Jolteon ex should do 60 dmg at most since boost eevee exists. The fact it that is has such an op ability and 2 energy ramp is insane. 1st turn play is win con in 90% of situations
>see wonder pick>notice bidoof from best gen in the middle>"are you trying to tell me something">pick middle>
>>58925334Jolteon decks are balanced because they only work if the opponent bricks.Set up any kind of actual power infront of a jolteon and it folds due to lack of damage output. 80 damage is only good turn 3 or 4, by 5 or 6 it's just not enough.
>>58925325This game sucks
>>58925325
>>58925334All the blatantly broken decks in this game and you complain about Jolteon.
Digimon Alysion save me
>>58925363I'd gladly take this than that stupid ass rain coat.
this nigga not viable?
>>58925520>50 damage>140 lifethe fuck do you think?
>>58925520>fossile>probably healing 90 when there's three meta decks able to shit out 110+ damage turn 3duuh yeah totally viable
Wow. If they added this old paper TCG card as an alternative to Oricorio to counter Hydreigon, Greninja would still destroy this, even with the poncho...
>>58925555Shedinja has always been mostly a meme in the TCG.This one would be fun though.
>>58925583This one looks pretty interesting, but Hydreigon still gets the prize...Even Deino gets bonus damage against it...However, tripling the damage taken for 1 energy is quite nice.
>>58925612It would have to be a dead card on the deck if you see a dark energy on the set-up phase.Never even putting the Nincada down.
>>58925555Actually, maybe Jumpluff EX could use this. Slap a leaf cape on it and just flip heads with ice pops for the win.
>>58925634Might not be completely dead.If you can Sabrina/Repel to tag Mega Absol for at least 60 early, this plus Cyrus is game.Then again, if you tag Mega Absol early with many decks, Cyrus is already GG.
>>58925368kek, next beta when
Strangle the AltariTard players, watch the life drain from their eyes!
>>58925766Altaria requires skill and careful planning though.
Pocketmads weekly results. Altaria and Hydreigon run this game
>>58925839Altaria Unown?To OHKO full health Hydreigon?
>>58925889OHKO at full health with the stadium + Unown, I mean.
>>58925839How are the 2 pokemon for the archetype determined?That "Mimikyu EX Greninja" deck also runs Giratina EX, which isn't mentioned, but Mega Altaria decks with 2 Chingling switch archetype if they have a single Indeedee EX alongside the 2 Chingling.Also why are some archetypes the same, but in reverse order?Makes it hard to look things up.
>>58925806>Altaria>skillLmao>T1 either put down chingling or Meloeta>ball/Oak/Lisia/copycat to get whatever you're missing>by turn 3 you have a full board, are 1 turn away from swinging for 140 and can heal from basically anything that isn't a 1-shot thanks to Indeedee+ice pop>new stadium means you can retreat for free>in the worst case where you can't get Altaria ASAP, swablu's sleep can easily steal a win It's about as braindead as it comes.
>>58925839>and HydreigonAltaria literally has TRIPLE Hydreigon's player count in the top cut:https://play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/pmpt20/metagame?phase=2
>>58925941Plus, Altaria can even tech to OHKO a naked Snorlax EX with stadium plus Red.Hydreigon needs Unown plus Red, which hurts its consistency more than Altaria, because it can't run Lisia.
>>58925962Stadium + Red also breaks the Snorlax stadium, which Unown doesn't do.Barb + Nihilego only works once the Snorlax actually starts attacking and can beaten with Comfey.
>>58925889Ah, I suppose that this helps against Snorlax as well.They need one more ice pop heads.Lets Altaria survive an extra hit from both with one less ice pop heads, too.Guess that this game boils down to trying to play around how many ice pop heads you and your opponent will get.
Happy Valentine’s fellas
>>58926042Imagine wasting so much time clearing these annoying missions instead of fapping to your fav pokegirl.
>>58926082Too shit at the game to do it I see
>ANOTHER Planeta Zard-YThe fuck am I supposed to do with this?
>>58926175Trade. Charizard will always be on demand.
>>58925911If a deck runs 2 of something, the icon shows up. For example if i run 2 mimikyu 2 frogs 1 giratina it will show up as a mimikyu frog deck.
>>58926042i'm only missing the parade missions, those suck.
Ok, here's something important you bitches need to pay attention.If I have you added as friend since the game's launch, trading likes for tickets every day and even sharing some Deluxe cards we're missing, and then you send me a unprompted trade offer, for something I have on my wishlist, and you don't have anything on your wishlist, I'm gonna offer back anything of that rarity.I have no way to know what you need if you don't set up your wishlist.If you then deny that trade because you didn't need what I offered back (again, I can't read your mind through the phone), that's fine.But if you deny that trade and then unfriend me because I couldn't offer back something you needed (once again, I can't read your fucking mind you dumbass), then you're a pussy.You know who you are, you are here. I'm not name shame you because we're anon.Just know that.
>drama over heckin' digital trading cards
>>58926335Just put the fries in the bag lol
>>58926335You're right that people should put up a wishlist of they're going to be offering trades, but there's a way of knowing what they're missing even if they don't have one. You can just go to the card gifting option, see what they're missing and then offer that for trade.
>>58926503Not if they already got a share that day.
>completely brick and can't play anything>opponent is REWARDED for this with copycat and draws six cardsfucking epic game design bro. amazing.
>>58926535stop playing brickful decks sir
Soon it will be both TCGs complaining about Greninja.>Ability: Mortal Shuriken>Once during your turn, if this Pokemon is in the Active Spot, you may discard a Basic [W] Energy card from your hand in order to use this Ability. Place 6 damage counters on 1 of your opponent's Pokemon.>[W][W] Ninja Spinner: 120+ damage. >You may put a [W] Energy attached to this Pokemon into your hand and have this attack do 80 more damage.
>>58926546I can't tell what's meant to be broken or not in the TCG they all look jacked out compared to what we have here
>>58926555Just multiply/divide the numbers by 3 and it's pretty close.
>>58926557>by 2Goddamn fat fingers.
The new shooting star backdrop is cool.
>>58926535>"How dare I get PUNISHED FURTHER for my shit deck building" What a pussy.
Jerk off the AltariTard players, watch the cum drain from their balls!
Gonna WP an RR Mawile in 10 minutes
Nevermind.
wheres zekrom
>>58926546This is a lot more fair than pocket's versionIt's already pretty much what dragapult ex does, but pult doesn't need to discard or return a card to handWith mega gren if they return to hand, you can potentially hand disrupt them, or trashing water energy could be disadvantageous for them in some situations, especially since you need to give 1 up to do any appreciable damageIt's only (maybe) better than pult because you can theoretically use the ability separate from the attack (and/or use ability and switch to bench mon), but it's also three points where pult is 2Pult also has an incredibly powerful stage 1; frogadier has a good attack but it needs to attack to be useful; drakloaks can work multiple times from the bench
>>58926638>110 HP>lightning blast>3 lightning energy>120 damage>on the next turn, this pokemon can't attackThere you go
Actually quite a few nice FA cards from this new set.Got these (+2 cacnea) from a 10x pull which is probably one of the luckiest batches ive ever gotten (even though it's not that amazing)
>>58926646and 0 retreat cost, right?
>>58926657Let's just say it's not going to be 1
>>58926646>>58926657>>58926659Electric Terrain ability on a benchwarmer that reduces retreat cost by 2. There u go.
>>58926646>can't attackchange to "does 40 damage to itself"
>>58926647An immersive and a 2star is just shy of what I pulled in 110 packs (Diantha was a WP)I'd much rather have planeta Mimikyu than shiny Kingdra
>>58926666lmao i have never zoomed out or filtered by pack like this. I have opened 61 packs according to my number of pack points so 26% rate. I don't believe many are WP either.Anyhow the set seems pretty bloated but ny luck is starting to even out.
>>58926666Also are you saying those rainbow 2 stars were from WPs? I find it hard to believe you got that many of these from WPs
>>58926699That's not bad for 61 packsFor each set I hope for a FA Trainer, a rainbow, and an immersive or gold, I consider that decent luck>>58926702Only Diantha was WP, the rainbows were pullsMega Rising I did WP rainbow Ampharos, >Rainbow Greninja, and planeta Pinsir
>>58926715I don't seem to ever get the rainbows, which is why i always assumed they were rarer than the other types. Seems like everyone else has the opposite experience
Wonderpicked but I don't know why I even bothered. Total junk card.
>>58926732his new mat and sleeves have him in a stupid pose tooat least the coin looks good
>>58926732Got a Lisia for this dude a couple weeks ago, dunno what that guy was thinking but I’ll take it.
>>58926727The odds of any 2star are the same, it's just RNG, I have a couple more planetas than rainbows
>>58925520I was using it with the idea that it just needed to stay alive until the T-Rex swept but Rampardos is cheap as fuck so you may as well use that and you can win some without needing Tyrantrum at all. Kabutops was still working but they really killed the card with the addition of Rampardos.
>>58925325Ban this shit please
just spent 10ki shinedust trading for 3 diamonds because the pull rates on this 150 card SINGLE pack is possibly the most jewish thing dena has done to date. (my friends have shared me a few things I need but not enough to complete the dex before the next set)I shan't be pulling from it any more. guess I'm done collecting FA 1 stars too (24 in one pack lol. LMAO.) and i'm never gonna have enough shinedust to trade 2 stars ever again as a F2P. thanks dena. some great decisions you've been making.>no sneak peak>no mass outbreakbut you get shitty ribbons and the most braindead, unfun meta I have ever seen in any card game in my life. yippie!
>>58926912What non fossil are you using with Tyrantrum and Rampardos?
>>58927060Immersive Meowth. I saw someone using Smeargle but I beat him.
>>58926920Now you said this DeNA are going to put a crown ice lolly in the next set
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
>>58927104kwaboty
>>58927104get goonin'
>>58927104lmao i'm sorry but this is the exact kind of thing that would've happened to me if i ever saw one of these
>>58927104OOF
>>58927086
Does anybody want a Cynthia ?
>>58927245surewhat you want?
>>58927273Do you have Will ?
>just a 50 minute crash out over Hydreigon
>>58927104This is normal.
>>58927291>why all the newly released cards are not metaIce cream is newly released and is meta.
>It's another Slow Sear getting the worst possible fucking card episodeNigger
I just realize that my rank doesn't go down even if I lose when I have ZERO points on the rank bar, when they changed this? That menas if you are master ball rank, you never lose it?
Worst Pokémon ever
How is Poketrade? I downloaded it but at first glance the UI seemed alienating and slow since you seemingly have to go by wishlist instead of being more direct, and I kind of dislike that you have to register so I haven't yet. I've gotten a lot of nice trades I wanted from Pokehub but it feels too often like I'm compelled to trade down to make a trade happen, and for the more reasonable ones you have to camp out and keep refreshing endlessly to snipe who knows when, hoping someone else doesn't beat you to it which can happen anyway.
>>58927467Poketrade is awful if you can deal with Pokehub's ads. 50% of the time, people will ignore you when you state your interest in a trade.Lots of people have listed cards for trade but nothing on their list of wanted so you can't even initiate a trade.
>>58927327As far as I know it only works for Master Ball.
>>58927539I see. The Pokehub ads aren't that bad overall since you can back out of them to move back to the Pokehub screen. The only annoying one I found was the Pandora one because it has an auto loader, so I just close the app whenever I see that one as backing out doesn't work in time.
>A good pack used to have a one star>A good pack became getting an ex>A good pack is now getting a three diamond
>>58927539>>58927467>>58927571Adding to that, Pokehub is more idiot proof.Once you initiate a trade, the offer gets unlisted so other people can't keep offering you stuff for that card.And after you set it as complete, it immediately tells you to edit the trade or remove it.On Poketrade, that doesn't happen, so idiots will trade stuff away and the cards will forever be on their wishlist, so you're met with way more of "Oh I already traded that and forgot to remove it".
Somehow managed to get 11-winstreak on random solo expert with Tyrantrum a while back but haven't been able to maintain 5+ since
>>58927577I see, yeah I figured the clunky-looking UI would be filled with slowdowns and obstacles. Was just interested enough to look into it because of the number downloaded size.
>>58927104I missed a similar pack a while ago lol and I posted It here. I really don't care about diantha though
I’m firmly convinced the Lucky Ice Pop is bugged. Whenever I try any other coin flip card the rates are really 50/50 but I see that thing get like 8 heads or more way too often to be a mere coincidence.
>>58927576They nerfed the rates significantly for this pack and nobody can tell me otherwise.
>>58927579Do you get anything for longer win streaks?
>>58927671Every coinflip has a different true chance to happen. Misty and Team Rocket Grunt are below 50%. Ice Pop is above. Status affliction reset checks are above 50%. Celebi is slightly below 50%. We already know that they rig the chances for solo expert battles.
>>58927773no loleven the occasional NPC with blinged out decks can show up anytime regardless of win streak so it's not like you're getting more advanced opponents the further you go like Battle Tower
>>58927787NTA but have you seen any other full bling decks than the Psychic one? I've run into it 3 times in my time playing, haven't seen any others.
>>58927798I've only seen that one Gardevoir deck with Mewtwo and Mimikyu yes
>>58925520So that can be at most 90 HP if you field two indeedeex'sUp that to 110 if you get type advantage and more depending on if you use trainer cards. Sounds funny as hell if you get it working but given it's both a fossil (stopped by ChimChong) that's a lot of effort and a lot of fail points.
>Just got Rainbow Teal Mask Ogrepon>I like her (I find hilarious how Kieran got cucked by her and he went insane) but she is a "low liked".>Feel extremely tempted to trade hee for a Human Waifucard.Someone stop me! I am sure I can get a French FA Serena for her but half of me is fighting against doing that.
>>58928129Best I can offer for that is FA Juggler
>>58928129Your cards need to be liked by you, not by others.If you like Ogerpon, why would some rando's opinion matter more than your own?
>Toxtricity matlook at this lazy ass shitevery other mat has been custom artwork but this looks like they just posed the 3D game model a bit and slapped it on a gradient BG
>>58928158Ah, the serena playmap, I remember shitposting that Serena stuff was made by AI but it was done by Zounose himself. I hope he never learns about it, he may get mad and make a very edgy Pokemon doujin out of spite (in case you didn't know, Zounose is very infamous for his edgy "yokai eat humans" touhou doujins)
>>58928158Yeah the Toxtricity may is fucking garbage lol
>>58928204*mat
>>58925368>>58925734a new build was at a recent con, it looks a lot different than the beta did
>>58928278That looks like a phone battery killer, just judging by the amount of elements.
Does anyone need a Mega Gardevoir? I can't seem to pull a Mega Kangaskhan and would like to do a trade. Pleaseeeee9152361928360967
>>58928282the beta was pretty good on my phone, but they did say the new demo added more visual effects, cleaner animations and snappier controls, so who knows now.
>>58928129I give you a FA Alolan Dugtrio ex, best I can do.
>Drop the Nihilego+Barbs meme>Performance significantly improvesHydreigooners eating good once again
>>58928448That's the whole issue with Hydreigon. No matter what you add to it, it will make the deck worse, because Hydreigon is just that good. On the other hand, if you run only Hydreigon, you may end up bricking like crazy.
>>58927215Get out of my head!
Is Chandelure possible? I take it there's no way to consistently dump enough Supporters fast enough for it to be viable.
>>58928586I've seen it run with Gourgeists, it only costs 1 Energy & whenever you attack with it Supporters drop pretty damn fast
>>58928586I wish Past Friends let you multi turn stack boost with Portrait Smeargle and Penny, having to clog your deck with either of those would balance it out.
Day3 of RattataSpam until this DOGFUCKER unfriends me
>>58926230>Mega Altaria decks with 2 Chingling switch archetype if they have a single Indeedee EX alongside the 2 Chingling.
>>58928601I figured. I think Cofagrigus is the only other one capable of letting you discard anything on demand, but even if you can get an extra card in the bin, you don't want to cost 2 energy in case you go first. You might not even want to dump that many cards that early.
>>58927327>>58927565You can't drop out of any rank group.e.g. Ultra Ball 1 is a rank floor and you can't drop out of it to Great Ball 4.You can drop from Great Ball 4 to Great Ball 3, though.
>switch to hydreigon/absol for ranked after mimikyu/girstins wasn't working>immediately go on a ten game win streak
>>58928716Oh, that explains it, I was great ball rank 1. But I have a vague memory that you could drop group rank before, did they change it or I am insane?
she may just be a worse copycat / mars in one but she still cute
>>58929255I still want one for my Golurk deck. I prefer it over Copycat for digging out Helmet and the other Golett/lurk
>>58929255Why not use both?
I will USE my full art PENNY and there's NOTHING you can do to avoid it.
>>58929333Noooo don't copy my full art JUGGLER haha
>>58929255We just need anti-card draw tech.
>>58929454There's a nasty combo in Yugioh where you summon a certain monster that prevents the opponent from drawing outside the Draw Phase then you make them shuffle and redraw their hand with another effect, but they just end up with an empty hand because that monster prevents them from drawing. That kind of restriction could make Iono usable in the same way
>>58929255Could be bigger.
>>58929454
>>58929255She's pretty meh
>>58926042Jesus christ anon. Once they added in things like "use x amount of cards from this pack" I stopped doing them. I don't want to remake my decks each month with the newest cards only. It just got too tedious to do all the missions now.
>>58929514Yeah that mission's absolute garbage especially with the limited number of deck slots. When it asks for 12 fucking cards it's not even a practical build anymore, you're going out of your way to build a deck specifically for the mission by adding junk filler cards from the new set
>>58929461Oh right, I think rock pile was going that with one of the jars weren't they?Trickstar also did it with their trap and droll.
>>58929552Yeah I got hit by that and Artifact Durendal while dealing with a Memento deckChuckled at how absurd it was then just gave him a well-earned 5 minute timer stallFortunately Pokemon's too simple to be pulling off shit like that
sightseer’s ass is crazy
>>58929586canonically naked underneath the dress
Here we go again...
>>58929586
>>58929883You VILL buy ze CinderFLOP
>>58929910Yes, I like Cinderace
traded sightseer for PCL... Don't know of I did good, feels like the blue ICE pop made all other healing card worthless
So this is probably one of the worst expansions no? Ice pop is a terrorist card, i guess the only good thing it did was make tank decks viable but in a very toxic way. I really hope they wake the fuck up next set
>>58929932Status effects will become meta soon trust the plan
>ice pop>every jap and chink on ranked just run both in a sheer desperate reach to getting spoonfed wins>item literally nets infinite healing most of the time>Dena: durrrr urrrr why no old tiyme pwayer cum back to pway???They never cease to amaze me with how absurd they can power creep this garbage with every expansion. I pray for EoS if this is the direction the game is going. Paypiggies can get fucked.
>>58929936This meta has led me to close the app instead of conceding for the first time since I started playingGreninja? Hydreigon? Altaria? Lucky ice pop to heal 80+? turn 1 where I had a hand of 4 and you managed to dump your hand and then copycat? Enjoy the wait
>>58929237it must have been changed. i dropped rank in the past.
>>58929933the whole meta is just ass right now
>>58929937Same, when I see my ching chang opponent spam ice pops I always use up all my time for every turn. Wanna play like a faggot? Than enjoy the 5-8 minute wait for your measily 10 comp points.
>>58929948Just had a match where chandelure hit mega absol for 160 and they ice popped up to 110And then the fucker played a second ice pop; fortunately it only got to 130But I was preemptively fuming
>>58929936DeNa can't balance to save their fucking lives
>>58929964Balance doesn't sell half as well as imbalance does.
T_T
Can someone post a good Mega Blaziken deck for ranked pls
Already got mind broken by a single coinflip
100 damage for 1 energy is not so bad
opening packs is not as engaging as it used to be.
>>58930154you mean 70, unless you're assuming the opponent is staying in on their turn
>>58930174Well, yeah. When used in the right situation definitely throws people off with that deceptive damage stacking and low energy cost
>>58929918Anon I'm sorry...
>>58929461can't cards in yugioh be responded too with traps and such? in pocket something like that would be broken as fuck since you can't respond or even targeted removal. >Play "can't draw extra cards">Red card>laugh as you auto win
Holst Shit.My heart started racing after finally beating an Absol/Hydreigon faggot who had a literal perfect opening hand+copycat+5 icepop flips.
Is there an easier way to view cards that you have registered but not currently own?Scrolling 1 by 1 is slow & laggy, whereas scrolling through the PP store can get so monotonous I'm losing track
>>58930054This is what I'm using:Pokemon2 Torchic 1 Combusken 2 Mega Blaziken 2 HeatmorTrainer2 Poké Ball 2 Professor's Research 2 Cyrus 2 Copycat 2 Rocky Helmet1 Lucky Ice Pop1 Lillie 1 Pokémon Center Lady
>>589300542x chic2x mega ken1x bench sniper heatmor1x 30 dmg heatmor OR 1x the 30dmg furfrou 2x ball2x Oak2x copycat2x candy2x flame patchFrom here you add any combo of the following cards: Lillie, Cyrus, rocky helmet, ice pop or any other card you like.
>>58930204I don't care nigger
>>58929918
With flame patch to recoup the losses do you think you can actually make a decent deck with this dude?
>>58930500You can actually, it's going to work too, it's just that every time you try you're going to have to ask yourself why you're playing it over Mega KFC.
>>58930500Infernape's actually very usable now with Flame Patch yes. It's just been overshadowed by Blaziken which dropped in the same set
>>58930500Mega blaziken only discards 1 energy and has 210 hpOn the other hand infernape has free retreat
>>58929883I always win the normal card on my free wp and never get the promosAt the end of every event i only have the promos because of chansey pick, thats fucked up
>>58929936The issue isnt powercreep, its powercreep with no deck expansion or 5 or 7 point gamemodes, at this rate it won’t be long until every basic has 80hp and hits for 100 damage for one energy and the game is just whoever goes second wins
Hydriegon is so good because it doesnt give a fuck about going first or 2nd its great in both. Meanwhile some decks are unplayable going first
>>58930163fantastical parade is bloated and filled with trash like what the fuck are reshiram and yveltal doing here
>>58930163For packs to be exciting to open there has to be a posibility you'll open something cool, there are no cool cards in this set.
>>58930500No lol
>>58930163I feel like this is another consequence of the 20 card limit desu. FP has 155 cards and maybe 10% of those are actually worth using with how many mandatory staple cards there are: I'm not gonna get excited pulling a Crown Poncho because none of my decks have room for niche tech cards.
>>58925325Do you guys think immersives will ever be tradeable.My biggest fear with the new pack was getting only one immersive and not the other, and sure enough that's what's been happening. 3 gardevoirs and 0 meowths.
>>58930154130 damage for 1 energy is better
>>58930163Literally just spent the required Dust+HGs last night on the 15+ trades needed to complete FP, dropped it like a hot shit, & went back to CB for the golden buttplugFucking dogshit "set"
>>58930154>>58930818Remember when 100 for 2 energy was considered game breaking?
>>58930829Ayup, the retarded dildo-horse is still fucking gay
>>58928716I dropped to Great Ball 4 last season.
>>58930809While I hope they are, knowi g these fuckers they'd make it cost 100k dust. Not only that but I feel like immersives peaked back with Palkia/Dialga/Arceus/Giratina and most after that were just slideshows
Lucky Ice Pop should have been: >Heal 20 to the Active Pokemon. Then flip a coin until you get tails. For every heads heal an additional 20 to the Active Pokemon.If you use it, it's gone, you have to commit to it, you may lowroll or highroll and overheal, it doesn't matter, at least it's single use, not potentially infinite.
>>58930163It's been stopped be fun for me, honestly waiting on that other monster taming tcg mobile game to come out, heard its tcg is actually fun :)
someone get the windex! at this rate im going to streak all the way to MB
>>58930890It's not, Digimon is fast as fuck too. But at least the meta changes.
>>58930930I'd take it over this
Here's some codes, enjoy
>>58930505>it's just that every time you try you're going to have to ask yourself why you're playing it over Mega KFC.My only logic is that you have a safety margin with monkey because it's just an EX so that's potentially two you can let eat shit and still stay in the game versus having just the one where when you lose it it's over. That and has been pointed out it's neat to have zero retreat cost im sure some funny can be had there
>>58930951I took the first one. Leaving the rest for the other anonsThanks kindly for the share
This deck is fucking evil man.
>>58931012Someone at DeNa is a huge Hydreigonfag, hopefully they've been let go cause the game is fucked
>>58930951thanks anon. I hope that all your pulls are blessed. I took the middle one.
Am i bad or does ninetails woop hydriegons ass? I got to masterball just fine with a 65% winrate but whenever i ran into ninetails i always auto lost which was kinda funny
>>58929464Her tits aint that big and floppy
>>58931105Maybe? You do need 2 Hydreigon to get around it but it's more than possible. ANinetails has 150 HP, one hit from Hydreigon plus poison damage kills it. And while ANinetails effect prevents you from placing energy on the active spot, you can still use Hydreigon's ability to generate 2, which is enough to retreat it for the 2nd one.
>>58931211Hydreigon ability takes energy from the energy zone so A9 attack effect would block an Hydreigon in the active from getting energy
hate hydreigonluv me meowthsimple as
>1-use codesKind of the anon to post but these feel kinda pointless/stingy. Just publish 1 vode for everyone to use.
>>58930951someone already took the third one and didn't say a word :(
>>58931425It's a one code per attendee at the International Championship events.Anon and his friends probably don't play Pocket and decided to share theirs.
Zero 24 hour wonder picks in 7 days. Pure garbage.
>>58931523Do you have all diamonds? Mine are showing up as normal.
>>58931535Of course. I wouldn’t bitch about it if I did not. ;)
>>58931584I would re-check.
>>58931491They could give out a code for those watching streams of the event or the likes to try and motivate people to engage with the medium. Then again if they cared about that the meta would not be in it's current state.
>>58931761They had a twitch drop one time for the TCG Live game, you had to watch 30 minutes of some tournament to get a code to redeem in game and people threw a fit for it being "gatekept by having to watch the stream".
>>58931523First time getting 24hr WPs for me was near the end of Blaze so I didn't have much experience with itI completed the Parade dex last week, and been following the advice of not opening the app four hours prior to reset so that the WP selection will fully replenish after reset, and have gotten two 24hr WPs, and should hopefully get another tonight
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
>>58920494Is the deck fun to play with?
Got me my second Gourgeist but I'm not even sure what I wanted to use it with in the first placeGuess I can stop pulling this pack now
>395 pack points>missing almost all ex cardswhat the fuck did dena do to the ratesevery x10 i did was full white with barely 1 ex card in it (never more than one 4 diamond)
>>58932740The rates are literally the same.
whomst is better, may or sightseer
>>58932894may. Sightseer is useless
>>58932776if there's shitload of cards inside just one booster pack the drop rates are NOT the same
Each new drop I try new card combos and pick up the meta until I'm bored. The last two it lasted less than a week. I think this game is going to die soon
Does this card have any value?
>>58933116No? It's a digital card game, the game is going to go EoS in a few years and then even that Professor Oak chase card in Deluxe Pack EX will be worthless.
Anyone got a Mimikyu EX they wanna trade or share?
>>58933116I think you can get any 2* shiny you want with it so maybe, obviously not worth much cash though
>>58933078
>Very slow & costly for a small attack>Can't hold the line to get anything going>Dead weight if you can't pull Barbs & can easily die before you finally do>The deck initially doesn't want to be tanking all that much if it doesn't have to anywayBruh I love Nihelego & all but this meme just isn't for me
Strangle every AltariTard player, watch the life drain from their eyes!
>>58933455try playing the deck and you might even like it.
>>58933472No thanks, I'm not a lobotomized cumguzzling FAGGOT
The meta was awful from the start and when balanced sets like Ho-Oh/Lugia actually arrived the game was already irreparable, the people complaining about it only now just lack awareness>Misty>Celebi>Cyrus (game no longer able to recover)>Oricorio (further permanent scarring)>Hydreigon>Lucky Ice Pop
>>58933488your missing out on free wins.
>>58933493Game was ruined when they added too much card draw through sylveon and later suicune. They tried fixing it by giving draw to every deck through copycat but it just made it so much worse
>>58933493I would go so far as to say Wisdom of Sea and Sky was the biggest attempt to actually heal the meta because of babies helping fix Turn 1, which is sad because of how much more effort they put into crashing the game into the ground with their time.
>>58933493Aside of misty and lucky pop I don't think any of these are a real problem. The problem is the game mechanics themselves, and the videos not understanding how to make counters and a normal metagame.
>>58933493Megas made it unplayable
>>58933493Gardetwo and Moltzard were already broken.
>>58933493Honestly complaining about this game's meta is fucking stupid. A TCG with a 20 card deck will always be about luck first. You can ban cards all you like but this game will forever be 98% luck and 2% skill. Try a real TCG if you want to play a more skilled game.
To the anons that suggested PokeHub earlier this week, thank you. I managed to complete 5 1 star trades Eng-Eng in about half an hour.
>>58933651Hub trades tend to be more consistent but it can be such a pain to find a trade in it. Was looking for a Mimikyu and a Roserade and there were only 1 on offer for one and none for the other. I know it changes along the day but damn.Meanwhile in Trade fuckers will put up a card without a wishlist or will not respond for ages.
>>58933676They were very one sided, true. I'd say half of the 1 star requests I've seen are for Hydreigon and Obstagoon, unsurprisingly.
>>58933639>2% skillIs that the amount of skill required to attach energy to the right pokemon or to not fat finger playing an item from your hand? Because there are no other skills involved.
>>58933690On that note, I know you're likely out of trade stamina but if you wanna trade some 1* later on might be interested.
>>58933710I am completely out of stamina and out of dupes to trade back, kek.Will have to pull a few more packs or get lucky on WPs until I'm able to trade more.
>>58933706Yeah, I was trying to be nice because I have seen some opponents lose games they were absolutely going to win because of bad positioning or energy attachment.
>>58929883Good thing they added the excess ticket system for these and the unique promo cards, or else I'd be McFucking losing it right now. Hell, I already am; how does this shit happen twice?
>>58933887Congrats on 1/25.
>>58933891Thank you, thank you. Looking forward to tempting 1/125 within 24h.
Misty'd
>>58933903Based Draco Meteor (type) enjoyer.
god i need to stop switching to retarded meme decks and hemmorhaging ranked points
>>58933887This is completely normal. You could say the RNG is rigged, but if you did that, fanboys would shit all over you.
In a supremely comfy kind of world, froakie has 50 hp and my opponent ragequits
are there any field spells that supports fossil pokemon?
ice pop high roll ice pop highroll oh my god this game is in a completely unplayable state holy fucking shit. Like the concept of chip damage is killed, no longer can i put shit into range of a ko for later my faggot opponet will just use ice pop. Genuinely the first meta where i never grind ranked and dont make top 10k what a fucking shit show. Its just not fun
>>58933887I've been trying to get this Cinderace for a min, I wish mines looked like this
>>58934071The Stage 1 affects Aerodactyl.
>>58934078i will be developing a deck soon and you will all see that meta is temporary and for low IQ people but can be overcome i will do it, eventually...
>>58934078It's not even "chip damage" anymore. Basically, anything that doesn't OHKO is not viable.
>>58934078Yeh i have been blackpilled finally. My poison deck finally met its maker. All my other fun decks have had shit luck or just overpowered.It's over.
>>58934127>>58934136The weakness of hydreigon was that it would just constantly put itself into a ko range, and if they put indeedee in their deck then they make themselves vulnerable to cyrus or bad leads. Now? Ice pop just fixes all that its fucking nuts. You cant 2shot shit anymore all decks that apply fast but small pressure are just unviable forever, its all about altaria doing 140 for easy ass requirements
>>58933639>>58933706I honestly have second hand embarrassment from people who consider this game competitive. Like I cannot believe there are even tournaments for this game. And people track and study them. The top decks all basically play themselves so you would really have to be retarded to make a “bad” play with them.
>>58934273I accidentally dragged Copycat instead of Rare Candy from my hand today. Almost cost me the game. Almost.
You know, the chestnaught card could have been meta if it didnt have that horrifc 4 energy cost. That effect is legitimately super good.
>>58934422it got screwed just bad as Rillaboom
>>58934455They keep making grass cards with great abilities but horrible attacks, genuinely fuck dena. Meanwhile they gave dark a 130dmg 1 energy attacker
>>58934422but bro if it were three energy then you could do a six card (more than six because you need to draw/search) combo with b1 Eevee, leafeon EX, chespin, chesnaught, rare candy, and an X-speed and do 80 damage on your second turn (160 if they attack, which they obviously won't)!! that would be way, way too broken bro, how would hydreigon even be able to compare?
>>58925520i loved this card when the game first came out, shame it's basically shit now
>>58925325So is the plan for this game to just keep introducing progressively more retarded mechanics? it feels quaint to think about the times when i thought rare candy broke the game.
which of these decks will help me in the absolute bottom of ranked?
>>58934513My dude, I literally have a positive winrate with mega-amp in low ranks.Assuming your deck isn't just all 1-2 diamond, and there are still a few decks with nothing above 3 diamond that can still meme out victories like miltank.
Sneek Peak events, whatever happened there...
Remindercucktaria and fagsol using NIGGERS get no thanks.
>>58934791We're not allowed fun around these parts.
I HATE HYDRIGEION
What's a good deck against Medicham?
>>58934909Venusaur.
>>58934909all of them
>>58934792This but absol, altaria, hydreigon, greninja, blaziken, venusaur, gardevoir, kangaskhan, suicune, giratina AND sylveon users.
>>58934972Oops almost forgot jolteon too
>>58934972Do I get a like if I use Palkia/Manaphy/Misty?
>>58934792I'm at the point where they don't even get the concede, and I get to do something else
24h WP are the best thing they added to this game. Legit incentive to strive and complete a set early so I can fish for my chase card(s)The sheer peace of mind knowing I got the FA trainer I wanted and now I can fully devote my pack points toward the inevitable immersive gardevoir that will take me to pity, and not getting there and having to choose one or the other.
>>58935135I was very lucky to be able to get 24hr WPs as f2p, but so far the offerings have been both versions of Gigalith, and a rainbow SwampertFor the small amount of HGs I might as well, but these cards ain't what I want, and trading them away costs so much dust, baka
the Hydregion deck sucks in my experience. yes Hydregion only giving up one point is broken but it doesn’t matter because there’s nothing good to do with the other 2 points. mega absol sucks, normal absol doesn’t do anything by itself, nihilego sucks as an attacker. the deck should probably play 1 zweilous to increase the chance of getting 2 Hydregion out.
>>58935148The nice thing about them though, is that since each 24h WP takes 48 hours to appear, then you're guaranteed to have the 4 WP stamina required to WP them.
>>58935167Sometimes they take 48hrs to appear, and so I do small WPs so the stamina doesn't max out, because there's no guarantee I want the 24hr offering, I skip planetas (unless it's Mimikyu or Gardevoir)
>>58934909lmao any deck
>>58935135I didnt see a single 24h wonder pick since the new set dropped.
>>58935163Works on my machine, though instead of Leap Over Absol/Nihelego I run Furfou & 1 Rocky Helmet
Pretty fun deck, found from a Jap
>>5893513524 hour picks were fun until they decided to squeeze a 2-pack set into a single pack. I've pulled 5 ex cards all month, and 2 of those are duplicates.Ultimately, it's not worth losing sneak peek over them. It's just paypigs getting richer.
>>58934273Competetive is the death of fun really
>>58935406Competitive is fun if the game doesn't suck. This game feels like shit to play with something on the line because of how little is in your control.
Would someone kindly trade me a second Peculiar Plaza? Need it for my Lunala/Mimikyu/Giratina jank. 9087280399550751
>>58935507I can share you one. Don't suppose you have a spare Mimikyu, it's the last card I need.
>>58935406This is only true when the game is already dogshit from the start.
>>58935517Thanks man. Unfortunately not.
