>Fire: M-Blaziken>Grass: M-Pinsir>Water: M-Gyarados>Psychic: M-Altaria>Dark: M-Absol>Colorless: M-Pidgeot (promo)>Fighting & Steel don't get a megaWhy, though?
>>58590323>each pack has two megas>fighting and steel left out so that they can have two megas for b1a and lucario can be the poster boy for the packsimple as
>>58590333It's mega charizard
If entei was an actual good attacker like suicune, it would be a good deck. Suicune is more than drawing cards, it still has the best 2 energy attack in the game. It actively forces your opponent to not place cards on the bench. Entei’s side effect NEVER comes into play
i have a 0% winrate against the hydriegon deck, what the fuck am i supposed to do against that shit lol. Is this the only card that is consistently doing turn 1 130dmg?
>>58590357use babieshydreigon eats shit to chingling
>>58590323>>58590333I can see them making a set with 2 packs, and 2 megas per pack.M-Loppuny for Fighting, M-Lucario for Stell, M-Kangaskhan for a non promo normal and then M-Charizard X for Dragon.
>>58590347if entei was good then it wouldn't need mega blaziken. the deck sucks because the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
Don't let your dreams be dreams
Anyone got a spare copycat or 2? Having terrible luck pulling gyarados packs.Just ask for whatever 2 diamond, I probably have it0358711512057924
>>58590412That's your alt right?
>it's that time of day where anon posts him trading his alt as if he got a good deal on a tradewowie zowie look at this deal! aren't you guys so jealous of my ability to get good trades?
>>58590421you got a 2 diamond may or lisia? I'll trade a copycat for that
>>58590421added, pikachu icondusclops or prank spinner would be preferred if you have them, i'm trying to avoid ever pulling another blaziken packif not then just send whatever
>>58590421thanks for the spinner, helps a lot
>>58590444Thanks m8>>58590441Nah, just traded my 2nd copy of May to someone on pokehubGot my 2 copycats

>>58590554top right
>>58590554Top middle
>>58590580i trusted you, anon...oh well. whimsicott isn't a huge loss.

Dust...I need dust...
Mega Blaziken fags really are the thinnest of skinned. Sure isn't the first and won't be the last I had to deal with this behavior.
How do I trade my Chinese Sabrina for a JPN/ENG/FRA one?
>>58590587I'm sorry
I really want a copy of Hala for my binder, but only if I pull or WP him. I'll be damned if I waste dust trading for him.
What would you do? My alt has enough dust for a 2-star trade to my main account.>planeta Greninja>full art Copycat>wait and keep pulling for a rainbow Jolteon
>>58590638definitely copycat, it's the most broadly useful.
>>58590576it's not quite there but it's definitely closethe only issue is that only decks without draw engines need it and in matches where opp isn't running a draw engine there's a lot variance on whether it does anything or not
I just double KO a mega blaziquen with Rhampados and...I lost? Why? The last time i did that it ended in a tie! Bith had one point left to win! WHY IT WASN'T A TIE?!
looking for beautifly, dustox, ho-oh, cobalion, and aegislash.offering chingling, jirachi, and hydreigon to make it worth your while.help me fill out my blaziken pack dex without having to touch that shit again, please.
New drifblim brew just dropped
>>58590737heh I hadn't thought of using Ho-ohI'll give that a try later, double Indeedee has been working fine so far
>>58590728in the event of a double KO like that, if one side has pokemon left on the bench and the other doesn't, the side with pokemon left wins. basically, you won once (got to three points) but your opponent won twice (you had no pokemon AND he got to three points) so he ultimately won the game.
>>58590750OH FOR FUCK SAKE!
>>58590747Post your brew
>>58590737what does ho-oh do here
Can someone post the trading tier list again?
>>58590758just something i whipped up for fun yesterday >>58583944>>58590760Drifblim gains more power for each energy, not just Psychic energy. It's the same as how Celebi ex works
>>58590760Ramps drifblim
>first explorer >the sophocles >now thisIM GOING TO FUCKING KILL MYSELF AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>58590780explorer is good tho
>>58590771ohi didn't know that, the new drifblim didn't even register in my head as a cardho-oh makes sense then, but wouldn't blissey be better since it can actually take a hit?
Humiliation ritualGuess which ones were my pulls from god picks>>58590785And yet I'm stuck with two of this faggot and no basically waifus
>>58590780Trade it, I managed to trade all the MALES and old granny I had for waifus and an Adaman (at least he works on my steel deck).
>>58590780should've gotten it day 1 when the old man lovers were looking to grab one for their collection. i got a PCL for mine.
>>58590780Budding Explorer is adorbs though, the art is cute! I sympathise with the niche-ness of your full art trainers though. There will always be someone looking for them though, you just have to be patient!
>>58590802Nigga WHERE
>>58590807It is cute I'm actually most angry that even in Mew meta you didn't need two of and that I got both in my one god pack
>people go nuts for waifu cards>but the two most in-demand cards in the entire game are both old dudesfunny to think about.
>>58590790Yeah Blissey operates with the same attack power as Drifblim and is bulkier and colorless. Drifblim sets up more easily thanks to lower attack cost and Fantina however, so it can start attacking early for 60 by turn 3 if needed
>>58590818He's not old...
>>58590576if not now, then later for sure. draw power is the strongest effect in the game, and as they add more sources of it the meta will become more saturated with draw power over time. the more draw power they add, the better copycat becomes.
>>58590826cyrus is the inverse of a 1000-year-old loli, he's a 27-year-old oji-san.
>>58590808Poke hub.>Inb4 use poke tradeI don't like its UI, it reminds me reddit's UI which is fucking uncomfortable.
>>58590638I can trade a rainbow Jolteon to your main if you've got anything halfway decent
Where is that trading tier list of the valuable trainers?
>>58590906
Finally got one Greninja Ex. Is it any good?
I had to pull packs until I paid for Mantyke with pack points. Do I really need two? Or can I just have one and use manaphy as a budget second
>>58590929I have 3 Sabrina's should I trade down for a leaf?
>>58590906>oak>cyrus>may, lisia, copycat, dx lillie>sabrina, mars>irida>red, PCL>leaf, dx lusamine, erika, hat lillie>silver, guzma, gio>the restignore anyone who tells you sabrina or mars are on the same level as the ones above them. i spent days trying to trade sabrina/mars for may and had no success, but after i pulled a dupe lisia i got a trade for may within ten minutes. there's a gap there, no doubt.
>>58590933suicune greninja giratina runs one nowuse it to rotate between suicunes and heal off with irida while you draw your entire deck
>>58590947Nah, id save it.
What just happsy4jened¿???????
>>58590965Decent god pack
>>58590945you basically need two for any competent deck, it's better than manaphy because it works going first. but if i were you i'd trade for one, it's not worth pulling more secluded springs for it.
>>58590971God pack?
>>58590965>may and immersive mega blazikenthis is probably as good as it gets for a godpack from mega rising blaziken, congrats anon.
>>58590981Thanks I've been playing since release never saw a pack like this
>>585909771 in 2000 chance of pulling a pack with 5 cards of 1* rarity or above The odds of pulling the one you pulled ? Probably far more rare
>>58590929thanks nigga
>>58590977there's 1/2000 odds when you pull a pack for it to be what's known as a "godpack" where every card is a minimum of one star, with equal odds for all of them.
>>58590887Thanks but all I've got is Planeta Paldean Clodsire, Planeta Alolan Muk, Travelling Merchant and Deluxe Palkia? And I don't pretend to think they're worth a RR Jolteon lolIt'll turn up... hopefully...
Anyone willing to trade me 2 star Cyrus for something from this new set?
>>58591016depends on what you have?
>>58591016Sure. What have you got?
>>58591016you can get a cyrus for may or copycat. might take some effort though.>>585910241250 pack points my man, he has essentially every card at once.
>>58591024>>58591026I have enough pack points for anything you desire>>58591032This guy gets it
I wish I could trash one of my shit crowns to buy the cosmetics, but I would need three (tres) (san) (drei) (trois) of the same fucking one in order to do so. AND pay a shitton of shinedust for the privilege of doing so. What the fuck.
>people are actually willingly offering DX pack Lillie+another full art trainer for ResearchYeah it's wraps, demanding is one thing but people with 2for1Oak usernames giving away these trainers without anyone demanding for it is crazy
>>58591055people are fucking desperate dude, oaks have already almost entirely dried up. nobody is trading them anymore, even cyrus holders can't get a trade. offering more cards is all they've got left.altfags like myself stay winning eternally.
>>58591026>>58591024C-copycat or?..
>been checking WP every 15-30 mins as usual>decide to scroll to the bottom>this somehow slipped past me and was in the expired WP sectionHot damn
>>58591120noice
>>58591055Dena is going to have a rerun of Oak for Christmas
>>58591120nice pick, but who's still pulling GA?
>>58591099It can't go on like this, can it ?
>>58590965Wow fantastic godpack
>>58591139why not
>>58591136they won't rerun oak until deluxe pack returns for the 2 year anniversary. that's not to say they won't run a different professor's research, though.
>>58591120What sort of based individual is still pulling GA
>>58591148>>58591139https://youtu.be/Kou3MoGuvEM?si=0rbj_PYwTisT9uhC
>>58591136I hope we get Prof Sycamore (normal + full art) in the next booster pack, now THAT would be a fun chase card. Fuck Oak.
Honestly I like betting everything on a coin flip. Is there any way to help build up energy in a metal mon or is it that just saved for the popular types?
>>58591192Dialga I guess?
>>58591192Where have you been broThe way is dialga
>>58591192Dialga's your only hope here
WHY THE FUCK IS SEARCH BY BOOSTER PACK BUTTON IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT NOT WORK RIGHTIT FUCKING MIXES ALL THE PACKS TOGETHER AND SEPARATES BY ENERGYWHAT THE FUCKING FUCK
>>58591192it's a shame dialga sucks
>>58591199I only started at the premier of deluxe pack and I guess I haven't really even seen >>58591198>>58591200Shit that's gonna be expensive. Alright then
WHY THE FUCK DOESNT THE "DO NOT ASK AGAIN" MESSAGE ON POKETRADE GO AWAYI HAVE TO INDIVIDUALLY SELECT BOTH PACKS FOR EVERY SINGLE CARD FOR WISHLIST OR TRADEWHAT THE FUCKING FUCK
>>58591215bro don't trade for dialga, that's a waste of dusti'm sure people here have spares and can just share them to you
>>585912154956252019672865add my alt here, i'll share you a couple dialga.
>>58591245Just added you. I'm the Snorlax >>58591228That's true I suppose. Always good to throw oneself on the kindness of strangers. Like this nice anon right here
Remember when people thought babies would be worthless?
>>58591290I am pleasantly surprised by the diversity they brought to the game. We need more babies to generate different energy though
new blaziken cook? It seems to be doing well
>>58591219Deluxe pack fucked everything up
When does ranked start again
>>58591301Smoochum is right there to help build up psychics even more. Or mime JR. Do you think there will ever be an appeal to them not just vomiting energy into the bench or should that be their only role?
Uh what the fuck? Maybe I should brew the bara cat...
Is this a good amount of wins in the grand scheme of things
>>58591282sent one dialga, i'll send the second after tonight's reset.hope you have fun with them, anon. better than leaving them to rot on an account i'll never use for battles.
>>58590737Drifblim would have been so much better if they just gave it 130 HP instead. It doesn't make sense - the whole gimmick of this Pokemon is that it's a huge HP sponge so why the fuck didn't they translate that here? It wouldn't break the fucking card, would just give it a fighting chance since it skirts through some breakpoints. Still needs a lot of setup in order to do anything at all.
>>585913277-1 now
>>58591373What's your strat with this deck?>>58591333I like the variety with Chingling, Tyrogue, Smoochum. They're great wildcards.
>>58591352I appreciate it deeply, anon. I have never actually made a steel deck but I have a fair number of cards so this might be the kick I need to get one moving
>>58591333Chingling already provides huge support without energy vomitting. It's deceptively powerful cause you may think "eh, who cares, I can't red card or pokeball for one turn. Big deal." And then you find yourself with a bricked starting hand against it, and your opponent red cards your 2 pokeballs back into the deck before you can use them.
>>58591390chingling can be fucking nasty, yeah. especially if they copycat your big hand, and even more so if they then red card your big hand away.
>>58591388Lead with heatmor, damage targets in the back and set them up for kos. Rocky helmet and poison barb pressure oricorio into not attacking. Its pretty cool
>>58591341it doesnt display your loss record so there's really no way to tell
Is mega altaria mega indeed de the best deck in the game
here's how we make whimsicott good: add pokemon with 5 retreat cost
>>58591470I like the Sylveon variant more. Indeedee's healing feels insignificant.
>>58591470the best deck right now is either darkrai/mega absol or suicune/greninja exbut altaria is up there for sure
>>58591476No,.we just need support pokemon that increase retreat cost
why is no one building altaria with dusknoir to heal?
>>58591513People were theorizing about terrain cards in a past thread. Something. They effects both teams. Seems like it would be a fun addition that could mess with things. Hell it could just be an item. Heavy Incense, increase retreat cost for both currently active pokemon.
>>58591526because altaria wants a lot of basics to fuel its attack, and dusknoir takes up a lot of card space. it also kills itself just by healing so it doesn't pair well with other frail basics like babies or jirachi which altaria loves to have.
>>58591338why are you chinese
thoughts on shiny oricorio? i kind of like it which is rare for shinies, the white and yellow color scheme actually works with the shiny background and border.the full art is still better, though.
>>58591578Trade fodder for gyarados
>made alt just to quickly get a shiny Oricorio and Zeraora>shiny Drowzee>shiny Litten x2>shiny Pikachu ex x2>shiny Arceus ex x2whyyyyyy
>>58591584well i've got three of them, so i should probably do that.
>>58591611I can give you a cute lil Farfetch'd for one ;_;
>>58591623if not for the exorbitant dust cost of trading 1-star shinies, i might give these away.but i just can't justify the 10k. sorry.
>>58591290>>58591301attack babies need to be better (chingling excluded)
i have 650 pack points for deluxe pack on my main, and i'm considering using them to get a full set of foils for my magnezone oricorio deck. is there any reason i should keep the points? i have playsets of the full art trainers already, and if dena reruns deluxe pack for the second anniversary i'm certainly not going to be pulling it again when i could be pulling deluxe pack 2.
>>58591527Stadium cards like the real tcg
>>58591700the card that would save pocket
>>58591708Pocket cannot be saved
>>58591694fuck it, do what makes you happy now anon
>>58591694post that dick boy
>>58590929Man I will never get rid of Hau
>>58591708>saveEvery Mega would be completely unaffected. Greninja and Oricorio would be completely unaffected. It would only affect Darkrai, Giratina, and Suicune.
>card on friend’s wishlist>offer card>trade declined>several days later>other card on same friend’s wishlist>offer card>trade declinedWELL THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT, MANI KNOW YOU’RE HERE
>>58591777Don't lose hope anon! I got rid of Looker! Yeah, for an Adaman because he actually looks cool and my Metal deck uses him but it's still possible!
>>58591812Maybe they don't have anything you put in your wishlist.
>>58591813I have two Hau
>>58591823And I had two Wills and they are now gone!
>>58591741yeah, that's what i'm thinking. they'll probably never consolidate pack points, it would make it too easy to get crowns. and aside from that there's nothing i'm really interested in from deluxe pack, even an oak as trade fodder isn't worth pulling another 120 packs of the set and i'm never getting a rare candy anyway. i'm just gonna go for it.>>58591743here's the list. it's not my invention, i stole the list from that dude who topped a tourney with it because i always loved the deck and was curious what made it relevant again. chingling + copycat are the main changes to the list from back in the day, and they work really well in it. chingling helps you force big hands for copycat and stall to draw oricorio or magneton, and copycat itself is really good in a stage 2 deck that doesn't run rare candy. it's crazy consistent.
>>58591777>decidueye rises to prominence again>doesn't use hauwhat a piece of shit card. i'm sorry you're stuck with him, anon.
>>58590929granny doesn't deserve bottom tier, i'd take her over something like a blue because she contributes to an emblem.ilima is also only limited by the current lack of good colorless cards, his effect is neither shit nor specific to shit cards like the rest of them are. i'd much rather trade for him than for a blue.
>bother to actually play the Even Matches for the first time since Triumphant Light>Literally everyone ends all their 0-2 matches by fully evolving every Pokemon they have on the bench, equipping Rocky Helmet, using 3 Potions, using every ability, and THEN attacking my fucking Koffing for 100+ damage with type advantage to winThis isn't even fucking Meta trolling; this is just being plain disrespectful. At least I remember why I never actually PLAY TCGs.
>>58591595if you're still there anon I can trade you one.
>>58591869>koffingYou're playing a deck that's a year outdated and wasn't even that good in the first place, what the fuck do you expect?
>"Save view settings">doesn't fucking save the settingWhat's the point if I have to switch that option every time I go back to check the list?
>>58591872Here is my code btw 8798669242276427
>>58591879Regular steamrolling with a better deck instead of dickish showboating.I will say, my funniest win was against an Oricorio Only deck. Apparently just letting Darkrai sit on the bench while I put Memory Light on Muk was too much.
>>58591905Got a good muk brew?
>eevee is one of the only 1* shinies I like because I like the silver color on it>It's already been powercrept by a new version of itself
>>58591950i feel your pain as someone who liked the 1* eevee from eevee groveby the time i could trade for a second copy it was already worthless thanks to the find a friend eevee
Some retard shared some irrelevant garbage with me and since I cant decline I got locked out of receiving shares for today. This feature wasnt thought through as well as it should have been
Ice Pop when?
Subbing 1 coms for a second cyrus has only felt like a strict improvement so far.2 elemental switches has felt excessive, think I'll drop 1 for a Red or somethingJolteon btw
>>58591946Fuck no; it's literally Genetic Apex Grimer, Muk, Koffing, Wheezing, with Nihilego and Darkrai for back up. I have no illusions that its a shit deck. I'm just surprised that being a dick is, like, THE thing to do.
>they add my boy corviknight to the game>he gets a full art>the card itself is ridiculously, impossibly, comically fucking badwhy manjust don't add corv if you're going to shit on him this hard
>>58592013>what if we made a ramp card for an archetype that only has 1 source of ramp that is slow and completely unviable in the current meta>also it's a stage 3Genuine insanity
I want to play decidueye with Hau but Meowscarada feels better
Any anons feeling charitable and willing to trade a hat Lillie for fodder?
>>58592013gotta wait for the Galar set
>>58592092Man can you imagine the drop in players during the Galar set
>>58592069>not playing Skill Dive Rowlet/Dartriz to set up Pierce the PainCome now. At least play the deck correctly before deciding it doesnt work.
Die foul fowl
Do I need copycat in a Entei/Blaziken deck?
>>58592180No.
>>58592180Copycat isn't as effective if you have a big hand when using it so it's a bit anti-synergistic with Entei. Copycat is better in decks with more pokemon to place on the bench first so you can get the highest level of benefit.
I can't believe my need for dust forced me to battle tryhards in this stupid event, I managed to win 20 times, how many more dust rewards are left?
>>58592226just five more and you'll be finished.
>>58592245No more dust? NOOOOOOO! I WANNA TRADE!
which of the promo battles should I farm for exs so I can get shine dust?
>>58591970Too complicated for mobile users.
>>58592013So it's just a slightly better Skarmory that is also fucking expensive to maintain and get moving and a stage 3Damn. Sure sounds like they hate him.
>>58592280that doesnt sound like a better Skarmory. Hell, I'd say Probopass is better than this.
How's the new Luxray? I think it's the only deck I have all the pieces for right now.
>>58592315luxray/oricorio is pretty good. it only uses one of the new luxray though, the other is the STS one.
>>58592069I just dont think Hau fits decidueye ex here. It only affects the active. I feel like 9 times out 10 you're going to need to attack twice the active mega or other ex anyway
LF: 4 diamond pinsir, jolteonBut i only have old ex cards
>>58592372hau was mainly good for the silvally matchup, which isn't relevant anymore.
>AI puts the 0 energy oricorio up front instead of the oricorio with 2 energy on iti swear this thing was programmed to be shit on purpose
>>58592416I ran into 1 silvally today and i sniped it with baby decidueye and he conceded
Anyone have shiny Yanma to trade me
Anyone else doing STONKS here?I managed to trade a spare PLANETA Mega Blaziken for a Sabrina and a spare Leaf for a DX Lillie.I managed to pull a Lisia, a May and a Rainbow Mega Absol. Should I trade it for a Mars/Cyrus?
>>58592013even fucking -50 isn't going to let it survive two attacks from a mega blaziken/altaria, when are they going to realize damage reduction is worthless
>>58592532Damage reduction is fine as an extra effect, like when Golem used it, but the problem is they always make it "cost" something like discarding energy besides Golem. As a passive ability is better, but then they make the reduction negligible to avoid it being OP. Honestly the retard helmet tool is great for fat mons.
>>58592528I cant even basic ass 4 diamond ex for an ex thats in their fucking wishlist
>>58592545skarm ex has unconditional no-cost damage reduction.
>>58591970>use Will>use Lucky Ice Pop as many times as you like until full HPthis totally wouldn't be awful to fight against
Is mega Pinsir playable?
>>58592578nah, it's pretty shit.
>>58592577>many times as youTechnically, as you can only bring two wills, you only have two ensure uses of the ice cream per game.
>>58592595Fuck I'm just getting all the shit ones then:>2 Gyarados>2 Pinsir>1 Ampharos>1 Absol
>>58591970will only works on one flip, so you'd be getting 40 hp back guaranteed with diminishing odds from then on. That's not amazing by any stretch of the imagination.
I don't know if this is one of you guys, but I'm out of Stamina
>>58592608absol is the best mega in the set, funny enough.
>>58592611Whoops, forgot the pic.
>>58592613It's better than Blaziken? I keep hearing that one's busted.Absol is pretty good but with only one copy I can't figure out a great deck for it. Right now I'm just using it with Hydregion.
Just fixed Blaziken decks.
>>58592618you're a bit out of date. blaziken's a total jobber, absol is the best followed by altaria and in fact even ampharos is putting up better results than blaziken.
>>58592618Yea, it's better than Blaziken. Blaziken is strong of you get its timing right but going first as a mega often means you're at a disadvantage so being fast to come out is often to its own detriment. You're relying on your opponent bricking and not getting their mega by the time you have Blaziken up front and taking points. If they have an answer to Blaziken already (and there are many answers to it) or an answer within 1 turn or so of you getting Blaziken, then your chicken is toast.
Alright boys, where's the horse?
>>58592645bottom right, always bottom right.unless it's top right
>>58592639Oddly enough that's basically how Gyarados plays but without the risk of your Magikarp and Mantyke getting killed instantly.
>>58592645middle
>>58592645He's running to the left, so that means he isn't going to be in this WP and will instead be replaced by an hourglass.
>>58592645I hope you miss it.
>>58592645I can clearly see it on the bottom right
>>58592652Which is why Gyarados is the worst of the megas. I think even Pinsir is better than it? At least Pinsir has support mons that it c an rely on. Gyarados is like purely Gyarados and non-attackers because of its gigantic energy costs, so a single dancing electric chicken can pompom its way to victory. People tried getting it to work with Milotic but it can't even oneshot Oricorio, is unreliable to get out, and takes too much energy away from Gyarados so even if you take Oricorio out then you don't have your nuke ready for whatever Oricorio is covering for.
Welp it was bottom left, got torchic instead. This does make me thing that the clocks should let you reroll a WP instead of being used to recover an expired one. Hell WPs in general are so poorly implemented.
>>58592668yeah, it's the worst. in the 200-man tourney yesterday, not a single person played mega gyarados. there were 2 pinsir players and 7 ampharos players, but not a single gyarados player. more people played fucking dragalge and melmetal than gyarados.
>>58592645Walking into a bar.
>missed rainbow absol this morning>missed rainbow dragalge just nowi mean on the one hand it's cool to get two 2* WPs in one day and have them both be nice-looking cards at that, but i wish i got at least one of them. fuck.
>>58592759>wasting hourglasses when sneak peak starts in just a few hours
>>58592811i only bother to WP when i see a 2* so i have like 700 glasses, i don't give a shit about potentially wasting them. if it was going to last until after reset i would've waited, but it was a 30-minute WP.
>>58592759Yesterday I saw:RR Rapidash - gotRR Hitmonchan - missRR Greninja - missGreninja would have hurt more if I didn't already have one. Trade fodder would have helped
>trying to trade for a rainbow tinkaton because i'm building a collection in every language>offer a few things on his wishlist, all certainly more valuable than tinkaton but he's the only guy offering one in the language i need>he tells me "no i want cyrus"the people on these shitty trading apps are fucking delusional. goddamn.
Lucky pull today. >>58591327>poison barb Why? To force a retreat? I don’t get the benefit over another helmet. Oh well I’ll give it a shot, looks neat otherwise.
I got these for trade. Let me know what you're looking for and what you got to offer. I'm hunting Brock, Misty, Sabrina, and Blaine. That's all I need left for the Kanto Gym Leader set.
>>58592969Also I'm open to other trades if you're trying for your favorite mon etc.
>>58592947why is she covered in condoms with her legs spread?...
Where do you guys trade your cards?
>>58592969Where did you get that planeta lugia
>>58592811SNEAKPEEKIS SHITNobody cares you bitch, it's hardly an event and isn't worth wasting hourglasses on
>>58593014Pulling from Lugia packs for the stupid Shiny Gyarados. I wanted to be an Emblem Whore but Deluxe EX is not completable.
>>58593036>Deluxe EX is not completablethat's quitter talk.
>>58593057>58593057I only buy gold for sales and like 10 bucks per set just to get a head start. I have premium but I have only bought 1 mat set. Even then I have all the other sets basic dexes completed and I am generally happy with having at least 2 ex of the A set ones. Also I'm on a tight budget so I ain't really willing to drop the big whale cash. Maybe if I wasn't a great ball shitter I'd be more motivated. Even then I still got fucking 2 shiny Giratinas and 2 shiny Darkrai. I just don't got that gatcha blood in me coach. Bench me.

>>58592947>what are we gonna do on the bed?>pomf
did you make any nice trades today, anons? i traded my spare planeta greninja for a rainbow darkrai. everyone offering an english darkrai only wanted rainbow greninja, but there were several people offering a japanese darkrai that wanted the planeta as well. greninja must be way more popular over there.
>>58590576Not quite. You are almost never going to want to resolve Copycat twice in one match, so there's very dubious value to running two. There are plenty of duels in which you'll want Cyrus to drag two cowards back out over the match or even the same coward back out twice, so owning two of him makes sense. And you have literally zero reason to not try to resolve Oak as many times in a game as you physically can. She is close, though.
>>58592984Because she's a well trained slut or are you just ignorant to the clear message TPC is depicting to small children (a mind bomb that will explode if they try to watch human porn with a similar theme).
>>58590826>Age: 27This mother fucker is a YEAR younger than me. Was his life really that fucking miserable?
>>58593102>you are almost never going to want to resolve copycat twice in one matchi dunno, i run two copies in my magnezone/funnybird deck and i find myself using both more often than not. it's probably just deck-dependent.
>>58593114What no Lopussy does to a man.
>>58592984because whimsicott is a WHORE. she even gets naked in the anime.
Show me your pretty and shiny Whale decks.
I got hosed. Any chance this event will come back next year or should I spend poke gold to wrap up the promos I’m missing?
Oak art isn't even goodNobody would give a shit if he wasn't a full art of the best card in the game The very second they release Professor's Research but Sonia or Juniper or even fucking Kukui or some shit Oakfags commit mass suic
>>58593102>You are almost never going to want to resolve Copycat twice in one matchI think this is wrong
>>58593078i'm a premiumfag myself and i fully intend to complete it solely through trading. two-diamond foils and below are free to trade so it should be very easy to find people to swap them around, there are no four-diamond foils, and i'm only missing 16 3-diamond foils so that's only 19k dust. all the non-foils are getting dex-merged next year anyway so they don't matter.
>>58593141If they could let me give you those I would. I started a month late so only had to do one promo catch up. I got multiples of everything else. The limited runs are hella gay when they're more than alternate art.
>>58593149I agree. Your luck would have to be the worst imaginable to be a premium fag and not get most of what you want while using sites that help you track what to pull.
>>58592947>>58592984>>58593125>>58593108What the fuck were they thinking with this illustration? On a bed too, nonetheless. Definitely could have picked a better position/location/streamers that didn't look so uh...that shaped. It's a cute card but once you see it you can't unsee it.
>>58593159They were thinking pokefuckers would spend money to collect it. Are they wrong?
>>58592969I would give Blaine for Penny
>>58593168You got it. Friend Code is: 4722-6504-1509-9656
>>58593032Agreed. Sneak peek is shit. They should let you choose when to activate it, at the very least. It's not like it guarantees you'll get what you want. It just makes your odds 1/4 instead of 1/5 so why the fuck are they so stingy with it? Last time it happened , it activated exclusively with my free promo pulls that I didn't give a fuck about, even if I purposefully avoided the promo pull until I tried for something else. So I don't even carte about it anymore. It doesn't fucking matter. It may as well not even exist as an event. I don't think I've ever had it reveal something noteworthy for me or improve my odds much. First pick is a preview of shit, second pick is mega shit. The Full Art is always the card not peeked or picked either way and you wasted hourglasses trying,
>>58593177Yup. It should just be an occasional event to basically be able to buy what you want with hourglasses. Even if it wasn't assured if it did go off it'd be fun.
>>58593141it's probably a tossup between them not bringing it back, and them bringing it back at the same time as the promo-B rerun for maximum FOMO.i got 2 of everything, had to use my ticket on a second cresselia because it took me 50 fucking packs to pull my first one and i was already dipping into my free gold reserves at that point.completely out of glasses now, but i caught up on the five sets of promos i missed.
>>58593177>1/4it's 2/5, retard. are you seriously getting filtered by the monty hall problem?
>>58593082>M-Lucario for Fighting,WRONG. We're getting MEGA MEWTWO-X>M-Metagross for SteelWRONG. We're getting MEGA STEELIX (with 6 energy attack that does 100 damage, discards 6 energies, and reduced the damage you take next turn by 50 - also 7 retreat cost)>M-Kangaskhan for a non promo normalWRONG. We're getting M-LOPBUNNY >and then M-Zygarde X for Dragon.WRONG AGAIN BUCKO. We're getting M-AMPHAROS AGAIN
>>58593193The card you sneak peak is out of the equation, because there is a 0% chance you would pick it again.
>>58593202oh my god, you really are that stupid.
>>58593200Dubs of Supreme Shitposting.
>>58593205The second selection is practically an entirely new one. You know one of the cards, so you're not picking it. It's a 1/4 chance you get what you want after that.
>>58593175Sent Friend Request.IGN: [Clodd]
>>58593213Offer returned. Also I got that Mewtwo you're looking for.
>>58593213And thank you very much. Enjoy your new Penny.
>>58593218Used my last trade energy for the day so cant at the moment. Maybe at some point I'll shoot you Brock or something for it.I got you on my friends list.
>>58593234I'll keep brock on my wishlist so you'll see it when you can. I think I got 1 trade energy left as well.
Hehe.. armpits and pecs
>run into non ex-fags>give thanks>send friend requestsslow painful death to all ex fags
>>58593252If they made a non-ex or even gym leader style meta I'd totally ladder that shit and try hard.
I did it, I won the 25 battles you need to get all the missions in the emblem event, all them using this deck (outdated pic, change the Pokemon communications with a Guzma).
>>58593260Oh, also change one sabrina with a cyrus.
I really like the foil effect they brought with Deluxe.I wish they would use it as the new standard for the 3 Diamonds instead of that laminated border.Or they could convert it to work like the Flair, then you can choose which effect you prefer.
>>58593264Fair opinion. It would make a better flair option.
>>58593264if they did that, they couldn't bring it back for deluxe set B.
>>58593251>no fisher
>suicuine greninja>entei blazYup that's a disconnect from me
>>58593291>disconnecting from a free win deck like blazikenlol?
>>58592969Updated Binder with my more tantalizing pulls. LF Sabrina, Brock, and Misty. Cyrus too but I ain't holding my breath. If there's something else you like and it's your favorite mon I'll see what you have to offer. I only got 1 trade stam left for now.
>>58593291I sat through a match from a Decidueye bench sniper who apparently hit Masterball top 10k twice. I won because Jolteon EX is broken and they bricked. Sometimes sticking it out can boost the ego (or just remind you Pocket will fuck anyone when it wants to).
Any tips on my brew? I’ve been trying to make Flareon work again as I made top 10k with it last season. I traded for a rainbow too so I don’t want it to just sit on display.>>58593145I’m a big fan of it actually. It’s different shades of white and grey and makes him look like a holy priest, especially since he’s holding the book up like that. It actually stands out the most for me amongst FA trainers. Although I may be biased. Pic related.
>>58593301Flareon would probably like Flame Patch but where would you cut it into? Slyveon? Idk if running Sylveon and Copy Cat together isn't overkill. Sylveon definitely gives people a chance to Copy Cat for free basically if they don't like their hand.
>>58593301have you tried flareon/GA jolteon? afaik that was the best version last season and leafeon ex doesn't really do a lot for flareon. it was basically just filler but we have babies to ramp now.
Absol really should have a higher retreat cost
>>58593301like >>58593311 said, flareon/GA jolteon was the best version, but who knows now.you can probably cut the leafeon package for two magby and whatever techs if you dont want to play jolteon
>>58593337True, there's no way a fat ass like hers should only have 1 retreat.
>>58593355why is pocket pandering to pokefuckers now
>>58593355That Absol is male
>>58593363Did you check yourself?
>>58593355I hate how other megas running 2 is a liability because you will get Sabrina'ed/Cyrus'ed but with Mega Absol as long as you attack with it you have a high chance of just evading those problems. Also it has really good partners in fucking Hydreigon and Darkrai etc.
>>58592988Please respond.
>>58593371Google it and look for sites that link to the Japanese.
>>58593363with an ass like that, who cares?
>>58593371i just use poketrade and pokehub, they're both pretty garbage though.
Two cyrus or 1cyrus+1 sabrina?
>>58593311>>58593341Yeah the variant I used last season was 2 flareon, 1 leafeon and 1 GA jolt with 2 pichu. I find the babies to be somewhat of a liability now. So far I like 2 leafs because it allows me to chip on the bulky megas before sending in flare. Whereas last season the goal was to 1HKO with flare at all costs, it simply doesn’t work this season.So far I’m 6:0 on the event but for a very small sample size, I’ve beaten two Absols and two blazikens but faced no frogs yet.>>58593309Yeah I’m thinking I could drop copycat for something. A patch does sound interesting because it allows me to keep Flareon at 100hp. Or I could stick in another May.
>>58593359>now
>>58593389If you need 2 May to get what you need that game was prob a brick anyway (or you have too many mons).
>>58593388If you got ways to chip the whole board double Cyrus. If not Cyrus Sabrina wombo combo.
>>58593390whore
>>58593264i don't like the gloss, i prefer the crisp dryness
>>58593264the borders on the regular 3Ds look awful. always hated them.

>>58593467list
Who was the fag that told me Suicuninja was dead with Megas? I'm in your sister's bedroom right now
>>58593467I actually saw Dark Tina doing the event tonight and sadly they got the perfect hand vs my Jolteon EX bricking. Sabrina'ed my Oricorio then Cyrused it right back into place. RIP. I just conceded and then they taunted me with a friend request.

>no sneed peek eventwhich one of you motherfuckers said it was going to be today
this is probably the single worst 2* in the entire setwatch it be the one i hit
>>58593544Why would you waste your energy on that... You could miss four 1 cost WPs of cards you don't have instead.
>>58593544thankfully i missed it

>>58593950The special missions that just started today
>>58593906Shouldn't have insulted chang when godpicking was still a thing
>>58593976That was the most fun time I had with this game
Finally, something worthwhile.
>>58593982Yeah, trading 2* is probably the closest thing right now, but it's still not quite the same
I know shinies aren't exactly on anyone's wishlist, but this card, alongside the shiny Oricorio (which I also managed to pull), is definitely on mine from this set
Finally got my first 2 star from a pack since this set's release (that wasn't rigged at the 495 --> 500 pack point mark)This time, it happened on the 590 --> 595 mark. Wonder if this means the shit """luck""" seed is forcing something rare now every time it gets to within 10 points of the next interval of hundreds
I believe this is the luckiest WP I've ever managed to get.
>>58594029interesting theory. i got my second gold pokeball at 1240 or so pack points. i just exchanged them for a red instead. granted, i wasn't even halfway to the pokeball but it was a very pleasant surprise and probably helped me keep on spending and staying in the game.
>>58594039There's something to it for sure. A lot of people report a 2* pull just before they actually reach 1250 points in a set, and they probably have an algorithm per set for this which is why they're reluctant to consolidate points
>>58594003I got the shiny I wanted today too
>>58594003Just pulled Oricorio myself after putting it on my wishlist today. Feels good. Shinies in general feel good to get now with the one simple change of making them an extra card, as they should have been. Now it doesn't feel like you got cheated out of another rare card. If you roll a shiny, you just get it in addition to whatever the hell else you were getting in the pack.
>>58594029lmfao. retard.
pulled an immersive altaria from my daily, feels good, very pretty card.>>58594033nice, congrats
>>58593990This card right now is as cancerous as mewtwo ex back then. And just like mewtwo, I predict dena will balance the hell out of this card in the next set or two
Does anyone have an extra FA Research they'd like to trade I can offer a FA Lillie from the Deluxe Pack for your Research

Anyone else's pack luck been fucking atrocious? I'm getting no 4Ds at all
>>58594570Yes.
New thread:>>58594680>>58594680
>>58593177At the absolute minimum, it should indicate which of your available picks are going to give a sneak peek before you spend the activation. There is no worse feeling than spending 50+ glass on a 4 energy pick and then not even getting the peek. Never mind the fact that during the event all of the picks you get shown are mysteriously all garbage.
