Someone please trade me a rainbow Mew EX.
>we get TWO 2* ticketswhat the fuck lol
>>59693227What's the optimal pack to pull from?
This is maybe my 10th godpack that I've gotten on an alt, and I've still not had one on my main. Almost 34,000 cards on my main, and still no Godpack. Love this shit game. Fuck.
>>59693238Depends on what you need, but best options are probably GA Charizard (Sabrina, Erika, and a smaller pools of 2*s ), STS Palkia (Cyrus, Cynthia), MR Altaria (Lisia), or MR Gyarados (RR Absol, Copycat)
>>59693246I don't need anything in particular, I'm mostly looking for tradebait. The only thing I'm looking for is Mew EX.
>>59693249GA 'zard is probably the best trade bait to garbage ratio.
>>59693246>>59693249Gyarados might be the best pick. 2* Greninja and Absol, 2* RR Greninja and Absol, and Copycat are 5/11 tradeable cards. 6/11 if you include RR Jolteon.
>>59693252I got rinsed
>>59693258
>rip GA zard on all my alts>12 straight planetas, 6 of which were machamp exrigged, i say. i knew dena was too stingy to give us real rates. whatever.
I'm inclined to go STS palkia just because cynthia, cyrus, and mars are all pretty sought after cards and cyrus can basically get any card you want in trade, if you don't actually want to keep it for yourself.>>59693252>>59693246I'm gonna call bs on absol being worth anything.had that fucker in my trade list for months since I got it and I can count the number of offers I've gotten for it on one hand - and not one of those has been for something I actually had in my wish/trade list they're just offering some random planeta slop.Any time I see someone trading something I want and has absol wishlisted and I offer it - 100% ghost/decline.It might be a card with high perceived desire and value, but no one actually wants it.But mega gyarados might still be worth just for copycat since that's almost cyrus level trade value (unless people only want the deluxe version now)
>>59693246>>59693251>>59693252Both of you guys cooked my shit
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I won.
oh well. was hoping for either gren ex version. at least it was a dupe so i got some dust for it, could've been worse.
>nobody uses Mars anymoreI lost.
>>59693273>>59693267>>59693260man I should getting into alts...
>>59693276no reason not to, really. my phone allows 4 separate "users" so i just run 3 alts right off of that. 8 packs a day instead of 2 adds up quick.
DoneThat was only possible because I genuinely wished for M-Absol.Altfags could never understand karmic retribution.
>>59693276Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I owe a majority of my tradebait to my alts, but other times it feels like having them sucked the luck out of my main. All three of the posts you replied to are mine, but this is also my post. >>59693244Be careful. Making alts may or may not drain the luck from your main.
cute art
>>59693273Is mars still a high value card despite it not really being run?I remember whenever I was trying to trade for one people were the stingiest fucks I've ever seen
>alt 1 opened MR GyaraPlaneta Greninja>alt 2 opened STS PalkiaPlaneta Palkia>main opened GA Zardpic related
>>59693244I stopped caring to see this around 10k. Now it's just sad.
I hate that I'm hoarding 2 spare Oaks for the inevitable day that something worth it to me will be released, and I'm worried that by then, Oak won't be worth what I want. It's definitely better for the rest of the playerbase, so at least it's a net positive though.
so does that 2-flip sleep jiggly have meta potential or is the 2 energy cost kill it?I remembered rolling my eyes when I saw it in the list because I'm so sick of sleepscam
>previewing all the promo I can ticket while laying on the couch to see if there's any I have none of>cat walks over and steps on my dick>misclick an exchange on Meowstic as a resultluckily I had at least 1 copy of everything else
when are we getting a supporter or item card that prevents the use of abilities?
I got a FA of that Pokemart nigga and I can't think of a single reason you'd fucking use him.....what a shit card. I mean, he kinda qt tho...But what the fuck is this effect? It would have been better if he acted like PCL and maybe let you pick either max repel or super potion or full heal effect. Then that's worth it and I don't even thin that's broken desu, just the option to pick 1 of the 3 effects for your trainer that turn. This nigga really thinks you're using TWO SLOTS minimum in your deck for his ass?I say this, but watch next set release a Rotom-esque Pokemon that does more damage when you have all these cards in your hand or some shit.
>>59693321They should have used their new "rental card" mechanic to have this nigga summon one of the 3 items in your hand. Like you're placing an Doordash order from the Pokemart or something. Thematically fitting, feels fresh, and actually makes the card somewhat useful since you can decide what item you need in the given matchup.
HOLY FUCKI actually got FA Sabrina. Finally the game isn't fucking me over for once.
>>59693326You know the rules. Post a video of you jerking off to her and post it on >>>/trash/
Got Cyrus, I wonder if this could finally get me an Oak.
>actually get a trainer from GA char>fucking blaineheh
>RR Wailord on main>Planeta Wailord on altI have no words. Also got Rika when I wanted Serena's Cheat. Can't win today
Where the FUCK is my Ribombee Emblem?I have more than enough of what's required for it
>>59693403Nevermind, it's supposed to be 50 but as usual Misuta Merrickuuu is too "preoccupied" to keep his info straight
Fine I may have underestimated you.I think it's the first I manage to beat Expert AIs with rentals, save a few exceptions like... Gyarados, Iron Valiant? Now I'm doubting myself, the shit is fresh
>>59693185trade a FA trainer for it already or shut the hell up and wait a few weeks
>>59693185anon it's a brand new RR of a popular pokemon that's actually useful. be realistic and wait for a week or 2 for trading to calm down or just give up something valuable. shinedust makes it so people have to think about their trades so no one will give it to you for FA Marowak or other trash like it. it's a doggy dog card world so either become the chinaman or wait
>>59693286she lost all her value when red card released so anyone who thinks she's worth a lot is just delusional at this point. still has some value because she's a waifucard but that's about it
Are there any requirements to get the 2* ticket, or can I reroll an alt a hundred times to get what I want?
This ticket creates unbelievable choice paralysis
>>59693546Let me stop you right there retard, as Red Card had been available from day one & only got to see any usage (once Mars got released via STS) but only in tandem her to annoy the absolute PISS outta 2Stage Decks, especially with Rare Candy's introduction which she reached a fever pitch in spammatude.Though during CB's introduction people realized CopyCat brutally dunks on her festering twat & then some, slowly but surely eroding her usage til she's nothing more than a miserable fuckhole of a Chasecard nowadays.Tldr;You're mostly correct but not timeline-wise
>>59693561get your FA rapidash already and get it over with
>>59693515>>59693545No matter how many packs I open, I can't win.
>after careful consideration and comparison, decide on redeeming ruler of the skies since it has 7 possible 2 stars I would want>get dupe DraydenAnyone want this old man barabait? Or do I invest in draco memeteor stocks?
>>59693578This makes me realize how some people lose everything in casinos.total and absolute lack of self-control
>>59693600That was a free pack. You're not wrong, but 3/6 of my Umbreons were from free packs.
I'm thinking about Secluded Springs since I want Entei and wouldn't mind Suicune.
Is Max Repel anything?Like, Repel was worth running in the decks that had space for it because "I need to Sabrina their guy out without actually using Sabrina because I need to Oak/CC" was a common enough gamestateStruggling to think of any possible deck that is so scared of a specific Stage 2 mon they would even consider Max Repel as a tech option, especially since regular Repel still works (and is probably still the better choice) into S2 decks without being a brick into Basic/S1 decksBasically, is there some batshit endgame scenario where you NEED to force out a Stage 2 while leaving your Supporter option open that I'm not thinking of. Even just in the context of countering an AI deck
>wanted Sabrina or Erika, both on the same pack.>Get old bald man insteadPlease, someone want this ugly old man? I accept anything except other MALE card, please! JUST TAKE HIM AWAY FROM ME!
>>59693152You forgot the title, moron.
>>59693321>I mean, he kinda qt tho...Anon, i think you may be gay...or an actual girl.
any possible way to get the zygarde full art from this promo reissue or am i cucked forever
>game is now forcing version 1.8.1Welp, that's all my alts dead. And with that, any enjoyment I could get out of this jewish game.
>>59693645Looks like no. If I understand and remember correctly they are all cars you can get from promo packs, and that FA was unlocked by missions instead. I don't see it listed anywhere, anyway.
>>59693561I immediately tried for FA red and got 2 star Lucario. Just get it over with.
>>59693267Hey anon I’ll suck your dick for that machamp ex, it’s the last RR I’m missing from genetic apex
>>59693663what are you babbling about schizo
Hooray, planeta poliwrath ex, just what I always wanted
So, can I just create a secondary over and over to try for a Cyrus 2-star? Or is there some requirement that nrw accounts don't satisfy to get the special guaranteed 2-star booster?
>>59693700What are you offering? I'm expecting the blowjob as well, though.
>>59693263I saw someone on one of the trade apps wanted a RR Leafeon for their RR Mew, so I traded my RR Absol for Leafeon, and then Leafeon for Mew. Absol had it's moment to shine! Now I just need another Mew.
>>59693730Uhh iunno what do you want for it? I have things
Interesting, completing dex types gives you 25 shop tickets now (instead of 24 trade hourglasses). Wonder if this means they'll be adding trade hourglasses to the shop?
>>59693282I feel like they somehow have a flag on the backend that marks when you have alts and nukes your luck on the main account.
>>59693753Whatcha offering? I'm not looking for a Copycat or anything crazy, just wondering what you'd be willing to part with.
>>59693621Ok, I got someone to trade me the old fag for a Planeta Whimiscoop.
>got 2 DX Oaks a d Lillies>to date nothing has matched their value, especially OakGuess I'll just take these to the grave by the end of the month then
>>59693767Offering this mouth and a genuine consideration for whatever 2 stars you have on your wishlist. I have tons of RR’s, I can’t list everything I’m willing to trade unless you have no interest in rainbow raresAs for you my gifting friend, thanks for the free mega dragonite, I see you have some things on your wishlist I can hand off if you wanna send me a trade offer I’ll throw you any one of these ex’s, even mega mewtwo since I have the RR and the immersive
>>59693621YES! after getting ugly bald old man I was blessed with a waifu!
>>59693645Yes, just fight the battle in solo battling, zygarde ex fight is there.
>>59693185
>trade away Drayden this morning for RR Milotic>get him back from the 2* guaranteed ticket packwell that could've gone better
Wait, is Serena's Choice really thay good?I understand CopyCat was Series B's flagship meta candidate but it just seems like gooner's cope disguised as a meme
Was the free mega pack set up to give me something good or was I actually lucky for the first time?
>>59693972you were lucky
>>59693972From recent bonus week that gave away Fantastic parade packs I got nothing but around last year when they were giving free Deluxe ex pack (after it's month was over) I got finally first crown Rare candy
>>59693931
>>59693959It digs you 3 cards deep in a game where decks are 15 cards big after you draw your starting hand.
>>59693977Nice>>59693984Yeah, I don't usually get anything good from free packs either. So it's nice when it finally happens
>>59693805I was surprised to see my wishlist as I caught up on the thread. You are welcome, and I'm happy to trade. If I understand the menu correctly, you need a giratina ex? I can trade that or something else for any ex you are willing to part with. Thank you!
Not sure which Promo Pack to choose from the rerun. Already have a good number of each card, and I don’t use much Dust.
Should I use my ticket to see if I get a FA Korrina?
>>59694007I actually have giratina ex on my alt but I would take it from you since you already shared with me! After this Skarmory ex is my last missing ex from this set. Thanks a bundle anon
>>59694062Hmm, I have skarmory ex on my alt. If you don't get it by reset, I can trade or share it so that you're not missing anything between accounts
>>59693959>>59693990adding on to this, "look at 3 draw 1" is effectively the same as "draw 2" in a game where half of the deck is irrelevant to your actual wincon
>>59694085Ok, I’ll probably have a free share available. Do you still want this Mewtwo?
So Serena is a better May right?
>>59694201apples to oranges. they're totally different cards.
oh so this is how we're supposed to get the tickets for shop glasses now
>>59694201They do completely different things, Serena is better than Oak though.
>>59694201The closest card to her is Oak with the distinction that Oak is a +1 but you cannot choose yhe cards and Serena is +0 but you can choose the card you want. Different usecases and ideally you'd run 1 in just about any deck since draw power is huge in a 15 card deck.
>>59694276Even in the middle of a honeymoon phase I just can't believe it. Oak draws more cards, that's all there is to it really.
>>59694323If whatever card you need is 3 cards away, not two, you can get that. With oak, you get whatever two are next. It’s not as basic as how many cards are drawn when the right tempo of evolution or getting the wincon could be the difference between winning and losing
>>59694237I completed trainers and didn't get tickets. But even if it's only for Pokémon, that should still be enough.
>>59694323Choosing 1 from 3 is always better than two randoms.
>>59694390There's the argument for deck cleaning. Drawing 2 randoms with Oak mean those 2 are gone next turn, which gives your future draws more power.Putting 2 back with Serena makes your future draws not much better.
>>59694422Don’t forget the utility of shuffling after you see three pieces of garbage
>>59694390This. The only time draw two is better is if you have none of your combo pieces in hand.But how many times have you been sitting on 2/3rds of your wincon, you can't copycat since the odds of redrawing your RC or stage 2 are shittier than just drawing two, Serena is always better in that scenario. Turn one, copycat is the bestTurn two oak if you don't have any of your combo, serena if you do
>>59694422I don't really give a shit about my future draws if Serena finds the card I was looking for.If Serena bricks than prof would have bricked and there's a high likelihood I lose the game either way
I like the new Alolan Exeguttor, thing is your ass is getting blown up if you don't open with the grass cape because your eggy boys ain't living to Amass without it.
>>59694452>I don't really give a shit about my future draws if Serena finds the card I was looking for.Right, which is why she's better late game when you have fewer cards left. Oak is still better early by removing more cards from the deck for the late game.
>>59694432Oh yeah, that is a nice detail.
>>59693805I'm the anon that offered to trade you the Machamp, but I'm not the same guy you're probably thinking of. That isn't my wishlist. Do you have an RR Greninja or Chien Pao?
>Raikou finally has good partners in the New Pikachu ex and Pawmot>still isn't playedI guess the issue wasn't the same as with Entei on release. Raikou itself really is the problem.
>>59694461I mean in situations where you really need to bench a particular basic right away I would still go for turn 1 Serena.
>>59694535Entei can at least start hitting for 120, Raikou is forever stuck with his base numbers.
>>59694180Because its a good staple card. It's not all about boobs
>>59694536Yeah, that's why it's not a black on white "this is better" answer. Very similar to the Copycat vs Oak discussions early on B series.
>>59694542And she's the only waifu on the pack
>>59694555Rika is debatable due to being a bifaunex that attract more females than males by default...but Lorelei is there too...
Which one is the best to farm some dust?
>>59694559Depends how lucky you get on the packs, but EXs give more dust than 1stars;
>>59693326Okay, but if you've ever played that piece of shit fucking slut Sightseer you'd know that this game is rigged as fuck and even looking at the next FOUR cards will rarely give you the cards you actually need. I'd have a fucking EEVEE deck and that bitch would say "haha, I only see 2 Oaks, a Pokeball, and a Cyrus. :)"And I'd rather just run Copycat over her in every instance.
Running 2 Oaks, 2 Copycats, 2 Serenas and 2 Pokeballs.Yep, it's gaming time
>Get FA Serena on my main yesterday>Load my alt today>Pick it again in WPFucking based duplication glitch

holy crap

Got a Deluxe Mega godpack from the missions...
>>596946451078626082226880
>>59694739This is why I always pick top left in Wonderpick. Doesn't matter, top left. Never change your mind. Sometiems you're wrong sometimes you're right, but you save yourself so much frustration if you just pick the same spot. No more "ah FUCK I was going to pick that spot!" or anything. It's all the same 1/5 odds, so just play the slot and let it be. If it's not on the top left then it simply wasn't meant for you.
>use my ticket to finally get FA korrina>Get Corvinight EX instead
>>59694810My issue with this is that I'll pick top right 99% of the time, but genuinely more often than not, I'll pick top right and then in my head I'll say "I really hope it's not in "top right" (or whatever my "intuition" tells me), and then it'll show up where I hoped it wouldn't be. This never works the 1% of the time I decide to follow my gut.
>>59694763Added!
>>59694816I have a spare, what can you offer me?
>>59694830Thanks bro, the kitty is headed to my main. c:
>>59694837Appreciate the assist anon! Maybe my second guaranteed 2 star ticket won’t be trash
>>59694559rayquaza ex with a heliolisk deck. They just load the field with a bunch of water foddermon it's very fast and painless
I love sending out straight up bullshit trade offers, but I hate when it happens to me.
this deck has me giggling like a retard kekbravo dena
>>59694931Do these stack? 6 extra flips?
>>59694931>>59694934Disregard, I'm a retard. I forgot that I can just add up the damage.
>>59694934yeah they stack its hilarious2 raboot on bench = 8x40 for lopunny, 8x60 for azumarill
After playing Fuecoco EX and the new Charizard, i think it's obvious they're setting Piplup EX to be Blastoise's counterpart for this archetype. Similarly, expect another Grass Starter EX to be Venusaur's buddy (Please Chikorita).Anyway, expecting Blue stocks to go up. I love Fuecoco as a lead more than Entei and having Boss's Order alone is worth it even without Charizard's +30 ping.
Is my Serena's Choice worth a Cyrus? Seems to be pretty high value, but I'm not sure it'll hold.
>>59694960I'd trade you Cyrus for Serena. 9320-6481-1357-7718
>>59694960I think so. In the early days of Copycat, people felt similar. Gradually people used it more and realized it really gets you out of a lot of tight situations. Serena is still a "draw 1 card" but you have a good chance of getting something you really need the longer you're in the game than what Oak can grant you.
Serena is key for those "FUCK, WHY ARE BOTH OIF MY EVOS THE FUCKING BOTTOM OF MY DECK" games.
>>59694635I thought you were joking. The auto mode used Cyrus to bring out Pikachu, swapped Mewtwo out, and then didn't attack.
Just believe
>>59695041Nice.
>>59695041Always believe in bottom right
So, for the ones that got what they wanted in their first ticket, what you gonna to choose in your second ticket?
>>59695066My first was a Planeta Mega Absol so maybe I go Gyarados again.
I'm retarded, can promos get gold borders?
>>59695110only normal 1-3 diamond cards can get them, so no
>>59695110no. because of this there's no point in having more than 2. you COULD get 10 just in case they change it, but they definitely won't.
>>59695115>but they definitely won'tyou're right. but it would be nice if we could trade event promos (not special one off/paid ones)
>>59694556>bifaunex What the fuck is that?
>>59695249Anon misspelled Bifauxnen. Contraction of Faux Bishonen. A woman that looks like a handsome men.
wtf Sabrina's worth is shot now? People only want Cyrus and Oak. Not a Sabrina offer in sight. Nobody wants Sabrina for Serena?...
I fucking hate going against Rotom decks. Not because they're any fucking good, but because they take a whole fuckig minute or two just to do 1 fucking turn where literally nothing happens. I can't imagine having fun playing that deck, you just jerk off for a full minute on the screen and all you accomplished was getting 1 energy and throwing your cards around like a fucking monkey.
>try for free 2star>get a shitty planeta how to make an alt?
>>59694957Too bad M. Blastoise sucks and M. Venusaur is best used alone...I was thinking at least Blastoise may be worth something, using baby Blastoise to Energy transfer waters to Mega so it actually gets its ridiculous attack online. But there's not enough room for that. And it manually takes forever to get online. Most likely scenario is Piplup EX dies and Blastoise isn't ready yet. Venusaur...well, I was thinking Shuckle EX may work, but Venusaur needs 1 more energy to use than Blastoise so...
>>59695376Once again, Charizard given the single usable card among the three. And Blastoise shafted to last place. Why the fuck do they keep doing the "durr put 20 energies on me and maybe I'll do something useful" gimmick with it?
Speaking of shafted starer Pokemon...I love how in the SP1 pack, Froakie is actually usable but most of the others have dogshit energy costs for a lackluster effect. I mean, not like it's "good" but at least you can use the cute art and get an attack out before evolving on turn 2 or something. The others just look pretty, but you're not getting 3 fucking energies on Litten. Be for real now.Ironically Squirtle is good too. Not sure why they didn't just take the opportunity to give us cool starters with nice effects or something to buff their lines. Even if they all literally just had a "Call for Family" like attack, it'd be an upgrade.
>>59695376i wouldn't count out piplup ex yet, maybe his release set has a use for the rampas for a grass starter ex, probably a heal or some status attack
>>59695392Ah, Piplup ramps? That fixes M.Blastoise's problem then.
>>59695376>Try Venusaur + Suckle EX + M.Sceptile for shits and giggles>Get fire opponents 4 matches in a rowI hate this game so much
I hope we get a 50 hp Dratini at some point. I'm playing a goodra deck and it'd make Lisia so good
Is there a collection tracker that gives you expected value for boosters in pack points? What's the best way to get the card data in a form that is easily imported to a spreadsheet?
>>59695467I know Zone has a sync account function but idk if how the collection is stored or if you can convert it to a spreadsheet.
>>59695066I used my first ticket on a palkia pack and got Cynthia (which I wanted), but the only other 2 stars I have from the pack besides that are Cyrus and planeta Mismagius. Might just stick with it, try to get something new or another Cyrus.
I have been using the Bunny deck to grind for the event cards and it's extremelly good, it's like the puppy set in steroids. My favorite part is when the AI puts a 120 HP Mon at the top and tries to setup
>>59695381It'd be kind of funny at least if it did 100 damage to the bench. You might be able to pull off wiping their entire board.
Can someone post the bunny deck list? Seems soulful
I really don't want to trade an Oak for Serena.
>>59695522She's the new Oak, Anon.
>>59695520here's what i've been using. one azumarill seems like the play over two, more room for search cards.
which promo rerun gives the most potential shinedust? I'm drunk and don't want to think
>>59695573from this set, anything that has both a 4 diamond card and 3 diamond card, which should be any of the ones with an Ex card besides M Garchomp.
Reissue battles are so easy compared to original
No really, what the fuck happened to Sabrina's value? Nobody wants anything for her anymore other than shit trainers. No Cyrus exchange for her either. People still run her though?...
>>59695583large supply increase due to being one of the optimal targets in the guaranteed 2 star packsgive it some time
is there any chance on titty monster lorelei getting me serena 2 or has the dust settled now
>>59695583Everyone is going for them with their tickets.
>>59695706I want a Wallace but only willing to trade the recent deluxe FAs M-Sceptile, M-Altaria and M-Lucario for him. That 8.33% is too slim for my liking
>>59695581I almost wish I didn't blow all my event stam already dust grinding on auto
>>59695389NTA but another example is this specific Tepig, it's LITERALLY a reprint of GA Charmander but with +10HP & RC. That's legitimately amazing by comparison as btoh the 0dmg Ramper vs 10-40 on a flip version(s) are hella mediocre & this whole time I've just wanted some consistency like godamn. EmboarEX/Mega Emboar will come out eventually for better or worse but this will be an excellent headliner once it does.Now 1st Partner Litten on the other hand, like I'm aware you can't really improve on Heat Tackle's synergy with IncinEX but what the FUCK were they smoking?
>>59695976it's better when/if we get a decent mega emboar card in C series, but right now you absolutely want to run memory stoke or go for early victini coinflip cheese over this tepig for flare storm emboar
I had 2 Cyrus, 2 Copycat, 1 Erika, 1 Sabrina, 1 Irida. I went with the zard pack cause I'd be content with another Erika or Sabrina. I ended up getting Erika now the appeal of going in zard the second time is less. Deciding what I should do with the second ticket.
>>59695981Bruh I've tried countless times & even when the planets align it'll either just die 8/10 accomplishing jack shit because you either wasted your turn(s) double-flipping Tails on Victini or not having your other pieces yet so you're caught with your pants down & they get to do whatever they want uncontestedThis kills babies, actually does significant damage, & synergizes with Rainbow Cave+Flame Patch much better which is more than good enough for meMy high pie in the sky hope is that I know won't happen, but a Fire/Fighting dual M-Emboar would be SICK
>Trade RR Mew for CHT Lillie DX>Apparently she fucking lost value over night because I can't even trade her for copycat anymoreWtf? Am I retarded?
>>59695706Instead to get either Sabrina or Erika...I got Blaine instead.
>>59695706I got exeggutor on my main and alt lol
>>59695706I really want Misty, Brock and Gio but I'm still indecisive on which pack to pull.
>>59696007>CHTThere's your problem anon. CHT cards are 100% 4 dollar alt account trash cards. You got swindled
>>59696010same...
Did anyone here get one of RGB mews?
According to https://pokemon.eleet.dev/ new Serena is more worth than Oak now
>>59696068mostly recency bias but still i can see her holding her value for a long time
>>59696068Thank you saar
>>59695706I went or the Lucario pack since it has the most meta relevant mons. Ended up with Planeta Lucario on my alt (or 2b whatever the fuck, it's all 3D slop with zero "artwork" so doesn't matter) and fucking CABBIE. Was hoping for Korrina or Parasol Lady, but that's fine.At least Lucario is good trade fodder, seeing if I can pilfer it off for something. Cabbie is such a funny smack in the face though, but at least it's better than Corviknight or Crustle (what the ACTUAL fuck where they thinking with this dude?)
>>59696007As the other Anon said, nobody cares about chingchongmakahayo cards. I think every Millenial associates Chinese stuff with "bootleg knockoff" even if now that torch has been passed on to poorer countries nowadays. The stigma of seeing a POKEMON item in particular with Chinese writing on it instead of Japanese instantly gives bootleg vibes. Anyone growing up during Pokemania knows to stay away from Chinese.
>>59696158This was some random ass box I pulled from google, but it's funny in particular cause it has both Chinese and Japanese on it. But yeah, I don't think Chinese related Pokemon stuff will ever get past the mental stigma particularly for those who are nostalgic of Pokemon. What's interesting is that now China actually has cool exclusive Pokemon merch, particularly figures. But even as officially licensed lines, I think most people get turned off by the Chinese association.
>>59696100She definitely will. She's a new staple in all my decks. Serena + 2 oaks + 2 copycats + 2 Pokeballs. Thanks DeNA, really feel like I'm getting more creative options with our limited deck space!!!
>>59696053I mean I don't see anyone asking for any Lillie EX
>AI starts with robot Tyranitar>uses prof Turo and ends the match >won without getting any points I need those points you fucking cunt.
>>59696189lmfao based AI making it literally impossible to complete the missions. Feature, not a bug :)
>>59696007DX lillie hasn't been worth shit since ice pop dropped and completely obsoleted her, reducing her to the level of DX lusaminewhere have you been for the last six months
>>59696189>>59696221They made both the opponent and auto AI mentally retarded. They'll just pass turns and do nothing when they can win.
>>59696269It's deck dependent. Mega Venu isn't passing turns.
>was able to leave the AI to handle these old easy decks before>now it fucking break and can't do shit and just pass turns over and over againI will assume they decided to use AI to programming this AI update, a really cheap one
>>59696333It's on purpose to make the automated generation of reroll accounts with thousands of hourglasses harder, if not impossible. Same reason why they got rid of all of the old solo missions to cripple new accounts.
>>59696255when did people start caring so much about meta value?lillie is still lillieher card could literally read "your opponent wins the game" and people would still want her for the art
It's crazy how no one rates de Deluxe Mega cards anymore, just a few days ago everyone wanted Mega Lucario.
So we all know Serena is getting the chase card for DX season 3, right? How the fuck are they going to top it? It's going to be like Copycat where the old art is superior but new one is wanted mostly for the rarity. Cause there's no way they get better art than it, it's like the best illustrated card in the fucking game right now. Unless they go full fanservice and make her in a microbikini or something, I just can't imagine a Serena reprint being a better card. >>59696339Bot farmer here. It's hilarious. It doesn't matter. My AI agents run my accounts now and have smarter AI than the built in AI. I run them locally and they just farm all day. Though getting rid of the step up battles did really hurt how efficient each individual account can farm. So instead of farming hourglasses it's just better to farm for individual cards to sell now. I expect the market to be less saturated with 4500+ hourglass accounts and just focus more on buying 2 stars.
>>59696461Probably just put her in an alt outfit or something
>>59696384It doesn't make a lot of sense, since Irida randomly skyrocketed in value at her absolute lowest usefulness because japanese people remembered they like her or something. Lillie in all forms has very low trade value. More than sense, this playerbase will hivemind the purported card demand extremely hard.
>>59696276It's most likely enemy dependent, AI skips turns on tripped up code logic when the enemy has a contact damage/status effect card that was ever in active during the ai's turn/action. They definitely aren't actively qa testing or patching it's behavior with new card interactions either
>>59696498I'm gonna run some tests. 20 random battles with 4 or 5 different decks on auto.See what gets the AI stuck.
>>596964863 different lillies doesn't help either, some people want the hat, some want the ponytail, others got 17 copies of the immersive
>>59696007>been asking ITT for someone to trade me a RR Mew >you traded yours for a botted $2 chinkshit Lillie I would've at least traded you an English Lillie DX at least. Damn.
>>59696598>at least at leastI'm so sad I can't even type.
>>59696486There's lots of other factors at play though since its a digital game.Like >>59696547 said there's a lot of lillies which lowers the value of any specific one because people might only want a playset.And lillie has an arbitrarily higher stock and availability just because of how many people have and will continue to mass pull that DX set to chase prof. There is already a very high amount of them, and demand isn't going up. Her value can only go down over time.Compare it to something like Irida. She's the only FA irida option. She comes from a set that is dog shit in current year so no one is pulling there instead of literally anywhere else with better hits (and it doesn't help she's basically the only chase card in the set). The stock is already low and demand stays the same, she will naturally have her value continue to go up.
>Caved in and purchased a chink 5000 hourglass account to get SerenaI feel dirty...I don't even spend money on this game.
>>59696791congrats on png that will last one year until EoS
>>59696813Meh, it was $3.50, I'll live. Definite not paying DeNA like $50 or whatever the fuck it costs to get 1250 pack points worth of Gold.
>>59696791>he didn't pull one on his alt and then WP itskill issue
>>59696817Evidently, this is why the game will EoS in a year. People will complain that the trading system is too restrictive, but gacha games absolutely cannot function profitably with trading because third worlders will undercut the developer hardcore. Of course, Pokemon Unite was the opposite end of the spectrum in making it pay to win as fuck, but the game becomes unprofitable on either end of the spectrum. Trading was a mistake for the long term.
>>59696791Holy fucking BASED the account came with the fucking free 2 star pack ticket still unclaimed and I got a Cyrus from it. Now that $3.50 was definitely fucking worth it.
I've run outta Frogadiers!People won't trade 1st Partner Bulbasaurs & Froakies on a fucking Quaxly!
>try alola egg + ribombee>up against greninja>need to heal 20 hp to win>8 straight tails on honeygay.
Guess who just got his third FA Pokemart Guy!!! The other FA trainers just don't exist on my account.
>>59696979Well on the bright side, now you can have an orgy with him.
>start game>don't have the right basic in hand>know it's game over before a single card is even playedbro why does this game suck so much dick
>>59697016That's why I put 2 Serenas, 2 Copycats, and 2 oaks in my dehcks :^)
>>59697021>Get not basics>Copycat>Get no basics or Pokeballs
>>59697021it literally doesn't matter dudedraw cards do not affect the game specifically fucking you over because you won too muchit's been TEN FUCKING GAMES since i was able to draw entei turn 1
>>59697016only run one basic
so any cool new decks that actually work?
>>59697106bunny
>>59697106bnuuy
dammit now i have to play the umbreon cheese decksfuckin pretty animation too
>>59696461>I expect the market to be less saturated with 4500+ hourglass accounts and just focus more on buying 2 stars.That would not just count for 30 days? like this is literally your last time to farm for these cards because after the event of the 2 star ticket is gone all the farmers lost their easiest way to farm 2 stars
>>59696876They seem to hate money. They've never once rerun cosmetics in the gold shop.
>>59697291seriously what's the point of not doing thati would absolutely pay for the cynthia cosmetics but they won't take my money
>>59697291Yea, the cosmetics in the shop should be how they really make bank. But they're overpriced for most people, they don't re-run (trying to fomo tactic I guess), and honestly there aren't enough of them to be enticing. The Erika pack they started with was actually pretty good, and I thought they would lean more into waifu fanservicing with it. But it's been pretty tame. There's also no reason they couldn't do things like monetizing attack special effect particle skins, paid PFPs, profile theming, etc. The cosmetics in this game are all pretty lame. It doesn't feel like there are many ways to really express yourself and they could really push that forward. They made an entire Team Rocket theme and you're telling me they didn't bother making it a bonus for if you have a full (paid) Team Rocket set on? Imagine how many people would pay just to not hear the same fucking song every single match. It was a breath of fresh air and they limited it to just NPC battles that will never return instead of monetizing it. What a fucking waste.
>>59697317Things they could monetize and have as cheap options instead of "give us $20 for an entire pack would be good. They have a weird all-or-nothing approach to monetization where you either whale up or free play. There's little option for in-between aside from the premium subscription which primarily has the draw of "open one more pack a day."People would pay $3 to have a soundclip of their favorite pokemon's cry play when they place the card or something to that effect. It costs them nothing, the fucking cries already fucking exist. Stuff like that is low hanging fruit they can use. It's not much, but it's SOME way to monetize outside of collecting; which is weak monetization when you can trade others and chink accounts farm the fuck out of all your cards to sell for $3.
>>59697327>soundclip of their favorite pokemon's cry play when they place the card or something to that effectWould love to have that. I haven't paid a cent for this game yet but I would for that
Anal
>>59697413>anal>attack is ramthey knew what they were doing
>Opponent Absol EX>I have Charizard, Charmeleon, and Blue in my hand>"Damn, he deletes Blue next turn.">Removes my Copycat, killing Charmander 1>"Uh...ok, guess he's aiming for next turn since Fuecoco can't oneshot.">Evolve Charmander 2 into Charmeleon>He deletes my Oak, damaging Fuecoco>"???">Retreats after getting hit by Fuecoco>Get's Blue'd back out>Disconnects lol people must still be assuming it's the OLD Blue with the shitty damage reduction effect. This is the issue with printing the same trainer card with different effects. Happened with the new Team Rocket cards too; it took me a moment for my brain to recognize the new grunts as "we confuse you" instead of "we take your energy."Franchise with over a thousand critters and hundreds of designs, including the ability to make your own OCs, and they already re-use characters. lol.
>Pulled Rika yesterday>Pulled Pokemart guy todayFUCK, it's over. Any chance at Serena has dwindled fast
>>59697455rika is good, she's hot and you need 1 more for her iconpokemart guy is shit though, im so sorry
>>59697457The way these account seeds go the next trainer will probably be PM guy or Blue's Unassuming Banter
>>59697457Wait, Rika is a girl?...
>>59697461or rising star
>>59697291>>59697317Like in Unite, the cosmetics are too pricey, so people don't buy them. Weren't Cynthia's cosmetics like $40? Also, most of the cards locked behind the paid subscription are ugly as shit.
>>59697465she isshe's deliciously flat
>>59697475delicious
>>59697455I would say I'll take the Rika but I have nothing from the new pack yet
i will now play your decks
>>59697455Pokemart guy has to secretly have higher odds. Everyone seems to be pulling his ass. He's the worst card in the set too. What the fuck were they thinking. He should have let you pick one of the 3 cards in his "shop" and then rental card it into your hand like the new Sweet Honey card. Missed opportunity to make him actually useful. It wouldn't even be broken, you're still just getting a single fucking item card from using a trainer, but you get the interesting flexibility of deciding which of the 3 items you want. Because there's no reason to ever include those items individually in your deck, but having the ability to summon one of them when you really need them actually makes them somewhat useful. AND it would thematically make more sense. You don't go to a fucking store to buy something you already had in your fucking pocket. You get something you DIDN'T have stocked up already. AND AND AND it would be a fitting pair with Pokemon Center Lady, who acts as kind of a combination of 2 different item cards; her entire utility is "you may not need a potion, but you need the status heal. Or you may not need the status heal, but need the potion." The flexibility of PCL is what makes her worth using. This dude has NO flexibility. Which is sad because I'd love to see him bent over so his head is poking out from between his knees.Super bummed out because I actually like his art. I would probably try to fit him in decks if he did something like that. They JUST introduced the rental mechanic so it would be fitting to have at least one other fucking card make use of it as well. So disappointed. Nobody is including those shit items cards in their deck, of course they're not putting his cute squeezable ass in the deck either with how tight space (and his ass cheeks) are. Fuck DeNA.
>>59697475does she have chest envy?
>>59697499They can't into any cards that "search" your deck, it's all random. Fuck 'em
>>59697499idk about oddsi pulled 2x serena and 1x lorelei, no PMGagreed on the rental thing though, if you could choose 1 of the 3 rental cards he would actually be a really nice supporter
>>59697499If I put him in a binder next to PCL, using Chansey as her Pokemon, what's fitting for him? Gimmighoul?
>>59697499>pick one as a rentalthat would actually be so cool, and a legitimate fun inclusion in deck as a contextual cardIf you're against sleepscam you can pull a full heal out, if you don't want to deal with a stage 2 you get max repel, and if you're against neither you just get to generate a universally good heal so its not a complete waste.Instead you have to have him and at least 2 cards eating up 3 valuable deck slots (two of which might be useless depending on what you're against). Its like they don't even play their own game to know how bad this is. The only way it can possibly be good is if they release a really powerful card that status cucks itself (like the snorlax that sleeps itself on attack, but actually good)>>59697505Meowth maybe?
