>dupes are being counted as new cardsHoly shit, fuck them
yeah im done with the gameit was fun while it lasted
So they really hate johto to the point of giving a new pack of old cards instead of starter ex’s? Ok then
>impossible to complete set because you need all the reverse holos>on top of that, only four cards per set>the fact that you already have all these cards doesn't count for completion, nor do they count for old set completionWhy?
>tfw dupes are being counted as separate cards for completion>new dupes don't count for old missionsWhat the fuck is this set?
This game is dead, FUCK DENA
>>58314070
Faggot Nigger Bitch Cunt Giratina
Does anyone know or have they said anything about how trading will work between cards in this set vs the older ones once these become available? For example, if I pull a Dialga from this set and also have one from Spacetime, then go to trade. Which one does it trade? On the card it has both sets listed that it's a part of. Will the trade register that card for both sets in the future?
>>58318361nothing about this update makes any fucking sense, when you check the card it shows as it being available in BOTH packs, and yet it only counts in one? I think they had this available as both cards counting towards the new Dex, but they changed it at the last minute.
>3 Rare Picks>all three give me Primarina EX instead of the goddamn SuiEX I'm missing>new deluxe pack gives me pure shit >WonderPicks tooAnd to think I was actually optimistic about this new set and was even considering getting the premium for the FA Latias...
>locking full art oak behind a time limit packwhyWHYTHIS IS THE CARD I'VE WANTED SINCE THE BEGINNING AND THEY JEW ME LIKE THIS?
>>58318166>>on top of that, only four cards per setAnd you can only get 1 reverse holo per pack, max.
>>58318361I would like to let you know, but my first pack today was an ex I already have.
>got mantyke last minuteLucky wonder pick.
I have 600+ hourglasses saved up. I don't even think I'm going to spend them on anything and just uninstall the game
>>58318427Because>THIS IS THE CARD I'VE WANTED SINCE THE BEGINNING They created the problem(demand), so they could sell the solution(limited supply).
Can we just kill ranked mode and replace with consecutive wins again? Ranks actually fucking killed this game. No joke. It's just not fun.
>>58318454t. greatball shitter
>>58318460Not him but the game basically plays itself once you have looked up a good deck on the internet. It's impossible to be below ultraball with suicune
>>58318439Noice.
>got FA oakgreat, now i don't think i'll get another one for the playset
>>58318460Ranking up isn't a display of skill, it's a display of time wasted. Especially now that every rank has win streak bonuses now.
>>58318460No, I get Masterball every season. It's not hard, it's just a waste of fucking time. That's why I prefer 5 consecutive, get it done with in a day, and the rest of the month I'm just having fun with memedecks with everyone else. Ranked made every match into boring metaslop even when you're not playing ranked.
Are the solo missions timed too?
30 days til B1
>96% of the WPs will cost 3 or more during the entire monthThis is not good...
>suicunepunched it>darkraipunched it>tinapunched it (with red, politoad, or after tanking a hit)poliwrath is so so good into the meta
>>58318460imagine trying to gatekeep a game where half of the matches are over by turn 3
>>58318483this month will be soo slow
>>58318361>if I pull a Dialga from this set and also have one from Spacetime, then go to trade. Which one does it trade?Also how is your trading partner supposed to know if you want the card to be from a particular set? Trading of such cards will otherwise be utterly timeconsuming without proper communication between players
>>58318508>>58318472>>58318474>>58318469t. greatball shitter
>>58318516>Trading of such cardsWhich includes the majority of relevant cards btw. Trading will be dead if Dena doesn't fix this
>>58318523you don't need to sign your posts
Don't worry everyone. After this set, you'll be able to trade any card you want. Missed Shiny Dakrai? No worries. FA Oak? You can get it from your girlfriend's boyfriend. But it will cost gold to do these trades.
i think 2* trades would genuinely create a secondary marketplace of dudes selling cards for money
>>58318543alt arts are being sold for 1- 5$ a pop since day 1
Every single WP I've done so far has hit the 2 pack hourglasses>rates aren't rigged
>>58318523post pre ranked badges
>paying for non-physical cardswhat will you do when the servers shut down?I'll still have my charizard binders
>>58318490I might try to get polywrath if I somehow get 2 copies of all my missing ex. He and jumpluff seem fun to use.
>>58318586Just take a screenshot of your collection
You can't trade ex cards from this set(yet?)
>>58318606Makes no fucking sense since these are EX from older sets. Wtf were they thinking?
>>58318606It's not possible to trade the latest pack of every set
>>58318606Cards acquired from whatever the current pack is have never been tradable
>>58318623It wouldn't surprise me if they never make these tradeable because it would fuck up the trading if everyone has 60 fodder cards to dump for anything meta.
>>58318623>Wtf were they thinking?Money.You DO want to complete the card collection of this very limited set, dont you anon?
>>58318627wonder pick is a bonus, you aren't owed anything from it
>>58318630Maybe, but this is still an old card in every way but its origin.
>>58318638>butit's a new card
>>58318631yfw rotation bans every A-series card and this pack is useless
>>58318644It's not. It's not even listed differently in your collection. They're put in the same pile as the old ones.
>>58318650cope
>>58318652Sorry meant for>>58318644
>>58318649HOLY KINO
>>58318644Sorry meant for>>58318676
>>58318649
Making money is a skillIf you can't pay for the whole set on release day, you effectively have a skill issue
Do premium pass missions reset after the shop resets? currently i have ALL premium missions complete and i am planning to activate the "free two weeks" as soon Lillie's merch arrives but does the missions reset?
>>58318709
>>58318713What?
>>58318649i have no idea how some people are stupid enough to think they're going to rotate out series A>our game is on a bit of a downturn, what do we do?>i know, let's piss off the ENTIRE playerbase by removing every single card we made up until this point!nah bro they'll just EOS.
>>58318709>average lillietard iq
>>58318709Missions are one month onlyYou have like 15hrs to activate the trial if you want both September's and October's premium mission rewards
>>58318727Wouldn't the free trial by tied to the current pass and end with it despite not being two weeks yet?
>completionist autists complaining about the new set>suicune is still the most broken card in the game and nothing will stop itgame is dead
>wake up>open my free packs>very first card i pull is the one single card i wanted the most from the entire setthanks dena.
>>58318731I don't know what you meanOnce you activate the pass it means you're Premium for the next 14 days. If you activate it tomorrow your Premium will end on the 15th and none of September's missions will apply. If you activate now you will get registered for both months that span the 14 days.Do whatever you want
>>58318649They are retarded enough to do this.
Was hoping for Lillie or Lusamine but I'll take it
>>58318718This meta is unfixable. It's unironically better to just throw it all out and start over.
rare candy never should've been added
>>58318778Rare Candy isn't even good anymore. Its only use is in 2 decks.
>wonderpick cards from the newest set show owned cards FROM OLD SETS rather than ones owned on the new setHow am I supposed to know what cards I need for the new set if EVERYTHING shows as owned??? Holy fuck dena are fucking retarded
>>58318782seriously. rare candy is just too slow in a meta where people are doing 100+ damage with basics or stage 1s on turn 3.
>>58318788making a new "pokedex" of this limited pack that mostly has previous cards was already a retarded decision
>>58318798It did cause a great amount of acceleration for a while, but that quickly settled down when we got really fast basics and stage 1s to answer it.
>>58318166why are jews so evil
Ffs
>>58318826
>>58318826Do you still get 5 pack points, or did they nerf it to 4?
>open 30 packsnothing of worth as usual>open 1 pack on my other account that i use for trading chaff from past setscrown rare candy
using babies to ramp into a big >140+ damage stage 2 like poliwrath, zard etc is pretty good counter meta. you can just give your babies up and create a final boss pokemon on your last point with lillie and sabrina
>pull good cards>feel happy>play the game>get raped by RNG>feel sad
>>58318839I did that with Flareon, and sometimes with Lantern, last ranked season and it was funny seeing all Giratinas and Suicunes die very early.Only one that fucked me up was greninja, I still don't know how to deal with him and Cyrus.
>10 pull>don't get any of the new star cardsEh, finally got the 4-diamond version of cards I only had 2-star versions of at leastAlso WP'd an FA Greninja
>>58317988The base set is 353 cards. Try again
>>58318361Go ahead and offer any friend you have an Old Amber trade without actually making the offer. On the right there is a edit card option that allows you to toggle the set. Additionally, trade info at the bottom will display the set. It is on you to check incoming trades if set matters.
The glossy effect looks nicer than the 3-diamond foil look imo
yeah I'm not pulling this dogshit set lmao. i don't care if I have a big ugly unfinished page. this is bullshit and I'd rather have 300 hourglasses for next month
>>58318900You can just use the daily pulls lmao
>>58318873i really like how they don't have that shitty grey border that clashes hard with any type but metallucked into two copies of zeraora and they look SO much better than the default ones
>>58318903I'm not completing a 350 pokemon base set pulling 8 pokemon a day
>>58318915you get 480 cards at 2 packs a dayluck issue
>>58318900just pulled Shiny Tina on my daily pack after making this post. reminder to bully DeNa if you want better packs.
>>58318826I got 4 of those fucking darkrai's
>>58318900>>58318927Lmao, lucky dubs.
I cant believe I have to wait 13 more hours before I can pulll more
cant wait for megas to turbo the meta deeper into the porverbial toilet
>everyone constantly bitches about monthly releases being f2p unfriendly>dena makes a gap set that has literally no new cards in it so there is absolutely NOTHING to miss out on>people bitch even more about thisyou fucking faggots don't even know what you want.
>>58318057>Haven't played in 3 weeks since the Greninja+Darktina spam is obnoxious, hoping for something new to spice things up>Literally just a limited time banner with repeats dedicated for paypigfags>Haven't to endure ANOTHER MONTH of this meta.Welp, time to not touch these threads or the game just for another month.
>>58318969f2poors will always complain
>>58318969>you fucking faggots don't even know what you want.I want the literally identical cards that I already pulled like a fucking year ago to be prepopulated in the new dex
>>58318975>>58318969I'm one of the biggest whales here and I'm complaining
>>58318963I can believe I have to wait another month for a real set
>>58318969I don't even mind the concept of this set. A catchup right before a new series is good. Everything else about it is bad. Existing cards don't count toward its completion, the card pool is diluted to shit, every card is duplicated. pull rates are worse than a regular set. and it's limited.
>>58318982i understand why whales are complaining, you have an addiction and now feel compelled to spend thousands of dollars to complete this new limited time set.but you fucking deserve it since you're subhuman.
>>58318996And you only have a chance to get ONE(1) reverse holo per pack, when those take up nearly 50% of the total card pool.
4 FUCKING PIKACHU THAT I CAN'T TRADE AND 3 FUCKING GIRATINA WHY GOD WHY THIS WAS A 100 PACKS AND I GOT NOTHING, A FUCKING 100 PACKS FOR SHITTY DUPLICATE THAT I CAN'T EVEN TRADE BECUASE THIS SHITTY GAME DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO
dudes be spending thousands of dollars on cards that are functionally the same as the basic ones but with a little sparkle or some prettier drawings lmao
>>58318718Bro, they just fucking released an entire pack that was nothing but re-runs and you don't think they're retarded? Are you retarred?
>>58319045Are you new to tcgs?
>>58318996i really just fail to see how any of these things actually matter. if they didn't add reskins for people to collect you'd be bitching about it being only reprints right now, don't even try to deny it.
>>58319051This isn't a trading card game though, it's an NFT sandbox.
>completes 50 deck lists and themed collections one at a time
>>58319045why are we pretending there isnt a bunch of new art
BRO, JUST PULLED THE GOLD FOIL OF THE CARD I GOT 5 MONTHS AGO! ONLY TOOK ME $530 ON THE FIRST DAY! FUCKIN AWESOME! CAN'T WAIT TO USE IT IN PVP AFTER LETTING THE TURN COUNTDOWN GO TO 5 SECONDS SO THE EXTRA ANIMATION WASTES MY MOVE!
>>58319068lil bro is discovering that humanity has a thing for trinket collecting
>>58318922>you get 480 cards at 2 packs a dayNice maths retard, not even with the premium pass you can reach that amount.
please god just condense all the series A pack points into 1 pool
>as a special A-Series close out, the set was specially modified to give you one shit pack for every match you've ever concededby the look of things in here it would have to be a while before those 2*'s drop
>>58319079Fomoids are just lmaoIt doesn't matter how dumb something seems they won't be left out at their own detrimentThey can't be helped
>>58318606What the fuck, they don't even count as new cards.If in the future someone puts one of those on their wishlist, how are you supposed to tell which one he wants? How is he supposed to tell which one you are giving him?
>>58319116>How is he supposed to tell which one you are giving him?>>58318871
Welp it took 12 packs of the new set to realise i'd rather go back to opening old packs in search of kino immersives and rainbows I never pulled. What a fuckin retard pack release lmao. Shinies are incredible compared to this shit
Umm sweaties.... it's a gacha.... it's literally supposed to have horrible rates and systems that force you to paypig...What? Other gachas have coherant ways of recycling outdated cards as fillers and pity systems? Ok, but those don't have pokemon creatures so what's your point??
They just need to combine all pack points into a single pool and have no limit on them and it would make life better for everyone
>>58319128Except the people who want your money
>>58319126But but but in the real trading card game I can buy any card I want from someone else :<
>grinding through solo battles>AI puts all of moltres' generated energy on magby>uses elemental switch twice to move all of zard's energy onto magby and then retreats magby into zardso this is the power of """expert""" AI, huh?
>>58319138You have to balance the amount of bullshit you put into your gacha, or else player retention starts to drop when people realize that even if they're paying they'll never get the things they want, especially as the backlog of old cards continually grows.Having a rerun set that will be available for only 1 month, only gives you 4 cards per pack, doesn't count even the completely identical cards pulled from other sets as part of your collection, and has more cards than you can pull for even as a premium subscriber, is completely retarded
so is this deluxe stuff the 1 year anniversary event or is this the bait to get you to blow your load before the event?
any mewtwo decks?
Have we done anything with the Advance Ticket yet?
>>58319212this is the bait.
>>58319212No this is it, deluxe ex will run well past the anniversary date. They're giving everyone a special Eevee ex and a few extra free pack opens. We had a teaser for Mega Evolutions some months back said to drop in fall that'll undoubtedly get their set after this, coinciding with ZA.
>>58319228When is the true anniversary date?
>they are spending hourglasses on the new packguys..
>>58319238yeah but what if I get the cool Oak FA
>>58319238Yeah but what if I get the cool Greninja FA
>>58319238what can i say? i like the way the new 2* cards look. i like the foils. megas are going to break the game beyond repair just like VMAX did in the TCG, why not have some fun before then?
>>58319215same as the old build, but replace the 2 gardevoirs with the new glossy or FA gardevoir
>>58319238I NEED Lillie.
I just want the Immersive Pikachu...
But rolling on the new pack is all luck, you cant even cope with pack points.
Looking for full arts I’m missingWisdom>Heracross>TyranitarCelestial>MorelullSpace-Time>Cresselia>HippopotasHave everything else, I’ll trade anything I have more than 1 or 2 of depending on if it’s a card I use or not.FC: 0448090988288790
>>58319238Crazy Lusamine tho
>>58318057not a regular here, just play the game casually.Can someone explain this new set? It's just a rerun of the old cards? but pulling one doesn't add it to the old set? What's the deal?At first I thought it was some kind of "event banner" but it kind of just looks like they repackaged existing cards.
>>58319245>>58319251>>58319252>>58319306>>58319325They’re going to have 3 packs for the upcoming anniversary unironically.
>>58319348New pack that contains old cards and new art vairents. Its meant for newcomers as all the cards are meta ones or were really strong at some point.
Uh, neat.
>>58319373gotcha, so it's a best of the last year of packs + new artworks.Dislike how they made the ENTIRE pack its own slot in the card dex, should just be the new art, chances they rework it?
>>58319392Id say chances are slim, this pack has to be limited as it invalidates all the others. It cant be around forever
>>58319238let themthe same dumbass than use hourglasses to Pull the rare cards of this Pack, are the same Pigs than gonna spend tons of money trying to Pull the new mega Pokemon when they realease in oct, Piggys gonna Pig
>Open 20 packs>Get 2 immersive PikachusREEEEEE I JUST WANT PROF RESEARCH WHY AM I WASTING MY LUCK ON THIS YELLOW RAT?
>alt account got immersive Pikachu and Farfetch'd>main got jackshit Fuck, this is the kind of shit that makes me want to use my hourglasses.
>>58319215MewTina, or just play old Mewtwo/Gardevoir.
>>58319417What's the point of an alt account?
>>58319430trading with yourself, duh
>>58319430You get extra pulls and can trade with yourself
>>58319430to feed yourself cards with easy trades. i'm dusting off my old alts for this set, i want to make sure i can get the foil cards i want without having to whale and with how terrible the odds are i need as many chances as i can get.
so in summary>Every standard card has a reverse holo with its own slot>the only new cards are the 2* and 3*s in a sea of 300 old cards where you get 4 a pack>Cards appear in the dex twice now, with the game counting them as the same in some instances and different in others>all of this is in service of letting people play a meta that has already been fully figured out and is broken to shitDid I miss anything?
As a seasoned programmer, and probably the best one ITT, the the old cards being re-released under the new limited edition xpac having overloaded pointers feels like bad design >It's a new old card!
>>58319435YOU CAN'T TRADE THE BEST SHIT!
>>58319443Wonder Pick now has a chance of giving you 2 hourglasses, otherwise yeah that's pretty much it.I CAN'T WAIT FOR ONE MORE MONTH OF SUICUNE/GRENINJA META! THANKS DENA!
>>58319459Yeah but now it's FA Greninja so it's not the same.
>>58319459>1 more monthyou think the deck is just going to vanish when megas drop? no, the entire strategy for megas is inherently protect the king, meaning it's vulnerable to the exact shenanigans suicune greninja regularly gets up to with bench sniping and punishing.get ready for an entire year of this shit.
>>58319160It's been getting worse and worse. It's jaw droppingly bad this time around.
>>58319465Also crown rare rare candies, shiny tina and FA oak.7/20 cards are new, completely different meta
Seeing as I'm only missing Garchomp EX to complete the Arceus set, would getting one through the current packs count?
Finally pulled my first ever crown and godpack after 12k+ cards
>>58319485damn FA Lillie as well, nice pull
>>58319479that would make sense, so no
>>58319485Dammit, that is a very good god pack and no shiny cookblocking too.
>>58319485>god pack>but it's four cards so you got only 80% of regular god pack valueI'd be upset ngl.
>>58319503>godpack>but there's an extremely low chance of pulling shinies that waste slots>and even if you do get the shinies they're top-tier meta cardsi dunno man i think this is the best time to be getting a godpacki pulled one in SR and it was planeta wugtrio, a few shitty shinies, and full art grafaiaisomething that shit is completely impossible with this set
>>58319485That candy makes me feel nothing, is pointless as fuck.
24 packs and I only got this (the Greninja was a WP).
>>58319485Pretty fucking jelly, that's a really nice God pack.
The game unnecessarily threw three Shiny Darkrai at me this morning, are there any unique decks to use it on, or is it just Darkraitina and Darkrailego slop the whole way down? I actually like Darkrai and want to use it more.
>>58319485Wow GG anon fantastic godpack
>>58319545arceus/crobat and umbreon/umbreon ex both like to run a single darkrai copy. dunno about rogue decks that run 2 though, aside from nearly unplayable shit like darkrai/miltank or darkrai/silvally.
>>58319238Nah, only dailies. I'm at the point where to complete my collection I only need singular exes from different sets, so I figured opening the pack that guarantees 1 ex gives me a better chance.No, I don't count Reprints: the Set as a separate thing to collect.
>>58319414>he's pulling for FA Oak when we'll get Juniper next setTrust the plan.
>>58319485>tfw have spent over 5k on this game and never got a god pack
>>583194592 hourglases for 3 wonder points is awful. At least impulsefags will be able to save their wonder hourglasses.
>>58319503If he was pulling a 5 cards pack, he'd have gotten minimum 3 shinies.
>>58319055It really would not make a difference to me. All I cared about was having an easy, consistent source of ex cards that I could use for future trades.
Illustration Rare chasers don’t be spicing they animations.
Guess it's better than the commons
>>58319769Except whales do and who do you think chases 2 star cards?
>foils will be the main roadblock to actually completing the set, as most people will not trade foils except for other foils>every 1-3 diamond card has a foil>there are 278 1-3 diamond cards, half of which are foils, so you'll need at least 139 foils if you intend to complete the set via trading>odds are around 50% for a pack to have one, so approximately 280 packs>plus some more packs because odds are you won't have the exact numbers for each rarity of foil>plus some additional packs because 3-diamond foils are significantly rarer>plus even more packs if you want to have dupes to actually use in your decks instead of just completiontismwhat the fuck dudei mean i'm still going to go for it with the alt army method and a lot of patience but jesus fucking christ
Immersive lillie over FA lillie
>>58319238Yeah but what if I get Staryu with the reverse holo?
>>58319835
>>58319838But immersive lillie already exists.

>no fa in my wonderpickCome on guys seriously
Actual non meme answers please:I'm not a latefag so I already have most of the cards anyway, should I waste hourglasses on this pack for a chance at good shit or just stick to the original sets? Way I see it this is just a bloated ass set with 350+ cards so the """increased odds""" per pack kind of blow.
>open 12 packs>no 2* >no ex I didn't already have>only """rare""" is a fucking shiny Darkrai>nothing in WP eitherJews gonna Jew I guess
>>58319967>waste hourglasses on this>or stick to the original setsyou're... not spending glasses on old sets, are you?
>>58319967No, save hourglasses for the next set and use your twice daily freebies for this one just so you can get a chance of the limited time cards. Even the reverse foils may somehow be useful sometime in the future if you need trade fodder.
>>58319967Just do dailies unless you have all the relevant cards. The only few good rare cards are the trainer full arts and you could just get those from free pulls so don't worry about it.
>>58319976>open 12 packs>don't get 3% chance card>WTF DENAwhy is /vp/ so unbelievably retarded?
>managed to WP 2 FA Greninjas in a rowI'm on a roll
>>58319983Ah right... The same trainer full arts I always get in free pulls haha
>>58319996Statistically I should have pulled 1.26 of your 3% chance cards out of the 42 I have.
>>58320010Not every card slot is equal.
>>58320010most intelligent /vp/ user right here folks
Speaking of probabilities, any datamines have the real odds of cointosses? They're definitely not 50/50. I noticed cards that have multiple coinflips are more likely to get tails than those with single coin flips, so they probably weigh it out based on how powerful an effect is if it reaches its max potential.
>>58320051I also noticed they stealth nerf some flip cards. Celebi EX was flippin heads like a madman when it first launched, now it gits like a limp dick.
>>58319451the cards don't even get labelled as "new" when you pull them, but you still have to slide them up and watch them get added to the limited set's collection
>>58320051I've heard before that coin flips are weighted against you during solo battles, but should be true random in pvp.
>>58320051>they're definitely not 50/50this is the single greatest sign that they're actually 50/50 btw
30 packs for rare candy and shiny darktinai feel it
I don't regret my 10-pull. I got Gardevoir and Greninja out of it. And a couple of ex mons I didn't have or didn't have 2 of.
might actually drop the game after this. i can ignore it I guess.
Pretty good luck desu. It's not a waifu but Oak *is* the best card in the game, so can't complain about 2 FA Oaks.
>>58319451>new cards complete missions from old sets but don't count for old set completion despite being in the exact same slot in your collectionIt's fucking retarded.
>>58320261Can't complain seeing as how you're gonna use them in every single deck lmao
>>583196335000 us dollars?
>>58320329yeah
>>58320338Do you have every card in the game? Like all the Crown Rares, EX shinies, FA trainers and so on?
Are the rates on the "good" shit higher? I've already gotten the crown rare candy, immersive pikachu and a shiny giratina ex. Honestly the rates better be above average because it's all fucking dupes of existing cards anyway.
>>58319633I'm F2P, started late, and have 4 already.
>>58320215>Didn't get jack fucking shit from my 10 pull>Already got 2 of the 1*s I wanted and some hourglasses out of my 4 wp's I've done so far Lady luck works in mysterious ways
>>58319436>>58319440How can I make an alt without a second phone?
>>58320370I pulled a Slurpuff from WPs earlier, that was the first time I actually got something I wanted in nearly a month.Better than last set where my 10-pull got me jack shit and then every pack after that did too.>>58320376Bluestacks.
>>58320348No lol
>>58320383Bro wtf? The rates in this game are absurd. Why are you even spending so much on this game? What were you chasing?
>>58320389You gotta chase everything because they add a new waifu card every month.
>>58318969it has to do with how horribly this set was implemented. if it was just a normal set that wasn't getting removed in a month and gave 5 cards per pack and didnt have shitty reverse foils in it most of the complaining wouldnt exist.
>>58320383thats wild dude
>pull a bunch of trash>but it completes deck challenges>have to individually click through three screens to clear each oneWhat the fuck?
>>583194854-card godpack is a steal tho. They should have let it be 5 cards
>>58320466Yeah but the chances that it would have been 5 with no 1* or shiny, you might as well have won the lottery. That anon's godpack is close to as good as it comes
>>58320466>let it be 5 cards like regular sets>now each slot has a 25% chance to be taken up by a completely garbage piece of shit 1 star shinylol
>>58319529I don't get why they make they keep picking cute/silly meme cards for the best card in the set. Pokeball is novel but every mini expac after I've been glad to have not gotten.
>>58320490Using useless/common cards so that the mega rarities are just cosmetic upgrades is how it should be done though, playable cards shouldn't be for paypiggies only.
What do Japanese players think of the new set, specifically repeat cards having new slots in the binder
>>58320532They are too busy whaling to get the waifucards and FA to care about those details.
Someone trade me jumpluff ex...
>>58320570Sure, do you have an SR Pikachu EX?
Suicune pack EXs will be the most rare after this...
>old cards count for theme collections but not for card dex>have to get OVER THREE HUNDRED UNIQUE CARDS to complete the card dex for this LIMITED TIME SET>cards you get from THIS set DON’T count for older card dexs>and you CAN’T TRADE THEM because they’re marked as new set cardsWORST FUCKING SET BY FARKILL WHOEVER CAME UP WITH THIS SHIT
>>58320673Agreed. Can you imagine trading for the ex’s? You have to specifically wishlist the right ex from the right set and hope they don’t just pick from its original set because they don’t have the reprint. What is Dena smoking and can I get some of that
You didn't complain when mythical island's Old Amber worked the same way as these dupes do for the card dex, so you don't really care about the game rules you're just seething poorfags.>t. DeNA
>>58320712That’s the funny thing, Genetic Apex copies of Old Amber DID count for the Mythical Island card dex as far as I saw. No idea if the reverse was true though.
>>58320637I do if you're still up for the trade 9568-0002-9502-4080
>>58318826I got the faggot shiny giratina instead of full art oak. I'm mad. >:^(
>>58319112Life is fomo faggot and everyone exploits it.
Sneed Peek when?
>>58320051>>58320107Someone on Reddit did a spreadsheet with hundreds and hundreds of coin flips tracked.It's 50/50 for most of the game. Except for expert solo battles. It's 60/40 for you to flip heads and go first on the initial coin flip. Once you're in the battle, it's 40/60 that you'll flip heads.
>>58319901My understanding of Wonder Picks, is that it IS pre-determined. That's why, if you close the app before picking 1 of the 5 cards, you still get a card.Therefore, had you actually picked bottom left, a Charmeleon would have appeared there. The positioning is determined on-the-fly after you touch something
Top sales stuff, very important for us dena investors and allThat said, I have to ask, is the gundam gacha that much popular or the japs are not happy with this ex set bs?Gget is currently on its half-anniversary, but still
>>58320928I'm probably just crazy, but I would swear some of the rates are a little curbed depending on cards. Some of the really weak basics with a coinflip status proc like flabebe or dedenne barely ever get tails, where Misty ~A2A or so after lots crying and complaining feel like heads are actually kind of rare.
>>58320969>Gundam in first place Then why that Gundam Overwatch failed?
Guess I could make the regular 2 star Mew my new chase card
>>58320994Because it wasnt a good game lol.
>>58320994Because the pilots of the gundams are generic instead of, well, THE ACTUAL GUNDAM CHARACTERS THEMSELVES?!
>>58320998I'll trade you rnAre you the old sea map guy?
>>58320736NOT THEY DIDN'T! I remember clearly that my old amber from mythical island didn't count for genetic apex and I had to buy the card in the set for it to count.
>>58320994Overwatch itself failed.Can't make porn with the models either
>>5832091412th
>>58320969TCG Pocket falling in popularity can only be a good thing.
>>58321149We can trade 2 stars now? I don’t have a sea map
>>58319633Damn I'm a free player and even I pulled a godpack hahaha sucks to suck ig. Gotta oink em all!
i've slowly come to realize that the single most autistic faggot deck in this game isn't suicune greninja, it's fucking guzzlord>lol i just press button and delete your entire stack of energy and you lose the game xdgenuine cancer, and there's essentially nothing most decks can do about it
>>58321475Just build the energy in the bench and one shot.
>>58321497and on decks that can't hit 170 (the majority of decks in the game)?
>>58321530Just play Flareon.
>>58321475Just do it back to him with Team Rocket Grunts
>>58321475it's insanely brainless but it isn't the only brainless bullshit and the bar is extremely low for "plays" or "decisions" that actually effect the outcome of a game. it's not fun to face any deck because when rng is in their favor their deck is gay and they are a faggot nigger. however darktina players are actual factual psychopaths that need a bullet in their head
>>58321545>just play [deck that guzzlord has an extremely strong matchup into]lol?
>>58321530My deck can hit 170
Yeah they've unquestionably done something fucked to auto-play AI to make it near unusable>AI has basic out in active spot>has stage 1 in hand>has energy on it to use the stage 1 attack>DOES NOT EVOLVE IT AND JUST ATTACKS WITH THE BASIC
>3 immersive pikachus>no FA trainers
>>58321763Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the player AI was extra retarded
>day 1 set completion across my multiple accountswith the power of autism i will see this throughfuck you denasuck my dick you fucking jews
I unironically won
I hit the pull limit for both days so far, these are my results
>waifufag >Scroll downHe hides them in shame lol
>>58320261>>58320275You guys know Oak is getting a reprint with a different professor next month right? Oak is cringe
>he's not making 100 smurf accounts so he can later trade those deluxe cards into his main accountWhat are you doing, senpai?
>running magcargo vs ai buzzwole>okho myself by accidentnoice
>>58321854You can't trade anything higher than one star.
>>58321545Flareon can win against guzzlord but only if you get a good hand early on. You can obviously hit him twice if you don't have double eevee bag + red, but flareon is extremely vulnerable to his guzzlord's first attack. The guy can easily remove all of your fire stocks.
This deck got second in a tournament last month with 10 wins and 1 lost. Do I dare? I don't understand why it uses one Erika so maybe I'm too small brain for it
>>58321876I tried it and it's fun, if a bit inconsistent. I run one with Cyrus and Repel instead of Cleffa so it might not be as good, but it gets the work done.>one ErikaYou rarely need to heal, and Lillie already works as a second healer anyway. It's way better to guarantee kills and snipe the bench over healing imo.
>>58321854people are too busy complaining that completing the set is impossible to actually go and complete the set for themselves.
Someone dc'd in ranked to stall me out so I'm leaving my phone idle watching him log in and out trying to play again but too angry to concede
>>58321807What are you chasing?
>already got 2 shiny Darkrais from my free packsimagine being a pay pig. Also, I'm not going to play Darktina.
>>58321924>Inconsistent >Doesn't use CleffaSee? Though I agree switching communicator for an Erika or Repel would be better
only reason I was playing this game was for the collecting and now they've fucked up the collecting. I had every set complete as a F2P and now they pull this shit. a shame I can't just give away my rare cards to you guys
>>58321876There's nothing more soulless than solo stage 2 decks. It's literally rare candy to win.
Needed passimian ex to complete celestial set, rolled a 10 on new set got passimian, doesnt count for celestial dex. Yup fuck this game im out i hope dena hq gets fucking bombed
>>58322254Have you tried trading in this trading card game?
>>58322259I shouldnt need to trade for a card i happen to pull for it to count for my dex completion because dena is retarded or malicious (they are both)
>>58322259NTA but didn't they disable trading for the "new" cards even though they are old?
>>58322221Stfu DarkTinaNIGGER
>>58321805>one of eachBased.Unironically better playset than having 2 of the same.
maybe a stupid question, except from the fact that it's an ex, why would run a basic eevee instead of an eevee ex unless i am targeting a specific abilty (like draw a card)? i am not sure how the ex ability works, like do i still need the evolved card in hand or can i just click the ability and choose any evolution?
>>58322380The ability works as if EeveeEX is a regular card so it evos normally. Really it's JUST an excuse for running up to 4 Eevees in any given deck (2reg+2EX) since EXs usually can't evolve whatsoever.
>>58322380It makes eevee decks super consistent, you never start with the wrong basic card in hand since you have 4 of them
>>58322380You don't want to give up 2 points if you brick.
>>58322380It's pretty simple >Normal ex can't evolve>Eevee ex can evolve as though it was Eevee>The existence of Eevee ex means you can effectively run 4 Eevee instead of 2
>>58322415>>58322472>>58322495>>58322503thanks guys, so it really is just about consistency
>>58322115Yeah I know, but I don't have the little pink thing. That's one me though, when I'm done with the current pack I'll try to get her. I'm also missing a second picture so my elec decks kinda suck ass right now.
>>58322507It's both about consistency, and being able to run 2 Sylveon and 2 Espeon in a deck. Even non-ex Sylveon is extremely powerful in that kind of deck because everything evolves from the same basics.
Ok based
>>58322574
>>58322380"[Pokémon's name]" cards and "[Pokémon's name EX]" cards are threated as two completely different cards in the TCG, meaning for example if a Raichu card reads "Evolves from Pikachu", you can NOT use it to evolve a "Pikachu EX" card.Eevee EX's ability basically bypasses this by letting it evolve from any card that would evolve from regular Eevee. You still need to have said card in end and be allowed to play said card (i.e. it's not the first turn the basic is in play). Basically, what this allows you is to have up to 4 Eeveelutions in play (2 evolved regular Eevees and 2 evolved Eevee EX).If you're just running 2 Eevees in your deck (i.e. Stokezard Sylveon deck), you're better off running the regular Eevee that fishes Pokémons out of your deck.
>2 Shiny Faggot Nigger Bitch Cunt GiratinasI'll take the FA Oak but actually FUCK YOU GAME
>que up with Darkrai girstina>Match making becomes completely rigged and I lose to garbage like meowscarada
>>58322692Fucking deservedNeck yourself
How does this solo battle charizard+moltres deck somehow have fully stacked charizard on turn 5 every single time
Sugar, Spice & Everything Nice.
Are any bots available yet
>>58322574>>58322590I know this deck is the strongest in the game, but I honestly don't mind it as much as greninja.Good shit anon, have fun.
>>58322731>tags: mind-break, ntr, milf, bestiality
>>58321819I don't even show mine off
>time limited>required 2 in every single deckIs FA Oak going to be the most sought after card in the entire game once this pack is gone?
When should I sign up for the premium pass trial if I want both this one and the next one? How narrow is my window?
>>58322858Rare Candy is more rare due to being a Crown that's also a two of in every deck that uses stage 2s
>>58322860Missions can be progressed even if you're F2P, so just pop it on the last day of the month.
>>58322862Based, thanks
>>58322861But that's not every deck. Rare Candy is useless for basic decks. Oak is unconditional.
Man the normies are NOT happy about this set kek, who knew a little tick box not getting checked off due to a technicality would cause this much of a shitstorm
New AI autoplay retardation:>hitmonlee in active spot>bench pokemon with 30hp left>AI uses cyrus to bring that pokemon to the active spot
>>58322879The CPU only ever asks itself if it CAN play a Trainer, not if it SHOULD.
>the only Dragon-types worthy of being in the Deluxe Pack in your path
This pack should have included promos.
Is that...the same card I will never use with a new ugly texture? UOHHHHHH IM ROOOOOOOOOOLLINNNNNNNNG
I would spend my WP HGs if cards from the DX pack counted for old dexes, but since they don't, I'm going to hoard unless it's for full arts
>>58320938>That's why, if you close the app before picking 1 of the 5 cards, you still get a card.It could also just be that it auto picks the first option if you do this. This should be looked into more, but I don't know how you would test this.
>>58322941You wouldn't test it, but it doesn't matter. Even if the outcome of your pick mattered, you don't know what card is where.
>>58322948Right. Because the order is randomly scrambled out to every single user wonderpicking the same pack, it's basically impossible to find out unless you look at the code.
>>58322380Eevee EX absolutely oneshotting people lol. I've never seen a card written with such simple language make so many people stumble. Not making fun of you, this question gets asked so many times in these threads that whenever I see it I almost feel like it's a running gag, it's just funny how the rules in this game are so awkward that a plain statement that's very straightforward constantly gets this question. Speaks volumes about the game's design.
Hory Sheet. It happened
WPs are random but also I can psychically predict exactly what card I'm going to get in the second between selecting and a card and the cards being revealed every time.
>>58322590Bro, your full art Red??????
>>58322683
>>58322731>Game doing so poorly they had to already drop their Lillie bomb multiple times in just the first year to try keeping attentionDeadGame
>>58322981I can predict the outcome 2O% of the time for some reason
>>58322980I too will get there......eventually
>>58322991The second set of Lillie cosmetics aren't even in the shop proper, they're part of the premium pass so anyone can pop a trial and get them. They're desperate.
>>58322858Seeing that the current deluxe set is time limited and there's statement that it'll come back sometime in the future (perhaps as the last set for set B), My prediction is that the next deluxe set will contain another full art professor research but with a different prof character (hoping for full art juniper)
>Let my wife play the game while I take a shit>She used all my hourglasses on this setWell at least I got FA Oak and gold Rare Candy.
>>58322979i've seen cards in other tcgs with super complicated abilities explained in a much better wayi mean you see something like link below in gwent and the first reaction is likely "wtf", then you read it again and if you know how to play you instantly understand how it works, i swear the more i read eevee ex ability and the less i understand ithttps://gwent.one/en/card/203199
It occurs to me that this pack is extra shitty because at least with normal packs if you don't get anything good you still got some PP to eventually grind out what you want whereas with this if you end up with jack shit at the end of the month then too bad.
>>58323043It's not hard to figure out. Raichu evolves from Pikachu, not Pikachu ex. ex Pokemon are effectively an entirely different species, because you can run 2 of them and 2 of a non-ex version.
Fuck this set and fuck this game
I will now play a guzzlord deck.
Got to smack this shit bird for once with my celesteela. Get fuck ori abusers
They should've used this chance to rerelease existing cards but with alternate typingDark-type Greninja with Darkrai
>>58322703Got my 2nd one
Ok looking good. But it feels bad when I lose with those shinies
It's over
Next >>58323296
>>58323156More like guzzle my cum deck, amirite???
>>58323253Personally I'm hoping they bring Delta Species into the game. I honestly expected them to come out before Megas but I guess they are REALLY hurting for player attention right now. Delta Species is the coolest part of the TCG and probably the precursor to regional forms.
>>58323281>No FA Oaks>No FA Sabrina>No FA Mars>No FA Pokemon Center Cumrag>No FA RedBro?????? Are you even trying???? How is DeNA CEO supposed to afford his 4th yatch at this rate? Congrats
