#Resource Saving Support (Gem Zen)

2 pokefair left tho
Why would ciris be pointless to have?
Isn't she aligning with your goals?
I mean as far as gameplay comes
I don't think there's something she covers that can't be fully covered elsewhere
Gameplay means anything that isn't T0 unit is basically pointless 
Among f2p pairs
She covers both stat drop in aoe
I think you should add meta wishlist since you kinda like gameplay aspect
Has Flinch
Does anyone need attack drop in aoe?
She does 
Iirc no striker has pecking order
Techs
You don't need aoe for those
Power posture moment 
Well if you bring gameplay
Even CElesa is kinda meh

Isn't CElesa like a debuff monster
Who needs debuff monster?
I'd like a pair that does that without taking away the best flincher in the game
I do

However I wanted ciris for finally having a reason to 3/5 alder
I just try to roll 1 charcter
And then try to roll some meta stuff to boost my favs
I considered that too
However I have no idea what I'd need to boost ciris to the point she feels worthier to use than Cyrus
Who by the way is also a fave
Well she's getting 5/5 anyways 
Only recently I've learned how much I value gameplay
Because I pulled for N having ash and sst red
N never saw the light of the day despite the 3/5
That's the thing with the pikas
You can't hold both back
Because one is physical and the other is special
Well tbf
If my roster had better shit I'd have benched N as well
But it just lacks physical dps 
Why tf would the game so many physical supports but barely any good limited physical dpses

Oh
Who am I kidding
Even if I had every physical dps
I'd still make zekrom work
I tried that with uh
Chandelure
The best I can do to chandelure is to strap SS Kris and Lucian, then hope for the best
I don't have her
I started when SS Kris was released
Also, which would be the point of using a pair when a teammate does the same job better?
Well you don't need to roll her per se
The point being making favs work
It takes investment
I mean even with Kriss
Kriss is the one pulling her up
Yes
It's just that the ghost zone specifically wrecks the purpose of the character
Due to SSR Cynthia outmuscling her
Pull a unit with zone to support weaker unit but then it out damage the unit it support... 
dont compare gridless free unit to N...
HAllistair?
Making a weak unit work always gonna take effort 
unless Zone/Rebuff will be on a support they are likely to outshine the free 3* 4* units at 1/5
zone is a gauge battery

Making favs work : 
Making favs perform better than the supports : 
i mean, there are units that allow you to have an empty slot, so can you really call your fav working with that?
fav used as secondary dps is fine, but only if it really contributes, not when it pretends to do so
True tho
like people pair Lucas and Zinnia together. She sync 10k and Lucas DPS 12k 
at least Zinnia has the benefit of deleting sides with EX sync and is cheap gauge wise

Although i put zinnia as a fave but i dislike her gameplay, she need to rely on her teammates a lot...also i probably need to pair her with ssmorty and lucas to reach her full potential...better for me to setup Cyrus for dragon weak as he is much easier
Zinnia needed a grid fix not a mega imo
Well at least she's treated better than Gio as she got a new passive after mega...mewtwo doesn't add anything other than stats and psystrike
But i already expected that her dragon ascent will be quite lacking...the only redeeming aspect for shiny ray is the dragon ascent+good form and if zinnia outshines him, he wont sell well this month 
I thought its still special type, just damage based on enemies defense
So i didn't know well on how its interaction with those entry stuffs
Iirc scdiantha keldeo also have same description for secret sword
Yeah 👀 kinda like physical move but buff sp atk
But its still in the special category so its still a special damage right? So wise x2 would still affect it
Just not as much as using psychic

They could give us physical psychic attack, just give mega mewtwo x psychic shift giga impact 
wise entry x2 affects base stats...
so psystrike's damage isn't lowered, yes
passives that directly nerf special/physical damage on the other hand, like in LA
Oh so special shield still work?
not shield
Thats good to know because using my sssteven zen headbutt dps ain't working well
Special shield work but wise entry x2 is useless?
for example on Azelf, the Sterner and Brain thing
Might be good if wise entryx2 psychic weak happens
everything increasing special defense is useless against psystrike
Finally more use for my mewtwo
but brain brawn will stop it
hope his ex comeback
pretty sure i have used psystrike mewtwo somewhere already
Johto VA i think?
it was some EB
Kanto VA probably
I cleared both EBE using psystrike
Next VAs, they already updated it so that the free boosted legendary adventures unit still not have easy time to clear
but Silver did have an easy clear on his?
and Unova EBE wasn't bad either
Oh right silver was easy too because can use kanto units as they are also boosted
altho the 3 type one was brutal, I had to use my free Alder there
first time that ex-champion found use on my acc
Perhaps during rerun, they rerun EBE on Kanto VA rerun....but scrapped it for other VAs
Tate dps meta
I didn't have much success with him so i probably just gonna use him as flinch spammer
Tate’s biggest downfall as a solo dps is you need 2/5 ACynthia or 2/5 CKaylum.
I applaud your saving. The patience
thank you for the compliment
i would admit it's not easy at to reach that level
Make sure to flex at 420,000
I will, but its going to be for a while
One step at a time.
I need to pull for ||Serena and Jasmine|| before reaching the my next milestone
agree
Well, you know saying. Spend more than you make you’re poor. Spend less than you make you’re rich.
i made a gem budget to track my gem spending
so with enough surplus for October skip month and massive Nov. Surplus, i think i can afford to go a bit under for December
Anyway to celebrate this milestone, you can ask any question related to Pokemon Masters and I will answer them. Make sure to tag me so i can find your question easier.
I meant to say I've tried that once, not really comparing them
for N specifically it should be easier, but there might not be an amount of support that allows him to behave similarly to an 1/5 sst red
Should compare N with Hau or Ash instead...oh also NYVolkner
10 pities is absolutely phenomenal
I have a qn how does hwhitney use her TM 3x? I don't see it in the grid
sync burst
Thank you for your kind words
Yes ofc 
I underestimated lodge, these things does add up 
How many gems do we have right now?
Oh? So I'll have half pity by then
Wait we are getting 10k in 7 days?
Check the pins if you want to see the details
Interesting I didn realise we got so much during pomadays
since lodge started i’ve collected 3800 gems from it
Christmas+poma day
Saving past 2nd pity always gets boring

Since playing around same roster for 3 months is 
But that's the sacrifice you make to get favs
And i mostly have all gen pool above 3/5 except like 3 of the newest ones
So its the unit or literslly nothing
Cuz my gen pool is almost done
Ngl i wish all pool pairs get 5/5 grids
Just to make them better for older players
NEW HAIRSTYLE FOR SCOTTIE BETTIE WILL HELP YOU
||CCalem feels super fresh for that reason, makes my Masked Royal teams even more fun||
5/5 grids with qol/utility stuff for LG
Might be next after fairs
Hopefully
adding stuff is fine too, but for example the Fantina one is weak
meanwhile Kris and Karen are really good
Glacia's was also great
I get the setimentent, it does feel drawn out after a while without spending a single gem and itching to grab a new unit to have fun.
But if there is one bit of advice to avoid a bit of boredom, it is to set some kind of goals whether its your wishlist of units you want or setting yourself a gem goal and constantly obsessing over it
hehehe, try saving 10 pities (let alone over 20 pities)
Same, but after realising there's more than 40 unreleased faves of mine...i cannot let my guard down 
Thanks SV for adding 22
does Paradox count?
Yes as koraidon and miraidon are paradoxes
not that i fully understand their role since i didn't fully play the game
So i will collect all paradoxes
Also there's paradox ||suicune and virizion||
dang, fair point
their bascially robots are they
or a least having metal coating like armour
Looks like robot but they are not steel so probably some futuristic lifeform adaptations
yeah
Paradoxes seems similar like UBs...necrozma, lunala, solgaleo are also kinda UBs as they are from different universe and sent their cosmog to earth with the lights and stuffs to evolve
Koraidon, Miraidon are paradoxes yet become box art legendaries
So i gonna collect them all 
Even more reason for me to not get swayed by non faves like these frogs
Although they are good, but my faves will come later 
sv "spoiler" ||there might be a plot reason for them being so "fanfic tier"||
Is that official
They are hinted in the Scarlet / Violet Book
Ah okay
it's confirmed by our favorite activity that will probably happen on 21st or 22nd
Although the datamine will be early, the event stuffs still start late December right? I forgot how it was last December
just check last event and add 3-4 days
i didnt play last december to confirm or deny anything
but we have some reruns on 26th
and then EB on 30th
kinda weird to see that stuff, maybe they added it by accident
i think new years event will start on new year
(duh)
and before that is just the anni rerun
yep, i can comfirm that its going to happen this month which is pretty fast ngl
Because ssrcynthia was released on 27th December
But datamine was on 21st or something iirc
yeah, somthing like that
also praying for no new MF
Jan has like 3 mf rerun
i need to save for 2-3 months to reach my gem milestone
Im happy that anni 2021 MF rerun with EBE 
They didn't do those for VA reruns 
Lots of missing gems
yeah
Kinda sad that the EBE doesn't rerun because for me EBE is like consolation prize for future reruns for free gems due to the units that we got from the event...so kinda sad when it doesn't rerun
yeah, for myself i have an ocd when going for EBE
leave no gems behind
and also, i'm a complistist in this game
I don't mind leaving gems if the only option is for me to pull non faves
But luckily all EBE till today is clearable with my roster
Even these frogs EBE
What if the only option is to EX Karen?
For this EBE? I cleared it without karen...just evelyn, sscyrus, zerena
Or lysandre...i forgot
can she?
i have not try it yet with my ex Karen
I forgot if i used lysandre for the dark weak
||I ended up exing may and sidney for them :/
I’ve yet to see a summer gloria clear||
Second Anni EBE? Région last time
because 3rd was region + type
Yep 2021 ebe is just region
uhh so there's Alola one?
Yeah, the hard one
I wonder if Alola will be easier now
Don’t remember exactly but AnniLili has piercing blows so I feel it must be somehow related
so some bullshit
might as well give it a passive that enemy takes 0 damage no matter what
Those didn’t exist until sinnoh cS 
That was with the Archie and Maxie event
that is why i'm focuing on theme skills for now on for my team building
valid strategy
i don't have to necessarily pull everyone for EBE
just get a general sense of powerful units of each region to clear as many EBE as possible despite the inefficiency
yeah I got Hoenn and Unova very well
i'll say my weakest region right now have to be Galar
Reg Leon isn't doing it for me so I'm going to grab Dojo Gloria to strenthen it
and of course Paldea which i will await for them next year
i'm not a big fan of Galar myself
so mine is "lacking" too, at least in comparison to other types
yeah i get ya
but I don't mind Gloria so i will probably go for her notable pokefairs+
i'm waiting her Dojo Gloria for pokefair select scout in the next 2 weeks
i might try to beat all 3 2nd ani stages with 3rd anni team
cool
i'm expecting one in 2 weeks
it had sentry entry x2 😉
and Hoopa uses Snatch there
also sides have aoes
the main problem with Alola is the lack of tanks, not even the damage for EBs
anyone who has summer Hilda can probably cheese it
full buff the tank and when stats are stolen reverse them
Hoopa gave me nightmares back then when i have no lillie
you have her now?
I think the alola still kinda hard eventhough its already 1+ year, the only ghost alola other than annilillie is acerola
And try my best to complete the eve
I did
As soon as i got her at 3/5, i used her along with the likes of Olivia
Hard but manageable
I ex acerola for her reward for completing the ebe
prob the only few people who does it

i doubt many had MR at that point
The f2p Alola rosters dont even have good tanks
The best ones are Nanu and Acerola wtf
even with spotlight only
you have Elio and... that's it
and he can't buff crit on EBs
Kiawe, Elio and Lana are good tanks
ah right, Kiawe and Lana exist
Lillie exists too
and Lillie!
The Alola spotlight are really good
Kiawe has Wise Entry 2, but Lear has Snatch lel
Well they have sustain so its not really a problem
Doesn’t Acerola have like 100 bulk
B Thunderbolt will still hit like 20k

i have no idea how they can deny Ash without blocking 95% of the game's units
Dont worry 3rd anni trio will do off region easily
Waiting for the stage with deluxe entry x10
I didn't pull any 3rd anni trio...so i just gonna use all of my 2021 anni trio 
We need Ash Guard x10
Anime Protagonist Guard x3
I’m waiting for them to start slapping tough skin 9 on most ebe’s to counter ash.
How about
Rat Guard x10
Just release buddy move shield passive, reduce buddy move damage by 70% 
or "Side character's time to shiny" passive, blocks damage from Main Character type pairs
Those rats use buddy move
buddy moves are pretty much just moves
I’d be all for buddy move reduction skill.
as far as game's code goes
It cripples SST red and greatly hurts ash.
Yes 
no it doesn't Joey
Doesnt hurt ssn much because his is just debuffs
Riiiiiight.
Thank you for the reminder.
Okay so it does absolutely nothing to red.
I guess the only other alternative to crippling red is some sort of weather wipe but for terrian.
Red Guard: reduce 99% dmg dealt by Red. Cant be ignored by Piercing Blows 
yeah, that could mess with him
it would need to be a full blown terrain block though
other terrains he will just overwrite
hey, don't make Ropalme quit...
More like how weather wipe works with,
if an action is done by the enemy team, removes all terrain currently in play. So red can never keep electric up long enough to capitalize on it.
The sentry entry didn’t stop him 
I also have ash
So in that regard N is doomed
As for anti Red measures
You could have something like
Team High Ground X2
Doubles the team's atk, spatk, def and spdef when a terrain comes into play
Or have something like team unfriendly fire, giving team wide immunity to buddy moves
Or do both and add a passive that makes it so only 3 gauge moves and onwards can damage them
He still drops defenses on a 2 gauge move, sets aoe para and terrain
Already better utility than most of the techs 
Also flinch and spd drop
Who cares abt him not doing damage when he does basically everything else
hi gem zen
im returning back again in order to keep myself accountable
i want to save until the next VA, which means im skipping all banners leading up to it unless a fav comes around
Nice 
Yep kinda interested to see when the next VA will be 
Well they can do February, half anni stuff probably starts at 28th feb
But run up means x100 free pulls 
Hopefully i get a bunch of 4*
Im in the situation where 4*
are more valuable than 
For Jessie and James 
I want them as well, seems nice to do cgio, jessie, james team 
I'm kinda being a sitting duck with PoisonMAX
Can't really do much without spending gems
Just really want DeNa to rerun em pls
I saw someone that do GrassMax the other day, the guy also missed some unit...iirc missing sslyra
Legendaries, Mythicals, UBs MAX lets go 
After im done with djgloria next month, i might can start to use candies on fallIris 
Last time my MAX progress got updated was since FIris 
Lodge marnie 
I like how I don't have to do much for it but seeing the lack of Poison in this game is sadge

DeNa I have one request, remove her from lodge
I don't wanna have her 
If I ever eventually get the frog I'm leaving og Marnie at lv1 and maxing the frog immediately
She does have Looker passive

Nearly forgot to claim daily missions… wonder how many times i’ve forgotten 
I cannot miss gems in pomas, every gems count
because pity costs a lot ...i carry this habit to Genshin as well 
did someone ghost ping me..? lol


6 in 1 banner

0.3333% rates

No.... Im not getting Holiday Leon
I'm gonna skip....
those f2p holiday banners are a scam
you might as well just throw a pity into this monstrosity or simply hard skip it
This made saving gems to pull holiday units on their first release or wait for seasonal select even more important. As these units rerun a year after will be dumped in the same banner with all previous pairs 
Yep already mentioned seasonal select
Just for people that have a bunch of seasonal faves might have problem. As seasonal select can only select 1 unit. And it perhaps only happen twice a year. Well bad for newbies at least
That want to chase bunch of old units
yeah, the new ones are at a huge disadvantage
Kinda thought that they would split the banner into 2 separate
Well at least now that paid gems are becoming cheaper, might can also consider the 10k paid tiered
i save the 10k paid tier for Palatine Bea and SC Ingo/Emmet
and there is a great chance i can only pick either Ingo or Emmet from 10k select scout
I spend that 10k paid on sc pokewar rerun, well managed to 3/5 scdiantha, scguzma, schilda thanks to it 
nice
Luckily didn't get scjasmine...would hate it if she becomes 4/5
oh yeah and the 5k pokefair new years select scout
unless they get 5/5 grids
Oh about this, i might skip the select if i already have 3/5 for all faves in it
Well DeNa only mentioned 5/5 grids is for Fair units...they are seasonals so probably not
maybe Anni Skyla for flying zone
we will never know
At least im happy that CCalem and CSerena didnt come with 5/5 grids
oh totally
Means they not gonna touch Master Fairs soon
not that i will care about though if their base is great
I gonna ignore 5/5 existence...even 3/5 they can already do nice stuffs, 5/5 aint a necessity, they are just privelege for fans of certain unit that want to see their fave do huge damage
yeah def
though i will admit 5/5 SS Hilbert is tempting to candy
double rebuff is gonna hit hard on all 5 types
Im not tempted because my djgloria, sskorrina and falliris are not 3/5 yet...so i still need bunch of tech candies
right for you need more
i do plan to use my tech candy for Dojo Gloria and SS May if i get them next month
3/5 for sure
Yep because i got bunch of faves
I got 18 pokefair faves currently, if i put 5/5 grids as goal...thats an extra of 36 move candies that i need to chase 
That i could use on 18 upcoming faves
wow the deal for winter suck. I really feel bad for anyone who chasing rerun banner of 6 unit 
... That gonna be me this summer 

If you only chase one unit, a seasonal select might pop up on new year or half anniv
I calculated... i only be able to buy 3000 gems bundle at 18th March (the day half anni selected scout end)
that mean only can count for anni and i need 2 summer unit


True, well but you do need 2/6 of the summer units ...so spending a pity for the summer rerun is not as bad as only targeting 1 unit
yeah that was the plan so i can get both Gloria and Marnie (Pity whoever i cant get by luck)
Now i have to depend on select at worst case (have to drop NY Lilie)
And it overall increase the value of seasonal unit... And i get attracted by seasonal outfit deeply 

Yep we still didn't know what next seasonal units gonna look like 
||we might already know but idk if we are allowed to talk about that particular thing in here||
||but the leak doesn't talk about pokemon pairs so i am still in danger
||
||let's find a secret place where we are alone
||
Ok simple question ... Do you think marnie will come?
wink wink
Marnie will come... ||For palentine's rerun||
Marnie already in lodge banner, she already came
dunno future hold mystery
Future scout hopefully no datamine drop on them till palentine end at least one month 
I have a feeling next month will be a skip for me too
Besides NY we'll probably get Kalos VA right?
no Kalos do you think we will have another serena and calem alt?
Nah, probably they'll do Sycamore and Diantha
Exactly, it's a skip 

Sscalem alt is still unused 
I doubt they'll do two consecutive alts tbh
do we allow to inspect unused alt here... If so send me a calem T pose 
are we allowed to talk sv favs here?
I think its allowed as already more than 18th dec
Let's go i can say i like Larry
Rika
Time to add 22 paradoxes and four Legendaries to my fav list 
best ♀️
RIKA RIKA RIKA RIKA
I made a tierlist of SV faves that I'd pull in pokemas, let me find it
time to update scout list

Spoilering just in case
I only really want Rika and Nemona
i love all Paldea characters 😭 my wallet hurt
🤝
A lot of it is probably the fact that they're shiny new characters
No not that
By the time they actually arrive in pomas the excitement will be lower
I love their design and personality
sv has more characters than galar with dlc combined
And nearly half of them are minor characters
It's going to be a pain in the ass for them to be added oof
My must haves are Koraidon, Cerulegde and its Scarlet counterpart, Turo, Sada and Arven
Also I hope they don't skip PLA
They probably wont
PLA would make so much money
Idk didn't it sell less than the regular mainline games?
As time goes by my zen game gets weaker
I can feel it
Almost time for me to ragequit
that's every non mainline, always
the level of marketing is different
be free
Nemona is kinda cool tho but what i am worry is that weird pikachu clone she bring along with her 
Hope she has the fire crokodie tho
i love Pawmot
darwinian evolution be like
the new pika clone is one of the worst ever
hate Pawmot
Acquired first pity gem on the goal to 500k
If Glimmora isn't a Poison unit I will be so upset 
If it comes with Geeta it will be rock type surely
I don't wanna lose another poison unit 
But I'll be getting it regardless
Edited my list to add the guys
best thing ever
i hope the new anime will have a Pawmot user
and it will always be out to indicate the "walk to evolve" thing
tell the difference
It got fluffed up after all that walking
One's more orange.
it matured
if you say changing hair style is evolution then i evolve twice a month
One has a pink shiny
Careful not to go too far into pokemon general territory y'all!
I won't let them diss my Pawmot 
All that matters is that I get my Glimmora mi amor
i just want Nemora has better pokemon when she come
Geeta better be the meta
Geeta and Lady Gaga ostrict
let's go
I gotta say, Geeta was a bit disappointing in the game
She had potential to become a fave
Guys i did a multi on the seasonal banner and ||got nessa||
Which is why I say #JusticeforGeeta
#gacha-and-flex moment, not here
soon she will become "another champion" the fate to all that is not at lv of cynthia
I've never understood the fanfare for Cynthia tho 
she swept your ass when you were young... that is traumatic
Never played a Sinnoh game
i had years of experience when playing a Sinnoh game already
How do u guys login when there’s no new content or banner
Feels like such a drag but I don’t wanna miss out on the gems
i press the icon on my phone's main screen, follow me for more tips and tricks
nice tip
Number go big, I like that
Enough motivation for me
I set a gem goal for myself and having the desire to push my limit and surpassing player's gem count
imagine if Clive gets added and you cant roll for him
lol
Mask Royal have a word with you
but Clive is actually ||Clavell in disguise||, they revealed it at the end
10k gems away from my first pity save up more or less.... soon ™️
Tryna tell myself to not do daily rolls just cause I got lucky a few times recently 
Dailies are a sham anyway 
||Nothing stops you from getting lucky after you have lots of gems and can allow yourself to go for things you want but not that much||
||Yeaah basically, that's what happened with Unova VA, I got all 3 off daily rolls within the banner coming out lol||
So far I think to help I made a list of what I want/hopefully will happen as motivation
Oh yeah, I forgot to put Drayden up there too in the want list since he's not in the game yet, but yeah
It's the only thing that lets me feel the satisfaction of getting something done because my life is too busy to allow that 
How is Gem Zen feeling on this fine day? 
pretty nice, focus and discipline for who i want to gt this month
I didn’t realize datamine is so close •.•
wednesday/thursday right?
I don’t quite know.
I suspect for it to be the 23rd, farthest it can be pushed to
if something goes wrong on 23rd they will have to go to work on christmas day 🙂
They probably have it all planned out
Dena is located in japan tho iirc and christmas isn't a national holiday there
Schools will still open on Christmas if it's a weekday
But Christmas is on the weekend this year, so yeah probably no 23rd solely cause they don't work on the weekends
We never get Friday, Saturday, or Sunday datamines for that reason
So 22nd?
I guess. Could still be the 26th-28th, no???? (I don't know when japanese businesses usually close for the new year)
Gem count stops at 25th
i put that in the summary earlier this month when i got the info from dataminers
Oh they do????
(<-- exposed as a fake who didn't read the summary)
But ah in that case yeah, 22nd is the latest

Is next month when we're getting chara customization??? Forget if the letter said it was next month or just Soon™
I think it was Soon™️
i think they said soonTM but not sure
Ah 😔
unironically hyped for that more than new pairs
SAME????
Same
"MORE character customization and EVEN including new hairstyles"
watch it be a one new hairstyle for EX

Screw new pairs, we need MC alts 
big chance Torchic gets grid tho, that month
Neo Champion MC
first we need Pasio region tag
Time to see if the leaks are true 
i thought there are MC leaks for a moment
a lot of my hype for new pairs has gone down since rn I'm mainly hyped over gen 9 charas so since I know we're not getting them soon, I'm just 
i'm still looking forward to Adaman
I want Geeta
more gems saved 'till then

I want Grusha
I think it'll happen for a lot of people once the hype dies down
I feel like Geeta will have some DLC content, because of that Glimmora thing
People barely talk about PLA characters already
She better get more content
Yeah hype is gonna be dead by the time gen 9 finally gets in 
they can't get it in till we get the DLCs tho

that would require updating dialogues later

They're shiny and new now but in a year when they actually come out they probably won't be in as many fav lists as now
Iono will still sell $$$
I think it plays in our favor that they take some time to add them in a way
Just hoping I'm still
about nemona when she finally gets in
Because it's less likely we fall for the hype
we over here never fall for the hype though
I think we definitely do sometimes, we're just human
Nemona


Nice
I will fund Geeta's banner
It's def better from a gem zen perspective that they take their time ||but wah pulling during peak hype is fun
||
it's weird that they don't capitalize on the hype
I'm still going to be very hyped when they do add my faves though
Got my list prepared
Leon rerun hype hasn't died down for me
OMG I LOVE THESE NAMES
Larry tho
I want official art for the rest of the cast so I can add them to my list
Right???
Atticus official art hype
I feel like Larry is going to be one of those that's gonna fall off a lot of people's list
DeNa will have to nail his introduction event
This is my list rn tho. Tho tbh I should move grusha up to the 2nd tier. Geeta, Rika, and Dendra would probs also be in that tier, then need to add a bunch of charas to the lower tiers
Larry's nice I guess, average like for an average guy
Like yeah he's a funny meme guy but once his banner is actually here and he releases alongside a very strong banner or right before anni or something like that will people really commit 36k to him?
he would need an alt or pokefair
because spotlight is a no pull for me
especially on a new region that will get brand new ticket category
I mean, don't understand what fans are willing to spend on their faves regardless of how strong they are
with dudunsparce? absolutely
But that depends on his ratio of casual "haha funny man" fans and super devoted fans
Yeah I just don't think Larry will make it into a lot of people's fave list in a year from now
I'd pull for a spotlight fave that's not strong
a lot depends on the DLC and anime too
I just hope they write Nemona well
I hope Geeta is hype in the anime, the only time I'll watch the anime
Nemona x Hilda event
I hope the anime actually writes the characters this time instead of leaving half of them out for no reason
N is a lot less of a weirdo in pokemas than he is in BW, so worried Nemona will get treated similarly
my SV list is trouble
Rika and Clodsire
Iono and Bellibolt
Grusha and Cetitan
Eri and Annihilape
Nemona and ??? (probably meowscarada)
Larry and Dudunsparce
Tinkaton!!
TINKATON 
Nemona is a weirdo and I need her pokemas writing to reflect that 
also sada and slither wing
Tinkaton will be with that smoll child
Pls nemona and meowscarada
will probably be pawmot
she’s got the little green hair thing cmon
I need Nemona to automatically challenge everyone in Pasio to a baytle
I'd take Nemona with any pokemon
Even orthworm 
orthworm rules
YEAH
I mean same but give her meowscarada
I'll have Glimmora mi amor with Geeta regardless 
Orthworm's little hands
Orthoworm is the Best
i saw their little fists pop out and went YEAHHH
Orthworm is my sleeping paralysis demon
you have a cute one then
Y E S
Actually I'll probably put Rika in my pull for any alt tier because 
Other pokemon I would love is the bun dog
Fidough 
I feel like I'm going to die if Rika gets an alt 
Dachsbun

I just refer it to bun dog
If it weren't for Nemona, Rika would 100% be my fave this gen. Cool, androgynous girls like her are my favourite trope 
Also clodsire is my fave mon this gen so that's a bonus, too
Rika didn't really do much in the game
I think I'm in love with her
Nemona has that advantage
She looked extremely cool
Rika's fine, I like how she spins when she throws pokeballs
Rika was cool and has a fun, laid-back personality I like
HE'S CUTE I LOVE KOFU
I like Veluza, I had one in my team
KOFU WAS GOOD TBH
i am afraid of his multiple pairs of eyebrwows
I WANT HIM TO BE MY DAD
Idc about him tho
Idc about any of the gym leaders tbh
None of them had a lot of personality
Iono… 
Miriam
the home ed teacher was good too
I like Miriam I was happy she passed the test 
or the chaotic neutral history one
I really liked how Brassius turned out
I want Iono but I'll cry if her jp voice isn't the same one from the trailers
they used the same VAs for Galar as in the specials so maybe

||he's so relatable
||
Raifort is the best
Oh jesus
I am gone for a while dying a painful death

My law professor has an interesting sense of humor

Oh dam 153/15 
Grats
I think it’s 150 but still over!
Maybe 159
It was extra credit for citing several laws nobody else did in the scenario
Case and point i am glad i am done and can focus on gem zenning
Daaaamn doc congrats!
I dunno where would I ask this but probs only here:
If the pity system in POMA didn't existed, how would you guys go around it (and manage your savings)?
I already play a gacha game without pity system before. I just pull if i like the character after considering a very strict criteria...with that, you will only pull a unit once in a while
Wait, what were the rates in that game?
1.5% for featured unit or something...but if got 2 featured it will be 3%
or when it basically got a rate-up..
Well at least the game's meta kinda forgiving. But it does have bad currency rates so it got EOS 
Does everything end with EoS?
Not for console games, you can play pokemon SV for example forever and ever
The only thing that’s gonna eos is: Nintendo switch is discontinued and the switch e shop is permanently offline
Is the eshop legal?
if pokemon master dont have pity...we just play the game like normal and gems zen wouldnt exists
perfect world full of fun and chaos
I don't play gachas without pity
I’m 273 scout points into Serena and Greninja, I just really want her lol (I started on Sunday)
You could have rerolled for her
163 scout point needed so around 5 multi = 15k gems and gems count till 25th is 7780 gems... Kinda hard tho
is that pfp yu from beyblade? been a while since i’ve seen him
Since they're new, they might have lots of gems left to collect
Hope so
I think I'm at my 7th-9th multi for calem lol. No regrets, at least I got some good ups and new stuff from those
i learned a lesson to not go for mf with high hope if i havent already had a pity
My believe is that you will always pity a fav MF unit...
Only luck can save anyone trying not to pull with enough gems for pity
Which is a miracle, for the most part...
copium
after their banner ends or getting calem, I'll just ignore every banner except for POMA Day 25 gem banners

Not until Hau alt anyways
Make a super specific new sync to scout for better focus 
My belief is I will always pity a unit and if I get it below pity, it's a bonus and consider myself pleasantly surprised
I only have 6

True tho
idk man, I'm just a kyurem at this point
I dont hate pity a unit tho
make me love them more
look deeply into your inner-self to find real luv 
Tier list maker help tho
I think I should make a proper tierlist for the faves I want to pull
should also think about pokemon tho... last anni i thought i had perfect future scout list with character then shaymin sky form come
Also if your fav get pair with something like wigglet evolution that might be a big skip 
"Hell yeah my wish list is com—"
A wild Sky Forme Shaymin appeared!
"Oh fuck I need to reconsider"
I only see pokemon so even if they pair barry with arceus or something, i will still get it although i hate barry 
Story of my life 
in case of arceus i will take it even if they pair with Leon
i will not take it if it specifically gets paired with Leon
maybe even quit
gonna be fun tho
Talking about leon, i hate hleon outfit so much but i still get due to calyrex 
I have very few favorite pokemon
I play pokemon for the characters and plot
I play pokemon for Toadscool
Idk man, I just collect dratinis
kinda same tho
Just sometime .... sometime things happen
I play pokemon to bully trainers, gym leaders and e4 with legendaries
are you guys excited for why they would add more character customization cosplay as your favs to not pull them
probs good for an April Fools update
only enjoy nuzlock now so i find myself start to like some weird pokemon i rejected before
Still waiting for protags wearing villain team outfits alts 
Ethan with Team Rocket outfit
Magma Brendan and Aqua May
rocket Red huh
imagine they do fav outfit that might cost me a fortune
with shiny Mewtwo
and i thought mewtwo is unique
pretty sure Kyurem is too
Multiverse of mewtwos 

Well didn't Pasio Ghetsis came from different universe anyway. Like from rainbow rocket universe, that's why got two kyurems
Hilbert caught Pasio universe kyurem
Did he though? Poma Ghetsis had his plans foiled by gen 5 protags, no? RR Ghetsis had not.
But he arrived here already with a kyurem, and didn't he arrive here just like Giovanni and Cyrus, via hoopa...thats why they have their legendaries
The whole multiuniverse kinda confusing tho 
He still could've been warped here, like other trainers were.
Will be more complicated when they put Hisui 

N fly here using zekrom, and iirc paulo interlude show Tina arrive here from jetty or something.
So pasio is not an inaccessible island
Probably just like battle frontier
Some people got Hoopa'd here, not everyone
Who else other than Giovanni, Cyrus, Ghetsis...Maxie and Archie didn't get port here, they arrived and they caught Groudon and Kyogre in Pasio as those pokemon got ported here during magma aqua event story
Not villains, characters like Cheren, Cynthia, probably some others
They have mentioned to travel here by mysterious rings
But is there a scene that shows they got ported? Giovanni, Cyrus and Ghetsis was shown
Why would a scene be needed? If we can't believe what characters say, we lose like half the lore
But did they say they get ported? On which event? I can check at youtube...would be good to add lore 
Mhm, that may be main story stuff. I'll see if I can find it
Iirc Lear also had a plan of teleporting lots of pairs here
did anyone do a sum-up on pasio story because i skipped it since dawn of tine
I've read it but it was ages ago, so details are vague.
Here.
Cheren's quotes on BP
Well the confirmed transported ones are Giovanni, Cyrus, and Ghetsis...others didn't have proof that they are being teleported or just arrived by ferry like from the text above
So double kyurem is understandable
As Ghetsis was transported and legendary adventures shows it
Cyrus too
And Giovanni too
Back of their pokemon, shown cases is N arriving via zekrom
What if Villains use a pokemon with Teleport to get on Pasio and then lie to everyone about Hoopa tricks?
That's the same amount of speculation as "others didn't get teleported here".
By the way, Ghetsis being from another world is possible, just not RR one.
But cheren and bianca being teleported based on the texts might answer why they are older and hilbert and hilda are still young and same age with nate and rosa
Will sound better than hilbert having stunted growth 
well, Cyrus is indeed from Pearl universe, since he has Palkia and knows nothing about The Distortion World
So another ghetsis, gio and cyrus might exist in pasio universe as the ones we have are from different place
unless he lied~
He got dialga too...but he give it to Lucas in sinnoh VA
Asking him to take care of it
Doesn't he hunt Dialga down?

He put it in some contraption isnt it...he already have it in galactic base
Let me recheck the VA
did he explain where and when he got it?
None, thats why i thought he already got it...and thats made his words to take care of it to lucas even more fitting

He came with this
He already got it i guess
But he dump dialga on the spot
Traitor

the only reason Gyratina didn't send him to DW is being caught by Cynthia
Kinda hate them in sinnoh VA, cyrus is pretty tame after he got darkrai
He just want to be alone
But here come someone to disturb his good time bringing legendaries
Giratina, Dialga and Cresselia
Mewtwo in the multiverse of madness
At least another Mewtwo can exist because this Giovanni was ported by hoopa
Mega mewtwo x lets goo
Yea it’s yu from beyblade
an universe where his plans were foiled (BW) and he was still preparing for BW2 plot
that's why in his LA he was comfused as to why people knew Kyurem can fuse Zekrom and Reshiram
right maybe this is the most correct one
Thats why he didn't know that Giovanni will backstab him in legendary adventures
RR Ghetsis work with Giovanni so he should have known
Praying for 10k next month in next 10 days of jan
the meme gem lottery (enjoy your 200)
i only wish jan has average gems count of 26k
why not more
you can always spend the surplus
and better has low hope so i wont spend randomly to round down
happiness is when you know what is enough
New sync pair scout plan tho.... in trouble 
Ahaha nice I plan to select Dojo Gloria too
I’ve saved just enough of my paid gems to most likely guarantee that I can do the selects, so yea, I guess we’ll see
Lucas is the only thing id 100% paid select right now


and 


from CS before the reset phew

cant wait for datamine
