I love my cute wife Whitney! Love her love her LOVE HER!
And here is my cute wife Whitney on the chart!I've been really loving my cute wife's EX colors. It makes her look cute and cool! I also gave her a pair of my sunglasses to match her shirt. So adorable!

>Can't get the 500 Gems without picking up Zinnia's EX RoleNot worth it
Are all the legendary sync pairs viable? I've never done any of them but now with the new event I want to do them
>Kyurem role is to reduce Speed in Aoe>Support EX Role instead of StrikeFuck you
Wait so will next month cycle out for new gym units or will it be the same ones again? I forget how many months it's been since these ones were added.
>>58228319This is the 3rd month of Gym C i believe.
>>58228319>I forget how many months it's been since these ones were added.Sadly, it's an unknowable number with now way to checkGym A 2025-01-29Gym B 2025-05-01Gym C 2025-08-01
>>58228291Xerneas is probably the best and you replace it pretty fast with other supports.
>>58228291Sycamore & Hop are the best ones. Giovanni is good but frail, Silver is solid but you probably have better Fire options, Zinnia is cheeks, Cyrus Hydro Pump used to be insane for F2P but he’s still a decent option, Ghetsis is a great debuffer with status, & Solgaleo is fine but in a similar situation to Silver.
>>58228333That's reassuring. I've had awful luck with Roxie so maybe I'll have a chance next month.
This anni was pretty generous so decided to use only new units I pulled within less than a month + wife.
It was about a week ago that I realized Carmine screwed me up on Tera. Because hers was 1/1 use, I assumed for a while that ALL Tera was 1 use just like Max Moves are.>>58228291Agree with >>58228338 but a quick summary:>Zamazenta boosts Atk/Def/Crit for all and has healing>Solgaleo can ignore damage walls like Reflect or need-status passives, but is a gauge hog>Xerneas needs to sync, but it maxes Spd/SpAtk/SpDef for all. Self heal, but outpaced by current fights now>Palkia gets good damage with crits and secondary Water attack, but hurts self to boost>Kyurem is a big gauge hog but can freeze all opponents while dropping speed. Can alternatively use for debuffing opponent offense>Zinnia is hot and has big boobs. Her Rayquaza is paper.>Ho-oh can set sun every sync. That's it, otherwise pretty useless>Mewtwo can hit decently hard, a bit flimsy, can get rolling with SpDef down that increase damage multiplier passives

>>58227878How come we're getting consistant drought weeks nowadays?
>>58228389Less events means less gems
>>58228389So you are saying you want more banners pushing more units at the same time?Because we do have plenty of stamina sinks as is
>>58227369As others said, this is basically the in-game dialogue in manga format.
Why do characters interrupt themselves when getting the EX Role
>>58228414I'm pretty sure the ingame dialogue did not include sucking dicks.
>>58228843You should replay the N introduction chapter then.
>>58228849I meant literal dick sucking.
Chart
>>58228414Why isn't there an official manga adaptation? It'd help officially preserve the story once the game reaches EoS.
>>58228389DeNA has FORGOTTEN about eggmons... (again)
>>58229439Say they give eggmons one of the more modern features like Max Moves or EX Roles or such and you only have to buy them with the egg ticket things we already get. What would you want most for buffing eggmons?
>>58229520Grids nkdrxn
>>58229520All of them are still starved for grids for one thing
>Ignored Torchic when they gave the 6EX+Role to Pikachu>Same when they gave 6EX to every pair on anni>Now Solgaleo have an EX RoleTorchicsisters... are we... as dead as Ash and TRio?
>>58229554I forgot torchic existed too, maybe I can be a dev
>>58229554>anniversary featuring a trio of fire starters>charizard>typhlosion>.....cinderaceAntitorchic dev rules with an iron fist
>>58229930I think the bigger crime is that Delphox wasn't included, being from the sixth generation and all
>>58230074I'm convinced it's because something terrible will happen to the Kalos starters in ZA
>>58228389The problem is when they decided to stop rerunning villain arc events while replacing the old shop system with the points. While "generous" since the point system takes way less stamina it also means you have fuck all to spend it on. Villain arc events were great since you could farm 3* tickets. I guess it's supposed to be free time for new players to grind the training areas but after a certain point those are completely useless. They need to add something to slowly chip away at with your stamina like an event archive. They are never rerunning stories from years 4 and down especially the holidays unless Silver, Morty or N dev is steering the ship.
>>58229439At this point eggs are dead content. They tried doing something for like 2 months with the egg battles then completely gave up and never even reran an old one again. I still don't have all the shinies. Hell I don't even have all the 3 passive basic Pokémon for some of the newer events like Tentacool.
>>58227865
>>58227850I love her big ass eyebrows
>>58230316I missed seeing cute wife bonk
>>58229930Be glad Blaziken wasn't ruined by Terastal.
>>58230798What if it was cute wife being bonked? Would you like or dislike that more
>Just noticed the Paldea stories are "bonuses" and not rankedDid DeNA think these slop stories would be super popular and want to push them only for the top 10 to be completely different?
>>58231117No it's because Kieran and Carmine banners were still up and they wanted to give context without giving gems
>got all 100 tickets>summon>Duplicate Lenora and Drasna>Sygna Suit Hilda (Victini) and Sina, new trainers>nothing else...I didn't realize my luck was that shit.
>>58231164Anything with Gen Pool rates is an objective scam. Especially when they refuse to buff the 5 star percentages
>>58228291I'm significantly less positive on Kyurem. Haven't used it in a while even after it got its big upgrade, but my issues are>Glaciate doesn't do much damage>Glaciate needs accuracy buffs to be consistent>Glaciate eats a shitton of gauge so you need someone that can buff party Speed>Noble Roar is wildly ineffective at this point in the game>His Trainer Move is pretty pathetic and relies on you having taken a sizable amount of damage to get a decent boost>He's too frail to use in any tanking role, meaning you're not going to get to use his Trainer Move until late in a battle by which point you're gonna die from all the waitingSycamore is still a really solid F2P support against anything that doesn't use Steel moves. His ability to heal a chunk every sync made him good for cheesing with poison in the Champion Stadium, and he maxes the party's Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed, and also Attack when he takes hits. Horn Leech can be a powerful full heal, especially with Grassy Terrain from someone else. You just might want to cover his missing buffs though (crit, Defense).Hop needs to rely on some Trainer Move refreshes and he can get a lot of free moves in, he's decent at doing some damage, but I don't remember him ever being as good as Sycamore. He did take physical hits better though.Solgaleo is gauge-heavy and there are many better Steel options. It was literally the third Steel-type pair, released on New Year's 2020 (anyone remember rolling for Cynthia to do its Legendary Event?)Zinnia was never good from what I remember. Fifth Dragon type, but all of them mediocre even back then. She was also January 2020.Silver has some sun support and was made to synergize with base Lyra and Ethan, but they were never good, while Silver can at least do some solid sun sync nuking.I remember Cyrus being fine for Dragon (better than Zinnia), he did pretty heavy crit damage.Giovanni does good Psychic damage, but is frail and needs lots of outside stat buffs.
>>58230113I have nearly 7000 3* tickets and absolutely nothing to use them on. It's actually 4* tickets that I've been low on because of>The sheer number of basic 4* alts released>Realizing we were never getting a separate Eggdex (wasn't this something they announced way back at the beginning?) and actually using my resources to evolve and get most of my shinies up to 5/5, 5 stars, with treats>Exchanging 100 4* tickets every month to get 20 5* onesOn the brighter side, I capped out on 500 skill gear a couple months ago, so I don't exchange any 5* tickets for them. On the annoying side, my present box is filled with excess skill gear from events that I can't do anything about but wait a month. What a dumb oversight.
>>58231191The ticket has the entire mix banner pool minus mix units sharing 7%. You basically have a 5.2~% of not getting fucked over. Getting a general pool with those odds is the same as getting the actual featured unit in a regular spotlight banner but the complete opposite. It's excruciatingly painful especially if your other rolls are dead rolls.
>>58231246In general the item management has always been terrible. They always just fix it with a band-aid increasing the capacity slightly. Instead of just making it so you can check a box to discard extras or something. I dread the day the level up notebooks max out since they absolutely dump those on you every event and the event point system doesn't let you ignore them like the shops did. Remember when the inventory would constantly be filled with sync orbs? It probably won't be that long until you run out of units you can 70/70.
>>58231258I was bad at trying to get everyone to 750 orbs, so it would just build up. It might not have been perpetually at 99,999 otherwise. I haven't even gotten close to 999,999, but that's because it's such a hefty investment to get someone to 70/70. I've never exchanged for sync orbs at the damage challenge exchange, even though in the long run, you'll get the most out of it. Even if it takes years to get all the damage challenge pairs to 5/5, you'll get all the sync orbs and it'll take much longer to hit the inevitable point of exchanging all your tickets at the start of the month for orbs and then waiting another month to spend more.But I haven't been doing the Battle Rally either, so that's also a loss.
Cute nerd
>>58229043>Preserve the storyYouTube exists with every single event, all the text is online. This manga is also word for word the same as what was in the game. There's nothing that looks particularly good about it. The backgrounds are even more plain than the game.
>>58230897Well about that...
>>58231347Personal gripe is they never have English text Japanese voice. It's always English text English dub or English text no voice.
Haven't played this in like a year is it worth coming back to? Or should I avoid?
>>58231117Wasn't the top 10 decided on a full year before those events released?
>>58231230>Giovanni [...] needs lots of outside stat buffsI don't think this is a valid criticism anymore. Supports pretty much instantly max out offensive stats these days. I agree that he is very frail though.
>>58232332The only thing they did was make Pokefairs more accessible with a new Master Fair banner type. It's probably hard enough to catch up that I don't know if it's worth it or not. There's a new mode that's "generous" but mostly just whale bait.
>>58233001Mewtwo problem was always that it's frail as fuck. At lvl 140 it's HP are lower than Flannery's Torkoal or fucking Brendan and TREECKO. And it's def/spDef are lower than Roark Cranidos (not Rampardos). Even at +6 it's still frail. And thanks god we have units like NC Blue because even for a year one unit the fact it cant boost it's SpA is embarassing
>>58233191Fucked up that Mega cucked Giovanni and Zinnia from a grid expansion
>>58233256Zinnia should have never gotten Rayquaza in the first place.
>>58233554>Worst Legendary Story>Worst Legendary Unit>Worst inclusion in Villain arc>DeNA keep trying to avoid using her>Can't even get into Lodge over 3 menPretty bad flop. Clearly someone at Game Freak had to beg for her to get ANY handouts
>>58228291No but having free 2.0x boost units for battle rally is heavily appreciated.
How does the Legendary sync pairs crystals work? It says they use to give the units a "power boost" but I can't see where to use the 100 crystals
>>58233638Give picture of crystals and it'll help us understand what you're on about.
>>58227850I don't play this but I love Lacey.
>>58233910Her banner is rerunning later this month
>>58233638There's a tab in the shop
>>58227872Her EX style colors are kind of legit shit and not fitting her theme at all to be quite frankly honest in my objective opinion.
>>58231230Just cleared a rally 9th stage (no items) against Volkner and Octillery which had buffed Sp.def and a damage filter if no WTZ was active. I had the starting MC bonus but that's it, the team was Argenta, Academy Florian and Ghetsis, he really didn't eat that much gauge with his expanded grid, just spammed Glaciate with its double MGR, Tackle cheese and that's it, tanked a sync that was buffed by Tough Sync if I remember correctly, in fact Academy Florian needed Max Guard to tank a sync unlike Ghetsis, Florian damage filtering passives work only on normal attacks. Ghetsis is nothing insane beside his personality, but definitely miles ahead of Giovanni and Zinnia in terms of teammates babysitting and damage multiplier requirements. Glaciate's Cold Snap is basically Staggering but as a status rather than interference, it always leaves you a momentum to pick another actions while it triggers an AOE freeze.
>>58231701Seriously, the tera gimmick with stupid hats is retarded and ridiculous to look at.The pokemon adaptation of Pepe with random things on its head.
>>58231000No! Cute wife is for hugs and kisses and LOVE! No bonks from meanies!>>58234496I would have preferred cute wife to resemble her Milky more and be very pink but I think the dark shirt is a nice contrast with how I usually see her.
>>58234441Yeah it was exactly that thing. I don't see any difference in the grid but may as well buy it since its given for free
>>58233554Have you considered that she shares a region with May
when i can get more superawakening candy as f2p? i dont want to spend my golden move candies
What do?
>>58235593pick iono, great unit, stunning woman
>>58235598I have enough Ionos already and there's no way she's going to outdo my other Ghost pairs like Selene (Champion)I can't bring myself to choose anyone that's a Lodge pair, even if Rika is necessary for the Tower.SS Bede is practically required as a special Fighting type.I have some good Poison-types but I feel like Atticus might be necessary Poison support.Bugsy and Benga are mandatory for Bug to do anything, but I'm not investing in both.I have no good Water physical strikers.
>>58235602pick the best girl
You're still taking charts?
>>58235611I chose SS BedeSomewhat regretting it now that I see he's sprint and I'm not going to invest candies on him
>>58235626I TOLD YOU MAN! I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE BEST UNIT TO PICK
19/20
>>58234544Don't worry, gen 10 petamorphing (or whatever) will look even worse.
i've only recently got into pmex and want to do the anni co-op event for the gems but i'm too afraid of sucking and letting people downis the co-op event hard? is there a way to git gud at co-op so this doesn't happen?
>>58235887It's not hard at all, bro, just get in and get those missions done.
>>58235887Co-op doesn't matter at all. Just bring in any shitters. Maybe it'll matter more after they do that whatever gym ranking thing.
>>58235887The main thing to do is attack in the same round as everyone else to trigger the unity gauge. Usually people bring strong enough units to carry you, but that's the main thing to help out. And other than triggering that, using supports for the people carrying you is appreciated.
Chart is here ! Tina take the lead once more !Side note :-Both Variety Thundurus and Landorus start at 3. Tornadus start at 1.Next week first rank :>New pairsCarmine and Swadloon (For real this time that bitch ignored me Monday after three topics)Volo and Giratina-O>EX RolesGiovanni and Mewtwo (Field)Silver and Ho-Oh (Sprint)Zinnia and Rayquaza (Support)Cyrus and Palkia (Support)Ghetsis (Support)Sycamore and Xerneas (Sprint)You and Solgaleo (Tech)Hop and Zamazenta (Sprint)As always you can still post your clears. See you next week !
>>58235887Do not worry, it's unironically refreshing battling with newfags on your side.Regardless the co-op battles are stuck in the past meta, current powercreep let's you clear most co-op with one shot NC May or two hits with other units so you cannot possibly hinder any battle.If you are anxious about your performances you can make three teams and do solo co-op with these three teams of yours, you can pick your ideal partners and supports and give them commands if needed.
Any must gets from the select scouts? (Aside from Ghost Iono I already have her)
>>58236060Seasonals :Holiday Lillie or Palentine ErikaSummer CynthiaVariety :TCG Ethan / TCG Hop / Variety HopTCG Cynthia.
I have to think about if I can spark Red. And then if I can spark Volo by the end of October. I have around 4000 gems and I need give or take 24000 more gems to spark Red. I think that much is doable by the end of the month with tower and gym gems. Volo I have to think about if I can spark him before October ends. I'll probably just skip whatever October has.
>>58235993>For real this time that bitch ignored me Monday after three topicsMotherfucker this tsundere did the same to me as well
I have two Sprint candies. Should I go for Hop and Zacian or Cynthia and Spiritomb? (I'm going to pull Volo)
>>58236450Neither, save them for NC Selene re-run

Question about school Gladion. Would a Normal rebuff help his BMove? Since it changes its type to whatever the weakness of the target is
>>58238113Yes it still counts as normal for the calcs so yes larry pairs up with him very nicely
>>58235578Sauce? Also, can't non-gold be used for superawaken? I thought the only one that requires gold is 10/10 Arc pairs>>58235993Glad no one somehow got Lodge Carmine. I did my best and only got to 75ish by Monday. I'll have to remember her and Zinnia>>58236096Having none of these, why? Didn't think any were too valuable, but don't recall now what they do
>>58235993Thank you for your hard work, chartanon
>>58236038>>58235977>>58235912>>58235904yippee i managed to do it, thanks anons
>>58238454Holiday Lillie - Sync Accel, DC Spammer, BMove hits hard ontype, Sprint/Support.Palentine Erika- That BMove. at 3/5 she has so many utilities, and still hits extremely hard and survive most solos in LG. She's going to be your go to damage dealer for higher floors of Grass Tower.Summer Cynthia- That Sinnoh Circle that gives her Take All Moves + Damage Guard. twice.- She also has a Special Endure. Much like Volo Alt will have. All in all, a really good tank.TCG EthanIf you have Arc Silver, he's going to be your damage dealer for a very long time for Fire teams. Can set a lot of suns as well.TCG HopIf you missed Anni 24 Lillie, he's actually very solid as a Steel-type destroyer. That said i dont know if he's kit too much. Just check his grid on pomatools.Variety Hop / RillaboomHe's the only physical damage dealer that can help with Adaman in Grass Tower. Good luck.TCG CynthiaGhost Sheningnas? The only she needs is Ghost Rebuffs. So if you're rolling for Volo, she's a good candidate if you dont have SSR Cynthia.If you do have NC Selene, her and TCG Cynthia's damage are off the charts.
>>58238454sauce? me. non-gold? no.
>>58238866You should work on torso positioning, they are all really stiff. Try making the pose yourself. If you still don't feel how everything should be positioned, try doing it in front of a mirror, or take a selfie or something.
Nc Serena/Calem and Mega-Greninja could be crazy
>>58238866Hey what did he do
