You just know
>>57035230There are a fixed number of slots for wonder pick. You have to manually refresh the slots by checking after offers expire. (I don't know how replacement works when you actually pick an offer, but I think it's still based on when it would have expired.) A new offer can expire in 0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, 2:30, 3:00, 3:30, or 4:00 (it's random).When you are given a new offer, it *might* be one of the offers from the event (with a 0:30 expiration). They take up slots just like normal offers.

Promo Mankey really does feel like a wet tissueMaybe I should just run regular Mankey instead

>>57035259The still image is less offensive, but the animated one causes actual physical disgust. There is something deeply unwholesome about it in a way that makes the lizard part of my brain want to crush it.
>>57035298If your opponent can hit 40 wait until Primeape to attack.
>>57035254Why do I keep getting matched with gooks and nips ?
>>57035304I like it.
>>57035315We are mortal enemies from now until one of us passes.
I think if they released rules to play TCG Pocket with real cards I’d play it. This is pretty fun, though I imagine they’d have to release specific EX cards for the ruleset due to have crazy the regular TCG cards have gotten.
>>57035315I like it too.
>>57035315https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNN3EhxKvMYI thought it was a fan animation but it's from the official Pokemon YT channel
They'll kill billions...
>>57035339pockets rules are just based off of the rules from "my first battle". a tcg product made for kids
>>57035346I thought it was a vtuber at first, too. Kinda surprising tbqh.
>>57035259kemono gf
I did the lean Rapidash/Ninetales deck with Blaine for the Venusaur challenge, but I didn't expect it to be so strong. It's winning me tons of online matches too. Being able to do 120 damage in 2 or 3 turns is devastating to anyone that relies on EX walls.
>>57035351>no lopunnypass
>>57035254We should consider putting NOEX and THANKS in the battle passwords?
>>57035339Probably won't happen since yugioh tried to capitalize off duel links too with speed duels and that flopped
>>57035383We shouldn't frame directions as questions?But to "answer" your "question", no. We shouldn't. Those are r/PTCGP's passwords. That section is for our passwords.
>>57035397So? We can take them. Why shouldn't we?
>>57035406You shouldn't want to associate with the cretins that post on reddit
>>57035406>/vp/ battle passwords to battle with other anonsThose passwords are for battling redditors. It's not in the spirit of the section. Snipe the new thread at page 10 if you want to smear poop on the OP, but don't hand us your poop and ask us to smear it for you.
Finally got my husband last night, so I'm done with the Mewtwo packs. Should I be pulling on Pikachu or Charizard now?
>>57035415>Snipe the new thread at page 10Challenge accepted.
>>57035434nice pull. >Should I be pulling on Pikachu or Charizard now?it depends on what you're going for
No idea what I'm doing.
>>57035434Charizard first since there are more decks you can get and more cards that could have future use imo
>>57035466First off. Why does kirlia have energy on it. Second get your mewtwo ex some energy. Koga your weezing.
>>57035499>First off. Why does kirlia have energy on it.Had no Mewtwo yet. He came in late.
>A1a will be 76 cards>we have 7/72 gen6 monThe 65 missing mons + 2 fossils + 8 gym leaders + one other card
>finally got 3rd greniggajust one moreI don't care for the fancier flairs the sparkle is enough to make the card do the pop up on screen effect when it gets played
>>57035189I don't think it'll be in the miniset and probably won't be in the next booster but considering we already have magmar and electabuzz, I think it would only make sense that they eventually add rhypherior, magmortar, and electivire. Electabuzz and magmar already have support cards for them, so much like onix is probably getting steelix, I can see those three getting their Evo's down the line.
>>57035351Jesus Christ Pokemon cards have gotten strong. At first I thought you need a stage 2 and stage 1 to get this out, but nope kek
>>57035375Yeah I've been playing it a lot and it's surprisingly tier 1.5. I'd still play Mewtwo if I had to, but I'd say Blaine is better than Pika and similar in strength to zard kek
>>57035555We know there will be more fossils?
>>57035573It's worth 3 prizes.
>>57035590>searches for 2 energy, feeds your benched pokemon and can hit for 200 damage while forcing your opponent to shuffle their handif you lose with that card you deserve to lose the game. thank fuck they killed fairy typing, I don't wanna see that shit in pocket.
>>57035589Because putting Tyrunt and Amaura in without Jaw Fossil and Sail Fossil would be silly.
>>57035351Does weakness play a big role in the tcg and big health pools, I feel like they had to scale health so much because everything can just get one shot
>>57035609They scaled health so much because Greninja was a menace. The x2 weaknesses have always been relevant but it didn't gain relevance in the land of big numbers. When they scaled the health up they also scaled the damage up.
>>57035388Because they added that disgusting speed duel logo to a bunch of old cards instead of going the MTG Commander way of letting players have fun with whatever they had laying around.
>>57035609it'll pop up in some games but things usually die in one turn so weakness isn't super relevant
>one of the randoms I added is ChineseNeat, now I can get Chinese rune cards whenever his WP shows up
>>57035615>scale health to account for one card they made that was a massive mistake and oversight>instead of just putting the card on a banlist like any other TCG that makes a mistake like that so they can reprint a new less broken unbanned version later
>>57035631pokemon only really bans cards when it completely stops one person from playing the game
>>57035631Because it has the added benefit of requiring players to migrate completely to the new cards to keep up with the power scaling. TCG designers are literal scumbags who have the same disposition as mafia loansharks.
>>57035641banning cards breaks decks and makes people have to rebuy new cards too
The only way to defeat Mewtwo and Pikachu is to bring back Rare Candy
>>57035641Yeah but they get angry about that and quit more often, power creeping them is slower and tricks them into sticking around longer.
>>57035662Rare candy will buff Mewtwo too
Instead of banning cards they should just make the existing ones less objectively shitty.
>>57035600Idk what the fuck those pokemon are, and I don't care to learn until they get a card. Do we know for sure they're included?
>>57035662the real way to defeat mewtwo is this arbok ex
>>57035676Further proof that Persian's discard effect shouldn't be a coinflip
Do we think Umbreon and Espeon will have the same kind of attacks as the first 3 eeveelutions?
/tcgp/, tilt packs after ripping or nah?https://poal.me/bu1odz
>>57035615>>57035631QRD on Greninja?
>>57035693I personally think if the effect wasn’t a coin flip it’d be in every deck
heh
>>57035674>Idk what the fuck those arehttps://www.serebii.net/pokemon/gen6pokemon.shtml>for sure they're included?No it's wild speculation.
Evos should have access to their previous stages' attacks
>>57035698I get disappointed more often than not either way so tilting is more of an involuntary action
>>57035637>bans cards when it completely stops one person from playing the game>opponent goes first>plops down sharticuno ex>plays misty>rolls 3 heads>knocks out your only basic>you just lost while getting completely stopped from playing the game but nothing is banned
>blastoise can do damage if you slop 5 every onto itmeanwhile charizard can still one shot you with quicker set up. Incredible.
>>57035723Quiet, you should just be begging for a new set to fix your problems
>>57035746That player's will was stronger than yours. Head to the mountains to strengthen your aura.
>>57035751Blastoise's only benefit is being able to attack with 2 energy. It only does 40 damage, but it's better than literally nothing.
auuuuuggghhh erika samaerika sama youre soaaauuughhhh hhaaa haaaaa haaaaaaaaa
>>57035746If Misty Sharticuno was a good deck instead of an unlikely-to-hit glass cannon, then yes. In fact, I predict eventually Misty will extremely busted in a tier 1 deck, but Sharticuno is just too weak when you flip tails.
>>57035746well pocket is dena, not tpc. who knows if they'll do their own thing or follow tpc's philosophy
>>57035713That was the Base Set Magnemite, wasn't it?
>>57035775No, Team Rocket.
>>57035775Its from the team rocket set
>>57035723just use relicanth
>>57035698What if I only sometimes tilt depending on how desperate I am?
Mawhile is so goddamn bad holy shit. There are basics you can shove onto a steel deck with more purpose like Meowth to draw cards or jigglypuff to rob people
>>57035698I always tilt to help lower my expectations.
>>57035813>20 damage attack>70 hp>energy removal is a coinflipit's tragic
"damn, i rolled two 2 Marowak EX's, im so lucky!"
>>57035698It helps with the shit packs so you can lower your expectations and be pleasantly surprised when you get a 1/2 star card you needed because you expect nothing
when will we get damage dealing misty cards for the absolute meme scenarios and rage concedes
>play beginner>every battle is against meta decks and level 20 players with 50 winsNice "matchmaking" you got there
>>57035841Japanese honor-u system-aru
>>57035834We've already got one. You've never seen it before in a battle because the attack requires 3 energy and it has 90 HP.
>>57035788This feels like the kind of card you put in a deck solely for it's ability.
>>57035859Porygon mentioned!
>>57035850Lickitung feels like the sort of basic that should have 100 HP and double energy costBut then again coinflipping is toxic bullshit so we can do with less of it
>>57035315How did she know there was an EX in the pack?
If I don't get a Venusaur promo card by the end of this event, I'm dropping this kusoge.
>>57035598But fairy is the best type.
>>57035315I feel like if you replaced the pokemon cards with shit like baseball cards the sheer ludicrousness of her jumping for joy over gambling would be more apparent
>>57035862porygon blows even with its ability
>>57035598TPC didnt kill fairy because of one OP cardThey killed it because they wanted a smaller type chart as its very difficult to balance card archetypesThis is why psychic got nerfed during the same time, by making every poison pokemon switch from psychic to Dark
>>57035870She titled the pack and saw the art popping out into the card frame.
What energy types and complimentary pokemon do I run for a ditto deck?
>>57035900No, she reacts before she even touches it.
why did the retard change the name again?
>>57035315>>57035900wish i had an anime gf like thissigh
>>57035903Oh. Well maybe the clips are out of order and it was her first pack. She knew it would be there because it was seeded. Or she got excited over Metapod. Bitches love Harden.
"oh my god jigglypuff is so cancer i hate jigglypuff"
>>57035916can you be paralyzed and confused at the same time like in the games?
>if you don’t lead kanga or some other wall in in NOEX and go second, Blaine Rapidash can instantly shut you down if they have all the pieces>for some reason, NOEX blaine deck players always stall out turns and never Thanks youWhy even play the fun meme game mode if you only play no-restrictions tiered decks anyways?
They should add Resistances back (but not to EXs).
>>57035927No, each status only lasted a turn
>>57035916I can't wait for this game to include confusion but make it separate from Asleep/Paralyzed, so you have to flip for sleep, then still be confused after recovering from it.
>>57035901Lightning and Water deck to target Pika, Misty and Dragonite.
>>57035916>>57035850For me, its licks go crazy
>>57035933Not exactly. Confusion persists between turns unless you retreat or clear the condition another way, and it does a check on attack to see if you attack or do 30 damage to yourself.
>>57035928Password matches don't even give experience so it's waste of everyone's time.
I GET IT
>>57035928>for some reason, NOEX blaine deck players always stall out turns and never Thanks youOur deck runs a stall card that relies on a coinflip. It's miserable to use, but it can rob wins occasionally so it trains us to stick around longer than we should.
>>57035939>"Fuck you and discard"
>>57035947>GogoatNice. I still haven't foud him. If you get one more you can build the Grass Lightning deck.
How do I delete an album?
>>57035943Its for fun, anon
Is it stupid?
>>57035939I would play this. Still more honest than misty
When are we getting new cards? I have 300 hour glasses (only 25 packs lmao) and using them on existing sets which ive mostly cleared out feels like a waste.
>>57035975I have enough coins for the cover just by getting so many 1 star duplicates. Saving for the coin.
>>57035723This card does.
>>57035975That's the only backdrop that fits multiple cards and it's also the best looking backdrop. Everything else there is stupid.
>>57035916The fact that people cry about a card that does nothing at all but inflict a status and has only 50hp is hilarious.
>>57035927In the TCG, Asleep/Confused/Paralyzed are mutually exclusive, while poison and burn operate on separate rules. So you can be confused, burned, and paralyzed, but you can't be confused and paralyzed.
Put him in
How many side accounts do you anons have?
>>570360272 that i do dailies on but will drop as soon as trading is revealed to be shit
>>57035788Would this even be useful today for tcgp?
>>57036027None, sounds like a huge pain in the ass.
I have never successfully wonder picked from a double EX/full art pick, and I have saved my hourglasses to go for every one I see.
>>57036023>resolute >Has truanthuh?
>>57035903It makes a sound when you open the pack
>>57036032Would make going first hurt less with multi stage pokemon since you can immediately evolve on turn 3 and use the preevo's one energy attack while having the evo's higher hp. Right now you'd have to choose between attacking or evolving to have more HP to survive the next turn
>>57035991>90 HP stage 2>horrendous 4-cost RNG attackIf they fuck him over this bad in the johto set I will cry. He's one of my favorite pokemon
>>57036053I'm betting Kingdra will be a dragon type and use both water and lightning energy, just like his most recent physical TCG dragon-type cards.
>>57036032Its probably useful to early evolve stuff and still be able to attack. Off the top of my head>greninja gets access to frogadiers attack which doesn't need water energy>wigglytuff can use the 1 energy sing atrack>venusaur and blastoise attacks with 1 less energy
>>57036043I've never even seen one to begin with. And I've literally only ever wonder picked a single EX in the entire time I've played.
>>57036053It will probably be more like the neo genesis one, I won several tournaments with it back in the day
>>57035967Yes, and playing unfun meta decks is pointless.
>>57036061I feel like this would kind of ruin the allure of EX Blastoise, Charizard and Venusaur who are notable FOR retaining the move from their Stage 1
>>57036032Dragonite would love being able to swing for 40/80 sitting there with 160HPEven the Eeveelutions would like it.>Go first>Eevee in active slot>Vaporeon in hand>Turn 2>Evolve>Play water energy>Attack for 20 instead of 0With every non-ex mon only having one attack in PTCGP (so far), it would be an essential tech in many stage 2 decks.
>>57036068if the miniset doesnt introduce at least one card with some interesting side effects or dual attacks on non-ex cards, im not holding out hope that they will ever come
3^ moltres is pathetic lol
>>57036084He's just like me...
>>57036053He's a stage 2, he's gonna suck.
>3 items in the event shop, that cost 9 total tickets to get all of them>the event missions give you 9 tickets total>there are still event tickets in free wonder picksdo extra tickets have any use?
>haven't had any good pulls for days nowJUST
>>57036095In week 2 they'll add a dumping ground for bonus tickets, you'll be able to convert your extras into up to 2000 stardust just like the Chansey/Meowth event.They'll also add the coin/playmat/sleeves from the current Venusaur event.But you'll still have worthless tickets left after that.
>>57036103This but also extended to wonder pulls.
>>57036077>Being able to Bite or Horn Attack with the Queen and KingI can only dream of such universal tech
>>57035975I find every background released so far to be tacky, mostly because I don't particularly care about the pokémon in them I guessThis neutral design would be cool to use but it's a symbol of braindead paypiggy so not really
How soon would we find out about the mini pack contents? Would it have to be all the way over at the reset when it finally drops on the 15th? Not sure how much in advance they deploy.
I've been playing Blaine and I added Farfetch'd over Magmar because Magmar is dogshit. A colorless Rapidash that doesn't work with Blaine but is a basic is exactly what the doctor ordered. It's amazing how many games I've won just with a raw farfetchd when my opponent stumbles.
>>57036122the moment the game gets big update ahead of it they will get the data to tell what's on it
>>57036095It's 31 tickets for all cosmetics(the missions give 31 tickets)20 tickets beyond that can be traded for dustEvent tickets beyond 51 are worthless
>>57036126I use the same deck and I pretty much have a 80% winrate or something, Farfetch'd is honestly amazing in this deck
>>57036126Also, has anyone noticed that these damage stats are not accurate? Maybe I'm retarded, but I imagine Farfetchd hit for a multiple of 40 damage kek. If the active Mon only has 10 HP, does it only count as 10 Dmg or something?
>>57035555>A1a will be 76 cardshasn't been said by the d*scord dataminers, so it's fanfic>>57036122We don't know, they never pushed any meaningful update, only bug fixes
>>57036126The 1 energy retreat cost is also a huge deal for the deck letting you pivot to a stage 1 ASAP.
>>57036126Farfetch'd is awesome and weirdly overtuned, and yet it does absolutely nothing to a mewtwo deck.
>>57036136Maybe he used a Giovanni
>>57036121I bought the sleeves from exchanging an immersive, it feels good to use it on top of no playmat, basic coin lol
>>57036144>it does absolutely nothing to a mewtwo deck.That's because Mewtwo is way more overtuned than Dux
>>57036132Post list. I've been winning A LOT with this and my secret MMR rating is likely very high BC I had my first 400 battles with Mewtwo at 75%+ win rate. If I couldn't play Mewtwo, I'd play Blaine in a tournament over Pika or Zard. Deck is just solid.My list :2 ponyta2 rapidash2 vulpix2 ninetails1 farfetchd2 pokeball2 professor research2 x speed2 sabrina2 Blaine1 Red CardI'm extremely happy with this build and wouldn't change a thing.
>>57036145Its definitely doing something weird because there's no Giovanni in my Blaine deck a FarfetchdMaybe it's just the remaining HP that counts idk.
>>57036153I'd drop the red card for a Giovanni.
>>57036153>playing blaine over pika in tournamentyou can have your fun deck but you need blaine to kill pika, while pika doesn't need other cards to kill ninetails. I'm not sure if blaine decks are even as consistent as other off meta like koga decks.
>>57036144Its honestly totally fine. The ideal Blaine game is almost always starting with farfetchd/ponyta active, vulpix bench. First energy goes to the active Mon to start hitting. Next energy goes to vulpix so its ready to go. I've had games where I hit meetwo ex or regular mewtwo 3 times a the bird before he dies.
>>57036159Nope. Red card is a mandatory 1 of in every deck, and it's way better the faster and more aggressive your deck is. I think it's a massive MASSIVE mistake to not include it.
>>57036165Not every deck, as you mentioned it favors strats where you want to land quick strikes and deal them a poor hand in turn. It is to try and keep momentum. Something like Venusaur is still slow enough for a red card to not be that good at all.
>>57036172If you lose to Venusaur playing Blaine it's your own fault.Otherwise, true.
This is fun.
Farfetch'd is a meme in Blaine deckjust bring more trainers
>>57036161Blaine makes its easier, but obviously you NEED a ninetails to race a pika. Usually the way games play out, you first active will be a beat-stick (horse or bird) and that will then hit pika before dying and then ninetails doesn't need the Blaine to win. If you cannot do that, then of course having the Blaine one shots them. I'd play Blaine over Pika in a tournament, no question.I've played a lot with both. I'm not confident I know how to best build Pika. I played it a LOT moving card numbers around.I came to the conclusion that Zapdos EX is extremely mediocre. Zebra is really good. Magnemite is terrible. Raichu is a card I keep adding and removing. Raichu can do some insane stuff, but it can also just literally do nothing often. Voltorb is really nice for consistency (basically like playing half an x speed more in the deck) and is your best beater if you don't draw a pika ex. I'm at this right now, but I'm not confident at all in this build like I am with my Blaine and Mewtwo lists.Current Pika list:2 Pika Ex2 Zebra2 big zebra2 voltorb2 electrode1 crapdos ex2 research2 pokeball2 x speed2 sabrina1 red card
>>57036185No, I mean that venusaur decks shouldn't be playing red card at all
>>57036165>top 1 deck instantly puts all it's pokemon on the board and doesn't need to evolve shit, so it rarely holds more than 3 cards at a timeyeah I dunno. against misty or erika decks your potentially flushing valuable support, but against decks that mostly run basics it's not very useful becaue those decks generally play their cards as soon as they get them so you won't have shit to red card
>>57036186Any deck that makes Pika players seethe is a good deck. Well done.
>>57036172At its core, red card is disruption that is explicitly targeting stage 2 Mon. Guard, Zard, etc. It also undoes a research, which obviously everyone plays 2 of. Just "countering" research is enough. Pro tip: I'll often NOT red card a 4 card hand when I'm on the play because I think it's more likely to be helpful to get a research from my opp before doing it. They can't evolve t1 so you're good on fighting the stage 2s too
>>57036198First of all, Mewtwo is the top deck objectively by any metric that matters (day 2 results and tournament wins)Secondly, red card is certainly at its worst against Pika, but it still trades for a research and is totally great.
>>57036206In my experience the most effective case of Red Card is unaware people that research and ball going first bloating their hand. They just blew their hand themselves.
>>57036189Giovanni is the definition of mediocre and I really just wanted a beatstick. The bird stays for now for me
>>57036213Those free wins are great, but even if an opponent is playing optimally, you'll get great value from red card. It is likely the most difficult card in the game to play perfectly with. You often have enough info mid game to know you should/shouldn't red card, but you gotta be paying attention to how the game played out and likely what's stuck in their hand.
>>57036217Gio is pure damage tier knowledge. It can be the difference between an extra attack and a point. It depends on the deck. Pikachu and Starmie breaking 100 walls is a great example.
>>57036212>mewtwo is the better deckbait used to be believable. someone who has please post the aggregate tournament win tier list that shows like 6 different pika decks with higher win rates over mewtwo/gard
>>57036223I like hand scope :)
>>57036223> It is likely the most difficult card in the game to play perfectly withThat's just because the number of situation where it's really useful is pretty small and even when you play it at the right moment since the decks are pretty small there is still a chance it will do nothing.
>>57036233What's the 100dmg threshold you're seeing? Usually the thresholds I'm seeing are 60, 120, 130, and 150. Gio doesn't really help with any of those, but Blain certainly does
>>57036240I can't support hand scope. Just pay more attention. Can't be throwing away cards for no value like that. Comboing with your 1 red card is just a dream that isn't even that good.
>>57036245Hand Scope will almost certainly be an ability on some random psychic monster at some point.And even then people won't use it.
>>57036236That faggot graph is for all tournaments, including small 1-day events. It's heavily misleading. Look at day two results and it's clear Mewtwo is tier 1, Pika and zard tier 2 (Blaine is also secretly tier two IMO), then you have tier 3 with the rest of decks like sharticuno, dragonite, weezingarbok
can't wait to goon so hard to nessa's bikini full art card
>>57036248
I'm so close to Mew. Mewtwo ex counts as mewtwo for getting Mew right? If so, I need Weedle, Beedrill, and omastar and I'm done, I believe.I got 1 misty full art, but I'd really like a second and 2 full art sabrina. I know Sabrina and Misty have the best chance of aging well as new sets release.
>>57036262Yes.
>>57036242I get a lot of good use out of Gio in my Blaine deck. But you have to use it proactively usually. You have to consider "ok but what if they evolve next turn and also use a potion, would using Gio now so I can Blaine next turn work?" and just go for it. Otherwise you'll probably hold it too long and clog your hand with Supporters.I wouldn't run more than 1 Gio, and am pro-Fetch'd. Either one is definitely better than like, potions though.
>>57036242NTA but off the top of my head, kanga and rapidash
Which one bros?
>>57036242arbok is at 100 hp
>>57036242Like I said it depends on the deck, I run a single Gio in Blaine. 40 extra damange isn't bad. For other decks is stuff like OHKO'ing arbok, decimanting kangashkhan. Pikachu gets to OHKO Greninja. Stuff like that.
>>57036271Fuck you all
>>57036281But that's the most valuable thing there.
>>57036242100 damage breakpoints aren't the only ones where it can matter. Like it also gets you KOs on 120 HPs like Pikachu EX if you Gio your Ponyta then switch in Ninetails next turn. Or Rapidash+Ninetails+Gio hitting 140 for Marowak EX.
>>57036286Oh yeah? We'll see if that's true 20 years from now when the never reprinted event Magnemite is worth 15 dollars on the black market. 3 dollars accounting for inflation.
>>57036264Yeah potion doesn't suit Blaine's aggressive approach. I'm extreme passionate in putting red card in.... literally every single deck I've taken seriously (mewtwo pika sharticuno and Blaine)
>already have 10 event shop tickets on day oneShould probably be able to exchange for most of the accessories at this rate
>>57036307It goes for 14 days and you need 31 tickets.
>>57036287Truth. Will consider this more since 120 is a common threshold bc Pika obv
>>57036287There's also a lot of thresholds where it gets you through a potion.
Living that Blaine life kek. Should he have just not attacked? I had to research into rapidash then he could survive and play primate kekNot many turn 1/2 (on the play) wins outside of Misty Sharticuno lucksack
>>57036258I said ability, not attack. Something free every turn, possibly locked to being your active mon.
>>57036323He shouldn't attack and neither should you
>>57036325Porygon EX or Porygon 2 will do it. Trust the plan.
>>57036307I myself have got the whole shop already
>>57036332same.One promo magnemite, still haven't seen promo Bulbasaur in a free pick. I'm sure it'll happen soon.2 wonder stamina for an alt art common 'Chansey Pick' is dumb.
>>57036332I'm super jelly. The coin isn't in my shop yet.
>have 2 prize points>opponent’s kanga has 40hp left and is poisoned, so just attacking it with wheezing means I win>sabrina it into the back instead>double evolve frogadiere into geninja and snipe it I crack myself up
>>57036323Almost no point in playing into the out of you not having the card because it means he still probably loses in 2 turns
>>57036350No I mean the current shop lol>>57036349It's just a single day of stamina. I got my bulbasaur like that and if magnemite doesn't drop I'll get it the same way. I just want them for completionism, but the last event didn't deliver me a meowth playset and I'm still a bit salty.
>>57036361He has a good chance of finding another basic to just not die.In my opinion he should not attack and Blaine player should definitely not attack.
>>57036352Everytime someone does something like this I rolly eyes.
Khang is weird, its an essential card but its horrible against mewtwo and charizard deck. Unless you get mad lucky with double heads, Moltres has no fucking problem letting you sit there while the arcanine or zard in the back gets nonstop energy. The 3 retreat cosr always makes me not want to run it
>>57036352based, I hate kang
>>57036394>In my opinion he should not attack and Blaine player should definitely not attack.But what if I feel really lucky?
>last 10 or so packs opened have been all commonssomething good is coming surely...
>>57036471NOOOERIKA SANI'LL SAVE YOU
>>57036471saving up luck for the miniset bro
>>57036471The worst a pack can be is 3 commons and 2 uncommons.
third time is the charm
I call all white border / 1 cost wonder pull batches commons
I always get kinda confused when we both spend our first few turns building up board state, no attacks, and then opp concedesDo you really believe that there's no route to victory? Is there truly no hope for you? To waste all that time tending to your garden, only to revoke it's opportunity to flourish?Terrible. I still would've won tho
>>57036494My third wonder pick was still garbage you liar.
https://x.com/ursiiday/status/1865102800096571551?s=46thoughts on how this will effect the PTCGP meta going forward?
>>57035375I don't like how it interacts with Mewtwo ex plus Potion.
>>57036508I wish I was a hot girl almost every day.
>>57036495The official names are:Common, Uncommon, Rare, Double Rare (diamond rarities)Art Rare, Secret Rare, Special Art Rare, Immersive Rare (star rarities; normal 2-stars and alt. art 2-stars are SRs and SARs)Crown Rare (crown rarity)
>>57036508howhowHOWHOOOW do i get a gf like this
>>57035863Lickitung would he insufferable at 100 HP and 2 energy. That's the same as Tauros but with an attack that does 120 average damage.
>>57036513life compared to hers is like day and night
>>57036508I don't know but I suddenly have an urge to make a bnuuy deck
>>57036518These suck. I agree with the other anon.For me it's:>1-2 diamonds = common>3 diamond = uncommon>anything above that = rare and you can be more specific if you really wantI reserve the right to dismiss the official classifications purely based on the fact that single star rarity cards are more common than quad diamonds and that is dumb.
>>57036529Lickitung deals an average of 60 damage per attack.60*(.5^1) + 60*(.5^2) + 60*(.5^3) + ... = 60 * (.5 + .25 + .125 + ...) = 60 * 1
>>57036545He was assuming you're a skilled coin flipper.
Finally got a 2nd sabrinaIs there any reason I wouldn't put both in every single deck?
>>57036555I could imagine cutting her but I've never done it.
have you got your mew yet?
>>57036601I'm not even close
>>57036601I've just hit over 1000 total cards and still missing 9 for Mew
>>57036165You're aggressively retarded
Dark kind of functions right now with some decent cards. But steel is fucking awful.Hopefully next set (assuming it is johto) gives them some proper love and we aren't in the gen 3 waiting room for Metagross to make it usable
>>57036547OK. Well, by that measure 3 energy for 120 on a basic is solid. Moltres is +10 dmg + 10 HP -2 retreat but he needs 1 colored energy and lightning weakness is a bigger issue than fighting weakness.
>>57036633Brock will make Steelix good, I believe.
What is the...uh...Fuwalos of Pokemon?
fuck wonder pick fuck wonder pick fuck wonder pick fuck wonder pick fuck wonder pick fuck wonder pick
>Not a single goddamn Chansey pick to get the new artsAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH JUST GIVE ME THE FUCKING PROMOS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>57036667We are not in this depth of hell.>>57036679I got the Chansey Bulbasaur 10 minutes ago. 11 tickets so far (including missions).>>57036690I haven't seen a paid offer yet either.
>>57036699>I got the Chansey Bulbasaur 10 minutes ago. 11 tickets so far (including missions).i've only gotten tickets so far but to me its waiting 24 hours for a 20% chance at a 3 diamond i need only to get the millionth duplicate 1 diamond
>Not a single VenusaurThis game is frustrating
>>57036690It's like 1 per day
>>57036733I've gotten like 15 free picks by now. The key to success in this event is to not value your time.
just wanted to say that i hate how overtuned and braindead EX pokemon are, thats all. Maybe i would understand if you were limited to one line per deck but nope, shove 2 ex zapdos and 2 ex pikashits in your deck. Why the fuck not
>>57035254when does the 5 win steak event start
>>57036769Just you wait until we get "Radiant Blazikan ex" are some shit and it's way more overtuned.
>>57036633melmetal is really strong
>>57036787mondays reset, that would be our very last datamined eventso we're blind going forward unless we get more datamines
>>57036633>But steel is fucking awful.They prefer to be called Metal.
>>57036172Mewtwo likes it at least because Venu/Zard are a pain to play against if you brick and have to stall. I imagine the same principle would apply with Venu/Zard themselves if they're playing a similar tempo deck or even a mirror match. If your opponent is sitting with a huge hand and finally finds an Ivysaur after many turns, the Red Card next turn probably wins you the game.
What are these bronze boxes I get from the shop daily for free do? I can't find a inventory for them.
>>57036790Part of the reason why i get so annoyed is because so many basics have such high hp and manageable retreat cost. Can’t one shot it? That shit is getting swapped out onto the bench, too bad. Lost to a deck i felt like i outplayed because he just flip flopped between too 130hp zapdos, low retreat costs mean he can just bring them in back and forth so easily. All that on a basic pokemon
>>57036807They are just the representation of the gift I think, you just the the ticket
>>57036769I lost like 3battles in a row during the last pvp event because niggas somehow draw 2pikachus EX during their first two turns and there is nothing I can do to counter that.
>>57036807They don't exist. It's an icon to bring attention to the fact that the items are "a gift" from DeNA
>>57036811>>57036814So what exactly do I get as the free reward? It's retarded to even have that icon it's so confusing.
>>57036787nyoh my godimagine squeezing those honkhonks
>Only have Exeggcute on the play>Opponent puts down a lone Charmander>Draw nothing, no Pokeballs or Prof Research>Lose to a single Charmander attackWell I'm glad someone was finally able to attack with Charmander
>>570368161 Shop Ticket and 1 Wonder Glass.>>57036808I stand by my complaint that Mewtwo should be a Stage 1 you evolve from Mew's Eyelash.
>>57036816You get a shop ticket
>>57036808A big part of what makes that annoying is you can just get stuck without a means to increase damage output, either. Everyone only having a single attack means if you don't draw an Evo or have a bigger basic you just can't win mathematically. Simplification is the death of card games.
>>57035315Someone made versions of this with Sabrina and Erika, has someone made webms of those?
Is this a bug, all the other picks I've seen were in English
>>57036823>>57036824What should I spend my shop tickets on?
>>57036843no, you'll sometimes get wonderpicks in other languages that other people are using. If you friend foreigners, their foreign language cards will show up in your wonderpicks as well
>>57036843Whatever the language the person put, that will be the language of their cards in wonder pick, the game even tracks down all the different language versions of a card you have.
>>57036842https://youtu.be/WTSFPo9AVmUhttps://youtu.be/GScPhRfwglA
>>57036846first blue hourglasses that let you pull booster packs, then orange ones after you've run out for more wonderpicks. if your missing some items after doing the basic and advanced combat tutorials, you can spend them on buying those as well.
>>57036862Yeah, those, but is there webms of them?
>>57036870Use youtube-dl.>>57036843https://i.4cdn.org/vp/1733356909118808.jpg
>>57036836I used to play the pokemon TCG in middle school but didnt cards usually always have 2 attacks? It gave you more options instead of doing damage which may not even matter sometimes
>>57036872Whoever came out with the German names for the pokemon is a fucking genius.
https://poal.me/dotzg7
>>57036761He said chansey, not free picks
>>57036885gene simmons
die mewtwo ex niggers
>>57036892Oh. My mistake. I've seen 0 of those so far.
Is the chansey pick free?
>>57036903No it costs 24 hours. >>57035093But the Chansey pick is 5 promos while the Bonus pick is 1 promo 30% of the time and 0 promos 70% of the time.
>>57036913You mean it cost "two wonder tokens" or that they only appear once every 24 hours?
>>57036881They definitely used to, a lot of them anyway. It looks like modern sets have either evolvable pokemon that get more attacks as they evolve, or the ones that don't evolve will have some kind of utility ability, and an attack. I guess years of pushing 300+ HP basics have made a lot of these irrelevant.
>>57036791It's like charizard without moltres or venusaur without Erika. I wouldn't call it strong. Decent probably.
>>57036913None of my Bonus Picks have had the promo, just the normal art version of Magnemite or Bulbasaur
>>57036918It costs 2 "Wonder Stamina" which you can acquire through some combination of waiting for 24 hours or spending 24 Wonder Hourglasses.
>>57036925It will come, don't worryIt's just low chance. I saw a promo magnet
>>57036862Cute. Need one with Misty now.
>>57036932I would literally use gold to do Wonder Picks if I could get a Chansey pick more than once a day
>>57036925I've gotten 1 A1 Bulbasaur and 1 P-A Bulbasaur so far. I've also missed 2 P-A Bulbasaurs and 1 P-A Magnemite. In total I've seen 4 promos. That was out of 16 picks so I'm doing slightly below average (25% vs 30%).>>57036934Erika and Sabrina are in the same pack as Blaine.>>57036939Never speak these words again.
>>57036843Wonder picks from friends are in their language. You can also just change your language in settings if you want to pull cards from other languages, it tracks them separately from your English cards.
when did you guys realize that wonder hourglasses were more valuable than pack hourglasses?
>>57036927Well that sucks, I remember the first chansey pick with fucking Meowth being FREE.
>>57036952Why make things free when the piggies will pay
>>57036949they're only more valuable if there are actually wonderpicks that have cards you want, and ideally more than 2 of them.
>>57036952Your memory is faulty.https://ptcgp.raenonx.cc/en/wonder-pick/chansey/SC_GC_0002010_LC_01https://ptcgp.raenonx.cc/en/wonder-pick/free/SC_GC_0002010_FR_01>>57036949Around the time I had opened 20 packs.
Have the dataminers discovered for what is the "advance ticket" for?
>>57036945>Never speak these words again.Yahweh as my witness I will hand Ishiharastein a bundle of coins if it would let me do promo picks more
>>57036821lmao dumpstered
>>57036984it's been 2 months without any content update, the info just isn't thereyou will wait and you will be happy
Imagine not only spending money on a telephone game but spending money on to reduce the delay on a chance to roll for a 1/5 chance to get the card you want in a children's telephone game.
>>57037022In this fantasy I am gainfully employed.
>>57037006It was followed up by someone playing regular Lapras who managed to score 3 heads on Misty on BOTH Lapras. I have never had my ass beat so hard in my life.
>>57036547Behold!
>lucky shitter tries to flex on me with a gio after i brick all 3 games of the bo3 and he gets the usual god draws>end up winning the bo3best feeling in the world
>>57037103it's... beautiful...
i like pocket and think its a good mobile game, but im kinda down on deck building. It feels like all decks that dont revolve around an OP basic mon are meme decks.
>>57037103my own version of the ludopath deck, posted it a couple threads ago, it has a bit of synergy so it's semi-viable, and yes it has actually beaten meta decks
>>57037141If you consistently get heads the only outs to Dugtrio are poisoning it with Weezing, killing it with Poliwrath or Greninja, or benching it with Sabrina, Pidgeot, or Victreebel.
>>57037144This looks like a deck that wouldn't get thanks after matches
FUCKING GODDAMN NEW PROMO SUCKSWait all day to finally get a free promo yo appear and its literally the base bulbasaur and base magnemiteHaven't had a legit new promo all day
>>57037142You cracked the puzzle.
>>57037144Imagine if misty let you attach water energy to any pokemon card
>>57037166eh it's actually the opposite because it tends to get in a position to be competitive and give people a game but naturally it can't hit every flip [and every draw] and ends up falling short against better decks so they still come away with the win. people seem to find it pretty amusing at least.
>get a moltres EX by pulling and add him to my zard EX deck>I literally defeat the highest difficulty in 10 turnsI'm finally gonna get that venusaur alt card grinding
>>57037142We need more cards
I just need one more charizard and I can move on to other setsI don't even care if it's EX at this point, I'll take the regular
Is there hope for Dragonite bwosIt’s fun but it’s so bad
>>57037275
OMASTAR SHOULDN'T BE LEGALMAKING YOUR OPPONENT NOT BE ABLE TO ATTACK EVERY SINGLE TURN IS FUCKING UNFAIREVEN IF YOU CAN RETREAT IF YOU PUT ALL YOUR ENERGY ON YOUR ACTIVE POKEMON THEN YOU POTENTIALLY CANT ATTACK WITH THE POKEMON YOU RETREAT TO EITHER
>>57037192It's really bullshit that the free wonder pick can not have the promo versions of the cards. And that the pay side of the wonder pick has nothing but cards.They must really want people spending their wonder hourglasses.
>>57035351This card looks very hard to maintain and use effectively. If hold items were implemented, it would need something like leftovers to stay afloat.
>>57037335>'You weren't holding shift you used caps lock you dirty rat.
>>57037335What is X Speed?
AIIIIIIIIE
>>57037357Spent 3 fucking turns building up energy for KinglerJust to get stopped by omastar from attackingWhat a gay ass game that kingler has 3 retreat cost and omastar can keep you from attacking every turnIt should be every other turn at least
>>57036800Venusaur's tempo is way too slow, believe me. You're better of tanking and absorbing damage. Butterfree gives you a better payoff than any red card. "But butterfree is just as slow" exactly. You're not stalling anything out of your red card, you're drawing something that isn't evolving. This applies to the turn waste that is lilligant or getting to Exeggutor if you're on that variant.
>>57037389If you would have picked top middle it would have shown venusaur at bottom rightDON'T TRUST THE JAPJEW
>>57037395>>57037395>Spent 3 fucking turns building up energy for KinglerAnd that entire time you didn't see them building up Omastar?
Erm... So reddit is theorizing that 4stars wonders appear MORE when you have 3 or more stamina..?
>>57037389>[water] Tongue Slap 20>[water] Gentle Slap 20
>>57037400>bro it's rigged>it's not a 1/5 chance. Higher rarties hvae a lower chance of being picked
>>57037409What the fuck are you arguing? You think i can pick what cards get put in my hand? Stop trying to justify the toxic fucking omastar
>>57037420>Gentle Slap>Caves in both their skulls
>>57037395just ko crab him duh, thats what you signed up for playing the kingler
>>57037454Turn 1 put energy on krabbyTurn 2 put energy on krabbyTurn 3 put energy on kinglerKnock out articuno exOmastar comes in with 3 energyGG
>>57037454What's the KO Crab deck list? I must know this power.
>>57036984my nightmare theory is that it'll be the first of a new currency that you'll need for trades and you'll only be able to get them using a shitload of tranny tickets or pack point equivalent
>>57037469TIL Kingler is worth 3 points.
>>57037479That sees plausible actually.
tentacruel and greninjabeast mode deck
>>57037395>KinglerMeme vs. Meme, and meme happened to win. The game is working as intended.
>>57037527>Meme vs. Meme, and meme happened to win.You hate to see it. Meme should have won instead.
>>57037544Fuck Meme. Meme is a better deck.
>>57037395>>57037335Sounds like you had a brick hand. If you needed 3 turns to fund your Kingler then Misty NTR'd you. If you weren't equipped to handle a soft paralysis it's not an issue of Omastar being overpowered.
and that's all the museums done
jfc weezing gets absolutely shredded by gren, RIP end of an era
>>57036032Venusaur decks would run 2.
>He runs a coinflip deckGoing to enjoy the tournament?
>>57037575Good. Weezing is easily the most annoying card from generic apex in my opinion, and Greninja is at least more interesting than most stage 2s.
>beat Articuno / Starmie ex with Wheezing/Greninja>came down to the fucking wire, he had literally 3 almost-dead EXs and no way to get the third prize point he needed before he realized it was GameI love playing shit decks
Glad I waited until after the fire event honestly.
I really like arcanine's cards but his attack is like shit with the recoil
>>57037646Blame the games for making the most distributed and powerful standard physical fire attack Flare Blitz
>>57037646Would you prefer the attack do less damage, do more damage AND more recoil, or cost more energy?Because the closest comparison is Machamp EX who costs 1 more stage to field, and does the same damage for the same energy.
>>57037681>>57037646Actually I feel like it'd probably be nice if you could use Bite for 2 energy, so Arcanine could finish off mostly-dead mons without hurting himself + overkill, and leave the Blitz the same?
>>57037418That would explain why I never see them
Honestly it's not that Arcanine needs a buff, it's just that we could use a better Growlithe.
>>57037689For comparison, centiskorch does similar dmg at a stage 1,but needs one more energy and still has to sacrifice an energy, for 3 mana on an ex and 120 dmg it'll solos most mons, you can't have all pluses
>>57037699>>57037418For what it's worth the only time I've ever seen a 4 stam Pull, I had 5 energy and was frantically looking for somewhere to spend on
>>57037706What Growlithe would you add in if you could?
>>57037706This. Wigglytuff EX became infinitely more viable the moment the promo Jiggly replaced the 2 energy poundshitter.
>>57037718>60 HP>Poké Power Odor Sleuth: If this Pokémon is active, once per turn, your opponent must show their hand.>Tackle, 1 energy, 10 damage (or 20 just to dab on the original)
>>57037718[basic] Growlithe HP 60 [fire][fire] $ATTACK_NAME 20If this Pokémon does not have at least 1 extra [fire] Energy attached, this Pokémon also does 10 damage to itself.weakness [water]+20 retreat [colorless][colorless]
>>57037734I think we've probably got 6-12 months before we get any non-EX pokemon that aren't entirely vanilla
>>57037752DON"T OPEN THIS
>>57037761will 2 fix him?
>>57037761If he had 60 HP you'd see him everywhere.
>>57037766Porygon 1 is perfectly fine.Perfectly useless, but at what point in history was Porygon 1 ever noteworthy?
>>57037761Fair fucking point. To wheel back the goalposts a bit, his ability is 1/3rd of a Pokedex, where as the Growlithe you proposed is a WHOLE hand scope.I guess Victreebell and Pidge also have abilities and shit.
>>57037681Do the same shit as marowak or like ninetales lose 1 energy after attacksOr ability: Intimidate your opponent need more energy to do attacks
>>57037767Wat, why would anyone use this over Farfetch'd or Kanga?
>>57037771>>57037774>>57037776>>57037779>dat close proximityMy Arceus, we really are dominating this board.
>>57037779>have oak and pokeball in hand>use this nibba to check if you want to shuffle the next card or draw itNot sure why 60 vs 50hp makes a difference though since he's a bench utility mon
>>57037771>at what point in history was Porygon 1 ever noteworthy?when he caused hundreds of seizures
>>57037792Me neither. Surviving one Dragonite meatball or something? Wakarimasen lol
>>57037779Draw control if you have Poke Ball to shuffle your deck. It also helps you make informed decisions with Professor's Research and another supporter you're thinking about using instead.>>57037792At 60 HP you're a lot more likely to keep it alive long enough to retreat if you get stuck with it as the only basic in your opening hand.
Got a gift for you guys next bread!
>>57037824I think I know who you are, I think I know what the gift is, and I think I'm grabbing some nose plugs before you bake.
