When is the Venusaur backdrop available?
finally started saving resources for the next set after opening enough packs for the greninja line. there's still some things I'm missing that I'd like to open, like regular wigglytuff and the second exeggutor ex, but they're not urgent so I'll just try to snipe them with WPs. got 27 hourglasses and 42 tickets
>>570084885 resets from now
thanks bro
What's stopping me from building a full sleepmaxxing deck with the new Puff, Wiggly, and 2 Hypnos?
post abilities you'd like to see in the game
I'm trying to grind for a promo Jigglypuff in each language and holy fuck in typical fashion is Korean not putting out.

Middlechad life
Bottom left has never steered me wrong!
The Haunter and Jigglypuff promos have new artwork that haven't been used on a real card before. I knew the full arts like Venusaur were all new in addition to the ex art but I was surprised to learn there's more than just that
Doesn't matter what I pick, I never get anything!
>>57008556already happened with other cards
>>57008539fuck yeah
>>57008564whoops, didn't mean to quote

>>57008600Damn, just look at all that chink, low-effort slop. Imagine how many millions of dollars retards all over the world spend on it daily and it all goes to fund the chinese army knocking on their door.

>mewtwo hits gardevoir on curve>still manage to stall the game out till turn 13 and winAll you need is to play your own mewtwo ex

>>57008608And what is that army gonna do? Eat me?
>>57008624Actually, yes.
>>57008562Such as?
>>57008600That's a bad thing. This just allows them to be even more stingy. And they're already stingy as fuck. They haven't given out hourglasses in the mail even once.

>>57008682Based as hell
Is the matchmaking rigged? I always get two in a row against the same general deck build. If it matches me with a Mewtwo EX deck the match after will be a Mewtwo EX. It does it for any deck too not just overused. Pikachu, Mewtwo EX, Articuno EX, Marowak EX, Dragonite. It always doubles up. There's no way it naturally matched me with the only two Marowak EX users back to back.
Should I buy the premium pass. Is it worth the promo and daily pack
>>57008694It absolutely has to be, I've noticed the same thing. Sometimes not even double ups but triple ups
>>57008705Yes.
>do a Wonder Pick>3 cards I already have, but could use a 2nd copy of>1 card I don't have>1 useless dupe>get the useless dupeEvery fucking time.
>>57008705Most value for packs, whether it's worth it or not is up to you, your money

autistically upset at them making the pack timer not a full 12 hours
>>57008708Don't fucking remind me. I'm still hounding for a Nidoran without spending points, and don't get me started on the 4◇ Nidoking ducking me for his 2 wife for the 5th fucking time this week.
>needed one Gengar or GengarEX for Mew >didn't want to use pack points>did 40 draws on Mewtwo banner >1x Marowak 4D >3x Golbat 1* >1x Weezing 1* >1x Dragonite 1* >2x Pidgeot 1*>2x Mewtwo Immersive >no Gengar of any type>no (new) 1* of Bulbasaur, Cubone, Porygon, or Ditto >ended up having to use pack points for Gengar anyways Please call me an idiot. Maybe it'll prevent me from doing this in the future. How the fuck does the game send me two extra Immersive Mewtwo before one Gengar of any flavor?
The only full art trainer I have is Giovanni
>>57008747I have 1 Misty, and that's it.
>>57008741>>3x Golbat 1*>>1x Weezing 1*>>2x Mewtwo Immersive>>no [card (You) want] of any typeHardly, that's just the Genetic Apex experience where the 3* are so much more common than the majority of 2* that it borders on comedy.Jealous of the Dragonite though, really want one but I'm here >>57008731 stuck on the Pikachu train. Though I might swap for my next 10 since I need both Beedrill and Vaporeon.
>>57008747At least he's universal and you can flex him on duels, I only got Koga and he's just there collecting dust until they introduce trading and he gets (hopefully) traded away for a Sabrina.
>>57008747I have no giovannis at all.
>>57008741I just noticed the full-art designs are very familiarAre these just ripped out from the main game 3D models?
>>57008758why havent you taken the weezing pill yet?
>>57008706But why? The code behind classifying a user made deck and then matching it up against another specific deck without creating a noticeable delay in the queue would be not only needlessly complex but also detrimental to the experience when people get pissed off that their Venusaur deck gets thrown into an unwinnable Charizard or Mewtwo matchup twice in a row. I threw that second Mewtwo match just seeing the ralts turn 1. Fuck that shit. I should run a deck with less hard counters, but if I have to fight my deck's counters back to back due to some weird soft-forced twice in a row I'm just going to stop trying on the double up after a loss.
>>57008764The game models were originally created by Creatures for Pokedex 3D and were then put into XY and the main series games with minor touchups since. They're probably just high poly high res textures of Creatures/GF's models.Also PLANETA are disgusting fucking cretins who will never create artwork that is unique or worth looking at.
>got 2 ex blastoise>already had an ex blastoise and fa ex blastoisei think the game is trying to tell me something...
>>57008741I pulled Mewtwos for ages also got no Gengars and no Porygon or Dittos but multiple of the same full arts as you. This is rigged.
CHADNETA are based though
>>57008802He also chose me, and I like playing it, it's a solid deck even with Misty being an useless whore.
Dragonite is fun.
>>57008836shameful deck anon, believe in the Bruxish
>>57008802the game over gives you one of the starters
>>57008764>>57008795PLANETA and takuyoa make their own models.Creatures and TPC supervise and are quite strict regarding the body proportions and the way the Pokemon are portrayed.https://www.ptcgic-cr.com/2024/en/column/article-9/
>>57008836deck specifications!?
making a deck in this game feels very jewish
Total metafag death.
So the premium pass missions are always the same?
Bros, I'm starting to think that revving up the coin actually works.
>>57008846I have 0 of each ex starter
>>57008904really I have restarted to them 3/4 times got a ex starter everyone time on this new saved I've kept i got two full art zards I cant wait to trade/sell
Finally got my second jiggly, 2 haunter, 5 greninja, 4 onix too. Now I can take it easy
>>57008600DeNa can kick their feet back now, prepare for no effort what so ever from this game

>>57008937That Sabrina is the first one I've seen.

>>57008747I have almost 1000 cards and have no full art trainers

>>57008995>someone took the time to care about thisI send thanks to anyone except people who let the timer run down, that shit is gay
Its really sad how bad lots of stage 2 non ex evolution cards are. No point in normal zard, venu, machamp, etc.
>>57008484Can you buy these?
>>57008995I don't thank Pikachu, and M2 niggers even when I win.
>>57009012Aliexpress
>>57008995I never thank Mistyniggers if they hit heads

>>57008995>tcg player / event>thank them every time>beginner>never thank pika/mewtwo/zard/mistyIt’s a simple system. I have noticed that my wiggly + greninja deck hardly ever gets thanks kek.
Thanks nyx, if you're here. I can't remember if you're someone I've added from here.
is misty an actual meta deck, people talk about it loads but it seems worse than mewtwo

Does Giovanni boost Greninjas Poké Power shuriken?
>>57009114No
>>57009114It's not an attack.
>>57008995It's really not surprising that an extreme aggro deck like Blaine doesn't get many thanks. I wouldn't expect Marowak to get many either. I'd be more interested in seeing how like a Greninja deck does on that front.
>>57008995I've definitely won Blaine games out of nowhere and had the thought, "I'm not getting a thanks for this"
>>57009008should ex be like 1 mewtwo per deck I feel like having two is just stupidly op
There's no good reason for Venusaur to have an event. It should be Charizard. I want Charizard accessories.
>>57009043I just started my own wiggly gren with jinx and Mawile and I just feel evil using it
>>57009151>with jinx and MawileHow much is the double energy screwing you?
>>57009082get 1 water from misty oh no my statmine ex needs only 1 more and I can kill anything
>>57009150Charizard accessories are going to be in the next premium missions given we have Pikachu and Mewtwo already.
>>57009153I screwed myself forgetting about the energys being differnet, I like mawile its good at killing turns I dont think jinx does enough dmg so I might look for something else to feel that gap
Rate this lil heal deck, could it be useful? Am i trash
>>57009182Lilligant just isn't good since it takes 2 energy to start being able to gain energy and 100 HP+50 damage sucks for a stage 1. You'll rarely be able to get more than 1 energy gained so you might as well play Exeggutor EX and just save 1 energy on its attack.
>>57009182Liligant usually dies before it breaks even. You would uniroinically get Venusaur EX online faster using Exeggutor EX.
When I ask this question, I'm not asking it to the logical parts of your brains: is it counterintuitive to wishlist 1 and 2 star cards, like FA Supporters or FA Rainbow borders? I want to wishlist the ones I want because I believe it'll magically show up eventually in my Wonder Pick options, but if I wishlist them, I'm worried that they'll never show up in my pulls because I've outright marked them as cards I'm looking for to the game. Thoughts? >inb4 schizoAny original thoughts?
>>57009182unfortunately, >>57009187>>57009194are rightas much as lilligant is cute and adorable, exegg performs better as a wall and damager
>>57008945MTG is ran by troons and has the most severe crackdown on sexy stuff by far
>>57009222mtg is just card game funkopops now
>>57009209>Any original thoughts?No but I'll tell you a ghost story. Gacha games don't give you the cards you're looking for. They can probably figure out want you want using metrics but you just went and told them. OoOoOoOoOoh ~scary~.
>>57009222remember black aragornlol
>>57009227So you're saying, yes, you *shouldn't* wishlist cards?
Yay
>>57009220SPICY TIP: if a Pokemon isn't from Kanto its card is probably bad. (Gardevoir, Greninja, and Bruxish are exceptions because people want to have sex with them)
>>57009017Funny stuff
>>57009243you dont want to have sex with lilligant?
>all my Charizard pulls lately have been garbage that is available in all 3 packsI just want a Primeape
>aliexpress shilling on /vp/ now
>>57009249t. some manner of insect
>>57009250Charizard has also been by far the worst pack to pull for me
>>57009251If theyre going to shill they might as well post some more fat tits
>>57009250>>57009253same, not even a competition.
>>57009220downside is that exeggutor is a wall that you are not gonna be able to retreat unless you waste energy on it, so that's 2 points for the enemy in most cases.
>>57009182As others have said, it looks like a discount Venusaur ex / Exeggutor ex deck. Use it until you can make pic related.
>>57009069it's pretty much exactly as volatile as Mewtwo, it's just more obvious about it.in tourneys, it performs the same on average.
while this game is too simple and there is no skill involved it has got me interested in trying the real tcg version
>>57009310>while this game is too simple and there is no skill involved it has got me interested in trying the real tcg versionHope you have the $1,000 a month you need in order to build good decks. And your nasal passages were already destroyed. Cause they smell
>>57009296That's a irrelevant because your gameplan already relies on Venusaur EX never dying.
I went from like 85 likes to 320 since reset.The power of premium?
>>57009322>Cause they smellWait the cards smell or the players? >inb4 both
You guys getting the Premium Pass this month? I'm planning on getting the Free Trial
>>57009335>Wait the cards smell or the players?it's always the players.
>>57009335The cards. When you open a fresh pack it smells kind of like wet dog. Every. Time.
>>57009296But it's not JUST a wall, it also swings for 40/80 damage each turn. It easily puts you in a position where the bricked up Venusaur simply can't be killed by virtue of whittling down their entire bench if they're swapping out, or just dying because very few things survive turn 1 80 damage
>>57009323>>57009346that's at least the hope, but in practise this deck hasn't been doing that amazingly, unfortunately
>>57009353I've been on both sides of the deck and it's pretty solid, it's fragility comes from running 4 basics and a stage 3 line so sometimes you've got a single Exeggcute and lose. But when you don't get stuck in that specific position you can easily steal games.
>my opening hand: ONE basic, 2 potions, 1x speed, 1 Sabrina>opponent's opening hand: 2 basics, professor Oak, pokeballsWtf is this gay shit?! This has happened 3 fucking times in a row. I've not got a single Oak in the first 5 times as well. Fuck this game!
>>57009369The game has a forced 50% winrate system in opening hands. Lose 2 or 3 times in a row then watch your next 2 games have perfect hands.
>>57009369it's just rudimentary level statistics, my dear watson, no funny black box business going on here in this predatory gacha game!
>>57009305>this anon thinks Sharticuno performs about as well as Mewtwo. LolLmao evenI will say that Misty will probably need to be banned or changed at some point since it works with all water types. Currently Starmie is good and Sharticuno is mediocre, so a 2nd strong water type Pokemon could take this deck over the top.
>>57008747I have zero FA trainers or immersive cards and have been playing since day one..
I dont like rewards for playing are so shit, this is the worst f2p game I've played where if your lucky you might open two packs aday
>>57009375I hope this is bait kek
>>57009404vapreon is good better then art any good thing about art is it combos really well with dsl fish
>>57009404they either need to fix the flipping (none of this 9 heads in a row bullshit), limit the amount of flips (4 is fine) or limit the mon it can be used one (misty's mons)if there's a mon that has open-ended damage depending on energy (for every two extra energy, this mon does 80 more damage etc) it'll be ridiculously broken.
>>57009416I think they should give 2 hourglasses for a win in competitive
Just pulled omastar, what goes well with it?
>>57009427then they limit that to 10 per day
>>57009427this but unironically
>>57009430>Just pulled omastar, what goes well with it?Omanyte
>>57008484
>>57009404>SharticunoDon’t be retarded. I think Starmie is the better card, but there’s a reason Articuno is so common (even in Starmie decks). Misty gives you free games at times. Is that more of a Misty problem? Yeah. But we’re still living in the world where Misty is unlimited and Articuno is the best early game abuser.
>>57009404I don't "think" so, it's a literal fact, anon.Look at tourneys, look at where Misty places on average, look where Mewtwo places on average, they're about the same. The only reason Mewtwo wins every other tourney is because 70% of entrants play that deck, so naturally one of them is likely to get a lucky streak. I'm tired of having to explain statistics to retards every time when they bring up Mewtwo winning tournaments as proof that it's the best deck, when in truth it isn't. Like, if a group of 10 goes out to buy a lottery ticket each, and then a group of 200 goes out to buy 200 lottery tickets, which group do you think is more likely to have a winner among them, despite individual tickets having the same odds?Please, /vp/, learn statistics. I'm tired of having to explain this to literal children who are so confident in their wrong fact stating.
Still working on my Gengar deck, starting to consider 1 less Sabrina and 2 Khan to make the water match ups a little less intense but I think this is the best you can make Mr. Purple for now.
>>57009454looks not only weak but also boring
>>57009466It is a lot stronger than it looks, you're right in that it isn't too complex or exciting.
>>57008995I still get tons of thanks when I'm afk grinding with articuno/misty degen
>3 Venusaur>2 Haunter>1 Onix>2 JiggyGive me one Greninja, please...
gonna restart again look for all the cards I need to make the decks I want then go from there
>>57009500k
>>57009445Starmie W one extra energy is usually a enough. Articuno really needs 2 free energy to steamroll
>>57009503anon its my 5th time now I have lost my mind but this time this will be the one
>>57009447Cope seethe. Look at day 2 performance and get gud
>Over 900 cards>Not a single VenasaurCome the fuck on
>>57009510>5th timeEven if it takes whole day, you should be resetting until you get what you want.
>>57009517thats the thing anon I dont know what I want
How do I beat this event venusaur pro deck with only ◇, ◇◇ and ◇◇◇ pokemon?I dont want to lost too many attempts
>>57009528Play a generic Blaine deck and rush it down with Ninetails before it can do anything.
>>57009528i run a blaine deck. 2x vulp 2x ninetails 2x ponyta 2x rapidash 1x magmar, 2x blaine and then standard supportive cards.i just let it auto battles and i've only lost 1 match on the highest difficulty in 15 wins.
>>57009512?
>>57009528blaine deck can auto battle with 90% win rate against it lol
>6 venu>3 gren>4 haunt>5 jiggs>7 onyxI lucked out
wow poliwrath's ability is dogshit
>>57009531>>57009533>>57009542Thanks
>>57009536Look at the archetypes win records on day 2 of events sarrInb4>T-thats just because Mewtwo wins every tournamentYes. Retard.
Is Mulligan even possible? I find it strange that it hasn't happened to me once yet.
>>57009522You want full art waifus. The rest is secondary.
Okay but how many fossil Mewtwos are winning tournaments?
>>57009560day 2 of what event, esl pajeet?
>>57009563no, you're guaranteed at least 1 basic in your opening hand
>>57009517ok I think I made a list of the chase cardsegg ex x2molres ex x2starmie ex x2vaporeonhypno x2wiggly x2kang x2sab x2everything else like gren can be gotten in events or spending card shit on>>57009566
>>57009563No, you are guaranteed 1 basic in starting hand.
>venasaur ex event >alt art regular venasaur reward>not even exall this shit is TRASH. they need to add ranked ladder/rewards NOW
>at least 1k dust for anything that isn't commons>you need to be friends for X period of time before trading>you can only trade for cards of the exact same rarity>you can only trade for cards of the same booster setyou rike
>>57009584i look like this and exclusively play m2ex
>>57009597none of those things with trading are confirmed though.right?
>>57009597there's a 0% chance there WON'T be some serious anti alt trading bullshit right
50 heals are so nice
SHEISLIVE
again, it's retarded to think that Mewtwo is the best deck, simply because it wins by pure overrepresentation. It literally has lower WR than Mistycuno, and if Mistycuno was 25% of all entrants across all tourneys, it would probably even win more often than Mewtwo. You people are seriously too fucking stupid to understand this. It literally won't enter your brain because all you see is Mewtwo winning tourneys and that's all the data that's relevant in your grade school brain.
>>57009606>there's a 0% chance there WON'T be some serious anti alt trading bullshit rightUnless trading is randomized, the chinese bots will take over the app and quality of matches will go down significantly.
>>57009528Losing only costs you your own time by the way. You don't consume event energy unless you win. You can even do the missions like the ones that require you to KO with a certain pokemon or put something to sleep, and then concede and it'll give you the mission completion without using the energy.
>>57008995Yeah that's what I suspectedThis is why I pretend to not have drawn the card I need when all of these buffoons fail to give me the fifth thanks of the day
>>57009604You need to prepare for worst case scenario, this is the first game of this kind to implement trading and there is no way they aren't going to make it as kikeish as humanly possible to try prevent russian/chinese botters from flooding the game.
>>57009616Retard.
>>57009634>You need to prepare for worst case scenario, this is the first game of this kind to implement trading and there is no way they aren't going to make it as kikeish as humanly possible to try prevent russian/chinese botters from flooding the game.yeah I'm betting it'll be random rarity for rarity and you can recieve cards you already have.so it'll be like wonderpick, but worse because you're losing actually valuable cards in an attempt to get something you need in return.the only way they could save that is if you can choose to get cards you don't have in return or wishlisted cards have a higher chance at being received than other cards.
>>57009637nice counter argument, ranjid
>>57009250>keep pulling on the Charizard pack>won't stop getting duplicates>if I get a rare card, it's yet another Charizard EX duplicateI have 4 Charizard EX and two of them were pulled in two days in a row. I might switch back to Pikachu since today's Wonder Pick finally gave me my first Starmie EX.
>immersive mewtwo exI DON'T NEED 4 MEWTWOS, JUST GIVE ME A FUCKING DITTO.I pulled 15 fucking packs, imagine paying money for this trash.
4 more cards (FA Brock, FA Misty, Gold Charizard, Gold Mewtwo) i hope the trade function is not shit (and yes 23 accounts)
>>57009616nigga its "over represented" because the only deck it insta scoops against is arbok/weezing. it'll win against every thing else. mosty and articuno would never reach that winrate because its a meme deck that loses due to a single tails
>>57009666>>57009672I've been pulling pikachu decks exclusively and aside from a couple of final evolutions I haven't pulled ex's or full arts in weeks. let alone any cards needed for the pika/zapdos deckI've been saving my hourglasses for the upcoming mini set and I absolutely think the game takes away rares if you have too many hourglasses.
>>57009673are you adding those accounts as friends to your main to try and wonderpick them also? youve gotta double dip to be efficient
>>57009525>Go Away Mew2>buys the pass for the exclusive cardYou only have yourself to blame.
>>57009684not work. i open with a new account 20-30 booster and wonderpick take random one pack.
>>57009620how? most people playing online already have a good meta deck, I was running into non-stop mewtwo and starmie+articuno decks since week 2. The only thing that'll happen is you'll start seeing way more people with flaired cards and full arts
Finally got my guy
>>57009666>>57009672Man, if only there was a system that allowed users to break down cards into materials and use said materials to create the specific cards they want...
>>57009666The only pulls that really make me seethe at this point are those that have cards common between the packs. I’m gunning for the last couple of Kanto mon needed for Mew, so it’s really fucking annoying to see 2 diamond shitters like Slowbro taking up the rare slots. Worst part is that I’ve yet to pull some of the M2 exclusive commons. Recently opened a pack that had 4/5 common set cards (all useless dupes) and my third copy of a M2 exclusive single diamond.
I know I'm missing Venusaur and Mew, but what's the third promo card I'm missing?
>>57009676bro how are you too retarded to understand that mewtwo is JUST AS VOLATILE AS IT RELIES ON PULLING A 3 EVOwhy do you think it has 51% wr and not 70%? fucking fucktardholy shit Pokémon fans are IDIOTS
>>57009710Mew isn't a promo card
I've failed a wonder pick on the same ex for the 8th time now I just don't know why I keep playing
>>57009713It isn't? My bad. Then what are the two promo cards I'm missing?
>>57009696>how?because then you'll see sites and ads about how you can pay cash money for specific cards.>pay chinese $x>get info on who to trade and when>trade trash for the card you paid forthere'll be thousands of accounts who's sole purpose is to collect rare cards, trade rare cards for money, delete account, start over.
>>57009665>>57009712Retard.
>>57009710Touch the empty spaces, anon
>>57009710Venusaur is 18

>>57009712you do not know how to play tcgs or how match ups work
>>5700971023 and 24 are the alternative Bulbasaur and Magnemite which can't yet be obtained
>>57009715I recently did a wonder pick that had 4 cards I didn't have. I picked the single dupe.>>57009735>>57009737Thanks, glad I didn't miss any yet.

>>57009747It's dumb that battle flair doesn't show up in these displays. It should show when you first open it up or tap on it.

>>57009797I need those stiletos over me
Articuks, Zapdipshits, and Moltrannies need their legs broke. Absolutely ignorant cards with 0 downside.
>>57009182You're three cards away from the deck everyone's been beating up twice at day with >90% winrates and you have zero copies of the card that's actually giving people trouble.
>>57009849isn't that like every basic

>>57009677I finally got 120 hourglasses two days ago but I decided to save them since we're getting the mini pack soon.
>Mistyjust make it so anything misty places energy on cannot attack for that turn. Hell if you really wanna nerf the card hard you can make using misty end your turn period but i wouldn’t do that, “end your turn” cards in the actual tcg were always bottom tier when i played in middle school
>>57009887>I finally got 120 hourglasses two days ago but I decided to save them since we're getting the mini pack soon.I'm sitting on 163 and it's killing me. I'm getting absolutely no pulls from my free packs or wonder trades.
>>57009891>just make it so anything misty places energy on cannot attack for that turn.Limit it to 4 flips. or leave flips unlimited but limit it to misty mons. or and here's an idea...fix the flip mechanics so it's more natural.no way someone IRL is flipping 9 heads in a row.
You could save so many hours glasses to the point where you can open 80 packs and that would still not be enough for a ex card. Im just throwing that out there guys. Also i want sabrina to bounce on my cock
CAW!
>>57009904Part of the reason why misty is so nuts is because it works on any mon. Regardless i think the solution of making it so the pokemon cant attack for the turn fixes the turn 2 articuno shit.
>>57009918Better luck next time.

>got 2 immersive Charizard's before one Kanga Holy fuck I hate 3 diamond cards
Gimme more ideas for greninja. I already got Tentacruel and Weezing brews.Weezing needs dark but only one, and Cruel is more consistent, but the curve to activate cruel with 2 energy can be slower.What do you guys got?
>>57010116Frosmoth or Dragonite.
>>57010116pincurchin
>>57010131>Dragonite>Doubling your stage 2s in your deckWhat the fuck you on about?
>>57010140It's not much different from a standard Dragonite deck but if you happen to get Greninja online he can make it more likely for Draco Meteor to end the game. And if you're bricked out of the Dragonite line the Greninja line can tolerate one lightning energy.
>>57010116Promo Jiggly + Wiggly ex works decently. Jiggly is essentially a cheaper pincurchin, and Wiggly can be another late game beater.
>>57010116sadly that's as well as you're going to do with greninja, weezing is the strongest dual color option (actually I can't rule out exeggutor ex because I haven't tried it but it feels like it compares to weezing, except that if you roll water energy you're even more crippled), and oncolor/normal options don't have the required staying power. if you're thinking about trying wigglytuff, it's bad, you need a frontliner that's quick to deploy and 3 energy is just too slow. the hp is attractive but given that you're giving up on attacking, at that point might as well use snorlax for the -1 prize, -1 evolution stage and +10hp
>>57010076What the fuck is this font?If they can copy the art image they can apply the text png to it as well
The pikachu set is really cute. Have they datamined the next premium playmats yet? Unless, we get a trainer playmat, I might just buy this.
Seaking is irrelevant because Exeggutor EX exists.
>>57010159Just tried gyarados with greninja, did well against mewtwo and it's faster than dragonite.Greninja becomes an early beater, but when dos gets online it's low retreat cost makes my hurt bench still put in work.I'm gonna try some more matches.
>keep ripping daily zard packs looking for egggod>Get 4th immersive zardPoetic cinema.Anyways is it worth it to run just one copy of Aerodactyl because that's all I got
farfetch rush is underrated
>>57008995I thank only those that did not use any EX mons.I'm guessing meta troons would do the opposite.
>>57010179Given that we got the other two genetic apex cover mons, you can expect Charizard next. Just don't buy the full set. Like you don't need the binder or whatever, just get the coin and sleeves and save for the next ones. Maybe the playmat if you really like it.
>>57010194It's good, but hopefully you're getting your bench mons up and running since 60hp folds to decent stage 1s. If you're not afraid of giving your opp a pity point while building a second mon up it's good.
>>57010056>>57010089>people who literally do not understand how the world works pretending that they understand how the world worksVery sad, very naive.
>>57010192you're right that greninja has the potential of being an early beater, its optimal curve going first is amazing in fact, but you just cannot rely on a stage2 to cover your ass while you setup another pokemon in the bench, which is why I say that greninja wants to pair with frontliners and not with setup pokemons
It would take you 84 days of accruing your 5 daily shop tokens to fully clear out the monthly refreshing hourglasses, how is that fair?How else are you supposed to generate shop tokens outside of fucking thanks, I want to max my hourglass revenue >:~(
>>57010196I see some complaints on FacebookNon ex queues could be a future.
>>57010217You have been doing event achievements right?

I converted this video :)
>>57010089My phone number has been compromised because some retarded bimbo is too stupid to type her own phone number and keeps using mine everywhere, probably because it's similar.
When are we getting the new packs? I want to roll so badly but I only have three 10rolls and I'm f2p.
>>57010018>>57010012You only need debit for the trial
>>57010230Yeah, the amount of thanks, both from battle and from displays, has greatly decreased for me as soon as this event started,
>>57010227Is it a 100% chance of dropping a shop ticket at expert? Because that's still only like 30~shop tokens, plus the 4 you'll get from first time rewards
>>57010243That's just further proof that anon is underage.
>>57010241 https://youtu.be/Kh0Y2hVe_bw?t=11>>57010246Less than 100%. You can expect to get around 25 tickets over the course of the event if you don't spend event glass.
>kill the opponents mewtwo and prevent a sweep>he brings out anothergard needs to be aborted
>>57010271>gard needs to be abortedYou were supposed to ask Sabrina to do that.
>>57010265Yeah that's fair and I guess the bulbamite event will also net you a fair amount of shop tickets. My goal is to have the 420tickets needed to empty the monthly hour glasses in 30 days, we'll see how it goes
>play a couple matches in a row, then go to check inbox, usually on a homebrew or rogue meta list>always have a ton of thanks from the people I play>mfw I know people enjoy playing against me and the decks I playIt's a simple pleasure
>usually play Mewtwo EX>usually get a thanksI don't know what you guys are even doing to earn no thanks. I'm convinced it's a shitpost.
This retarded game needs to fox it to where I don't draw 6 water energies in a row when I just need literally 1 dark energy to win. It's bad enough my draws are shit and all my pokemon cards are at the bottom of the fucking deck 9/10 times. Faggot ass Greninja, but I draw two sabrinas and two x-speeds back to back TWICE because they red carded the first time.
>>57010294Because meta is thanking meta. Read the thread, it's being proven. Pocket fags here are experimenting or using what they got and not getting thanks. I'm still testing my greninja and gyarados deck and I notice I'm not getting thanked every game. The games have been close. So meta faggotry is definitely at play
>Want to complete my Mewtwo Deck but I'm still missing three cards>Have around 530 craft points>If i get the Free Trial Pass I'll get one Mewtwo >Can later use craft points for Mewtwo EX and Kirilia but i plan on keep opening Mewtwo packs until the new set comes. I might pull the cards i need thus meaning i wasted my craft points. But i don't want to wait that long and use the Mewtwo Deck asapHmm decisions decisions
>>57010324There are greentexts on both ends, anon. Maybe you guys are just faggots if you're not getting thanks.
you know, Mewtwo players are faggots but what about fire decks? There is nothing more annoying than>MOLTRES>5 ENERGY IN 2 TURNSlike what the fuck is this garbage, the only flaw with that deck is you might get unlucky and not pull the zard/arcanine evo in time. Even then the decks are starting to outperform electric since they are just mixing evo lines in one deck increasing the chances. It's so fucking boring, 3 coin flips for a 1 energy ability is fucking retarded, i'm shocked no one complains about moltres.
>>57010193your odds of getting any fossilmon up and running are always questionable because you can't search fossils with pokeball so it's fine to just have one.
>>57010340without moltres, charizard would be pretty underwhelming and arcanine can get going pretty easily with or without moltres. it does struggle against decks that attack early and sometimes arbok or sabrina can fuck you late game but it is very consistent besides that. with how energy gain works, unless they get powercrept, pokemon like moltres and gardevoir are probably going to be meta staples for a long time.
>>57010265>youtube linksummarize it or gtfo
>>57010326you won't be able to use pack points on the other packs iirc so you're better off just getting what you need now and when the mini set drops you can just pull from that instead
>>57010374It's the last 3 seconds of a 14 second clip. It took you longer to fill out your captcha than it would have taken to watch it.
>>57010340Ummmm its fine because...its an EX so you'll get 2 points for killing it! (basic with 140 HP and 2 retreat cost btw)But like >>57010369 says, no one complains because its all the other part of fire that have weaknesses (like relying on stage 2 cards). But that also demonstrates that moltres really is a stupid card. Charizard can be replaced by anything in the future, he's just the thing that moltres ramps up. Moltres will not be replaced though, its the core component of the deck. Charizard does not win without it.
>>57010385>captchaNot required this time aroundSummarize those three seconds, im not leaving this site
>>57010396A narrator tells us what birds are.
>>57010340I think it will equal out in time as other elements get their own energy generator cards, but moltres is pretty obnoxious atm. Fixed coin flips are mostly better than meme "flip coins until tails" AKA Misty
>>57010399Ah, of courseHo-Oh and Lugia
>>57010401>I think it will equal out in time as other elements get their own energy generator cardsIt could get worse though. Imagine if Mewtwo was fire type. If a card like that ever comes out for fire, fire would be completely untouchable. Fire's only weakness is that its beaters have to rely on evolutions.
>VenuEX bot had me dead to rights>It threw the entire match at the last second because it got cocky
>>57010406>It could get worse thoughIt's kinda a given in card games as they go on though, we're in a relatively vanilla environment being here at game launch.Later on when they start slapping more abilities, more consistent searchers and faster energy generation on everything, this current meta will feel like a dream.
>>57009209I wishlisted weezing and then wonder-picked two of them in three attempts.make of that what you will
>>57010396>phoneposter demanding human rightsNo.
>cant pull gardUh oh mewtwo bros whats he gonna do
lol!!!
>Opponent manages to get Gengar EX up on their bench with three energies against my Blaine deck>Oh shit, I'm at 2 points but I'm probably going to lose here since I can't use Blaine or Sabrina it out if he retreats his Jynx for Gengar and I haven't drawn Ninetales yet>He does not retreat his 10 HP Jynx>He uses Jynx to kill Rapidash instead>Kill his Jynx with Ponyta and winevidently anyone who runs off-meta has profound mental retardation
>>57010340zard/arcaninelol you play bane nine and rapeadash not those shitters
>>57010420I'm just comparing it to other things currently in the game. Like Gardevoir, which only has the advantage of working from the bench. It isn't a basic and cant tank the way moltres can. Gardevoir can be powercrept pretty easy, but its really hard to powercreep moltres without doing something really obscene. moltres already checks all the boxes, so to speak.The only really good comparison is misty, but misty at least comes with the downside of small penis humiliation whenever you flip tails.
>>57010401The thing is 3 coin flips even out, even with the shittiest luck my arcanine and zard get the energy they need to win.
whats a funny idea for a singleton deck
>>57010454Fossils lol
>>57010458I have a omastar deck and it's not bad.
>>57010458i still dont have kabuto...
>>57010458omastar is good, kabutops is not. 50 hp back for each attack is godlike, doing only 50 damage per attack is not.
>>57010465Kabutops is a scrub deck killerMeta decks with their OHKO attacks roll over Kabutops but against other weaker decks it feasts like crazy
>>57010474>over-costed wonder pickThis makes me emit the big OOF.
>>57010482Gardevoir is harder to get than an EX.
>>57010480oh yeah decks that don't have monster 100+ damage attacks lose automatically, the rest don't give a shit abut kabutops.
>>57010490I'm aware, but for 36 wonder hours you can pick an offer with two EX or FA cards in it.If you're chasing the Gardevoir you could have spend 24 wonder hours trying to pick it.
whats up with most stage 1 or 2 non-ex pokemon being so awful? Like if they don't have an ability, why can't they be a bit strong? TCG doesn't need every card to be good but there's just some worthless shit like baby machamp, baby venu, etc
>>57010512I wanted either or. That's why I picked it. If they were separate I'd have picked neither.
>>570105131) Most cards in any given card set for any TCG are dogshit2) Most units in any given gacha game are dogshit
water vs pikachu is unwinnable
Just experienced peak Mewtwo faggotry for the first time, that was pretty neat. Daiquan if you're here I respect you
>>57010542I find it extremely funny that they gave water Tentacruel, which is an insanely overstatted card, and it still just gets oneshot by Pikachu.
>>57010480It does pretty well against Pikachu if you can get it out, since weakness means it heals 60 per attack and Pikachu can only hit for 90 (you do have to watch out for the Raichu variant, though). It's only really Mewtwo and Moltres decks that destroy it. It struggles against Misty, too.
I love the Surge deck. It's so fun when you curve out perfectly and get to swing in with Electabuzz on t2 going first, or Raichu on t3.
>>57010480People have the wrong idea of kabuto tops, he's a stage 2 giga tank not a carry, against most of pokemon not hitting for 100 he just won't die, you need a sweeper to back him up against the one shotters
>>57010572i want to make one, can you share what you have?
>>57010581Well I'm just running this but I'm sure there's a better build.
>>57010587thank you
>>57010571>heals 6070, no?
>>57010587Electabuzz is so bad that shit needs more than 70hp
Greninja with the golduck is solid. maybe slot a kanga or something, but opening with psyduck and sapping supporters is pretty fun.
mewtwo is the strongest deck, why do people say pikashit is better when it hasnt been in the finals in the past 3 weeks
>>57010587Yes.
>>57010616Oudated meta knowledge. Just like how they bitch about Pikachu Mewtwo being overused, but Charizard-Arcanine has been doing just as well in tournaments lately.
>>57010616>mewtwo is the strongest deck, why do people say pikashit is better when it hasnt been in the finals in the past 3 weeksPikachu Ex is faster than Mewtwo because Mewtwo relies on 1-2 Gardevoir's to replenish it's energy.Pikachu ex can get out in 2 turns. Mewtwo Ex is minimum 3 turns.
>>57010623so?
>>57010616Because once people fixate on something, it sticks. Same reason people still think Haymaker was Hitmonchan/Scyther/Electabuzz, when Electabuzz was swapped out for Promo Mewtwo a few months later.
>>57010624>so?the quicker you get your meta out the quicker you can damage and knock out mon. mewtwo/charizard is stall and once you get out your meta mon yes you can win easier but pikachu gets out quicker.but we're arguing semantics because those 3 decks are the 3 best decks in the game right now.
>>57010571>It does pretty well against Pikachu if you can get it outNot really because Zapdos have lightning weakness, it takes too long to burn through it before the pikachu player sets up their bench.Against the really shitty players that treat pikachu EX as a early beater like exeggutor EX however, there's a slim fighting chance.
>Against the really shitty playersMercifully, that's most of them.
>>57010542do any waters have more than 110 hp?
>>57010653The one and only
>>57010639>Against the really shitty players that treat pikachu EX as a early beater like exeggutor EX however, there's a slim fighting chance.My Exeggutor ex/Butterfree deck was my first good deck that got me into the expert decks. without it, I would've never gotten the hourgalsses to get the cards to build charizard/moltres.when it works and you can heal 110 damage a turn, that alone makes people rage quit.
>>57010542Good. If it wasn't for Pikachu, Starmie would be unstoppable.
>>57010656>doesnt oneshot pikachubetter hope you can bring it in on a KO
>>57010656Lapras ex
>>57010691https://pocket.limitlesstcg.com/cards/?q=type:water+hp>110
>>57008504>remove an evolution stage from one of your opponents pokemon and shuffle it into their deck>next turn, your opponents energy zone can't produce the same color of energy it did on their last turn. If they're running one color of energy, this means they don't get any energy.
>>57010727If someone did that to me I would simply produce a colorless energy. Double if I really feel like putting in the effort.
>>57010639Pika decks only out is triple coinflip or raichu surge, kabutotops very often just solo wins vs Pikachu, it's literally impossible for any other pika Mon to 1v1 or even 2v1 a kabutotops, especially with some well timed gios or pots
I had fun with my grapploct/hitmonlee vs arbok/nido but if this GAY GAME would kindly STOP PULLING THE CARD I NEEDED DEAD LAST FOR A DAMN CHANGE I would not get red carded and Sabrina'd in the same duel and would have won
How do you guys make stage 2 lines more consistent?I run the default two basic, two stage 1, two stage 2 from decklists online but I keep getting into scenarios where I have an extra stage 1 or stage 2 bricking my hand for a long time, like Charizards and two Haunters back to back.Should I be changing the line distribution? From 2-2-2 (basic-stage1-stage2) to something like 2-1-2 or 2-2-1?
>>570107612-2-2 is the your best chanceif you remove one card from the line, you will find a harder time finding a basic, stage 1, or stage 2 card respectivelyalthought it's probably easier to find a basic card since pokeball cards existwe really needed a greatball card on launch
Event Battles should give EXP. They aren't spammable without outright whaling, and you're otherwise limited to one battle every 12 hours. It's fair to have them give EXP.
>hitmonlee and zebstrika deal a fixed 30 dmg to pokemon who are weak to themIs it what they call actual mental retardation?
>>57010761Some decks run 1-2-2 and rely on initial handsculpting and pokeball to assemble the piecesIt's a hit to consistency, but it's not a big hit and is lets you squeeze more stuff in your deckBut most decks aren't willing to do it because they do actually want the possibility of getting 2 copies of the stage 2 out
>>57010780Hitmonlee makes perfect sense. But can't Zebstrika get advantage if he targets the active pokemon?
>>57010761I like 1-2-2 if you want to play a stage 1, but a lot of decks I play and see only do the stage 2 line and 3 basicsThe latter is more about the stage 2, but if you have a good reason to use a stage 1 even if it hurts the consistency a little it's not bad
>>57010761the game doesn't have enough tutoring/draw power to reliably cut down on bricks just yet. just look at how running both ex and noex stage 1s is popular: you mathematically guarantee that you'll draw a brick, but it's still desirable just so that you make it more probable that you curve out, with the added benefit of choosing which evo to go for depending on the situation if you draw both
>>57010791>. just look at how running both ex and noexAh yeah that's a good point. >>57010761Most Gengar lists are running 2 Gengar EX and 1 Gengar. It's scuffed but it's 2-2-3.
How many accounts do you guys have? I thought about making a second one.
Just started this today. Is it even possible to win the against the Expert solo battle Venasaur deck for the event with the starter Sandslash deck? I don't wanna waste my rental decks.
One (1).
FIX MISTY
>>57010803rental decks are only useful in the short phase of the game you're in, the start, so using them now is the opposite of wasting them
>>57010803Sometimes the bot bricks. But the only thing in your deck that can actually capitalize on that is Marowak EX so you'd be best off cutting everything except the Cubones and Marowak to make it less likely that you brick when the bot bricks.>>57010812He could also sit on them forever.
>>57010803Solo battles are literally the only thing rental decks are good for.
>>57010803You'll probably need something else like dugtrio, kabutops, marowak ex or machamp ex
>>57010821His starter deck has a Marowak EX.
>>57010542Your Misties?
>>57010803nah, just use themyou'll build better decks in no time
>>57010116I've been using 1x Greninja 2x Arbok 1x Pidgeot since the first event. If you don't get cucked on energy its pretty funny
>>57010835unless you get heads your first 2 turns it doesnt matter
>already out of pack hourglasses in the shopIt’s over
>>57010856how?
>build water deck>somehow next 10 games are vs water decksuhhh is this bugged
>>57010866I used my trans tickets to buy them…
Fresh baked bread when?
>play lapras (normal) turn one>play Misty>4 heads>one-shot opponent's non-EX mon>laugh>lose the next 9 timeseasy come easy go
>>57010891We're on page 8.
Does anyone else concede whenever you "win" the coin flip and have to go first?
>>57010937No, that's dumb.
>>57010937If you only care about winning and not the process, then might as well.
>>57010944>the process of losing literally every single time because your opponent gets two free hits
>>57009849Zapdos doesn't do anything retard
QRD on Eeveelutions?
>>57010966Jolteon *can* be alrightthe others are eh and not worth building a split energy deck around
Why did the devs make Water the indisputably strongest type?
>>57010979They didn't. Water is a jobber to make Pikachu look good.
>>57010954Even the best decks have like 70~% winrates, you play for their 30% loss.Unless you're straight up hard countered in element, then you're just a chud that only likes to play when things are stacked in your favor.
>>57010979is it?Greninja and the EXs are good but everything else is only okay and/or dependent on Misty
>>57010979It's midrange as hell and is hard counter by Pika
>>57010979I just wonder why they had the foresight to realize that giving any fighting type a free mana card was a bad idea but decided it was fine for water. Even if it's only 50% to gain any mana that's still a crazy boost in temp, especially when there are so few good trainer cards worth running.
>>57010990Starmie is the best card in the game, Gyarados's has a high damage move that has an additional benefit instead of a drawback like other high damage moves, Golduck does more damage than most other pokemon of its energy and evolution tier, Tentacruel is strong, Bruxish is also very strong, it's one of the types necessary for Dragonite. There's no other type that has all of these extraordinarily powerful pokemon. One can build multiple different viable decks around Water. >>57010983>>57010995>it's bad because the opponent MIGHT have Pikachu
Sup fags I’m basically addicted to this gacha shitTook a break from pogayman for many years after a painful ban on pokemmo Anyway I’m level 26 lolYou guys having fun? Might just kms soon though because I’m gay…
>>57011089>painful ban on pokemmoWhat did you did?
>>57011100Shit talked the devs and some guy tried to doxx me. I used to make the general threads here for years because I’m a tremendous faglord
>>57011110>Shit talked the devsSounds like the deserved it and that they are the faggots.
>>57011122Yeah and I shilled for them for years before the game was ever popular. I played for over 10 years and my account was worth like 10000 dollars lol.Now I don’t care much but haven’t played much Pokemon sinxe
>>57011089>>57011110>>57011140basedchad
premium pass should be TWO extra packs a day and a free wonder pick each day as well and then I would buy it
>>57011203Premium Pass should be a pack with a guaranteed full art and guaranteed wonder pick, I still wouldn't buy it.
>>57011203It's already insane value, what you're suggesting is 60 packs and 30 wonder picks for 10 dollars, which would be fucking amazing, but would also be fucking absurd.
>>57010618Yeah that aint a surge deck, go away
>>57011203Granted, but it now costs 2.05 times more.Premium pack sadly is nothing more than a discount on the same amount of packs but opened immediately
>>57011276Why would it be absurd? They're digital cards. It's 10 bucks for literally nothing, PNGs.
Can't wait for trading, I need to exchange my mistys for sabrinas so I can have her flaired with the little hearts.Also PLEASE pikachu packs give me the remaining three diamond cards, I need omastar, magneton and blastoise (can be EX though)
>>57011279Are you retarded? I'm not that guy, but that variation of the deck is good. You have the same Pika EX and Zapdos EX shell, you have the same Pincurchin that some lists run, and Raichu/Surge is a late game answer that hopefully you don't need, but that you do have to fall back on because Raichu's 140 is more reliable that Zapdos flips.
>>57011291In his defense, the physical cards are almost unanimously worthless too.
>>57011276These packs have absurdly low rates. 10 dollars is also twice the price of what this equivalent deal costs in other gacha games. It's normally 5 dollars.
>>57011241Broke ass nigga but I bet you are fat a as fuck too and can afford $45 in McDonald’s lolEat less fatty
>you don't know what flairs are available if your card isn't a star or higher>you have to buy useless flairs if your card isn't a star or higher
>>57011319Cry harder faggg dis shit is pokemon ok???? Pay the premium or play your gay loli collector pedo shit instead
>>57011331brown
>>57011276>It's already insane value,Relative to what? Arbitrary prices set by the same company? They want like $7 for 2 pulls but at the same time they give everyone 2 free pulls a day.>Oh what a great deal F2P is. DeNA is practically losing money! - some fucking retard2 pulls are not worth $7.

>>57008504
>>57011340The flair system is so fucking stupid. I hope whales don't pull for the flair system and that it's just some show off shit for after they already got everything else. What even can the trade system be though? If you let people trade, it starts denying whales of their inalienable right to flair shit. How is DeNA gonna spin trading so that it makes them money and does not actually give players what they want? It can't lose them money. If it's legit trading, that would lose DeNA money because people would just trade for what they need that they can't get even after pulling the same pack for a month straight.
>>57011356That does blow ass but you can still mostly see what they are.>>57011340A useful detail on this: your flair route (A, B, or C) is account specific, not card specific.If you look at the order of the items in the flair shop for one of your full arts you can determine your route without grinding up any cards.
>>57011382>"flair routes" are RNG based on your accountWhat in the absolute fuck
>>57011392Yeah IKR. From the way the system was initially described I thought it would be completely random for each card.
>>57011337Then don’t pay fattyLiterally just don’t eat your 4x McRibs todayNot that hard fatfuck
Its insane how you can save so many hour glasses and 80 opened packs still isnt enough for a ex card. Dont get me fucking started on the full art for trainers, 1250 for a sabrina delusional
>>57011446>Dont get me fucking started on the full art for trainers,I've done 76 pulls on my account so far and I have pulled zero supporters. Not one. And I don't just mean full art; I have never pulled a 2-diamond trainer.I have 12 gym leader cards in my collection and every single one of them came from wonder pick.
>>57011446Seethe harder fag. You will eventually have every fucking card lol. Stop crying lol
>>57011474>You will eventually have every fucking card lol.Immabereelwhichu when they add more sets and 50-70% of my wonder pick offers are shit I for sure don't care about it's going to get really hard to make decks come together.
>>57011446Yeah, the crafting rates are criminal.Like are you serious? 100 Packs to craft ONE(1(UNO(SINGULAR))) EX card?It basically makes it so that, unless you're a whale, you're basically only ever going to have enough PP to craft 1, 2 and 3 diamond cards for finishing your deck. Everything else is too high-costed to be viable to craft as a free player of even as a low-spend player.
>>57011482>, the crafting rates are criminal.See >>57009873The mechanic isn't present to improve the game. It's present out of legal obligation.
>>57011481Next set isn’t for like 2 months. So you will have like 80 packs in that time to get your gay card as wel as wonderpicks. Tbh they made this shit too easy to f2p nigs. You can easily get every card the games been out one month lol
>>57011446buy an account with the FA cards
>>57011474>You will eventually have every fucking cardThis is objectively false for people who aren't spending money.You get 2 packs a day. If the gap between new major sets is 3 months (which seems to be the case), that is 180 packs total per each major set release.If you add the daily pack hourglasses, store hourglasses and other sources, this increases to about 215 packs.IF YOU ARE EXTREMELY LUCKY, 215 packs is enough to maybe complete 2 out of the 3 packs included in the base set. If we assume new major sets will be the same size as the base set, then even in the best possible case, you will be able to obtain only 2/3rds of all the cards in the game.That said, this is an incredibly optimistic prediction, in reality, you are not likely to be lucky enough to completely collect 2/3 packs. You will much more likely be at around 1.5 AT BEST, so about half of the cards released in each set.
>>57011504Oh, and just to be clear, I am not including full art cards in this, I'm only talking about how much of a set you will be able to collect MECHANICALLY (in the sense of cards you can use for play).The amount of free packs on offer would not be enough to complete even 1 pack fully if we included collecting all of that pack's full and alternate arts due to their high rarity.
>>57011504Surely with the new set they'll set everyone back to level 1 and add lots of missions and solo battles to get so we'll get as many resources as they did when they were first baiting the hook to catch usSurely
Which one of you is this?Have people been able to run this game on emulators?How the fuck are people botting this game already lol?
>>57011518I know you're joking but anyone who's played a digital TCG before knows how the whole "Initial huge influx of free currency to hook people that then dries up completely by the time you've been playing long enough to get attached to the game" thing works.Because every digital TCG does that shit and no, they generally speaking don't ever give any more large influxes of currency after that.
>>57011504I’ve only opened 225 packs and I’m missing like 5 cards LOLKYS nerd niggerAND I have 2 months leftCope and seethe poorfag
>>57011530>Re-rolling on dozens of bot accounts over and over again so you can sell off the accounts with the best luckLmao.
>>57011540Master Duel honestly feels like the exception just because of how its crafting system works, and gems come by really often to the point where they hand them out like candy at times.
>>57011470You have to understand that out of the 5 cards, only 2 of those can get 2-Diamonds and above while the other 3 are guaranteed 1-Diamonds. If you are lacking on 2-Diamonds, that means you are pulling more of the higher rarity
>>57011530meyes, but 1.0.8 causes crashes and memleaks on emlatorsidk im chinese
>>57011540I distantly remember that Duel Links gradually add more free currency over time and it eventually got to be some much currency that you could buy a complete meta deck with it and when people's decks got banned or powercrept they'd roll a new account to get their next deckThat was some shit
>>57011540NTA, but TEPPEN is pretty manageable once you put a few months into it. I think Pocket's Pack Point system is gonna bite it back since you can only craft cards corresponding to the set you get the points from
>>57011555So how you doing it then chink bro?Army of smartphones?Asking for a fren
>>57011530yeah people have been playing it on bluestacks and mumu. I don't use them personally, but I've seen supposed bot scripts for this game.
>>57011298Are YOU retarded? We're talking about Lt. Surge, you fucking moron, not Pikachu ex. They're different archetypes.
>i'm not trying to win i'm trying to move energy from my retreated electrode my benched electrabuzz so i can maintain tempo once the zapdos i put forward (not ex) dies you'd have to be stupid not to see that
>>57011590Damn I heard it would never run on those. I wanted to make money when I heard it was coming out but then I just got addicted to the gacha shit instead… fml
>>57010802>How many accounts do you guys have? ITwo. One on my phone one on my tablet.
>>57011613If you were trying to win you'd be playing Mewtwo so idk what point you think you're trying to make.
>>57011621Mewtwo fears the rat.
>>57011597Only retards make a Surge deck without Pikachu EX.
>>57011628I really need you to stop replying to post chains you have not read.
>>57011628Isnt magneton+raichu based?(I haven’t pulled magneton)
>>57011615it runs fine with minor hiccups but the big problem currently is a memory leak that causes it to slowly use more and more ram. If you have a decent pc, you should be able to play at least one instance on bluestacks, and use the "trim memory" function on the sidebar from time to time to keep it from using up all your RAM
>>57010802I made an alt because my main at the time only had a shitty blastoise deck and I wanted something more meta. Now I have an alt with a charizard deck and nothing else and almost every other type of deck for my main. I 100% recommend it if your first account doesn't have any good cards
>>57010572>I love the Surge deck.>>57010581>i want to make one, can you share what you have?>>57010587Some retard posts a bad list, saying he's sure there's a better build>>57010618>anon posts a better build (Pikachu EX + Raichu/Surge)>>57011279>some piss baby says "wahh that's not Surge (even though the first decklist posted by the original anon already had a Pikachu EX in it)>>57011298Me, calling (You) a retard, because you're retarded.>>57011597(You) crying some more.>>57011628Me telling the truth (only retards make a Surge deck without Pikachu EX (even the first listed posted had 1 Pikachu EX, presumably because anon only has 1 Pikachu EX))>>57011631(You) pissing yourself some moreI read the reply chain, dumbass. You just don't like the fact that Surge decks are Pikachu EX variants and not their own decks.
I love it when /tcgp/ get into an autistic fight
>>57011621every Jewtwo player gets put into the gas chamber, no exceptions
>>57011633Magneton gargles cum. To get ANY value out of it you need 5 cards (Magnemite, Magneton, Lt. Surge, Voltorb/Pikachu, Electrode/Raichu) and you never want Magnemite or Magneton to be active. By the time the pieces come together the energy is irrelevant.
>>57011655Just pull all 5 in your starting hand, obviously.
>>57011655you could say the same thing about gardevoir though
>>57011655> By the time the pieces come together the energy is irrelevantabsolutely not, I've seen plenty of ex pika decks win because Raichu helped them clutch out one last kill. Pika EX+Raichu is a very meta deck that has lots of tournament placings for a reason
>>57011667mewtwo can still do 50 dmg and doesn't lose all his shit like the fat rat
>>57011667Retard. Gardevoir puts energy on the active Pokemon. Magneton needs a separate card to do that.
>>57011681magneton only needs 1 evo while gardevoir needs 2, so the effective cards needed is the same
>>57011670I'm not dissing Surge I'm dissing Magneton.
>>57011684and with magneton, you can only move energy twice. gardevoir you can generate a new one every single turn
>>57011684No, anon. Magneton + Surge is a 1 and done deal. You'd need a 2nd Surge to get a 2nd attack, and Raichu blows up all the energy anyway. Gardevoir can give Mewtwo 2 attacks very easily, or it can give 2 different Mewtwos an attack without needing another card.
The pack points system is a fucking joke, been opening packs for weeks and still can't get even a single good card
>>57011700>The pack points system is a fucking joke, been opening packs for weeks and still can't get even a single good cardonly whales are supposed to get enough pack points for the ultra rares. the rest of us have to deal with getting points for uncommons or commons that keep slipping us by.I used my pack points to get a charmeleon to finish my charizard/moltres deck.
>>57011685it's one and the same thing, there's no deck that runs surge without magneton, that would be pointless. if you think about it critically, magnemite+magneton+ lt surge is still only 3 cards to send "free" energy to your active pokemon just like gardevoir is 3 cards, the difference being that magneton can start amassing energy as a stage 1. The only downside is you realistically get to send the energy only once, maybe twice a game if your lucky. but when you only need to kill 3 pokemon or 2 EX's , that's more than enough
>>57011700It's more of a months/years thing. Like you save them up to the max, craft an entire deck from a new set, and then go back to saving.
>>57011717>open the same set for months/years to finally make a deck months/years after its relevancy>it might not even be allowed in the current event formatsGenius!
>>57011710>>57011717My only other experience with an online TCG is Master Duel and there it is much much easier to get the cards you want there, granted there's thousands of cards there as opposed to the 200+ we have here.
>>57011711>it's one and the same thing, there's no deck that runs surge without magnetonI mean, a Pikachu EX deck probably has a bench of Zapdos with 1 energy and a Pikachu with 2 energy. You don't NEED to run Magneton to get a late game finishing blow Raichu. https://www.pokemonmeta.com/top-decks/community-tournaments/%E6%8E%A8%E3%81%97%E3%83%9D%E3%82%B1%EF%BC%81(99-players)/4/pikachu-ex/%E3%81%AD%E3%81%93bot/TwU2E

2 weeks for miniset, if we get no datamines this would be my first time going in blind for a gachakinda crazywould be really kino too
How do you spend cash on this game without it feeling bad? I have the prenium pass but dont really see myself ever buying poke gold. I think even the 2 daily free packs do a good enough job at clearing out existing packs after a couple weeks. Whaling doesn’t seem like it would help with the missing EX cards or stage 1/stage 2 pokemon that people fail to get. Pocket points feel like damage control because you can buy 50 packs and thats like, only 250 points.
>>57011748If you put the mewtwo deck together it'll match you with pikachu players who kill you while you're setting up.
>>57011710I have been pulling Zard pack and I still don't have a single Frogadier. The good is I got the fourth copy of Zard EX, I guess?
>>57011730pls anon master duel is amazing any deck you wanna make from making the account and its yours
>>57011748take the brap pill
kabutos hard counters ex pikano easy way of getting it out hehe

>>57011761After I got my promo Greninjas I started pulling Charizard to get Froakie and Frogadier. I haven't seen them yet but I have pulled regular Greninjas.
>>57011769Yeah, but what are you going to put in the deck to be able to actually kill Mewtwo and Charizard and Starmie?
>>57011761me to no frogadier got a shitty full art ex zard I dont give a fuck about
>>57011771You've been playing since launch and you didn't farm Lapras?
>>57011752The only game I've spent shekels on is Duel Links because they actually have occasional good offers like $1-2 bucks for 3 packs + 1 guaranteed super/ultra rare card. Every other gacha game I've seen has ridiculous rates for their paid currency that isn't worth the price, including this game
>>57011752Pulling for pure packs is a bad feeling. Would've been better if pity was smaller for diamond card and above.If you really wanna feel "good", buy launch cosmetics and flex them on people several months later. There's no shortage of gardefags to show off to.
>>57011785You can't just go around posting this without evidence.
>>57011785what about the cases where it's in the same exact spot it started on
Lookin good
>>57011752you don't. There's nothing of value to buy in the store

>>57011806That's a you problem. You could have been refreshing your wonder pick offers more often.
Should I actually pay for the Premium pass when my trial ends? It seems like good value compared to whaling for gold.
>>57011822>>57011337
>>57011822Outside of the launch bundle, the premium is the best value you can have since it's pretty much 180 Pokegold for $10 over 30 days, but I'd only be picking Premium if I wanted to grab those Premium rewards

>>57011711You can definitely run Surge without Magneton. The thing that differentiates a Surge deck from a Pikachu ex deck with Surge in it is that Surge has a highroll aggro line where you get Magneton out early and get to swing in with Electabuzz or Electrode on turn 2 going first, or Raichu on turn 2 going second. That's what actually makes a deck a Surge deck. If you don't run Magneton, it's not a Surge deck, it's just a Pikachu deck that runs Raichu.
>>57011948Maybe you should accurately label your autism and call it a "Magneton" deck then, idiot. https://www.pokemonmeta.com/top-decks/community-tournaments/kwalifikacje-do-polish-pocket-cup-11-2024-(32-players)/2/pikachu-ex/meow/8KAB-Oh wait... it's still better with Pikachu EX.
