STRAWBERRY FLIP

[fading stratus]

@pseudo goblet today I found out why kyogre is bad I was watching a regionals and dude lost the finals because he missed origin pulse

[inland gyro]

what exactly is this vgc drama with the guy calling out wolfe though heard people are supporting wolfe?

[normal cave]

Yami explained it. It's old drama that has already been dealt with and analyzed.

[inland gyro]

i know that someone called case got called out by someone called jake who wolfe supported, though where is the abuser stuff coming from for jake?

[normal cave]

This is where the discussion was

[inland gyro]

wait i'm even more confused out, how was wolfe supporting case i've only seen him denounce him?

[normal cave]

No clue, I don't know shit about the drama

@warm sky knows

[inland gyro]

yeah i'll wait, its really confusing only seeing info in random comments on threads, someone asked what the drama was in another server so was checking

[warm sky]

Dude lied

It's that simple

[inland gyro]

fair

also so he's lying that wolfe defended a transphobe... when he's a fan of nick fuentes himself?

[fading stratus]

maybe verlisify paid him

[inland gyro]

who's verlisify?

[fading stratus]

dwai

[swift jasper]

[normal cave]

A pile of garbage, wait no that's insulting to garbage.

[normal cave]

Verlis is the worst of the worst

[inland gyro]

o.o

anything not controversial to describe?

[normal cave]

A stain upon both the pokenon and furry community

A furry and a poketuber

Was huge

Fell off

Hates wolfe

[inland gyro]

oh its that guy, i've only seen the pfp because of youtube recommended whenever i'm watching pokemon stuff

[normal cave]

Black/red wolf?

Aka the generic 14 year old edgelord fursona combo

Or Hydrapple

[normal cave]

Angery

[normal cave]

Idk. They're dragon worms. I guess they are the original wezl.

Looking it up, the worms in apples are not worms, but actually moth larvae. So no, hydrapple is not wezl, it is moth.

And fly maggots too.

Worlds number one cutest indeed

[normal cave]

Furret is the cutest pokemon

[warm sky]

Personally I'm more of a Victini fan for cuteness but fair

[normal cave]

Victini is also very cute

But furret has a dex entry about hugging its babies

Cuteness is not an objective thing tho

[warm sky]

True, but we can all agree that ||the person reading this|| is cute

[normal cave]

No u

[outer eagle]

Victini's Cuteness when it hits you with Banded Sun-Boosted V-Create

[fading stratus]

but monke

[fading stratus]

when it misses

[outer eagle]

how tf

[fading stratus]

oh its 95% thought it was 90

[warm sky]

They should buff Victory Star tbh

[fading stratus]

it'll miss due to my sheer willpower

[warm sky]

Like, you can't use it in vgc anyway

[fading stratus]

what if victory star is 10% acc boost and +1 crit boost

[outer eagle]

when we already have compoundeyes

[warm sky]

Just make it Compound Eyes or give it a crit boost

[outer eagle]

victory star buffin is fine

[warm sky]

Compound Eyes for it + the partner would be sick for DOU

[normal cave]

If victory star is 95% accurate it is 50% accurate.

[warm sky]

A 10% boost is nothing

[fading stratus]

now finally my origin pulses wouldnt miss

or well

sleep powders

[outer eagle]

it still would

[fading stratus]

in dou

[pseudo goblet]

Definitely better than pokemon's overkill from Ben 10 lol

[warm sky]

V-Create is 95%

Victory Star, Victini's ability boosts the moves of its and jts partner by... 10%

Like it should be at the least 20%

[normal cave]

Oh

[warm sky]

Because a double based ability for a MYTHICAL

Is foul

[outer eagle]

20% with an increased crit rate is appropriate

it's called victory star

it should at least do that

[warm sky]

Yeah again, either give it an increased crit rate + acc, or make the acc boost just compound eyes level

[normal cave]

Just make it no guard on crack

[pseudo goblet]

Speaking of Victini, Gen 7 wonder trade back then given me a Shiny Victini

[fading stratus]

talking about mythicals surely jirachi is playable in dou right

it kinda feels neat

[outer eagle]

Play Ultra Moon for buzzwole

[fading stratus]

I'm surprised there;s no M Kang

actually is it pheromosa or wole

[pseudo goblet]

Buzzwole isn't version exclusive tho lol

also already in the family

[swift jasper]

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

oh wait yes, it is exclusive, but Moon has Pheromosa

[fading stratus]

pheromosa is peak

[fading stratus]

if it isnt peak for you you've never experienced belly drum snorlax into speed swap pheromosa

[outer eagle]

pheromosa is deoxys but not a fraud

then kyogre missed origin pulse

Maybe I should do Utra Moon for Kyogre too

[fading stratus]

yes

current kyogre is one of the best restricted

its just that

why use it over mons which have 100% accurate moves

[inland gyro]

mostly because of good stats and drizzle in 1?

[fading stratus]

it has decent matchup spread also drizzle origin pulse does damage yeah and calm mind makes it actual god

There's a difference???

[warm sky]

Plantains are an entirely different breed

[sterile verge]

Oh

[warm sky]

The regular banana is the Cavendish

Which replaced the Gros Michel

[golden lance]

Bananas are sweet and squishy, plantains are savory and slightly tougher, that's the difference

[sterile verge]

Ohhh

[sleek sky]

"slightly"
they're a starch, like potatoes
you can't eat a plantain raw

[golden lance]

You can if you're not a bitch

[warm sky]

Yeah so again, that's why I'm hoping it's not an actual normal banana in that curry

But what do I know. It's a gen 8 curry

[sterile verge]

Tbf curry can be sweet

[warm sky]

Sure but that looks like a savoury curry with the potato and meat in it

[sterile verge]

Butter and caramel chunks actually

[frosty ledge]

ohhhhh that's why the balatro jokers are named like that

[warm sky]

fun fact, you know how banana candy doesn't taste like banana? It's because it's replicating the taste of the gros michel, and not the cavendish

[frosty ledge]

TIL

not that I'd ever eat banana candy again in my life to confirm this

[warm sky]

also why in balatro you can only buy one after the other dies

@golden lance apparently they are pushing the Johto expansion back and this next pack is gonna be a would be mini pack turned into expansion

it's gonna be gen 4 themed with only 2 packs dialga and palkia and won't introduce tools or anything

apparently they didn't want to overwhelm the playerbase or something

so expect nothing but beatdown for the foreseeable future

Sovereign of the skies has the best pokemon puzzles I've seen in a while

I'm not getting past a couple of these and I'm thinking hard about them

[twin shard]

Well when you finish them you’ll feel smart

[ashen barn]

Absolutely

when

I will miss the timing on that because one leads to an item

[ashen barn]

Very reminiscent of Golden Sun, nice story, decent challenge, puzzles almost 1 to 1 with Golden Sun (my gold standard for puzzle difficulty), and extremely engaging. I'd say it's a 9/10, some puzzles were too complex and there were 2 items that, if you did everything right, could not be obtained at all.

The graphics also sent me to the moon, they were a mix of gen 5 and...gen 3, as this is a gen3 hack with a completely new region.

@golden lance

[golden lance]

Huh

[polar osprey]

holy fuck dialga reads broken

[golden lance]

When does apex rotate out again?

[polar osprey]

they changed their mind on that weeks ago

there was even an announcement

wow palkia is dogshit

[last musk]

I didn’t see dialga or palkias cards

[polar osprey]

worse mewtwo number 3

[last musk]

What do they do

[polar osprey]

same hp and 4 energy attack for 150 emwtwo has

for palkia

BUUUUT

palkias attack discards 3 energies

to do 20 damage to benched mons

dialga reads as fucked tho

dialga 2 steel energy attack attaches TWO steel energies to your benched mons

no coin toss no nothing

150 hp also

insanely broken steel support

super moltres

[last musk]

Dialgas ass

[polar osprey]

FUCKING FINALLY TOOLS

[last musk]

2 energy is too steep to ramp

Card also sucks as an attacker

[polar osprey]

it's moltres that doesn't have any rng and can pressure

this feels like when y'all said gya ex was bad

[last musk]

It can pressure about as much as a wet fart

If I see my opponent wasting 2 turns setting up dialga to set up something else for 2 energy I’m balling

[polar osprey]

that's not wasting

he is gonna generate 2 energy after 2 turns

you literally lost nothing

and then after that you are gonna be net positive

[last musk]

But you gained nothing too

And he’s not gonna last the turn after

[polar osprey]

you are gonna in the following turns

you are gonna do 150 damage in 3 turns?

[last musk]

I’m a pikachu player I do 180 in 3 turns

[polar osprey]

this is worse than arguing with md players

do whatever

[last musk]

I'm just saying spending 3 turns to go net positive on a card is an insane ask

[polar osprey]

that's literally every stage 2 deck rn

except dialga has A LOT less rng attached to it

but again I won't argue anymore

[normal cave]

New set

Is this a mini set or full set?

[polar osprey]

full

only 2 packs

[normal cave]

So this is the new set?

[polar osprey]

if it has the same amount of cards as A1 it's gonna be a lot harder to get the cards you want to

ye

bcs the 200something cards are gonna be divided in 2 sets over 3

[normal cave]

Well, I have like 780 hourglasses

[polar osprey]

we are getting tools

[last musk]

Pachirisu has promise

[normal cave]

But that'd mean I need to open pocket again

[last musk]

I'm keeping an eye on it

At it's peak it could be Pikachu with even less setup

[normal cave]

I haven't touched pocket in days

[last musk]

Just needs a poke tool that gives +10 damage

[pseudo goblet]

I was gone for barely 30 mins, and stuff got wild real quick

[normal cave]

Not even for daily packs

[polar osprey]

daily packs are also kinda useless for me also

I won't have enough dust for any full arts I want and I already have every normal card I want

I'm pulling just bcs at this point

[last musk]

Higher rarities ig

Still need the celebi immersive but I'm not gonna go chasing for that

[normal cave]

Oh fuck it only takes 2 attacks to fully charge a melmetal

[polar osprey]

yeah

if we get more steel support dialga is gonna be the next meta

[pseudo goblet]

Trade next monday

[normal cave]

Melmetal was already strong, just waaaaaay too slow

[polar osprey]

dialga is better moltress in like

every way

unless you are goated and hit 3s with moltres every time

[normal cave]

It also pokes on top of the energy setup

[polar osprey]

has more bulk

[normal cave]

So puts them in melmetal range

[polar osprey]

palkia is ASS

probably bcs of misty fear or something

[last musk]

That we do agree on

Palkia is just dog shit

[pseudo goblet]

For once, Origin form werent the topic starter

[normal cave]

Palkia's main advantage is its water type. It's kinda just a worse gyattrados

[pseudo goblet]

Hang on I need to see the cards

[polar osprey]

it's a worse mewtwo in every way shape and form

[last musk]

I need to see what garchomp ex does

[polar osprey]

even has the same kind of attack except it discards THREE energy

[last musk]

If it gets one

I hope it does

[polar osprey]

idt we are

[last musk]

Damn

[polar osprey]

cynthia has normal chomp synergy

[last musk]

It's probably gonna be starters, then we got dialga palkia and pachirisu, what would be other good choices

[pseudo goblet]

Tf Palkia

[last musk]

Lucario?

[normal cave]

Man dialga and cynthia are the only two cards that stand out to me

[last musk]

Not pachirisu?

[pseudo goblet]

Where Furret

[normal cave]

Pachi is copy 3-4 of pika for pika. It's good, but not interesting.

[polar osprey]

actually

pachi is only good if tools are good

[normal cave]

It makes the best deck even more consistent

[normal cave]

True

[polar osprey]

you aren't gonna play dogshit to enable pachi

but I'm confident we are getting a tool that's like

+10 or 20 damage to ex mons

that's gonna be a staple in everything

[last musk]

Pachi does 80 damage with 2 cards less than Pikachu but the issue is the lack of searchers for items

Not sure how it's gonna be

[polar osprey]

if we get 2 good tools that's fine

or even a good and a mid tool

like +10 to exes and +10 when you are behind prizes

[last musk]

Honestly I'd probably run it with 2 mid tools

[polar osprey]

so you play 2-1

[normal cave]

Pachi with good tools makes pika run 6 total exs

[pseudo goblet]

Feels like half of the meta will still be playing Fire decks lmao

[polar osprey]

giranita is another ex btw 1000%

if that's not the mini

if I had to guess mini is gonna be arceus

[normal cave]

I love giratina so that's ok

Cresselia got shafted

[polar osprey]

she could still get ex

[last musk]

Darkrai and cresselia could be a good mini set

[polar osprey]

we are probably also getting the lake trio as exes

[pseudo goblet]

Heatran and Regigigas

[normal cave]

Ew I hate those

[polar osprey]

more psychic support pog

[pseudo goblet]

Mmmm… Manaphy and Phione

[normal cave]

So we got gen 4 over gen 2?

[polar osprey]

ye

that's probably why gen 2 was so good it was never meant to be release now

the leaker probably got confused

Chat, Headbutt dino or Shield dino

[ashen barn]

Depending if there are good Garchomp cards and good togekiss cards, Cynthia MIGHT be busted

It all rides on the quality of said cards tho
And the evo stages, imagine a stage 2 evo for them...that doesn't work well enough

Dialga is beyond broken tho

All we need is literally something that is Melmetal or better

A bit slower moltres but better on average
Palkia is ass, Jesus Christ. You need misty every turn just to maybe make it work.

WATER KEEPS WINNING

[golden lance]

Oh wow

Stardust is still useless post trading

Lets go?

[normal cave]

This card is a worse Gyarados

It's a worse Mewtwo

It's just... not great.

[mighty storm]

its mewtwo but with access to Misty

and it couldve been worst, they could've made it dragon

[normal cave]

But with 1 extra energy discard, 1 extra energy needed, no constant energy like Garde, and it has a weaker second attack.

30 for 1 energy is p dece, but not enough to justify its weaker second attack.

[mighty storm]

heck yeah the pokemon equivalent to equip spells

[golden lance]

Ok chat

Place your bets

[normal cave]

Pachi is good, depending on the quality of tools

[golden lance]

What will the tools do?

Remember, they are directly competing with gio and blue

And those are supporters

Whats the Toku villainess form of her name again lol

Oh jesus yall did message rain again okay

[normal cave]

Yeah that's why we were shitting on it

If it discarded 2 it'd be fine

[golden lance]

Also hot take

I think pachi is gonna suck ass

[sterile verge]

PFTTTT

[normal cave]

Pachi is like

Copy 3-4 of Pika

[golden lance]

Only if you see a tool

[normal cave]

If Pika needed more consistency it's there

[golden lance]

Which yknow

[normal cave]

Only if you see a tool ye. It's worse than pika.

[golden lance]

You might as well play a stage 1 by that point

[normal cave]

You probs still run it as a big electric basic

40 for 2 energy is fine

[golden lance]

How many hp does it have again?

[pseudo goblet]

Okay I caught up

[normal cave]

No clue, but 1 retreat cost.

[golden lance]

Brooooooooo

[mighty storm]

Who knows maybe Palkia and Dialga will get tools

[golden lance]

Why do they do this?

[normal cave]

It's probably bigger than all other filler basics

[golden lance]

Wait...

I figured it out

The best tool in the set

[normal cave]

If we get Float Stone then Pika breaks again

[golden lance]

Like, damage modifiers will probably all be conditional because giovanni is a supporter and also the shittiest thing ever

So hear me out

[sterile verge]

Belba iirc?

[golden lance]

Since pachi is the main selling point for tools

The best one is gonna be sitrus berry

[pseudo goblet]

few sounds away from Beroba lmao

[golden lance]

Also i pray for garchomp

[pseudo goblet]

Bellelba apparently

[golden lance]

If it needs a +50 damage boost to hit relevant things i'm concerned for how bad they'll make its attacks be

[normal cave]

Bro its a stage 2

[golden lance]

Yea i think they'll make it like

3-4 energy 90 damage and some secondary effect

[normal cave]

Give it a sweeping move like dnite

[golden lance]

Also hey

Gen 4 set without a single dragon

Love to see it

[normal cave]

They did not reveal chomp yet

[golden lance]

Hmm

Thinking about it

This makes me question

What energy would you run in Cynthia.dek?

Dragon chomp usually uses water and fighting to attack

[normal cave]

Purple

[golden lance]

So maybe toge will be colorless?

[normal cave]

If we need 2 energy the deck becomes unviable

[golden lance]

So yea

[mighty storm]

flying is represented by colorless

[normal cave]

Hell it's already unviable with stage 2s

[golden lance]

My guess is ground chomp, flying toge

[pseudo goblet]

Heh, Pocket really says Kanto gym leaders are more popular than E4, and Sinnoh Champion is more popular than the rest atm

[golden lance]

MULTIPLE stage 2s

[golden lance]

I mean they're not wrong

[normal cave]

Everyone loves cynthia tbf

[golden lance]

People usually forget the other 3 besides lance

[normal cave]

She is one of the best Pokemon NPCs ever

[pseudo goblet]

Ig we did get Blue but mmmmm

[mighty storm]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-cynthia-cynthia-pokemon-garchomp-pokemon-diamond-gif-23373933

[golden lance]

Not champ coat blue tho

[pseudo goblet]

Ig Red got sorted into Johto set

[mighty storm]

note doesnt say ex

[golden lance]

But yea i think this is the most likely scenario

Honestly, sucks that cynthia only boosts these 2

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/cynthia-miku-spiritomb-roserade-garchomp-gif-325267731264509180

[golden lance]

She also used lucario, which would boost garchomp in the deck (if it is a fighting type)

[pseudo goblet]

Roserade

[fading stratus]

roserade is the best mon in cynthia;s team kidda

dont be a hater

[normal cave]

Yeah, they picked the worst ones for her to boost.

[pseudo goblet]

didn't someone here say they were traumatize by Roserade

[golden lance]

If she just mentioned every mon on her team you could do a dark type spiritomb roserade build

[normal cave]

Yeah

[golden lance]

Which would be cool to see

Our current dark decks are kinda mid

[mighty storm]

Her having a milotic means she likely sat down fishing for hours trying to find the rare fish

[golden lance]

Or yknow

Traded for it

[pseudo goblet]

Nah lol

[golden lance]

Anime and games follow different canon

[pseudo goblet]

The real question is, how she evolve it

[mighty storm]

I choose to believe the anime and video game versions follow how she finds the feesh here

[fading stratus]

fed it one too many pokeblocks

[mighty storm]

Or Poffins

[sterile verge]

[warm sky]

I wanted to make fun of you, but I ain't making that joke when you ain't an adult

[pseudo goblet]

reminds me the first time I talk to Serena was also checking her age

[sterile verge]

Do it

I've heard worse and I don't care

Maybe in dms though

[warm sky]

Sorry, personal boundaries

[sterile verge]

smh this isn't ygo chat

no link (pocket)monsters allowed

[pseudo goblet]

+2

[fading stratus]

-2

[polar osprey]

@golden lance

since no one shared

oh I see it

these cards besides dialga seem all turbo ass

like bordering on unplayable

bcs they keep doubling down on inconsistent strats

it seems the devs aren't aware that their own game has a massive consistency issue

pika dominance forever

[ashen barn]

Access to Misty doesn't even matter here...it's 30, 30, 30, 150+20x? then 30 again.
Compared to mewtwo gardevoir, where it's 50, 150, 150...yeah, no

It's also in the weird spot shared with Blastoise

Where its best attack needs a lot to work and it's just not good enough to use a misty on, given starmie ex, articuno ex, and gyarados ex

[polar osprey]

the community has 0 game sense

they are hyping up palkia and cynthia

palkia is worse than every other water ex

[ashen barn]

Cynthia tbh rides on whether or not there are good mons associated with it

[polar osprey]

it doesn't

[ashen barn]

Take brock before MI golem

Same scenario, basically

[polar osprey]

the only reason blaine works is bcs it's a stage 1 deck

it being stage 2 means it can't prize trade with exs fast enough

doa

[ashen barn]

Yes, then there's Golem, which does see some usage, and has brock

[polar osprey]

brock is an acceleration tool

cynthia isn't

[ashen barn]

And before the better golem of MI, brock was a joke

[ashen barn]

Again, it all rides on the cards themselves

[polar osprey]

it rides on this set having rare candy

for it to be decent

or breeder

[ashen barn]

Yeah

[polar osprey]

it won't have

they want the game to be inconsistent

for whatever reason

[normal cave]

[ashen barn]

Don't remind me...

[normal cave]

Oshawott Zelda and Emboar Ganon

Celebi coinflipping its way from a sure win to a loss was something
