Where did you go this week?I went to ggex and got dark, ghost, steelI have the Pokemon but they're not leveled up enough. Hoping Dorkrai can get me out of the jam if he procs enough
>>59136775Went to GGEX also.First roll was Flying / Poison / Steel which was unacceptable, rerolled and got Ice / Poison / Fairy.I just cooked dinner, have had one crit and at 540k strength. This is good pace to hit Master ranks by Thursday or Friday, my team focus is skill boosted cooking and ingredient gathering, with Wigglytuff healing and Walrein gathering berries (and the occasional ingredient magnet).It really does hinge on luck though with two Pokémon boosting tasty chances. I might alternate my Vaporeon with Mew if my ingredients storage caps out.
>>59136775Went to Lapis since I figured Expert would probably hamper my Latias Down gains. I have few skill types for the area, but it's not really going to matter much for the first week anyways.Looks like they also managed to integrate some event props into the background.

I didn't know why I get so many Calm Rufflets...
I purged a lot of inactives, pls add frens
Have 5 openings9500-6088-7647Already added everyone that's posted since last thread or we were already friends
Does anybody know if the event music is an original song or a remix? I only know that it's not from gen 3.
Purged a bunch like a year ago and kept forgetting to repost my code here.16 empty slots.
You probably ought to post your sleep name along with your code, because you have to make space before searching a friend code. Chances are someone already had you on their list, so they have to make space beforehand to even check.
End of day one, only one crit on dinnerDecided to use two whistles to barely reach the cutoff point for 8 spawns day 1, will hit ultra 4 in the morning for enough down to redeem for a latias incense which I've bought a master biscuit forAfter tonight I'll be high enough strength to have a shot at a natural latias encounter, so I wanted to incense on the only night I know I didn't have a shot at a natural encounter. Also less chances for a shiny to appear on the base latias
>>59137840Pretty sure all the songs in this game are remixes. I couldn't tell you what it's based off of though, because I stopped playing mainline before Latios/Latias even showed up.
Not bad for no prep, but I did get a couple lucky meal crits. There really aren't many bonuses power-wise, so I imagine this week is going to be pretty standard. Gardevoir is going to pull up a lot of leeks and corn though, which is nice.
>>59137840>>59138774It is indeed a remix, but it's not from the games.It's from the Pokémon Heroes film OST, "Search for the girl" or "Mystery Girl".https://youtu.be/PHTCoCpl9dAhttps://youtu.be/MT2EiDnQfIM
>>59139094Oh wow, it's been too long since I've watched M05. The only movie BGM I remember is the ocarina song from M02.Wasn't expecting Sleep to use any movie or anime content, but they had a bit that was obviously in Altomare in the Direct teaser and M05 is apparently the most popular in Japan so I can guess their line of thought
>>59139110I remember strongly disliking M05 when I watched it on TV years ago, since the story was really dissatisfying; bad people do bad things and a terrible upsetting thing happens with no bittersweetness. I don't remember the actual specifics though.Maybe the Japanese version was better executed? I got "what the fuck are you doing" vibes on the level of Rose from Sword / Shield.
>drifloon not stockpiling>mimkyu not berry burstingit's more over
I really can't wait to get rid of these, but you can only use them in Amber...
with all this sleep practise, one day ill be so good at sleeping that ill sleep so long that ill never wake up
>>59139772>tfw out of honey
>got my first Latias this morning>only collects tomatoes>>59139772>drifloon not stockpilingMy piss balloon refuses to give any ingredients
>>59141123Ah, I completely forgot about stat comparisons.And then I made this, but also completely forgot about event bonuses applying automatically on raenon. Whatever. This still gives a decent picture despite having +25% skill trigger and +1 ingredients per pickup.Looks like its energy recovery can even compete with Gardevoir, but Latias will be more inconsistent since it has to hit Pokemon individually. It's also a bit tricky, because unlike the dogs which barely activate on a good day, Latias can make better use of skill-related subskills and natures, more similar to Cressalia. Because Latias's skill is part Extra Helpful, Latias is really going to want BFS in case it hits itself. As it stands, it can probably be pretty decent with a good roll, but it's still going to require Latios to meet its full potential.
>>59141442Actually, sorry I misread the skill energy readouts, because that's not how it works at all. In these calculations, Latias will output a cumulative total of ~300 energy to random members, but Gardevoir is outputting 150 energy to the entire team (a cumulative total of ~750 energy). Given Dragonite and Altaria both have Charge Energy, Latias still might be fine as your sole energy battery on a full Dragon team.
>dedenne full with 1 pip left after dumping 2 great biscuits even though it was hungry
>>59143208next time you see it it'll be shiny
>>59143208>didn't buy ultra biscuitsNGMI
>>59143208>>59143591This is always my fear with feeding Pokemon. Or at the very least that it'll be hungry next time it shows up with no way to take advantage of it. That's why if I ever leave anything with extra pips, it'll have at least 3 pips left to be filled by either a Poke Biscuit crit, or just a plain Daily Biscuit.Overfeeding Pokemon always feels bad, so there should be some type of overflow compensation. The way I imagine it, if a Pokemon was going to become full from the base value of the biscuit used, some of the crit would carry over to the next bar... no more than 3 pips, I imagine.
Unfortunately, I don't think it's going to be worth using Latias in the second week. Even with the extra berry, its skill mostly amounts to less than 60 extra helps. While its own gathering is OK, your Latias is going to be at such a low level that most other Pokemon should overtake its berry power even with it under ideal conditions.
>>59147188It's not like there's a mechanic where sleeping with a Latias on your team has bonus effects either. So far that's only applied to Cresselia during that Vs Darkrai event, in the form of a Drowsy Power multiplier.Now there's an idea for a new main skill; Drowsy Power multipliers. That would definitely be something to restrict to a special Pokémon.It would function just like Tasty Chance S; applies to your next sleep session and resets during sleep research.An aside, if you're waiting until later in the week to use your Latias incense like I am, 2 star sleep requires Master 13 at Greengrass or Master 7 at GGEX.GGEX M7 has a higher strength requirement than GG M19, so if you're in this to try and discover all three Latias sleep styles you may want to consider going to regular Greengrass next week.GGEX is potentially better for increased chances at encountering Latias through improved research yields, allowing you get more incenses.
How does the bonus at ggex work? I always thought the first berry got guaranteed 2x power and the other two had a random effect. Is the first berry random too?
>>59148336GGEX works as follows>One of three effects is chosen, which apply to all Pokémon that gather Snorlax's favorite berries:>Berry effect where favorite berries are 2.4x stronger rather than 2x stronger>Ingredient effect where helpers gather +1 ingredients, sometimes +2 if they're ingredient specialists>Skill effect where skill trigger chance is increased by 1.25xThese bonuses can also stack with event bonuses, but are weighted against picking bonuses that overlap with the current event.E.g. this week's event features bonus skill trigger chances AND bonus ingredient counts for skill specialists, so GGEX visitors are more likely to get the berries effect than the other effects. (I got berry effect).>Primary favorite berry gives same-type helpers a 10% helping speed bonus and +1 main skill level>Secondary favorite berries have no penalties or special bonuses>Pokémon that gather non-favorite berries get a 15% helping speed penalty>Weekly missions feature 20 hour sleep missions, where 20 hours with the primary favorite type gets handy candy S, and secondary favorite type gets type candy S (technically better reward because they give more candies overall)>The master 3 mission incense reward is apparently decided by your primary favorite berry (though my mission this week contradicts that)Primary and secondary favorites doesn't affect berry strength, but it does decide if one type gets special treatment, and it decides what missions and candy rewards you get.There's also nothing related to Snorlax's dish request, just the usual thing where you're less likely to get the same dish request two weeks in a row (but it can still happen, or an event might have a fixed request).The phrasing of GGEX effects when you review them from the Map screen, also suggests that future Expert maps may have different effects. They may balance them around the fact that future maps will probably have fixed favorite berries (likely matching the current maps).
>>59148511Damn I thought the first berry was guaranteed 2.4 power. No wonder I've been so shit, I always get the damn ingredient bonus instead. This is the first time I've gotten 2.4 berry power and I'm on track to hit master by tomorrow instead of Sunday
>50% crit chance>No critFuck's sake, I'm already at Master, but this is still annoying.
Day 300 of my quest for a shiny female ralts.Seems like it will take more than a year. Since unlocking the lakeside I've been camping there every week besides special events that omit it, and only caught 28 ralts so far.Being able to swap out Darkrai for Mew has been a huge boost, not the least because Mew has always been one of my favorite pokemon. Not only is Mew getting me the right berries, my pokemon are now being flooded with energy rather than sapped of it, and I'm even getting tons of candies too. I keep a Kirlia on the field partly because of her Helping Bonus, but mostly just because I'm stocking up on Ralts candies.Part of me is hoping some events will omit Lakeside soon. I'm at 79% styles seen, and need 28 more to get to the next rank and they're not coming easy.
Currently at 5/9 ET crits so far
>>59149225Nice, I've been hunting for a dedenne for months. I'm close to giving up
