My game won't start!! The fuck Dena???
>felt like reaching Master Ball again after finding out you don’t lose points from losing this season>went 7-1 and got Master Ball in under half an hour from Ultra Ball 3Damn, they’re really desperate for that player retention huh
>>59680680yea, ranked really has no purpose anymoreespecially since it's the same fucking emblem with different colors so who the fuck cares really. you can't even show off your excess emblems anyway, and all the masterball ones just blur together. ranks has no rewards outside of hourglasses and everyone can make masterball without even trying, so it's really like we just get 2 emblem events a month that are just reskinned.
>>59680612has been the same for me too since the rocket update. not sure how they managed to break the game's optimization even further than release, maybe they're vibecoding the shit out of it and pushing it into production with zero fucks. i'll be randomly stuck at the "tap to start" screen with infinite loading circle and hard restarting the app by forcefully exiting it doesn't solve it either. i have to either reboot my entire phone or arbitrarily wait like half an hour or so and try again. it's more frustrating if i get booted because of the daily reset forcing you out of the game. thanks for booting me and then refusing to start, really doing wonders for making me want to bother with the damn thing.
>>59680612>>59680785More to come, stay tuned!
>>59680680FAGGOT
>random level 60 sends friend invite>Accept it>Offer trade>Neat, i have that "two trades" mission to do after all>They are offering FA Blaine.Motherfucker, I don't want MALES, specially old and bald MALES.
almost forgot to do the win 5 in random advanced/expert and got it first try
Calling it now, the "Sweet Honey" is gonna be an Item Card that grants the Active Grass mon 1 Grass Energy since DeNA will do everything in their power to avoid making any practical form of Grass-rampBEECHADS RISE UP!!!
>5 shiny diancie ex>0 shiny dedenne exWell, I have a great head start into the C-series special ticket shop
AIEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
whats the fun haver deck for ranked since you dont lose points anymore? i was thinking about that golden negro sudowodo deck thats all about rng
>>59681061More like SWEET CUNNY, amirite?
>>59681198Having fun with this for shits and giggles. Longneck boy tanks so hard that everyone is tempted to bring their mega out to punch his shit in. It's fun when longboy 2 comes in and instantly gets 5 energies from double dragon + professor deadtits. Occasionally Dragonite can come in as your 2nd point with the help of Wally, and professor brings the colorless energy from the discard pile as well so can actually place 3 energies a single turn, though Dragonite rarely makes an appearance desu.
>>59681268Also Dragonite EX is an appropriate sub, though double Oricorio is insta-loss in that scenario. Both are funny surprises when your opponent thinks they killed all your attackers and you evolve on the last point.
auto mode for ranked when
I heard they are going to let us trade 3 star cards now. Is that true?
geting fucked and sucked by the fuckin ai mega garchomp
>>59681268>>59681274Alternatively, if you want to win games instead of just trolling then dragon babysitter works well. Just be weary of Sabrinas taking a benched baby for the final point. If you force the opponent to only take 2 baby points before dealing with chomp, you checkmate them very often. Surprised it's not a more popular deck desu.
>>59681312I love this Garchomp. Literally nothing most decks can do once it scores a single kill.
>>59681312good deck
>>59681312any qr codes
>>59681458
Where are the leaks?
>>59681475>first game >play gible>enemy plays torchich with the venom thing>i literaly kys myself if i atack>then he mega evolves in to blazikeni think the game is rigged and i play vs cheating ai tbqhwy
>>59681493Wait, were they also running Rainbow Cave and Flame Patched that turn? Or maybe they used their cave? That's pretty fucked odds lol. Bad enough getting Gible without other babies or Pokeballs by turn 2. but having the full Blaze combo + Energy Discard + Flame Patch by turn 3 on top of that is pretty shitty odds. But the game is rigged, so I'm not surprised.
is there some bot somewhere to play for me
so i played ranked and it was fuckin horrible cancerwhats the point when at greatball i play against decks and people with the skill equivalent of master ball
>>59681527Oh, that's a tough one. If you're having trouble in Greatball then your best options may be to just play Sleepslop since there's 0 skill involved with it and your win condition is "did my opponent keep flipping tails?"Or play Mega Venusaur or Mawile. I'd imagine those play well all the way until high Ultraball and they have 0 brainpower to pilot.
>>59681543i think im gonna do the mega altaria
>>59681552A wise decision, young one. Embrace the pillow. Ensure your opponent does not get to actually play the game, and victory is yours. Join slopside.
>>59681259The Epstein class needs to be purged
>play lucky egg on the baby pokemon>the rigged ai enemy is obviously poison for not to trigger
what do you guys think
>>59681801seems like ass nglif you're using a non-attacking EX to draw cards for solgaleo you might as well just use suicune or entei instead of wasting 6 deck slots on sylveon and sightseer
>make a aerodactyl deck>suddenly face only suicie and chingchong piaonigger this shits a joke how rigged it is
>>59681801this deck wasn't good 13 months ago
nice pull on my alt today
>>59681801>SolGAYleoFAGGOT
>>59681949why would you have alts
I'm trying not to rage at Carefree Steps Meowth always flipping heads on this fucking AI
>>59681963why not? it's good shinedust, sharing ex cards back and forth every day
thougyrs
i cant believe in this shit game isint still something that lets me choose the energy i want
>>59682000i dunno why you would run aero+mew over decidueye ex here, those two don't really add anything helpful to the gren/ori combo
>>59682035
If you were ever curious about the actual odds of getting and EX card from the promo solo event battles - It's 13%, not 20% (1/5). According to my sample size of 271.
>>59682164We know.
>>59682167Where are the odds listed like that?
>>59682181https://www.pokemon-zone.com/packs/Inside each pack there's a "Show Card Odds" checkbox.
>>59682186Huh, good information to know. Thank you.
>>59682186>the crown Pikachu isn't in the Pika Pika packsgrrr
>>59682194Do you think crown rares just grow on trees?There's no way Nintendo could give those away for free.
Give me FA Korrina shitty ass gameReeeeedeeeeeeer
>>59682248>he didn't maded an alt when he had the chanceloel
Just traded my dupe Sabrina for the new Copycat, but it felt like it wasn't worth it.
>>59682438i only use one copycat but if i got a second FA i'd probably start using 2 for the flex
>>59682438depends, really. if it was your first or second copycat, it's fine. if you already had two copycats and are just replacing one with the DX then lmao.
Worst addition to the game thus far?My vote goes for shinies. Even after the rework they still kill wonderpicks, can shit up godpacks, aren't different enough from base cards art-wise, and are expensive to trade for on top of the already garbage trade system that doesn't even allow you to trade them for normal cards. I don't think I've ever been excited to get a shiny instead of a regular 2*. Plus the most popular cards by far are FA trainers which obviously have no shinies and that just tanks their value even more.The only implementation I can think of that wouldn't suck balls is that any card you pull has the chance to transform into a shiny with a little animation, and it otherwise behaves exactly like a normal card and shows as normal in wps and such.
>>59682739Silvally was too fast and too much of a petdeck killer and with Dena’s no nerfing policy they made the following pack set cards blow out the old cards too much
>>59682739They should've stuck to the initial model of shinies releasing in the same pack as their original version. If I'm pulling a shiny it may as well be the equivalent of a new 2* not one from 3 sets ago that's long been powercrept
>decided to do a 10 pack on mega deluxe.>Only 2 stars is a Mega Altaria, a DUPE Mega Altaria.>Rage hard.>Figure I least can trade it.>Nobody is offering a Elsa for it so I open my own trade asking for her.>Less than 5 minutes later someone appears and offers Elesa for it.Well fuck me, that 10 pack opening wasn't a wasted after all. Also now I have all the Mega EX Waifus while avoiding the "my parents are dead!" Faggot, feels good.
>missing immersive gyaradosHelp
Does anyone have english foil zarude?
>>59682739>pull one>it's some worthless ex from 5 sets ago that never saw any play>pull one>it's ugly as FUCK because the shiny color is shit or it clashes super hard with the shiny backgroundso lame. literally the only time i cared about a shiny pull was getting suicune.
>>59682739Not giving proper illustrations to shiny pokémon was a mistake.
>>59682739Lucky Ice Pop. What an abysmal card to add to the fucking game. It's not like it was a strategically intensive and competitive game before, but what a fucking joke adding that shit was. What's the point of pulling off an awesome 5 card combo play and outsmarting the opponent when they flip heads from 20 HP back up to 160 HP in a single fucking turn after. And your attack does 140 damage, sorry! :^)
>>59683480And one of the worst parts about the card is that it artificially drags the fucking match out. Even if your opponent fails, you have to sit there and watch every INDIVIDUAL fucking coin flip animation, watch them fucking heal, watch the card going back into their hand, etc. over and over again until they fail...and then pull out the SECOND Lucky Ice pop to do the same fucking shit. It's aggravating. The entire match just freezes and gets put into a state where the "gameplay" is just watching coin flips for a whole fucking minute.
>>59683343Yes, this was a huge missed opportunity but it also speaks volumes for how low the budget and bar for quality this game has. That'd be too much money. Just recolor already made artwork and add sparklies. We barely get new artwork. They can't afford to hire artists.
>>59680602The art looks AI.
>>59683490Funny thing is they already gave us exactly that with the 2 immersive Mews2* shinies having altered versions of their rainbow 2* art would've made them immensely more desired than the pastel planeta we got instead
>>59683490half the time the shiny prints aren't even for the obvious viable variants, it really does feel like a robot is in charge of these things
>>59683736Yea, they may as well just cut to the chase and AI gen cards for us.
>>59683558>The art looks AI.How so?
>>59683805look @ how many fingers and toes mew2 has lmfao ai cant do hands and feet fuckin lol dena is finised
datamine when?
>>59682739Suicune and then Copycat. With the retarded amount of draw you have now, there's zero comebacks at all because if they don't brick, they draw 12 cards in their first two turns and dump everything. There's zero question of "do they have an answer in their hand?" The answer is always yes.
>>596838093 fingers and 3 toes on each hand/footam i missing something?
>>59682076You have now assembled *The Deck*, all you need now is to replace those low value trainer cards in your bottom row with a soothing shore hiking trail and small balloon.
>>59683558I wouldn't be surprised
>>59682164>>59682167fuck I missed this event
>>59684603Not the worst event to miss, just reprints and another useless ex as you can see. Was absolutely littered with asshole coinflip invincibility rng and oneshots,
>>59684878Yea, I just used Sawk to punch Meowth in the dick and Lee to kick Chomp in the balls. Still sometimes ended up with instant Garchomp out of nowhere that kills Sawk and gains invincibility frames, but it worked for most of the matches.
>>59684603They should be rerunning the pack pretty soon anyway when they rerun all the B series promos
>>59680602Did anyone try the game on an iPhone Duo?
>>59685404Yea. It immediately crashed, and a line appeared in the fold of my phone that seems to be growing thicker every hour. I called Apple and the first thing they asked is if I played Pokemon TCG Pocket, and when I answered truthfully they denied my Apple Care claim stating it was intentional damage and not accidental or a manufacturing defect. So now I'm fucked out of money and my game won't even get past the fucking "tap to start" screen. Also it makes the coin flip sound effect every time I open and close the device...
>>59684878Mega Chomp is the closest a promo has ever come to useful.
I guess I am playing the shit eating faggot dog deck now
>>59685596Kneel to the best boy
What's DX Iris' relative value?
>>59685596this card trades surprisingly well
This faggot genuinely tried to stall me out by just switching around.Don't build your deck to auto lose to the fucking chicken next time idiot.
does this game run better on android or does it have some sideloaded mod or some shit that speeds up the god awful menuing?
>>59685741No, there's nothing you can do to make the game run better. They spaghetti coded this shit.
based Lucario carrying my bitch black ass
where's the fuckin setting to display uncollected
New account. Played a year ago. Played for almost a year. Got the freebie Lucario deck. What the fuck is this card? I just saw a Jap streaming, and the Jap is playing Lucario with this...freakish illustration....>>59680680Got Master Ball within only four hours or so. Playing the freebie Lucario deck. Also from a new account.>>59681111If the card assortment are truly randomized...then you should have gotten the Mega Rayquaza EX. You always just pick the first one each time. You save lots of time by just picking the first card each time.>>59681304Never. Best they add to ranked is an action queu. The next actions you want can be sequenced, even earlier than the effects on the screen are completely finished. The actions just proceed from beginning to last automatically, but only by your ordering.
>>59684250>tfw missing 34 reverse holosI fucking tried. Even with all my pack points I’m still 3-8 short depending on what I do or don’t buy, and I want copycat too…
>>59685906You enable the switch at the top, then open the search, scroll down to the "Cards with a rarity of star or higher", and enable it.
>>59685678dunno but i got mine for a planeta mega septile
>>59685988Missing 30. Used something like 900 trade glasses to try get all of them. Turns out it wasn't enough lol
>>59685942Yea, I'm not sure what "Midori Harada" was thinking when drawing this. Must have been very sexually frustrated. May as well just cut to the chase and have "tears" dripping from the hole as well.
I would have to be retarded to send out thanks in this faggot game and everyone who sends them must be a bot from the game itself to trick children in to kindness or some sentimental shit like this
>I would have to be retarded to send out thanks in this faggot game and everyone who sends them must be a bot from the game itself to trick children in to kindness or some sentimental shit like this
>pick teams rockets thieving machine>due to unknown reasons the enemies don't play PokeBall turn 1 anymore
I'm convinced I play vs cheating ai 1/4 of the time
>>59686263small deck size + stupid draw power means everyone you're facing already has what they need in their hand at any given moment
>>59686263>cheating ai 1/4 of the timewhat makes you say that?
alright I got to masterball but I didn't enjoy it. am I in the wrong or the game?
>Unite EoS firsttcgpbros we won
>>59686384Pokemon cards are still a hot commodity right now and the app is the best way to lwarn to play
>>59686384We couldn't lose, but just because we couldn't lose doesn't mean we win.How could Nintendo fuck up a Pokemon gacha TCG? They're literally the number one trading card game on Earth. We'll someday win if Nintendo will print the actual cards for all accounts which payed actual money by end of service. Cards printed to the maximum amount of money spent.
>>59686384TCG Pocket has at least 1 maybe two years tops
still waiting…
Hello, hello. Raichu Anon here. Would anyone be willing to trade pic related? I need 5 more for my Raichu shrine.
Booyah!
>>59686534got one of these spare... anyone looking for one?
>>59686484Doubt better than crown Pokeball, or packs opened too slowly?
All these pulls and not a single Copycat, and the M-Lucario was today just to add another kick in the dick (Mega Fug and two Sceptiles is neat at least), but fuck the rest. And a M-Gengar on the alt for salt
>>59686698I had copycat in 24h wp today and failed.
>>59686698Deluxe Pack Mega has been fucking desolate for me, even despite using the hourglasses I had saved up. Luck was just not on my side this month, I guess.
>>59686479TCGP can run forever, this game costs nothing to maintain or make new shit for.
>>59686384>>59686479Are you guys insane? All they do is make fucking pngs and the app is spaghetti coded slop there's barely any development cost
>>59681198>since you dont lose points anymore?Pokemon unite started funneling players to the highest ranked because there aren't enough players in it's 3rd year or so. Pocket started doing this and we're not even in our 2nd year yet. I fear we won't make it to 2030 bros.
>>59686479I fear we are maybe next on the chopping block.
I saw an ad for the game on a freeway billboard. They must be desperate.
I can't wait to get the shiny from the Pikachu pack tomorrow.
>>59686487Foils don't get gold borders
After 163 packs

>>59687325Fourth immersive Pikachu.... neato...
Completed the Step Up Battles' subtasks.Yaay!!
There should be a report and ban function for faggots like this. You have mega mawile into oricorio, it's an instant fucking matchup loss you fuck, just concede turn one next time instead of wasting everyone's time.
Datamine when?
>>5968768715 minutes before update. As it has been for over a year.
>>59687694they pushed mega rising a day early because it was a big update. might happen again here.
Post ITT when you notice the datamined leaks. Actually hyped here. Please? Thank you.
I think they’ll wait until the ranked ends to roll out the update at the reset, to avoid any issues and cries...
>>59687937Dude it's still 2 days away. There's no leak anytime soon. Best case scenario is at tomorrow's night reset.
>>59687938The new set is out in 28 hrs
>>59687961The trailer said 29th I'm pretty sure. Unless they changed the release hour, again.
>>5968796529th JP time, you can always look at when the random battles are rotating to see when the new packs are dropping.

with mario kart and pokemon unite shutting downfeels like this game's on borrowed time
Anyone wanna help me finish my reverse holos? Ill favorite all the ones im missing, we could trade back and forth and just finish each others’ collections. please don’t make me spend points on reverse holos bros I earned this copycat kid ._.
>>59688078How so?
Got this on hub today, thought it was one of those people who misread and think you're offering the card you want, but it turned out to be legit. Goes to show you never know what card people want.
Is Wallace still good? Not sure what 2* Trainer cards there are left for me to care pursuing.
>Didn't complete the Deck MissionsSomeone trade me 21 cards before the update!
Is the game worth getting back into? I dropped the game not long after the gay bird patch after building a full Giritina Darkrai deck and being bored shitless spamming it on ladder.
Overall significant haul:>Mega Sceptile deluxe FA from wonder pick>Mega Venusaur deluxe FA from wonder pick>Mega Charizard X deluxe FA from pulls>Golden Koraidon>Shiny DiancieAlas, I wanted a trainer FA but ig I can't be picky
>>59688078Bait used to be believable.....
>>59688078Probably and I wouldn't even be mad
>>59688368That opinion is absolutely crazy. Also easily callable as, "bait". You don't remember how much money people have spent on Pocket TCG? Too fucking much, all the while service to maintain the game is practically cheap. Actual profit happening for Nintendo. You're dumb for trying to bait...or else dumb for posting without even thinking.
>>59688389It's happening.
Is tonight or tomorrow the last night to do all the solo battle stuffMostly done anyway
>>59688402You have about 23 hours and 47 minutes.
>>59688402>>59688405Nevermind it's gone.

What's a rental card?
>>59688465
>>59688471
>advertise dual types>only 2 dual-type cards in the entire set
>>59688420There is something...off about this Serena.
>>59688473
>>59688470probably an extra card that doesn't have to be in your deck
>>59688482
>>59688474PLEASE UNDERSTAND
This set is straight cheeks.
>>59688465Fellas, is it gay to touch tail tips?
>>59688486
>>59688486Is this some sort of reference why is there a pink ttar
>>59688492
>>59688496
>>59688494I think it's like the Planeta Megas where they have the non-Mega in the background of the card.
>>59688499
Pupitar for TL Tyranitar.
>no mega DelphoxFUCK
>>59688501>>59688445Finally.Immersives coming up.
>>59688505
>>59688420Love this art, the light colours almost give a pastel vibe>>59688501Will stocks brrr
>>59688507Guess what...
>>59688501Damn desu since it’s a basic steel type can’t you just keep healing / attaching tools to it and just keep attacking dishing out damageLike this is a rather good beat stick with Will isn’t it
>>59688507Inb4 someone prints this and becomes expensive.
>>596885083 energy and a supporter to hit the same damage as any other mega.They hate Steel.
>>596885093 of them?
>>59688420Will this be more useful than Oak? You get to choose from three options.
>>596885144 of them!
>>59688520No new trainer immersive? Meh.
>>59688520And a 1-star item.
>>59688520>two energy You got lucky today you fuckers
>>59688520>>59688507These 2 are probably the mission immersives that they mentioned
The power level seems extremely low. What the hell? Are they finally doing a rotation or something?
>>59688509So like what does this guy doJust a basic who can hit 160 with Arena or Antiquity? 190 with Korina or is she lucario only I forget
>>59688517Probably a single inclusion. Being able to choose is a big deal, but if you don't get what you want in the top 3 then you only mill 1 card instead of 2.The problem is Deck space is at a premium.
>>59688524Some new shinies.
>>59688536Some old shinies. Not gonna post them all cause I'm lazy.
>>59688539Nevermind there's not many left.
>>59688543
>>59688547
>>59688550I think that's all.
Did they forget him?Is he going to be included in the weekly starter pack?
>>59688524This is what Lucky Ice Pop should have been.
>>59688555He's not here.
>>59688558Fucking bravo, Dena.>we're going to have new starter ex cards special for the C1 expansion>it's literally only fuecoco
>there are only 2 Dual types in the whole set
what do we think so far?
>>59688536>random single hitBrother, this is worse than Genetic Apex Dragonite. Did they learn nothing from Camerupt?
>>59688567A couple of the regular cards seem fun, but the ex and most of the supporters are dogshit.
>>59688567The artwork seems to be a step up from what we've been having lately.Some cards are fun but the megas seem kinda shite.
>>59688567Meh/10
That's it...
>pack cover gets both rainbow and immersiveFucking finally.
>>59688584Darkrai or Nihilego on the bench for this one? Or a 2-1 split?
>>59688586WHAT ARE "RENTAL CARDS"?!
>>59688592Probably a card spawned out of thin air that vanishes when it's discarded.
>>59688592It generates a card. You don't have to have them in your deck.
>>59688507No Espeon? :(
>>59688567I wanted full art field cards.
>>59688594>>59688596Just raise the deck cap to 30...
>>59688599Not immersive.
>>59688604Typical Umbreon bias :(
Not many other interesting cards at a glance. Full list will be up on your favorite website at any moment.
>>59688611You're going to say that after Eevee Grove and Paradox Drive?
This set is kinda ass lol. Art is good though
>>59688615Here's to another year of sleepfaggotry
>Megas with sub 210 hpLmfao
>>59688434>>59688430>>59688416>2 packs>3 crownsUh. Help?
I can't unsee the Venusaur ballsack/foot.
Mewtwo X and Pika are the mission Immersives...
>>59688626
>>59688615Yeah....
Tyranitar is saved
>>59688635I'm going to try it with Arceus and Ilima.I don't expect it to work very well.But I will try.
>>59688615Not regretting taking a break from this game
Greninja got even more busted. This card makes it possible to have 3 Greninjas on board. You can have 1 Greninga EX and 2 basic Greninjas on the bench
>>59688646You could also run 1 Froakie to have a more consistent opening for any of the various Grenigger decks.
>>59688646And if you have Frogider in your hand, you can use the new Serena supporter card to put it back into your deck
>>59688649New Serena isn't draw 3, you just look at them.
131 diamond cards. 21 1-stars.
>>59688651Serena is a draw 1 and puts cards back into your deck which makes her useful for a lot of decks that require cards to stay in your deck
>Another set without Mienshao Fucking trash
>>59688659>>59688661N...NANI?!
>>59688584>we have hydreigon at home
>>59688608so SR pika ex can hit 200 with this + red? kinda neat actually.
Now we can see the opponent's deck after the battle...
>>59688671Welcome back Celebi ex.
>>59688671I assume all 8 of these will be in the same drop event.Joy.
>>59688671>move all psychic energy onto mewtwo Ywoah. that means instant 6 energy playing it behind m-garde.
>>59688681Pikachu is the yearly premium ticket promo. Blue squares are a pack drop event. The Stantler/Alcremie/Delibird are Mission rewards. Mega Dragonite is the November premium promo.
>>59688680Any card that makes one psychic energy act as two like that one Serperior does for grass energy?
>>59688686no, or diancie would be giga broken.
>>59688686No but it's supposed to use that Lunala and that new Item card to load your Mew.
>>59688505jesus these fucking suck. full heal is literally just malasada but worse, max repel is useless against a shitload of decks, and super potion is the worst heal card ever printed. goddamn.
any new stadiums?
>>59688702
>>59688702Just one. Flip a coin, if heads draw 1.
I'll spend some hourglasses. The rainbows are cool.
>>59688715Serena's got me by the balls here.
>>59688425>They actually kept her milkersBased
>>59688434so you're supposed to run this guy with raikou and sr pika ex? play it like suibax but swap chien pao's snipe for a massive nuke?sr pika hits for 180 with light ball equipped, raikou sets up cyrus plays for pika to capitalize on, maybe there's something here.
>>59688732Don't forget Nemona doing +80.
>>59688732And Nemona as a finisher.
>>59688733>>59688734nemonabros is it finally our time
>>59688706This made think in this.
>>59688659>100 for 1 energygod damn.it's a shame you can't really run this dude with meowstic and hatterene because that's way too many pokemon.
>>596887672 2-stages isn't that much deck space taken up. Plus, it gives you an excuse to use Skyla.
>>59688739my body is ready
>>59688421>boss's orders for zard Y decksWHAT THE FUCK IS DENA THINKING?? WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT???????
>>59688779>can't read
>>59688781are you retarded? zard Y ALREADY runs the stupid shitty crimson blaze zard that was unplayable dogshit, now it can run an actually good zard that does that zard's job way better, makes entei more threatening, and enables FUCKING BOSS'S ORDERS
>>59688789the new charizard sucks
>>59688794so you are retarded, okay
Holy shit that rainbow mega dnite art is trash. At least I can focus on rolling the shiny
>eiscue with eviolite takes -60 damage>with soothing shore up your opponent doing anything less than 90 damage isn't going to make any progress at allkek, maybe it's time to break that guy out again.
Huh?
>>59688611Compare the playability of Paradox Drive Umbreon and Espeon and tell me more of this Umbreon bias.
Skyla sex deck is working
>>59688770You already have Peculiar Plaza. Skyla is not needed.
>>59688789Anon, it only works on non EX charizards
>>59688855and what's that card zard Y decks already run to beat oricorio? it wouldn't happen to be... non-ex charizard, would it?
>new raboot buffs rabbit jumping attack>don't think much of this>notice the new azumarillum, bros? get two raboot up behind this, flip 8 coins at 60 per heads for only 2 energy?
>>59688420Actual garbage this game is helpless. We are seriously starting to repeat trainers already? Fuck off. I'm done, forget collecting the female protagonist cards it's clear they already ruined it with the adjective cards.
>>59688932and lopunny has the rabbit jumping attack too, less damage per heads but only one energy cost.with both raboot up this thing does average 160 damage for ONE energy. what the fuck? has anyone else noticed how good this is?
>>59688850Post deck
+Deoxys+Deerling+Sawsbuck+Volcanion+Nickit+Thievul
>>59688420Why the fuck she looks the fucking same? XY's gimmick was that we could change the protag's appearence, they could have at least do that
>>59688439Which generation sprite does this art represent?
>>59688989i honestly have no idea. as far as i can recall pokemart employees always wear blue and white or blue and orange, never white and orange.
Pikachu pack has one extra 2 diamond card. Doesn't affect much.
>>59689030Immersives should read 1/90 with 1 per pack. I accidentally had the mission ones as available in both packs.
>>59689034oh, the mission immersives are actually mission-only? that's kind of lame. what if you wanted two? like for the pikachu who you definitely want to open with for the funny turn 2 60 damage.
>>59689036Yes, you have to collect a certain amount of Psychic and Fighting pokemon to get Mewtwo, and a certain amount of Electric pokemon to get Pikachu immersives.Also noticed that I had Sweet Honey as available in both packs when it's a similar mission that requires a certain amount of bee pokemon.
*Explodes*
With Unite going End of Service, I'm uninstalling this app. One of my convictions for this was that even if it makes no money, TCP will keep it alive just to preserve brand integrity. Unite dying is the canary in the coalmine. This shit is going to EoS as well, though I do at least give it another 2 years or so before they pull the plug. Even Unite was given like 5 years to run before they gave up. Though that definitely took more money to upkeep. In any case, I'm not confident this shit will survive and I know I'm going to be bummed out when the inevitable announcement happens. So I'm ripping the bandage off now before it becomes more painful later. It's not like I spend money on this (and I doubt many others do either; they successfully made a gacha game where spending is fucking pointless).We had a good run, I guess.
>>59689030Corrected the errors mentioned.
damn thought I had a couple hours left but the free batles were removed right now. I had more glass to grind for... reached like 1200 glass from saving the last 2 packs and grinding battles there... could've been a lot more.
got the best possible pika from the pika pack. wonder if this card's gonna be playable again with light ball pumping it up.
>>59688416>they got a literal porn artist to draw this>extra emphasis on her thigh highsSSEXXXOOOO
>>59689060Legendary misquote.
>>59688494That's his gay lover.
>>59689062nah. tina has thigh-highs if you think about it.
>>59689057Is a 2 star pikachu guaranteed for the last pack? Or did we get lucky?
>>59689070a 2-star or shiny-2 is guaranteed, yeah.
>>59689057>>59689070I got the GA Pikachu as well, seems guaranteed
>>59688558>>59688560Isn't tat because they're in the special Starter Pokemon back, which for some reason doesn't seem to be in the datamine?
>>59689045You won't birth either? Eighteen years gone? No longer yours.Two years is pretty good. Also, not gonna miss you. Having some fun.
>>59688589wtf, this is going to let people run 3 copies of Greninja in their decks (2 regular, 1 EX/mega). That actually makes the mega feel a lot more powerful since you're doing 140 damage on a Cyrus'd mon who can't retreat. Not that retreating fucking matters anyway, once they have 140 damage on them they will die from the 40 damage next turn, most likely.
>>59688592Tokens, from YuGiOh. But Pokemon is too retarded to just use the same system.
>>59688767no need for more Pokemon :)
>>59688671Okay. but this is literally just a cock and balls???
>>59688819I've already been using him with Magnezone/Magnezone EX support since he's kind of an energy hog. But the new Blastoise seems like he'll also be a great addition, though it loses the burst damage that I have with EX zone. But getting the ability to swap anyone from bench to active using the new Blastoise is perhaps worth that tradeoff. Plus I can use helmet on Blastoise instead of poncho, considering Wartortle has poncho built in.
>>59688639this thing is actually kind of incredible now. it hits up to 210 with arceus + korrina + arena, which means its ceiling is higher than mega ttar and it's only one point. if mega ttar is playable at all then this one will also be playable because they work the same way. 160 HP on a non-ex that can run helmet is huge btw, mewtwo fails to KO, lucario fails to KO, pikachu fails to KO, etc.
>>59689111eiscue blastoise sounds fun with the new blue card and maybe chien-pao. just prey on their bench all game and hope you don't run into something like mega venusaur.
The game takes so much longer to load some of the menus, notably My Cards and the PvP ready screen. What the fuck did they change with their vibecode to make these take a long ass time to load now?
>>59689155dude, you complain about this every set and it's never true. get a new phone, i'm tired of this ritualposting.
as I grieve my loss of glass, I got a Pikachu God Pack. Yay.
>>59689159I'm literally playing this on an iPhone Duo...
Are m. Greninja and Mewtwo X in separate packs?
>>59689193yes, they're also literally the only two dual types. What a fucking botched implementation of the new gimmick. Extremely disappointed. Not only do they not really function as dual types (with energy costs that position them as usable in either color, or even *GASP* actual dual type decks!!!) but they only introduce fucking TWO of them and they're in separate packs. What a fucking joke.
>>59689171>gp from pika event
>>59689200i feel like they decided on dual types as the c series gimmick, locked that in, and then realized halfway through actually designing the cards that dual type is a failure of a gimmick on a fundamental level.
>>59689215Rainbow Cave makes dual type decks a lot more feasible to play with. They made Dragons workable. There just need to be more cards that have a good overlap with two types to really break through.
>>59688456that shit looks AI generated out the ass
>>59689218oh, i don't mean dual energy cards. i mean the concept of a card that has two types. as it stands, literally only fighting dual types have any real benefit from their second type due to the damage stacking of korrina and arena. mega greninja gains literally nothing from a dual type, and same goes for every other possible combination besides X/fighting. grass/fire? water/psychic? lightning/metal? pokemon like this would simply gain nothing but weakness damage, the concept flat out does not work.
>>59689219Have to agree, yeah. It's very soulless. Enough that I actually think they used AI as the base, which literally wouldn't be surprising given how much Japan is bending over backwards for AI. Saw an NHK video where some animation studio was talking about how they can use AI to speed up the process significantly of anime. Not with AI as the end result, but just using AI for in between frames and having real artists go over the slop. Would not be surprised in the fucking least bit if we get generic soulless slop cards because either the artist himself decided to cut corners or the person in charge of commissioning them sent a fucking AI slop base.In either case, the art is ass. Not on a technical level, it looks great. It just has no fucking impact.
my wife is pregnant so im uninstalling this game
>>59689233Could you at least trade some cards?
>>59689250no, my wife is pregnant
>>59689233Grind for masterball while she gives birth
>>59689263So I understand that Sweet Honey works like a token(rental card) and you can't add it to your deck? That would explain why it looks broken.
>they specifically made it so Melmetal's damage reduction doesn't stackLol, lmao even
>>59689070>>59689075Nice, another fodder 2 star to trade with my alt
>>59689082>chikoritaNice!
>>59689284to be fair, you don't really need more than one anyway. if you're tankmaxxing you're better off with 2x indeedee 1x melmetal than the reverse. one melmetal is enough to block hoopa, too.
Everyone says this set is weak every set until it’s proven to be power creep
>>59689292Not sure why the English site didn't give info on it. >New Special Pack system starting with SP1>Once a week, we get 1 "Special Pack Power">Possible to trade cards of the same rarity >Each pack has a single 1 star card in it >For SP1 it says it features starters from all 9 regionsPlanned for future updates:>Mission rewards to earn more pack power points>Special Pack Hourglasses to regen points>Accessories to go along with special pack themeIt's not in the datamine for some reason? Dataminers don't know where to look for it? It's SP1, its own pack outside of the Dual Fusion packs.
>>59689353Niggas ganna see me rollin with that Eiscue + Evolite + Soothing Shore + Grenigga + Grenigga + Mega Grenigga EX and cry.
>>59689228What's the problem with that? Seems like a perfectly valid use for a tool, especially if they have humans overseeing the end result.>but muh soul, muh artIf the people in charge cannot guarantee the end result is acceptable then that's a problem with them, not with the ai. Same as using a ruler to measure something, measuring it wrong and saying it's the ruler's fault somehow.
>>59689405I never said any of that, you're arguing with yourself. I use AI as a tool. It doesn't mean the end result won't suffer issues that it otherwise wouldn't have had if I didn't use AI. But I can definitely get it out faster.I also hate CG for the same reason. Planeta slot is also souless slop. The more you're relying on the "tool" to speed the process up, the more you'll lose in the end result. Traditional art is just flat out better than digital art; but that doesn't mean digital art is inherently bad.So, the use of AI isn't inherently bad. But the end result will inherently be worse in most cases than if more manual involvement was done on each stage. I actually have an RTX Blackwell 6000 Pro and generate images locally. So you're certainly getting the wrong read on me.
>>59688852You can only retreat once per turn, and Meowstic only works in active.
>deluxe ex pikachu to get the emblemWhat a pleasant surprise.
I thought we were supposed to be getting a new single player option to replace Step Up Battles. It's still just Step Up Battles but they nuked all the old ones?
>>59689481Yup
>>59689482Did they just lie then? I swear they had a whole spiel about a new mode that got stronger as you played through it (which I guess still does describe Step Up Battles).
>>59689516Yes, but now the battles expire.
Emulators fucked again?
>>59689093I don't know what are "tokens" either.
>>59689530Is this your first card game or something? Tokens are game objects(cards) created by game or card mechanics, they are not part of your deck and unless stated otherwise once they leave the board or get played from your hand they're gone forever and you can't recycle them.
>>59689534Are you surprised the Pokemon niggas, especially Pokemon niggas playing a mobile gacha, never experienced anything but Pokemon?
>>59689543Honestly, yeah, I like pokemon but it's not exactly my singular obsession in life.
>>59689546Wait until you hear how many non-Nintendo games the average Nintendo fan has ever played.
we need more field spell cards.
>>59689284Not my problem, I'll be running it to support Melmetal EX and take care of Oricorio anyway.
>>59688458Why is he so phallic?
>doesn't stackThis to me if anything is an indicator they have something to still release that will actually save metal.
>>59689518Okay so they just fucking lied. I expected them to replace step-ups with something worse, not with literally the same thing on a timer.
>>59689580Metal plays another game as the Defense delegate. Already too much clutter printed its way, I don't believe it can be "saved".
>>59689578first we had butt mewnow we have penor mew
>>59689593They just don't want players to have savings they can tap on whenever they really want/need to pull on a set, they want you to feel the fomo and know the average player can't hold on to more than 200 hourglasses.
>>59689593I still think that you will need to clear the steps in order (beginner,...,expert), that would be the main difference
>>59688646>Suicune up your frog bastards because sudden duplication works from benchTwo water shurikens online with a deceptive needle m greThey're giving the meta back over to the frog again if there were ever any doubts
>>59689637And they don't want you to have shop tickets, either. If that wasn't already obvious enough.
>>59689639>kills tardcune turn 3>kills a gay frog turn 5 for gamefrogtards kneel to rabbitgods
>>59689639call me crazy but i think 1 shuriken 1 ex 1 mega is the play. if you just run mega and 2 shurikens you're going to run into issues with suicune's 2 retreat cost since the deck has no acceleration. and if suicune dies up front and your bench is just 120 hp grens and maybe a second suicine, a sabrina is just game. gren ex fixes both the suicune retreat issue and the sabrina issue.
rabbit jump seems really strong at a glance, no? the sheer amount of coinflips makes the damage pretty consistent, it's a fully nonex archetype so your opponent always has to go through 3 rabbits, and it'll definitely run 5-6 stage 1s so sightseer gives a lot of consistency. highroll potential is insane between double early raboots and getting lucky with heads, lopunny is going to be hitting for hydreigon numbers turn 3 more often than not and a lategame azumarill with 2 raboots up is effectively charizard Y. i don't think it's gamebreaking or anything due to needing a lot of cards to pull off its combos but this is looking like the best nonex deck since gourgeist houndstone.
Anyone wants a chocolate girl?
Is the "community" really using those funny decks?
new thread>>59689903>>59689903>>59689903
>>59689580Have this Melmetal be a benchwarmer for GA Melmetal + Heavy Helmet, its gonna be tanking loads of damage... granted you can get that magical card combo going before Meltan gets nuked.
