Gonna miss waking up and have a new set to open
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I don't care if these aren't English cards. Getting girls in exchange for Planeta Slop is a victory in my book.
>>58877146>golden ponchoCall the ICE RIGHT NOW
>>58877162At least you got loads of dust.
Are dragons finally winning?
>>58877166>called Mars in Japan>Mars in English>Mars even in spicland>somehow you have the need of swapping the fucking name of a planet for another oneSpaniards are so retarded.
>>58877166>>58877187Venus is for my penis
Anyone want to trade their mars or Cyrus 2 star for a 2 star professor research?
>>58877210No. I already have two Oak.
>>58877216Anything else you want for them? My alt is still 300 points from redeeming either of them, only got the 2 star I didn’t want from palkia so far
>>58877187The whole translation industry in Spain is handled by retarded boomers who think they know better. A lot of movie titles are translated to the same title over and over so everytime you google a movie you need to add the year it was made to find it.
>>58877223I only have two Cyrus, but I'd consider Mars for Irida
Wow Diantha might actually look okay in this art.
I WANT THE NEW SET AAAAAAAAAHHH
So let me get this straight. They only have one pack, but they put the content amount of two packs into it? ... Honestly, I'm fine with that. Means my alt only needs to put all its hourglasses into one pack to help me chase all EXs and 1Star
>>58877177Lolno, dragons are going to suck until they finally add dragon energy to the game.
>>58877225Ahh what a shame, I’m also missing Irida. Never did get the golden ball either.
Snorlax Ex+Ogerpon Ex sounds cute, shame there's zero good ramp for that sort of deck.
>>58877177Juggler was SO FUCKING CLOSE to saving them. Requiring three Energy, though? Fucking retarded. I'm still going to try it, just run two babies and then focus an Energy type.
>>58877237Damn. I hope you at least find what you're looking for, bro
Strangle all Fagnezone players, watch the life drain from their eyes!
each new Mega set we're closer to getting Hex Maniac
is this shit 2 packs, this set is massiveno way im collecting all those 1*s day one
>>58877253Watch them make her worthless Gourgeist and Trevenant support
>this effect stacksI don't get it. How do you stack it?
>>58877285the +30 stacks each turn
>>58877285Its miltank but starts at 60dmg
>>58877285I wish the number just went by 30 every turn instead of 30 every time it attacks.
>nothing of value except buffs to cards that already perform well and nerfs to greninja and oricorioSo the meta is gonna be Mgarde and Mabsol as a counter with suicune greninja being a bit behind again. Such a healthy meta
>>58877296>tfw most people barely play the game and Dena is fine with it
sightseer sexo
The undying Mega Gard and Dusknoir deck is gonna be a problem since Diantha exist. healing 90 damage isnt something to scoff at especially now that you can reliably heal Dusknoir for a reasonable amount
>>58877315Eevee decks got better again I suppose
Hey guys, can I play with you?
>>58877315She's gonna be stupid broken in Jolteon/Toxitricity decks or any deck that uses Eeveelutions.
>>58877315her bare foot should be visible behind herunplayable
>>58877327Fuck You!!!
Sucks that Gigalith has no say to ramp his attack. Being able to hit any benched pokemon for 140 sounds nice, but 4 energies is too much for a fighting type card.
>20Damage
>>58877316Not really. That requires you to assemble not one, but two Stage 2 lines and put them together fast. There's a reason those aren't popular.
>>58877383Meloetta
>>58877327remember that you need Cyrus which is an investment in order to get value on a bench sniper. the raincoat tool will do nothing and Greninja did nothing wrong.
reminder that grenigger is the problem
>>58877461>pings you for 20The fuck you gonna do about it bitchboy?
>>58877477*equips poncho*not today SHITkuga
Reminder that they put Hourglasses in this garbage just because they were that asshurt at the possibility of your chances being 1/4 instead of 1/5.
>Mega-Greninja EX next set>"If this Pokemon is on the field, you can either discard any of your opponent's Pokemon tools or do 30 damage to the Pokemon."
>>58877498Can't wait for the Froakie Ex with the same text as the Ex Eevee.
>>58877429What makes you think that'll be fast enough?
Patiently waiting for Urshifu to get a card
>>58877501Also can't wait for them to print the Pocket version of this fucking thing.
>>58877493Yeah thats right, you wear your poncho instead of a good item. You only have 2, can't save all 4 of your pokemon
what does RR means? like this guy is looking for a RR Jolteon, which one is it?
>>58877531Rainbow border
>>58877531rainbow rare
>>58877166That reminds me, last night my alt managed to get a Mother Beast Lusamine. I had a spare Planeta Gyarados on me so that takes care of that. All I have left is a spare 5ban Buzzwole and Ponytail Lillie>>58877531Rainbow Rare, has a rainbow border
>>58877494>still missing a couple reverse holos>see multiple wonder picks with the same card I don't yet have>try one, miss>oh well>fuck it, yolo, let's try the second one as well>>that feel when you have just converted 36 wonder pick hourglasses into 2 booster pack hourglasses
>>58877173>I-IM GONNA DOOOST
>>58877210I’ll trade mars.6531915732957252
>>58877502You also have the slab
Cyrus will be one year old soon
>>58877494More likely, it's because they are crappy devs and didn't want to add an exception. They've been consistently avoiding fixing stuff or delaying needed changes everytime so it's expected of them to be lazy about something that would only benefit the playerbase at the cost of work hours.
i am on FUCKING fire jesus what's with my luck.
>>58877315She has cake.
>>58877336>Jolteon/ToxitricityHmmm this could actually work if it wasn't for the fucking poncho.
>AI draws 10 cards and generates 5 energy on its first turn
>reduced hourglass rewards from solo battlesDENAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>58877714Dena are hooknoses, what else is new.
>random solo battlesWhat will these give?
Nobody is going to run raincoat just for greniggerMeanwhile Suicune gets +20 hp with the basic stadium, fora total of 160hp with cape, letting it dodge some kos even through Red
>>58877735*180
>>58877210no one wants oak anymore, it's joever
Any way of getting error cards?
>>58877749Error cards? In a DIGITAL card game? you niggas just be asking anything and expect to not be called retarded.
My pack recharged, not sure if using it for one last go at the anniversary pack or save it for the new set later today.
>>58877714Where did they saying this alert news? I can will not know until its over then uninstall
>removed sneak peeks>reducing hourglasses from solo battles>possibly going to restrict 2* trades in the future based on a datamined "trade ticket" itemI don't think I can take much more of this.
HOLY SHIT
>>58877819Holy shit Yanmega EX
>>58877816In Denas defence don’t forget all of the additional content they added since the games release such as different battle modes, 30 card decks, a varied and healthy meta and story mode for single player
>>58877816>possibly going to restrict 2* trades in the future based on a datamined "trade ticket" itemWATsource?
>>58877805The datamined rewards for the Solo Battles for the new expansion.Only a few of them give the Pack Hourglasses for clearing it the first time.
>>58877826There really is zero content isn’t there? it’s not gonna get better either is it?
>>58877831For as long as pokemon players stay as easily-exploited as they are the companies making products for them will continue investing minimum effort into them.
>>58877831This is bad news for the game as it means people are spending less and less and they’re taking the lazy option of squeezing the remaining hardcore players for money instead of just improving the game
>>58877831why do cattle like us continue to give money to dena ?
>>58877838You guys spend money on this game? pfffttttt
>>58877838I think for a large part of the remaining player base it’s sunk cost fallacy
I'm actually curious about what's the % of active players that spend money in the game.Either just premium or actively buying gold.
>making a million bajillion dollars importing 200 JPGs into the game every month>still need to squeeze players moreJesus Christ man. It's not like people arent dumping fuckloads of money into this piece of shit game as is, why are they suddenly trying to Jew even harder?
fake news
>>58877794hello?
>>58877285Steel Cow
>>58877865Somehow MegaMaw feels way worse.
>>58877690His time has come again.
>>58877636In a perfect world, they would earn no revenue and be panicking ...but this is not a perfect world
reminder that if you want rainbow rares and full art trainers, pay your friendly chinks on ebay 5 dollars instead of giving dena 200 dollars for a spark.
>>58877867Not really because she has the new tool, Adamant, Perrserker and Steel Appron support, not just Whitney.
>>58877166Rainbow Pinsir < Planeta Pinsirthe former got a weird, pointy abdomen
>>58877873>AdamantI thought the card game didn't have natures
>>58877636>work hoursKek what work hours? They arent actively developing this shit. We've gotten two new sets in the past three months. They can't be asked to keep Ranked mode running for months at a time. They're taking over a literal year to fix very small shit like cards registering properly in tbe card dex. They work on this game like maybe a week out of the month maximum and then just come to the office and jack off the rest of the time (while making fat fucking stacks of cash for this below bare minimum effort btw)
>>58877858>It's not like people arent dumping fuckloads of money into thisI’ve noticed the most of the whales I come across are mainly japs. I don’t know what it is that makes them like this, but I assumed they were the ones doing the heavy lifting in keeping the game alive. Maybe it’s not enough.
>>58877829>Only a few of themAdvanced and expert?
>>58877903>Maybe it’s not enoughIt's never enough for Overlord Masuda
>>58877903It's a very Japanese thing to pick singular hobbies and dump literally all of your time and energy into it. See the phenomenon of "maniacs" about whatever particular subject. Gacha is basically tailor made to exploit this tendency to its limits.
>>58877918Basically yeah, they min max their hobbies so badly.
toxtricity status?
>>58877870nice try zhang but neither you nor dena are getting my money. take your 500 farmer accounts and go shill it somewhere else
>>58877937TCGP even gets away with cheaping out further than most gachas because1. The vast majority of the art assets for the game arent even original, theyre just imported from the physical TCG2. Unlike the typical waifu collecting gachas, they don't have to budget out for constant new animations and voice lines for new charactersThis game honestly might have the highest ROI of any game in the industry, they ain't spending SHIT on it.
>>58877950overdosing on hopium
>>58877950Pair it with Jolteon EX and pray.
>try new casual mode>suicune greninja match 1>absol hydreigon match 2What’s wrong with you people?
>>58877972I HAVE TO WIN EVEN WITH NOTHING AT STAKE, I JUST FUCKING HAVE TO
>Swampert weakness LightningAt least give it Grass like how the actual TCG has been doing it
>>58877980Anon, they've been skipping type logic since the first expansion in pocket
>>58877980Didn't even notice that with how irrelevant weaknesses have been in this game 99% of the time.
>>58877972greninja is barely meta anymore
>>58877972Those are my favorite pokemans.
Should I hail mary 120 HG on a last 10-pack of DX or just save it all for the new one?
>>58877735This. Raincoat is going to be ass and that stadium card just makes suicune even better.
>>58877990yeah oak's in those 10 packs this time
are there any tips or tricks to get the ex pack Pikachu icon? I'm surprised people managed to get it.If I trade away the only copy of a card I have, does it still fill out the collection?
>>58877990Hoard for the new one, opening DX is for people with too much money.
If Fighting ever gets any kind of consistent energy ramp it will break tbe gsme wide open
>>58877998And that's exactly why it's never happening.
>>58877995>If I trade away the only copy of a card I have, does it still fill out the collection?Yeah the card is still registered
>>58877903Relatively low cost of living plus no free time plus no space whatsoever living in cramped apartments means that whatever surplus money they have goes into gacha, which requires no space and requires little time (usually).
If they ever added Dynamax/Gigantimax to the game how would they even make it any different from current Megas that auto lose the game when they die? You cant really have much more of a drawback than that.
itd be kinda retarded for them to retcon their lack of foresight on the expanded trading they've already let loose, butwho knows
>>58878003I see, so just find trade buddies and work away at it over time. Nice
>>58877958Also, whatever art is new is traced and/or AI generated.
>>58878010What do you even need for the Pikachu emblem?
>>58878015I think it's getting all Pikachu cards from the set.
>>58878019>>58878015I meant the profile icon. I got the emblem by mistake
>>58877998Eh, let's say Bonsly as a Fighting equivalent to Mantyke/Pichu/etcWhich Fighting mons proceed to break the game? Donphan hits 110 more easily but that's not very big nowadays, and most other ex Fighting like Garchomp/Lopunny don't really need a ramper or just aren't great like Lucario/Machamp. We have plenty of 3-diamond Fighting mon with fat energy requirements like Tyranitar, Golem, Rhyperior and Mamoswine but even Lighting decks struggle to justify 3-4 energy. Lucario buffs all of these which is nice, but it's unreliable and even Rampardos decks eventually replaced it early on
>>58878005Tbh life over there must really suck if gacha games are what they like to invest their time and money into the most.
>>58878040It's that, gunpla, merch, or figuresIt's not like the US where people (eventually) have money to buy a second home or a boat or home renovations or just go on vacationIt's only enough for gachas and shitty kitschy shit like anime/game merch (which is fucking everywhere here)
Is Giratina making a comeback with new Gard?
bit early to be declaring that innit
>>58878065more like queeratina
>>58878080All the faggot tcg pocket tubers post click bait titles
How good does Meloetta sound?
>>58878080psychic waifu fags be like
>>58878099You're relying on opening with her for her to be good.
>>58878099It depends if it lets you search for a psychic card turn one. We don’t know what “beginning of your turn” means in pocket yet.
>>58878099https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMd8aZm8wtcsounds awfulthis is my first time hearing it
>>58877253It'll be the new Hex design, not that I'm complaining
I'm still trying to figure out why they've randomly decided to drop the pack in the middle of the evening instead of at reset time.
should I spend my deluxe pack pack points right now?
>>58877998What if:Bonsly30 HPNo weakness nor retreat cost0 energy: Rock Throw - Attach a Fighting energy from your Energy Zone to one of your benched Basic Pokémon. That Pokémon takes 10 damage.
>>58878006If your Gigantamax Pokémon dies, you lose the game and guarantee RNG fucks you over next game.
>>58878167you can still use your points even when the pack is gone
>>58878126Lmao
okay here goes my last deluxe pack aaaaaand it's shit
>>58877911Only the first battle in each difficulty.
>>58878220This games cooked
>>58878228It's 48 hourglasses, how much did we get before?
>>588782352, 3, 5, and 7 for each first clear of each battle, based on difficulty.
>>58878239Going by that if they did it the old way we'd get 126 hourglasses from the solo mode. I am sure the green shit you need for trading and 500 dust are adequate replacements.
>>58878248
What the fuck is this "trade ticket" that people are talking about? Are they letting us trade Crowns or Immersives after all?
>>58878258No info on that, just a datamined item name.
>>58877187
Is red and gio going to work for both M-Kangas attacks?
>>58877571Fuuuuuck please tell me you’re still interested, I hope no one else sniped it
>>58878279Yes, since it's two attacks happening one after the other.
WHY THE FUCK IS IT NOT OUT YET? THESE FUCKING RETARDED PIECES OF SHIT ARE PUSHING THE UPDATE WHEN, WHEN THEY FUCKING BRUSH THEIR TEETH WITH SHIT IN INDIA? LIKE WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? I WAS PROMISED A PATCH TODAY. I WAKE UP AND IT'S THE SAME FUCKING ARDS. AND THAT SAYS A LOT CAUSE I WOKE UP AT FUCKING 3:30 PM IN THE FUCKINGT DDAY AND THE CARDS ARN'T OUYT I'M GOING TO FGUC,INHG KLILL DENA SDPOM VINDU9IHFN I FU KING WANMT TO KILL MSMASH THEIR FUCKIONG GFASCES IN WITH THE SPOON OF TM Y DUCK I HATE THEM SO MFUC,IGNIU THEY ARE PIECES OF SHOIT THAT WILL. DIKE IN A FUJCKIENG FGLAME
WHEN THE FUCK THIS SET DROP? TOMORROW?
>>58878306>wakes up at 3:30 pm>is an unintelligible retard frothing that he can’t spend money right nowO-ok anon, it’s only another 4.5 hours from now.
>>58878308>>58878306Would be useful to watch the trailer with the eyes open next time. The time is there.
>>58878268>E-negrolol. did they really/? anon who just made the melty post. this calmed me. thanks, tacofriend.
>>58878315Wait… is e-nigmo supposed to sound like enigma? And iono just means “I ‘unno’”???? God that’s stupid
>>58878319Yes.
>>58878314Write it for me
I hate how you can't get rid of all the extra copies of a card you have in exchange for effects! Who thought that was a good idea?Sure the game slows to a crater after a certain amount but who needs 10 copies of a common card?
>>58878319You didn't get that with how much she said I don't know or Iunno in SV? A lot of her dialogue was setup for that punchline.
>>58878352I thought she was ionic because she’s an electric type leader…
>>58878080Think you guys are underrated this set. Kanga, Gard & the grass EX seem good. The stadium that gives +20 is good.
Is there a chance buzzwole comes back into the meta? That new stadium card that gives all basics +20 hp seems unreal
>>58878258HAHAHAHAHA Good one. This is DeNa we're talking about. They're probably about to cap our ability to trade for 2*s without their new, limited currency
>>58878168Why he's not in the game they need hire you
>>58878362It's a double pun. E-nigma also has the "E-" prefix for electric.
>>58878362The double pun is there in a few different languages. Nanjamo in Japanese keeps the plant theme those guys have intact with referring to a type of large tree while being for short the phrase meaning What's that?
>>58878368I'm pretty sure he is still decent enough, mostly because he does well against Hydreigon.
>>58878220So, only the Grass decks?(unless they changed the order, or have them all unlocked)
>>58878268La copiona señoras y señores.
Can I sell my FA Oak or are they worthless now from botters
>>58878405Yes.PokemonZone says they still starting with Grass.Quilladin, Roserade, Ogerpon ex and Ogerpon ex.
>>58878420You need $5 that bad?
>>58878425I sold them for 40 a piece back then
>>58878425So worthless
>>58878420Some based anon here just traded me a mars for it, so I’d say hold onto them. Not everyone spends money on the game.
New pack comes out at the next reset, right?
>>588784413 and a half hours.
They're combining Goku and Gohan into the same EZA stage.
I got ZERO 2 Stars on this DX return.This is not cool!!
KEK
3 and a half hours until I marry my virgin wife Mega Gardevior. I'm a little nervous
>>58878462Really? I got that ugly-ass Mewtwo, a Ho-oh, a couple of shiny Darkrais & Giratinas, and that immersive PIkachu on my birthday, all just doing regular rolls.
>>58878471>3 and half hours.It's not dropping until the normal reset of the day, which is still like 7 hours away.
>virgin>he doesn't know
Now that stadiums are here they are surely setting the stage for the next sets to be Groudon and Kyogre, and the next mini to be RayquazaSurely...
>>58878462Same, but I also opened zero DX packs.
>>58878524>paldeatards stop their spamming of "logically, next set will be Paldea" once the pattern is proven to be true>now that the pattern is old and busted we have hoenntards doing the sameWe really need a new pattern, and fast.
this set looks really underwhelmingA9 seems the most interesting but the rest are meh
>>58878524We still need Mega Sceptile.So, there's still a chance for more Hoenn...
>>58878524The real Hoenn set, Mega Gardevoir and Mawile don’t count
>>58878550I thought I was the only one.The only card I really want is the Alolan Ninetales fullart but not enough to make me pull on the set
>>58878538we really need GALAR
>>58878466That's actually a cool feature
>>58878471Buddy your wife has been ran through by the whole pokemon fandom, except for me because I don't want to fuck the pokemon only the pokegirls
>>58878471>>58878489Biggest retards ITT
>>58878569Good morning sirs.
>>58878569Iridia is a chestlet thoughever
>>58878580Irida can has big boob or can has smalls ones too :)
What a shit month. I missed almost every wp with 2* card. Didn't get any gold card. Overall my deluxe ex is 349/353.2* cards: charizard ex (x2), ho-oh ex, pikachu ex, dialga ex, solgaleo ex, eevee ex (x2), lugia ex, Lusamine (x3),Immersive pikachu ex (x2)Shiny darkrai ex, Shiny giratina ex (x5)Deluxe Ex pack points: 1265Zero oaks, zero lillies, zero gold rare candy
>>58878594Good morning sirs.
>only pulled 10 deluxe ex for shinedust farming>kept going with shining reverly and almost hit 2.5kfeels good not to fall into DeNa's trap
So what are you actually meant to use the new Gardevoirs with?Three energy a turn on a stage 2 is a huge amount of energy but it feels like Psychic has very little that can escalate heavily off of that. Obviously high cost Psychic cards like Mewtwo EX, and there's obviously Reuniclus, but am I missing something else that burns a LOT of Psychic energy? I guess healing for Cresselia EX?
Can you guys please drop me a (You) when the set is released to I can get a reminder?
>>58878674You use it to keep Garde healthy with Diantha and Lilies. There's also balloon memes.
Post hoard.
>>58878674Indeedee and Giratina
>>58878674You can just play solo Gardie. Maybe confusion hax can help you early on.
>>58878688
>this time psychic ramp will be good!lol, last time it was relevant was GA
>>58878688>>58878701what? Why??
>another metagame RULED by Mega KangaI can't wait!
>>58878712>tfw Giovanni and Red apply to it twiceThere's also the red bird from the same set giving it a 40 point damage boost.
>>58878708I don't spend much. Maybe 200-300 on each set. Plus wasn't Mega Rising like a 2 month set essentially? I spent barely nothing on Delux pack. As a F2P I have to be careful on which sets to spend so Crimson Blaze I barely spent any, maybe 200 hr glasses and was able to get 2+ every EX. I also don't spend hr glasses until like a week into the expansion when the meta kind of gets ironed out.>>58878712>>58878723Yeah I think he'll be good. A-B tier meta deck. Ramp with magby/mantyke/pichu plus Ilima
>>58878723>Red+Gio combos>new stadium gives it more HP>Ilima solves its Retreat cost issue early game>Is replacing Arceus in Daycare decks>Billion of ways to get it readyBesides being bent over by Rocky Helmet, which can be offset by Guzma/Klekfi, this thing is probably the most interesting Mega introduced so far and its not even close.
>>58878040They live very hyperconsumerist over there. The trains are littered from wall to wall, and even hanging on the ceilings, with ads. Every store will run a 30 second jingle to make sure you remember the store's name and that the store is near and can recognize the store commercials on TV from the music alone. Everything is gambling, like everything. Gambling is technically illegal, but it's probably because culturally they're so susceptible to it that it'll inevitably lead to civilization collapse if they formally allowed real gambling. So instead they have fucking little lotteries for everything including reservations for a fucking cafe.
>>58878746>most interestingYou mean broken
>>58878126lmfao yea it does sound like shit. I've never heard it before either, but this is the bet they can do? Even the fucking Onix in the video were pissed at it and told it to stfu.
>>58878751Its definitely both. I don't want to sound like a faggot and claim its "broke" for the sake of it. By all means, its definitely super good on paper. Hopefully I can get at least one RR Kanga.
>>58878712>one shots it and wins the gamenothing personnel
>>58878466I fucking HATE how long animations in this game fucking take when the timer is running down. Any smart developer would have the timer paused during animations but nope.
>>58878712Just a giant punching bag for my mega lopunny + speed bag for free
They should've put tommy in as a trainer for Kang
>>58878774Have you seen Hearthstone?
I think Chandelure is being slept on big time. You're going to playing trainers pretty much every turn, especially ones that get you cards, so bare minimum, by the time you get it online, you'll be swinging for 100 damage, then an additional 20 after every turn. Something like Chandelure + Mimikyu ex with 10+ supporters or 2 Sylvally + 1 Chandelure + 11-13 supporters could work.
>>58877714Fuck, will they change the past solo mission's rewards too? Just in case, right now Im doing all the solo missions I haven't been doing since shining revelry, can I make it or Im screwed?
>>58878806literally everyone is talking about chandelure
>>58878779Until you flip double tails every game
>>58878813No, not touching the older ones.
>>58878561Soon
Is it out yet?
>>588788481h30min.
>used all my hourglassesno ragrets
>>58878854Godfuckingdammit thats so fucking late
>>58878859same i'm at zero
>>58878859Did you at least get an oak?
>>58878866got one really early and nothing after that, if I didn't I'd feel pretty shitty
>cryogonal is chingling but not a babyHmmm
Why the fuck are they releasing then set before the reset? I can't open packs until reset, I would fuck up the recharge times of my free packs.
>>58878887So people can push to have the set completed before reset to get the 24 hour wp
>>58878889Goddammit, I don't want my recharge times to get ruined.
>>58878825Are we sure about that? I thought they did this to fuck with the account sellers.
Should I got for the 24 hr wp? It's the blastoise not even RR or save my stam to go for EX picks from the new expansion? I don't care much about cosmetics.
>>58878899There's no current indication they're changing the past ones.
>>58878902Just follow your heart.An outside source can't give you the right answer for that.
>>58878765playing fighting is going to make you start feeling personal
>>58878789>smart developer
>>58878765This seems pretty good right?
>>58878926How do you ramp though
>Update still not out yetDead game. Literally just uninstalled. I had $5k waiting in my Google Play account to spend on this, and they fucking ruined it. I hope someone from DeNA is reading this thread and realizes what a catastrophic fuckup they've done with this update. I'm never playing this game again. I shouldn't have to check the app several times a day and see there's no update yet, on the date of the update. It should be ready for me as soon as I wake up at 3:30PM on a Wednesday afternoon. How the fuck else am I supposed to spend the wealth I accumulated from shitcoins? Like what the fuck? Don't they recognize there are terminally unemployed people like me with too much money to fucking care about who want to spend money on their shitty jpgs? Why the fuck would they release it in the fucking night when all the waggies (who don't have disposable income) are fucking home? Anyway, whatever. Just installed Uma Musume. Done with this fucking shit. Absolutely done.
>>58878927>PassimianEX>Swanna>DawnOh nonono...
>>58878928Honestly yeah, this is exactly the kind of clown show that makes people bounce. It’s not even about impatience, it’s about basic expectations. If you announce a release date, that date should actually mean something. Not “maybe sometime while you’re asleep, maybe tomorrow, maybe when Mercury exits retrograde.” People rearrange their day around this stuff, especially when the whole model of the game is built around engagement spikes and spending windows.And the funniest part is how predictable this always is. Massive buildup, big date plastered everywhere, then silence. No update, no clear communication, just vibes. So everyone’s left refreshing the app store like an idiot wondering if they’re the problem. At that point it stops feeling like hype and starts feeling disrespectful.Also yeah, the timing makes zero sense. Dropping it late at night just kneecaps the exact people who are most likely to actually spend money immediately. You don’t hype an update for weeks and then release it when half your playerbase is either asleep or burnt out from work. That’s not strategy, that’s just sloppy.And sure, the ranting is exaggerated, but the underlying frustration is real. Live service games live and die on trust. Once players start feeling like dates are fake and communication is optional, it’s over. People don’t quit because one update is late, they quit because it confirms a pattern of “they don’t have their shit together.”So yeah, uninstalling and moving on isn’t dramatic, it’s rational. There are a million other games competing for attention, and plenty of them manage to ship updates without turning it into a guessing game. If DeNA wants people to stick around and spend, they might want to start treating announced dates like commitments instead of suggestions. Just upvoted your comment btw.
>>58878902Do you have 4 free stamina, then yes. Are they all empty, no
He cute should've gotten a 1* card
>>58878943I think its neat vivillion puts to sleep and poisons
>>58878928european chads will wake up tomorrow and start ripping packsusasissies cry
>>58878859Same, all on the dx rerun, got just enough points to get an oak, got a few 2*s and gold rc while doing this. Will now stockpile my glasses for the inevitable next (((limited time dx pack)))
So is Ogerpon Slaking going to be a combo?
>>58878928>Just installed Uma Musumegood riddance
I'm happy to replace my pikachus with the new babykiller pikachu but I'm sad that I'm saying goodbye to full art pikachus for a while :(
>>58878927just use hitmonchan ex to bully early while you build it on the bench
>>58878928>>58878940its not even out for another hour what are you complaining about
>Yeah let's give suicune ninja type exclusive chinglingFUCKING RETARDS
>>58878966Pretty sure it's a copypasta, a bad one at that
AROKUDDA WATCH OUT
>>58878978Yea this boggled my mind too. Would have been better if it was a Sudowoodo card for fighting types or something. Maybe steel Durant.
>>58878927You don't. You run 1 hitmonchan ex as your only basic
Someone knows if this new schedule for set releases is permanent?
>>58878927Monke. It's actually not bad when it works but it's easily messed with, all they have to do is sabrina or KO any other pokemon first, then it becomes useless.
The fact that the update isn't out yet is concerning. Did someone at DeNA die?
>>58878281NTA, but if you're around I have a Mars and would trade for Professor. 2187 3105 1768 8227 goomy icon.
Would a 30 HP baby with a single attack that deals 10 damage with no effects, and the ability "This Pokemon does not grant a point when defeated." be useful
>>58878993No.
Ho-Oh is going to be a sleeper OP in this set with Juggler and some high energy Colorless (無) Pokemon. Lima your Mega Kanga up when it's about to die, put it
The new cards are set to come out at 8:00 PM in my zone and that is still 37 minutes away.
>to retarded to understand timezonesHow much hours until next pack releases?
>>58879024>>58879021
>>58879024There's an in game timer to when the time limited pack ends. When that ends, the new pack will be thereGo play Paizuri Slave Training Program while you wait or something
>>58879016I'll just keep blastin for 180 with lugia
>>58879007If you use Android, you can already update your game through the store...
>>58879007It´s coming in 30 mins, I don't know why people here act all negative when we knew beforehand the exact time the update would be available
>>58879010Yes, especially as Sabrina fodder. I even throw babies in front as meatshields despite losing a point from them so long as it protects my King. You're essentially printing a card that says "your opponent wastes their damage for this turn." When you put it into that perspective, you can see it's a pretty good card. If someone has rocky helm on you could even just not attack that turn just because it's often more impactful to force your opponent into wasting their move than to deal 10 damage. Even if it dealt 0 damage it'd be pretty good lol.
Why we need more purrloins and Leipards?
>MFW I can't open packs until the reset hour.I managed to set my free packs to recharge at specific times, I can't ruin that.
>>58878988Chingling can attack going first turn 1 but still
>>58879052deal with it nerd
Waaaah WaaaaahBaby no wike gwewinjaw waaaah how do baby need mommy huggies waaaah no wont let daddy put no no lump up baby botton waaaaaaaahhhhImagine pumping a hot thick load inside that human cum slutAngel soft fleshlight that goes WAAAAAH for BBC
So wtf the new pack drops at 7 my time instead of midnight? Fuck sake I opened 1 of my free packs because I thought by the time I wake up tomorrow both free packs would be reset. I essentially lost a free pack for this set because of that. Fucking jews.
They added a Themed Collection for that Natu and Bouffalant with combining arts...
Swear we got this same card a set or two ago
>>58877146>/ptcgp/That's not the real name.
>>58879066Excellent post
You can just keep using this to heal in the same turn as long as you're flipping heads?
>>58879124Yes.
>>58879124Yep.You can even combine it with one Will.
>>58879124No.
>>58879127>>58879128Can see the card winning some unwinnable games. Guess that's why you always play to your outs.
New packs when?
>>5887913465 minutes
>>58879031Good man. I've been using Ho-Oh decks frequently since release. Last meta it was surprisingly good and people would always be caught off guard and not know what the hell to do. Got to Masters pretty easily with this. Scooping an almost dead Fug or Lugia who tanked as you set Ho-Oh up is always a good feeling. Lugia is single canon, Fug is shotgun. The wins that are most fun are when I place energies on Fug, they put a Mega in front, and then I Energy Switch what Lugia needs off my Fug. Gambler will take that place. Though I'll have to figure out what changes to make to my deck to fit him. There were so many times where my opponent was checkmated and would take a minute thinking their turn out before ultimately forfeiting. It's a good deck, people sleep on it already. Ho-oh gets a pretty cool stealth buff in a card that almost everyone is writing off because the conditions are hard to meet for any deck outside of Ho-Oh and maybe M.Steelix who I sometimes see running multiple energies from his baby ramps + Brock. But M.Steelix doesn't need an energy juggle so...
>>58879016in the time it takes to get 3 energy on ho-oh you could just have attached to mega kanga and started swinging instead though, while powering another mega kanga?
How to get to the tutorial for the free pack hourglasses for learning about stadiums?
>>58879138I'm playing a charmeleon variant. I only built the deck because I kept getting the birds in the DX pack, and was surprised at how decent it was.
IT'S LIVE
What is everyone’s first pack?
>>58879138>Gambler Fuck, Juggler. Got my trainer classes mixed up. Though Gambler is probably a card we'll get in the future.>Shuffle your hand into your deck>Flip a coin until you get tails - draw a card for each heads you get>>58879144Ho-Oh can attack more than once in many situations, leading to an abundance of energies that are easy to Juggle around. You can get Ho-oh online faster than most people expect, and once it's online you pretty much never worry about energies for the rest of the match. Plus if you're dealing with manual energies then you most likely will not have 3 types to work with when you need it for juggling back onto M.Kanga when you saved it from death.But your idea isn't bad really, just I'm very used to juggling energies with Ho-Oh and it's a fun deck when played right. M.Kanga feels like it plays into my deck.
Thanks I guess

I see.
>>58879164Yeah wtf was this about lol.It's in its own separate "b series" category too, shit is so funny
Wait what the fuck, why did they drop the pack in the middle of the day?
Before the value rise; which trainer from the new pack is the best? I'm thinking Sighsteer, but I'm a retard.
Decent pulls, got rainbow Opergon and planeta Toxtricity on my alt account
>>58879204NOBODY KNOWSHOLY SHIT STOP ASKING THATTHE TIME WAS IN THE TRAILER
>>58879193Third pack.I'll probably never use it in ranked, but, I don't care....Falinks baby! We are SO back!
Anyone want to trade their rainbow M kanga for my rainbow M Swampert?
>>58879071>>58879164>>58879197Judging by the update notes, there will likely be more Themed Collections in the future that require cards from separate packs.
>>58879158First pack magicAlso I got a mega garde from wonder pick, pretty good night
What's the deal with hourglass rewards for solo battles now?
>>58879187????? Says 12 for first time rewards. Wasn't it only like 2 for the beginner before?
>155 cardsSo basically, it's just a double pack but merged in one. I prefer it that way
>>58879207Sightseer is the hottest but probably most play is diantha which I'm still not sure if a boy or girl
>>58879231Yes, 2 per battle, not 2 on the first one and fuck you on the rest.
I miss Dx...
>>58879233I thought that at first too, but unless you're a paypig, I think it's worse. Once you're deep into the pack, it's gonna be a bitch to pull a lot of the 3-4 diamond cards and star cards that you're missing. I know you can trade and share but still
>>58879244Oh that's how it is now? Lame
>>58879233>>58879246 is correct.The more you open, you're more likely to hit duplicates.2 pack sets mitigate that ~somewhat~ by allowing you to just go pull from the one you're missing the most from.You don't have that in this.
>30 pack of nothingYippee
>>58879233I don't, pulling anything from this pack is fucking cancerous.The 2 emblems makes it pretty obvious this was going to be a dual pack that was merged at the last second.
>>58879244>>58879247You get 12 hourglasses per battle. Now you also get 12 on each random battle, and 12 for 20 points on advanced random battle and 12 on 50 points for expert random battle. That's a total of 120 hourglasses. In comparison: Crimson Blaze gave 81 hourglasses and Mega Rising gave 127.

>>58879259You can't count Random Battles, they don't reset every set, they're just new now.Considering only the new set Solo Battles, it's 48 Hourglass per set.
>>58879244>212, the beginning level first battle gives 12 hourglasses, the next battle gives jack shit so no reason to continue the beginning level.
>>58879272I was talking about how it was before.
>>58879259>50 points for 12 hourglasses>Play the expert random battle a minimum of seventeen (17) times to earn one (1) pack
>>58879158Roserade
>hub isn't updated yetDammnit man, I need to cash in on fomo. I got a Planeta Toxtrixity begging to turn into a C-tier Trainer. Maybe Erika or Leaf
>>58879275Don't forget that it's """random""" and the AI will always get decks that perfectly counters you and get the perfect hands at the very start each time.
>they actually nerfed hourglasses after over a yearFucking why? Revenue way down or what?
>>58879269NTA, but the Solo Randoms screen shows a date that appears to be the duration of the current battles.So it's possible that the rewards will be reset when the time comes...
>>58879285That only changes the decks that can be rolled by the AI.the First Clear and Mission rewards are a one time thing.
>>58879283How were they nerfed?
>>58877146ItWasFuckingFATEDThis set was DESIGNED for me
>>58879292Fewer hourglasses available from solo battles now
>>58879292Just read the past 20 or 30 messages.
>>58879275>It says "earn points", not win battles>make 16T galarian cursola deck>auto-play>AFK as the AI has a 50% chance to kill itself and give free points
I will NOT open packs today!
>>58879158Didn’t screenshot but I did get immersive gardevoir on the first pack!She’s everyone’s wife now.
>>58879158
Actually I'd rather just bash the first solo battle of each difficulty once than spend an hour on battleslop
>oakfarmers cashing out for new hotnesslol
Why the hell did they change the first time battle rewards?
>>58879316true, just gonna wait for the 24hr wonderpicks to land all that new shit in my hands
>>58879317They want more money
>>58879317because new accounts already have 2k+ they can farm and sit on
>>58879323>altfags predictably ruining things for everyone

>>58879330>Getting mad at people for rolling alts instead of getting mad at DeNA for choosing to go full retard and shooting themselves in the foot to solve a non-issuelmoa
>>58879293Lol wow
Whats the most braindead deck I can use to auto expert bullshit
>>58879353Just take two galarian corsola and galarian cursola, two rescue scarf and a bunch of shit to go along with it to draw as much as you can and let the game play itself. If you can't win, might as well take out the fuckers with you.
>>58879388altsharts and tcg resellers are one and the same degenerates
>2 cinematic mega gardiMuh wife. I guess ai'll have to make a gardi deck now.
14 packs in and I got my first pack of all dupes. How tf is that possible. Odds on that have to be less than 0.5%
Are we getting less hourglasses now from the step up battles?
>>58879422Yes, for the rest you now have to farm KOs in the new single player mode
>a new battle has unlocked. give it a try!
>all the legitimate players get punished for alt fuckery
Fire this Paper Pikachu artist.
Did they really nerf solo battle rewards?
>auto battling for random>2 points, only need a third one>uses Sabrina, brings in mega blaziken>blaziken wakes up, proceeds to flame patch into my deathWhy? It literally had the win. What happened.
>>58879431Just make an alt, bro. They're essentially soft confirming it's the way to play. They're just going to continue updating with the expectation that you either have at least one alt account or are spending $$$$. So unless you spend $$$ then you may as well load up MuMuPlayer or Parallel and just open your alt daily at least to open your 2 free packs. Go on with the expectation that you have 4 free packs a way, with the caveat that you occasionally need to grind stardust to transfer the big winner cards.
>0 two-stars in 42 packsis this shit luck?
How did legit players get fucked? What does an alt get you? t. King Casual
>>588794742 extra packs a day, plus an account that you can trash at any moment to reroll for the early rewards again.
>>58879431Can I get a QRD?
>>58879476Not him but you have to wait two weeks to be able to trade or share on a new account.Unless you're making several this is tedious work
>>58879460I got 1 in 45.
Got the only card I wanted in 2 tenners
>>58879436This looks like AI
>>58879458lol the only reason you say that is because it's now possible to trade 2 stars. Before it was impossible. This is supposed to be a big improvement for the playerbase who had to previously either pull or trade pack points for them. You abusing the system isn't confirmation for anything. It's just you being the equivalent of a botter/farmer in an online game. Most people aren't autistic retards who feel the need to minmax every single thing in their lives (even shit you don't even truly own or has physical substance).
>see the border for a 2* trainer>it's juggler
what the FUCK??
You still can't trade 3*s or crowns so...
>>58879503>play Will>guaranteed Instakill on literally anything
>only got 4D Mega Garde 15 packsguess this is going to be a slow drip then
>>58879496The backgrounds for at least 3/4ths of the cards are very clearly AI.
>>58879290see you on Feb 25th when it turns out that the rewards reset.
>>58879485Don't underestimate the patheticness of pokefags who have no life
>>58879517As it is now, they're coded as permanent flags.They obviously could change that for the next update, but there would be no reason to have it set this way and then change.
>>58879436>>58879514You are both fucking retarded. This card's art is like five years old. If you somehow didn't learn by now almost all the art in this game is lifted from the physical TCG
>>58879528Retards do this DEY UZED AI shit every single set release
>>58879498That's a lot of cope for someone who can't just make an alt account and spend 2 minutes a day opening packs on it. There's not a PokePocket police dude. She's not going to fuck you.
>>58879564>>58879564>>58879564
man, 20 packs already and just no luck, I should quit pulling
>>58879566>/ptcgp/ Wrong name.
>>58879508It doesn't score you a point, so it's limited in its usefulness. Still pretty good, but just something to take into consideration. Removing a Mega Blaziken from play is a pretty big setback but not that big of a deal if they have a second one ready to into play the next turn and the flame patches at hand to do so (likely considering how long it'll take you to amass 4 energies on a Dark deck).
This thing is impossible to kill
>>58878462I got a second full art Crack Cocain Lusamine, just in time for Ultra Beasts to make a comeback!
People on poketrade are fucking useless.Of the three trades I've set up since the pack released, one never responded after giving me their friend code, one asked me to wait for them to have enough dust for the trade, and another has had me waiting for over 2 hours because they're "doing smth".
dena>puts 24h 2* picks if you own all full art>decides to release single booster exp with 24 fullartsi swear i'm gonna drop this shit so soon.
