First for Mega Fug is SHITE
>>59453716Nah, I can see it being good. The idea behind it is definitely to use the new stadium to trash energies like every turn for big damage.
>>59453600her tits better be what's poking out of the card frame in her FA
>>59453745it will be her BIG MEATY GLOVES instead
>>59453600>adding his shitty cuck fetish into the OP
>>59453755that and her weird hair thing
>>59453757Welcome to 4chan, you're here forever.
Pretty cool.
>>59453778fatass squirrel calls for you
>>59453778Damn, ミクリ posin hard for that little ガール
What are best decks for current ranked?
>>59453600anyone wants to trade their Juliana for my FA Sableye? I know it's a longshot but no one is responding on poketrade
Can't wait for the trainer card that wasn't shown in the trailer that forces your opponent to flip tails on the sleep coinflip to make sleep scam even better!
>>59454258
>>59454270>flips any coins for an attackFlipping coins to wake up isn't an attack, so it doesn't work
>>59454274I thought of the wrong card and didn't bother to actually read its effect.
>>59454280A card like this would unironically kill the game. You'd be forced to run Ogerpon or sleep and everything else would be shit-tier, it would be the cancer to end all cancers. >but counterplayYou'd need at the very least 2 cards to counter a sleep combo with that terrain and that's after already taking 50+ dmg while your opponent ramps for free.
>>59454309>A card like this would unironically kill the game.Honestly, bring it on. I want to see how bad it will get before EOS.
>>59454309seeing them release that fucking milotic ex when everyone was already complaining about sleepspam gave me the impression they're intentionally giving us the middle finger honestly
>>59453778>"puppy loving girl"why are there no dogs in this game?
>>59454383They couldn't get the license for your mum.
>>59454341Even before Milo, Darkrai being 3 colorless means they fully intended for it to be splashed into every deck possible
>>59454488They had the benefit of the doubt then they introduced Darkrai, maybe they just forgot about Igglybuff. Then they introduced Espeon in the following set, and then Milotic in the current set.
>>59454211RR? Ok Can you post your code for me?
>>59454496Without igglybuff sleep likely wouldn't even be a strategy. Espeon is nice but it's really only used by altaria sleep decks as an intermediate attacker, and milo has pretty much disappeared from ranked completely. Igglybuff just breaks sleep wide open with darkrai, being able to 30/50 damage turn one, and severely punish out of place EX's is just far too much value to pass up. That job used to be greninja's, but dropping 6 cards in your deck for 6 more basics just benefits Altaria far more.
Ayup, DarkTooBox/AltariTards/SleepNIGGERS still deserve the rope*sips*
>>59454579I think Espeon would still see use, because it can shit out a disgusting amount of damage on its own. Altaria is the most common sleep deck, anyway. Not to say I disagree with Igglybuff being the biggest issue with the strategy. It can prevent you from doing so much on the second turn if you get a bad coin flip.
>>59454552(me)>FAI'm sorry Maybe I misread.Whatever, I'll take it >>59454211
>>59453600I need her to make a display board with Elesa
>>59453778We won, bros.
>>59454662Yeah it's just FA sorry, i don't have the rainbow one. 3314056578985748 here's my code if you still wanna go through with it
>>59454751Sent. Sableye icon.
>>59454579Espeon would 100% still see play since it's basically an Exodia and if you get a perfect hand going second you can just win outright and if not you can kill your opponent's momentum. Plus with swablu having sleep the Darkrai synergy was already there and the deck would have been a menace regardless, just not quite as disgusting.
Theoretically how much does the new skyla card help mega scizor?
>>59454770accepted, thank you
>>59454805Probably Wally helps more
>>59454805You can play fewer copies of Revavroom or just replace them all with Skyla I guess but Scizor's main issue is needing 3 energy
>>59454812Wally is stage 2 only brother>>59454814Yeah 20 card decks is a nightmare, idk what you would cut for it since Revaroom is still important to kill oricorio
>>59454881They should keep a 20 minimum, but let people go up to 30 or something. So many decks are completely unviable because there's simply not enough space for anything more than an evolution line and 2 basics.
>>59454895Copy cat ruined the game, instead of decks fitting in a consistency card that fits the archetype of their deck>sightseerer, may, poke comm, julianaThey just shove in 2 copy cats and call it a day. Copy cat is truly a broken card, i remember being afraid that the 1st anniversary pack would be impossible to power creep and its been true so far.
>>59454881>Wally is stage 2 only brotherMega Gengar A-tier, that's it.
>>59454910ok i wouldnt say ruined but everytime we get a 100% include card it makes pocket less fun. You make a deck and 2 slots will be taken by copy cat, 1 by cyrus, etc.
Anyone willing to trade trainers? I'm looking for Diantha, Nurse Joy or Irida0187138380709109
>>59453600Urge.... to..... colonize...... Skyla...... RISING!!!!!
is ranked dying or some shit. Im making a last second push to top 10k and it matched me against the same faggot using fighting type sleep 4 times in a row, is there no one else playing this bullshit game?
>>59455025Added you, got a Nurse Joy to trade!
>>59455085Cool. Trade is up now
>>59455091Thanks mate
>>59455097Thanks! >>59455025Also FYI for anyone else reading I don't mind trading my other Elesa for Irida or Diantha.
>>59455104frankly im just shocked you got a pcl for one
>>59455114Waifufags stronk!
Reminder that Mega Fug's supporter will actually be Ansha
>>59455128why
>>59455081Most people finish their ranked climb early on amd mever touch ranked again till next set and then there's also timezones to consider.On that note, how many points do you even need for top 10k?
>>59455237Currently 1,146 to be mid 7000's
>>59455163They saw how hard lolicons rolled for Puppy Girl and know they need to cater to the true whales.
>>59455288>They saw how hard lolicons rolled for Puppy Girlhow much is she worth?
>ice pop>opponent heals 80 hpI love how this card just fucked the game forever
>>59455288She's a favorite for Japanese players as well.
>>59455368I got 2 of them and was able to trade Japanese players for a Copycat and Sabrina. Though this was week 1. I just had good luck.
>be Galladefag>he's a shittier version of FurcarioFor fuck's sake.
>>59455520Mega Lucario was truly a mistake. He's really the best fucking fighting type. 90 damage straight up in the face for just 2 energies with the ability to hit harder after a single ramp is just insane. I have no clue what the fuck they were thinking. He hits way too hard way too fast for other fighting types to really compete with. His HP should have been way lower to compensate his strength, he should have been like the most glass canon mega with 160HP.
>>59455520Gallate has more hp, ten more damage, and can be ramped. what the fuck are you talking about
>>59455520Their aiming for brand consistency.
>>59455579But Lucario easier and faster to get ready, and they trumps the benefits of Gallade.
>>59455590Meant to reply to>>59455573
>>59455520Im not even sure if its better than the other Gallades
Welp, if this general's track record is anything to go by, Gallade confirmed to be the megastar of the next pack that will be in every fucking match during ranked and obnoxious to play against.
Improving oncoming!
>>59455701Honestly if I'm wrong, I win. I mean, it's literally one of my absolute favorites.The real test is whether Mega Fug is truly garbage or not.
how many hourglasses are you gonna drop on mega fug?
>Rainbow Cave>WallyWhich Pokemon will you try to redeem and fail first week?
>>59455756Flareon EX. Feels like it can make a comeback with Rainbow Cave and Flame Patch giving it a Hydrageon burst with less recoil, on a stage 1.Flygon EX may work well given it can use Wally too.
>>59455760I can see flareon making a comebackGood eevee and the new cave and we are cooking
>>59455748the only good dragon for its time was dragonite in fucking 1a genetic apexthe fact that i have to go back this far to point out a good usable dragon that wasn't used as a statstick wall is sad as fuck
>>59455780Flygon EX is good tbqh, the ability to hit the entire enemy team and open up the possibility to snipe with double Cyrus is just too satisfyingAs usual energy is the issue.
>>59455760Blacephelon ex?
>>59454383sex
>>59455288The Epstein class needs to be purged
>>59455935This but unironically
>>59455737inb4 it runs even worse
Don't you love when you can predict the exact card combo the other guy would need to fuck you over before you even get a second turn and it's exactly what he gets because this game is a rigged piece of shit? Mind you I mean a 4-5 card combo, not 3 cards like Iggly darkrai
I'm sure many of us were considering it already but the new set might even give this sad excuse for a card a fighting chance
>>59455414And they still haven't brought up a more viable reiteration of claydol's ability
>>59456173lol. lmao even. It's literally Lugia but less damage and loses the game when downed. They could have at least given it Lugia's damage, but being 20 less is a funny slap in the face.
>>59456177Cards like this and Lugia need ramp as crazy as Dragonair to work. Honestly though I'd be experimenting with Necrozma ex before MLatios.
>>59456173I forgot this card existed.
>>59456192The game is way too fast now. By the time you get 4 energy, even if you get lucky and it alternates each turn, your opponent will have already drawn half his deck.
>>59455701I'm just gonna hate looking at that stupid dweeb Wally all the time. This dork had to have one of the game's best abilities yet?
>>59456199The deck destruction will never be hitting at a time it would actually be very useful, but the silver lining with that card is you theoretically get dragonair and lusamine. Maybe, by the looks of it, even a psychic baby ramp.
>>59456215That's such a big combo, and hoping that your 1/3 baby gets into your starting hand instead of drawing a singular Dratini or Necrozma at the start of a game.
>>59456220Well, you get a little time after just letting something hang and die in active to gather the lusamine and dragonair combo. Those two can get you swinging four energy from zero in a single turn. Hardly a brew of an idea, just an on the spot consideration.
>>59456228Both Lusamine and Dragonair are only useful if you get enough of each discarded energy. Getting 2 of each energy is going to be difficult with how energy generation works. Even Flygon decks will regularly get cucked by 3 fighting or grass in a row.
Your move /vp/.
>>59455287So did everyone jump into comp or are there brackets because I just got to 1130 and still unranked
Steven soon...
big update. make your bets, will they fix the game and add qol improvements or will they just add a new currency system for paypigs?
>>59456561banlist soon trust the plan
>>59456561They're just moving it to a newer version of Unity and leaving it at that. No new features aside from counting existing cards for deluxe.
>>59456245Since when tcg cards have such ridiculously big HP numbers?
Even in the events I don't even bother with these use 6+ cards from the latest set anymore, especially if they're not going to give us more deck slots
>>59456561Really hoping the load times are being addressed, whenever I try loading into the selection for Random/Event/Step-Up/Ranked/CPU screen not even the fucking match itself I get to go take a piss before it's done loading even for a REMATCH
>>5945671212 cards is pretty fucking stupid, even the rental decks don't have that many sometimes and you those are rarely made to survive expert missions
>>5945680212 cards isn't too bad for full sets, but mini sets never have enough of a single type + trainers to actually make a deck capable of beating the cheating AI. You're better off just using Golurk for them.
>>59456245*deletes u*lollmao
I want a mon whose ability is that you ignore the text on any attack.
>>59455780Flygon is broken once it gets out, its stronger than most megas. What holds it back is mixed energies making it auto lose 25% of the time
>>59456802>>59456712Just use the puppy pall deck.
>*wailordbros entering ub*
>>59456579>>59456579>Good news trainers!>We've been listening to your feedback and we understand your frustrations!>Certain cards have had an unfortunate affect on deck building and tournament play and we regret that it's caused so much grief amongst the playerbase>Going forward OgerponEX, Comfey, Pokemon Center Lady, Big Malasada, and Steel Apron are now unavailable for competitive play.>We felt deckbuilding had become too constrained and too many decks were including cards like OgerponEX in their deck when they weren't even playing grass types!>This should break open the number of viable strategies in Competitive play and we're excited to see what you guys can come up with>Also, more exciting news!>Please give a hearty welcome to Professor Elm>The professor is another promo card just like Prof. Oak and can even be slotted into decks that already have Prof. Oak>Professor Elm is a uniquely variable card that will either draw you 2 cards, or if there are no other cards in your hand draws 5.>We hope you're as excited as we are about the changes going forward!
Currently 1200 points for mid 6k ranking.>>59456281I'm pretty sure unranked works differently all together? I haven't been unranked in over a year so don't even remember how the rank placement works.
>>59457336You forgot they're also adding a new Musharna card with 140 HP that heals 40 HP if your opponent is asleep during each checkup and has a 1 energy 60 damage move that puts them to sleep...
>>59457357And Munna, who's ability just lets you put them asleep if it's in active :^)
>no deoxys stillwhat the heckin flipit was a perfect time to have a 2 pack expansion with one being rayq and the other deoxys
>>59457387>2 pack expansionThese don't exist anymore. Sorry. DeNA realized that they make more money by overstuffing one single pack so it's harder to get your chase cards than single them off. Because someone like you will focus on the Deoxys pack to get your bro, and why make that easier when they can instead make you pay money to buy the one single pack with more diluted chances? Plus. that's one less immersive you have to bother making artwork for. And we all know DeNA has no budget for artwork anymore so...It'd be pretty funny if we do get Deoxys this time around, btw. Rooting for you, bro. Here's to hoping we get Deoxys EX which was unrevealed. But dual packs just aren't a thing anymore and probably won't be coming back.
>>59457393Honestly I hate double, or god fucking forbid, triple packs.Ever since they switched to single I always managed to finish the basic card dex, unlike before. Maybe it's just me, dunno.I only got cucked with Fantastical Parade getting 3 immersive Meowth and 0 MGarde lmao
>>59457523With trades being available from day one of a new set, there's no downside to having a single one, because even if the odds of pulling a dupe is higher you can just trade it.
>>59457530The chances of actually getting a dupe is much lower.
>>59457539If we're talking about completing a diamond set and considering the highest the 4 diamond cards, no.On 1 pack sets, at 9/10, the odds of pulling a dupe is significantly higher than if you had 9/10 on a 2 pack set because you would just pull from the pack you're missing one, making it effectively 4/5.
>>59457569The single-pack set has a bigger pool of cards for each rarity, it's much harder for you to get multiples of any given card for that reason. And because of this, people aren't going to be as likely to get rid of their cards because they also have a bunch of one-offs.
>>59457576For every person that completes a set without a dupe, there's one with multiple of the same copy.Trading day one has made it a lot easier to complete a set during the month it was released, which was my main point replying to the post talking about managing to finish the basic dex now unlike before.It has virtually nothing to do with it being 1, 2 or 3 packs.
>>59457586Who is trading away their dupes for old set cards?
>>59457387This will be like a big 3 in 1 with mega primal groudon and kyogre ex, deoxys will be the poster card for the second hoenn pack
>>59457588I don't know. I didn't mention anything about old sets.

Did anyone her buy cheaper gold from these wonky sites that sell them?
REALLY liking Munchlax, between the Energy free draws & cycling through with CC (or CC'ing after my opponent CC's me) shit gets online WAY faster than ever beforeThough occasionally I'm feel left open for my opponent to set up, should I try putting in a Leaf or Koraidon to help my fat chud son?
>>59458122Oh wait nvm Koraidon as your lead fucking sucks whoops
>>59454723Gaaaaaaaay
>>59458122I like using Munch in my Flygon ex deckThat 2 retreat does cause some problems occasionally though
Neat.
Why does the new butterfree get used? Looks nothing special to me
>>59455079It can go higher?
>>59458575As long as Caterpie is your active mon (& at least 1 Metapod in your deck), when the opponent's turn is over it'll automatically evolve which is a natural workaround for Sleepfaggotry.Then you can evolve AGAIN (on any turn after your 1st) & it's specs aren't too bad eith 130 HP, low cost, & some healing. It's not perfect but the speed in which you can get online is great for milling AND staying around until you've built up your main guns.People mostly use it for death-stacking to fuel Hisuian Zoroark & friends but those traits can still be very useful on plenty of strategies.Tldr;It's decent & I can see it used more in future expansions
>>59458122(not me)>Snorlax lead>"Okay, I can take a breath-" >*POW*>Be like "wtf happened" the entire match >Take a look at the picture >Remember Barry existsMaybe it's better I stick to sudoku for a while >>59458612Isn't m-Sceptile more solid than Zoroark at the end?
>>59458575it has stage 2 nonex stats on what's effectively a stage 1 thanks to caterpie, and you can run 4 copies of it in your deck thanks to quick-grow. we've genuinely never had a more consistent stage 2 pokemon before, sceptile butterfree is a double stage 2 deck and it's the most consistent deck in the format right now, kek.it just beats over other early attackers due to high stats and self healing, it's difficult for many decks to put down without using their main attacker which is usually gg if you have sceptile waiting in the wings. simple as.
>>59458706It definitely is, but I've seen more Pheromosa+Ogerpon with extra stuff than Butterfree+Oger as it frees up much needed deck spaceH-Zoro on the other hand... without proper Grass ramp there's a reason people have gravitated towards Frosslass/Gourgeist for death-stacking
>>59458612Yea, the largest issue with it is taking up 6 deck slots as if it was your main attacker. But luckily for grass types, there are cards like Quick Grow and that stadium that acts as infinite grass Pokeball so it makes things a little easier to deal with. But on the flip side, when you consider those cards are ALSO lock-ins for grass decks, you realize there's little wiggle room for other mon to fit. I do still think it'll be relevant in future expansions but it definitely restricts the creativity you have with it because of how much slot investment it takes up to run.
What are the odds?
>>59459019wish that was me but in the Shining Revelry pack
>>59459019Low. Congrats anon.>>59458812Despite that it feels very good to play and it's surprisingly versatile. Personally I run a very basic Butterfree/Ogerpon/M.Sceptile, but I have see others go for Butter/H.Zoroark, Butter/Pheromosa/Ogerpon, Butter/Furfrou/Sceptile for one point only fuckery.Not having to deal with Pokeballs, and to some extend Profesors, helps a lot.
>>59459019>1 in 625 for a crown in slot 5>1 in 2500 for a crown in slot 4napkin math says that's at least 1 in a million bro
>finally get a hit in the 24H WPs of the set>then my free pack had shiny indeedee and the dedenne interactiveWew.
>>59458575You can't get it until you see your first sleepfag quit immediately
Imagine weedle with Caterpie's ability. It could make Beedril relevant again, hell imagine if we got mega beedril

Is it true that you don't drop out of Ultra Ball once you get in (not counting resets)?
>>59460142yeah you can't drop tiersi stay in ultra 3 so that i start every season in ultra 1 and my terminal start of season bad luck (very subtle engagement optimized matchmaking) doesn't drop me any further
>>59460144well fuck I just got into UB1, so looks like i'll be starting back at GB3 next time
how can mega fug be saved?
>>59460155it seems fine desu
>>59460155it will release with Ancient accidentally tagged on the card and they won't ffix it until the next set
remember when the ranked ladder flooded with mandibuzz because someone posted a blurry decklist on reddit and said "the #1 player finally shared what he uses" lol
This set was deceptive, milotic and other cards seemed like new meta staples at first but quickly fell out of favor. Decent cards but all im seeing is the same old miraidon, frog sceptile, lucario and sleep decks. Im not falling for the dragonair bait. You’re telling me to simply get energy on my dragon type i need a stage 1 evo line on the bench, and a stadium?
>>59460327i doubt anyone expects the new dragonair or stadium to make dragons stand anywhere near meta, they just become more playableyou can still be cursed to get the same energy 5 turns in a row and these new cards do nothing to change that
>>59460330yeah stadium is pretty gud for flygon
>>59460330Dragon types deserve to be usable.
>>59460336>my deck list still has my old Garchomp, Kommo-o, Lugia, Terapagos and Flygon decksthe new stadium's going in all of them, but I wonder if I should use just 1 copy

What do you think of /ourguy/? It can tank 2 Mega Altaria hits with heavy helmet
>>59460567Pretty underwhelming... Hopefully Beldum or Metang do something interesting or it's yet another 3-energy ex with no real gimmick
>only get 24hr picks like once every three days now>missed every single one of them>now basically no reason at all to rush to finish packsEpic, DENA. Thank you for giving people even less reason to actually spend money or grind shitty modes.
>>59460567lmao 3 energy, lmao
>>594605674 energy just to match blaziken/sceptile output is kinda brutalin theory it wins endgames that they would lose though since 150-170hp is a benchmark that comes up but without seeing beldum & metang (and presumably Steven) i'm not sure if it's ever fast enough, your opponent has to just let you park behind a dialga for 4 turns
>>59460620If the stars align and you lead Orthworm and go second, you could get at least 4 energy on it by the time it needs to come into play. But that's also a 4-card combo, requires you to win a coinflip, and requires the opponent to have no bench disruption.
AI player>never bricks>always flips heads when it needs itMe>almost always bricks>never flips heads when i need itFake rigged ""game""
Kinda fucked up that this is enough for top 10k. I remember it being alot harder than this.
>>59460827Most people have given up on ladder.
>>59460827This is with win streaks, too. Good sign that this game is dead.
>>59460996Back in the day it was around 1600.
>>59460567if this thing had a half decent attack it'd be broken as shitthey kneecapped it because stage 2 steel types can be ridiculously tanky between metal core barrier and lillieif you had two of each this card would have effectively 450 hp
Mega gallade and metagross wont be playable. Wally is a bad card, no decks have room for it. There are stage 1 cards that deal 130 with no harsh requirements
>>59461115yeah, gallade is just a worse lucario and evolving from a psychic type sucks balls since they don't work with arena.jury's still out on metagross though, a strong beldum or metang could make it playable.
how does pocket make money? Aside from getting lucky from wonder pick, i just trade
>somehow manage to get a 10-win streak in ranked>After 5 wins, every match was brick after brick after brick>even got a moment where I had 5 cards in hand w/ copycat, two last cards in the deck were the two rare candies, used copycat and drew 4 cards, and it kept the two rare candies in the deck.>still pulled through because chingling carryYou know, I'm starting to understand why some deck perform so well in tournaments but suck ass in ranked, tournaments are custom matches, there's no reason for the game to cheat and rig the match to balance your winrate and make you spend money in a custom non-ranked match.
>>59461163Are you not familiar with gachas or somethingEven if 90% of the playerbase are f2ps the 10% giga-leviathan completion autists will sustain the gameMost of the card art is recycled too, so its not like DeNa is bleeding themselves trying to make new content
>>59461163Pocket is a very cheap game to make and maintain so all they need is like a thousand whales for it to print money hand over fist.
why was my 24h wonder pick a 1 star...i only have lusamine, the puppy bitch and rainbow rare mega sableyewhat the fuck5 days for one show to and when it does, it's a 1 starholy shit loli didn't even notice because i ignore all wps that don't start with 4 on the cost
>>59461339>lusaminejust woke up, ELESAblonde women brainrot
>>59461339Because it picks from all the 1-star and 2-stars you don't have. You never obtained a 1-star Jigglypuff so it picked that one.
>>59460567>Release the gen 3 set after nearly 2 years>Megas already released>Completely cucks all final evolution pokemon out of their ex cardsNo metagross ex because they waited so fucking long to make a gen3 set. Now we only get Mega Metagross ex, which is half baked. One fucking attack. Likely no way to ramp. Dead in the water.
>>59460567>230HP>Metal Barrier>Lillie>Metal Barrier>Lillie>Heavy Helmet>Adaman>AdamanHow tanky is this fucker?
>>59461461Not very since it requires everything to go right to be that tanky.
I am sure to get fucked over with my draws when the new set drops with how lucky I've been wonderpicking this set.From packs I got 2 Planeta Sableyes and from wonderpicking I got all the trainers and three other planeta slop cards.
>>59461455>Completely cucks all final evolution pokemon out of their ex cardsare you saying we're not going to get any random ex cards in this set like every other set has had? bold claim
>>59461501Since the introduction of Megas, have we gotten a regular ex of a final evolution pokemon where that same pokemon also has a mega evolution?
>>59461455if they made metagross ex before it would've been unplayable dogshit like literally every other steel type ex, why are you whining that it didn't happen? steel is the cucked retard type for a reason, even dragon has a better track record.
>>59461348what the fuck when did they change it from 2 star only to infecting it with 1 star slop? christ i hate this game
>>59461555it's literally always been like that you brainless fucking mongoloid
>>59461560i never got a 1 star 24h wp ever since the feature debuted so... lol
>>59461455they basically stopped giving mons two attacks altogether
>>59461635You need to have every diamond card of the most recent set
>>59461666how many cards actually benefited from having multiple attacks in a meaningful way? it always felt superfluous to me since they never designed them to be interesting, it was always just "weak filler attack" and then "the thing you actually use the card for"
>>59461716... And?The alternative is that we have a ton of unplayable shit with 3 or 4 energy attacks. The real TCG doesn't have that issue
>>59461716The weak filler attack at least let you do something in the meantime if you didn't have full energy. That was the worst case. Best case it did something cool like Meowscarada ex or Blacephalon which burned.
>>59461732cards with 3 or 4 energy attacks were always going to be unplayable, and having a shitty filler attack was never going to save them. would mega gyarados be playable if it had a 2 energy 60 damage attack? would gigalith suddenly be a top meta contender if it could do 30 for 1 like palkia?the real tcg doesn't have that issue because they can design cards with interesting effects while pocket is constrained to the point that the only metric for a card's viability is how much damage it can do.
>>59461461All that deck space are do you expect to get set up?
>>59461548Solgaleo, MSteelix, Gholdengo and MScizor were all but unplayable dogshit.
>>59461781>solgaleoliterally never good, it always had a subpar winrate>steelixmeme deck nobody plays outside of tournaments because it's by far the least fun deck in existence>gholdengohas never been even remotely playable>scizordogshit card that had exactly one day in the sun because it had a half decent matchup into the current new toy syndrome and then immediately fell off again when people went back to the decks that actually win gamesand these are the HIGHLIGHTS of steel, don't forget this is the type that brought you such gems as probopass ex and mega mawile
>>59461772You're looking at it completely the wrong way Look at how much mega Lucario is dominating right now, it basically has two attacks. That's the true value in it. You're underselling the utility of it greatly
>>59461848that's the thing though, it doesn't have two attacks. it has one attack that scales with energy because printing two attacks is a waste of time when you can do an effect like that. anon is complaining that they don't do shit like primarina anymore where the multiple attacks are completely pointless.the only reason to have multiple attacks is if they have significantly different effects. the only card in the game's history that actually has two different attacks you want to use at different times and isn't just "this attack does less damage, this attack does more damage" is meowscarada ex.
So is the big update download tomorrow and the new pack on Wednesday, or both on Wednesday?
Feel like the new Sylveon card kinda flew under the radar? Gives every Eevee deck an Oricorio killer (oneshots with stadium up) who also works as a good support. Been toying a few games using Vaporeon and Espeon. Espeon having the funniest results. Healing for 120 HP on a single turn feels like it shouldn't be allowed. Though to be fair, I only got to experience that once with lucky Copycat draws letting me deck out early. But Vaporeon feeling a bit more solid even if less healing (Retard helmet pretty much acts as a 20 HP heal anyway and it naturally has more HP). Also I guess Fire is more common than Fighting nowadays and Dark is ever so present. Hoping the new stadium makes Flareon tear assholes. Actually...let me test Flareon now...
>>59461891Charizard's 60 damage attack is great for finishing something off without discarding energy. Specifically if something on the frontline is in the way of an EX that will win you match next turn.
>>59462171it's a lot of investment at 3 cards, and it's also just not that good of an oricorio killer either. beginning bolt jolteon kills the bird for 1 energy and eevee bag, and sts leafeon does 90 damage for 1 energy and a ramp from leafeon ex, so already every eevee variant has better options besides psychic healspam which is a practically unplayable archetype with several automatic loss matchups.
So what will the inevitable Zinnia card do? Actual meta or "your Salamance and Whismur ex do +30 damage when mercury is in retrograde"?
>>59462218If Mega Rayquaza EX is in the active spot, this card is displayed naked. That's the only effect.
>>59462224Actually OP when facing children and flashing them while they're playing next to their parents. Immediate DC even if they're winning.
>>59462218you're getting "dragon types that use fire energy do +30 damage to your opponent's active mega evolution pokemon ex this turn" and you'll like it, buster.
>>59462218heals mega fug but discards his energy
I have every basic card in Everyday Wonders, 64/64. I havent don't a WP in like three days, and its been weeks since ive seen a WP with a 4* pick. this 24 hr Wonder Pick shit is a LIE and a fucking ruse. its fucking bullshit
>>59462546>i am retarded and didn't get all the 1* cards and the game gives me 1* cards in my 24h WP and now i am madlol?
>>59462546>not having a day 1 alt with obscene shinedust
>>59462654>alt (singular)ngmi
Finally got all 3.What do I do now
Thoughts on tomorrows update? Hopes for features? Think it will be shit, think it will be good? Can it save the game?
>>59460567If they give Metang the steel equivalent of Magneton's ability it's going to be broken, otherwise meh
>>59462923Combine it with Ivysaur's "attack" for maximum energy ramping.
>>59462904Your Alcremie?
>>59462947It's significantly easier than 99 gimmighoul desuAlso got Mabosstiff
>>59462916Rainbow Cave will buff fire types so Milotic sleep is gonna be even more prevalent.Terrible format
>>59462958I can't wait for Blaziken to completely replace Sceptile.
>puppy pile houndour print>1-1-3 memory light brew >bonus of four targets for flame patchyes i am bored with fuck all to talk about
>>59462993Puppy Pile doesn't consider evolved Pokemon when using it.
Settle a debate between me and a coworkerIf you don’t use your pulls today you’ll have more pulls for the mega Rayquaza set tomorrow rightShe’s saying since you get 4 per 24 hours anyway this isn’t the case
>>59462995Yeah but the attacker still reads the stack. Some meme brews try running arcanine ex to lesser success.
>>59463046>4 per 24 hours anywayYou get 2 per 24h, unless you're a paypig in which case it doesn't matter and you should KYS. So either she's retarded and doesn'flt know how to do math, or she's retarded and throws money at this game.
>>59463046You get one every 12 hours, it comes out on the 30th. You get a bonus with the premium delibird pack, I guess. What even is she trying to argue? They regenerate in real time, so ideally you want your full freebie draws queue stockpiled at the time of release yes.
>>59460567I hope I can do something with him, Aegislash, and Dialga.
>>59462993Houndour is not a Puppy...
Jirachi ex with Metal Energy ramp soon!!
>>59463046You're both wrong for different reasons because the next release is more than 24h away, so it's possible (and likely) she used her 2 packs this morning while at work and will still have 2 packs for tomorrow's release. I used up my 2 packs already, and I plan to open 2 tomorrow. You don't get "more pulls," you just get 2 pulls...every 24 hours...So depending on when you pulled today, you still have the same pulls tomorrow. Either way, she's not going to fuck you. She's busy lil bro.
NEW SET WHEN???
>>59463089if Rockruff is more of a puppy to you then im not having it
>>59463170tonight
>>59462904How do I get the mew?
Fucking piece of shit faggot trash nigger Darkness "Control" decks actually kill yourself
>>59463279Collect all the shiny from Mega Shine.
>>59463294Mega Shine more like Mega Shite hehehe YEAH
>>59463170
>>59463289lol
>>59463739uh, so the "big update" is tonight but the set is tomorrow?
>>59463739Why couldn't they release this shit after the fucking reset.
>>59463872Because Pocket is ran by people who just don't give a fuck.
Fuck, I forgot to keep the packs for tonight and opened them out of habit.Oh well.
>>59463869Yes, that's typical. The patch is big so they aren't going to drop it right before the new pack release. The update downloads tonight (which allegedly as optimizations) but the actual packs won't get turned on until tomorrow.
>>59463905I mean, you're still fine. It's not for 27 hours...You'll regenerate them in time, just don't use tomorrow's.
Leaks tonight?
>>59464093Probably
>>5946409347 minutes
I just leaked in your mothers mouthLOLGOTTEM
do you guys complete the step-up battles?
>>59464135I used to but the game has just started running so bad via updates now it locks up my phone whenever i try a battle.They just keep optimizing it worse and worse, if this big update somehow pushes it even worse I really think I'll have to drop it.
WHERE'S THE LEAKS YOU PEDOS
>>59464141>locks up my phone whenever i try a battleTry getting a phone from this decade?
>>59464153Its only 4 years old.It used to run battles fine. Then when they added random battles it started lagging really bad and then after another update it started locking up.They made it worse, simple as.
If they really want to capture Puppy Girl enthusiasts, they just need to bring Tate and Liza.
>>59464195>Tate and Lizawould they be one card or two separate cards? one card makes sense but two means more money
ARE THEY FUCKING SERIOUS WITH THIS MEGA SHARPEEDO? 130 DAMAGE FOR 1 FUCKING ENERGY? I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF IT'S THE SQUISHIEST MEGA WITH 140 HP, IT WILL END THE MATCH BEFORE ANYTHING CAN FUCKING COME ONLINE TO KILL IT
leaksisters, i'm not feelin too good
Where leaks?
>>59464200On TCG they usually come in one.
Is the update live? Im not seeing it
>>59464226Yeah, so far nothing changed
>>59464226I'm downloading it now, had to go in the app storeApparently leakers say their tools aren't working? lmao
>>59464200one set introduces tate and then they just reprint it as liza at some point
why the fuck is ranked still open? I dropped from like 6.5k to 8k. I don't wanna fucking grind anymore before. STOP THE COUNT.
>rule change Uh oh
>>59464211>>59464215game is that dead
>>59464234Going to laugh so fucking hard if the update didn't actually optimize shit but instead just bricked dumping tools (temporarily, cause we know new ones would be developed in a patch or two).
>>59464239whats your elo and how long did it take to drop that farbeen considering grinding top 10k at least once
>>59464208IKR
Holy fuck, I managed to get to master by playing Pallosand/MLucario and I only played on last Saturday (from UB3->UB4) and now for ~2hours while watching yt with 8 win streak reacing to 813 points.
>>59464244Seems like that's exactly what happened, apparently EVERY leaker's tool bricked/broke
>>59464242What the fuck, they FINALLY decided it's time to fucking update the cards and stop pretending it's a printed paper game?
>>59464242wait what the fuck are they actually issuing errata
>>59464244I honestly expect the optimization to get even worse.
Bruh.
>>59464242>still no extra deck slotsLiterally why not?
>>59464245Dropped in like 3 days, but I'm not playing anymore. I'm like 1.3k points. Just natural decline from more people playing ahead of me when I already stopped. But I got to 6k cause I figured that was a good enough stopping point, accounting for that, and seems like I may just barely get kicked out if ranked stays open longer.
>>59464248Never had as big as 75% winrate
>>59464255Only one less than PA and FP
>>59464255Yeah, I'm not even going to bother trying for 24h picks.
>>59464255Tell him to share his tools so we can all get the tasty leaks
Crown Dragonair and Raichu
Mega Sharpedo is going to make me quit this game
>>59464242How will "4-diamond or higher guaranteed booster pack category" work?
FUCKING FINALLY
>>59464242>rule changes for some cardsIce pop? Darkrai?Iggly?Wallace?
>>59464242We need to know what the fuck the rule changes are. How does that even work out when ranked is still on? Imagine you're right about to get to Masterball and your Greninja doesn't ping because they updated it to require water energy.
>>59464275They won't tell us. Probably a pity system if you go X amount of packs with nothing.
>>59464275>>59464282AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHGot us good
"Rule changes to some cards" is one of the worst fucking patch note lines I've read in my fucking life. Nigga there are thousands of cards, you can't tell us which ones changed? What if our decks rely on a card you changed and we just don't fucking realize until we're mid match?
>>59464286I had shit pulls during EW like no ex card for whole week. I got multiple useless 3diamonds from that set..
When new cards will be datamined?
>>59464297Never. All hacker tools are kill. Game still runs as shitty as it did before. Thanks for playing.
>>59464274So what is it???
leaks when? i need to know what beldum and metang are to see if mega gross is dead in the water or not
>>59464310
>>59464313ok surely metang can save the day
Jolteon is so fucking GAY
Mega Gallade is the other immersive (MFug is the obvious other one)
leaks doko
I noticed 1 change after update - Random battle now have "AI" in bottom left corner of each level
>>59464342>"Boss says we need to include AI in the game somehow..."
The game actually unironically still runs like shit, not even joking.
Promo premium card for July is Celebi
Are emulators kill? I can't get past the title screen.
>>59464356Update just went live
>>59464362Yeah, and after downloading the updated apk it will crash after hitting the title screen.
>>59464364>>59464362Patch literally didn't optimize anything, just broke third party tools. This is actually really sad.
Dunno if anyone posted patch notes yet but here
>>59464375No shit it wasn't going to optimize anything. This wasn't an optimization patch, it was just moving the game to a newer version of Unity.
>>59464379>Rule changes for some cardsIt's for Wallace, it won't work on turn 1
>>59464379>that rule changeIs this literally only addressing the thing where you can't use Gladion if both are on the field, but can if one is in the hand?
What the FUCK does that even mean???
Lmao, a lot of people are fuming because the ranked rule and everyone being able to be masterball
>>59464388What rule?
>>59464392Now lossing points for losing is only in master rank
>>59464392You now can only lose points in masterball rank, everything below don't reduce points
>>59464396>>59464395lol?....It was already too easy before...
Wishlist now is 40 cards
>>59464395>>59464396lmao
Singleplayer battles are being rotated out for the second anniversary.
>>59464380Pretty sure the patch notes alluded to better performance as a result.
>>59464409I wasn't doing any singleplayer I hope they increase level cap faster, now they have to be finished to not waste hourglasses
no leeks wtf?
>>59464409done solely to fuck over chinese reroller accounts (and also new players, but lmao what new players)
>>59464427Anon, think about it, we got a pretty big update. That probably messed up the tool the dataminer use so they need to polish it again, it will take some extra hours to make the datamining work again in this new model.
>>59464428They already fucked those over by breaking emulator compatibility
So the patch didn't improve performance and was actually just done to dunk on leak fags, emulator fags, and alt fags? Unfathomably based move by dena
>>59464434see>>59464380
>>59464434>paygoy gloating over f2p game*1 hourglass has been sent in your gift box*
>>59464434Killing all of my alts will be the best thing that could happen. It'll give me all the encouragement I need to finally quit this nasty habit.
You aren't getting discounts on gold no matter how hard you ride dena's pena
>>59464445Meant to reply to>>59464434
Oh shit
I might be tripping but it feels like the card images are clearer, and loading cards is a bit faster. Aside of that the app runs the same.
>>59464449AI genned
>>59464460>rocket grunt powercrept so hard it is now just an EX's effectKinda insane for a game not even 2 years old
>>59464356>>59464364I got the "please update to a newer operating system" at first, but a few minutes later i could get into my bluestacks alt. Server overload maybe? Or a box they forgot to check or something.
>>59464460Ok this is actually pretty good gambla card. Mega Pidgeot should have been this. Worse case scenario you get 0 tails and still do 110 damage and you're a tanky ass 180 badger bear thing who may or may not take children into your cave as your wife.
>>59464463Guzzlord had it first
>>59464460>>59464449where.jpg

Waterbros, we're drinking good
>>59464485What the fuuuuuuuuuuck nigga
There's always some USGMEN rainbow card ready to shit on your rolls.
>>59464475Disregard, I was mistaken. Entered the app on the old version 1.6. I was confused because it showed the updated news articles, which made me think it had updated.
>>59464485>>59464488
>>594644901.7 is broken for you too?
>>59464483Kinda disappointed that they picked a random cityscape as the backdrop of Rayquaza. I don't exactly associate the fug with urban living...Couldn't they have had it over the border of land and sea or something? Or scaling a tower?
>>59464479>>59464494Interesting to have trainer cards now referencing specific attack names.
Flower Nuke
They gave Rev its TCG gimmick
My GOAT
>>59464503Calling it now, Carvannah is gonna be 40-50HP for maximum Wallace faggotry
>>59464492Did not try a 1.7 apk. Just trying to update from 1.6 via Bluestacks. Keeps asking for a newer android version.
>M-Sharpedo has no retreat costWhat the FUCKING fuck?!
>>59464510Yeah, I don't get any error message. The game just closes when I try and progress past the title screen.
>>5946450950 hp yeah30 attack, single energy btw
Immersive cards not having rainbow variants is a crime.
>>59464501Just use the counter
>>59464522>>59464522>>59464522
>>59464521Woah, a sleep "counter"
>>59464466Yes but there it was just to stall so he could charge up. Here it's with chunky damage so it can potentially shut down a mega or another EX from revenge hitting it.
>>59465415The most recent patch crashes on Bluestacks when trying to sign in. Clone apps on Android are also broken currently. The Bluestacks devs say they're working on it, Dena probably introduced some new anticheat in the update.It's not an additive 3GB, it's mostly replacing what is already there.
