?
>>56894253Male Gard on Female Trainer... hot...
>>56894250>Isn't liking cute pets literally the point of Pokemon?There is no point. Not sure what made you think otherwise.
>>56894253You can't fuck him (his name is SIR Knight). And no matter what, it's a cartoon and you can't have sex with your computer monitor.
>>56894195I would still have 2, it only cost 1 to make him sparkle
>>56894216You moved the goalposts like fifty times in that post haha
What Pikachu EX has the highest win rate?Is it the ones with Zapdos?
>>56894253God Gardevoir is so fucking ugly.
>>56894269Her name is サーナイト, I don't see the SIR anywhere.
>>56894261I don't think its worth it.
>>56894163Why not?
>>56894277Not him but that shit is rad as fuck.
>>56894202That’s because they had to, it was a kusoge on launch
>>56893840I should have listened, had a full art Gyarados earlier but I gave in to the top right pressure
>>56894276Official translation. You want to fuck a man, homo.
>>56893840>be bottom right chad>get card I want with wonder pick>decide that statistically speaking getting a double success on the same one would be more unlikely that it being on another random card, so pick middle for the very next wonder pack instead.>it's on the bottom right>it was an alt art SabrinaI will never again stray from the path
>>56894187the games are decided by turn 4 you think you play yugioh or something?
I should wait to use the free 2 weeks premium right before the next missions start to double dip right?
>>56894297The AI is going to put the energy on the wrong Pokemon. That's the problem.
I will play Pocket until /ourguy/ comesThen quit
>>56894293Sorry, I don't read nor speak romanji, you filthy gaijin, project your homosexuality on someone else.
>>56894293That's cuz she says "sir" at "night" if you get my drift (she gets FUCKED and is polite about it)
>>56894261>full art Zapdos EXWhich one? Both are badass. You should probably wait for trades since you might be able to easily get it that way. Personally, I didn't want to wait so I rerolled until I got it because Zapdos is my favorite mon>>56894274You should have at least one Zapdos and a minimum of six basics total in your deck, but 7-8 or even nine is better
>>56894307>>56894308>o- official translations don't count>i- i swear im not a homosexual!!>p- plz! i just want to fuck the animals
would you fuck a male gardevoir
>>56894310>Which one?The 2D art one. Also, how do you deal with multiple Mewtwo on the field if you don't run Zebstrika and chip the Mewtwo in the back so Pika can one shot on switch.
>>56894319But what about the translation implies that Gardevoir is the sir knight and isn't just a maiden saying sir knight? They say their own names after all.
Why do regular cards have better art than EXs? And why are crowns so fucking ugly?
>>56894302alright but not always! and the auto clicker finna be running for a long time so in the end you you if your winrate is positive only gain from it
>>56894327Because the rarest stuff are always the most gaudy shit ever
>>56894326>But what about the translation implies that Gardevoir is the sir knight and isn't just a maiden saying sir knight?>They say their own names after all.I honestly can't tell if you're actually retarded, or pretending to be retarded. You literally explain the answer to your own question. Pokemon say their own name. Also, that picture is just them showing the Pokemon's name in-game.
Wonder pick love!
>>56894323I'd let a male Garde fuck me>>56894327because japan has shit tastes
>>56894336gratz!
>>56894335>Pokemon say their own name.So Wobbufett (Sonans) is the literal meaning of "that's the way it is"?Just because they say something doesn't mean it applies to them, they could just be saying it.
>>56894323No. Its just a dress attached to a ball of cabbage, its stupid looking regardless of its gender.
>>56894325Uh just kill it? The Mewtwo in the back has no energy.
>>56893660Why doesn't the energy alternate, Bandit?
I like this game. I have a decent psychic deck and managed to get around 10 wins. At what point should i stop opening packs and save for whatever comes later? This doesn’t feel like other mobile games where im rolling to get my dick hard
>>56894349Its probably your fault.
>>56894325I don't think it's a problem, Mewtwo is too slow to get going unless they get Garde going asap and you get a bricked hand that can't get Pikachu going right away
>>56894357Also I like Electrode over Zebstrika just because of the zero retreat cost. Makes me less reliant on having an X Speed in my hand, and even if I do have one, then I can save it to use on Pikachu or Zapdos. I can definitely see the merit in Zebra, just not my preference
>>56894342>all Japanese names have other spellingsYou're just now realizing this?Also, you're trying so hard to be obtuse. Just get over it and accept the official translation.
>>56894344No shit. Because I forced it to switch out two times. Can you not tell what that board state is?>>56894357>>56894363I've gotten so many snipes in the back with Zebstrika. I honestly wouldn't want to play without it.I don't have the best deck. I still use 2 Hiliolisk.
>>56894188I'll just wait for trade option before I start applying flairs on those promo cards. Could be invaluable as trading fodders, as some mentioned
Wow the Blaine deck is the most fun I had with this game. Its powerful enough not to instant lose to meta and has 0 rng involved, beating a mistytranny deck with this based Blaine is some sort of poetic justice.
I'm not allowed to have Blaine unless I spend my pack points on him
>>56894391The board state is you're attacking. The active pokemon is Pikachu EX doing 90 damage. The opponent's active Pokemon is Mewtwo EX with 90 HP. Nobody else on the opponent's board has any energy. Fucking hit it.
>>56894353I assume you can stop spending hourglasses once you have around 4-5 working decks.
>only draw Charmeleon ever>never have Charizard or Charmander when I need it>never start out with Pokeball+Oak but the CPU always seems toAll I can do is concede and try again. Fuck this game.
>>56894404I only need to spend PP on one copy, but it's definitely worth it. The deck is cheap and competitive enough
>>56894412Forgot the pic
>>56894410Yeah, you're dumb as fuck.First off, the opponent in that screen shot had already forfeited. Secondly, the only reason that board was in that state was because of Zebstrika chip damage. The Mewtwo on the field in that screen shot was only low health in range for the Pika to kill it.Lastly, the game was over either way. Because I had 1 point, and killing the Mewtwo would end the game.
>>56894385>he couldn't refute itJust get over it and accept Gardevoir is a maiden saying Sir knight.
>>56894420>RCDeserved
>>56894419Well that and even after having 4 Charizard EX and 4 Machamp EX I only pulled my first Ninetails today, I need another Ninetails and another Vulpix. I'm looking at 240 pack points to complete Blaine if I don't pull any of the cards, that's 24 days worth of pack points!
>>56894402Post deck
>>56894429And what exactly is your point here? Was I supposed to know Japanese? Was I supposed to know that score even though it's not in the fucking screenshot (how is this even relevant?)? The only one dumb here is you asking dumbass questions.
>>56894302I don't think its putting energy on the wrong pokemon. I think sometimes it's just playing the long game and trying to keep energy on everything in case of getting Sabrina'd
Hell yeah
>>56894457Based
Is there a trick to coin flippingHow have i soft reset 1 expert match for 2 hours (probably 60 or 70 times) and gotten no more than 1 heads on misty?I can understand 2 or 3 every now and again but its either 1 or none and the ai gets 5 or 6 heads per starmie/articuno
>>56894457>enemy evolves bulbasaur every turn>cant do anything about it
>>56894466its completely fucking riggedif i had to guess its about 30% tails, 70% heads. they don't even try to hide it. if there was a way to sit there and flip coins all fucking day i would do it and post results, just to prove a point
>>56894442>Was I supposed to know Japanese?Uh, yes? If you're going to try and comment on something you shouldn't be ignorant of the facts. So if you don't know, don't talk. Duh.And you aren't even talking about the point. Which is that without Zebstrika, and if you go first, it's almost impossible to pressure Mewtwo.
>>56893068>to be a dick for no reasonIf the stuff you get is garbage, it's actually incredibly altruistic to switch sharing offMeans that there is the chance that you're forcing the garbage stuff you get to clog somebody else's feed
1.0.7 update.. 1mb.. so no datamines..
>>56894474I know it sounds farfetched what im saying but im not exaggerating. I havent flipped more than 1 heads on misty since i started playing this gameHow do the memes say everyone is getting heads? There has to be a trick to flipping the coin
>>56894490its either 6 heads or first tails
>>56894474>H*arthstone schizo found his way hereI hate cardgameniggers so much.
>>56894491I've never even gotten 2 heads. I wanna delete this game because i cant even build any other decks with all the cards i got. Im literally stuck unless i pay money or reroll because the game stops giving you chances to pull and the pulls are 90% dupes instead of 80% of the missing cards
>>56894508>>56894508>>56894508
Lugia EX is going to powercreep Gardevoir Screencap this
>>56894524God I hope so, Lugia is so much sexier.
>>56893640>energy generation mechanics Bad. Original TCG did it better, but you won’t hear this from anybody on Reddit. They think hearthstone is peak game design because it removed mana screw/flooding from Magic not realizing how great a system just having resource cards in your deck is. >Point system Way better than the original TCG. Taking 10% of your deck and putting it off to the side specifically to let you snowball is fucking awful. Glad they didn’t bring it to this game
>>56893257Am I missing something reading the text or is this not literally how evolution works in pocket.
>>56893507Bofetada Gentil seems like a spanish version of bofa deez nuts
So does this include promo? Or can i not use shit like meowth either. It doesn’t have a rarity indicator when i check out thr card
>>56894694The mission says those three specifically. Promo is a different rarity and will ruin your attempt.
I have opened so much mewtwo packs to the point where i'm missing a few shit and continuing to open them feels like a waste. Is spending pocket points the right way to get what i'm missing?
>>56894694No Promos and no Full Arts.
>>56894926i would start opening other packs and wait on using the pack points until trading becomes available to see how it works and use wonder picks to try to get what youre missing in the meanwhile
