>>56912281I'm at like 210 points, should I just convert for the 2nd Gardevoir? I failed WP today for it and it's getting on my nerves.
To hoard or not to hoard?
Post your hopes/expectations for Johto leader supporters in January
>>56912302Hoard.In gacha games the release day content is always shit a year later.
Weezingchads... Soon...
>>56912281Should I add meowth to my weezing arbok deck? Flavor is great and the draw is good, but it just seems like I go through my mons too fast sometimes.
I love this fat fuck
>>56912281I'm really thinking of crafting a 2nd raichu so I can do a surge deck.
I really don't want set 2 to be Johto, set 3 to be Hoenn etc.So fucking tired of every new Pokemon thing being released in generational waves. I don't want to wait two years to see the Ultra Beasts, man.
Business idea: put a Vulpix in your deck
Misty
New meta deck incoming, this is WILD to pilot, it’s literally like being god, you get to pick both your own and your opponents hand. Warning! This may ruin other decks for you when you see how good it feels.
>>56912345She was very nice to me today, won all my games
>>56912311Counterpoint: the original 151 will always be iconic, securing the immersive Mew will always be a badge of honor for collectors
>>56912304>FalknerEvolve a Pidgey, Pidgeotto, Hoothoot, or Spearow you have in play, grabbing the evo from your deck>BugsyOpponent's active is now poisoned if your active is one of a few listed bugs>Whitney+Damage for Miltank and Miltank-ex>MortySabrina, but you can choose the opponent's new active mon if your active is Gengar or Misdreavus>ChuckDiscard an energy from one of your opponent's monsters at random if your active is Fighting type>JasmineSteel type mons take 50 less damage on your opponent's next turn>PryceIf your active is Piloswine, Mamoswine, Dewgong, or Walrein, paralyze thr defending pokémon>ClairAttach an energy of your choice in type to a Dragon-type
>>56912358Formerly Sneed is absurdly broken
>>56912346Lmao Kangaskhan is the only Pokemon in this deck that survives more than one attack from a full powered Pikachu EX
>>56912358Are you basing these effects based on what their counterparts already do in the TCG, or are you pulling these out of your ass?
I ask again>game ends with 13 card in your deck>10/13 cards were basics / pokeballs / researchAnyone done worse?
>>56912368my ass
>>56912369It's bound to happen to everybody, don't sweat it
>>56912355This+ you don’t know how the game will run, that promo Mankey is a good example of a card that is really good, hard to get, and puts an entire deck online. Having early cards is good because we all know that everything is pivoting to digital, you’ll be happy in 5 years when you come back to this game and you have cards from the release week. Same thing happens to me in magic arena, I can put it down for over a year and come back and at least I can play my legacy deck from years ago in whatever game mode allows it.
>>56912369Does a turn 1 loss when I go second to Articuno count?
>>56912281What are we supposed to do with all of these useless tickets?
>>56912386nothing.And you will be happy
do you think this game has a future?
>>56912397No
>>5691239730 million downloads in the first two weeks? Nah probably not
>>56912397Its not looking good unless they very quickly add more ways to get packs without whaling
>>56912304Double colorless for normal types for Whitney, maybe something to support kingdra for Clair. He's one of my favorites, and something that like attached an energy of a different color than is currently attached could be good for dragons. The fragonite players ITT always complain about getting only one energy type
>>56912397If someone starts a petition to remove dice flips from the game or from future packs then yes.
>>56912397Master SEX, DeNAs other game hit 10milly downloads in 4 days and it's been running for 5 years
>>56912413It's dying
>>56912406In the irl TCG, when Kingdra is a Dragon-type card, he uses water and lightning, just like Dragonite.
>Slots perfectly into colorless Dragonite>Jiggly can stall>Wiggly can stall>Dragonite EX might come in the miniset if it's centered around the elite 4Bros...?
>>56912427Yep this Jiggly's a little champion. I'm hoping for a Dragonite EX too
Butterfree is shit because it doesn't do what it's supposed to do. Healing in general doesn't work as a "control" win condition, because the strongest control decks all have extremely powerful OHKO attacks, or attacks which can outpace even the strongest healing. Blastoise and Charizard can both kill a Venusaur even with two Butterfrees, Erika, two Potions, etc. Maybe the Blastoise can't 100% kill through all of that, I think if you have literally everything it becomes a 2HKO.But otherwise, the actual point of healing is to race SMALL decks. Healing can't help you beat large decks, and can help you beat and out-value small and midrange decks. Therefore, it's not actually a grindy control element like it seems on the tin. Healing with Butterfree every turn lets you squeak out an extra hit vs a Pikachu, not beat the Charizard that's been building up the whole game. And so I feel that Butterfree has no nice. It is promising that you will heal a bunch and stall the game out until you win, when that reality will never really come.
Ever since they removed bent packs, I have now become a lucklet. Opened 7 or 8 packs and zero Ex or any rarity higher. Maybe like 1 or 0 new cards per pack. My wonder picks have also been trash, missed every pick for the last 10 picks.Any adivise from other luckletts? I'm considering changing the time I pull. Any good luck methods youve discovered?
You think they'll play this at Worlds?
>>56912438I hope the optimal deck is 1x each Dragonite and Dragonite ex, or that the ex has a similar RNG attack.Triple KOs with Dragonite are always hilarious.
>>56912441you shake your phone for 3.5 seconds at full blast>playing on emulatorbricked...
>>56912301Once you convert all you will see in WP is Gardevoir.
>>56912380For sure. I wasn’t salty so much as I was chuckling at my dogshit luck. That rando is going to remember the biggest pika flop for a while kek.
>>56912301Ok now I'm glad I didn't convert, what a comeback. My Psychic deck is finally done.
>>56912441Is this how gamblers at a casino talk to each other?
>>56912458I can't believe Garde doesn't have an art rare, do they not like money?
>>56912441No joke, feel the aura. Certain packs just call out to me, same with wonder pick. It hardly feels like luck to me
>>56912441Cover your front-facing camera so your phone can't see how much you are depending on the dopamine from pulling something good
>>56912464>>56912464All of the FAs are for Kanto rn, she'll defs get one for Gen3
>>56912450Kek you're not wrong based on that timing. If I had converted it would've been this one I'd seen so soon again.>>56912464They're sure to make more versions down the road.
FINALLY got a EX Pikachu via Wonder Pick. It's my first copy.
>there is an entire other app with Pokémon cards on itWhy did no one tell me about this? Am I playing on the app for babies and gamblers instead of true Pokémon masters? Anons, did we mess up?
>>56912476thats shit, anonwait for them to make a MD-like app in the modern age
>>56912476We're collectorchads here. Pocket battles are a coin flip.
>>56912476Try it, you'll see that app is hot garbage and how much money is being left on the table by not making a TCG app with this level of polish
anyone else feeling mildly triggered about how "messy" your card collection looks?
When is trading coming? I have a few Arcanine cards I want nothing to do with.
>>56912427This is just Vulpix.
>>56912476if I want to play a real tcg i don't play Pokémon
>>56912493late january
>>56912493Jan they said, main set 2 will come on Jan29, so probably then
finally...... one down one to go
>>56912496>>56912487>>56912482>>56912477I was just testing you anons, looks like you passed. Be sure to stay vigilant.
>>56912397The gacha base that only cares about collecting and opening packs are probably not going anywhereBase game is pretty fun as a duel links player, I'm already used to gimped tcgs slowly ramping up, it'll be fun for a lot
https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1gr7kzk/data_driven_tierlist_returns_now_with_dragonite/interesting stuff
>>56912476The actual pokemon TCG is really, really shitty. Decks are 60 cards, 90% of your gameplay is playing cards that say "search your deck for these three cards and shuffle". Literally there are decks like articuno18 where it's 4 pokemon, 6 energy (energy is cards you draw) and 50 trainer cards. And it's 4 copies of everything for no reason.Like there have been multiple formats where the entire game wasn't decided by the actual pokemon on the board and how their damage interacted with each other and yadda yadda, but by the fact that one pokemon could draw your entire deck and that let you fill your deck up with more sabrinas, giovannis, etc. than the other guy.
>>56912519>Doesn't include Dragonite+EeveelutionsI wish this game showed my full W/L record, it feels like it's over 50%
>>56912491That's what your binder is for to present your cards how you want
>>56912519I play dragokanga, used to play dragochanseyIt only fails me when i get, as you kids call it, bricked
>>56912476I honestly like this game more.
>>56912397I think they need to seriously rework the game but who knows, it's Pokemon, so it'll have some playerbase no matter what.Personally I find that it launched in an unacceptable condition. The meta balancing I can look past since that understandably wants practical analysis before correcting, but there are glaring shortcomings in the resource system, UI, and availability of content/story/campaign/etc.
I hate Mewtwo decks because it feel like gardevoir is cucking me.
>>56912527>I wish this game showed my full W/L record, it feels like it's over 50%That it doesn't is why I play PVP at all. I don't want to see how many times I get cheesed. Like yeah I have a good share of wins but I don't like seeing myself building a large string of losses because of RNG out of my control. If it's not skill-based, I don't want to see it.
>>56912519How do I read this?
>>56912493You will be trading with me, right anon? I've gotten 0 (zero) Arcanine cards and he's my fave
>>56912540Same here, but it's the only deck I can use since I only have bits and pieces of other decks.
>>56912493I have a spare zapdos ex. I'd like another moltres ex or arcanine ex. or starmie ex.
Just backward pack right spin tricked this bad boy, and then my 2nd full art Starmie EX, that full art Starmie is so pretty.
>>56912493I have a 5 Mewtwo EXs. I desperately need a way to trade them for shit like Koga and Weezing that I still don't have.
>>56912548If you somehow still don't have an Arcanine by January, I'll trade you mine.
>>56912552Funny, I know the nature of the pack doesn't matter but you're the 3rd to get gold Char off a backwards that I know of. I got it that way, a friend got it that way, and now I see your post about it.
>>56912553I really don’t believe people still don’t have trainer cards, did you do all the single player missions? Maybe you’re pulling things in the wrong order, did you focus on one deck to make first?
>>56912519The lesson is play with weezingchads or moltress arcanite to farm wins on ladder, 6-4 match up on the otherside is very doable if you shit on the big decks so hard
time for my bi-daily disappointing pack opening
>>56912550al least you're not stuck with las vegas bonehead and dragonite + not a single immersive or crown after 500 cards
What do I do with these spare meowth tickets? I already boughted everything
>>56912558Ily anon
>>56912560Yeah the screen did a unique dark theme also, I think I pulled a mewtwo forewards and it didn’t feel the same.
>>56912519I returned to raichu, and I do think that build is going to be key for the most consistent pikachu decks in this format. You just don’t have an answer to / back up plan for big hp win cons otherwise. I like zebstrika, but potion really detracts from its value. Electrode is also decent, but I don’t think running more than one stage 1 line is a good idea here, especially when electrode’s biggest contribution is as an x speed. Pincurchin still has a place on the team at 1 or 2, I think. The slight boost to pika’s damage consistency is arguably better than slotting in more trainer cards.
How do you get rainbow borders?
>>56912568yup
>>56912568Nah the luck is turned up right now, report back with what you got.
I just turned off the luck lol I'm such a prankster!
>>56912578exeggutor is really goood, that is a good pack
>>56912564I have a full Pikachu EX deck. I just also have 5 Mewtwo EXs. No Koga, no Weezing, no Giovanni, no Marowak, no Articuno, no Golbat, no Gardevoir, no regular Articuno or Mewtwo. I did pack point 1 Giovanni, but I didn't roll it. Just 4 Mewtwo EXs. 2 regular Mewtwo EXs and 2 Immersion art Mewtwo EXs
>>56912578whys that birb doing the hitler salute..?
>>56912578Gimme that Exeggutor
>>56912585I mean I suppose it's better than my average pack from which I get literally no new cards.
I don't have a single Crown card yet...
Wonder pick luck has been insane recently. FA Sabrina, Mewtwo, and now Venusaur.
>>56912519>Arbok beats Mewtwo consistently I started running it like this as an experiment, and like 3 games I came within 10-20 hp/ a lucky potion of beating pikachu decks, maybe a full 2 mienshao line would work? This is mine now tho, do not steal.
>>56912564>>56912586Oh btw, my alt account I have a full Mewtwo deck, and I have 3 Mewtwo EXs on that account, and also no trainers. No Koga, no Weezing, no Golbat, etc. Same exact deal. My alt account I bought 1 Giovanni and 1 Sabrina. The only trainer my alt account has rolled is Misty.
>Pikachu, Charizard, Mewtwo>Red Gyarados, Feraligatr, Lugia>Gardevoir, Blaziken, Rayquaza>Lucario, Empoleon, Arceus>Zoroark, Serperior, Reshiram>Sylveon, Greninja, Zygarde>Mimikyu, Incineroar, Tapu Koko>Toxtricity, Cinderace, Zacian>Gholdengo, Meowscarada, Terapagos
>>56912600>This is mine now tho, do not steal.I'm the one who has been trying to shill Golbat, Mienshao, and Heliolisk though. I just don't have Weezing, or Koga, or Golbat, or even Muk.
>>56912427how to get this jiggly?
>>56912586So you pulled more pika pack than mewtwo? Are you hoarding your tickets or hourglasses or something? The game definitely “locks” some cards that aren’t rare out of your account so you have to buy them with pack points. You’re probably where I was 3 days ago, keep popping packs and you’ll have plenty.
>>56912610next drop event, like lapras in 2 weeks (29th)
>>56912606Elite 4 miniset inbetween bro
>>56912369I answered in old bread, butRalts xs xs gard gard draw sab sab dead
>beat a Mewtwo deck with a fucking Tentacruel
>>56912618thanks
>>56912600Honestly I was thinking about this too, I tried athe version with muk, but it's often too slow and the Weezing>Koga>Muk combo happen so rarely I was looking for a pokemon to replace Muk.
>>56912608Yeah I literally made this after I made the deck you’re talking about earlier. It’s decently good, like I said I barely couldn’t squeak by pikachus, I also misplay a lot. I’m thinking you could add a kangiskahn or just plan better for pika decks, I’ll run it a few more times and see.
>>56912606Red Gyarados? That would mean they'd introduce Shinies which is a whole extra can of worms for chasing and rarity. But eh, could just be Tyranitar instead in that slot, or Espeon/Umbreon.
>>56912617>So you pulled more pika pack than mewtwo?At this point, it's probably about even. I have been very lucky with wonder trade EXs. 1 of the Mewtwo EXs came from wonder, 1 Pikachu EX and 1 Zapdos EX came from wonder trade. >Are you hoarding your tickets or hourglasses or something?I am not hoarding hourglasses at all. I'm using everything I get as I get it. I am "hoarding" pack points, because I have a good deck and I don't need to use them. Also, I can buy multiple "fun" decks, or I can buy Weezings. If I buy Weezings, I can't buy Kogas, and instead I could buy Machop for a Machop EX deck or more "fun" things like that. I've also already spent points on the trainers I didn't get.
So do we think you'll still be able to crack packs of the current set for all of time and they'll keep adding more packs to choose from, or is this it?
Name 10 Pokemon you want to see in the next set>1 Crown Rare >5 EX >4 Abilitymons ranging from okay - good
>4 Lapras EXDo I keep going?
>>56912645why wouldn't you, especially if there's a chance it'll make for good trade fodder
How do you guys think they're going to restrict trading to avoid people selling cards for cash
>>56912645Yes. I'm at 5 and do them whenever they near stamina cap, but will probably grind them all out before the event ends. Like >>56912646 said there'd be people who'd want to trade for it later on.
>>56912519I've been saying Eggs Veno is good but everyone plays butterfree.
>>56912646The battles are tedious
I really like how greninja plays going first
>subscription ending >wait for the last pack>open it>An Error Has Occurred, kicks me back to the title screen and now I don't have a free pack anymore, sub is deadThat is hilariously jewish, the least they could do is give me that last pack.
>>56912659there are some stage 2s like him and victrebell that fuck if you hit them on curve going first, ive been rolling charizard to try to get them and brew something
>>56912650one trade a day and you pay special diamonds for a trade (how rare your card you have to pay more diamonds)
>>56912650Just make crown rares even rarer. Just bump it from down from 0.053% down to 0.033%.
>>56912662>Wow you wont give me something for FREE? how jewish of you
>>56912644I have a soft spot for Kingdra and Tyranitar, so make them ex if it's gen2 based set
>>56912662Sorry kid that 1 (one) pack containing the crown rare is for rewarding continuing customers only
>>56912645Might as well use the stamina as it regens. Saving the event hourglasses *might* be worth it, but no one will be able to say for sure. The value of those hourglasses will depend on things like the trading system, value / quality of future promos, and your own luck in getting drops from future events. Hell, we don’t even know for sure that this event will be gone for good after it ends, so everything you see people talking about is speculative.
How busted will Blaziken be?
Just played a level 50 dude who was playing articuno starmie and almost certainly wasn't botting (since he consneeded when the game was locked up but would take 2 turns
>>56912637You seriously think they wouldn't bloat some decks with rare shinies to whale for?
Best deck coming through.
>>56912681Very, I hope
>>56912672It's 1s and 0s, bro. The game isn't going to die by not taking my last countdown pack.
>>56912694It's the principle, you're calling someone jewish for not giving you something for free, which ironically is a far more jewish mindset
If trading is unlimited and without restrictions, what do you expect to venture-bust value USD card? What do you think that price will be?
>>56912672Does this game have shills already? It's existed for like a month so that'd be kind of shocking. At least game freak have close to 30 years of brainwashing on people so shills for mainline are to be expected.
FIVE EX MEWTWOS WHYI JUST WANTED GARDEVOIR OMG
>>5691269890% of cards will be a penny or less4% of cards will be 1-10 dollars1% of cards will be 50-100
>>56912687It's not that I think they wouldn't, it's just that I think it's pretty early to drop something that game-changing. Suddenly that fancy Charizard you hunted for isn't looking as hot as the Shiny Charizard. I feel like they'd drop Shinies around a Gen 5 focused batch in terms of lateness/pacing, if we're talking going in order.
>>56912644I just want my spooder Ariados to get a playable card
>>56912703Same, bro. Same. Or Weezing. Or Koga. Or anything else.
>>56912698gold crowns would be like 10 or 20 bux, even though they're the "rarest" with enough rerolling you can get em
>>56912650It will be a wonder trade where you are trading for something of the same rarity with no guarantees, you could receive a card you already have. Additionally there will be a stamina meter that can be cooled down with gold, restrictions to only being able to trade certain cards such as cards you have three or more copies of, cards you receive in a trade can never be retraded, and you will consume a currency on top of stamina every time you trade
>>56912699I just want you to take a step back for a moment and really think about how this seethe is because you weren't given something for free
>>56912644>Immersive Celebi>Fire Ho-Oh EX, Psychic Lugia EX, Fighting Tyranitar EX, Dark Ariados EX, and Steel Scizor EX>Xatu with Gardevoir's ability, Ampharos with once per battle redirect an attack to it on the bench ability, Dunsparce with flip a coin to double or nothing its damage ability, and Heracross with +20 damage to Grass types like another layer of weakness ability
>>56912721I could see this being the case but it would be really retarded
>>56912631Tentacruel is one of the most insane pokemon in the game and the only thing holding it back is it's typing. It easily has an 80-90 damage attack and fucking 110 HP.
>>56912703I'm you but with five Charizard EXs, 4 Machamp EXs, and 3 Moltres EXs. I finally got my first Blaine last night through a wonder pick
realistically, trading is probably going to be super gimped otherwise there'd be no reason to spend a lot if you could just trade everything
>>56912722I'm not seething, I'm just in amazement any consumer would have an emotional attachment to a corporate entity that barely exists
>>56912728I'm just trying to prepare for the worst case scenario, because I can't imagine it being much worse than that. The only other factor I could imagine is that cards are frozen in your collection for a period of time after being pulled before you are able to trade them
>>56912697>the principleAnon, never forget that this is a gacha above all else.
>>56912745Just make it so you can't trade the most recent expansion.
Are we expecting more Solo battle challenges with the new set?
>>56912751That isn't an out
i am ready for the trade function with my nine accounts
>>56912697That's a black mindset you fake poltard.
>>56912688Its shit
>>56912754yeah because the ones right now are labeled by the current boosters
>>56912748You don't even sound like you believe that cope, obviously has nothing to do with whatever company, it could be nintendo, it could be your grandma, it could be me, the principle remains the same, you're far more jewish for expecting free shit than not giving free shit. You're a child.
>>56912754if not then the game will be dead to me
>>56912699>Does this game have shills already?The much more likely alternative is that a thread on 4chan has shitposters.
>>56912754Yes but potentially not with the mini set but with the full sized expansion coming in January
>>56912770Yeah I'm really enjoying it, but the thought of paypigging hurts me.
I wonder how viable my soon-to-be archaic M2 deck will be once we start getting powercreptI'll probably manage 45 wins for the next pvp event but it'll def be harder
>>56912769>you're far more jewish for expecting free shit than not giving free shit.wait...he's right
>>56912519Metalchads, not like this.
>>56912769Whining at the wrong guy dude, but no normal person gives a shit about some guy asking for free shit from a game that preys on its players by default with microtransactions. Stepping inbetween that guy and his beef with tpci constitutes a literal slave mindset.
>>56912785I imagine Gardevoir will serve you well into the future if Mewtwo is usurped by another Psychic EX
>>56912637If they made a TTar card, I'd feel like they'd really have to make it worth the price of being a Stage 2.
>>56912790>well other people do bad things that means I can do bad things tooChild's mindset
>>56912662It's to make up for giving you 2 packs at the start of the subscription probably.
>>56912785once mons start getting more hp and the 150 (or 160) isn't enough to one shot is when you know you're getting powercrept
>>56912794Yeah, battery cards will definitely have more staying value than hard hitting exs
>>56912790>a game that preys on its players by default with microtransactionsOffering items or services to be bought is preying on people now? lol
>>56912802The bad things in question being...?
>>56912812getting mad you're not being given free shit
>enemy uses ex moltres during setup>turn 1 uses 2 pokeballs, fills bench>next turn hits 3 heads on infernogg>enemy misty uno's me first turnggi am physically at my limit playing against every fucking deck being absolute cheese. it is so fucking easy and quick to get online. i am used to getting fucked by initial draws in other TCGs but not playing a main meta deck (currently arbok/weezing) if i don't get a godly draw i'm fucked. like skating uphill when 90% of matches are just coinflipseven the dragonite matches are slightly fun to go against but eventually comes down to coinflips for the main attack whether i win or lose.
>>56912810>pretending to not understand why gacha games are successful just to defend your masterPathetic.
>>56912804>170 hp Groudon/Kyogre ex basic with a 3 energy 150 attack that discards energy FROM your opponentyou like?
>>56912794>Mewtwo gets pushed out>Comes in DEOXYSchad>Has a form mechanic tooKino...
>>56912821So can you actually give an argument or what
>>56912819No one's mad except you, and I'm here laughing at how deranged of a nutlicker you are for this company
I am once again requesting your wisdoms, where is the Venusaur?
>>56912828you're (likely) arguing with the same guy who regularly spergs out at people who reroll accounts for ~1-2 hours because they are wasting their time and life by playing a shitty gamejust ignore and move on friendo
this 11 hour wait time really fucking kills the urge to keep playingi feel like ill be uninstaling this thing if trading ends up being shit
>>56912831You're mad cause someone laughed at your childish entitlement issues
reminiscence about the days when mewtwo and pika ex were the most of your problems anons, you'll remember them fondly eventually>t. duel links player
>>56912836top middle is my goto
>>56912839I'll probably keep playing events but all I do for now is open it up periodically to check wonder picks and grab my daily packs
>>56912836>slowpoke's tail literally pointing to top leftit's never been more written in the stars then right now>>56912843i will never reminiscence about games being over in the first turn (sometimes second)it can only get better, games ending in 3 turns would be a god-send
I will never spend a dime on this game! If that makes shills mad, then so be it.
>>56912824form changing could be done well in a digital cardgame, if only they dont go too far with it
>>56912723oh, and though you didn't mention it>FalknerPidgey, Pidgeotto, Pidgeot, Spearow, Fearow, Hoothoot, and Noctowl have no retreat cost this turn.>BugsyIf your Active Pokémon is a Grass type, the Defending Pokémon is now poisoned.>WhitneyHeal 50 damage from your Active Colorless Pokémon.>MortyUntil your opponent plays a Supporter Card, they are unable to play any Item Cards.>ChuckDuring this turn, attacks used by your Active Pokémon do +20 damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon.>JasmineYour Steel type Pokémon take 30 less damage on your Opponent's next turn.>PryceAttach one Water type energy to Dewgong, Cloyster, Jynx, or Piloswine.>ClairChoose one of your Dragon Pokémon, and flip a coin until you get tails. For each Heads, attach a Water or Electric Energy from your Energy Zone to that Pokémon.
>>56912836If the game wants you to have it, it's wherever you pick. But for the sake of playing along, it's in the middle
>>56912839having the boosters timed for early morning and evening are nice, Im not gonna play the game the whole day so checking in early and late is nice
>>56912608>>56912600>>56912633Holy eff man, I’m literally shaking this battle was so intense and the timer was ticking down, got the win, couldn’t pull an arbok for my life, was fun af tho.I’m gonna tweak this deck and play around and see what I can find.
>>56912853You have my favour, anon. I've been hunting that thang down for quite some time, I'm running out of other cards to open in the m2 packs and this is my first Venusaur to open. One more before I can finally be free of this curse (I just really wanna join the venubros)
>>56912858All of these are Too Good, stop being so excited
I think this guy is really, really cool
>>56912869>almost all the mons are facing top leftkino
>>56912869Nice man, you really only need 1 Venusaur ex, if you have another ref Venusaur run it or just run a single bulbs line with 2 Caterpie to seek it out.
I keep getting these opponents who go on “waiting for your opponent to return” whenever it’s my turn. wtf are they doing? I assume these fags just have add and keep switch their apps when it’s not their turn?
>>56912867it's a fun deck when things go your way, but given how aggro every other deck is, if your draws aren't great (read: not just good) then you will simply get out sped.>>56912869hell yeah dude, told you you'd never go wrong with top left. i feel like you've used my luck for the day but you can have it, enjoy the card and beat some whalers for me.
>already done with the event>way past the shop ticket limit>still queue because I want to try out my new Blaine deck>keep winning>no thanksI'm starting to feel bad.
7 mankeys and no fucking promo pikachuim gonna strangle these japs and their shit RNG coding
>>56912875going first on curve id imagine hes pretty decentthink he needs really good partners to make up for all the other times tho, not sure what they are
I did the thing
>>56912950You gooned?
difference between going first and second is just simply too much for me right now, i shant be enjoying matches!
>>56912950need more art of this specific misty
>>56912867Man, I really wish I had more pack points or that I had Weezings. I can buy Weezings, and 1 Koga, but that's it. I'm seriously boutta use a wonder trade on the next Weezing I see.
>another venusaur exGive me fucking mewtwo bitch
>>56912600it can beat Pikachu as long as they don't start off with full bench. Basically you sacrifice one full Evo to wittle Pikachu down and kill it. the. have arbok trap someone with no energy and kill
Having a great time with wigglytuff ex/egge exForces 4 prize cards nearly every time and both have great bulk
>>56912997Sort of unrelated but nothing pisses me off more than having 3 versions of a mon, but not actually 3 versions of the specific cardI have 2 immersive Mewtwo ex and 1 normal Mewtwo ex, it pisses me off
>>56912907I've been running Beedrill as a replacement for EXegg on Venusaur because I just started yesterday. I definitely think Exeggutor could probably do it better even if the damage is lower but it's alright.
>>56912427Wigglytuff is too expensive to set up alongside a Dragonite.
How different is this game from the actual tcg? I never played real pokemon yugioh wannabe.
Are account levels capped/time gated with diminishing returns? It feels like leveling up for a pack takes forever
>>56912699why are you in this thread if you don't like playing this game
i'm starting to become a red card believer. i've been getting fucked by people just randomly having it in their deck
>>56913029I believe it takes more xp to level up, yes
>>56912688replace Dragonite with hypnos
>>56912313I have never seen this Pokemon before.
Blue Card when?
>>56912751>why can't I be held accountable for what I'm saying
>>56913038In my opinion, it’s not that valuable simply due to the deck size being so small. The threat of red card already conditions players to play cards instead of holding. I have won games with it before, but red card seems more likely to do nothing or assist the opponent than it is to hurt them.
>>56913053It makes your opponent draw 5 cards
There should be a red card but for the player
>>56913053Run Articuno. He's blue and a card!
>>56912997Give me your friend code so I can try to WP it
>>56912688I was going to comment how did deck does nothing the first 3 turns but then I remembered Dragonite only needs 1 turn to win after it becomes active.
>>569122811. How long have you been playing pokemon? 2. How often do you exercise? 3. Are you fat or skinny?
>>56913073He looks like he's Girugameshing me
>>569130867 days4-5 times a weekFat, but not obese.
>>56913025>I never played real pokemon yugioh wannabe.It's dumbed down but I actually think it's more fun.
So does wonder pick ever hit immersives and crowns or does it cap out at the full art trainers
>>56913091>4-5 times a weekpost your arms
>>56913053

This deck is kinda skill intensive and I feel like scum
If I don't open a pack, does the timer for the next pack keep going? My packs open at times where I'd like to be sleeping. Trying to fix my sleep schedule
>>56912828Gacha rely on less than 5% of mentally ill whales to make millions. It's predatory.
god damn I love making pikachuds concede with NidoKING
>>56913119>Mental illness is when you buy things I dont
>>56912839>this 11 hour wait time really fucking kills the urge to keep playingIt would be cool if I could get all of my packs at once daily.
>>56913116yes, you can have 2 packs stacked I think
>>56913116The timer keep going until you have two packs.
>>56913127It's a mobile game so yes
>>56912735>easily has an 80-90 damage attackNope
>>56912369Last 2 cards being Ralts
>>56912966Wheezing isn’t necessary, fill the spots with snorlax, kengaskan, or farfetch’d for a similar experience
>>56913116You can manipulate the packs to open when you would like them to by simply opening a pack with hourglasses at the desired time, knowing that the next pack will be available 12 hours later
>>56913086>Was 4 during peak pokemonia, brother indoctrinated me>Used to be 7 days a week in gym, now a few evenings of calisthenics at home if I'm lucky (I am a dad now)>Was "ripped" (17%bf, 205 lbs, 6'2 - 1.5/2.5/3/4 were my stats), now I'm just skinny (managed to keep off dad weight so far)

>>56912790>No that wasn't me. I swear!Can you fuck off?
>>56913141Only non-white Digimon can evolve? Sounds pretty racist.
>>56913000Yep, this deck also plays on a razors edge where Giovanni and potions come in huge
>>56913130>>56913132>>56913150Thanks bros
>>56912281The Misty trainer card just feels so game breaking. Been grinding the expert event mission.Sure, it's a potential minus. But the game ends right there if it works out.
>>56913183Sabrina was my first Pokefu.
How are our collections coming along bros?
>>56912839please quit now
Hi TOKIO. My Primeape just swept your entire deck. You spent the entire match setting up Dragonite and masterfully played your Red Card to fuck over my hand. You played Giovanni to do as much damage as possible… and then your Dragonite hit everything BUT Primeape, throwing the game.I am so fucking sorry bro.
>>56913195I was a weakling with merely 165 the last I revealed my power, and now I have grown greatly! My power level is a BIG, FAT, 177!!
>>56913184My friend describes it as feast or famine. I feel like coin flips should be capped. At a certain point they’re redundant anyway.
>>56912966I wonder traded for my 2nd weezing.
I've completed all battle tasks and still no Lapras ex with less than a week left on the event. What am I doing wrong?
>>56913221you didn't level your luck

when is sinnoh
>>56913240wow 400 dollars a month, send them to therapy
Is Dragonite worth making? I finished all my other deck goals so now I'm just doing whatever seems interesting. The attack uniqueness seems cool.
>>56913195I'm just missing Charizard, Arcanine, Flareon, Moltres and Hypno for the original 151
>>56913221>What am I doing wrong?Are you opening each one as soon as you get it or opening a bunch at once?
>>56913255>Arcanine, Flareon, Moltres and Hypno I'd give you mine in a heartbeat
>>56913252No, it’s not fun to play, maybe the first few times, but after I made it I dismantled the deck to make room and haven’t looked back. Don’t waste your points. Plus do you have 2 of dragonair and dratini? If not they’re hard to pull.
Do the battle stances make a difference for online play? Do you guys test your fun decks in the beginner category or does it even matter
>>56913290Ironically enough the fun decks are in TCGBeginner is filled with people looking for ez exp with their meta decks
>>56913252its purely a for fun card, but a pretty good one with good hpgameplay is the exact same every time, jerkoff till you hit drag and the right energy, but big dumb dragon is cool
>>56913086Data mining post
Are the immersives and full art trainers and crowns available in all packs, or just for their particular pack. For example, can I open a crown mewtwo in a pika pack?
>>56913336crowns are in all packs, otherwise everything is is pack exclusive
>>56913336You can check pack rates
>>56913200In a game like this, how strong would a card that can guarentee at least 1 Heads when you flip a coin be?
>>56913341Ty
>>56913290i test mine in the event, but i only consider my offmeta decks fun if they can potentially win games against decent decks
>>56913284I do have 2 of each of the prevos, just not any copies of Dragonite itself, but I guess I won't bother, maybe if they make a Dragonite EX later I'd just make that instead>>56913315I guess I could see how it'd get boring, maybe if they make a Lance Supporter card that speeds the deck up I'll revisit it
Competitive Pika players, what build is your favorite right now and why?Inb4 that copypasta from yesterday
>>56913296>"Akakazam, obliterate!"
>>56913358the one that wins tournaments
>>56913358>competitivelollmao, perchance.
>>56913252Currently it's a worse Charizard that doesn't have Moltres. I beat it 90%+ of the time with m2 and I imagine pika would rip it to shreds
>>56913362>Akakazam*AlakazamMy joke is now ruined.
>>56913365>>56913366>Seething already
>>56913296Well, there's probably your "highest damage dealt" stat for life lmao
>>56912519>mewtwo sitting on 50/50I could have told you that. It’s my least favorite deck to go up against because that initial coin flip seems to almost always dictate the outcome of the game. Mewtwo going second with another mewtwo on the bench is a win against pika just about every time. I imagine the mirror is similar
What sort of trainers need to be printed to make going first less bad?
>>56913296There's a damage cap? Interesting.
>>56913376why would i be seething at you unable to build an ex pika deck?
>>56913399Misty
>>56913399Ones that give energy
>>56913399poke ball that searches stage 1
>>56913399the one that make TPCI change the rules so first turn can place energy
>>56913264nta anon but I was opening a bunch at once, I was at 0 lapras and decided to just start opening them one by one and got 2 back to back when my stamina regenerated today
Is there any way to get these to sync up without losing some hours?
>>56912281When do the pack points expire? I've been working on Charizard packs for a second Sabrina, two Charmanders and a Charmeleon along with maybe Starmie EX if I can get it. The only thing from the Pikachu packs I can think of wanting is the Misty card, but I don't know if I should get two Misty cards now or the Charizard ones. I think someone said the new mini packs happen tomorrow so I don't want to lose out on my choices. If it helps I have two Articuno EXs and Moltres EXs along with a Charizard EX.
>>56913482use hourglasses as soon as deliberd finishes
>>56913487They'll expire if/when the pack leaves, and they'll surely tell us in advance.
Very nice. Now i need a staryu
wait are the leaks right and the next promo packs will have greninja in it?
Pikafags KNEEL to the KING
>>56913482Not really, even using hourglasses won't make them sync as you will get the leftover time applied to your new time
>>56913531you don't need leaks to see there's a greninja promo, and since it's one of the few unreleased ones, yeah it's easy to say it's coming next event
>>56913482You can try wait out 2 days for the delibird to cap out to sync with the daily but it's not worth it if you're going with the free premium
>>56913482Don't think so. I have mine off by 22 minutes myself.
>>56912645I'm playing for trans rights cardst.5 lapras ex haver
>>56913358I posted mine, raichu and zadpos are just really strong. My wife likes the zebstrika, but that's also the only other electrics she has
Does Misty ever fucking work?? I've had more consistent Kangaskhans and Pincers than this bitch.
>>56913456Maybe make it an energy that's falls off after one attack used
>>56913358This is what I’ve been testing today. Raichu doesn’t always feel good, but I think it might be the best option we have.
>>56913610Skill issue in flipping the first coin
>>56913610pick the coin up before flipping it
Have been having fun with this deck in the PvP event. Fire will blow it apart no doubt, but outside of that it's pretty resilient once you get a Butterfree going
its real funny how people forget ex cards give 2 points when they die
>>56913541>1 energy on each pokemonyoure just fighting a retardand im not even a pikachu user
>>56913687he kept retreated all his pikachus so that's why they have 1 energy
>>56913616You really find pincurchin that good? I've had wild success with basically the same list minus that pokemon, I would just hate to brick on him
Mewtwo FEARS this
>>56913726not really
>>56913482You can open packs as soon as your premium timer is up. Opening 2 packs will guarantee they're synced. Too bad there's no way to get all 3 packs at once.
>started playing tcg livenot bad, so many options from the getgo and they give you free waifus. i just wish the presentation was nicer.
>>56913744forgot pic
>>56913748>Lisia's appealWhat's her appeal?
>>56913503>Very nice. Now i need a staryuWhat's your FC? I really need a 2nd starmie ex.
>>56913735he fled
>>56913726Rodent fears it, you mean
>>56913699Pincurchin is alright. I never really want to gamble on it, but I occasionally keep it on the bench with one energy just in case. The retreat cost is nice, and I’m not sure what I’d replace it with that would be worthwhile. Sometimes I wish it was easier to get surge, but that card seems like it would be awful at 2. Potion is just something I’ve been messing around with over red card.If nothing else, pincurchin is another basic to count towards pika’s damage output.
>>56913770You could try regular Zapdos. I think the Mewtwo list that runs a 3rd regular Mewtwo is better than any of the other lists I've played against. The Jynx one can be alright as well
>>56912346Can't do enough damage to take out Charizard or Mewtwo before your mon get rinsed.
>>56912355counter counterpoint: the TCG re-releases 151 slop every time they want to push a new stupid mechanic, your immersive mew will get rolled over by Mew DX Z Move Ultra SHKSGDHJSD
>>56913778NTA, but regular Zapdos feels slow. Regular Mewtwo works by having 120HP while also energy from Gardevoir
>>56913778Maybe. The reason I don’t like the regular zapdos is that it’s simply too expensive to ever attack with. Pincurchin is almost too much, but the stun is occasionally my only out to a bad game. I’m open to any suggestions with deck building. Feels like we’re sorting through a lot of mediocre options while we wait for the next set to provide better ones.
>>56912346>draw the deckAt least put in an Aerodatcyl or two for the meme
DATAMINED LAPRAS PACK ODDSDamn..The game truly was rigged...
>>56912397For casuals? Yes.For anyone with a brain? No, dead on arrival.
>>56913813Makes sense. The foils generally indicate rares.
>>56913813kekknew it
>>56913813Meanwhile, in Meland
>>56913813Oof, feels bad for those who lose that 13%.
God Danmit I love playing Team RocketShould I put on the Mewtwo skins to fuck with the Mewtwo players?
>>56913843Why are you holding those event hourglasses hostages?
>>56912397It's going to last 7 years at least
>>56913856He probably thinks they'll carry over to the next event
>>56913856Bit too lazy to fight Lap over and over again.
>>56912397It absolutely has a future. It snatched up the massive casual/normie audience that Master Duel kicked out day 1. People have wanted a babymode card game for a long time.
>>56913813Bullshit, 13 Mankey, 6 Pikachu and 4 Clefairy.

>>56913813Not show datamine pack odds.
>>56913874Use auto duel. You don't lose the hourglasses even if your retarded ai loses.

>>56913874>too lazyThen you don't get to whine about it
>>56913890Literally listed ingame already
how different is tcg pocket from the actual card game?
it's funyou should play it
>>56913900I don't think Hurtstone gives you 2 packs per day. Not to mention games versus Warrior get sweaty fast
>>56913906I'd consider this if there was a Non-EX format.
>>56913900Hearthstone didn't even die off because it became too complicated. It died because the devs kept getting progressively more retarded with each set release.
>>56913906There are a million fun decks I would play if I fucking had the cards, but I don't. I can't destroy my excess full art Mewtwos and Charizards, I can't turn them into pack points, I can't trade them for commons/uncommons/rares, so I just have to wait until the game lets me play the decks.
>>56913903I meant the real datamined rates.
>>56913916poison is enough to make even ex fags panic switch
>>56913926Literally listed ingame already
>>56913916Ironically it performs very well into Pikachu and Mewtwo. It's the non-meta ex decks that dumpster it (and charizard, hence the aerodactyl).
>>56913929Those aren't real rates.
>>56913813They MUST have stealth buffed the Lapras droprate in the last few days. I had 0 up until the other day where they started dropping like crazy.
>>56913926they literally cannot lie about rates, that could land them in huge legal trouble
>>56913934The listed rates are fucking terrible already. Do you really believe they are secretly making them worse?
>>56913813Source on this? Definitely would be interested to check it out for other possible events
>>56913934They are, because they really don't want to get completely obliterated for having fake rates.
>>56913945>3 1-Diamonds guaranteed for non-God packsReading it definitely makes me annoyed me more than not knowing about it
My mankey deck just lost turn 1 to a farfetch. -10 self dmg and then he plays GioCan somebody explain why this bird does 40 damage? seems a little overtuned compared to other turn 1s that isn’t a coinflip
>>56913959it's got a stick
>>56913959I guess you could say his damaged output seems a little... farfetched
>>56913856NTA but they'll carry over
Why are you retards talking about using event Hourglasses? A new promo pack will be out in a few days.
>>56913927>poison the Pikachu>switches out into zapdos>poison the Zapdos>switches out into the Pikachu

>>56914004no. you tell me
>>56913945For certain cards, yes.
>>56913264The former
>>56913971You retard. it won't be out for over a week

>>56914022Considering only 2 out of 5 cards can pull higher rarity cards, it's no surprise that most packs look like crap
>>56913977they're called "event hourglasses" instead of "event hourglass(Lapras)" and the description says "used to attempt select solo battles or events"meanwhile the tickets are called "Event Tickets(Meowth)" and their description says that they're deleted at the end of the period
The Event Hourglasses are blue, and Lapras is blue, proving that they are exclusively for Lapras.
>>56913878how many of us are duel links players? i know there's a bunch of yugioh bros here already
>>56914074Im a refugee marvelsnap player... fuck brode... FUCK BEN BRODE!!!!!!!
>>56914062There's no issue with this if there's no overlap
>only 25 winsthis is going to take a while
>>56914074I used to play Hurtstone and Shadowverse. Got bored of both and currently playing Teppen. I thought I am done with turn-based card games but Pocket proved me wrong
>>56913813>I have 7 butterfrees and 1 Lapras EXSomehow I really thought Butterfree was higher than his.
>>56914074Like Rush Duels. Don't really care for duelist abilities. Also that game is surprisingly expensive to get 3 copies of some cards. I am not sure if I like pack points from here or set number off cards/box from DL more. Wish you could have both.
Is Weezing the best 2nd mon for Alakazam too? Is Weezing just the best 2nd mon period?
>>56914028You see goy, you can use your pack shekels to either get yourself a goldeen, or buy more packs and save up your pack shekels for kabutops, with those pulls you should have only>flips abacus21 packs plus tip to go!
>>56912281Anyone want to do some battles
misty flippers don't get thanked, simple as
>>56914125I hope that "trading" ends up being that you can earn pack points by "selling" your cards or some shit like that. I fucking hate that I just have to hold my endless duplicate giga rare cards that I don't even want in the first place.
>>56914132vpnx or meta?
>>56914134this but for pika tards
>>56914137Considering that trading is located in the community tab, it would never be that
>>56914138vpnx
>>56914147sure
>>56914137I'd be alright with trading in your bulk rares or doubles for pack points. The flair mechanic shouldn't eat cards and they could inflate the dust points to match.
>>56914145It's next to the "showcases" tab. You could buy people's showcases
>>56913977There’s nothing definitive but imo it’s worth keeping a couple just in case. I have 9 left and I’m more or less done, I have my playsets and I don’t think it’s worth burning the hourglasses for promo lapras I probably won’t even be able to trade.
>>56914193Your tranny tickets though.
Is the wheezing arbok deck the Koga themed deck?
>>56914125Every single fun deck I have ever built I have had to buy cards for it. This game is meticulously crafted to anally rape you.
>get Gardevoir on curve or loseNice
For me it's Blaziken
>>56912397I feel they didn't have to dumb down the TCG this much. I get they're trying to emulate duel links but I feel that I often lack control on a lot of aspects of my gameplay. Even something like Hearthstone feels much more reactive than this game.
>>56914220NTA, but it's only 55% to get a shop tix per attempt at Expert. Pretty annoying
Next OP image, please
>>56913813>3 lapras>only 1 pikachu
>>56913296
>>56914260It's that a rip? Where can I find the rest?
>>56912644>Immersive Ho-oh with art showing it resurrecting the legendary beasts>Scizor EX (Steel), Crobat EX (Dark), Lanturn EX (Electric), Slowking EX (Psychic), Porygon2 EX (Normal)>Noctowl that lets you see the opponent's hand, Ariados to make poisoned pokemon flip a coin to retreat (tails = fail but no energy loss), Jumpluff with low HP but the ability to retreat itself back to hand, and Delibird that selects a mon at random (either yours or the opponent's) to either take 30 damage or heal 30
Can someone please explain what the point in using fossils is? I thought someone implied they're good because Sabrina can't force them in, yet it they still can be selected and they still give the opponent a prize while having 40ho, like seriously WTF?
>no achievement or rewards whatsoever for completing all solo battle missionst-thanks
>>56914297You can discard them without giving your opponent a prize, anon. They make for a solid pivot if you have to, and can stall for one turn if you need to get an ex out a turn later.
>>56914094Don’t sweat it. I just finished my 50 wins today after casually grinding the event. Every deck is likely to be mewtwo, pika, or articuno/starmie, so it’s a little taxing. After the 25 win mark, the only oddball deck I encountered was a blaine deck, and that’s not exactly a meme.
>>56914149Ggs. Too bad you couldn't have gone first.:*[
>>56914284There wasn't a source, sorryhttps://x.com/pokemon_twts/status/1857136334043025902
>>56914315Is it "skill based match making" that way?
>>56914318Oh well, I don't have really good stuff for this meta either ha.The only fun/usable non-meta non-dragonite decks I have rn besides koga/dark stuff all involve coin-flipping in some form.Whether its Aero or Heliop or Kingler or Persian or whatever.I don't know where to potentially slot ditto in for fun either with a colorless deck when you need a hard colorless hitter which doesn't exist besides maybe a Cinccino deck but with Blaine and Golduck running around I feel that would still be too slow.I'm down to experiment more with this meta but I really don't have too many cards for it.
>>56914337Do you want to do a meta battle
Just had a kino Gengar vs Dragonite match
>>56914297You can discard them in the event of a defensive Sabrina (opp can’t attack but wants to save a turn or two) without losing a prize and they’re fodder that doesn’t mess up Poke Ball searches. I prefer 1 Amber/1Aero though because you get all the benefits of a fossil in addition to gaining a decent meatshield that can bail you out of hopeless games
>>56914344If you want to sure, just vp then?Been trying to test out Mewtwo recently but not always running into the best decks or it's just Articuno Misty constantly, but if meta just means "ex allowed" I could do other shit.
For any paypigs that bought packs, do you regret it?
>dailies gave me 2x full art rapidash in the same dayNot complaining, but I still need a lot of basic shit from the zard packs.>>56914336I’ve heard that it is, but I haven’t read that from any official source. In my experience, it seemed to be true.
>>56914304half assed game, please understand
>>56914355I didn't really paypig but I did the premium pass (non-paid) and all my packs were trash, so I'm imagining if I did pay for it the regular way I'd have felt so frustrated
>>56914354nta I'll battle you
>>56914355I only spent $30~ and the pass but I have a very solid collection and I’ve seen people who spent big day 1 say they regretted it. This game is very generous compared to other gacha and it’s pretty doable to collect most cards in a set’s 2 month lifespan with just the pass and good wonder picking
WHO ARE THESE LUCKER DOGS FUCK YOU
Can you only get a small free gibs hand out of tranny points per day? I just claimed a bunch and it said I couldn't claim them.
hewwo?
>>56914448max 5 a day unfortunately
>>56914383Wow I was mashing through and didn't thank you twice.I'm a bad sport oh no oh no
Im baking next one.Do not bake.
I just played a game with my Charizard deck, and I had to stall for NINETEEN (19) TURNS in order to get Charizard on the field. How is this okay?I won, but only because the other guy was playing some shitty Machamp deck. If it was any other deck at all, like a Pikachu deck, I would have lost long ago.
>>56914449:3c
>>56914336yes sort of, i noticed a difference in the decks/matchmaking when i was spamming koga, i was running into every meta deck and blinged out whale deck possible, but after a couple loss streaks on meme decks I noticed I was fighting more shitter and f2p decks
>>56913296How?
>koga can retreat pokemon even though arbok attacked itthis shit is so fucking stupidwhy are all these whaler japs and koreans running weezing/dragonite decks, fucking aids
Wait I'm forced to use Hourglasses before Pokegold? Fuck you Nintendo.
>FIRST TURN MOLTRES DOUBLE HEADS FOR THE 10000000TH TIME TODAYI AM HAVING SO MUCH FUNI LOVE HAVING EVERY SINGLE GAME RELY ON COIN FLIPS WITH QUITE LITERALLY 0 SKILL
>>56914500The game is usually decided by whether you go first or not anyway.
>>56914500Did you consider joining us
>>56914465No you can’t get Charmeleon from a pack, even though he’s only uncommon and you have multiple copies of every other uncommon.Okay you bought him.But no, you can draw him from your deck, he’s the bottom 2 cards.>pic relThe game before this he was the bottom 3 cards and before that it was just the same.
>red card gets rid of all my evos in turn 2>about to lose the game>second red card brings them back in turn 8>win gameThere will never be a better real world example of how to play it. If that doesn't convince people nothing will.
>>56914506>misty coinflips me turn 1>if heads he wins if tails he concedesreally riveting gameplay we've got here>moltres coinflips me their first turn>3 fucking chances to get a free energy on a mon with 1 retreatriveting as wellwill just get to 50 wins (8 away) and quit pvp until next event, i'm just not having fun anymore. i get maybe a slightly enjoyable match every ~10 games but it's all the same shit.>>56914508will be interesting to see tourney results about which fire deck reigns supreme. ninetails/rapidash blaine tomfoolery vs charizard/moltres coinflip hell.exciting times await
>>56914517>sure the game will shower you with rares>but vulpix/ninetales?>a common and uncommon?>nopeI’d love to run this deck, but I’m not spending pack points for commons while I’m still pulling zard packs.
NEW THREAD>>56914505
Charizard, use Crimson Storm on the next thread!
>>56914549Uhh no, I said I’m baking. You didn’t put the /vp/ battle passwords in, once again, delete that shit please.Real new thread>>56914553>>56914553>>56914553
>>56914549Thank you.
>>56914491nah you can do customize
>>56914465I'd say this was me you faced, but I conceded like turn 4 or something after I matched out that his charizard would get my machamp after I took out half it's health
>>56914772How stronge would this Seviper be?Team Plasma has shifted regions to expand their territory. A lone grunt targets the champion of the region to make a statement as they enter this unfamiliar region! Cynthia is caught by surprise and tightly constricted by the grunt's Seviper! All the struggling in the world won't help her if she is unable to reach her Pokeballs and call an ally to assist her! Tightly secured, and confident she will be unable to call out a Pokemon of her own, a humiliating fate awaits the champion... The Team Plasma grunt removes the champion's shoes and begins worshiping her now-bare, exposed feet. Seviper is commanded to swallow her alive head-first, but not before using it's blade-like tail to cut the champion's bra clean off of her! Breasts exposed, and bare feet kicking, Champion Cynthia can only helplessly cry out as she is slowly taken into the form of the villainous grunt's ally serpent! A champion is only as powerful as the Pokemon they use, and with this definitive victory, Team Plasma shows that having no Pokemon is equivalent to having no power... Champion Cynthia, once the most respected trainer throughout the region, will be digested alive, eventually becoming mere nutrients for a lone grunt's Seviper
