[umbral meteor]

3 possibly mfs and rest more pfs

[tardy fiber]

Waiting for poma day new grids to shave off some of my sync orbs

Oh and elesa joltik

[lean mango]

I've gotten everybody I wanted gridded so my stack has been piling

[umbral meteor]

I gridded everyone i have

200 units

im still at 99999 orbs

[tardy fiber]

I just grid every units i have, i didn't know when i will use them...all 206 of them

[tough oriole]

I tried to grid most people i find useful but i now have a bunch of useless strikes that i refuse to grid unless there’s an emegency

I don’t have support candy for joltik

[lunar topaz]

I recevmrkt wasted 2 on BPMorty before lodge pairs existed so now I can’t 3/5 lodge blue

[lean mango]

When I eventually get LMarnie I'm totally spending all my candies on Toxicroak

[tardy fiber]

I can only make lodge elesa 2/5 because i spent candies to 5/5 bp pairs before

[lean mango]

Toxicroak my beloved

[tough oriole]

L Marnie lmao

[lunar topaz]

Same… lel

[tardy fiber]

I thought they shafted bp stuffs

[tough oriole]

Oh yea i forgor, i got 20 support coins today

[tardy fiber]

Suddenly anniv add few more pairs

[lunar topaz]

Oo nice

[tough oriole]

Apparently i also have 20 tech coins lmao

[lean mango]

The candies I got rn

[tardy fiber]

I gonna form support candy next month, it will go to Nita if no new support faves come out

[tough oriole]

I can’t decide whether to candy celesteela, a mega fav that i don’t use often, or latios, a fav that i use relatively often

[tardy fiber]

I used celesteela a lot because i only have 5 support faves that can

[tough oriole]

morty, kris, jasmine, brendan, dawn?

[tardy fiber]

Yep

Also her def kinda great after i gave her sentry entry 2

[tough oriole]

||They’re literally right next to each other on my ex sync pair list lmao||

[tardy fiber]

Fixed her dying of rock slide

Also i doesn't need to chase support EX much...many of my striker and tech faves can benefit from syncing first, so in their case i put them with bp master units

[tough oriole]

I didn’t notice, reset just happened lol

[tardy fiber]

Fat BV gems lets goo

2.3k gems

[tough oriole]

Oh decisive battle n key is here

[summer goblet]

Well that’s the most active thread I’ve seen so far and I think i lose a bit of brain cell over it

Yeah go for it, as long as you have enough to pity twice over, it should be fine as long as you don’t regret it. Though, if you want, prehaps waiting till datamine will be a wise decision to plan ahead abit and see how it goes

[cunning swan]

The worse part is, I really ||want to pull because I want Lucas||

[thorny pelican]

What's your gem count?

[cunning swan]

63k? Give or take

I'll have enough for two pities by the end of the month

[thorny pelican]

Well I guess a question to ask is - are there any upcoming seasons, themes, banners, or characters you're expecting to be pressured by for the next three months?

[lean mango]

Man temptation sucks

[cunning swan]

December might spook me with an interesting master fair but I don't care about seasonals unless there's a big favorite (and my big favorites have a very low chance of getting seasonals lol)

[thorny pelican]

Look a bit beyond December

[cunning swan]

So I guess the only banners that might tempt me would be a random MF or half anni (unlikely)

[thorny pelican]

January and February are going to be massive

[umbral meteor]

feb is not that massive

just casual 4 limiteds

[lean mango]

I gotta really wait for datamine

[umbral meteor]

if you dc abt seasonals tho

[thorny pelican]

Anniversary 3.5 is not a big deal yeah I get that

[umbral meteor]

Its mfs and pfs lect

[cunning swan]

When are we expecting the next villain arc again? I can't really figure out how often VA happens lol

[umbral meteor]

well anni is march datamine

i meant feb

[umbral meteor]

mid january

shuld be

[cunning swan]

That's earlier than I thought, damn

[thorny pelican]

Anniversary happens Feb 27th so I'm just going by calendar timeline here

[umbral meteor]

expected to be kalos

[thorny pelican]

I know PoMa operates on a strange inter-dimensional off-calendar timeline

on account of Dialga and all

[umbral meteor]

I think its better to go by update version tho since thats what ppl would wait for but yeah then feb is massive if you count anniv also

[thorny pelican]

[cunning swan]

I barely care about any Kalos characters not named Calem

[umbral meteor]

if you care abt calem you shuld save tho

[cunning swan]

And this is just because I love male protags lol (but I don't go out of my way candying the regular calem)

[umbral meteor]

Or atleast a spare pity ready

[cunning swan]

Yeah, by the end of this month I should have 2 pities

Worst case scenario is I pity Lucas from the eevee day but I'll still have another pity ready nonetheless

[umbral meteor]

but anw calem will probably last till feb28 if the arc is kalos and if you get 73k by end nov you will probably have 163k by end feb

[thorny pelican]

You can expect to move forward with the following expectations;

• At minimum, you can realistically expect 25,000 per month
• End-of-year banners are likely going to be tempting
• January could hold a Kalos VA
• Major concern is end of February

[umbral meteor]

or around 160k

actually major concern is mid march

looking @ last year

[thorny pelican]

What happens in March again?

[cunning swan]

Agreed

[lean mango]

What is to be expected for next month?

[cunning swan]

Random zerena drop

[umbral meteor]

the anni itself is march datamine and so is the master fair

[cunning swan]

If they bring another white day banner for mid march I'm gonna lose it, I'm weak to those

[umbral meteor]

1 or 2 new mfs + 2 hol22 seasonals + 1 new lodge? + 1 or 0 new PFs can be expected imo

[thorny pelican]

New Holiday Banners (2)
Holiday Rerun Banners (6)
Potential new Gen Pool addition (1)
Potential new Masterfair (1)
End-of-Year Rerun Banners (???)
"New" New Years Banner (2)
New Years Rerun Banners (4)
(Likely) Kalos VA Pokefair (2)
(Likely) Kalos VA Masterfair (1)
New Palentines Banners (2)
Palentines Rerun Banners (4)
Anniversary 3.5 Units (2)

This

[maiden kayak]

please for the love of god

do not spend and support

[cunning swan]

[maiden kayak]

that eevee banner

[lean mango]

Hmmm

[maiden kayak]

u are feeding that laziness of the devs

[umbral meteor]

just expect 16 limiteds from end nov - end march nothing complicated

new*

[lean mango]

I have no plans with the holiday rerun banner so crossing that out

[cunning swan]

I hate that new banner system but I love all 3 featured pairs Lucas especially

[thorny pelican]

See this is why it's confusing for me to operate off of update based timelines

March isn't in march it's in february which is also the end of february which doesn't include the anniversary which happens on the 27th technically since the game started on August 27th which by definition then means the anniversary is in September meaning time is a lie

[umbral meteor]

why dont you operate by version update

[lean mango]

Colress is such weird mix to me being a spotlight

[thorny pelican]

DeNA please fix your update schedules and operate towards actual monthly timelines

[umbral meteor]

3.5 anni is v 2.30

just go by that lol

its not complicated

[thorny pelican]

Okay when was v 2.13?

[umbral meteor]

Dont operate by months

[umbral meteor]

oct 2021

[thorny pelican]

And how was I supposed to know that?

[umbral meteor]

just like how are you supposed to know the months

lol

its just easier

if you mention months

its way complicated

coz technically ss may was in july 2022 but she was in august datamine being v 2.23

[thorny pelican]

all I'm hearing is "get gud scrub" at meta chromatic interpretation

I can barely plan my breakfast in my day and it took me years to understand calendars

Chromatic... that's color

Chronatic?

[umbral meteor]

well its to make mentioning easier lol im just reccomending

[thorny pelican]

w/e

[umbral meteor]

easiest way to do it is remember the current version

which is 2.26

and just subtract 13 months if you wanna reach v 2.13

nov 2022 - 13 months = oct 2021

[thorny pelican]

I just try to operate how an average player would see it.

"Wow how many gems did we earn for the anniversary? Oh, anniversary was in August? Wow that's a lot of gems."

[umbral meteor]

and technically 90% of anniv is september

[thorny pelican]

Technically the anniversary is the "run up to" "the during" and "the after"

so idk

these are weird rules

is all I'm saying

[umbral meteor]

well either way the most accurate way is to refer by version numbers

[thorny pelican]

confuses the shit outta people

[umbral meteor]

since thats what the devs give us

and thats what people also refer as

you will hear people saying im waiting for "december datamine units"

even if we get a mf end november it will be counted as a december unit for the sake of it

so its better to refer acc to that imo

[tardy fiber]

Talking about this i remembered bunch of new players was shocked that the month after doesn't have as much gems as anniv

[umbral meteor]

april was p good altho 15k less than anniv

and by april i just mean april datamine

[upbeat lotus]

6k gems reached my next goal is 9k gems

[summer goblet]

Still pondering whether I should finally start using my f2p gems for SS Hilda should I not grab her through dallies by datamine

On the one hand, i can grab my fav now and call it a day at the risk of pity

On the other hand, something great will drop for the next 2 months like 2 MF and also having a goal to reach 400k by Feb

[tardy fiber]

I thought you like dailies

[summer goblet]

Only if i failed

To grab her

I’m getting dead dallie on Hilda for the past 20 days

[summer goblet]

I will always use dallies

[tardy fiber]

Already 2k paid gems

[summer goblet]

Yep something like that

[umbral meteor]

ye new 1mf+1pf+2seasonals is p likely for both dec/jan each

[summer goblet]

Wanna be prepared for it

[tardy fiber]

I need to save some gems for half anni, they do release some cool pairs on half anni

[summer goblet]

Also could contain an ice zone unit so i can finally get Ice Steven and Hala to the next level

Yes half anni do have cool pairs

[umbral meteor]

every anniv does anw

[summer goblet]

Hope they rerun last year anni

I want Skyla

[tardy fiber]

I skipped this anniv MF units and only grab scrosa

[umbral meteor]

maybe as select

[summer goblet]

Hopefully

I been carefully planning this ahead till March

[umbral meteor]

plan for 16 new limiteds from end nov - end mar

[summer goblet]

I focus on MF and Good PF

Seasonal depends

[umbral meteor]

palentines is also good

[summer goblet]

If its top fav

[tardy fiber]

Hope not all 16 are legendaries/mythicals/UBs

[summer goblet]

Or great utility kit

[umbral meteor]

thats impossible anw

[tardy fiber]

Neat

[umbral meteor]

palentines is generally peak seasonals yeah

[summer goblet]

Maybe Brock with Rock zone will come

[umbral meteor]

doubt

[summer goblet]

Worth a try

Pal time is really good

[tardy fiber]

Last time i chase meta for zones is palmarnie... nowadays the only zone units that i appreciate to have is when it is attached to a fave

[umbral meteor]

we are almost over with them anw

[summer goblet]

Ok maybe i don’t need ice zone

Ss Hilbert takes care of everything

Ice rebuff is just as good as zone

[umbral meteor]

as powerful

but not as good

[summer goblet]

Maybe

[umbral meteor]

also as powerful only if your hilbert is 5/5

[lean mango]

Get ready for Glacia Regice with Ice zone

[summer goblet]

Yeah i guess so if i wanted that

[tardy fiber]

I like rebuff, with it i can hopium that a fave with rebuff will appear to replace non faves zone units

[umbral meteor]

understood - steven registeel

[tardy fiber]

I will grab both regis

Thanks DeNa

[summer goblet]

How bout the 2 Galar regis

[tardy fiber]

Same as well

[summer goblet]

Those are good

[tardy fiber]

I even gonna grab phione

[summer goblet]

Its a mythical right

[umbral meteor]

they also have signature moves

yes

[tardy fiber]

Yep

[summer goblet]

A frogotten mythical

[umbral meteor]

yes

[tardy fiber]

Offspring of a mythical so a mythical as well

[summer goblet]

I only remember Manaphy

[tardy fiber]

Manaphy wallace when

[lean mango]

Yaassss

[umbral meteor]

never

[summer goblet]

No go for May and Manaphy

[tardy fiber]

[summer goblet]

It sells

[tardy fiber]

Oh I don't mind

[summer goblet]

And it makes sense

In the anime

[tardy fiber]

We can use same trainer team on December anyway

[lean mango]

Time for Wallace and Phione

[summer goblet]

Yep can’t wait

[tardy fiber]

And i doesn't even see the trainers that much, i only see pokemons

[summer goblet]

True, don’t tell Aqua about it

Fav can be anything you want

[tardy fiber]

I won't mind even if we got 10 Lillies, if she is with a fave i grab...if normal pokemon, i skip, easy

[summer goblet]

Yeah

[lean mango]

Me with Proton but he has a Golbat so I'm whaling

[summer goblet]

Fair

[tardy fiber]

Aqua already knows i collected legendaries, mythicals, UBs...aqua will only scold me if i pull units not in that category

[oak crest]

my favs are all mons... i dont really have favs on trainer altho i absolutely dislike Paulo

[summer goblet]

Make sense

[umbral meteor]

i only have one fav trainer and no fav mons

[lean mango]

I have 3 categories of faves: characters, Poison units, and Zubat line

[tardy fiber]

If i see trainer and outfit, i would already skipped hleon...but i wont let his goofy santa outfit to stop me from getting Calyrex

[lean mango]

My Poison collection is growing slowly

[summer goblet]

Either i get no criticism or I get all the criticism from my methodology

[tardy fiber]

I dislike Hleon outfit and ScGuzma EX outfit color. For other trainers in my faves collection, i didn't mind their appearances

[summer goblet]

Speaking of which i’m gonna go 3/5 him soon

[lean mango]

Opinion on Anni steven's outfit

[tardy fiber]

Neat, he is really good when 3/5...if not Ghetsis will outdamage him

[summer goblet]

Best outfit ever

[summer goblet]

True, i’m doing it for the ice horse calyrex

[tardy fiber]

I like that his white with black trim outline EX theme fits with maxie and archie EX outfit both with white and red/blue trim outline

[lean mango]

Anni Steven has mad drip

[summer goblet]

Steven has all the best drips

For the male character

[tardy fiber]

Finally 3/5 that black snek after a year plus

[lean mango]

All of his outfits are

I love his Summer alt

[summer goblet]

Same

[tardy fiber]

Will 3/5 annilillie when i form my strike candy

[umbral meteor]

N tho

[tardy fiber]

Then i got all anni MF 2021 3/5 finally

[summer goblet]

Nice

[lean mango]

With N the only outfit that I absolutely love is his anni outfit

[summer goblet]

Yeah i say he in contention

[lean mango]

The rest are "I like it"

[umbral meteor]

ah

steven i dislike all outfits except anni and summer

anni and summer are superb

[summer goblet]

I say Steven, N, and Morty have best drips

[umbral meteor]

the ss and OG tho eh

[lean mango]

SSSteven outfit

[tardy fiber]

I like ssN outfit, its like his outfit if he stays as king of team plasma after defeating the protags

[lean mango]

Morty has supreme drip

[umbral meteor]

yeah

[lean mango]

His Fall outfit is MMMMMM

I love it so much

[summer goblet]

Yep

[tardy fiber]

More morty alts when?

[lean mango]

Insert take my money

[umbral meteor]

soon™

[tardy fiber]

Still waiting for his Gengar

[summer goblet]

Can I at least ask for my fav yet

[lean mango]

Thing is with my top fav list is that literally 2 of the characters take 50% of my income

That is Morty and Steven

[spare swift]

Can we expect falkner with pidgeotto as lodge pair?

[lean mango]

Pidgey

[umbral meteor]

maybe

[tardy fiber]

Prepare for drip lysandre on kalos VA

[umbral meteor]

if they ever wanna add falkner in lodge

[lean mango]

He better drip

[umbral meteor]

for no clue what reason

[summer goblet]

i want Grininja

[umbral meteor]

inb4 no alt

[summer goblet]

He is not in the game

Also, Lysander and mega Gyrados please

[lean mango]

I want him to have a stunning outfit

[umbral meteor]

misty

[lean mango]

Eusine when™

[summer goblet]

How bout both

[tardy fiber]

Give Lysandre a shiny mega gyarados

[summer goblet]

So dena doesn’t run out of ideas

Fast

[umbral meteor]

they will never run out of ideas

[summer goblet]

Yeah true

[lean mango]

I kinda hope they add Lysandre to lodge

it would be funny

Give the man a Litleo

[summer goblet]

They have the Paldea charcters to fill next year

[umbral meteor]

they alr have 70 characters not in game excluding paldea

[summer goblet]

Oof right

Like still missing Wattson still

[lean mango]

And one of those is Eusine

[summer goblet]

Wonder Anabel be MF?

That would be lid

[umbral meteor]

on average they will manage to add 100 new characters ever since launch by 4th anniv ( excluding the npcs and any form of alt and the launch batch )

[spare swift]

Giovanni and mega kangaskhan

[umbral meteor]

probably spotlight or pokefair

[summer goblet]

Oof

Not popular enough I suppose

Anabel and Raikou it is

[tardy fiber]

Still waiting for 2 more chatelaines

[umbral meteor]

most likely

[umbral meteor]

the most popular ones are alr in game remaining ones are mostly gonna be spotlights except very few being pokefairs and basically none master fairs

[tardy fiber]

Anabel will be interesting, will we get SM anabel or OG anabel...or both existing in same timeline

[summer goblet]

Right

[umbral meteor]

so if 70 left after 4th anni and around +30 from paldea if we get new characters at same rate they can carry until 8th anni still anw and then we will have gen10

[umbral meteor]

if we get SM then OG would be classic if we directly get OG then we wont get SM probably

[summer goblet]

Without Paldea charcters of couse

[umbral meteor]

yeah

[summer goblet]

And add 4 years later till gen 10

[umbral meteor]

^

[summer goblet]

Pokemon Masters will never run out

[summer goblet]

True

[umbral meteor]

obviously it wont end because they "ran out of ideas" lmao it will just end in general like other gachas do

[summer goblet]

EoS

Dun dun dun

[umbral meteor]

considering its the biggest franchise it can easily go on until 8th-10th anni or smth anw

[summer goblet]

Yeah def

Let’s pray for a long future

[umbral meteor]

[summer goblet]

And have all the characters included by the time EoS begins

[umbral meteor]

wonder how will they recycle box legends

for now they probably can with buddy signature moves + shinies

[summer goblet]

Pretty much

All the left is White Kyrum

And Lord Arceus

And then gen 9 box art ledgendary

[umbral meteor]

dawn wings necrozma is also left

[umbral meteor]

thats a mythical and probably never coming before eos lol

[umbral meteor]

rest probably gonna be shinies

[summer goblet]

That too

[summer goblet]

Rip

[noble tusk]

"I don't see her being popular enough to warrant the Cynthia treatment" LOL see you in Kalos Vilain arc then

[maiden kayak]

i need spray holy water here for that blasphemous discussion on that cursed banner

[chrome nest]

Spray holy gems

Oh wait it’s a solid

[maiden kayak]

sprinkle gems

[lapis pine]

Nah ngl calling richu sus for wanting to pull Kris is weirdchamp

[maiden kayak]

that banner is a ticket to hell where i see rotten corpses

like srsly

It does not make any jacked sense to go for that banner even if your fav is there

[tardy fiber]

True, Richu likes Kris and we all know that. Although the eevee banner sounds bad and looks bad but its his fave so i kinda understand why Richu did that

[maiden kayak]

like i definitely wouldnt pull plum and cynthia

if uts in that ridiculous banner

with no EX or whatsoever

worse of all

its definitely not the 2%

[tardy fiber]

I will also grab legendaries and invest eventhough no EX, like BP master units already spent 4 support candies on them

Might 3/5 Nita next month if no support faves

[maiden kayak]

BP is diff currency from gems tho

[tardy fiber]

But candies kinda valuable

And people said dont spent on Regirock yet i spend anyway

[maiden kayak]

[tardy fiber]

Gonna 3/5 nita next ...will help with her bulldoze spam

Then probably Mesprit

[chrome nest]

||Im scared about one thing, I’m at 303 scout points for N (hasn’t appeared) I’m fearing that if he doesn’t appear in 8K gems it’s a waste of time an effort, maybe I was stupid for betting on an ice coin. My ego got the better of me||

I make stupid decisions

[tardy fiber]

||what's ice coin?||

[chrome nest]

||An ice pun relating to kyurem||

[rare swan]

||What is your balance looking like?||

[chrome nest]

||100 gems I just did a multi||

[rare swan]

||Ah....well, we do have 8000 gems left this month, so if you can get them all you'll be able to go to pity||

||which at this point, you probably should to make the investment worth it||

[chrome nest]

||Hopefully||

[cunning swan]

||Plus SSN's banner still lasts for a few days in december anyway||

[rare swan]

yeah, you'll be fine

[chrome nest]

||Once I get N I’ll promise to save till 2 pities I’ll skip 3.5 Anni if necessary||

[cunning swan]

[rare swan]

Save up as many pities as you do or do not want - don't stress!

[chrome nest]

When someone got the unit you wanted in less gems while you are currently suffering:

[tardy fiber]

This is true like i never reach 100k savings because my faves keep popping but i at least save gems or can form pity with remaining gems of the month. I might save less gems but i got my faves, that's the goal I'm saving for anyways

[rare swan]

yep!

everyone has a different balance they're comfortable with, what matters is your preference

[deft glen]

Kalos VA is near, time to save gems

[tawny cedar]

Same

Must get Lysandre,sycamore and calem alts

Serena is ez skip for me

The problem is deciding wheter i skip xbold or not

Skipping xbold should let me get atleast 2 characters in kalos va

[upbeat lotus]

Since xbolb will stay until jan you have plenty of time to think

Jan dtm comes pretty early too

[umbral meteor]

even they even get it that is

calem probably will obviously coz protag

[umbral meteor]

ye we would prob get it on dec21/22

[rare swan]

Me and my 8 pities are ready for whatever comes

[cunning swan]

[rare swan]

Soon™️

[lofty relic]

let's go!

gratz!

[umbral meteor]

You are gonna be able to pity each kalos VA pair

[cunning swan]

I have 66k rn

[umbral meteor]

[rare swan]

that's the plan

(although I would prefer not to have to pity all of them LOL)

[umbral meteor]

Ofc nobody would like that..lol

[lofty relic]

but can you 5/5 all of them?

i'm at 44k gems here

almost halfway to my initial goal of 100k

[timber wren]

youre getting there very quickly!

[rare swan]

5/5ing all of them....

i am hoarding candies as well...but that's a tough ask

[lofty relic]

but what am i gonna do if next month is actually SS Lillie lol

or SS Selene

or JASMINE AMPHAROS

[rare swan]

you can relax because you've got a pity ready and waiting

[lofty relic]

[umbral meteor]

yikes if they do ss lillie or selene before arc

[lofty relic]

yeah i hope not too

[umbral meteor]

and considering its actually quite close to arc if its next mth

[rare swan]

you're implying they might do Alola before Kalos?

aw geez that would suck

[lofty relic]

for once, i agree

let me save lol

[rare swan]

[lofty relic]

plus Kalos is such in a shit state

no EX support, no crit support
in 2023

[timber wren]

i mean it could be random alola PF/MF outside of VA like ss lusamine

[rare swan]

ngl the fact that Lusa and Guzma are positioned in front of Lysandre on the VA image has me. a little Worried

dena please i cannot keep saving like this

[umbral meteor]

isnt may quite close to december

the CD will be similar to summer N and ss n

[sand crown]

Alola VA would destroy my stash so I’d prefer Kalos first

[umbral meteor]

If theres ss lillie or selene next mth

Im not saying they will do first

I mean its still quite close Lol

[rare swan]

oh LOL

[umbral meteor]

but not like they care anw

but would prefer hol22 lillie

over a random ss lillie for dec

[rare swan]

we already got a Lillie 'seasonal' (if you count SC units as seasonals, which we honestly should at this point)

but then again.....it's Lillie

[tawny cedar]

I hope if calem gets an alt,i get him 1st multu

[umbral meteor]

we shouldnt coz the banner name is different and so is the theme skill

[tawny cedar]

That's the least i deserve for 5/5ing calem (almost there)

[umbral meteor]

N also only got 4.5 months CD anw hilda only 4 months

so yea

[lofty relic]

i don't understand why Special Costumes were a necessity

[rare swan]

yeah N and Hilda are ridiculous, they should not have gotten summer

[lofty relic]

when people can have 2 sygna suits

[rare swan]

[umbral meteor]

coz low 5* rate

[tawny cedar]

Honestly think it's cool

It's like a theme of trainers

[rare swan]

honestly i don't even need a fave to pop up in winter, I'd just like the units to be 1) not from Unova or Galar and 2) characters who do not have any kind of alt yet

[tawny cedar]

Tea party theme,ultra beasts vs mythicals team

[rare swan]

let's be surprised!!

[sand crown]

Easy money I agree

[maiden kayak]

zenning here for a diff reason now

too many spoilers in other sauces

[umbral meteor]

no unova is actually likely altho no galar is unlikely imo

[maiden kayak]

oh

[rare swan]

if we get a unova unit i think i will actually be angry

[maiden kayak]

corless did 70k

pretty decent

[umbral meteor]

Ye 70k

[sand crown]

How do you know these sales figures so quickly

[maiden kayak]

dena spy

[umbral meteor]

i wont be since the arc is most shafted LOL

[rare swan]

just realized i misread what you wrote

[umbral meteor]

but anw i dont think we will

[rare swan]

it is late

[umbral meteor]

I think galar is possible

[sand crown]

I believe it

[umbral meteor]

Unova seems unlikely imo

[rare swan]

i really think galar shouldn't get anything since they got all of winter last year

like the entire event was focused around galar

[umbral meteor]

winter isnt only thing in dec anw

[maiden kayak]

galar should be focused on new units

[umbral meteor]

theres the master fair event also

[maiden kayak]

like where the hell is klara

[rare swan]

oh yeah, the random master fair....

i do wonder if we'll get one

[umbral meteor]

We have no characters from dlcs yet

[umbral meteor]

max gap is 3 months so we are p much guaranteed to get one lol

[maiden kayak]

i would like a random MF to have diff alt outfit

[rare swan]

actually galar might have a decent chance for the random MF since they only have one (and he's basically a myth at this point)

[umbral meteor]

they indeed do

[maiden kayak]

[rare swan]

that or alola takes it again

[maiden kayak]

marnie havent got a MF

[umbral meteor]

yeah

[maiden kayak]

just remember

lol

[umbral meteor]

so hasnt gloria

[rare swan]

i can't see it being gens 1-4, they're all pretty spoiled with MFs atm

[maiden kayak]

marnie i believe its more popular

[rare swan]

if Kalos is the next VA idt they'd get a MF now

so my money is on Galar or Alola

[umbral meteor]

yeah

same

[rare swan]

(if it's Unova I'll just. )

[umbral meteor]

seem safest bets

[umbral meteor]

yea but her mon option for MF seem a bit half anni level idk

g moltres..

but yea she can have one anw

[rare swan]

either way, always good to be ready for a surprise fave

i'm p sure the Lusamine fans were taken by surprise this time last year, so

you never know....

[umbral meteor]

Btw recent influx of galar in unite

[rare swan]

i think i'd be fine if the random MF was from Galar, they are due for another one

they just need to stay away from the winter seasonals

[umbral meteor]

lmao

ye

[maiden kayak]

FLANNERY ALT WHEN

fcking dena

even korina had an alt

[umbral meteor]

summer , holiday , palentines had double galar

[rare swan]

i do need the Flannery shaft explained to me, she's one of the few 'top male/female' characters left who hasn't gotten an alt

(the other two are sycamore and gladion)

[umbral meteor]

do we also count hop as top male

i mean looking @ japanese galar polls..

top 3

oh and silver

[rare swan]

silver was a launch unit for lodge, which came with a merch line

kiddo is definitely popular and another unexplained shaft

(just like a certain professor who i won't name 🙂 )

[lofty relic]

i admit it's a bit upsetting how the alt focus is usually on protagonists, champions or villains

[maiden kayak]

Professor burnett when

[rare swan]

i would discount the villains, honestly

[maiden kayak]

she also havent came

[lofty relic]

true the villains even don't get alts lol

rarely do

[rare swan]

SS Lusamine is the only non-VA villain alt, she's ~not a villain any more

[maiden kayak]

plum was actually lucky af to be intro early in poma as villain

looking at reg pool villains

its pathetic

[rare swan]

the shelly shaft......

[lofty relic]

you mean Matt

[maiden kayak]

shelly

[rare swan]

oh no i mean shelly

[maiden kayak]

the shaft was pierced into my kokoro

[umbral meteor]

They are more relevant in games storyline so i dont think thats upsetting tho

[lofty relic]

[rare swan]

tabitha is grinning because team magma won

[maiden kayak]

im still coping shelly comes later= she will be more meta

[lofty relic]

well this game is the perfect opportunity to make the others more relevant

that was the entire intention of the game iirc

[umbral meteor]

well more like to capitalize on whos more relevant

[lofty relic]

in fact

as stupid as that sounds

this game made the protags relevant

they were nobodies in their games

especially since the latter ones you can customize

[maiden kayak]

ethan

[lofty relic]

i don't believe Rosa had a fanbase before PoMa

[rare swan]

yeah not to be controversial but i find the protags so boring as characters 😭

[umbral meteor]

ye man i thought red was only protag

[rare swan]

every time there's a new protag alt i just

[umbral meteor]

Before poma

[lofty relic]

protags in the games are reflections of the player character

[maiden kayak]

hey we know may

[lofty relic]

they have no stories, they're meant to be you

[maiden kayak]

may was pretty iconic

[lofty relic]

PoMa gave them an identity (other than the few who are in the anime/manga, but manga is different)

[maiden kayak]

May stood out the most in manga

as protag

[umbral meteor]

Now we wait 3 years for florian to come

[rare swan]

yeah, but PMEX is gameverse

(we ignore Ash)

in the gameverse the protags are blank slates

[umbral meteor]

Nah man its a gacha

[rare swan]

with the exception being when they're the rival character (in some of the games)

[umbral meteor]

popularity is from both games/anime

[rare swan]

oh i'm not arguing that

i'm saying that PMEX doesn't take the anime into account

maybe with easter eggs here and there (you could argue SS Serena's hair was a nod)

but overall, the anime has nothing to do with the personalities of the characters

so the protags are just. well.

[umbral meteor]

obviously it doesnt since anime is a diff universe

[rare swan]

...i save a lot of gems

[umbral meteor]

lmao

[sturdy flower]

this is the reason I hate these, even alternative EX recolor would be more work for them than this

[cunning swan]

I just hate the fact that, in 2022, they still release 5* pairs with no EX

The banner itself is ugly, the trainers they put are not very popular, they just happen to be characters I really like

I want Lucas for collection purposes mainly, I collect game male protags

[ashen thunder]

Infinite field units
Nice bait for LG rollers

They'll likely throw em in lodge pool or smth

[cunning swan]

Ikr, their kits are decent but that's not my main reason to want to pull

[ashen thunder]

Coz spotlight limited sounds awkward

[cunning swan]

Are they even "spotlight?" Really seems like a limbo banner

[summer goblet]

Well there is one thing, vote for your wallet and see

Though i’m sure the eevee banner will drop some sales

[thorny pelican]

The only positive the Eevee Banner could provide in having people invest in it is if it would give DeNA motivation to do it again but with other characters who need alts

like Clair

[summer goblet]

Yeah thats true

[maiden kayak]

i rather have clair alt outfit

[summer goblet]

I’m neutral to the eevee banner

Let players decide what they want to do

[thorny pelican]

When you wait as long as I have for a character that should have gotten attention from the very beginning, like Flannery or Calem, you're desperate for any kind of character recognition

[ashen thunder]

I wish they had some cool eeveelution outfits

[maiden kayak]

yea

[ashen thunder]

Reusing old sprites is cringe

[maiden kayak]

totally

[ashen thunder]

Lodge already exist for that

[summer goblet]

I think Dena got a bit lazy at the end

[thorny pelican]

Lodge and BP yeah

But like

[maiden kayak]

at least lodge is not gacha

[thorny pelican]

I think it's fine if there's more effort in terms of kit design. Their kits do bring a little bit of new abilities to the table

[maiden kayak]

the idea of gems on reused sprites just disgusts me

[summer goblet]

Then again, pokemon company makes bizarre decisions all the time

[maiden kayak]

gems would turn rotten corpses in that banner

[thorny pelican]

And these aren't sprites, they're 3D models lol

But I get it

they're reused assets

[maiden kayak]

sprinkle holy gems in gem zen

[sturdy flower]

they didn't release any except free ones till now

[maiden kayak]

be gone eevee banner

[sturdy flower]

recolor for EX takes an intern a hour

[maiden kayak]

[sturdy flower]

i'd say picking colors is the hardest part of it

[thorny pelican]

I don't share the sentiment but players get a bad taste in their mouth when things get "reused" in this game.

Sync Moves, Character animations, and now Models with different pokemon obtained through gacha

[sturdy flower]

i mean, they have no reason to reuse model other than to save money (when a model costs less than a fraction of what a banner makes...)

[maiden kayak]

i wish i can set up a law firm in pasio to sue dena for coming up with such a ridiculous banner

[sturdy flower]

it's as if they just want to lower the value of banners in general

[maiden kayak]

compensation fee:1 mil gems

[thorny pelican]

I mean these aren't sync pairs that are going to be in the general pool right? They literally feel like a side thing

[summer goblet]

I rather sue Dena for not reruning mf often

[thorny pelican]

So not much to do unless you like the pokemon or the characters and Save Gems™️

[summer goblet]

If dena is lazy

[ashen thunder]

Non rerun units are common in gacha games

[summer goblet]

Rerun banners

[ashen thunder]

Wouldn't rly be surprised if Leon takes vacation for another year

||man lost to Ash of all people, give him a break||

[sturdy flower]

Leon has a good reason to take a vacation

[thorny pelican]

I think the issue Necronadal has is that DeNA didn't communicate clearly enough that Master Fairs were as infrequent as they've come to be now

[sturdy flower]

||something something Sakurai cheating||

[ashen thunder]

They don't have to

I've seen people waiting 3-4 years in other games

[summer goblet]

Yeah

[maiden kayak]

im pretty sure they wanna make MFs exclusive so ppl are tempted to pull at first glance and really low chance of rerun

[sturdy flower]

i have seen games not last 4 years

[ashen thunder]

It also let's people fall in like crazy when they see MF tag

[summer goblet]

It gatekeep the new players

[sturdy flower]

are there any MF units without unique sync animation

[thorny pelican]

That's a good point of discussion here, how crazy and tempted are you all going to be when a Master Fair gets rerun? What were your impressions when Maxie and Archie returned?

[ashen thunder]

Eventho there are also PFs taking long to get banners
Like raihan
And no paid select doesn't count, paid is cringe

I just realised hoenn MFs had less downtime than raihan

[sturdy flower]

skipped Archie and Maxie, went for all other MF

[maiden kayak]

empty hole

[summer goblet]

Ultimate victory and relived that they return

[sturdy flower]

CElessa still didn't "rerun" outside of paid

from the past MFs I'd probably mostly consider Anni Lillie and N

other than that... i'd have to be very lucky and save much more gems than I need minimum (min. is 3 pities)

and even then I might just go for some new pokefairs instead of DGloria rerun

[lean mango]

Only MFs that I want are Anni N and Anni Steven cause I joined a tad bit late

[thorny pelican]

The limited availabilities of these banners is screwy

[ashen thunder]

I just want ingo coz using cynthia with Bertha and acerola feels scuffed
I want her to be the best

[summer goblet]

Thats’s a bit of a issue for mf

[thorny pelican]

DeNA ultimately decides when things get reran and even in some Pokefair instances it's not obvious as to what might come back

[torpid prawn]

Elesa (Classic) & Emolga

Banner Availability

Debut: <t:1639072800:D>

If you like the bot, consider becoming a Patron: https://patreon.com/PoryphoneBot

[lofty relic]

wait

is Celesa the rarest pf now?

[summer goblet]

Yep

[maiden kayak]

yea

[ashen thunder]

CElesa followed by lucas

[maiden kayak]

shes love at first sight

[summer goblet]

And then the sinnoh va units like cyrus and dawn

[maiden kayak]

never regret a single bit

[summer goblet]

I guess before it was Raihan

But now he is common

Lear is pretty rare

[thorny pelican]

Rachel's rare

[ashen thunder]

Lear did get a rate up no?

Tho I'd assume it's coz how other psychics are just straight up better

[summer goblet]

Only 2%

[ashen thunder]

I remember Rachel being in NY free banner or smth

[thorny pelican]

in the 10-pull tickets, yes

[lean mango]

All of em were available in the ticket banner

Only got Sawyer which oof

[thorny pelican]

I wonder if I can utilize any of this information to decipher when Clair Alt could be made

When it comes down to it, DeNA decides when the banners come out - it's up to us to make sure our gems are saved to take advantage of those opportunities

[sturdy flower]

One thing that annoys me is that DeNa didn't add frames to old pairs in Lodge, even as they rerun

[lean mango]

Which gives me alot of struggle rn

[summer goblet]

Surprise that clair alt is taking too long

[sturdy flower]

the frame is ultimately a touch up of their 3D model in the sync pose

[sturdy flower]

check how many pokefairs Johto has...

[lean mango]

I want to save my gems this month but I keep getting tempted by Colress

[summer goblet]

Otherwise the clair memes won’t be prevalent in reddit

[thorny pelican]

Colress is a pokefair, right?

[lean mango]

Spotlight

[thorny pelican]

Gen pool?

geez

[summer goblet]

Remember that spotlight always return

[ashen thunder]

Lillie on her way to get 6th alt when malva hasn't even gotten a single Pokemon yet

[summer goblet]

In the gen pool

Patient

[lean mango]

I want to have my funny science man :BIANCAWHINE:

[thorny pelican]

Unova VA that doesn't feature Yancy or Curtis

VAs were a mistake

[summer goblet]

I want Alder alt

[ashen thunder]

Oh yea

Where the hell are the monkey Pokemon brothers

[summer goblet]

But i guess ge won’t get any

[ashen thunder]

[sturdy flower]

Yancy and Curtis for giant idol event as spotlights, with idol Dawn and Serena pokefairs

[ashen thunder]

3 potential spotlights for unova and still no sight of em

[summer goblet]

Well its capitalism for you

Gotta go with the majority needs first

[lean mango]

If Colress was a Pokefair I probably would've made my decision up way before but noo he gotta be a spotlight

[summer goblet]

Where the money lied

[thorny pelican]

This is equally as tough because on the one hand you know he's within reach, but it will cost you and most likely set you back for any of the upcoming tempting banners you'll come across

[ashen thunder]

Imma say this
Colress should have gotten genesect and Hilbert should have gotten reshiram

Or ghetsis with genesect

[sturdy flower]

Hilbert should have gotten his Kyurem

N should have gotten literally anything else, stop feeding him legendaries

[summer goblet]

At least Hilbert is good

[thorny pelican]

Regardless it's more beneficial for you to hold onto your gems and wait for a time you can invest in a banner you absolutely absolutely want, and bump into Colress as a spook or make him your choice at the end of a 36,600 run after pulling the featured sync pair, or by waiting for Anniversary 4 when he would be introduced to the ticket pool

[sturdy flower]

Nate

[summer goblet]

So i anin’t complaining

[lean mango]

He's 4th on my top fav list and that makes worry about the other three

[ashen thunder]

Well I am glad they gave N sigilyph

Eventho it's lodge

Atleast 1 isn't legendary

[sturdy flower]

i'd say even if you get 1/5 at 200/400 of something you want it's still better than going for Colres on his banner

[summer goblet]

How about the 2 for 1 strat

Go for a pokefair unit you love

[thorny pelican]

Because then it's like a 17,800 discount

[summer goblet]

Get lucky and pity

[thorny pelican]

I mean what are your other 3? If you want to exclusively look at these sync pairs in an objective lens, you then would be able to identify if this is an objective for you or not

[lean mango]

Hmmm

[summer goblet]

And get colress on pity

[timber wren]

you can maybe guess the top one

[lean mango]

1st. Eusine
2nd. Glacia
3rd. Lisia

[summer goblet]

It took me months to grab ss erika

[sturdy flower]

I'd say save because one of your favs might appear

[lean mango]

Thing is the only one I see having potential is Lisia

[thorny pelican]

Oh.

Oh um.

Save gems.

[summer goblet]

And now i have all her copy in a span of a month

So patient brother

[lean mango]

Lisia is by far the more popular of the batch

[summer goblet]

You get him

[thorny pelican]

Haha yes you're gonna want to save gems for the next 2 months

[summer goblet]

If all else fail

Select scout it is

[lean mango]

?

[thorny pelican]

Let's just say

||Maybe something something||

[timber wren]

there was a leak going around, no way to know if its true

but we’ll find out soon

[thorny pelican]

Yeah I would have 36,600 ready by the time January 3rd hits

If Lisia is a fave

[sturdy flower]

discussing leaks is illegal here

[thorny pelican]

Just in case

[lean mango]

If you want DM about it

[timber wren]

its not, just take everything with a grain of salt

[lean mango]

man

[summer goblet]

What leak

[thorny pelican]

who were those other two... Glacia and Eusine

[lean mango]

ye

[thorny pelican]

Well gosh I wish Glacia would get another costume but right now the most dependable way that would happen is by another SC event - which we have no clue when that would happen (First one was in November, second one was in April, "third one" was in August)

[sturdy flower]

Eusine might just appear randomly one day, but Glacia alt feels less likely than Clair

[thorny pelican]

Less likely than 0% is still 0%

[cunning swan]

Ngl I feel like Glacia alt is more likely than Clair

[sturdy flower]

remember Glacia EX took them forever

[thorny pelican]

Clair doesn't have an EX

[lean mango]

they probably have the same chancr

[sturdy flower]

altho maybe being infamous is better than being forgotten

[summer goblet]

May better off than Brock and Hau

Still waiting on their alt

[ashen thunder]

Nah, they'd rather make Clair alt than give a hoenn Pokemon to someone that isn't Steven or may

[thorny pelican]

Anyways it looks like this; Eusine would be a spotlight I would say. That makes it easier on your gems and rate of pulling. Glacia Alt could happen but it would be during a specific SC event at this point - until DeNA removes the VA stick outta their butt, we're locked in to this cycle of MFs, Pokefairs, and Popular-Character Alt releases

[cunning swan]

Brock already has an alt

[sturdy flower]

after VA finishes they might start PML arc 2 and have pairs for teams featured in that

[thorny pelican]

With that in mind, Colress will always be "available" - you'll have options

[summer goblet]

That one doesn’t count

I want a real alt

[sturdy flower]

PML arc 2 feels like a good time for Misty and Brock new alts

[summer goblet]

That has gem value

[sturdy flower]

them in a team with someone other than us

[summer goblet]

Yep

[ashen thunder]

You can kinda pick colress in a PF or MF banner as pity if the featured drop early

[summer goblet]

If pml arc 2 arrives

[ashen thunder]

It's not like you'd roll without 36.6k gems anyways

[cunning swan]

Yes please, PML 2 and have niche pairs alts

[lean mango]

I kinda fear a Burgh situation with Colress

[cunning swan]

Burgh?

[thorny pelican]

burgh situation?

[sturdy flower]

he's going to get a dumb looking costume and Togepi?

[thorny pelican]

Burgh Gate 2022

[sturdy flower]

Colress is going to be relevant in VA

because he's now in the Paulo Interlude too

[lean mango]

hahaha

[thorny pelican]

that's a thing

[sturdy flower]

but then look at how many pairs you have at 5/5

i got over 10 Sonias

and with Johto tickets my Kris went from 0/5 to 5/5 during VA

[summer goblet]

Between waiting for weather duo and Mask Royale since June 2021

[thorny pelican]

If you don't pull you won't ever need to worry about over-pulling 5/5s

[summer goblet]

Mask Royale wins by not showing up to me

[sturdy flower]

i save to pull

[summer goblet]

So anything is possible

Though i did purposely want him to evade me for the memes

[umbral meteor]

No they are limited spotlights in most simpest words

[sturdy flower]

Errodu, you know how ppl introduced you to me?
"that guy who has a lot of gems and forgot to use the free 10x draw tickets"

[thorny pelican]

Sounds like me

[lean mango]

Tbh i would've been fine if a unit like Lillie be missing but it had to be Burgh a character I like

[sturdy flower]

I wouldn't be fine because Lillie is 20 5* PU

[ashen thunder]

It's fine that's what scout points are for

[summer goblet]

Wonder posting gem count is legal in reddit

Prob not anymore

[thorny pelican]

Not without reason for discussion

[sturdy flower]

i heard reddit has martial law, but I don't use it

[thorny pelican]

like it can't be the "highlight" of your post

just something to support a deeper topic

unless

Unless it's topic enough in and of itself

like a stark presentation of something over exemplified - if that makes sense

[summer goblet]

Yeah something like that

[umbral meteor]

in like 34-35 days yes

[summer goblet]

Unless reddit mod deemed it inappropriate right now

[sturdy flower]

that's an early datamine

[umbral meteor]

january is always early tho

[thorny pelican]

There's only so much children's artwork you can put on a fridge before it gets annoying to reach for breakfast in the morning.

But then there's also the case of making time to go out of your way to see Van Gogh's Starry Night at the museum

[sturdy flower]

at least I will be focused on christmas instead of who are the new pairs

[umbral meteor]

we will have update like a week after christmas pairs anw

[thorny pelican]

If everyone posted their big gem counts then yeah that would clog up the reddit

[summer goblet]

True

[thorny pelican]

send a message to a reddit mod and see if they'll make an exception

[summer goblet]

Like those spam memes

[summer goblet]

I think the reddit mods don’t like me

[umbral meteor]

Do you think they like anybody

[summer goblet]

I got banned twice already

[umbral meteor]

isnt it like 90% of the posts get banned on it

[sturdy flower]

aren't they the staff on this server too

[umbral meteor]

lol

[summer goblet]

Only to the simpers and rule abiders

[umbral meteor]

ye

[summer goblet]

Lol

[sturdy flower]

also unless getting banned saves you gems they might bonk us for offtopic

[summer goblet]

No wonder i don’t see too many quality post

Or shitposting

[umbral meteor]

ye whichever post i open

"has been removed"

[ashen thunder]

Save gems enuff to get banned for posting that in reddit

[sturdy flower]

A mod that hates gems surely doesn't visit this place, so at least you won't get banned here for mentioning it

[summer goblet]

Yep

[umbral meteor]

lmao

p sure everyone loves gems

unless someone likes coins more

[summer goblet]

Pokemon masters gem saving subreddits

Lol

[sturdy flower]

some like to have less gems than 4, nevermind 5 digits

[summer goblet]

Yep

As much as i want to have fun shitposting on reddit and getting banned trice

I have a reddit blog in mind discussing about which banner should choose and reasons to do so

Or the art of daily pulling

[sturdy flower]

art of daily pulling

got 300 gems? pull on random active banner

be disappointed

[tawny dagger]

Dailies

100 gem

Paid ones

[summer goblet]

Talking about 100 paid gems

A way to get something out of nothing

[sturdy flower]

well yeah, but probability to get something is a huge gamble

the chance for 30 days of these is only decent in triple 1.5% i think

to get anything at all from rate up

[mental skiff]

300 gems = 1 incubator

[lime hill]

The day has finally arrived. I have crossed the bicentennial barrier

[mint mauve]

is there anyone tht i shud give my 3* support candy to aside from skyla? shes at 1/5 rn and ik she unlocks more potion mpr grids from 3/5

[lime hill]

Misty also benefits from them a fair amount

There aren’t that many units that you can use them on, so I say spend them on whoever you want, and soon enough you won’t need them anymore

[mint mauve]

awesome

thx

[lunar topaz]

Lillie I’d understand but Serena I don’t see jt

[lunar topaz]

I think they could easily put her Zerena into the story and rerun her more easily than make another alt with a region that doesn’t have to many Pokémon left over

[signal axle]

3/5 SST Red or 2/5 SSN? I only have 1 5 tech candy

here are the other options

[lunar topaz]

Not the place for this that wound be better suited in #1006350210450079784 this is a thread to save resources and not spend them

[signal axle]

ah

[thorny pelican]

This is the thread for asking "Why should I save my Tech Candy?"

To which we would probably respond with "Because we're bound to get tons of new techs in the future and they will be dependent on the new 4/5 and 5/5 sync grid tiles."

Consider this thread as a supposed financial advisory board in how to approach the game so you can get the most out of your resources

[signal axle]

oh

so I should save it

[thorny pelican]

20 coins = 1 candy
Currently you can expect to get 10 coins in each category ( ) per month
So in 2 months, you get 3 Candies
Specifically, you can get a Tech Candy refill in 2 months time

[signal axle]

Well I can wait

[summer goblet]

go with SST Red, he unlocks electric terrain g-max activator that gives you 3 ET in total

[thorny pelican]

Questions you could be asking yourself is "Will I be alright using the candy right now? What if a new Tech pair comes up next month that I want? How long would it take for me to attain a level of improvement on that Sync Pair that I'd be satisfied with - would I need it to be 1/5? 2/5? 5/5?"

[signal axle]

1/5 N is already wrecking all the content

[summer goblet]

if you want

[signal axle]

Ye I’ve been wanting to 3/5 SSTR for a while

[sturdy flower]

she could get an alt and still use Zygarde for something, or excuse that she can't use it because it's monitoring all over the island (even tho it never appears when other villains do stuff)

[lean mango]

So far staying true to saving up 4 candies of each version role, haven't made em into actual candies

Hope to get another 5* candy before that

[thorny pelican]

missing 3.5 more support candies

which'll be... 7 months of saving

wait wait where's your tech candies

So it's ten months of saving I see

[lean mango]

FIris 3/5 moment

I need to get a control of my candy spending, Striker I've been able to manage but I fall short on Tech and Support

[summer goblet]

Candy is the one resources i might be struggling in

Lots of units to candy for 3/5

Like HLeon

[lunar topaz]

Me when Calem 🦑

[fallen path]

Ahead of your time with candying to 5/5

[lean mango]

If I ever do decide to do selects, for seasonals might do 5/5 FIris cause

[summer goblet]

Dang

I want FIris badly

Force to skip her to save gems

So i will await for seasonal select scout

[lean mango]

PoisonMAX will soon become PoisonFlawless cause

[chrome nest]

Dear lord

[lean mango]

Then don't spend on Poma day

[thorny pelican]

I don't

25 spent gems is 25 gems I'll never have again

Those 25 specific gems - their radiant beauty, cast away into the darkness that is Tricia's Waste Bin

[fallen path]

Save Gems™️ to save the planet 🌎

[lean mango]

Those 25 gems are my one chance of getting Looker

[fallen path]

But phones use energy and we have to charge them

[tardy fiber]

Same, my chance for looker and courtney, also i think gordie and melony will be included in it as well

[mint mauve]

what happens on poma day/when is that?

[weary spire]

25th, it offers a 25 gem multi on a gen-pool banner, alongside a 100 paid gem multi with 1 guaranteed 5*
It also offers some other rewards like candy coins, a few , extra gems and a co-op stage you can grind to get a few other resources and previous 3* gear you may have missed out on

They also put out a few EXes or recently, grid expansions which buff older units

[lunar topaz]

Dk r forget the most important part new grids!

[weary spire]

Ninja’d

[mint mauve]

[tardy fiber]

I forgot, which units will get grid this poma day?

Oh only clay, roxie, cheren

[lunar topaz]

Cheren ** I wish Calem power boost lel

[tardy fiber]

Oh cheren

[lunar topaz]

Brain brawn is a neat passive I just wish they allowed him to buff stats

[tardy fiber]

Marshall, Shauntal, Grant still no grid

Enough for another unova month

I dont think i will touch Cheren...i invested on bp master units because they are faves so sorry cheren, although i have soft spot for normal type...but its just a stoutland

[broken mulch]

Did Cheren get significantly better?

[tardy fiber]

Well got some def buffs to team if use tm

Also crunch on a roll

[lunar topaz]

He’s in the same spot

lel

[tardy fiber]

But still only make 60% i think

[lunar topaz]

Team sharp entry doesn’t exactly work with non mega units

[broken mulch]

Ah poor Cheren

That spotlight in the story was WASTED

[tardy fiber]

Help to mitigate his low spdef

[half laurel]

Hows the new N?

[lunar topaz]

This is not the channel for that, this can be asked in #916852389347196958 or #1006350210450079784

Looking at your hen count assuming that’s what the 12K stands for definitely save as he’s not the best pair in recent times

[half laurel]

Am using here for good reason, thanks though

Oh that's it's outdated

Haven't updated it a few months
