Will Misty look at me like this if she finds out I spent money on the pass in this game?
Amen.
>>57055458Probably not since that's not her eye color
You just know
>>57055468I don't know tell me
If you don't have Venusaur I'll trade you one for 2 Greninja.
One time at a tournament, I got pulled aside from a female staff member and told I needed to shower or I would be disqualified. She was super cute so it was kind of embarrassing but she handled it delicately and besides, I have a bit of a humiliation kink. I made a pass at her, asking if she was inviting me to shower with her but in hindsight I think I misread the situation, and then things got really out of hand. Long story short, I had to register as a sex offender, but more importantly, I was blacklisted from competitive play (hence why I'm a "former" professional TCG player, my skills haven't diminished in the slightest)
What is the most fun deck you would like to play against so I can use it to concede and give people free wins.
>>57055464She's wearing contacts
these are the most popular decks in tournaments
>>57055498Pikashit has been getting stomped recently
>>57055498fuck that little yellow rat man
>>57055502by what
>>57055498The only deck I can play here is mewtwowhich is annoying because like yeah I can grind out other ones in the future but they'll just be weaker
>>57055509It used to be the best but fire chards started putting arcanine in their decks. Moltres with blaine and charizard is crazy good.
>>57055481Kek. Good times.
>>57055498This fat rat got me through on my 3rd run
>>57055477https://soundcloud.com/rustycagemusic/white-girls-fuck-dogsShe's pink and clearly meant to be Japanese but the sentiment applies.
Are there any other grass decks out there? Grass is already rare, and the only ones I see are Venusaur only. Are all the other grass mons that bad?
>>57055502Almost as if I was correct when telling everyone Pika was overrated. It’s a good deck, but Pika’s low health + the deck’s struggle to put up big late game numbers are legitimate flaws.
>>57055567>Almost as if I was correct>IYou weren't and aren't the only person saying that Mewtwo is better than Pika, anon.
>>57055562I have fun with vileplume
Pro tip for 5 wins: play during jap commute hours and you get free wins when their train goes through a tunnel
>Immersive Mewtwo gets different triangle flair for 18k dust>Immersive Charizard gets nothing special for 18k dustMewtwo bias is real.
>>57055568Of course, I wasn’t. The common early metagame opinion was that Pika was an unbeatable, oppressive force, and I just never agreed.
What am I missing
>>57055581isnt the flair you get to pick random?
I know he shit his pants.
>>57055588pass mew2, and promo bulba
>>57055588Bulbasaur from the current Wonder pick event, and gold pass Mewtwo >>57055589No? Why would it be random?
Is this a good meme deck for the event?The idea is to power up licki and do massive damage.
>>57055593NOOONOT THE AERODACTYLMISTYSAVE ME
>>57055607moltreEX engine ability only works on fire pokemon
>>57055595Not random per se, but there are 3 different flair routes.
show me a scarier board in the gameyou literally can't
>>57055477She's a filthy netdecker
>>57054665It took me about 30 battles. That's less than the previous event, but I never felt like I was making progress.>>57055589No, but the order the flairs appear in the shop is semi-random and the dust prices depend on the order.Anon is on flair route A. https://ptcgp.raenonx.cc/en/flair/list
>>57055498>Braindead cocksuckingNot surprised in the slightest
The only people I thank are people who early concede, before they have actually lost. Fuck this event.
>>57055607It really makes me sad that SAR Moltres went to an illiterate retard like you. There's even a little fire symbol next to the word benched, you moron. You fucking donut.
>>57055607You don’t have the energy to spare for kangaskhan, normal mewtwo is better for stallingMoltres only works on fire, cut it out of the deckYou’re on the right track with fossils, you need to add aerodacytl
i got my 5 wins in a row after 7 wins total, 9 total matches. now what. i feel like if i play any more i'm just ruining other peoples chance at getting streaks but i also kind of want the 10 win dust.
I already won the event so now I'm queuing up with my most cancer blocker decks to stop people's winstreaks with crazy gambits.
>>57055614Whoops. That's a reminder not to play Pokemon go while buzzed. >>57055629I would like to apologise Mr. Gordon Ramsay.
>>57055633>>57055636The duality of anon
>>57055633Make a reddit account and argue about whether you should stick around in the event queue to concede or to try to win. That's all they've been talking about for the past 2 days.>kind of want the 10 win dust.There's another 2000 dust at 15 wins.
>>57055636Post em and I'll join in.
>>57055556Chat is this true
Mewtwo feels so dirty sometimesThey can outdraw you initially, outplay you and still lose if they don't get their endgame combo in time.
neat start
>>57055644Mistycuno is great for it if you get good rollsI'm also running wheezebok to bonk mewtwos Also >>57055593 if you want to send a mistycuno to the shadow realmRemember consistency no longer matters so you want hard counters to popular meta decks
>>57055624>It took me about 30 battlesI don’t think that’s very bad. I got mine somewhere between 20-25 games with a ~70% win rate. The event is completely reliant on luck, and I’m sure someone out there is still getting fucked raw despite playing well.
I am forgotten
any questions
>>57055607You could build a sleep deck with Hypno, Frosmoth, Jiggly promo/EX if you have one
>>57055647>They can outdraw you initially, [...] they don't get their endgame combo in time.Then they didn't outdraw you.>outplay youI've played Mewtwo and there's not much room to outplay anyone. The deck plays itself.The only decision you have to make is when to abandon or retreat your active Pokemon. And that's a decision your opponent imposes on you.Once Gardevoir is online you have a lot more flexibility with retreating but once Gardevoir is online you've already won so it rarely matters.>>57055650>I’m sure someone out there is still getting fucked raw despite playing well.They'll get it eventually. Plenty of people aren't playing well and I'm sure some they're never going to get it.My winstreak was 1 unlucky opponent and 4 bad opponents. What are my bad opponents supposed to do to climb up, run in to 5 unlucky opponents?
>>57055662>Mewtwo EXYou didn't beat it.But I'll let it slide for that deck name.https://youtu.be/KjHCTapBgvA
>>57055662>he name your deck
I WISH ALL MY MOMLESS BROS A LOT OF HEADS
>>57055624>>57055650Luckily I did it in about 15. What helped me was mentally recalibrating to imagine it was a 'win 100 battles' event and that statistically I would get a 5 streak sometime by the end of the week. Made the entire thing pretty much stress-free, was shocked I got it so fast.
>>57055659Yesterday I fought a battle where I did Data Scan into Concede. That must have cracked my opponent up.
>>57055633I'm either beating them up with Pika EX and conceding if they stay on the turn I have a win or playing my meme decks which are unfortunately still stomping bad players.>>57055636Not my style but someone has to be the Gary
>lost my 4 win streak to a guy who already had the medalI fucking hate this game and I fucking hate all of you
i don't get it is there a limit on the amount of plays for the event? why don't you just keep queueing until you get 5 wins in a row? what's everyone crying about
>>57055697>what's everyone crying aboutThe fact that getting 5 wins in a row is entirely lucky based.
>>57055695hehe
>>57055647The combo is nasty but Pika is so brainless I can't single Mewtwo out. Honestly Weezing/Koga decks piss me off more
>>57055691I love the Porygons in my metal deck, scanning every turn while I build my robot army just feels right
>>57055695Did you concede?
Godpack anon, do you remember if this came before or after your godpack?
>>57055695It'll feel even better when you've earned it
>>57055718It really wont, because all it will prove is that I got lucky.
Are you guys playing junk?idg how you'd have trouble, I'm really not seeing many meta decks
>>57055704>Pika is so brainlessIt’s really not, compared to Mewtwo at least. The early game blowouts just make it seem brainless, and to be fair, those games usually are kek.>Weezing/Koga decks piss me off moreI hate how boring Mewtwo decks can be to play against, but Weezing is some multiple of that. Very underhated card.
>>57055633>>57055636>>57055639I'm playing Seaking-Kingler Flip it and Rip. If my opponents get bad flips against them, then this wasn't their streak.
>get my 5 win streak with mewtwo>go back to playing average decksusing top tier shit really puts everything into perspective. i just bricked 5 times in a row with greninja and wigs
I have all 3 lgbt birds
you know the game requires no skill when the strongest beginner deck and the strongest competitive deck are identical
>>57055732you can brick with any deck, the real challenge is not bricking 5 times in a row
Still not having fun, plus>play with a blaine deck>first match is against another blaine deck>the first one after playing some 40 games with other decksDare I say rigged.
>>57055727>Have Pika and basics in your opening hand, winor>Have basics and professor oak + pokeballs, fetch for Pika turn 1, winor>Your opponent got an equally unlucky opening hand, stall till turn 3/4, pull Pika, winIts that or concede. I'm not hating on it but its one strategy, one gamplan, and you do it every time. Can't say its much better than Mewtwo except its more accessible to players, so its a deck of the people.
>>57055733how much have you spent on the game?
>>57055728post list
>>57055733the moltres card is so beautiful
do you need Arcanine to run Charizard
>>57055752No... you just need moltres
GET FUCKED
>>57055733Nice. I'm still missing Zapdos
>>57055752no there are builds without him but the arcanine one seems to be the one that performs better at tournaments
>>57055732Playing with 3-stage lines as your wincon is just gonna be brickier until they add more search optionsI did my winstreak with Mewtwo as well but replaced Garde with Weezing since I didn't like having a useless Ralts/Kirlia just sitting in the bench because I didn't draw their evos
>>57055748I played since day 1 with season passI only have 1300 cards
>>57055760whale-kun...
will gyarados ever be good
>>57055741you genuinely can't brick mewtwo unless you never draw it and don't draw your oaks and pokeballsinsanely low chance of that happening
>>57055733Where's your immersive Charizard bro?
>>57055768Im working on it :(
>>57055765>you genuinely can't brick mewtwo unless you brickit happens way more often than you'd think
heh, what are the odds of that?kneel before my luck...
I'm beyond tilted, straight up vertical

>>57055783Happens when you play a no skill game that wants you to win streak in it.
>>57055760i'm impressed. did you pull all of the birds or wonderpick some?
TriarGODs, add another to the list.Just need one more for the 5 gard mission
>>57055789shit and 2 xspeed
>>57055716we're coming up on the 3 day mark, I don't think the godpack is live. I've been checking on two accounts and it never showed up. I did see this sharitcuno from him, so there was that.
you guys are skilled gamers, right?
I know it's a lot of extra packs but season pass still doesn't feel worth it.I'd probably prefer it if they gave you 10 packs every 10 days or something
>>57055792I pulled articuno and zapdos and wp’d moltres
>>57055805Sorry, I'm not a cumguzzling retard
>>57055802Ah, RIP then. Well, worth a try, at least.
>>57055746You’re massively oversimplifying it. Pika’s reliance on extra basics complicates the gameplan both in making it more difficult to open with Pika and in altering your path towards a win con (key chips with Zeb, positioning a Raichu, pincurchin flips, etc.). The best Mewtwo strats really don’t have anything comparable.Again, I’m not saying it’s *that* difficult. It’s just a bit more complicated than people give it credit for. Certainly a bit more complicated than the average pocket deck.
>>57055812coooooooope
Could you imagine
>>57055451Before the new sets release they should drop or "leak" cards early by having them as surprises in the current packs. That will never happen because even if I enjoy the game I admit it's pretty sanitized and safe. It would be very exciting if they did however.
>>57055704>Pika is so brainless I can't single Mewtwo outMewtwo is more brainless than Pika though
>>57055825As soon as they were in the files they would be datamined, people would come up with optimal meta decks, and the first day would be 100% those decks.
>>57055824Supporters are way more powerful and we have Psyduck.
FOUR WINSNOW ON MY FIFTH GAMETAILS>TAILSTAILS>TAILS
brosi needi need new cardsbrosi..
>get to four>wipe outEVERYFUCKINGTIME
>>57055831It shouldve been a pokebilityThe strongest supporter cards are the ones you can use Turn 1 to break the games rules (Misty and Misty alone at the moment)
>>57055829I'm not saying they should release all of them, just a couple, not enough to make a deck.
>>57055838Misty your Psyduck turn 1.
I wonder if matchmaking pairs up players based on their current win streak
>you got any more of them packs?>nigga ill suck yo dick for an hourglass
>>57055838We have that too but putting it on anything but a stage 2 would be too powerful.
>>57055695Goddamn anon that's gotta sting>Yeah I have no real need to beat you since I already finished buuuuut you know what I'mma do it anyway
>>57055845No, and you will never get that 5th win.
>>57055823cuuuiuuuum's in your mouth
>previous thread is still upGuys I think this one might have come out of the oven a bit early
I'm starting to think that getting to 5 wins is straight up impossible for me. I'm just not a luckchad. I'll get to 3 wins and then only draw Moltres, or never draw Gardevoir, or never draw Greninja. It's always the same.
GOT 7 CONSECUTIVE WINS WITH DOUBLE MOLDRES AND ARCANINE/FLAREON
>>57055858I'm already done with the event though
>>57055869>>57055687
>>57055805The fact anyone would screenshot and post this as if it's anything to boast about is sad
>>57055873>"""mentally recalibrating""" will make the event more bearableNo it wont.
>heart flair on the KirliaI know what you are.
Im about to queue in matchmaking with this shit tier deck, get your free wins from me NOW
Wtf am I doing wrong? Almost too often it'll feel like it's taking too long to get going or the deck just flat out refuses to give me an Ivysaur. Like where's the line between an actual dead hand &/or dogshit matchups?>ButterfreeReally don't think it's worth the effort unless you've got time to kill via Stallfaggotry like Koga+Weezing
>>57055880>just don't ever change how you look at things and seethe the exact same way every timeSounds like a skill issue
>PokephileBased>pedophileBASED
>>57055888based? yeah, i am. thank you.
>>57055898Meant to reply to >>57055888
>>57055760You must have no hourglasses then. I’m also day 1 with pass and I have 1100 cards but also 50 packs worth of glass
>>57055892Do you really need that many potions and no pokeballs
>>57055898what about pokepedophiles
>>57055892Middle stages need a boost. Pokeball that lets you search for a basic of stage 1 would be nice. Also, if you have 2 sets of EggsEx, run that instead
>>57055892drop one potion and meowth for pokeballs. reducing the number of basics will improve your odds at getting petlil/bulbasaur in your opening hand and being able to directly tutor your basics instead of randomly pulling cards like with meowth is more valuable.
>>57055892As much as I love Lilligant she's too slow for her to be useful. Use Kanga/Egg EX for tanking while building Venu.2 Sabrinas I would say is overkill, replace with pokeballs.
>get five whale pikachu decks in a row>make a marowak/wigglytuff deck out of pure spite>haven't seen a pikachu deck since wtf
>>57055874the fact that you're too retard to understand simple humour is sad
>>57055892You arent doing anything wrong, this deck sucks. Liligant is too energy hungry
>>57055925the system knows
>>57055892You’re the first guy to ask for help instead of luckwhine, so you will get the medal, trust. I haven’t played Venu EX but I did get my 2nd Ivysaur today, however I will say that the Exeggutor EX variants are far stronger because Exeggutor EX can win games on its own. Ditch Meowth and a Sab for 2 Poke Balls so you can draw faster and find important pieces, then replace the Petilil line with Eggs. Eggy carries the early game while Venu builds on the bench, gg ez.
>>57055893There is a meter that tracks your win streak on the deck selection screen.
>>57055925I literally only run into dark decks when playing Mewtwo.
>>57055805Why are you playing in japanese you ultra fag
>>57055888I will do just that the moment I get enough extra copies of Kirlia
>>57055949uhh because nippon is the most glorious country in the sekai?frickin baka gaijin
Give me some venemoth decks bros...
>>57055948Just played a dark deck as Melmetal. Kinda bullshit that steel types can get poisoned, not gonna lie, but an early red card wound up securing me the win.
>>57055888Shiiieet, thanks for the idea
Isn’t Venusaur better than Venusaur EX
>>57055891>3 win streakdo better guys
>>57055961>30 damage attack on a stage 1>80 hpyeah I don't think there's anyway to prop that up.
>>57055950Route A needs 4 extra copies.Route B needs 3 extra copies.Route C needs 5 extra copies.FAs start with all flairs for sale so you can use the to check your account's flair route.
>>57055888
Total Starmie death
>>57055965the difference in it's damage isn't that significant, true, but I think the jump from 160 to 190 hp makes a big difference. It puts you out of range of getting OHKO'd by meta threats like EX marowak or mewtwo+giovanni. You want EX venu more for the survivability, and extra 3 energy attack more than you want it for the extra 20 damage on it's 4 energy attack.
>>57055965If it only needed 3 energy for its attack then sure you could argue it has its perks over ex but nope the ex is a direct upgrade over the original here
slept on cards/anti-meta cards:tentacruelgoldukkinglercloysterzebstrikavictreebelpsyduckfearow
Are the current pack points going to be valid for the mini set? Since I can't seem to get a 5 win streak to save my life, I wanted to goof around, but I can't even do that the way I want to.
>>57055985>Are the current pack points going to be valid for the mini set?We don't know. The miniset might be a 4th pack for Genetic Apex or it might be totally separate.
>>57055821I guess thats fair. Pika got me my 5 wins so you'll hear no complaints from me.
>>57055983>goldukPlayed in some Starmie/Misty lists>zebstrikaPlayed in like half of all Pikachu lists>psyduckPlayed in Gengar lists and also the Golduk Starmie/Misty lists>tentacruelI've actually seen a couple of these in the eventKingler, Cloyster, Victreebel, and Fearow I never see though.

>>57055983I disagree, i think most of those see decent play except>cloyster>victreebel>fearowvictreebel seems way too low damage to take advantage of it's ability, and it's difficult to get venusaur online at the same time so you could actually do some damage when most other decks are hitting for more than 100 normally. I'm curious why you think cloyster or fearow are slept on
>>57055821>Again, I’m not saying it’s *that* difficult. It’s just a bit more complicated than people give it credit for. Certainly a bit more complicated than the average pocket deck.Damn. First fossilfag got btfo by fossils being bad and regular mewtwo being good, and now the thread is finally realizing that Pikachu is more complicated than the other meta decks. Was the professional TCG player right about anything?
>>57055949>umm why are you playing in a language you speak???fucking retard thinks when you're learning a language you only start consuming native content once you're fluent
What will Typhlosion's inevitable EX card be like?
>>57056007But the goat Hanamon didn't play a 5th basic in Mewtwo?Mewtwo fossilfag here. Playing Hanamons list with 1 mewtwo over the gio
>>57056021erm one fossil*
>>57056008>learning japaneseYikes...
>>57056021>name dropping some retard no one knows about from like a month agokek>with 1 mewtwo over the giokek, fossilfag doesn't even believe in his fossils anymoreI can respect that you realized you were wrong though. Shame you had to larp as a professional TCG player for anyone to care about your wrong opinions though. Hopefully you learned something
>>57056002Coin flipping sucks but Egg EX is good because it can usually afford to miss some and it gets access to the best healer in the game. The early game pressure it generates helps you set up Venu in the back too. Some people also run a 3rd basic Egg to increase the odds of getting one to start with since the deck lacks fat basics, might be worth doing if you feel like it helps against bricks
Expansion cards leaked yet?
>>57056015something like this maybe
>got my 3rd charizard ex todayPLEASE JUST 1 MORE MOLTRESI BEG YOU
i bricked again, fuck this toad
>>57056034Uhh but he literally won again last weekend with Pika? Try to keep up.
>>57056051at least use the oak before you say you've bricked
I did it bros! I hit 5 consecutive losses in a row!If you didn't get your streak on day 1 you are fucked, because all the F2P already quit for good after getting destroyed.
>>57055983Zebstrika is probably the best partner in PikaEX decks, it made me win several of the matches I played, especially mirror matches since you can bring an opponent's PikaEX down from 120 > 90 straight to kill range from safety. It's also a really good finisher for when they switch out trying to avoid losing a pokemon.
>>57056007Look I know this argument has been going on for multiple threads but it’s not so black and white. A player (GOOB) won the Pocket League tour a while back undefeated using Pika while he literally spent the entire top cut arguing with Ursiiday’s orbiters on discord and still won easily. Pika has more options to consider but that also works to its benefits when you misplay or draw badly; it’s harder to play a winning game with Mewtwo but harder to play a perfect game with Pikachu
>>57056051if you're the guy who posted earlier, you should have two copies of jiggly/wiggly in your deck to prevent bricking. If you only have one of each, I'd reccomend looking for other cards to make a deck with greninja.
>>57055892We've just had weeks of playing against this deck so everyone knows how to stomp it at this point
>>57056034I wrote soon after Hanamons first win that I was down to one fossil BC drawing two potions is very good. I stand by 5th basic being bad and fossil being good, though there's no room for a 2nd.Still have mid 6-figure cashes in TCGs so..... Only a fool would not re-evaluate his beliefs constantly. Would play my original 2 fossil list over any 5 basic list in a heartbeat, but 2 potion too strong
>>57056054>try to be obsessed with me eboyfriends as I amNo thanks.
>>57056069>he doesn't know who the greatest Poket player is so far>he tries to talk about the proper way to build decksSHIGGY
>>57056057This was obvious, I got my streak 30 minutes after it started when 4 people in a row conceded for hourglasses
What do I get from doing this PVP event ?Where do I find meta lists?
4 more attempts before the event ends for me to get that 4th Greninja so I can have 2 sparkly flairs
>>57056072>>he tries to talk about the proper way to build decksIf your boyfriend won playing Pika instead of Mewtwo, he's not even part of the fossil/babym2 conversation, so there's no reason to bring him up unless you wanna talk about how Pika has more lines to consider than Mewtwo, which is another thing that fossilfag (professional TCG player btw) realized much later than everyone else.
>>57056059>he literally spent the entire top cut arguing with Ursiiday’s orbiters on discord and still won easilyHoly fucking based, what was he arguing about
>>57056081you get tickets for participating, shinedust for winning, and a cosmetic if you win five times in a row
>>57056088First off, I'm fossilfag (made more with TCGs than you have working BTW)Secondly, he also won with 4 basics Mewtwo dumbass. Thirdly, Pikachu is quite simple compared to Mewtwo and everyone has laughed at you for saying otherwise for weeks now
>>57056056i drew 2 x-sneeds>>57056063Yeah persian sucks ass, 2 energy cost for its attack ruins the pokemon. 40 damage and a coin flip to make the opponent discard a card is rly bad.
>Couldn't get 5 wins with my Mewtwo EX deck>Just got 5 wins with a meme deckt-thanks I guess
>>57056094>Pikachu is quite simple compared to Mewtwo and everyone has laughed at you for saying otherwise for weeks nowlollmao evenExcept that I replied to someone who was explaining to someone else that Pika is more complicated. You poor baby.
>>57056084>he doesn't already have both greninja's with the bubble flairngmi
>>57056059There is lots of truth here, so I should try to be clearer. Pikachu is much more forgiving of mistakes than Mewtwo. Pikachu usually won't make game-altering decisions because how to sequence ball/oak in the first 2 of their energied turns. Ex-Pro TCG player here btw. My career was ruined because I made a pass at a female judge (male) when they talked to me about my body odor. Please try to keep up.
>>57056092They kicked him from Ursi’s tour in Round 10 for doing 2 tours at the same time, he asked for <5 mins to finish his pocket league game (his Ursii round had just begun) and the opp got a judge who kicked him. He was fucking pissed on stream but I do get it, it was the last round of Ursii and he basically got punished for being honest
>>57056100I'll take what I can get but the game barely drops Greniggers for me. I'm sitting at 12 Jiggly, 9 Venusaur, 14 Haunter, 11 Onix and 3 Greninjas

>>57056115>anon talks about himself in the third person while downplaying the (now provably incorrect) shit flinging he did for weeks, while larping as something that he clearly is notYou honestly hate to see it.
>>57056058>especially mirror matchesThat’s zeb’s main claim to fame, really. The card isn’t great outside of mirror matches and water decks, but for now, those are all over the place. Zeb is borderline useless vs Mewtwo.>>57056066>2 potion too strongI think you’re right. Why cut a potion in a Mewtwo deck when having both keeps a Mewtwo ex outside of the 90 damage two-shot range? It’s extremely relevant.
I won't fall for it this time
>also still completely mind broken about his inability to tell people apart and tries accusing everyone that triggers him of samefaggingGonna have another meltdown little retarded sperg?
>>57056094>Pikachu is quite simple compared to Mewtwo and everyone has laughed at you for saying otherwise for weeks nowPretty sure you think you’re talking to me, and I’m still not convinced that Mewtwo is more complicated. The deck is arguably harder to optimize, but the gameplan is about as basic as they come.
are people still struggling with 5 wins?it was easy (2 pikachu ex + 2 zapdos ex + 1 pincurchin + 2 zebra, 1 giovanni, no red card)

man I can't do this anymore, I'm using mewtwo ex, f2p btw, that's the only viable thing I can run, is this deck not good anymore or is it literally just luck?

>>57056139>Pokeball spamming to fill bench to instantly to Starmie amounts of damage vs>Actually evolving benchmons which take 3 consecutive turns before at least one can shit out extra EnergysReally nigga?
>>57056136Middle Top always and forever, take the RNG out of it
>>57056172Just luck. Shoot for 25 battles a day, you'll get it by Friday
>>57056152Zeb is good, but the prevalence of potion makes him kind of a dud in most Mewtwo games. Not saying it can’t work. Only that your odds aren’t great.One of the problems with the Pika deck, in general, is that there isn’t a clear winner in terms of the basics you should bring. There are a few decent options that all have a “it depends” scenario for why you would or would not run them.
>>57056173I fucking told you bro.
>>57056178is mewtwo ex still the same or did the meta change? like 2x mewtwo, 2x gard kirlia ralts, then like 2 giovanni 2 oak 1 Sabrina 2 pokeball 2 potion 2 xspeed 1 red card
>>57056172>is it literally just luck?It's literally just luck.
>>57055728For me, it's shitting on starmie abusers and birdfuckersIt helps that elektrik is a stage 1 evo with 1 energy attack so going first isn't a determent
>>57056190Did you run into any Arbok Weezing decks? That's the antimeta deck that rose to deal with Mewtwo decks
>>57056172>is this deck not good anymorenever has been
>>57056174>sit on big, fat niggas with 2x potion in deck>swap mon around to stallAre you assuming Pika comes online by turn 4 every game? Bad assumption. Pika has to play more adaptively than Mewtwo, where your win con is far more streamlined.
>>57056139>Pretty sure you think you’re talking to meThere are multiple people who have played both Pikachu and Mewtwo and are able to realize that Pikachu is more complicated. That's not saying much, because this is a baby's RNG coinflip card game, but it's still more complicated than Mewtwo is. The longer the game is out, the more people gain access to both decks, the more people realize the truth.
>>57056190instead of redcard people have started running normal mewtwo as a meatshield/back up plan. having an extra basic that you can sacrifice while building up ex mewtwo is good because it helps keep ex mewtwo alive, and you can actually lose two pokemon without losing the game.
>>57056199really? I thought people always bitched it was the top deck, is it not good? what's the best
>>57056216PikaLow retreat and low attack costs
>>57056197yes but mostly during this event I've just been going against articuno starmie misty bs and they're always fucking lucky
>>57056180for me, it is volts because the free switching comes in hand later and it can also deploy 70 the same turns a pikachu retires if you have a surge in hand. It can come quite unexpected and leads to some mind games.
>>57056211>The longer the game is out, the more people gain access to both decks, the more people realize the truth.We’ll see. It has been a long time since I have played a tcg, so I guess I forgot how stubbornly people hold on to early meta beliefs.
>>57056216>what's the bestIt's still Mewtwo, Pikachu, and Misty - though now Charizard is in the mix.
>>57056216>>57056220Pika ran the most consistently for me, and it at least beats Starmie/Articuno decks. You'll go 60/40 against Mewtwo/Charizard and pray you don't get a bad draw if you go against a stray fighting deck
Anyone using primeape?
>>57056238>You'll go 60/40 against Mewtwo/CharizardIf you can't kill them before they get Gardevoir or Charizard/Arcanine online, then you insta lose. I think at best it's a 50/50 for Pika, against both decks, especially now that Charizard is also running Arcanines specifically as another out against Pikachu.
>>57056211Pika needs more generic pieces but its flexible, Mewtwo's engine requires more specific options but its the same template and same gameplan. For that reason you could (in theory) say you have to think more when building/piloting a Pika deck.
>>57056124Nah it'd just other people laughing at you, as usual.T. TCG player fag
>>57056172??? Pikatards say it’s ez bro go collect your free wins :-)count cards and play very deliberately and carefully, if you go first and/or your starting hand is shit then build m2ex on your bench and have a revenge kill ready, seldom aggro with it. use babby mewtwo if you have it. the deck can brick hard and it’s hard to learn how to play out of bricks but just have the mentality of ‘how many turns do I need to stall for the find gardevoir’
>>57056225Yeah, it’s not a bad card. The deck doesn’t really need more x speeds, but they don’t hurt. Voltorb is arguably the best turn 2 lead, as well. >RaichuGreat that it works with surge and hits for a consistent 140. Having 100 hp is nice too. Sucks that his fat ass sits around being useless for most of the game. Sucks that he chucks all of your energy into the trash. Sucks that using surge means you can’t use gio for a surprise 150.>PincurchinNice to have a “oh shit, mayday!!!!” backup plan. Sucks that it requires 2 energy.>ZebBlitzle is a nice turn 1 lead. Useful in relevant meta matches (pika, water). 30 damage is kind of shit when potion is so common. >Zapdos (non ex)It’s fat? Low retreat is good but not unique. Damage output is decent but costs too much.
>>57056255>he's *still* samefagging>...about being wrong this whole timeyikes
>>57056257>he thinks that advice doesn’t also apply to PikaThat’s just stock tcg advice kek.
>>57056262Cope
>>57056190you need double sabrina, if you brick and are in a bad spot, play your first sabrina as an ‘energy removal’, even if you don’t have the second in your hand
>>57056247>If you can't kill them before they get Gardevoir onlineThey need a perfect draw vs yours, assuming you get Pika out and ready by 2 energies. Not sure on the numbers though. >Charizard/ArcanineIf they go online you missed your draws/opening hand
>>57056258Zap is more of a free switch thanks to x speed. Lead with it, tank until setup is up, switch for game. Not many things can deplete enough HP in 2 turns vs 130 HP
>>57056275Your post is just describing the game, anon. You don't always perfect draw, and if Pika does not stomp the early game against its meta competitors, it's pretty much toast. The good thing about Pika is that is beats the Misty decks that have risen in popularity due to Charizard rising in popularity, which you did cover, but I don't think it's 60/40 against Mewtwo/Charizard. I think it's more 50/50 against them.
>>57056258You're sleeping on Magneton. He's almost a second Electrode.
>>57056279Oh, I know. I was talking about the rare version.>>57056275Weird how you guys all assume a Pika deck can draw whatever and win, while also assuming the other decks will brick. I was running a Wiggly / Greninja deck all last week. Running a stage 2 is fine if you can stall, which Mewtwo is more than capable of. Far more reliably than my fucking Wigglytuff deck kek. Payoff is better too.
>>57056264He’s playing Mewtwo though. It’s hard to fundamentally change how someone plays the game with one post on a taiwanese finger painting forum so I kept it deck-specific. Ironically there’s been other players asking for help with Mewtwo in here in the past, it’s a good way to learn how to play the game but there’s still a steep learning curve if you want to win consistently
>>57056242promo>mankey to primeape is an okay rushdeck but it can really struggle if you don't go second or pull primeape early. I've had alright success using primeape+marowak
I LOVE Alakazam x Greninja. This is just so much fun.
>>57056279ironically normal zapdos sucks against pika ex decks because fullbench pika still one shots it. I personally prefer ex zapdos and electrode as ex zapdos can tank at least one circle circuit and electrode switches for free
>>57056144"Was" is the keyword.
>>57056302Fair point. Hard to tell who’s stirring up shit and who’s genuine who browsing the basket weaving forum. For what it’s worth, the advice is solid. Always think several turns in advance. Know how many copies of a card you have. Consider the odds of drawing that 1 (or 2) out of the remaining # in the deck.
>>57056290>The good thing about Pika isthat you just need 2 cards to make it work. you can then cobble up any basic lightning shitters you have sitting around and your choice of available trainer cars and you're good to go.anything beyond the 2 ex rats just helps with consistency, meanwhile every other deck requires more cards to simply exist.
>>57056279The non ex birds are actually way too strong. One retreat on a 100 HP pair of butt cheeks is so good for stalling. In the same regard, I've seen people using baby Mewtwo in the same fashion, as a 120hp tank that somehow has 2 retreat.And in terms of zapdos in Pikachu, it has 100% come up where I get energy on zapdos and they can't deal with the 100 damage guaranteed electric attack. The other two birds might not be as good in this regard, but baby articuno has misty a least and para chance out of nowhere can't be scoffed at.
>>57056290>I think it's more 50/50 against them.You could be right, I haven't crunched the numbers so I don't know. I also don't play Mewtwo/Charizard so I don't know how consistently they are to play, I'm just basing it on what I've seen when I've played against them. It just feels like Pika's opening is more flexible than theirs (missing Moltres, missing Kirlia), but I can't say. >>57056293>Weird how you guys all assume a Pika deck can draw whatever and win, while also assuming the other decks will brick.I'm just basing that off Pika needing just basics to power up, you don't need any stage 2s (you can go Electrode/Magneton/Raichu but they aren't required like Gard/Arcanine/Charizard/etc). So if you run at least 8 basics it feels like you usually pull what you need by turn 2/3, and pokeballs/Oak seem to help you a lot more than other decks. Again, Im half-talking out of my ass, I don't play those other decks so I'm just basing this on my experience playing Pika and against those.
>>57056293bricking isn't impossible with a pika deck, but when you're running almost entirely basics and that's what the gameplan revolves around, your all but guaranteed to get a useful pokemon online since you can easily tutor for the thing you need. Decks that need stage 2 mons are much more likely to brick compared to the high damage, low energy cost basics that comprise a pika deck
>>57056324In theory loading up on basics should lower their chances to open with Pikachu Ex, but in practice it never does.
>>57056327>high damage, low energy cost basicsWho? You’re only describing Pika, itself, and that card isn’t swinging for 90 by turn 4 every game.
>>57056337it's not even that, it's that your other basics can pick up the slack if it doesn't come up>ex zap averages 100 damage on a 3 energy attack>zebstrika punish retreats and kill forcing the opponent to waste potions or sabrinas>pincurchin can force paralysis coinflips to give you more time to look for pika
>>57056346>57056346I'd argue zapdos ex averaging for 100 on a 3 energy attack is pretty good. outside of zapdos, every electric type attacks with only 1-2 energy so they generally get started faster.
>>57056337>in practiceIn other words, you’re remembering your negative experiences and are biased by them. Same as me, really kek. I would guess that Pika is ready to go by turn 6/7 at least 50%, but it’s not as if the opponent is helpless (tanks, x speed, potions, sabrina, fast pokes). That’s my experience with running 7 basics, at least.
>>57056291
>>57056327Pika also gets more weapons by virtue of just needing to fill the bench, like people are saying with Zebstrika (1 energy damage, 1 energy retreat), Electrode (no retreat cost), and all the other options. They seem to just add utility to how you can scramble against what your opponents are giving. Moltres does something similar for Charizard but its needed for the deck to actually function, same as Gard, so I feel like they're less flexible.
Dragonitebros I did it.
>>57056307Show deck
pokeball shouldn't tutor ex basics, ex mons should get their own ball variants instead...
>>57056372>Dragonite meteor smashing climbersI can taste the salt from here
>>57056354>zapdos exIt’s a better marowak, so that’s…decent. You never want to rely on it, and if you invest the energy, you better pray he doesn’t fuck it up. Roll a nice 0 on turn 6, lose your Zapdos on turn 7, and now you have no energy and are down two points.>zebDecent. Doesn’t really hit hard unless it’s water. The pokes are most relevant vs pikachu. Loses hard to Mewtwo. Zeb swings (ideally) on turn 3. Mewtwo immediately puts Zeb within knockout range on turn 4. >pincurchinTwo cost attack. Coin flip. The guy can absolutely steal games, but he needs to have an energy ready before swapping in. You have nothing to worry about until turn 4 at the earliest.
where the miniset spoilers at
This is how it feels, you fucking rat.
>>57056375I agree, it would help make non-ex mons more relevant if pulling ex's wasn't so consistent.

>>57055990>>57055985It's will be separateGenetic Apex is A1, Promo-A is P-A and the miniset A1a
>>57056324>I also don't play Mewtwo/Charizard so I don't know how consistently they are to play, I'm just basing it on what I've seen when I've played against them.I have every deck except Misty (missing 1 Articuno) and in my experience, it's pretty much all 50/50 unless you have type advantage. They can brick just as easily as you can. Pika in theory should be more difficult to brick since all your threats are basic, and your late game finisher is a stage 1, but in practice it's just as subject to bricking as all the other decks are. Keep in mind that Pikachu "bricking" can also be Mewtwo getting Gardevoir on curve, or Charizard coinflipping into "early" Charizard/Arcanine.
Pikachu's more consistent now but that's in part because you've got a searcher that has a decent chance of just handing you the card you need. That's an advantage none of the other decks really have as much.
>>57056393Here's your leak, SHE'S IN
>>57056445your opponent getting what they need early is not the same thing as "bricking". Even in scenario's where a mewtwo deck or arcazard deck gets their main online as fast as possible, it's still much easier for a pika deck to get two pika's or a pika+raichu/zapdos/whatever online faster then the opponent can get a second mewtwo/charizard. So even if your talking the ideal scenario for both decks, pika still comes out on top.
6 special shop tokens nowjust burned 3 meowths, 2 squirtles and 1 charmander(1 stars) for tokens
>>57056455yo i dont think this is a real card
>>57056462>So even if your talking the ideal scenario for both decks, pika still comes out on top.No. Mewtwo and Charizard both win as soon as they are online, and Arcanine wins against Pikachu as soon as it's online. Pikachu only wins if it's online early and/or the opponent bricks. If the opponent has the god draw, Pikachu loses. It's all 50/50 without type advantage. Moltres still takes 2 turns as Pikachu to get through, and that's long enough to get Charizard or Arcanine online.
>he still didn't win 5 times in a row Bros?? 5 days left
>>57056462>it's still much easier for a pika deck to get two pika's or a pika+raichu/zapdos/whatever online fasterStop talking out of your ass lmao. Easier to get a Pika online? I wouldn’t disagree. Two? A Pika and a Zap? Fucking lmao. That’s turn 8 and 9, respectively. You won’t have an endgame on board by fucking turn 9? LMAOAlso what the fuck is in your hand, faggot? Those sabrina? Use them. Potions? Use them. I like you the opponent is always bent over getting railed in your mind.>>57056452Pretty much. It’s a strength of the deck.
>lazy, set auto battle to on for more venusaur event battles with my dire deck>watch the AI from time to time by glancing over>catch it making absolutely retarded plays and losing
>彼女はまだ5回連続で勝てていない
>conceded to someone with the silver medal>give them a friend request to stalk profile>they always upgrade to the gold medal afterwardsfeels good man
>>57056494ANon you can see in your image they won 5 in a row.
>>57056470>they don't win as soon as they're online because your second pika/zap/whatever comes in and revenge kills them, and it's very unlikely that you got a second stage 2 up with the energy to kill a second mon. If you're running 6 basics, two of them pika ex, you'll have it in your hand immediately 1/3 of the time and 2 pokeballs gives you very high odds of tutoring it if you didn't start with it. >Moltres still takes 2 turns as Pikachu to get through, and that's long enough to get Charizard or Arcanine online.this is a very unlikely, highly idealized scenario. You need to not only start with moltres and charmander, you need to flip good coins, AND you still need to pull your stage 1 and 2 for it to actually matter. the opponent will be much more likely to start with or quickly get pika on the board, will get it online in two turns, and god help you if they have sabrina as your moltres meat shield is now worthless. Pika is much more likely to get pulled, gets online faster, and is much less likely to brick compared to charizard man, it's just math.
>>57056511>this is a very unlikely, highly idealized scenarioIt's as likely a scenario as anything else, and you said:>"even if your talking the ideal scenario for both decks, pika still comes out on top."
>>57056488pika ex only needs 2 energy and some backline shit to get online, only starmie compares to that speed and it still needs to evolve. I don't get your point, there isn't a deck that works faster, that's part of why it's the best deck in the game.
>>57056421kingler + greninja got me the 5 win streakall hail KINGler
>>57056144I quit after losing my fifth match. Running Starmie but my fifth match somehow had me drawing all my supporter and basic Pokemon and none of my evolved. So the opponent's Mewtwo demolished me.
>>57056521because even in this idealized scenario, if pika gets online as fast as possible, and charizard gets online as fast as possible, then what happens is pika hits charizard for half health, then revenge kills with the second pika. the hyper idealized scenario of getting two charizards up at once so you can kill the second pika with moltres flipping 3 heads everytime is lottery winner levels of lucky, you aren't going to see that happen almost ever.
>>57056539>then what happens is pika hits charizard for half health, then revenge kills with the second pikaNo, Pikachu hits Moltres for half health or kills Moltres. If Pikachu doesn't kill Moltres, then Moltres gets switched out and Charizard kills Pikachu, takes the revenge hit, and kills whatever comes out next. You obviously don't play both decks.
>>57056522Point is that speed isn’t everything, and the deck still isn’t more consistent than 50-60% in terms of getting a Pika ready to swing for 90 by turn 5 / 6. Plenty of decks are bulky enough to play around this, assuming Pika comes online to begin with. Right now, Pika is just a better Blaine deck. If you’ve played Blaine and haven’t played Pika, imagine Blaine gets clogged up with basics that require you to consider more options / outcomes and some of your key components now give the opponent 2 points. You now understand Pika. Not saying the deck is bad. Not saying it isn’t a contender for top deck. Not even saying it isn’t the top deck. It just isn’t much better than M2, if at all. It’s not *that* much better than Zard.
I'm surprised that Gengar and exeggutor have EX versions but gyarados or the nidos don't
I hope this was his 4th match kek
>>57056550The true weakness of Blaine deck is that Ninetales has low HP. Pikachu may give 2 points but it isn't as likely to get killed
>>57056542I do, but it's clearly pointless in arguing with you. you could run the numbers yourself and see how often you pull your optimal starts with these decks and how often you end up winning. Or just look at the results of any recent tournament
>>57056564Rapidash dies to 90+10 from Pikachu Giovanni too.
>>57056565>but it's clearly pointless in arguing with youOnly because you're trying to argue that Pika is 60/40 with Mewtwo/Charizard when it's all just coinflips without type advantage.
>>57056522Moltres arcanine
>>57056557I think it's safe to assume a Gyarados EX is coming eventually, just unclear how soon. Nido's desperately need one to be relevant and I'm afraid they probably won't get one due to being way less popular. It would be nice if Dena would patch and change cards, it would be easy to make nidoqueen more relevant by letting her ability work with any nidoran male evo on the back line, or having call for family pull later evo cards
>>57056563Is Mewtwo really the best tank for this? I've seen it multiple times now
>>57056579Red Gyarados Ex kino incoming in the Johto set.
>>57056564True, but 120 hp is quite low for a card that gives two points. It becomes a liability pretty quickly if you aren’t lucky / positioning carefully. Very much a better card than ninetales, but that was the easiest comparison I could think of.
>>57056576moltres arcanine averages 3 energy in 2 turns, true, but it requires you get moltres immediately and is less consistent than pika ex which will always get online in 2 turns
>>57056574And Pikachu dies to Ninetails Blaine ironically.
>>57056602prof oak poke ball
>>57056595I want an immersive lake of rage gyarados card so badly
>>57056602Right, and PikaEx doesn't require you to draw it early.
>>57056587120 HP and 2 retreat makes him so while you build up your Dragonite.
>>57056607the problem is that you need one of each for that deck while pika only needs 1 pika and whatever else to work. So getting started with 2 moltres or 2 growlithe leaves you stuck. pokeballs won't auto get you your arcanine, but pika has great odds of getting found by pokeball.
>>57056602What weird universe do you live in where Pikachu is always online and ever other deck is constantly bricking?
>>57056615I don't know how much more clearly I can explain your odds of drawing pika early are much better. >>57056625what part of "more likely" or "less likely" do you not understand? how is everyone on this board so fucking bad at math and odds?
>>57056579I'm not a super pro but nidoking dealing 100, 90 + 10 poison for 3 energies seems a fairy trade, maybe his EX version could be the same as pikachu EX and gettin more power for each dark on the field
are all of u guys actively collecting pokemon and then starated this game or did u start collecting after starting or do u not care about cardboard cuts
>>57056629>I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I'm going to keep doing itOkay then. You should have said that the first time.
>>57056629>pika ex which will always get online in 2 turnsBruh the odds are better, but making exaggerated claims doesn't help your case.
>>57056576>moltres arcanineevery moltres deck that I have came across this event has bricked against me lol. its pretty nuts. I probably would have gotten my 5 wins by now if I wasn't playing 2x memeticuno thanks to them
>>57056641I have some cards but haven't collected any since the '90s.However, I did spend one whole Canadian dollar on one of those Pokechest card vending machines out of curiosity and got an Emolga that shines.

>>57056641bruhhow do iget a gflike this
>>57056629Show your work, anon. Doesn’t seem that much more difficult to get a Moltres and a basic on the bench than it does a Pika (in active) + full bench. If the argument is that it is harder to build up a stage 2, then I don’t think anyone is going to disagree. But considering the game gives you one of the 4 basics you’re running (Moltres / Charmander / Growlithe) and pokeball / research are floating around, it’s really not that uncommon for a turn two moltres flip to be feeding something. Works just fine in the decks where I run 4 basics.
>>57056664>funBut is it good? How can any deck run two stage 2 pokemon?
>>57056668take enough psychedelics to turn yourself schizophrenic
>>57056666I meant the pvp ones megasatan I don't even have mew
>>57056641>u not care about cardboard cutsthisno point in cardboard if there is no one to show off to
>>57056641Collected cards back in the day but got tired of the money sink. Pocket gives me the same experience, plus battling, plus the crack adrenaline of opening packs. Honestly they did an excellent job with the UI, moving the packs around and ripping them feels fantastic. Cant wait for Johto/Hoenn
>>57056666That gives icons not emblems.
Whats a playable gyarados deck? 100 damage only? What the fuck man he gets outdamaged by a ninetails
>guy finally gets marowak ex out>tails tails>tails tails>concedesThe house ALWAYS wins, my friend
Just finish this shit event, Fuck Mewtwo EX, Articuno EX, Starmie EX and Pikachu EX to the deepest darkest parts of hell
>>57056641I started playing the game and then started collecting after I built like 10 decks
do you guys use the event hourglasses (blue) or save them
>>57056684*finished
>>57056691Why the hell would you save them? Do they carry over to other events?
>>57056684
>Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Second Genetic Apex Emblem Event Is “Objectively Bad”>It may not seem much, but with RNG so prevalent in the game's meta, a single coin flip can cost players the match and, therefore, their streak.It's this element of RNG that has caused disdain within the Pokemon TCG Pocket community, with a thread on the game's unofficial subreddit notching up almost 600 comments in less than 24 hours.>JTexpo suggested that it should be "Win 5 battles before losing two," to account for RNG, an idea which was praised for being closer to the real Pokemon TCG's League Cup, while Deethreekay suggested an accumulation of five points would be the best call, where a win gave a point and a loss deducted one. kek they're salty
>>57056696i dont know, thats what i want to know too to be honest
>>57056697After this event, I love these two even more now, they fucked every single meta deck I came across.
>>57056670it has worked for me, in the case of greninja it is super cheap good damage, alakazam only really needs 1 psychic energy to work. This same theory can be applied to Alakazam + Exeggutor, Victreebel and other cheap multiple stage leads. Alakazam is a tempo focused deck, if you can control it, you can control the game
>>57056641I used to open booster boxes but I didn't start playing the card game until this app.
>>57056700I'm gonna guess no. Usually these types of items are only good for the current event.
I got my 5 day 1Now I just fight to roadblock othersI'm sorta like a gym leader hehYou gotta defeat me to earn it chump
Whats the reward for winning 5 matches? I get its a scummy event, but you arent missing out on actual valuable shit. If you want jewish gacha games just look at uma musume, fgo and and mihoyo trash
>>57056696>Do they carry over to other events?Yes. Left over event glass from Lapras was available for Venusaur.>>57056691I was going to save them but I realized 4 event glass for 4 wonder glass is a good exchange.I'm started doing the 5 wins advanced mission and I'm going to crack one event glass on expert every time I miss a card drop. so far I haven't missed
>>57056666>one of every diamond cardEasily achievable for a day one player who used the premium trial and spend pack points on commons for mewCould even have like 100+ pack hourglasses left like that
>>57056684Post list
>>57056651One of the many times I was at 4 wins, I played Moltres for my 5th. I started with Moltres and A growlith. Landed 3 heads and got 3 energy on my growlith instantly. Game completely over right?Never saw my Arcanines.
>>57056704I found greninja too much stage 2 mixing. I preferred tentacruel, though a lot of people still can't wrap their head around alakazam two colorless energy giving him multiple flexibility
>>570567095 wins = 200 dust>>57056151
>Add five different confirmed godpacks>Never pop in queue>Rando shows up with a 20% gay moltres>Instaget itSwear half my usables come from this stupid mechanic, yet the only non-common card I've FTP'ed from the last fourty packs have been my fourth, fifth and sixth wiggly EX
>got up to 100 hour glasses>happy to wait for the mini set>not even tempted to spend them now because all I'll get is dupeshow do people even get gambling addictions on these games, this is easy lmao
I hope they ban 2nd turn KO cards, but I know they don't consider this a serious gameStill more fun than the main TCG though
>>57056708Good work anon. Its basically an elite four + champion challenge, give them a good themed battle and make them earn it
>>57056723See? Who the fuck cares about flair. No one should be sweating over this. If they hid 100 hourglasses behind this event then yeah that would be terrible, but they aren’t. They are rewarding people with arbitrary things, which is fine for people who are really into pocket.
>>57056708
>>57056734I'm saving mine for the full expansion in Jan. I think I'll be fine grabbing the mini cards with daily packs. I agree though, feels easy to tuck them away and forget about them. Luckily we've had a ton of events so it feels like you're collecting enough without using them.
>>57056641This is what I play when I am losing in ptcgl Pocket kinda sucks but the cards are pretty
>>57056707There's nothing in the event hourglass description to suggest they expire once the event ends. I didn't use any in the Lapras EX event and I haven't used any in this current event and I'm sitting at 27.
>>57056682The best Gyarados lists I could find on Limitless were using Gyarados as a Snorlax you can Misty. Snorlax is fucking awful so you can imagine the winrate inconsistent Snorlax brings to the table.
>>57056734I've been saving my hourglasses for just about a month now and I'm at 223. Still waiting for those new cards to be released.And that's on top of the fact that the second I started saving hourglasses, my draw luck fucking sucks. I haven't pulled anything amazing in weeks. WEEKS!
>still no Venusaur>still no Magnemite >never got promo Meowth
>>57056708 yeah, a gym leader that doesn't go to any gym, kek
>>57056772this is why you should be allowed to spend the event currency to buy promo cards. hopefully we're allowed to trade for promos so you can get those you missed.
>>57056772I have almost all the cards except for 1 jigglypuff, which is extremely infuriating as it's an actual different cardI don't give a shit about pretty venusaur or greninja, just give me a playset of promo jigglypuff
>>57056734Im like at 200-300 hourglasses I think. but Ive been doing a lot of wonder picking recently so Im empty on that resource
>>570567132 Ekans2 Arboks2 Koffings2 Weezing1 Grimer1 Muk2 Sabrina's 2 Kogas2 potions2 prof oaks2 pokeballs
>>57056772I don't have the bulbasuar promo but I got 2 each of the others. I want more Venusaur.
broshow do we make nidoking work
>>57056798rare candy
>>57056794basedhaving a grimer and muk also helped win gamesidk why, maybe people start making hasty and panicky decisions when they see mul enter the field
>>57056717Tentacruel is underrated, I like Greninja because it can help deal with 100 HP barriers easier but Tentacruel is also cool, wish it didn't had such abyssmal drop rate lol
>>57056798Nidoking Weezing is as close as it gets to decent.
>>57056809I have 5 bro you can have em
>>57056798>how do we make nidoking worknidoking weezing. or nidoking arbok. or nidoking muk. or nidoking wigglytuff ex
>>57055481I'm proud to see my post live on, thank you!
>>57055925I only see pika while running pika
>>57056798Nidoking ex + Sneasel
>>57056809Tentacruel is a 110 hp pokemon with a 60 damage attack, then if the opponent stays in for the next attack technically does 70 damage with all poison ticks.130 damage on a tanky stage1 is insane and knocks out so many pokemon. I think people are waking up to it because in this winstreak event i started seeing tentacruel / starmie EX mixes...
>>57056818I can't see nidoking muk ever working. They both take too much energy and you'd be stuck as grimer or muk that can't attack or maybe as a nidorino most of the time
>>57056798Seems fundamentally incompatible with a game where the aim is to play like 4 pokemon in a deck with as few evolutions as possible
>>57056826I've tried the schizo deck lists like Greninja with Mewtwo ex and then I start getting mirror watches with a deck I've never otherwise seen in game. Then I tweak the deck and have Farfetch'd and I'm getting Greninja and Farfetch'd and Mewtwo ex mirror matches. The matchmaking algorithm becomes incredibly apparent if someone would only play more unconventional decks
>>57056837I wanted to use him a for a while but I never get any tentacools
>>57056771Are you premium?
>>57056840Yeah you can see it more clearly the more decks and variations of those decks you try
>>57056837make no mistake, tentacruel greninja is ultra nasty
>>57056807Yep for the most part I had Muk silently on the Bench building up ready to strike
am I coping if I'm starting to think that centiskorch is one of the best moltres targets? even comparing it to arcanine ex it feels like it holds its own>effectively same hp after arcanine hits once>one more energy for +10 dmg with no recoil, letting you ohko zap and starmie without giovanni and exeggutor, articuno, marowak and wiggly with giovanni>1 less prize, though admittedly it's difficult to make it count in a fire deck since you'd need another good nonex attacker
>>57056849Yeah, for sure. Melmetal deck with two Mawiles and a Farfetch'd? Other randos. Melmetal deck with a Weezing & Koga combo? Articunos as far as the eye can see.
so what does getting multiple copies do again? i know it creates "flair" but i don't get it. like if i like this venasaur promo card how many copies should i aim for
>>57056898lmao
>>57056872No. My first moltres Deck was Arcanine/centiskorch. Centiskorch is effectively bulkier as it doesn't lose health while attacking and it does deal more damage. I wouldn't say either is a straight upgrade over the other. There are pros and cons to both. One of the drawbacks is of course you need to keep applying energy to centiskorch. What that really means is that once it's out you can't develop another threat as all of your energy per turn will have to feed the centiskorch.Also another huge difference is that arcanine can be out a turn sooner, and once he's out, you can start feeding energy to a back up threat.
>>57056838
>>57056908 menat for >>57056798
>>57056899Just get as many as you can they're free cards that you can potentially use as trade fodder for people joining the game late and missing out
Mission failed kinda
Doesnt rare candy just make zard and mewtwo more broken?
Aren't these supposed to expire after 30 minutes?
>>57056915true true.. but like i don't want to waste the stamina potions
>>57056845>Are you premium?Nope. Not spending money on digital cards that will one day disappear.
>>57056918Gyarados full art is so fucking cool I wish he was actually good
>>57056872Centiskorch is a great budget replacement for Charizard.
>>57056872>>57056907centiskorch is very much underrated
>>57056924>Stamina Potions
>finally got lucky and got to 4 wins with Venusaur (first run of this deck)>Exeggutor flipped tails literally every single time, but I still beat 4 Mewtwos>up against Misty for game 5>could have won the game 3 different times if Exeggutor just flipped heads>it flipped tails every single time>(only flipped heads one single time the entire 5 games)I'm going to kill myself.
>>57056899>so what does getting multiple copies do again?Flair. Future trading.
Will we get it in the mini set? Will it have any effect on the meta?
>>57056952We'll get it eventually. (or we'll get poison heal, sleep heal and paralyze heal) No idea what the sets will contain (yet).
>>57056938>gamblers when the gamble isn't in their favor (they gambled their entire life savings)
>>57056924The dust will be most likely used for trades, so save those extra copies and dust for that.The stamina timers already have a specific use.
>>57056961It's all just coinflips anyway, anon. This was my best run. Previously I've gotten only 3 with Mewtwo, Pikachu, Charizard.
why does Erika's card sleeves and coin cost real money and no special shop tickets?
>>57055498This pikachu shit is legit killing my enjoyment of this game lol.The second I see an electric type, my urge to just concede skyrockets.

How to f2ps get more gold?
>>57056899>like if i like this venasaur promo card how many copies should i aim forDepends on what you want. These are the 4 flairs you can put on promo Venusaur.You need at least 3 copies of a card before you can buy flairs (you can't spend the first 2). You have to buy the flairs one-at-a-time to unlock successive flairs in the shop.So if you want 2 of the first flair you need 4 copies (2 to wear the flairs and 2 to buy them),if you want 2 of the second flair you need 5 copies (2 to wear, 1 to unlock, 2 to buy),if you want 2 of the third flair you need 6 copies (2 to wear, 2 to unlock, 2 to buy),and if you want 2 of the fourth flair you need 7 copies (2 to wear, 3 to unlock, 2 to buy).Note that the flairs ARE NOT NECESSARILY IN THE ORDER SHOWN IN MY PICTURE.They could be in the order 1-2-3-4, 1-3-4-2, or 1-4-2-3. It's a random order but it's the same random order for every card on your account.Most full art cards (not the promo Venusaur) start with all flairs unlocked for purchase but the order is still "randomized".You can take advantage of this to find out what order your Venusaur flairs will unlock in (to know how many copies you'll need).https://ptcgp.raenonx.cc/en/flair/listOne final note: all the promo Venusaur flairs are animations, none of them are decals.Animations are only visible in battle and you can't run more than 2 copies of a card in your deck so there is no point in buying more than 2 copies of an animation.(e.g. you could buy more than 2 copies of a decal to show them off in a binder.)

>>57057047You simply don’t understand the power of healing 160 hp in a single turn lol
>3 winsBros I'm scared
got my 5 wins with mewoth and machamp, this deck is good. Any reason why people dont use him more? One shot pikachuds and its not bad against mewtwo
>>57057048>trannyStop letting them steal the cotton candy color scheme retard. Iono is one of the few good character designs in S&V
>>57057050>2 butterfrees (40 hp)>2 potions (40 hp)>1 erika (50 hp)>1 venu with 4 energy (30 hp)If you magicked into all of these cards, you probably won anyway, no matter what you did. What is the opponent doing while you got 3 different stage 2s online and gave 4 energy to venusaur?
>>57057012She has the best Halloween outfit in FEH.
>>57057039>>this event>>do not thank anyone, even when I winYou do thank auto-concessions, right?
>>57057012Based
>>57057063>You do thank auto-concessions, right?I would if I ever encountered one. I might even friend them.
Can you get two EXes in one pack if its not a god pack?
>>57057072No but you can get 2 FA
>>57057072yes
>>57057059They were damaging the venu you tard. This the reason to have to heal. Just try it out, it’s based
>>57057084I'm usually not lucky enough to even get one stage 2 online in any given game. Unironically, Exeggutor alone has gotten me all of my wins with this deck, even flipping tails the entire game. Venusaur seems like the weak point. He doesn't even do anything most of the time.
>>57057072Yep, all of this is fully disclosed in game in the offering rates section
>>57056988I believe Misty but when was Erika ever popular? NeverAll those women ride the Kantoooo train
I hate this mission so much
>>57057095Ok cool, so there's no reason not to wait for wonderpicks with at least 2 EXes in them.

I hope you guys are excited to spend 1000 dust to wonder trade for a pidgey.
>>57057151What are you talking about
>>57057156Trading will be wonder trade and it will cost dust
>>57057159What is dust?
Hi all, I played the current event with Dragonite X Eeveelutions, and autisticly tracked my results.It took me 85 battles, of which I won 36.Four wins were from instance concedes.Six losses were due to an obvious misplay on my part.None of those slowed my quest for five wins, thankfully.Thus, if I adjust my record accordingly, 38/81 is only just shy of 50%, not bad for a deck not considered meta.Other notes: Holy shit stage 2 decks need some evolution support. I lost at least 7-8 games solely due to pulling not a single stage 1 (Jolteon/Vaporeon/Dragonair).17 games vs. standard Pikachu decks, of which I only won 6.There was also a unique attempt at Pikachu + Pidgeot which obviously doesn't work because it limits the rat to 60 damage. I won that one easy.Other meta deck performance:10 Mewtwo/Garde fights, it looks like I only won twice, oof.Vs. Misty ex decks (using at least one of either Starmie or Articuno):12 battles, won 5Of 7 Koga Battles, won 38 Moltres ex decks, won 4My favorite rogue deck (and I lost to it) was one using Mienshao and Golbat to swing for 40 damage with 1 energy with super effective vs. the meta decks.I thought it was cute, and I got wrecked for lack of any stage 1s that match.Overall:Pikachu and Mewtwo are the devil, but I still win sometimes.If Dragonite wants to actually be viable vs. those meta decks, it'll need evo support and energy acceleration.Oh, I also got screwed a few times with 7x of either water or lightning energy in a row.
>>57057012>>57057066>>57057134This girl is too hot for her own good.
>>57056372>Bad Dr@gon
>>57057117>but when was Erika ever popular?You wouldn't notice it on a global scale. She's more popular within Japan, and Pocket is a Japan-based game. The same company also pandered around Erika for their previous Pokemon gacha game.
>>57056794I build this deck and immediately won 5 times in a rowThanks anon
>>57057167Supporter Proposals:>Wally>Choose a card from your deck at random that evolves from your active Pokémon and evolve it.>Lance>Attach up to two energy of your choice from your discard pile to your active Dragon-type PokémonIt wouldn't help you set up at the beginning, but would allow you to come back after an unfortunate KO, and ease up a bit with managing energy types.
>>57057117I forgot the term for it but basically chicks like Erika that wear a kimono are super popular in Japan. Misty (her anime iteration especially) was more popular globally I would say
>>57057167Sorry, forgot to list my final streak of 5:>Gengar ex/ Alakazam>Blaine >Koga>Misty, Lapras, Starmie>Primape/MarowakI'll be handing out concessions until the end of the event for my daily tranny tickets.
>>57057208yamato nadeshiko
I'm happy to be done with this cancer event
>>57057117Misty isn't that popular outside of the ashnime which the TCG doesn't pander to outside of rare occasions
>>57056993Stop being poor
>>57056527It's a bullshit deck because you will never draw the Frogadiers or the cards that would actually help you draw them.
Powerful basic cards really do run this game huh. I wish more cards had more effects like in the normal tcg. I used to play in middle school but i remember most cards having a primary attack, and an alternate option.
>>57057194>The same company also pandered around Erika for their previous Pokemon gacha game.Not reallyBoth have an okay amount of alts (2) but don't get cared about muchIf anything Misty is the favourite one in Masters as they make sure you got her by inserting her in your team early
Why do some god packs never go live?
>>57057126If you do that more often than not you will be sitting around waiting with maximum stamina. At the least it is good to prioritize wonder picks with a two out of five chance of giving you something nice. The three diamond rares are the hardest to collect and will likely be the last Pokémon you need for Mew so prioritizing chasing those is smart.
>>57057248They hate you
>>57057248The working theory is that god packs are suppressed from showing up in wonder picks. And any God pack with a three star or crown are completely out of the question.
>>57057245Misty needs a new alt I am no longer asking I am threatening.
>on 4 consecutive winsguys I am too scared...
>>57057245No, the pandered one is Steven as no other character has as many alts as he does.
>>57057285>the pandered one is StevenIndeedI was only doing a comparison between Misty and Erika
>Playing Exeg ex and Beedrill>Opponent is Charizard ex deck, fuck>I win somehow without them gaining a pointWhat>Next match is Articuno ex and Lapras ex>Win again, also 3-0WHAT?>Third match is Parasect (what) and Exegg ex>Brick, but still win 2-0 (he never got a second basic pokemon, either pokeball, or any evolutions)No way are people losing to this. No fucking way.
>>57057059when rush duel (the simpler ygo) released one of the earliest decks printed was one that won by healing a lot. You could deck out before managing to win vs it. It is the same principle here more or less.
>after 32 wins, I finally got my 5 in a row streakI fucking hated this event, even if it took less wins than the 50 win event. The fact that's it's just RNG that you may never luck into is nerve wracking.
>>57057320It’s Timmy queue but people are clearly misplaying and blaming rng or running shit like Victreebel/Butterfree/Venusaur and wondering why they can’t find their cards
>>57057007i've been running the pidgey line + melmetal line and having pretty good results.
You can only reply to this post if you've got the 5 win-streak badge.The Sandslash Marowak EX deck did it for me, and you anon?

>>57057282update: I overcame my fears AND I FUCKING DID IT GUYSfor once Misty came in incredibly clutch
>>57055562They're not bad but they're all evolutions and there's not enough healing in the game to survive pika. All the best decks have huge walls that can withstand 90 on turn 2, if you want to play grass your only choice is to draw your exeggutor, ex or otherwise.

>>57057456>Now I know to go bottom leftDoesn’t work that way. That’s just the starting position of the cards. I picked top middle and got Koga.
>>57057461Thanks for the list
>>57057441>>57057458I don't see why you wouldn't just run it psychic type, weezing works as a good stall tank and even lets you poison for free. You won't be retreating him without koga most of the time anyway, might as well maximize energy building for mewtwo+gengar since you don't have gard to pick up the slack
>>57057341Charizard/Arcanine, Moltres is the most consistent and simple card to use in the entire game.

>>57057482get fucked whale. on the plus side you pay pigged your hundreds into being able to buy 1 (one) of them kek
>>57057485Cute!
>>57057482Imagine not owning two full art BrockFuck this kusoge. The card is barely playable, give me commons instead dumbasses.
I let this AI play for one game, and instead of building up the ninetales it stacked 5 energies on a rapidash.
>>57057503Trade fodder. Trust the plan. There's guaranteed to be Brockfags that want what you have
I removed every friend I had that couldn't get the 5 streak badge on day 1. If they can't even get it quickly, they'll have shit wonderpicks anyway.
>>57057503>brocktrust the plan
>>57057510prease understand
>>57057485pomf =3What are we gonna do on the playmat?
>>57057522
>use pikachu >get 3 (!!!!) heads in 12 coinflips with zapdos>switch to mewtwo>both kirilias are at the bottom of the deckthis game fucking HATES me
>>57057522Your loss. I have it and I'm not wearing it. That shit is ugly.

>>57057482
>>57057376>>57057382What's his FC?
>>57057439this >>57057351I rotated through all the meta decks. Mewtwo then Pika then Charizard then Misty then some random jank, then I realized I had 2 Venusaurs and 2 Exeggutors, I had to buy an Exeggcute, got a 4 win streak with Vena but Vena wasn't doing anything for me, so I switched to Wiggly but I only have 1 Wiggly. This seemed to finally put me in the shitter queue. I played 2 Charizards that bricked, 1 Misty that bricked, and 2 random piles, like one was a psychic electric deck that ran Snorlax and Eevee/Jolteon and Pikachu EX. I never saw such jank until I queued with this deck.
>play incomplete 1 ex machad deck>win 4 straight>against M2 meta deck in the fifthThe system just couldn't afford to see me rise
>>57057245Erika has one of the first limited alts in Masters, i.e. monetizationMisty has been free
Well just realized there are cosmetic and battle only flairz
I have two complete decks and they're mewtwo and pikachu lolI just wanted to play annoying bullshit like wigglytuff and koga but the cards aren't falling that way
>>57057589>>57057589>>57057589
>>57057482Simply a skill issue
>>57057580I was wondering what alt you were talking about I completely forgot she got a Christmas alt. Aside from that the two are essentially the same when it comes to alts. If anyone has been getting treated well among the three I'd say it's Sabrina
>>57057594Fuck you
>>57057583The decals work in showcases and in decks. The animations only work in decks.
>>57057605Hard disagree just because her alts came way later, they left her out for so long
>>57057522Kek, based
>>57057594>3 waifus and rainbow moltresThe God pack to end all God packs. Only way it could've been better was if that Blaine was something else.
>>57057594fc?
>>57057644Not him but that's an old pic
>>57055983>cloyster Literally a worse dewgong
im at 168 wins, wbu?
>>57057662221… git gud loser
Does Mewtwo deck need two copies of his EX card?
>>57056798Start second and evolve on the curve.
Always cute when the algorithm gets hung up on something strange. Two Onix Machamp ex decks in a row
>>57057736No, even as one it's one of the best cards in the game. But two is better
>>57057662You've got some catching up to do
>>57057736Yes, and not just for consistency. It's not uncommon to retreat an injured Mewtwo ex for a fresh one. Gardevoir supplies enough energy to get away with that.
>>57057341Blaine with kang to shit on pika
>>57057868Blaine doesn't shit on Pika. At best Blaine has a 50-50 matchup with Pika ex. Ninetails with Blaine can one shot Pika ex, yes, but Pika ex with full bench one shots Ninetails, with Giovanni one shots Rapidash (and the Kanga you mentioned), regular Zapdos one shots Ninetales and Rapidash, Raichu one shots Ninetales and Rapidash, and Zapdos ex has a 68.75% chance of flipping two or more heads with each attack to one shot Ninetails or Rapidash. Not so cut and dry is it?
>>57057341Monkey Trouble
>>57057904All that takes good draws to set up for pika.Blaine is much better paced and with Kang will more often than 50% of the time disrupt the average pika virgin.
>>57057480because gengar does 50 damagei need to get one knock out so that m2 can knock out an ex for the last 2 points
>>57057939>All that takes good draws to set up for pika.I did the entire event as Blaine and I can't even count the games I played during this event where I had to use my low retreat costs and low point payouts to stall until I drew into a gameplan. Every deck needs good draws so they can set up.Pikachu was my WORST matchup in the event and the only reason I was able to get 5 wins as Blaine is because half the people running Pikachu are mouth breathers. Pikachu hasn't cornered the mouth breathers, they were piloting every deck, but it really mattered against Pikachu.
>>57057939Proof? Because I can link you to tournament standings that show that no Blaine competitor has an over 50% win rate against Pikachu ex decks.
If I can't win this stupid streak medal before the event ends, I'm going to punish myself by buying a bad dragon to fuck myself with.
>>57057995Good girl
