Events:
The tickets will influence a future event for August 27
>>59167264>Essentially nothing but Academy slop until Masters DayGrim
>>59167272Isn’t April always barren as shit?
>>59167264>Shitrrina yikes...
>>59167278What previous Aprils had was better than Academy slop
>>59167269The cafe theme feels pretty bad compared to the other two, it's just Darach + Mallow + more random characters with Valentine's altsNot like there's a shortage of cooks/waiters/etc. they could pull from
>>59167247I think that whole Pasio Academy thing is stupid.
>>59167301Last April had the ENTIRE MONTH being acedemy shit
>>59167312Always an exception to the rule. >>59167308So true
>>59167269So what is your pick, /pmg/?
>>59167364Haunted house but I feel it’s going to lose
>>59167269That says autumn 2027 anon
>>59167269Where is the bunny girl attraction?
>>59167364Anything but the café
>>59167364Band. We already get Halloween outfits every year and I don't really care about maids/butlers.
>>59167364Band it is.
>>59167269So who's going to appear for each attraction?Haunted house:>Ghost-type specialists how predictableCafé>Striaton triplets>Alice in Wonderland altsBand>Roxie, Piers and RyukiIf this is how it's gonna be, it's honestly going to feel like a rehash of previous events, no matter which attraction wins.>>59167422>Autumn 2027So that's how long it takes them to make an event. Do you think they'll release new alts too?
FUCK YOU, AND FUCK OFF DENA FOR THIS BULLSHIT>LMAO DIDNT ROLL FOR NY LANA WELL FUCK YOU AND YOUR TITLES HAHA
>>59167632LMAO!!
>>59167632No good dragon dps, anon?
>>59167629The trailer hadHaunted House: the fall versions of>allister>phoebe>acerola>mortyBand: the base versions of>lisia>tierno>roxie>giacomoCafé: the pal versions of: >marnie>victor>mallow>candice>dawn>also darachIn my opinion band is the only interesting one here because it's half altlets instead of a bunch of characters who are together on the pretense of having at least one alt but café's probably going to win on the combined boring lolibait power of dawn and marnie
>>59167638WHAT FUCKKNG GOOD IS IT IF FUCKING RAT JUST ONE SHOTS YOU?
>>59167651Let Zard sync instead.
>>59167669I DO BUT THEN GUESS WHAT HIS FUCKING SIDE MONS JUST CLEAN UP THE SLOPPY LEFTOVERS BRAVO
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FUCK THIS FUCKING GAME
>>59167683Yeah I couldn't do it either. Shit happens.
FFFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKJJJ
lmao rip
I know technically it's supposed to be an improvement that events can be cleared quicker with the points type events. But seeing that I only now cleared out the shop for the rerun something about it just feels more fulfilling than dumping stamina into useless training events every day. Theoretically it is a good thing for newer players to be able to dedicate stamina to the training area but I don't need anything there that it just feels like dumping it to the void.
>>59167695Skill issues
In all the groups they had them dressing up for a performance, yet they didn’t have Roxie dress in her sygna, nor Lisia in her New Years idol outfit, and also have their group Tierno. Seems a bit unfair?
>>59167798There are so many better options than Tierno and Giacomo, from Lillie to Adaman and Irida. Even Dahlia could've been there.
>>59167807Tierno > Lillie
howdy all! back for the week and ready to take your unit requests to use for the unova CSMM!
>>59167879as always
Irida chart
>>59167879Doctor, if you would pleaseOr any of her other fits

I pray for EoS
>>59167965EoSschizos got BTFO by the August 2027 announcement
>>59167879As always !
>>59167642Palentine's Darach confirmed>>59167675You needed to flinch/inflict status and a lot of restarts and good RNG. Should've tried earlier, not at the last minute lol
>>59167807Giacomo being part of the band attraction makes perfect sense, though. It's literally part of his character.
>>59168034But Shillie was near a flute at one point!!
>>59168015>fell for it award
Chart
Chartmine
>>59167807The only one that doesn’t make sense for band is Lisia. She’s a contest idol not a singer
>>59167629My guess is that they have Pokemon Legends ZA characters lined up. They definitely plan things a year in advance or more, even with help from TPC and Gamefreak, since they added Nemona 9 months after SV release.I am very surprised however because Autumn 2027 would place the event to be after 8th anniversary. I guess they don't want us to joke about EoS.
Charting
>>59167879A Skyla, dealer’s choice
Maxie and his teacher buddies colleagues on the podium!He managed to obliterate Alder and his team with an impressive (crit) sync nuke. Too bad I didn't record it...
>not using the Marnie thread again Ha….you guys are funny
>>59167807I think they intentionally tried to include as many regions as possible. Kalos didn’t really have much representation.
charting
Huh?
>>59168222Is there a list of these events somewhere?
>>59168223Absol’s youtube channel has a whole bunch, but I’m not sure if he still uploads them
>The Academy voting is to see what they'll do for the Fall/Halloween eventI guess they want to see if people still want the same old spooky day or want a change of pace.I want them to do Cafe, we only ever got one tea party event.
>>59168427I’m assuming fall means early October or November
If I pick tea party do I get Cogita?

>>59167807And don't forget Klara.
Weekly Unova Chart - Suggested teams Edition:Clearing every stage with the suggested pairs is fun and gives me the chance to use pairs I haven't used in ages.Posting with a funny pics of new 6Ex Pairs: Gloria, Xmas Rosa... and even Nate!
I will go with Cafe just because it should increase the odds of them adding Cogita or at least take Katy off NPC limbo.
>>59167305>it's just Darach + Mallow + more random characters with Valentine's altsYou are forgetting the 3 monkey dudes, Polteageist Lillie, butler outfit train bros, and maybe even Carmine.
>>59167695Isn't 30 FFA? Which means that you should be able to clear it if you cleared other stages.
>>59169030Cogita is one of the most likely characters to get added for the story and her being essentially a Cynthia clone lol
okay but where's the lewds?
I wonder what kind of unholy meta we'll have by fall 2027
>>59169295Arc Suit EX. First ones to get it will be Red and Cynthia.
Kill Tierno, behead Tiernodev.
>>59169091Fermented Cynthia
>>59168297Thanks, I found them.They're way too rare, I've only ever seen a handful of them in-game. I wonder if having a trainer on your expedition team prevents their events from triggering.
>>59169100Sorry, boris is too busy drawing Kitt porn right now.
>>59169295It's time to have a OHKO move without using Metronome
Supposedly there was a ban wave this morning? Anyone hear about this? Ive only seen it posted it on reddit(cringe i know, but it was too interesting to not click)
>>59169542sounds like copium
>>59169467OK, but the accuracy is 5%.
>>59169962Your Piercing Gaze?
Is /vg/ kill?
>>59169978Wake me up once they make Piercing Gaze cookies.
>>59170139That thread shouldnt exist. We have an entire containment board for ourselves yet they go out of their way to break the rules and post on /vg/...
I love my cute wife Whitney!
>>59170139>>>/vg/563554005>>59170187We don't want to associate with you
>>59170217Why are you here then?
-2, trying to minmax Kanto was fun while it lasted but I'm not gonna put much effort into interesting Charts so I'll just slap on Tower teams and call it a day. I'm too busy to really do much else other than the bare minimum, lately
>>59170217Why not? This is the Pokémon board.
>Lysandre owned a café>Sycamore loves visiting cafésIf the café wins, at least there's a chance of one of them (definitely Sycamore) appearing.
For the chartanon-10
>Japanese guy with the name シロナはオカズ joins my Gym>New player, actively participates, seems to be enjoying the game, proudly displays his Champion Red/Leaf/Blue while using 1996 Red as his main icon>Make sure to give him a like everyday>See that he recently renamed himself ポケモン大好き!You were perfect already fren :(
>>59170408Before
>>59169542Apparently they banned a bunch of cheaters who had an illegal amount of gems, that kind of stuff. It doesn't appear to be related to the Gym exploit.I got brain damage from reading their comments so you owe me one, anon.
>>59170413After
>>59170408The faggot probably got reported and penalized, and rightfully so.
So why tf is the trainer a day posts on xwitter that pops off is the Melony one?
>>59167247I love Arven and I'm glad I'm getting more content, but man, Academy slop is such a tedious fucking RNG fest. I've never gotten a good unit out of the academy because it's just so fucking boring to grind. Shit ass feature.
>>59170474We're getting Academy skip tickets this time to make it less painful.I get you, there have been some Academy units that I couldn't be assed to train properly, but the S+ ones that I did bother with are pretty damn good.
>>59170470She has huge tracts of land.
>>59170607Shes a hags tho and kinda of a bitch according to Gordie
>>59168484One of the picks is Haunted House, they wouldn't do 2 spooky events in the same season if it wins. They occasionally don't stick to a holiday and do a different event in place of a holiday period, like how the tea party event happened in place of Easter.
????They can’t find the cheating can they
Hahahahahahaha
You didn't take the hush money, did you?
>mastersex is rank 270It's over....
lmao
Academy tiered scouts have no scout points? Does that mean I won't be able to guarantee Gladion from it?
didnt get first in gym this time which means everyone else are working hard! at least we did well boys

>>59171609>>59171599There were two guys who went AWOL like a day or two before the event ended. WE WERE ROBBED!
Carmine is the love of my life.
Camping buddies! We did good!I’m removing END, Ernest, LAMOUTTE, and Lucky from the gym btw

Dev message regarding the gym battle exploit
i think we did decently well for a more casual gym
105, not as funny as 101, but what can you do when two people refuse to use all tickets...
>>59171691Have they ever thought to learn how to take action against cheaters? That's why sometimes it's fine to call them 'j3ps devs', right? They are thick skulled, I mean I guess they will fix the issue next go around, but why aren't they doing anything about the cheaters? Are they whales??? Asians are so retarded.
The japs are NOT happy...
>accidentally skipped a battle using non-Academy pairsIs this passable?
>>59171738you can do better
The comparison screen at the end is genuinely great and it's something I left feedback for. Though it's not perfect and some green tiles that should line up exactly aren't compared properly.
>>59171705No more gold frame for you!
>>59171749>discordtranny link nameAbsolutely deplorable, hope they flag it
>5000 gems>4/5
I think It's probably because I don't have any decent Physical Normal Striker, but the fucking Skwovet feels perfectly DECENT compared to the garbage that was released up until now.(I went with D-edge Hyper voice and Brutal Swing but Maybe I could switch one of these last two for the boost in Attacks)
>>59171663I'm once again asking to join a VeePee gym that can score into the 500 mark.
>>59171599How could you guys let the pokeboy camp gym beat you? Shameful performance
>>59171721>Have they ever thought to learn how to take action against cheaters?Nope and never. Just take your free non-paid gems and be happy about it.
>can't skip lv140 fightsNothing fucking changed
>>59171828>can't skip fucking Tierno's fight
>>59171780Gym lead here. There are going to be 4 spots open in Male Protag's Campfire. No offence but saying you just want to join a gym that can readh top 500 isn't the greatest sales pitch. Top 500 is a piece of cake. It's top 100 that we're aiming for.But if you're actually serious about wanting to join, you can dm me on discord: "pokepunk.exe" is my disc name. I'm going to select the 4 best people after the results period ends.
>>59171915What's your track record as a gym and why would I pick you instead of other 4chan gyms?
>>59171721>Have they ever thought to learn how to take action against cheaters?I mean, what exactly could they do? They didn't hack, they just exploited the event mechanics.
>>59171738Aim for S+ (yes, it's possible as a F2Player)
>>59171920Well, I don’t know, you replied to me. Or maybe you’re not the guy who replied to me but you’re supposed to sell yourself to me not the other way around
>>59171927>they just exploitedThey were also very vocal about exploiting them, so slapping them for it is exactly what they could do.But posturing against exploits and cheating without ever taking any hard actions is standard 'competitive' Pokémon behavior.
>discord trannies forcing you to join their secret clubs and grovel at their feet to let you in their gym>kicking people out because of their rosters and not lack of participation>tryhards crying about their members and cheating gyms despite still getting good scores Here's your casual game bro
>>59171969that's just one gym
>>59171969What did everyone think was going to happen with pvp in a gacha game?
Is there any point in trying to build this academy pair if I don't roll for the bonus pairs?
>>59172010Just gamble for Oak and Oak (Blue)
I'm just glad we got all the rewards and a cool title...
>>59171982No there's at least 2 or 3 "4chan" gyms with tranny circlejerk secret clubs
>>59172034Only one of them is purging casual players for their roster.
>spent ~80$ trying to get Arc Suit rina >Every 11x scout gives me Kiawe and MarowakFuck your game, fuck your Jap shitI’m done with this sunk cost fallacy bullshitFuck arc pairs, fuck ‘tendoTwo nukes unironically weren’t enough

How do I actually use the academy attraction tickets lol
>>59172322It's in the Shop

I counted at least 20 units I'm missing, is it worth it to get academy'd four extra times

Cute girl only full ontype.
>>59172544C U T E
>>59171994It wouldn't be this way if there weren't gems on the line. So much for "you only have to log in every day". It's now "you have to play optimally and roll all the meta units and use external communication apps or get kicked out".
Do I just keep resetting the academy if I don't see Oak/Blue round 1 or do I just press on until I get something resembling an ok unit?
>>59172765You can't get either of them on the first round. Reset until you see Red.
>>59172765Blue only shows up after mid termsBlue never shows up if you tap OakPersonally, I reset until I get a TM with red or blue balls turn one and then just work from there.It helps if you map out what you want in the grid and how many orbs that means to collect (accounting for the fixed exam rewards)
>>59172774>Get two Reds>End up completely bricked by MidtermHow fucked am I? Do I pray for Blue or should I just reset?
>>59172789No I'm pretty sure they changed that and you can get both Oak and Blue. Either way Oak is a waste of time though.
>>59172791One Red should've been enough in this run. It's easy to end up getting too many orbs of one color (especially yellow ones) and too few of every other color.I'd say in this case it's better to start over than hope for a miracle on the second half.
>>59172797Gambling on Blue is enough for me, I don't need to add an additional gamble that they changed previous behavior just to flip another coin.
>>59172800Figured. I actually got pretty close to killing the max difficulty Houndoom but a burn fucked me over.
>>59172746If you get filtered by a minimum of communication and don't care about the rewards, just look for a casual gym that fits that.
>>59171969Im happy being in a casual gym. We only ever ranked around 2500 both times with only like 8 of us actually participating. But im arguably the best player and I even try to fodder my tickets to help my weaker gym mates. The gym owners here are status obsessed freaks. Especially the owner of hazard hall and that one hildafag boasting about paying to be in one of the top gyms that the owner of pomatools runs.
>>59172965>The gym owners here are status obsessed freaks. Especially the owner of hazard hall and that one hildafagImaging posting this in the same thread as>>59171663>>59171915>>59171941
I want to say thanks to the Master$EX bros, for everyone's participation and where we ranked. Shame about the bug that people were in on, but making top 500 again is great. It's a good thing they're going to "fix" the issue, because I was not about to make this into a job for myself or anyone else, no discord or zoom meetings just to fucking place high in a game like this. Not planning to clear any space this time. Again, thank you for the effort this season, here's to hopefully many more.
>>59172976I didnt even read the posts earlier in this thread. Sure add male protag on too. I posted that based off this past week and the last gym event. I only remember hazard hall and the hildafag gloating/announcing kicks and doing stupid shit like that.
I really wasn't paying attention, did they give us ranking rewards automatically added or did they go to the gift box, or they're not out yet?Also, who else is having to wait forever to make a post?
>>59173006>I only rememberYou halucinating things does not make them true.The only gym announcing kicks and doing dumb recruitment based on player rank was Shota Camp.
>>59172965>We only ever ranked around 2500 both timesThat sounds more like a "mostly not playing at all" gym. I'm in a casual gym and we were in top 500 both times.
>>59172986You know what you're doing. You're not slick.
>>59173049Could not give a shit about your circlejerk, sorry.
>>59173064Notice how you didn't mention I was wrong? I see right through you.
>>59172965Based>boasting about paying to be in one of the top gyms that the owner of pomatools runsHoly shit, what a massive faggot.
All male chart for the weekWith further proof that 4chan gyms can score in the top 8, even without exploiting bugs
The least they could have done was given Perrin a shiny Noct.

Chart for first time in 5ever>>59173444Hello>>59173454Thanks anon
I don't understand how or why anyone would know what units other members are using. That would mean you would have to read through all the logs and keep count of what each member used to know who to kick out. Just because they didn't roll for all the arc slop and meta slop and max them out with candies and not because they didn't participate or did but played half assed. Actual psychotic behavior.
Yeah i dont really understand those gyms. The timeframe between new arc releases are so short its impossible to guarantee them. not to mention you need 500/500 for pity and still need at least 3/5 copies to make them usable for these end game content
>>59167269>see Candice>vote CaféSimple as.
>>59172986you're never going to get an Olivia alt unless your gym can get top 100. Prove you can hang with the whales or the devs wont respect you
>>59173665>I don't understand how or why anyone would [] readThe brightest of leeches
>gauntlet and academy in the same weekCharting during the uncomfiest time in Masters
>>59171969This is why I avoided 4chan secret clubs and just got into a normal gym (and what a shocker we can hit top 500 anyways so who cares), also the top rewards arent even good enough to get turbo sweaty over.
I think they already, rightfully, had their Cafe event ready anyway, they even pandered to it in the academy story.Sucks to be a lame band character knowing haunted house will get its second place doubling the band votes.
>>59171969Your application to Hazard Hall and Shota Camp has been…..REJECTEDHave a nice day :)
>>59174222I didn't even apply you passive aggressive tranny. I'm in my rank 1000+ random gym.
It's my cute wife Whitney on the chart! Almost forgot to post it!
>>59174402For calling me a tranny, you've also been rejected from Master$ex. Have a nice day! :)
>>59173403No way, PreciousRed is real????
>>59174552She has always been his pre-ruse reveal coddler and yellow fever foid.
>>59173683This kind of shit is why new players are non existent. New players get fuck all for rosters and the only content is endgame for trannies.
The more I look at the new academy stuff's kit the more pissed off I get.
>>59174564>yellow feverBased
>>59174507>>59174513And what would you do if I also called you a faggot?
>>59172746My gym got to 450th place with 5 people using less than 18 tickets total and another 5-6 people scoring constantly under 50k with 3 tickets and arc units. I'm the leader and I'm f2p but a day 1 player.As long as you don't aim for 100 it's rarely worth worrying about gym battles, sweating like crazy for 500 gems and a SA Candy isn't good for your nerves
>>591736833/5 minimum to make them usable I use my 1/5 arc Cynthia as rebuff + zone bot and I got to stage 29 of the tower pretty easilyAnd 1/5 arc Steven was enough to do steel 30 in like 3 triesSame with 1/5 arc N, easy dark 30
>>59174591> Says this> The real reason new players don't last is actually how absolutely overwhelming the game is on a new account, with a million different modes and not enough stamina to remotely cover even just the newbie friendly modes> A new account that rerolls gets 4 pokefairs for free, almost 100k gems in the first 3 days of playing, tickets for gen pools like rain AND get go grab 9/10 of rally missions without having to even clear a rally
