>>56982262How's your collection coming along?
>>56982262How much pack points do you have saved and what are you going to spend it on?
(S)EX ACQUIRED(S)EX!!
>>56981961Weezing is definitely overstatted but it's fine because there's nothing good to pair him with. Arbok can be very good and put the opponent in checkmated positions, but also only 60 damage per turn is not nearly enough to relliably burst down decks like Charizard or Grass decks before they can set up. Ninetails+Blaine will one shot both of them, and even Pikachu EX will one shot Arbok with a Giovanni. Muk is just kinda bad because his gimmick will rarely work when you need it. And Nidoking/queen are just plain bad.And using Weezing in dual energy decks is a big gamble. Weezing's whole strength is that he's really strong for how early you can get him online, but it's a 50% chance that you even get to use his attack at the start of the game when his strengths really matter.He's really only that good vs exactly Mewtwo decks.
>>56982364gonna keep rolling Charizard packs twice a day until I get a Moltres EX, until I get 500 points to just buy Moltres EX or until the next set comes out
>>56982423>And Nidoking/queen are just plain bad.words hurt you know
>>56982466Nidoking/Queen EX will fix everything wrong with this game. Trust the plan.
>>56982466You're good for winning with a bad deck. Keep fighting the good fight so I can get my 5 winstreak emblem.
>>56982341I won't bother completing the 2* cards and above as a f2p, but apart from that I'm almost done with Mewtwo. Only missing one or two 3dia. Same with Charizard, although here also some 1* fullarts. When I get a second Charizard EX I'll proceed to Pika, of which I haven't opened any packs
>>56982466Queen is bad, but King is my most consistent deck with the highest win percentage. It's probably different from the meta, since I just used autobuild and then swapped some cards out.It's been much better for me than egg, crab or anything involving Misty. I roll tails 80% of the time and my deck has 0 coinflips so that's probably why.
>>56982423His stats are fine, his ability to poison for free without attacking is what makes him good, and what makes him do more than the other stage 1s that can do more upfront damage, dual color decks want him because he can still poison tick even if he misses a turn attacking for 30
>>56982533Only doing 10 damage upfront because you lost the coin flip on getting the right energy is a huge deal when his whole point is to be strong in the early game.
>>56982481Neither of them have ever had an Ex before, have they? I doubt they'd start now
>>56982545There is a Nidloking Break however.
the chinese already got draw hacks i cant believe it
I am officially convinced that KangaJynx is the best way to play M2
What an absolute chad kino matchI did a double take when the match started and saw him have fire energy ready for his bulba leadThen he put down the squirtleEnded with me Dittoing his Hydro Bazooka for game after both decking out.
>>56982423Weezing + Alakazam is pretty good
what excel sheet to track card library do you guys use?
>>56982574I think a lot of people are underestimating the strength of being able to throw out a second non-EX to deal some chip damage before dying to make your opponent work for 4 points instead of 3.
>>56982542If you can get the opp to burn an energy or x speed because they only want to take 10 hp that's a plus, so likely one poison cycle deals 30 which isn't bad for not having the right energyHim coming in later to poison their sweeper and chip in a little is just good too
>>56982508>>56982466I used weezing nidoking which seems ok.
>>56982585That and the energy cost for Kanga is basically non-existent if you go first since your energy curve is already screwed up and a Gardevoir can fully power up a Jynx the turn she comes out so you don't even need to invest energy into her.
Are there any pokemon with really funny names in other languages that I should be looking out for? Right now I've just been collecting English+Japanese cards.
>>56982619weezing is smogmog in German
>>56982579Looks like a cool fight. Was Ency running water energy or was Blastoise banking on Misty?
>>56982619Dogars
>>56982579Your opponent making fun. Nice.>>56982341Trying to get Venusaur out of packs and Flareon out of Wonder Pick.>>56982364495. Wondering if I should just blow it all on Venusaur EX and then switch to Charizard packs to go Flareon hunting.
>>56982627I think banking on misty, it was a long fight and I don't think I ever saw him place a water.But you never know with how the energy system is.Felt bad since my own mistys popped off when his didn't.It made me realize though that all the starters save for blastoise actually allow for mixing colors with relative ease.
today's outfit!
>>56982579I once played against a guy running fire/water/electric/psychic/grass energy and mons in his deck. I won, of course.I also once played an eeveelution dude with fire/water/electric and lost.
Soon....
is there some trick i can do with the subscription where i dont have to pay if i cancel it at ther right time?
More cards need more than 1 attack on them. I remember a shitload of the original set either had 2 attacks, or an attack with an effect even on the shitty ones
>>56982632nice>>56982619in german schiggy is squirtle
>>56982651That would be a little kid or something.Nearly every dual type I faced that wasn’t dragon was just some newbie that didn’t know what they were doing.
>>56982632god i wish i could lick that>>56982619>schiggy>digda>smogmog>relaxo
>>56982662There's no trick outside of starting it at the end of the month when all missions are likely already cleared
>>56982704>schiggy digda
>>56982423I have a lot of fun with Weezing + Wigglytuff EX, and will have even more fun when we get the new Promo Jigglypuff."Fwahahaha! A mere child like you dares to challenge me? Very well, I shall show you true terror as a ninja master! You shall feel the despair of poison and sleep techniques!"Unrelated, I hope we get more ground type love soon.
>>56982667I'm holding out hope for something like this from this miniset. It wouldn't be a perfect fix but it'd give sime mons more options. Like Muk, for example. Being able to poison with Grimers attack would be a huge boon for Muk.
>>56982744Burn when so i can triple status effect someone
>>56982764Melmetal would probably love this.
>Lose to a Marowak deckMan fuck rocks I'm going to go play with grass>Immediately match up against another Marowak deck and win
WHY THAT FUCKING WHORE MISTY REFUSES TO FUCKING WORK, FUCKING SLUT

>beat marowak EX deck with lightning onlyHow the fuck is this even possible
>>56982640wonder pick
The only Johto representation currently in the game is the Delibird icon used for the premium pack timer
>double resists fighting types>jk weak to fighting>immune to ground types>jk weak to groundRock types deserve to burn for this travesty.
>>56982829He should be weak to Lightning like all the other fliers
>>56982676>Supporter>Search your deck for an evolution card that mat matches a type of energy attached to your Eevee
Only a few days left of the PvP event and I'm only at 25 wins.
>>56982811>>56968840
>>56982847I had this shit done two weeks ago, how are people still on this
>>56982847You could clear the rest in a day, post deck
>>56982829zapdos being weak to its own energy type is the worst offender
>>56982855That is some insane levels of RNG needed to win that. Just the fact that you walled the Hitmonchan alone is RNG in itself.
>>56982856I have a 10% win rate.
>>56982856>>56982867I'm just more into the collecting side and haven't had time to do them. I got the complete Pika deck though so I'm doing that now.
>>56982871It wasn't even that bad. Beating fire with Pinsir took most of a day and beating grass with Dugtrio took several days.
>the small tribal fishing village of Dragonite Players
>>56982811pika
>>56982881Yeah so you can still do it in a day.
>>56982906Pikachu EX gets buttfucked by that deck. Maybe if you constantly get a Marowak that flips zero (you won't).
>>56982651I played against a madman running eveelutions and dragonite. Only narrowly won because I was playing a slow as shit nidofamily deck
>>56982905His deck would instantly improved if he swapped Dragonite for Kingler.
>>56982937Incredibly based.
>>56982619German has a lot of funny names
>>56982899>beating grass with DugtrioJust flip heads with Marowak
>>56982856It's not a game that compels me to grind. I've got like a 75% winrate with my Koga and Blaine decks but I don't want to do more than 1-2 battles here and there.
just reset until the AI opponent has only a single mon and then hit it with your third turn evolved attacker, duh
>>56982364480. I'm either going for Exeggcutor or 1 Weezing and 2 Misties depending on whether or not I pull a copy of Exeggutor by the time pack 2 comes around
Does the exp required to level up increase as your level increases, do the rewards for leveling up every decrease, and is there a level cap?
>>56982966>Does the exp required to level up increase as your level increasesYes.
>>56982619Major Bob
>>56982966Rewards are always the same as far as I can tell.Yes, you need more and more exp to level up.Level cap is 50 apparently.
>>56982966level cap is supposedly 50 and yeah exp required by level keeps increasing
>>56982945>Aasfresserkek although fitting considering the effect
>>56982619
>back to front pack>back to front bent corner pack >Mewtwo EX insidethe science doesn't lie
>>56982847Im at 30 right now. I could grind out the last 15 but I don't like the game enough to do that
>7 cards until I get Mew>all but 2 cost 150 points>I've got 145Suffering.
I'm concerned that the game just came out and there are already so many busted decks dealing 90 damage on turn 2, granting multiple energies per turn...What is it going to look like 2 years from now?
>>56982262>lmao just wait 36hs to try a 1/5 to get that card you needShit game
>>56983009decks of nothing but EXes
>>56983009Relatively the same, but your old cards are worthless.
>>56982949Didn't have Marowak by I feel like venting so I'll tell you the whole story.I only had one copy of Dugtrio so if I didn't find it I lost.Because I only had one copy, flipping tails and losing it was not an option.Dugtrio only does 40 damage so between Erika and Giant Bloom killing Venusaur EX before the turn limit is impossible.If a Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, or Venusaur EX ever became active I had to scoop.My only reasonable line to victory was kill a Kangaskhan and Exeggutor EX. This was slow enough that the bot would draw at least one Erika.If the stars aligned and I wasn't forced to scoop, at least 8 coins needed to flip and I needed to win at least 7 of them.God that took forever.
>>56983009This game won't be alive in 2 years.
beat the fire type deck using grass by resetting until the coinflips lined up well enough that EXeggutor could beat down a Charmander and then 2HKO Moltres EX
>>56982936I have no idea what I'm doing but I do that and it's fun, it's like two decks in one
To whoever told me to run fossil+sabrina bless your soul. I am now winning alot with venu, im not even putting energy on the tree sometimes anymore. I just bench a bulba and slap energy on it so its ready to drain hp as early as possible
>>56982868zapdos should be weak to articuno, which should be weak to moltres, which should be weak to zapdosit bothers me that all of them are weak to electric
I don't really use the general but if anyone wants to WP this.1138200540943921
>>56983075Nope, 3-stars don't pop up in WP.
>>56983075I need them all except blaine
>>56983073Maybe they can give them all double weaknesses
>>56983075>>56983080So if one card isn't available for WP the whole pack won't appear?Lame
>>56983093>So if one card isn't available for WP the whole pack won't appear?Yeah. Otherwise the odds wouldn't be 1-in-5.
>>56983093Your cards are in English so I'm still going to add you.
What's the opposite of topdecking
Having cards in your hand?
>>56983125Bottomdecking
>>56983125Topkeking
>>56983075I have no good decks and a garbage winrateMeanwhile you
>>56983035Lol. TCGP's launch made $120M in 3 weeks, which in spinoffs can only be compared Go's $200M in a monthMasters did $33M and is still alive
>>56983125Your opponent topkekking because you're busy bottomdecking
>>56982839>>SupporterNah, the Eevee card should do that shit by itself like many of its TCG counterparts.>Resonant Evolution>Signs of Evolution>Energy Evolution>Ascension>Ascension DNA
The current fire event is extremely boring but I imagine it'll be repeated many times with different card pools and it'll be how they make it easier for new players to catch up to others. The free picks make it very easy to complete a Blaine deck. Like I can see them doing it again with psychics which would make it easy to complete your Sabrina+Gardevoir playsets with the rare pick being a full art Alakazam.
>>56983165>The free picks make it very easy to complete a Blaine deck.These free picks have done jack shit to help me make a Blaine deck, I still have zero Blaine or good fire cards at all.
>>56983163I wonder when we'll start seeing retuned / alt versions of already printed mons besides promos.Of which only Mankey is actually an improvement, though a significant one at that.
>>56983075holy shit sent
>>56983165I got my missing Arcanine EX from it so I'm quite happy. There could be a lot more to it yeah but it is what it is.
I got a FA EX Pika, and I swear I saw a weird glow in the package as I was scrolling past them looking for a bent one. Lo and behold there were rainbow effects as soon as the package opened. Man, fuck the ways the game does this little things to fuel the rare pack delusions.>no imageI got the 900s thing for my phone, I'll post it as soon as that's finished.
>>56983178I would assume minisets are there for that. But for a lot of Kantooooomons you can expect plenty of alts even in the bigger expansions.
>Lapras EX is not an improvement over LaprasDebatable.
>>56983125Bricking/drawing a brick.
>>56983174Sounds like a skill issue, there's already a bunch of Blaine pilled anons I've seen here already
>>56983200Enjoy your rituals but lay off the drugs.
>>56983214>Sounds like a skill issue,Yeah. I've pulled 5+ of every common and 2+ of every uncommon (except Rapidash, which I already had 2 of). If you don't have the Blaine deck by now it's because you haven't let DeNA condition you to obsessively open Pocket.
>>56983174>he didn't do permanent damage to his brain by giving into the skinnerbox and setting an alarm to check the wonder picks every 30 minutes lmaoing@u
>Rare pick has shown up 5 times now>Pull Blaine/Charmeleon each time
>>56983215No drugs involved, no other pack has glowed like that before for me. It was subtle, blink and you miss it kinda thing.
unironically the kanto overbloat is killing this game
You're wasting your glass on Arcanine? Wait for a real pack to show up with Arcanine and a FA or another EX. 2-in-5 chance you won't eat shit. Or did you want scrub Charizard and scrub Moltres?
Flareon Wonder Picked after eight tries. I wonder if the game knows today is my birthday?
>>56983200Done.
>>56983258lol. Lmao even
>>56983257DO NOT OPEN THIS SPILOER ::: the server decides your fate when you click "Open a Pack" everything after that is sizzle
>>56983265Happy birthday anon
Someone explain the special shop ticket It takes 200 tranny cards to get 1 special ticket, but it takes like 12 special tickets to buy 1 thing with it?And why does it say you obtain them by consuming rare cards? You can just delete cards for points?
Would EX Gengar be too strong if his ability was in effect even when benched?
>>56983274>You can just delete cards for points?Yeah. I forgot all the exchange rates but IIRC a one star can be ground down for one ticket and a crown can be ground for 64 tickets.
>>56983260>Or did you want scrub Charizard and scrub Moltres?I don't have either of those and wouldn't mind the Arcanine ex flair, so I figured 3/5 odds are pretty good but missing them 5 in a row is fucked
>>56983281Just let me use his ex ability at game start if I have him in my deck please, he needs the buff
>>56982364I'm probably going to waste mine on two Vileplumes because I really want to try a Caterpie + Vileplume line sleep turbo shitty petdeck >Just use WigglytuffNo
>>56983289How do you do it? Flair?
>>56983313yup, flair option
>>56982341It's coming along. I'm missing some key pieces here and there for some decks, but I think I'm doing alright for F2P.
>>56982364Hold for miniset bros, the pack points should be able to be used for that pack too
>>56983313Correct. So you need to spend dust alongside the card and it won't let you grind them up unless you have more than 2 copies.>>56983289* => 1 ticket** => 5 tickets*** => 12 ticketsI don't have a \o/ to check but 64 sounds right.
In my experience, Arcanine is the best deck that can use fossil for tricks. It's like super simple and easy. Managed to earn my finals wins up to 50 with it.
>>56983274That thing is there just to tempt retards into spending money since you get plenty of those that way
>>56983344The special shop coin flips better than the peasant coin.
>>56983234sounds like cope, just get gud
>>56983351Sorry, I already learned the balance of my Meowth coin. Even if you're telling the truth, I don't want to have to figure out how to optimally flip a new one when a light flick to the upper-left already guarantees me a heads with Meowth.
>>56983353w-what am I coping with?
>>56983366>If you don't have the Blaine deck by now it's because you haven't let DeNA condition you to obsessively open Pocketexcuses for your lack of skill, many such cases
>>56982584This one >>56982341 >>56983322 comes from this link: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/1fu76x4/a_spreadsheet_for_tcg_pocket_that_calculates_the/It gives you a rough calculation of which pack you should pull for maximum chance of new cards and what you should pull for Mew progress specifically.This one: https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1fvujm8/ptcgp_collection_tracker_1023_immersive_mew/doesn't give you the same calc, but it does track if you have playsets of everything and tells you what exact mons you're missing and which packs they come from for Mew.I use both.
>Player actually has the Erika coinWhy would you spend $20 on 3 cosmetics
>>56983381Haha.. yeah... what idiots!*swaps out my erika coin*
>>56983381I play Counterstrike.
Any good Grass deck to beat the Expert Fire AI for an exlet?
>>56983399Pinsir has your back.
>>56983389Like, I GET IT if you're some huge gooner and have terabytes of Erika sniffs. But if you're not? Why?
>>56983398so that's why they made the rainbow coin
A single glance at the wonder pick menu button will tell you to go top right.
>>56983399you click concede as soon as they play charizard ex and until they brick hard enough whatever trash you have can kill them before they play the zardanything you have in your collection cobbled together can do this, gl
>>56983241how are you still functioning, you must be panting like a dog every time you open the app
>>56982764>Being able to poison with Grimers attack would be a huge boon for Muk.I was going to say no because you'd do more damage just attacking for 70 twice, but then I realized you could do SOMETHING while at 2 energy and that's better than nothing.
>>56983443>but then I realized you could do SOMETHING while at 2 energy and that's better than nothing.That's my issue with a lot of the evolutions desu
>>56983214Luck is not a skill.
WHEN IS THERE MORE CONTENTWHY IS IT SO DEVOID OF CONTENT
This whale I've posted about before is getting closer to the level cap
>>56983469He's at 6800 cards now
>>56983457If you don't have the ability to channel the heart of the cards and get whatever outcome you want on command, you shouldn't be allowed to play card games
>>56983460They're a small, tiny, underfunded company. They couldn't possibly have anticipated this game would be such a hit. Prease understand.
>>56983477Does he have a showcase? How many golds?
>>56983460Venusaur event Friday, new promos and cosmetics
>>56983440Yeah, but have you considered that my Magmar is now shinier than yours?
>>56983273Thank you.
I only play this game because Jigglypuff is my favorite Pokemon and I will play any game where she is even remotely worth using, because there are very few of them. Also Live isn't one of them.
>>56983481He does, from what is on display he has at least one gold Pikachu and one gold Mewtwo. His primary display and binder are both themed around Cubone and Marowak
>>56983494Based. Promo jigglytits will be meta
>>56983498Forgot pic
Whats promo 8 and 10
>>56983281The only thing it does is cuck Misty decks and stop from DrawingTrainers are insanely underpowered for it to matterI think Gengar would vastly improve if it stops items as well
I never thank anyone that runs a meta deck even when I win.
>>56983525Give me a better off meta deck to use with pidgeot besides arbok. I just got a full pidgeot and want to use it with something different
>>56983494she's getting a promo version on friday that's pretty decent and better than the base version like mankeys ismight make wigglytuff ex a t2 deck
>>56983535Anything that can create consistent and fast pressure.Think for yourself for once idiot.
>>569835188 is undisclosed I believe, I'm guessing another Trainer card. 10 is the upcoming Mewtwo
Have you taken the kang pill yet?
>>56983454The underlying problem is that on EX mons are allowed to have two attacks.
>>56983505Very cute.
>>56983559Might as well run a normal Mewtwo instead in that slotSo you can use his new Premium pass card in 4 days
>>56983538What do you even run her with though. Weezing? I need a second Wiggly EX
I still have not gotten a single arcanine from the wp pick event :/
>>56983457It unironically is
>>56983558>I'm guessing another Trainer card.I'll take that a step further and guess it's probably a Supporter, since it comes after Oak.
I know we said this at launch but the meta is unironically too fast already. They could have eased up to this level of power
>>56983535I recently ripped an alt art pidgeot from wonder picks for my second pidgeot for my pidgeot decks, I got you it's my favorite deck I've built recently You can put pidgeot with a lot, I've seen weezing, marowak ex, any good stage one and it'd be decent
>>56983586The game would genuinely be 10x more fun without any EX cards. Or just go back to the standard 6 KO format for fucks sake, that's what EX was designed for.
>>56983600I think it's bullshit that Pokeball can search out EX cards I think EX cards should also be limited to 1 card in the deck so you are forced to run the alternative versions of the cardsLike what is even the point of Mewtwo regular when you can just run 2 Ex?
>>56983600I doubt they want this to be any slower, it's meant to hold the attention of actual children
>>56983469just like everyone else
>>56983611Obviously, what I mean to say is he's much closer than you or I
>>56983600It should just be 4. EX cards are whatever, there's always going to be best cards. But EX cards downside is so minimal because not using them is only one extra KO which is who the fuck cares tier
>>56983606>I think EX cards should also be limited to 1 cardThis never solves the problem it just makes it three times more frustrating to lose to it.
>>56983608Actual children enjoyed playing stuff like the haymaker format even with shit off-meta decks. I know, because I was one of them
>>56983460>>56983479we're already in the middle of an event
>>56983574i think weezing is the most popular version but realistically you can put her in any color deck
>>56983629We're done with the event give us another one before people with jobs can finish this one.
>>56983619Having to kill 2 EX and a basic sounds miserable, 4 is retarded Imagine you go into misty and you have to kill a Kang, then starmie and articuno to win
>>56983606I think 2 EX is ok, but I agree there should be a cap. Either 2 EX total, or 1 copy of each named EX. Probably the former.>>56983619Yeah its kinda nuts, if your opponent gets two kills on your non-EX cards your EX card no longer has any downside whatsoever. This is also true in a 6 KO format but the difference between 2/3 and 5/6 is massive.
>>56983600Giving us the option for custom matches with more points or larger decks is a must
>>56983559No, I'm still missing 1 Krabby.
>Stalltoise crushes Pikachu EX, opponent constantly dragging out turns when he realizes my win-con is assembled in the back and all I need to do is switch it in and only 4heads can OHKO>doesn’t thank me Some people need to get good, meta players are so fragile
What will be the rewards of the inevitable clan system?
>>56983643I still need Misty.
>>56983632The problem is it feels like she just kind of exists in most decks without really adding anything.
>>56983644Based. I tried that yesterday and I really liked the results. My deck was suboptimal with one Blastoise ex and one standard but it still put in work
>>56982847i was like this until i managed to build blaine, fucker destroy anything and is cheap as fuck,
>>56983644I had a nail biter of a game with a off meta brew I was trying of rapidash, jynx, and flareon vs blastoise exI killed one pokemon to get one point, then proceeded to put 2 blastoise ex to 10 hp left before losing the game
>>56983571If I redeem the free trial right now will that mean I can get both the Pikachu and this?
Is regular Marowak slept on?
I kind of love how braindead and basic this deck has been
>>56983692
>>56983692Farfetchd does 40 damage for only 1 energy, whats so great about regular marowak?
>>56983710It does 60 to most electric and normal pokemon, I guess.
>>569837102 hits
>>56983629That event sucked dick. Maybe if the special pick wasnt 3 fucking wonder picks it would be worth it. Wasting 3 on a 1/5 chance when it takes too damn long for the picks to recharge is gay
>>56983728>past tenseBased.
>>56983723I mean if i had to pick a specific fighting type for pikachu, id rather use dugtrio or sandslash
>>56983674>pic relatedpretty fun deck
I WANT TO PLAY EELEKTROSS WITHOUT PIKACHU. IS IT POSSIBLE?
>>56983753if you're playing pikachu you probably don't want him anyways
>>56983753Yeah just run a stall package like hypo, pincurchin, or something
>>56983753>Pincurchin but slow and even less consistentWow.
>>56983753Lt Surge and Raichu? Use it early then swap it for Raichu later I guess.
Kino
>>569837532 snorlax and 2 hypno and pray you just roll a bunch of heads, electric only
>>56983788Not Pocket cards. These would have to be EX to have 2 attacks.
>>56983788How will these cards work & the magby (for example) work in regards to our current magmar, will we get a new magmar?
>>56983735Reminds me I had a battle today where the guy bricked against my Psychic but tried to win solo with Dugtrio. It flipped enough heads to get to the point where it was Turn 27, the Dugtrio had 9 fighting energy, and both players had gone through their entire decks
Fuck, I have to go for it, don't I?
>>56983434I finally did it but it took me lots of luck with coin flips to even pull it off
>>56983816>3 new cards>2 to complete mew>good exphell yeah
what kind of cuck sends a thanks after losing lmaoooo
>>56983822Glad you got it bro
>>56983845 c >>56982465He could be trying to send spam.
>>56982364Gonna use it on (2nd) Erika or Sabrina fullart.The only reason to play this shitty game is for collecting waifu after all.
>>56983816Decks for Charizard and Machamp?
>>56983856>no FA gardevoiruh huh
>>56983845I'm just trying to be nice...
>>56983845When you don't Thanks me, that's the true W. I remember the name of all my opponents and the ones I beat. I'm looking for you, and when I go to my inbox and see that you didn't give Thanks. I won, I beat you in game, I beat you mentally, spiritually, and it feels so SOOO fucking good. Thanks for the game kid.
>>56983860Moltres EX to ramp Charizard EX.Onix to wall for Machamp EX. Brock is extra copies of X Speed for Onix where sometimes you get to swing with it.

>>56983891Oh. LMAO. I thought you were asking how to build them.I beat the fire deck with Pinsir. >>56983434 had the right answer, scum until they brick.I beat the fighting deck with Pincurchin but I'm sure other things would have worked.Would you mind listing and enumerating your grass and lightning cards?
>>56983795Not an actual rule.It leaves them more design space/powercreep + simplifies the launch of the game.
>>56983891I did beat 'em all to, you know?For Zard (I'm assuming you want an all grass deck) I just used my main Venu ex/Lilligant deck, because I couldn't be fucked to build a low-rarity grass deck and just got that in another attempt.For Champ, I used:2 Electrode2 PincurchinMagnetonHeliolisk2 Oak2 Balls2 Sabrina2 SurgeGioPotion

>>56982341Got the Mew, just missing Charizard ex, Greninja, Alakazam, Gengar, Mewtwo, Marowak, Nidoqueen, Pidgeot and Porygon from the main set. I somehow pulled the special arts for Alakazam, Nidoqueen, Pidgeot and Porygon (TWICE for all of them except Pidgeot) and Greninja is in the next promo pack, so I'm not too worried about them.Pulling Charizard packs to try and grab Charizard ex, after that I'll probably start pulling Mewtwo packs so I can at least get Porygon and Marowak because they're just uncommons.

It's pretty much confirmed that misty has a lower chance of landing heads than other cards right? I swear its a 75% tails first flip.
This shit is too funny man

>>56984043I've been getting more than 10 a day. It's a scheme to condition you to open the app every 30 minutes.
Anyone running Greninja/Bruxish? I ran into one, it's an interesting deck. Double greninja can do 40 every turn to your backline and sets up Bruxish to easily hit for 70-90 every turn.
>>56984051Who the hell is Bruxish?
>>56984043I've been averaging 1 bonus pick every 2-3 hours.

>>56983924that pack would be so fucking good if misty replaced blainOn the bright side they could have had one waifu in each pack instead of just being able to focus on two
>>56984071Oh I have two of this guy. Might try that deck after I farm Venusaur.
>>56983306I was thinking of that one too
If you play Bruxish you're spiritually diseased
>>56984071The amount of cards with 90 HP feels downright vindictive like they actively chose it so that they would be one shot by Starmie/Pikachu

>>56984096>modern/weeb shit>©1993-2005I guess it was always furpilled. I only ever played MTG as a kid with my older cousin and his friends, but now I wouldn't touch it, especially after what I saw they did to my boy Jace. I hate furries. I'd sooner start buying physical pokemon cards.

>>56984166We really need them so metal, dark, and dragon type decks can get real support to do what the other decks are already doing.
how the fuck do you beat charizard decks
I have never thanked a single player in my thousands of matches, there is nothing more cucked than rewarding an opponent for a luck based game.
>>56984194It's a DPS check to see how quickly you can kill Moltres. And sometimes they lose to themselves by flipping too many tails.
>>56984194Smack the heck out of them before they set up. Maybe you can Sabrina them into losing all the energy they put on their Charmander.
>>56984194Aggro, charizard is the best slow build up deck
whats your shitty hot take? I think ex exeggutor is a dog shit card and it tanking doesn’t mean shit if you lose 2 points. The retreat cost is horrific so your opponent can play around it. Compare this to zapdos or moltres who have low retreat costs and can pivot at low hp so you don’t have to let them get ko’d
>>56984194ironically ninetails/blaine decks do pretty good because they start doing 90 turn 2 while zapdos isn't doing shit till turn 3 and charmeleon needs 3 energy to hit for anything. I've had decent luck using team rocket decks against moltres+zard by using sabrina to switch them off their loaded up zard and locking them down with arbok against their useless 1 energy moltres.
>>56984207>>56984208>>56984212almost every game I've played they have it out on their 3rd turn with 5+ energies wtf
I bonus picked again. Spoilers: I didn't get Blaine. (bonus spoilers: I still have no Blaines).
>>56984213grass decks aren't built around maneuvering between pokemon but having them soak damage with their huge health pools and then healing them back up with erika/potions/butterfree. IMO EX eggs is much stronger than venusaur which takes too long to get set up and only hits for 100 with 4 energy when eggs can hit for 80 with just one.
One day we're going to be nostalgic for this set and this meta
EX Eggs is also one of the few cards where you don't care if you have to go first since you can't evolve turn 1 anyway.
>>56984230yeah but if you get it set up properly, against a lot of decks venusaur ex is the unkillable god demon that heals everything you throw at it
>>56984230Can is the key word. Your damage is inconsistent, he can just sit there and job to weezing sometimes. Keeping alive is fine but not when your opponent is powering up a dragonite, blastoise, alakazam, machamp or more. Exeggutor is good when its good and bad when its bad. You are really forced to leave that thing in and let it die when other tanks that provide support can be retreated. Venu auto wins when it comes out, its a good cars but theres no good energy support for it.
>>56984233Someone else posted this and I stole it. A handy list of all the stage 1 Pokemon that can attack for one energy
>>56984232I'm dropping the game when they add fairy type. Half the appeal of playing pocket over the actual TCG is not having to seeing fuckass apple garbage bag and keyring pokemon.
>>56984215Every time I've tried to face a charizard deck with blaine I've gotten destroyed. 2x moltres + maybe an arcanine ex is just so much HP to chew through and they basically only need one moltres coin flip going off to get ahead of you.
I saw someone propose that rhydon was the worst card in the game, and I would agree. Any other contenders?What about best individual card in a vaccum? I wanna say it's Starmie
>>56984232this launch set is fun af, lots of offmeta builds you can make and nothing too oppressive (misty is gay and broken but she flips tails less than half the time so its fine)
>>56984250I'm convinced this card exists just to take space as a bad card for gacha purposes.
>>56984244Whimsicott is one of my favorite pokemon so it makes me sad that he's stuck in the position of shitty Raticate reskin. Raticate is also one of my favorites but this role is fitting for him.
>>56984240>unkillable god demonif you don't have the optimal setup of erika+potions in hand and butterfree on your bench, he still dies to two psy drives. it's just not as strong of a win con as a lof of the other meta shit, and is too energy hungry for how your only option to even feed him more energy is liligant. EX eggs gets active instantly and if it's really necessary, you can slap an extra energy and xspeed to save it from death, but even if it dies, it probably died tanking hits while your benched pokemon was getting built up to revenge kill.
>>56984266EX soon, trust the plan.
how does a game like this that should be incredibly easy to make content for have more of a drought at launch than something like Pokémon unite that actually needs to develop playables
>>56984216huh?T1: nothingT3: evolve Charmander, attach Moltres, Inferno Dance HHH to CharmeleonT5: evolve Charmeleon, attach Charizard, X Speed, retreat to Charizard => Charizard out with 4 energyor T5: evolve Charmeleon, attach Charizard, Inferno Dance HTT to Charizard => Charizard 5+ energy but not out(so they can't be going first in your gripe)(if they're doing)T2: attach Moltres, Inferno Dance HHH to CharmeleonT4: evolve Charmander, attach Moltres, Inferno Dance HHT to CharmeleonT6: evolve Charmeleon, attach Moltres, retreat to Charizard => Charizard out with 5 energy(consider the following line)T1: nothingT3: evolve Ponyta, evolve Vulpix, attach Rapidash, Blaine, Fire ManeT5: attach Ninetales, Blaine, Fire Mane => Moltres is dead, Charizard switches inT6: evolve Charmeleon, attach Charizard, Crimson Storm => down to 2 energy, Rapidash is dead, Ninetales switches inT7: attach Ninetales, FlamethrowerT8: attach Charizard, Slash (if Moltres hit 6 heads they're the better player and they Crimson Storm)T9: attach Ninetales, Flamethrower => Charizard is dead, you win
>>56984245The TCG dropped fairy type and lumped them all in with psychic. That's why you see Clefairy and Clefable are weak to steel type in this game
>>56984265I'd say he's better than Magmar. Heatmor can reasonably get 2 attacks off in the early game while Magmar will likely only get 1. Blaine doesn't even synergize well with Magmar because it doesn't hit any noteworthy breakpoints and with Ninetails burning energy you never have any to spare to give Magmar 2. Heatmor's better at filling the role of non-evo, non-ex, low investment fire attacker. Not that it's a role you'd ever want unless there was like an aggro grass deck to beat, but hey.
>>56984276Economics.Unite requires a higher level of effort in order to get a return on investment (people won't play it if it doesn't have a certain amount of effort in it). TCGP has a lower threshold of effort needed before people are willing to play it.Gacha games are probably the biggest example of economic efficiency in action. The very first TCG game was a $30 full fledged game with 8 gym leaders, characters, a rival, storyline, and great music. It wasn't all that popular for a pokemon game. Its just not economically efficient when they can slide the effort/profit ratio much further.
>>56984250there's plenty of basics with no evo's that are useless but rhydon seems like one of the worst. 4 energy attack cost with no in archetype support to feed it energy. 4 energy retreat cost meaning you'll basically never do it. only 120HP so it can't tank as much as most EX's can. Is a stage one you need to evolve to. 100 damage is good, but not enough that you can expect to sweep with after you lose 2 points building it up. Maybe fighting types will get more support and Rhypherior will make it relevant somehow but for now it's one of the worst cards for sure. I don't think I've seen a single person run it.
>>56984278>have to play Blaine deck, have 2 Blaines in hand by your 3rd turn, cant use any other supporter on T3/5*shits on you*
>>56984297>great musicnot you again.
>>56984266Cottonee has 10 more health than Rattata but does 10 less damage.The real criminal here is Mienfoo. 20 more health than Rattata for the same damage.
>nobody likes to play single player card gamestragic
>Misty faggot Red cards me first turn>proceeds to fuck up two Misty coin flips>immediately concedesHahaha hahahaha
>>56984316wow bro, unseen
Are Misty players really fags? I mean there's no other way to play water that isn't just straight suicide is there? At least fire has options besides Charizard.
>>56984316>opponent has articuno EX and/or Starmie EX on the board>misty flips tails>conceedsI can't understand this mentality. Misty flipping 50 heads in a row is not the wincon, having your obnoxiously strong EX pokemon out is. They both only take 2 energy to attack too, so it's not even like misty is necessary to make the deck work
>>56984194Kill Moltres then Sab in a shitmon for point 3, a lot of Charizard players play pretty passively so you can set up as you like. The tourneyfag Arcanine/Zard hybrid decks will run you over though, at that point just pray
>>56984329>Are Misty players really fags?Yes
>>56984303Pocket is F2P friendly. ;)
List all decks for fags.List all decks for not fags.
>>56984309I'm more upset that Whimsicott is just a basic beater than at it being bad. Whimsicott is a speedy grass type with prankster. He should have some annoying status inflicting attack, and like a 0 retreat cost to mimic his speed and access to U-Turn.
>>56984343Whimsicott as the grass Electrode would be neat.
>>56984332Misty players have PTSD from Pikachu ex decks that make their Pokemon seem incredibly fragile. They think if they don't have an immediate advantage by turn one there is no reason to play. Truly the most despicable players
>>56984213Pikachu is balanced and an overall positive good for the meta that helps keep cancer (Misty) out. I say this as mainly a Mewtwo player although I have dabbled in Pika
>>56984332The funniest part is that his red card completely screwed me over and I had to pray to hard draw something good next turn before he conceded, it's not like I had a Mewtwo with 6 energy on the field or anything, he could've won if he kept playing instead of having a "3/0 stomp or nothing" mentality.
>>56984342Anything with Misty in itPika EXMewtwo EXany version of DragoniteLiterally every other deck
>>56984354Koga deck is gay as shit for being the meta gatekeeper. "I'm not as bad as those other decks guys, honest! I don't even use ex cards!"
>>56984342>Non-fagsMachampBrockDarkSteelGrassWigglytuff GengarAlakazam Blastoise Blaine >FagsEverything else, but especially Mewtwo because he has the hips of a woman but identities as a male (and I think Mew is female or something so he basically is trans since he's male and went from female to male)

>>56984361Watch Pokémon the first movie lorelet, Mewtwo didn't evolve from Mew
>>56984310I do bro, i completed the two gbc games almost to 100% and frequently think about them as well as the Yu-Gi-Oh games.
>>56984310Does Slay the Spire count? I love that shit.
>>56984310Yu-gi-oh in and of itself is basically a single player card game.
>>56984329https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/pocket-league-legends-8/player/kricso/decklistIt’s not so much the inclusion of Misty but the way Misty plays (thoughtless sink or swim coin flips from turn 1) hampers their development as players and leads them to do other retarded shit ie slamming down the red card turn 1 like a monkey or using terrible builds like 18T Articuno (or similar variants) instead of experimenting with building at all. Misty should be included in most water decks but her effect had the consequence of creating a generation of dopamine-starved rng fishermen
They should add emotes or pre-set messages in PVP
>>56984370This conclusion is mainly based around the idea that the Mewtwo in the first movie and the Mewtwo in the 16th Pokemon movie (Genesect and the Legend Awakened) are the same Mewtwo. This runs contrary to what is generally considered to be canon, but, please consider -- really the only piece of evidence suggesting that the Mewtwo in the 16th movie is different than the one in the first movie is the fact that new Mewtwo has a woman's voice instead of a man's (and she doesn't recognize Ash, but I'll address that bit later on).Consider the principle of Occam's Razor. The more assumptions you have to make, the more unlikely an explanation is. The two possible explanations for the differences between the Mewtwos in these movies is that it's either a different Mewtwo, or, it's the same Mewtwo but she identifies as female now. Therefore, the assumptions we have to make are:A team of scientists, completely unrelated to the ones who created "the original" Mewtwo, found a sample of Mew's DNA, decided to clone it, but then decided to alter its DNA to make it more powerful, and decided to make the exact same changes to its DNA that the original team of scientists did (despite not having any connection with those scientists or any knowledge that they even existed -- or if they did know about the original scientists, then they should know that attempting to create Mewtwo is a bad idea), and then, when "new Mewtwo" came into existence, it went into the same sort of blind rage as old Mewtwo, killing all the scientists and destroying the lab, and flew off wondering what its place in life was until it eventually went through the same character arc as the first Mewtwo and realized "it's what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are" and all that good stuff. ORThe Mewtwo from the first movie eventually realized it identifies as a woman and was able to change its voice accordingly.
>>56984358>koga seethemad cuz bad lil bro, make better offmeta decks
>>56984391>first Tails Misty>"Thanks. Thanks. Thanks."
>>56984394*drop kicks you into a volcano*
>>56984394And, no, I'm not just assuming that new Mewtwo has the same backstory as old Mewtwo when their origins could actually be completely different. Because the 16th movie addresses Mewtwo's backstory, and, yes, it's pretty much exactly the same as what the first one went through. And I know that Pokemon lore is generally really inconsistent about how many of each legendary pokemon are supposed to exist (with many of them being built up like there's only one, until we eventually see more of them for... some reason), but with Mewtwo in particular, it makes absolutely no sense that there could possibly be two of them, especially when the 16th movie directly states that this Mewtwo has the exact same origin story as the first.Now, as for Mewtwo being able to change his/her voice: this makes a lot of sense when we consider the fact that the only reason Mewtwo can "talk" at all is because it's telepathic. There are no actual vocal cords involved here. And we don't know exactly how this telepathy works in relation to gender, but, I have a few possible explanations:Mewtwo is in complete control of how it wants its mind-voice to sound, and can therefore change its voice to whatever it wants to sound like.The "sound" of the telepathic voice is dependent on one's inner voice -- in other words, what Mewtwo sounds like in its own head. And if Mewtwo started seeing itself as a woman, then it makes sense that its inner voice would change accordingly -- and, consequently, so would its "outer voice".The second explanation is more likely I think, but, really, both would explain the change.And really the most fascinating thing about this to me is that, if they simply gave Mewtwo a different male voice actor, no one would've cared. Even if the new VA sounded nothing like the old one, people would still be perfectly willing to assume that this is the same Mewtwo. But because it sounds like a woman now, that means it must be a different Mewtwo. .

>>56984426Sure feels like it
>>56984358To be fair you have to have a really high iq to use a Koga deck
>>56984426Yeah. Spending 2 energy to "gain" 1 energy isn't good. Especially given that you're not guaranteed to draw Petlil+Liligant and you're putting up zero offensive pressure. You could instead spend 1 energy on Executor EX and start dealing more damage sooner with a higher HP pool, and then that second energy you would've given to Liligant just goes on your Bulbasaur so he gets energy just as fast.Also if you go first then you're in a shitty position where you either evolve Petlil and don't get to attack or attack with Petlil(for 10 lmao) and risk it being KO'd. Wheras Executor just comes out swinging on turn 3 with 40-80 damage.
>>56984426>>56984431T1: grass on lillT2: grass on lill, 1 on bulbT3: 3 grass on bulbIn these three turns, you could have just placed it on bulb instead and have the same amount of energy, Then turn 4 you don't need an extra grass energy since Venusaur is your one and only game plan really.So at Turn 4, when Lilligant really starts accelerating she's already useless.Of course, compared to hard putting it on bulba, you get a 100 baseline that can do 50 damage and start setting up targets for ohko range, or killing stuff herself too, but Venusaur doesn't need things to be one shot, you can survive getting hit that's the entire point.Lilligant is 4 cards in your deck for honestly not that amazing upsides, and you have to draw both of them, and you need them ASAP otherwise the acceleration is actually worthless.And at only 100 HP, not to mention having to survive as a petil, you'r just asking to be knocked out.Especially when lilligant has to attack twice in order to break even, which is honestly asking a bit much of her sadly, unless you dedicate your heals to lilligant instead of Venusaur which will hurt you late game.The 2 grass requirement is just bad, and she doesn't work with Venusaur, more so working with potentially grass aggro to be on the offensive with lill while not losing steam to back line attackers, but even not sure would have to experiment, since Eggs is one of your better aggro options and only takes 1 grass, same for beedrill.I'm quite upset because I don't know what to do with Lilligant beside like what Gogoat?
>>56984472Check back in a year when we have Sceptile
>missing 3 cards to get Mew>all of them are 3 diamondI hate this rarity so much
>>56984515Trading 3 diamond cards maybe soon
>>56984472Scyther is pretty good
Fuck you guys im now running an EXeggutor EX deck. Half my wins have just been people quitting because matches are taking too long.
>>56984549congrats
Raichu is more fun than Pikachu
>>56984549>people quitting because matches are taking too long.MY STRAT for the 5 wins in a rowRope the FUCK outta them
>>56984554I stopped enjoying Raichu as much when I realized that it was extremely similar to Mewtwo just instead of needing to find your stage 2 to generate energy you need to find a supporter to transfer it.
>>56982613>a Gardevoir can fully power up a Jynx the turn she comes out so you don't even need to invest energy into her.This is the true strength of Jynx in a Mewtwo deck. The fact that your opponent won't see it coming, and won't hesitate to attach energy because they don't know that Jynx is waiting in your hand to sneak up on them and hit them for 110 damage as a single prizer with only two energy.That's also why Alakazam is a little BITCH despite hitting harder than Jynx, because the second your opponent sees an Abra they already know your gameplan.
>Waiting for Opponent to returndid they close the app or something?
>>56984620Sometimes it's bad connection, sometimes they close the app on accident trying to check something else. I've had it crash in my emulator and was able to still boot up again and get back into the same game.
>>56984568It's still a nice panic button to have I think, of course I don't have any Zapdos so maybe I'm just coping
>>56984636iirc, one of those aggregate tournament tierlists pika/raichu placed higher than pika/zapdos. Zapdos can tank hits while you search for pikachu but raichu is much more consistent with delivering a 140 damage killing blow while zapdos has to coinflip and do 100 on average leaving shit like weezing alive.
>3rd BlaineGIMME THE FUCKING GLASS
>>56982262>Blaine vs Zard>opponent gets Zard on curve>knocks out both Ponyta with Slash>manage to get Aerodactyl on board>send Zard and Moltres (twice) back to deck>eventually brick him and knockout Moltres>he never draws CharmeleonGame stolen. Aerodactyl is pretty good in decks that want as few basics as possible.
>>56984620Phone screen goes to sleep waiting for you to finish your game of solitaire.
>>56984636Yeah, Raichu is nice to deliver a game winning blow for a Pikachu deck. It's just a bit disappointing that trying to make it the focus of your deck leaves you with a deck very similar to Mewtwo.
Alright fuckers, I'm tired of choosing. YOU pick the spot this time.
>>56984554>>56984568>playing mewtwo>opponent leads magnemite into magneton>can't kill fast enough cause can't draw gard>they build up enough Raichu manually then giovanni for the one shot>next turn they surge and do 140, forcing a retreat>next turn they surge again and that's gameHonestly I simply kneel
>>56984708You need to pick a spot and always pick that spot. Or always choose the spot that the card you want is in. If you switch around you will only disappoint yourself as you realize how close you were to getting it right. That way you let fate decide for you. Top right.
>>56984708top middle, BELIEVE
>>56984708Bottom right
>>56984708You're going to spend 3 stamina for a magikarp, really?Just use your pack points.Regardless, top middle.
>>56984708TOPRIGHTISALWAYSRIGHT
>>56984472Lilligant EX will save her.
>>56984714>>56984717>>56984719>>56984720>>56984721Well, top middle had two votes, so it's gotta be that, right? I got the Karp. The exs were top right for Blastoise and bottom right (my usual pick) for Zap. I'm never trusting you morons again.
>>56984737>The exs were top right for BlastoiseTOPRIGHTIS ALWAYSRIGHT
>>56984737We told you top right though.
>>56984720Why did you jinx it for top middle believers you shit
>>56984737it doesn't matter which card you pick, the card you get is predetermined
>>56984737I only ever pick top rightI was a top middle anon using my ESP to try and get you karp lmaoSeems it worked out.>>56984748BECAUSE I'M A TOP RIGHT CULTIST AND IT HAS SERVED ME WELL FOR THREE EXS SO FARTHE FALSEFLAGGING WORKED
>>56984737I told you bottom right broI told you
>>56984765I know. I let my faith waver and reaped the consequences for it. I think the free fire picks messed with my path of truth and this was a harsh lesson to stay the course.
>>56984737The button to get to wonder pick shows the card is in the top right. Why would you ever go anywhere else?
>>56984708For once I'd like to actually open a pack like this with two exs or something. I'd even take the shittiest god pack with five full art digletts, just to feel something
>>56984824Yeah, I know the feeling. Outside of the starting several packs (when they more freely throw exs our way to get us hooked), this was the best pack I got so far.
>send out your god mon>outplay the shit out of your opponent>they flip 4 heads on zapdos and win anywayWhy? Why are there things like that in this game?
>>56984843That's sweet! I still need any Alakazam or Exeggutor for Mew so I'm crossing my fingers for that exact same pack
>>56984819That's how they trick fools into wasting their picks.
>>56984250Worst pokemon - ivysaur/charmeleon, paras/jigglypuff, golem, rhydon, lickitung
>>56984854>why does this card game have rng mechanicsfirst time?
>>56983635Decks don't function like that, nobody is running multiple basics and enough EXs to where that'd come up much.
>>56984875rng mechanic with no counter play though. Theres no way to protect yourself from a 200 damage 3 bar attack.
>>56984878Yes they are
>>56984881correct, there's also no way to protect yourself from charizards 200 damage attack which relies on no rng whatsoever. Unlike charizard, zapdos doesn't have a support card or other pokemon to feed it that 3 energy either and is much squishier at 130 hp. zapdos is hitting for 200 damage just as often as it hits for zero, that's just the nature of rng. It's not consistent but you can play around the threat of getting hit for 100-200 damage and act accordingly. Run more status effect pokemon, sabrina cards, red cards, energy eating pokemon, arbok, whatever you need to do to limit your opponenet getting to flip those coins in the first place.
>>56984881Yeah you send out a Mon to chip it down then one shot so it doesn't use it's 200 attack on the poke you want
>>56984854>Why are there things like that in this game?Same reason that going first is strictly worse than going second.
>>56984915Depends on the deck.
Damn, I guess I'll play water decks now.If anyone is feeling lucky 9081-2428-3578-8850
>>56984913But my Mewtwo has 4 energy and I want to click the big damage button
>>56984918No it does not.
>>56984919>it's already in your featured binderYou work fast.
>>56984878Decks don't function like that because they don't need to if you lose 2-2,but literally all you need for 1-2-2 is another basic, even the mew list with basics can do that right now
>face 6 Japs>no thanks???I’m just playing Blastoise with Kanga, M2 and fossils???
>>56984919The FA Erika tooMan's assembling a harem
Still not a single FA trainer btw.
>>56984945No shit you retard. Japs don't send thanks. They send arigatous.
>>56984948Sabrina is next.
>>56984953I’m going to find where you live and I’m going to slide a hot knife into every single joint in your body one by one
>>56984962ありがとう!
Im at a point where im gonna run 2 baby mewtwos with venu
>>56984962>one by oneHow would you even slide a knife into two joints?
>game still has a memory leak>check reddit>already been reported>also happening in LDPlayer>everyone says it started after the recent app updateGood thing I already got my 45 wins or I'd be pissed. Also good that there's nothing to do in this game while I wait for them to patch their fuck up.
>>56984921Any deck running misty has a small chance to win before the opponent can even attack.
>>56984952you deserve it for whaling. gambling isn't a guarantee, you don't get what you pay for.
>>56984981Is that why I've noticed it has been lagging recently in some games?It only happens after a while, so sounds like it fits.
>>56984983Blastoise Stall runs one (1) misty and while it feels good to hit you can still brick even after getting 1000 energy from Misty
>>56984981>Good thing I already got my 45 wins or I'd be pissed.I don't think it would get in the way of battling. Isn't the leak related to panning the camera around while opening packs and ogling your collection?
>>56984983You wouldn't have this issue if you put two basics down.
>friend code is copy-pasted with dashes in it>to search someone up by friend code you CANNOT include dashes and the app can remove them for you BUT it has a character limit so it will crop off the last 4 digits, meaning you need to tab back to find the last 4 digits anyways>after doing so somehow the number is wrong anyways despite it being absolutely the correct digits
>>56984995>Is that why I've noticed it has been lagging recently in some games?It seems there's a memory leak in the PTCGP app and that all emulators are suffering. I don't play this game on my phone except to check wonder pick, so I don't have it open long enough to experience a memory leak there>>56984998>Isn't the leak related to panning the camera aroundNo. It just happens. I was leaving my instances open on the home screen and it was fucking my computer and force closing them if they sat for long enough. They just keep eating more and more RAM, not even doing anything in the apps.
>>56985005>dont' pull 2 basics in my first handwhoops!
>>56985018You wouldn't have this issue if you ran seventeen basics.
>>56984915False
>>56984996blastoise and any stage 2 mon for that matter can brick if you get unlucky. articuno/starmie are very unlikely to have this problem.
>>56984992I wasn't spending to get those specifically, I just spent because I like the game. It isn't that deep bro. I just thought it was funny.

>>56985081But it can one shot a Cubone.
can grass get a strong broken basic cars that can tank like moltres or zapdos? thanks.
>>56985096Not when it starts crying
I shall bakeShould we start doing thread numbers, or is it too late?
>>56985109Don't be a fucking faggot.
>>56985109Flip a coin and post the result
>>56985102I'm not sure what world you live in but I live in the world where the status effect Cubone applied to your Cottonee on T2 will get removed when you evolve it to Whimsicott during T3. Have you never evolved a pokemon?
>>56985109Go for it. Also, try to include a thread question to get discussion started.
>>56985101You're probably going to have to wait until Tapu Bulu, unless for some reason they decide to make Tropius or Carnivine actually good
>>56985109We also need ritualposters and a tripfag or two
>>56985096X-speed to Machop T2 when you see the Cottonee. I don't actually know what Marowak EX actually palys.
>>56985109I second >>56985117. Instead of a thread number we should have a growing list of heads and tails.
>>56984310slay the spire spawned a gazillion medium effort clones
>>56985132Carnivine is icky, but a good Tropius card would be based.
>>56985137Definitely not we have gacha addict doomposter and the rng or second turn sperg seethe already
>>56985132>TropiusI can see this Tropius making it into Pocket
>>56985117>>56985144Thirding, let's really make this coinflip game live up to it's reputation.
>>56985142I think they play Sandslash for the linesetup: Pikachu EX, SandshrewT1: nothingT2: energy, scratch for 10+20T3: energyT4: energy, evolve, slash for 70+20
>>56985159>two attacksTropius EX
>first ever creased pack gave me Marowak EX>every other creased or reversed pack after that hasn't given me anythingI think it only works once
>>56985204the first marowak ex is guaranteed if you picked mewtwo
>>56985205It was my second Marowak EX from a regular pack I mean
>>56985204>>56983272
>>56985204You have to do the spin and rotate ritual right or it doesn’t work, and you must choose, the left hand path, or the right hand path.
>>56984194hope they don't draw charizard https://files.catbox.moe/ccp4lw.mp4
>>56982662turning off the subscription is done entirely on Google/Apple's side, and Nintendo doesn't find out until it doesn't automatically renew.
>>56984250Compare Gyarados to Starmie Ex
>>56985205It's absolutely criminal that the starter decks aren't Venusaur, Blastoise, and Charizard.
If i get the premium pass will stuff auto unlock to complete or will everything have to start from scratch like packs pulled once activated.
>>56985243Can't be giving the genwunners the only card they want for free
>>56985258The former, they're about to reset in 4 days though so if you're going to get it do it soon
>keep pulling mewtwo packs hoping to get gardevoir and a second mewtwo ex>get my second articuno exI guess I'm a misty cuck now
>>56985243It's so bizarre that choosing Charizard gives you a grass deck.
What's that spare ex card you're immediately trading off the moment they open up the trade gates?
>>56985346Chari and Venu are best bros, simple as
>>56985349Spare?
>>56985349I haven't pulled a third copy of an ex yet. I'm getting rid of some fucking art rare cards as soon as I can, though.
Is Blaine a non-gay honorable deck?
>>56985349The only ex I have 3 of is Mewtwo so I guess him. I do have 2 ex Pika AND an immersive, but I want to maintain the playset of the normal one.
am I retarded or is there no way to spend gold and hoard hourglasses?do they really force you to spend hourglasses before using your gold?
>>56985355I mean any you don't really care for keepingI've got a lone Articuno ex and I don't really see myself bothering with the deck so that's probably going to be the first to go
>>56985349Marowak I hate her so much actuallyand if I can, Immersive Zard
>>56985366not sure for normal pulls but on wonderpicks you can manually adjust how many hourglasses and how much gold you spend.
>>56985366You're retarded for wanting to do that but FWIW you can choose to spend gold before spending wonder glass. For packs I'm fairly certain you have to spend the glass first.
>>56985349I really hope they're not going to require you have at least 3 before you can trade the card. I don't have more than 2 of any EX or full art.
>>56985366yupyou can choose what you want to spend with wonderpicks or event, but not packs
>>56985372>thinks you'll be able to trade cards you only have 1 of
>>56985384I trust the plan
Finally got a Gardevoir from a wonder pick, now I don't know if I should keep opening the Mewtwo pack or just get the 2nd copy with points.
>>56984329I hate misty so much, either>opponent get tails, inmediately surrenders>opponent get heads, mon get out of control
>>56985392Save up your points for cards you can't wonder pick.
The virgin strategic wonder pickThe chad open the game mash wonder pick and mash whatever the top option is without looking
>>56985429What about>(common card) is my favorite pokemon, so I will wonder pick it every time until I max out its flair
>>56985456You can barely flair commons. Or do you want 30 copies of the flair to fill out a binder?
>>56985429>implying I have the resources to mash WPGotta build my glasses back up, today was a disaster.
>>56985402Points will expire in January so I don't think I'll save enough to pick something better like a full art Sabrina

>>56985460How many copies do I need before the game tells me I can't hold anymore?
>>56982341I'm on my way to completing my Mewtwo. Once that's done I'll have completed the three main decks. Don't need anything else since the other decks are useless
