i haven't pulled an immersive since shining revelry
>>58336370I went from MI to WSS with no immersive pulls. a good 6 months
Missing 4 particular cardsAnyone with spare Vikavolt, FA Bewear, FA Drampa, or Jumpluff ex, let me know what you need in exchange
>>58336428i have a spare jumpluff. if you have shuckle or wigglytuff, drop your fc.
>>583364450631738336471414I have 3 Shuckle now, so I can send you one
>>58336464added.
should budew be:>a grass baby>a dark baby
>>58336510grass. the world does not need a dark baby feeding free energy to darkrai while doing 20 damage.
>>58336487Sent you the offer
>>58336533thanks for the shuck.
>>58336367Just got my second god pack at 8K cards. This is way better than my first god pack (trash shinies, trash 1* and a FA trainer nobody uses). To make it even better the first card of my next pack was FA Greninja so spiritually this was a full 5 card god pack.
this new trend of sticking oricorio in suicune greninja makes me want to commit genocide on the japanese racewhat the actual fuck are you supposed to do against this deck nowlike holy fucking shit
I'll trade my virginity to one of you anons for a Prof Research 2*>but anon, then you'd get a good FA and lose your VA card, how is that a badLook, I just need a win/win here ok?
>40 packs >Not a single time limited 2 stars>Missed the only one that appeared in wp>No shinies
>he rolled in this garbage set when the only cards worth a damn are free through wonder trades COULDN'T BE ME
i hope dena gets kyoani'd for this shit
>over 300 cards collected>Got Lillie>Got enough points to buy Lusamine>now just pull my dailies for the rest of the month and see where it goesFeels good to be a paypig chad
i genuinely don't understand what decks can handle the oricorio variant of suicune greninja that's starting to catch on. until now i was playing guzzlord to deal with them but it just fizzles out when they drop oricorio.i think this deck is stronger than darktina ever was, at least when darktina was the best thing you could play skarmzone or meowbee and stand a chance, but like... literally nothing i can think of does remotely well into this fucking deck.it's just obscene. it should not have been allowed to exist. they knew greninja was already cancer with sylveon and they went ahead and printed the best card ever made and made it a water type to pair with greninja.
>>58336549Congrats anon. Wonder if i'll ever pull another god pack
Just watched this Japanese guy on TikTok beg over and over again for "Hakase", only to scream his lungs out upon seeing Lillie.
The last time I played was during the Celebi expansion.Is my best move to open the new premium packs if I want to get cards for current meta decks or should I open specific older sets?
i'm genuinely starting to believe i'm being targetedthe game has just been beating me over the head with bad hands all season longit doesn't matter what deck i play, it doesn't matter when i play it, it doesn't matter how i play in-game, i'm always the one with the shit hand, it's always an uphill battle, and i'm almost always losingthis, coming off of every other season being a walk in the park to reach master ball, doesn't seem normaleither i angered a voodoo god or dena is rigging my gamesi'm 200 games in and STILL stuck in ultra 4 with a winrate of 46%, and literally nothing has changed about the meta from last season where i hit master in a day with 82% WR using the exact same decks i'm using now
>>58336752yes anon, you are being targeted
>>58336752if you bought Poke Gold™ this wouldn't ever have happened!
>>58336752i feel you, stay strong my friend
Fuck Suicune. Eggs in charge.
Good anti-meta decks? I was thinking Raikou or maybe green cat.
>>58336749Might as well go back to not playing and wait till they make shit better, but if you HAVE to play then the new pack is the best choice both because it has exclusive cards that will go away, and because it has a higher chance of giving you meta EXs.
>>58337001what do you mean make shit better? is the current meta boring or what's the problem?
>>58336752Schizo behavior
>>58337006The current "meta" consists of 2 decks being the single most played, one of which has been meta for multiple expansions in a row now. Also they fucked over godpacks and wonderpicks with shinies and still haven't implemented trading above 1*.
Had assumed based on my luck with the past 2 packs I would get 0 2* cards this season.
>>58337071unplayable card...
Is it me or are you luckier when you’ve got the premium pass? I’m going the 2 weeks free trial and I’ve never gotten as many rare cards (Lusamine twice, Lillie, Darkrai and Giratina shiny full arts)
>>58337099Yea, very sad. Even when it was new I remember there was a brief experimentational period (well I guess everyone was experimenting since the game was new) here people tried to splash it into decks to get it working. But it was just a better Ditto, which isn't saying much. Best usecase it had was up against Charizard especially since it didn't have to discard any energies after. It'd often be too slow to use against Mewtwo.
>>58336595I like the immersive...
>>58336739why is the incompetent aryan little girl so desired
>>58337112It was used back when it came out in mewtwo decks, both for mirror matches and to kill zards. It's threat to Mewtwo wasn't in a direct 1v1 but rather as a revenge killer that could 1-shot Mewtwo. Explorer also meant it could double as a tank or an early game dps then be switched out for free. It worked, but only very briefly.
>>58337124
Anyone got a spare Decidueye?
Faggot Nigger Bitch Cunt Giratina
>>58337145Agreed.
What do you think the average spend would be to actually complete this set within the month?
Foil Dawn is my best pull so far.
Regular Decidueye is broken as fuck.
I just realized people can see your favorite cards even if you don't have wishlist since someone from my friendlist offered me one of mine. Is this a new feature?
Hello how's your day? Personally I'm about to kms
>>58337358At least it's something useful...When I tried a Lilian they gave me a Rocky Helmet.
>>58337358I missed an FA jellyfish Lusamine the other day but 2 hourglasses is better than random dupe card I don't need I guess
Now I'm only missing FA oak and ai'll have all the cards I give a shit about, but I wouldn't be opposed to a second Lillie.
Game is too fast. Game is not fun.
>Every Deluxe EX pack has been netting 1000 shinedust+ because of the ex fodderIf we do get 2* trading, I could see it being B1. And they'd definitely be priming us right now for some extremely expensive trades.
Suicune really makes the game unfun as fuck. Making a card that punishes you for playing the fucking game is such a retarded decision. It should have done 30 base damage with 10 for each additional benched mon. 60 damage within your control for 2 energy is still respectable given its effect is still fucking broken. Upper limit of 90 feels fair even if it's annoying still that you take extra damage for each benched mon.
>>58337536It's not Suicune, it's Greninja. Suicune pure shit without that bench ping.
>>58337536agreed. mega evolutions will fix hopefully>>58337513they need to put another game option with more cards
this brew is perfect for a low IQ player like me
>>58337545Well yeah, but they designed the card knowing Greninja was already generously used so they can't just balance it in a vacuum. Greninja being a powerful sidekick to Suicune means Suicune needs to just do less damage in general. Even toning the damage down as much as I suggested would still make it powerful since 2x Greninja + Suicune packs a punch regardless. But the fact that they went with 20x benched is fucking retarded.
>>58337536Suicune is squishy and easy to exploit, a lesser threat than Starmie. Suicune's real isdue is how little they accounted for how fucking good water shuriken really is when you enable the frogs to this degree. Suicune might as well have two attacks by turn 3 or 4, good luck matching that pace without intentionally running a counter deck.
>>58337358I haven't seen a 2* in WP for about a month and a half.
>>58337563Not squishy enough. Giant Cape puts it outside of OHKO threshold for a lot of mons. Give it 120 HP. It's fucking hilarious how they thought Raikou deserved less HP. But at least they didn't give that prize to Entei.
>>58337358Just bought this with my whale points. Imma tap out from spending on this game for the remainder of this season
>>58337575Being in a position to spend that many pack points this early in the month is insane.
I've been getting filtered by Dialga ex & Solgaleo ex in solo.
Annoying when you only have one crown
>>58337606The twist will be that the next meta defining megas next season will be all stage 1s
>>58337606They're banking on you having this mentality. That's why staples like Oak and Rare Candy are in - so autism makes you wanna spent to get the matching set.
>>58337611Once we get better pokeballs
>make one (1) trade with a guy from here>daily ticket 99% of the timeThats real loyalty, thats a real hero. You know who you are.
>Mega Pikachu X>180 HP>Electric Storm (ability): At the end of each turn, every Pokemon that is not 雷 type takes 50 damage>Pikapikapika (3 energy): Flip a coin, if heads you win the matchThis will be DeNA's """"counter"""" to Suicune given how retarded they are at balancing. Suicune was probably some retard's answer to Stokezard.
Leave Suicune to me
>oh boy! I can't wait to play suicune for another month!
>>58337730This is wild
I've been saving all my hourglasses for the past 6 months.Gonna blow them all on a FA Professor Oak (even though this set sucks and the card doesn't look good)
Got my first godpack on this set, atm have FA Lilie, FA Oak, FA Solga, the immersive, 3 fucking shiny Tinas, 3 FA frogs, and a couple other 1*. If I can get Lusa I'll be fully done with this set since I give 0 fucks about crown candy.
How has my luck been so bad that I lost to the same fuckass deck on both my and my wife's accounts? I always shoot for master ball and I keep my wife at ultra ball 1 at minimum so it is odd that I saw it twice across different ranks. The deck ran solgaleo, metal energy, and any/all of raikou, entei, suicune. The idea was to build solgaleo on the bench and switch it in with its ability. I never saw this deck last season and am kinda curious about trying it now that I reached mb and pulled the new solgaleo
I haven't seen a 2* in WP since before Wisdom of Sea and Sky released.
>>58338215I haven’t seen one in 19 days
>>58338215My record of wp I saw yesterday, ordered by time:>new arceushit>corrupted Lusaminemiss>planeta suicunemissI got the card I'd least want out of this set of 3 but I did pull something
>>58338215last few days:>deluxe 2 star pikachuhit>rainbow primarenahit>rainbow dragonitemissi read somewhere they increased the chance of 4 hour glass picks?
>>58338215I haven't seen a 2* in WP since MI.
>>58338303If they’re increased they aren’t for me. As I said earlier. Haven’t seen one for 19 days and I probably check every hour or so
>using the same deck I used to get to MB last season>instantly get a 6 match losing streakThis is why I tend to stay away from games with PVP, devs just can't stop themselves from rigging it to create "engagement".
one thing that's remarkable is how dogshit rolling WP is noweveryone's got the EXes already at this point if they want them, and if you don't have a card yet then getting it from the new pack means you've only half got it, meaning there's basically only trash clogging up WPsshit's brutal
>>58338478this set is truly awful for WP.4 diamond EX mons are fucking useless. they just make the packs cost more to WP from.
>>58338215I had a hit yesterday
>Opponent has game>puts down a basic despite me only needing one pointWhy are people so bad
>>58338516>this set is truly awful for WPThere is not a single good thing about this set, so that's normal.
>seven babies in my deck>three games in a row i open with no babies>fourth game i open with five babiescan dena stop fucking with the rng dial thanks
>>58338574They really should have made Oak the gold.
Does anyone have full art Magby (ENG)? It's last 1star card I'm missing
>>58338215i've seen like six or seven from secluded springs, mostly planeta raikou and suicunedidn't hit any though
>MukInsideHer>Greninja sleeves/coin/mat>Double shiny Froakie>Shiny Giratina>Ragequits when I get Ho-Oh online instantly via Pichu + Element Switch enabling fug next turnWhat's a matter, can't handle a little meme?
>>58338619What the...
>>58338629There's a reason they expect people to pay for this mat ;)
>>58338629woahnice cock
>>58338574it's great for whaling on. bad for everything else.
>run four oricorio outs in my deck>every single time i'm up against the bird they get it online immediately while all four of my options are buried at the bottom of the deckbeginning to question why i even run these if they never actually work desu
>>58338619>losing to rayquaza meme deckGoes to show that the real problem is always going to be greninja fags. Can't wait to beat greninja ex when it gets added.
20 more pack points to 12504 more chances to naturally pull that 2* I want so I can exchange for a second copy
>>58338719What you pulling for?
>>58338215I saw my last one three weeks ago and missed. My record for most in a week was around 7 (I missed all of them).
>>58338766le fishealready have a planeta, pack points go to the rainbow but i'd like to have a matching pair of one of these if possible
>>58338782The rainbow is nice. Shame lanturn is shit
>pulled this card last night before going to bed>woke up to 12 “sent thanks for wonderpicking” notifications this morninglol
>>58338840And now I have 3 of these. These god pack fake outs..why’s the rare card always first in this set? I heard the rare card is supposed to be the 3rd one
>>58338860Forgot pic, I WISH I had three Professor Oaks
Every pvp match in either casual or ranked>Suicune GreninjaNo wonder this games profits are tanking. Also the remaining playerbase being just metafags screams volumes.
>>58338782I have a set of rainbow feesh. I'm hoping it will be easy to trade one once 2 star trades are allowed
collection is coming along nicely, should be able to buy the remainder with pack points even if i somehow don't pull a single new card between now and the 30thbut i'm still gonna keep pulling as much as i can to minimize how many months i'm gonna have to spend trading these things
>>58338919how nuch you spent piggy?
>>58338884Even if you don't metafag, they basically stopped making decent memedecks. Slowing and Dugtrio and Altaria are literally just reskinned, less efficient Silvally decks. They half-assed the specific Trainer Pokemon decks in CG so that they were all ass compared to how Blaine or Lt. Surge decks were at launch. Half of new EXs are just straight unusable from the second they're released.
>>58338961$0i just have a good amount of alts
Palkia Misty Suicune makes regular Suicune piss itself
>>58338630>>58338641Frogs don't have penises. The sperms is ejected directly from the cloaca onto the eggs.
>>58339006i've seen enough greninja cock to know that's bullshit
>already pulled lusamine and 3 shiny giratina across all of my alts>main account hasn't gotten anything above 1 star
>>58338977Imagine rewriting that Surge was usable. It was objectively worse than Mallow and as gimmicky as Kiawe and Acerola.
Finally, I can stop pulling this retarded dogshit "set"
>>58336370breh i have 6 immersive giratina and i haven't pulled an immersive since i stopped pulling from that pack
>>58339247Did you get the golden pokeball?
>>58339251hell no, and i made the mistake of crafting iono so i'll never see that pokeball ever
pro tip: if you're going second into a jap player you can always get a free unbrick on your hand by simply leaving 4 cards in itthey will red card/mars you 100% of the time even if it would be advantageous not to, such as you leading with just 1 baby and no other pokemontheir insect brains can't comprehend that you're in a bad position and will ALWAYS reset your hand for you
is it true there won't be new packs for a couple months?
I haven't played in like 8 months. How's the game these days?
>>58339274it's easily in the worst state it's ever been.
>>58339274bad
>>58339280>>58339282Amazing. Well, I'm off to try out the new Digimon game or something then lol
>>58339274the current top meta deck is a deck that basically punishes you for trying to play the game in any way whatsoever. it overshadows every single other deck by an order of magnitude, and even dedicated counter-decks barely scrape past 50% winrate against it.
>>58339286Righteous.They haven't added anything to Pocket, just cards. And every deck you may have played has been completely power crept. The only good Pokemon from launch to STS are Darkrai and Exeggcute.
>>58339292I'm genuinely curious how a deck like that even exists? What constitutes punishing all gameplay? Punishing the player for using energy or something?>>58339298Exeggcute was pretty based, I remember.
>>58339299Exeggutor has been totally power crept in favor of long neck Egg. He's still a meme, but is the closest to being a second good card from the early sets.
>>58339299Wait, I also forgot Greninja. Him and pic related have completely raped the game. Basically, if you see water in the opponent's energy pile, you're not allowed to have a bench.
>>58339299suicune ex draws cards simply for existing and does damage based on how many pokemon both players have on the bench, up to 120. its attack costs 2 energy.it's ran with greninja, who can be evolved into on turn 3 thanks to rare candy, and this actually happens quite often thanks to the insane card draw the deck has.you're essentially not allowed to have a bench, if you do have a bench your benched pokemon will be ripped to the front by greninja + cyrus and killed, and the deck also runs oricorio to completely blank 18t decks if you thought you'd be funny and just build around no bench.there are basically no options to reliably beat it, you either have to play the deck yourself or hope they brick despite having twice your card draw.
>>58339274New "expansion" (consists mostly of dupe cards) managed to ruin collecting, wonderpicking and trading simply due to DeNa's incompetence. Atleast battling didn't get even worse
>>58339314Do you bring electric energy so Oricorio can attack or just rely on greninja doing chip damage?
>>58339367nope, no electric energy. oricorio walls ex cards while greninja chips, which prevents you from getting around oricorio with things like rocky helmet or poison barb. you can't even chip it down with something like darkrai because they run irida to heal it, and they can power up giratina the entire time because they're not attacking with oricorio, so you will eventually succumb to the greninja chip + 130 swing from tina.
>>58339367Oricorio is only there to stall.
>finally get a game against a deck that isn't suicune>guzzlord flips 5 heads and deletes my entire stack of energy on arceus and wins the game off that alonei really fucking hate this game
>>58339002were they smoking crack with suicune? Its 2 energy attack might be the best in the whole game.
>>58339388fuckI hardly ever touch PvP at all anymore after making it to Master Ball that first time and getting to level 50. Doesn’t sound like I’m missing anything
i have 2 reds in my deckit's been literally 10 fucking games since i had a red in hand when i needed itcan someone explain this
>>58339305Absolutely mental card design kek. Maybe I made the right call dropping the game when I did. Though I dropped it more cuz the grind was boring.
>>58339526They haven't improved that part at all. Except now there's a ranked mode to make you rip your hair out.
>>58339534I was around for a bit of ranked, I think. Or maybe it was a win streak event I'm thinking of.
>>58339540Ranked replaced the win streak events. The only good thing about it is that you get a good amount of hourglasses for even the middle ranks.
>>58339548>you get a good amount of hourglassesThat certainly doesn't sound familiar, so I guess it was the winstreak events I'm thinking of kek
>>58339484Probably
>>58339484It's not the best attack damagewise. There are stronger, but the way it makes your opponent plays is ridiculous.
>>58339563Are you not playing against anyone else using the same deck? Hard to believe this deck is being used that much if you’re able to win 11 in a row even with mirror matches..
>>58339598A lot of Sui fags but the average player is retarded. Plus I'm running this. this kind of ease is why i don't run meta but fuck this month
>>58339598he's probably just in lower ranks (or lucky with the mirror)i'm in ultra 4 right now and suicune is about 2/3rds of the decks i run into.
>>58339627Nah ultra 4.
Classic
>>58339623Why Palkia over Giratina? Is it just for the Misty flips?
>>58339675Try something new. Decent enough baby killer if need be. Misty can make you auto win as usual. Never really been a big fan of Gira
>>58339267The meta is very healthy so we won't get any new packs until 3nd anniversary.
Anyone got a pichu for trade? I only have one and want the second for bird memes. Tell me what you want to trade and I'll see if I have it. Also looking for 4d Suicune EX, same deal.5931010787580823
>>58339844Suicune for Stokezard?
>>58339860Sure thing, just send the inv
>>58339924Sent
>decide to open some of the new pack on an alt to see if I get any 1* to trade since the set is limited>actually get a godpack with the candyFucking lmao, shame too, if it was all 2* it might have showed up in my WP.
>>58339998Thanks for the trade. Regular cune was the last diamond card I was missing from the set, I got immersive and 2 of the other dogs before normal.
>used to play greninja with articuno in the beginning of the game>used to play greninja with honchkrow during drudd meta>currently have a greninja deck with umbreon for bench swap shenanigansSucks because Greninja is genuinely a fun card to build decks around. But meta whores just jam it into already broken decks to just top them off with extra chip damage.
>>58339623Looks fun anon, ill try this.
>>58340085Greninja was balanced before rare candy shat up the game
I fucking love this bird. Probably a paypig too, double golden ball on top of the solga.
>>58340160>Bitches about SolGAYleo>Uses SilvallySloppaF-F-F-FAGGOT
>>58340170average 'tina tard
>>58340170Where did I botch about Solga? I was mocking the fact he was a paypig who opened with cosmog + candy going second and yet a single yellow bird made him concede before I even got a single point.
I actually really like the way the reverse foil cards look, dunno if this is an unpopular opinion
pocket threads are moving slow as fuck, i guess the game isn't doing so hot anymore huh
>>58340312I have spent around $120 on the deluxe set and now I’m actually a bit nervous that the game may be shut down before the end of 2026
>>58340321Please tell me you’re joking. There is no reason to spend money on this game.
>>58340312>>58340321It makes too much money from Jap whales to ever shut down. If the big "anniversary update" is a flop, it'll probably just be put on maintenance mode with the same low effort bullshit cycle we have, but somehow even lazier. Fewer rainbow rares, more rerun packs, rerunning premium cosmetics, no new card mechanics at all.
>>58338629>>58338641>>58339006
>>58340337Audible kek
>>58340120Greninja has always been busted. If anything, Rare Candy made other Stage 2 mons more viable.GA NOEX was just Greninja: the format.
>>58340331I wish I was joking. To be fair, I have two of the 3 star Pikachu cards, 2 shiny Darkrais, 3 shiny Giratinas, and 2 two star Dialga cards on top of all this other stuff
>>58340402Greninja wasn't even good with rare candy. It's the consistency due to card draw + cyrus because of sylveon/suicune that made it good
>>58340409Forgot pic
>>58340409>>58340411If you spent money, you should at least make a Youtube channel and post gameplay videos. Otherwise you’re basically throwing money away once the game inevitably shuts down in the future.
>>58340239I don't hate their appearance, but I don't like how they work.I think they should occupy the flair slot instead of being separate things.My belly is telling me that now at the early months of B they're going to slow down with the shinies and the foils will become the new pack fillers.
>>58340419What kinda gameplay videos? Just opening up packs or doing battles? I don’t even do many battles these days. >>58340422I also like the shinies a lot so I hope this isn’t the case
>>58340504Pack openings, card hunts, WPs and so on I guess.
After I was able to somehow WP one yesterday I pull another 2 star Solgaleo in my free pack today
>>58340504>Just opening up packs or doing battles?Both
>>58340616I saw the game rank #1 recently on japans app ranking so its obviously still making more than enough money. Wouldnt be surprised if other regions cut spending tho
>>58337128Alola will never be surpassed. No matter what. In fact, cancel that statement. The only way they could top Alola is returning there.
7k cards pulled and still haven't got a single god pack, never even seen one in a wonder pick
>>58337124+60hp
>>58340971well the odds are 1/2000 packs so you're still well within the expected rangein fact if you pulled one right now you'd be above average
WP was nice to me todayany brews for this fine gentleman?
>have 1 (one) card in hand, an eevee i drew off another eevee>opponent red cards me (with one fucking card in my hand)>i draw oak, sylveon, and flareon exi swear, japs are so insanely trigger-happy with this fucking card. the amount of times i've had a complete brick opener solved for me by the other guy playing red card turn 1 and giving me ramp targets for my lone baby is just ludicrous.people need to learn to not rock the boat when you're already in a winning position.
