poison fang also has 50 bp

poison fang also doesnt have another secondary eff
kind vortex
whether that same percentage is balanced on an 80 bp move is debatable
i don't mind it too much but others might
hasty anchor
Righto
kind vortex
even 30% is pretty good as far as these go
last musk
Depends entirely on the stat spread of the regional greninja tbh
fading stratus
make the move's accuracy 80 
hasty anchor
Man, making custom moves and giving all these considerations is harder than I thought.
kind vortex
ah yes, guninja
hasty anchor
And yeah, I feel accuracy is a bit of a cop-out on a lot of these
kind vortex
Man, making custom moves and giving all these considerations is harder than I th...
and this is before considering abilities and stat spreads and move distribution
which is why i tend to ignore random people on the internet when they start going on about game freak's balancing decisions
like sure, they've done some questionable shit
but i've seen all sorts of fan stuff that's just bad
hasty anchor
There's all kinds of factors in spot, yeah. I definitely trust game devs with a good few games under their belt than I trust myself, who doesn't even know anything about some of the process in making mechanics work
kind vortex
anyway, re:venom cutter i'm okay with it being a bit more powerful than poison fang and having those effects, but distribution should be extremely limited in kind
hasty anchor
But I still try my best to give it a go and see how well I can make something work.
kind vortex
like don't let random sharpness mons get it for example
keep it unique to your greninja
hasty anchor
Yeah, it's definitely not going on anything else, and Greninja isn't gonna have Sharpness
We're not having another Hisuian Samurott situation
fading stratus
I'd be fine with it being exclusive move if it didnt have another secondary eff tbh
like reduce spa atk is still pretty strong
as a secondary eff
kind vortex
the other effect is conditional tbf
hasty anchor
It's kinda like Infernal Parade, in a way
kind vortex
i'd probably limit it to the mon being poisoned tho
hasty anchor
Righto
kind vortex
doesn't make flavor sense for it to work on paralyzed mons or whatever

Ah hell the name of the move was meant to be pinning strike
Can y'all let me know what you think of this?
hasty anchor
Pretty cool. I like the idea, given there are species of wasp that don't fly.
last musk
Pretty cool. I like the idea, given there are species of wasp that don't fly.
The original idea behind it was it was going to stick it's needles into the ground and shake it, but one it felt too much like earthquake (especially with how unsure I'd go about balancing it) and two it felt like it was standing on too many different mons toes
fading stratus
this is like the third time this week I've seen regional beedrill
why are people so obsessed with making a beedrill regional
also make the ability as "the pokemon's moves ignore typing and abilities"

and we are probably not gonna get a ranked mode until the next pack in 6 weeks most according to the leaks
vagrant steppe
Yeah, I just don't have enough good cards to build anything crazy rn
polar osprey
which is a mini pack containing staples
most likely including great and/or ultra balls

polar osprey
7 water energies in a row with dragonite
saw it happening live on stream

alternating energies would be much better yes

That's why pikachu is good
Put pikachu in the lead, slap 3 random eletric types in the bench and start blasting

you put the opponent on a clock with their shitty bricky pile

it's not about it being worth it

So the game keeps track of what language your cards are
Will probably carry over from trading

I got a spanish card from wonder picking from you
Or was it portuguese? It doesn't say what language...
polar osprey
ok that's actually insanely cool
normal cave
Shame I can't give ny'all hebrew cards
Maybe different language cards will trade for more value? Honestly excited for upcoming trading.
Also I got this off the first Charizard pack I opened.
polar osprey
you are guaranteed an ex or above card on your first pack
normal cave
Oooooh
polar osprey
still nice you got one of the best ones
normal cave
Til, v cool
hasty anchor
Amusingly this Charizard isn't as absurd as most Charizard cards tend to be
Still does the whole deal with throwing out energy, but it doesn't completely drain all that energy just to do something
normal cave
The most important thing about it is that it's a charizard and an ex
Makes it top tier trade bait
The fact that it's a good card also helps a lot
sonic inlet
I got a spanish card from wonder picking from you
They get translated back to your language sadly
polar osprey
I wouldn't trade that tho
normal cave
They get translated back to your language sadly
polar osprey
zard is the deck with the most potential as the game gets more support
normal cave
Ah
normal cave
Aight, I can keep zard
200 damage attack go brr
Also helps that mewtwo can't one-shot it even with giovanni
Mewtwo's been absolutely dumpstering my Articuno. They always have Mewtwo Gardevoir on curve plus another beater
normal cave
Yeah giovanni is... not great
polar osprey
he is dogshit
people are just playing him as filler
mewtwo decks should just be on jinx or whatever instead
polar osprey
sabrina is broken as fuck
best card in the game rn
forcing benchs is how you steamroll
polar osprey
I wouldn't craft it Idt
it's not mandatory for any deck to work
just keep pulling

mewtwo decks should just be on jinx or whatever instead
Meowth is also decent

just some good basic really

Too bad it's tiny, but it's F2P

sonic inlet
Meowth also helps in drawing into gardevoir/kirlia ASAP

mewtwo can get giga fucked in early game push

Mewtwo really just dies if it doesn't see both garde and mewtwo in 3 turns
normal cave
Mewtwo really just dies if it doesn't see both garde and mewtwo in 3 turns
...that happens?
sonic inlet
You need gardevoir to fuel him
sonic inlet
Yeah it's super inconsistent
normal cave
More consistent than my deck
sonic inlet
I just play water slop/pikachu with 1 copy rn
normal cave
I'm on articuno donk
sonic inlet
But I can't get frogadier
normal cave
Soon greninja over either of the two
normal cave
it's out of my rotation by now
Still share it
sonic inlet
Greninja is great, snipes the mons in the back
golden lance
I made 4
normal cave
I can't send you likes if you don't make more binders
golden lance
I just dont have stuff to flex
normal cave
I just dont have stuff to flex
Flex weedle
golden lance
Also do likes apply per binder?
normal cave
Meme binders are good too
polar osprey
articuno ex cheese is pretty solid and cheap
the starmie variant is just better tho
but needs 4 exes
golden lance
No misty tho
For some reason my trainer pulls are non existant
2 giovanni 1 koga 0 of everything else
polar osprey
I have a full art koga with nothing to use it with
at least it unlocked the dark rental deck
bcs I have fuck all for darks for the missions
normal cave
Build weezing stall
normal cave
Ye, not too bad
normal cave
Mewtwo has some good mons
polar osprey
the best value pack overall is the zard one
golden lance
Yea shame i'm not pulling any of them
polar osprey
but I wanted to build psychic slop
normal cave
I wanted to build cuno donk
polar osprey
but then the game gave me
literally
9 mewtwos ex
all the rarities
and not a single dnite
2 garde
golden lance
The game gave me 5 single prize gengars
normal cave
I pulled 2 dnite 2 tini and 1 dragonair
normal cave
Cant even play dnite because i only have 1 nair
golden lance
My garde line is still 2-1-1
normal cave
Gonna have to craft nair
polar osprey
I had to craft kirlia
golden lance
Does pvp even give you anything?
polar osprey
I'm also spamming wonder picks with dnites
and nothing
the game REALLY doesn't want me to play dnite
golden lance
Bro istg wonder picks are rigged
polar osprey
I got 2 full art charmanders from them
so it's fine
got my 2nd sabrina finally
deck is almost complete
golden lance
Got a second cuno ex
polar osprey
2 misty
misty is the reason water shit works
btw choccy
if you play articuno cheese play the red card
your opponent won't want to bench multiple mons so you will be able to consistently get value out of it
golden lance
Got it
polar osprey
mewtwo deck done
finally
fully optimized mewtwo deck in less than 24 hours and without any rerolls
gaming
@jovial cape behold the power of luck
polar osprey
I got 3 mewtwo exes in 1 pack and from there it was easy
vagrant steppe
Or 1 more Articuno
polar osprey
I want dragonite and some other water stuff in the mewtwo pack
but I'm not touching it anymore
I'm getting those from trading
I already got 9 fucking mewtwo exes and 2 articunos it would just be a bad decision to keep going
golden lance
Alright used every single hourglass from the quest, shop, and solo battles
Still dont have a playset of anything other than cuno
warm sky
secret hidden nanu backstory found by leaks
polar osprey
bro people are spite scooping when they see the gold mewtwo
golden lance
Considering throwing myself off a volcano
polar osprey
sooooo many articunos
probably bcs it's the most budget deck
I barely see any red buttons tho
and it's so good into my mu
hasty anchor
I really thought discussion on this game would mostly be able collecting but turns out there's a lot of deckmaking and battles too.
mighty storm
The list I'm gonna run once I get the alien star fren and Misty
hasty anchor
Unfortunately can't join the fun with the sorry state of my phone
polar osprey
just cut the borb
borb makes it so much better tho
90 attack poke with 0 retreat cost is pretty insane
you are too reliant on misty resolving otherwise
mighty storm
polar osprey
you can play greininja instead of the borb tho
hasty anchor
Also loking how a lot of artworks in the TCG are used again for Pocket
mighty storm
90 attack poke with 0 retreat cost is pretty insane
Starmie isn't borb
Borb= Articuno
polar osprey
I thought by borb you meant blue orb lol
mighty storm
but starmie isnt blue (ok the shiny is)
polar osprey
just play cuno no other mons
the game is rigged to always give you cuno then
that's an actual variant
mighty storm
btw does the johto leak suggest we will get Claire?
polar osprey
we don't know
polar osprey
golden lance
I swear to fucking god
polar osprey
timeline until the new pack
we are getting a meowth event tomorrow
whatever that means
polar osprey
no we are getting actual battle events
mighty storm
cuz if we do get her, she could be direct gyarados/seadra/dragonite support
polar osprey
Idk if meowth is one of them
but we are getting md style events
and a ladder later this year
which is gonna be before the 2nd pack
hasty anchor
Oh wow, I thought Poké Ball was just gonna be the usual flip a coin, if successful, add basic to hand
Turns out it's... better? But also worse?
polar osprey
but meowth event doesn't sound like a battle one
hasty anchor
Like you don't got to flip a coin but the chosen basic is random
mighty storm
Oh wow, I thought Poké Ball was just gonna be the usual flip a coin, if successf...
irl pokeball is any on a successful coinflip
polar osprey
I think the biggest thing they need to fix with the game
hasty anchor
Yep
mighty storm
and choice yeah
hasty anchor
It's potent but nobody wants to chance it, hence why Ultra Ball is most commonly used instead in the actual TCG
mighty storm
where as pocket version always works, but its a random basic
polar osprey
which still loses to itself
thanks to how the energy works
Idk
the current pokeball
while having no ultra or great balls in the game
makes the game too early game and basic focused
just adding the great ball would already help most decks a lot
sonic inlet
@polar osprey Dkayed is already doing giveaways lmao
golden lance
are the multi type decks
There's more than one?
polar osprey
literally dragonite choccy
golden lance
Ik
polar osprey
they are probably gonna change it to one of each energy per turn
Ngl even being able choose would be fine
cunning shard
If u don't wanna high roll with dnite u can also play kangakhan
Just wall until dnite is fueled
polar osprey
you can also play it with a koga snorlax engine
to stall
2 weezing 2 koffing 2 koga
the misty snom one wants to accelerate dnite and the koga one wants to poison stall until he is ready
frosmoth is more important than cuno
@sonic inlet he did it
@copper viper he did it
articuno should be ranked higher but dkayed is calling it 3 different decks when they are all articuno piles with different or no side engines
copper viper
polar osprey
articuno with starmie, articuno with greininja and articuno with starmie and greininja are different decks bro trust
bro is calling articuno with starmie and blastoise a different deck also
amazing
cunning shard
Category misty gamba
polar osprey
4 different decks that are just articuno with different side mons
sonic inlet
https://www.pokemonmeta.com/
My guy must really like articuno
To make so many categories
polar osprey
my opponent just got 6 heads with misty God is dead
normal cave
Rolled 0 on both mistys, dnite went full sniper mode
polar osprey
my opponent got all of your rolls
golden lance
I'm not
polar osprey
meowth drew my entire fucking deck while my opponent was setting up an energy genki dama
no kirlia
normal cave
Misty always flips tails
normal cave
meowth drew my entire fucking deck while my opponent was setting up an energy ge...
Yeah I tried dnite meowth
It was turbo ass
golden lance
Yea nah bro i'm going back to ygo
I now remember the reason why i quit ptcg in the first place
polar osprey
I'm having a ton of fun
golden lance
I can accept whiffing the pick every single time despite it being a 40% chance to hit
I can accept having a worse collection than everyone else because my pack luck is that bad
But losing every game to a 1/8 chance is just miserable
polar osprey
full art meow let's gooo
my mewtwo deck is almost blinged out
people are probably thinking I'm a whale lmao
articuno again
but I opened ralts kirlia garde oak this time
oak guide me
MEWTWO
LETS Go
normal cave
Damn, my opponents always do that
polar osprey
I deserved it for getting hit by misty into 6 heads the other game
oh btw @golden lance dragonite muk stall is like the single worst mu for mewtwo so you can have fun with that
polar osprey
you blastoise ex?
pog
that's probably the best version of misty gamba but you need 5 fucking exes for it
2 starmie 2 cuno 1 blastoise
sonic inlet
At least starmie is really good in any water pile
polar osprey
starmie is super good
I want it
it's part of the reason I'm spamming the zard pack now
90 poke dmg with no retreat cost for a stage 2 evo
sonic inlet
Free retreat cost on a guy with 90 damage with 2 energy cost
polar osprey
insanity
polar osprey
cuno is probably the single best deck in the game for progression
last musk
My choice of Gamba is zapdos "either you die or I'm losing this match"
polar osprey
you start with just it then you can upgrade to greininja
then move onto the zard pack to get 2 starmies ex
then finally add the blastoise package
mighty storm
starmie to hearing articuno is getting the credit of the deck
polar osprey
starmie toise is probably the best core for it
but I think by itself gren is better than blastoise
last musk
Do 90 damage with 2 energies with Pikachu ex? Nah, flip 4 coins and do zero damage because they're all tails for 3 energies
polar osprey
same lmao
but I'm just gunning for the starmie blastoise now
is blastoise also in the zard pack or am I gonna have to go to the pika pack after?
gonna have to tour all 3 packs for optimal misty gamba
mighty storm
is blastoise also in the zard pack or am I gonna have to go to the pika pack aft...
blastoise is in pika
polar osprey
fuck
sonic inlet
Water is just all over the place
polar osprey
yeah articuno really is the ultimate progression deck
mewtwo into zard into pika
each pack upgrades your power
sonic inlet
mighty storm
the kanto starters are in the pack associated with the starter full art selection at beginning
polar osprey
isn't red card better than giovanni here?
people don't want to bench everything vs articuno
polar osprey
it fucks me up when the opponent has it bcs I often go over 3 trying to build gardevoir
mighty storm
So bulbasaur mewtwo, squirtle pikachu, and charmander charizard
sonic inlet
Yeah
golden lance
Ok so, currently missing 1 mewtwo ex, 2 non ex mewtwo, 1 of each venu, 1 garde
Still worth to pull in the mewtwo pack yea?
polar osprey
the blastoise variant got top 16 in a 150 people tournament nice
polar osprey
Still worth to pull in the mewtwo pack yea?
only if you want to build mewtwo
if you want to build misty pile move onto the zard pack
sonic inlet
And snorlax??
polar osprey
I think zard will age the best
last musk
Honestly the moltres zard gamba ain’t bad
sonic inlet
Zard is scary
