Resource Saving Support (Gem Zen)

[oak crest]

plus you never know that the future upcoming favs might be the next top dmg dealer too

[vernal glade]

That’s why I save for my Fave trainer and my fave pokemons than just pulling on some random master fair and pokefair banner

[white sparrow]

woooooo

[vale ivy]

🎉

[grim plover]

the day dena released a tier 0 DD (SS Steven) and less than a month powercreep him (Ash & SST Red) i stopped caring about pairs just for meta reasons

[little briar]

Finally decided to tackle some Legendary Arena battles and I hit over 50k gems, woo

There's some I still can't do yet but I'm at least getting the normal mode ones out of the way

[drowsy saddle]

#1009562367803261078 if you need some help with clears

[sweet plaza]

This channel would be so good for me but I'm so bad with shit like this that I sort of just ignore all advice and go "but maybe I'm just one scout away..."

[vestal leaf]

Hope you never try real life gambling

Because "I'm one ticket away from jackpot" would ruin your life

[feral vale]

How is everyone’s goals going?

[lofty relic]

87k gems today

[feral vale]

NICE

[lofty relic]

last stretch is not to fall to the frogs and get that 100k, the final test

[feral vale]

Yeah the closest point is always hard.

[little briar]

Eyyy nice :D

[lofty relic]

hope everyone else also getting started well for this new year!

lots to come probably

never too late to start saving

[feral vale]

For sure! I ended up with a pity and now I’ve gotten back to where I was before.

Just takes time

[lofty relic]

[signal halo]

When is half anni?

[lofty relic]

+anni

huh

that usually works

[feral vale]

Oh yeah I forgot

[lofty relic]

https://i.imgur.com/gJxRgCN.png

[feral vale]

Um I couldn’t do +101 in a post.

Usually works ^^;

[lofty relic]

i'll see/ask what's up

[feral vale]

Thanks!

[signal halo]

How many pities would be advisable to save for half anni? 3?

If I'm specifically waiting for it

[feral vale]

There’s usually three units for anniversary.

So yes.

[lofty relic]

+anni

hmm

[feral vale]

[vestal leaf]

Gonna expect 2.5 trio to rerun in April/june at this rate ngl

[hard wave]

Would be nice since it’ll be hard to go for them and the new ones

[lean mango]

Oops miscounted when NY Lisia is coming so I'll just be reaching 100k

[signal halo]

Since rallies won't count for the overall gem amount for january

Will there be any rally coming up in the following days/month?

I think if I fully control myself, I could achieve 4 to 5 pities by half anni

[lean mango]

VAs usually have a twitter rally so probably

[signal halo]

That might also require luck to some extent

But 3 pities are guaranteed

[lean mango]

nice

[hard wave]

It could be next month since the va is over 2 months tho

[signal halo]

Not a big deal in the gem count regard

I think I came to terms with which banners I'm going to pull/skip

And how I'm going to approach those

[deft glen]

54.5k

That's the most I've had

[feral vale]

That’s pretty good!

[timber wren]

don’t forget to do battle villa, we have a day left

[feral vale]

I did mine a while ago

[little briar]

I think I have like 10 stages left in the Villa so I may not be able to do it

[feral vale]

Need help with teams? You can ask in the Battle Villa channel.

There’s good ones that can clear the stages without a full recovery.

[drowsy saddle]

#1009564564821639379 pins

[little briar]

Gonna have to remember this next time, thank you

I have 9 stages left and I have no recovery / units left since I bum rushed everything else

So we'll see if this helps tomorrow

Arena wise, I just need to finish Cressalia and Uxie and I'm all done with that

[lunar topaz]

Skyla Cyrus and Sycamorw can clear villa just fine

Without restores

[drowsy saddle]

You should be fine: just quit the stage and re-try it if a unit dies. Or ask what are you doing wrong if that situation repeats.
Sycamore/Cyrus/potion unit should have no problem with it. And you have six more potential spots for potion units.

[little briar]

Alright, I'll give it a shot tomorrow with them

I'm still sorta new-ish in some aspects so I did not realize how unkillable Xerneas is until slapping him into my Arena teams and how good the sync is

[chrome nest]

Hot take: the extra rewards for summoning master fairs are a scam

This is the exact same guy that yolo’d on 3 master fairs and failed

[lean mango]

Doesn't feel like a hot take

[tardy fiber]

I used to pull for coins on 3 MF banners, but then i realised...thats 15k gems wasted that almost halfway for a pity, then i never do it again

Wait 3 banners are 45k

Yep i just wasted a pity

[chrome nest]

Also I don’t think I’m the only one who says this but if I have 1/3 or 2/3 of the Anni units for that specific time I need to have the other, I think my brain hurts or it’s just fomo

[drowsy saddle]

Well, some people do like to collect stuff. The question is: what's your goal in this game? Completing released sets or getting specific units?

[chrome nest]

Doing my best to save gems and get what I like

[tardy fiber]

I skipped anni units if they are not a fave, skipped anniraihan, ssacynthia, sstred, ash

[drowsy saddle]

So you don't care about those last anni units? Yeah, that's FOMO. Imagine getting a fave and saying "Here go two more pities for random pairs"

[chrome nest]

Yeah I think I need more self control

Then again I have green rayquaza as a substitute for Anni Steven

[rotund sleet]

gacha disease

get well soon

[feral vale]

Time for tender loving care to treat the gacha disease!

[tardy fiber]

We need Nurse Joy to cure us

But man, i didn't expect people to be attracted to annisteven without faves factor...i thought he is not even meta

I wonder if he can gain lots of sales later

[tough oriole]

Ooh, Dr Ralsei

[feral vale]

There’s always Steven simps tbh

[tardy fiber]

Yep but palki doesn't get tempted by faves reason, just want to complete trio collection

Not even meta reason as well like he can remove weather

[feral vale]

His attack sucks

And I’ve only completed trios if I like all three.

Which the Johtrio and 3rd Anni trio are.

[tardy fiber]

Same, like half anni trio, i only collected 2 because raihan is not fave...so i wonder why people get tempted so much

[tardy fiber]

Need that 3* flying gear copium

My 150 annisteven only have 306 atk, that gear can help a bunch

[feral vale]

Zinnia tho

She gets Dragon Ascent after mega and its really good damage

[tardy fiber]

Yep but she's better for dragon damage, well i guess annisteven can still help for flying physical damage...as lysandre/ssethan/anniskyla are all special damage

[feral vale]

Zinnia’s Dragon Ascent is Flying……

Did you not know that?

LMAO ANNI STEVEN’S ATTACK IS 254

[tardy fiber]

Probably yours, not my annisteven

Still good though to clear flying weak as he doesn't need sync to access...unless you using aerial ace zinnia

[feral vale]

||He’s EX’d||, but still doesn’t match Zinnia lmao

[hard wave]

Does he reach 1k with that grid

[tardy fiber]

More because i use anniskyla

He is my go to for flying weak wisex2, ssethan for sentryx2

But man, i still missing few physical / special coverage for my faves...well at least Giovanni psystrike can help me if psychic weak wisex2 appears

[tough oriole]

He can still off type 2k points

[hard wave]

Hopefully his pb and ex reruns before we get that

Maybe a psychic phys striker with psychic fangs or smth

[tardy fiber]

Thank you DeNa for Gio

I try sssteven zen headbutt but its not working

It only flinches, never kills...good guy sssteven

Psystrike ftw

[chrome nest]

Psychic weak stage with wise entry x2 when

[compact pasture]

[lunar topaz]

Giovani can beat ghost week lucian pre sync with an F2P and shadow ball I think he should be fine for a sentry entry psychic stage

[upbeat lotus]

You mean wise entry?

Well you can click Psystrike

[tardy fiber]

Yep gonna use him for wise entryx2

I got too many psychic that can clear sentryx2

Psystrike is the best

[upbeat lotus]

zen headbutt deoxys

[tardy fiber]

Doesn't work better i use tate

Oh right, psychic terrain gladion

That will boost his physical sync

[chrome nest]

Incase anyone has master fairs, do any of you ever take advantage of the master passive ability?

I don’t because I believe it’s a waste of effort

If you beat the stage without a full master passive effect than what’s the point of maxing it out

[drowsy saddle]

Master passives, just like theme skills, should not be your main focus while teambuilding.
If you need a unit that buffs attack and you have an on-region unit that does it - great! If you don't, do not force it.

[tardy fiber]

Depends if its a regional content like daily bp region battle

[lunar topaz]

Yes lel

[tardy fiber]

Also of i only consider to max if its type teamworks master passive, the region is only good for region buff contents. For example, my water faves...only got 3 currently but sskris from Johto, archie from hoenn, djgloria from galar...i use them together for water weak, so my region passives are not even maxed out

Team synergy > maxing region master passives

[tawny cedar]

Damn 31k this month

So I'll save 25k this month

So i will guarantee a unit in kalos va part 2

[sly breach]

Wait i just saw the new year login like info in game and it says up to 60k gems but gem count from datamine says 31k, why the discrepancy?

[summer goblet]

its just givaway

only the winners wins

so its not guarantee at all

[sly breach]

Oh right i remember that stuff when i had my old account i got 500 gems

[feral vale]

You probably skimmed that news ^^;;;;;;

[sly breach]

Oh well no point in dreaming of pulling N then

[summer goblet]

it should be enough to pity 1 by the end of the month

[mental skiff]

So do the 60k lottery affect overall gems count?

[sly breach]

Am saving for ss lusamine, and i really think serena zyguard will re run so i need all the pity i can get

[feral vale]

No, it’s just for the winner.

[mental skiff]

ah nice

I just hope i win 3k gems

[summer goblet]

well good luck to anyone winning this

i sure need the 60k gems for sure

[mental skiff]

too much money is never a good thing

[summer goblet]

you don't know that

[mental skiff]

Expectation: 60000
Reality: 600

[summer goblet]

well, for 99% of all the players that is

lol

[upbeat lotus]

*300

[summer goblet]

yep, so even more insulting

well 300 gems is def ok

[mental skiff]

getting 300 gems is like winning lottery tho

[summer goblet]

nah its for everyone who participated

[mental skiff]

At least on January 1st the reward still abundant

[summer goblet]

ye

[grand bramble]

I hope I get something from the giveaway

[upbeat lotus]

free gems are always good

[feral vale]

Same tbh

[summer goblet]

whether its 300 or 60k gems

[grand bramble]

I always dream big you know

[mental skiff]

Wish discord has feature to block you from visit gatcha and flex so i wont have to witness 60k give aways

[upbeat lotus]

you can mute the channel

[feral vale]

And hide it

[summer goblet]

just be strong and don't look

[mental skiff]

my hand still find it way

[summer goblet]

not that it applies to me or anything

[mental skiff]

But to be real if 60000 gems happen it will end my journey to hunt rerun seasonal tho

Time to

[summer goblet]

If I do win the 60k gem, i will be closer to Chest's first recorded gem milestone than ever before

before, it was a distant dream unobtainable by just anyone

but now, its seem like a possibility

[upbeat lotus]

with 60k gems i can secure 2 pities

[mental skiff]

goodluck tho...

[summer goblet]

let's all dream big

[cunning swan]

I have 62k right now...

dena, mind doubling that number for me?

[mental skiff]

ok i will pray for 6000 gems

Will give me 1 pity

[summer goblet]

i have like 399k gems in total so will be a good fast-track to half a mil gem count

[mental skiff]

the chance to get more than 3000 gems look bad tho even when you dont count the chance to win 300 gems

[strange topaz]

i won 3k last year

this year will be 500

[mental skiff]

hopefully

[strange topaz]

I will say tho if I do get a good chunk that'll change my mind on rolling anni steven

[mental skiff]

Second prize is 12k tho so shouldnt let that change your saving mentality

[strange topaz]

is it

[feral vale]

Honestly even just the 300 gems should let you stick to your saving mentality.

[strange topaz]

I dont remember what it was last year but is it worse this year

[mental skiff]

Do i miss any holiday or any important event?

[tardy fiber]

Half anniv?

Wait anniraihan on December? He was a half anniv unit

[mental skiff]

March

[mental skiff]

He is seasonal + 2th anni so i expect he will comeback like Lilie,N,Steven

[tardy fiber]

So it wont be sstred and ssacynthia will be the one that reruns in this time period instead?

[mental skiff]

oh forgot they are 2.5 half anni

But i think they will rerun 2.5 anni first...

[tardy fiber]

Yep probably rerun on march

As they didn't rerun on last anni

[mental skiff]

march will have new pair tho

[tardy fiber]

So probably rerun on half anniv

Yep rerun + new like every festive seasonals

[mental skiff]

I dont think they will rerun past anni pair on anni day it will cause confusion

[feral vale]

I doubt they will.

[tardy fiber]

So it cannot be predicted like the current anniv 2021 pairs

So just prepare 36.6k

[mental skiff]

Beside SS Serena also 2.5 anni i guess

[tardy fiber]

It will come when it comes

[feral vale]

We don’t know.

I wouldn’t put that down like we were told that in news or something.

[tardy fiber]

Yes

Only festive seasonals have high chance to rerun on same period

Even the spring units still rerun during spring although it changes to sc this year

[mental skiff]

I didnt predict 2.5 annj rerun on half anni tho... I predict they will rerun in December tho

[tardy fiber]

Well hope that you didn't depend on your predictions so much as it is kinda uncharted waters for some of those units rerun period, so still do your savings accordingly... didn't want like you thought they will come in December and poof it comes on May/October and you didn't have gems that time

[mental skiff]

not much a problem the only thing i want from raihan is flygon and sandstorm for cynthia... That why i put color orange on that month to indicate that it is not compulsory

[tardy fiber]

Yep at least palbea/palmarnie/summermarnie are guaranteed to rerun during that period

Although it will be in that super seasonal banner scout rerun with bunch others

Well got pity, no problem

[mental skiff]

Yeah luckily this month have good enough so i can pity pal marnie

if i dont have good luck i will move Pal Bea to selected scout

[tardy fiber]

Hopefully you have good luck, only 4 units will be in it

[mental skiff]

all 4 is wanted so it is actually 2% banner for me

[tardy fiber]

Neat

Cannot wait for select scout, and i gonna hopium for lottery gems so that i can recoup select scout costs

[mental skiff]

you go for ||SS Bredan||?

[tardy fiber]

Nah from the revealed pic, i might get one of them for sskorrina dupe...the other one will need to have either ssleon/sshilda/djgloria for me to get...if not, skip

[mental skiff]

10k paid gems tho

[tardy fiber]

I won't chase 5/5 grids so i didn't have any pressure for N/Lysandre dupes

[tardy fiber]

Yeap same like what i spend last January to 3/5 my Lysandre and get my first N

[mental skiff]

Dont think you should do that now since new survey, people will complain about it... Dena might do something soon i guess

[tardy fiber]

Only need to complete these guys:
Striker: 1/5 ssethan, 2/5 ssleon, 1/5 sshilda
Tech: 2/5 djgloria, 1/5 sskorrina, 1/5 falliris, ||?/5 ssdiantha||
Support: 2/5 cobalion, 1/5 mesprit

That's all and I'm gonna done for now

[mental skiff]

look not that bad if only collect candy

[tardy fiber]

Next tech candy will go to djgloria if she is not available in select, if got, will go to ||ssdiantha|| or sskorrina

Fall Iris i will wait to get her dupe from march seasonal select

Will be fine if DeNa doesn't add like 3 faves on February or March then the move level hunt continues

[mental skiff]

how many legendary left beside Hisui and Padea

[tardy fiber]

A lot: i need to count back

[mental skiff]

Alola VA on April or May will cost you huge amount tho

[upbeat lotus]

Alola VA

imagine they doing Hau PB instead of Solgaleo

[chrome nest]

Ultra beast galore

[upbeat lotus]

[mental skiff]

[chrome nest]

Alola Va in a nutshell: Ultra beast galore

[mental skiff]

Hope Serena has good Ub

[mental skiff]

True tho

Takana paper thingy and Parasite thingy

cant wait for them

[chrome nest]

I imagine most of the UBs will be summoned by an ultra wormhole

Then it will be closed before more come to pasio

[mental skiff]

Speaking of UB pokemon official made 3D UB short lately tho... Look awesome

[chrome nest]

It’s like a horror movie B Roll

[mental skiff]

Yeah UB freely go anywhere tho

[upbeat lotus]

UB raiding Pasio lets go

[mental skiff]

Still like it tho better than pokemon Go graphic

[chrome nest]

If pogo is willing to make a horror movie it’s about the ultra beast let’s face it

[mental skiff]

Would be nice to have Nihilego Horror movie

"The invasion of body snatcher"

[tardy fiber]

Ok counted, got 40

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

Faves:

Kanto(4) - Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Melmetal

Johto(1) - Raikou.

Hoenn(3) - Regice, Registeel, Jirachi

Sinnoh(7) - Uxie, Azelf, Heatran, Regigigas, Arceus, Manaphy, Phione.

Unova(4) - Terrakion, Virizion, Thundurus, Meloetta.

[mental skiff]

forgot to x2 it because of shinny

Btw Paradox is legendary

[tardy fiber]

Yep im prepared at least shiny in pokemas is good because have different kit, stats and weakness...not like mainline games in which they have exact same stuff

[tardy fiber]

They are like UBs with 570 total stats so i gonna collect them

And cannot breed

[tough oriole]

Weird how the game code says that one group are legends but the other group isn’t

[tardy fiber]

Also if i gonna ignore paradoxes means ignoring koraidon, miraidon as well as they are paradoxes too

They are box arts as well

[tough oriole]

But they are special little dudes 🥺

[tardy fiber]

Well they are paradoxes

[mental skiff]

weird paradox

[tough oriole]

Slither Wing is also a special little dude, wish there were more cute future forms

[tardy fiber]

Just like solgaleo and lunala and necrozma also came from different dimensions so they are actually UBs

[tough oriole]

But the game code says they aren’t UBs
Why does game freak have to be so confusing

[mental skiff]

At least they are low in quantity paradox is just a abundant in the wild i guess

[tough oriole]

They aren’t abundant tho

But i suppose ubs are one per visit

[tardy fiber]

I thought you can keep hunting UBs unless they are stakataka and blacephalon in USUM just enter ultra space

[mental skiff]

👀see people go shiny hunt

[tardy fiber]

Also they are in Galar raid dens or something

[mental skiff]

Imagine future Makuhita... Just a Makuhita with metal plate

[tough oriole]

Takes a few minutes to find one White Wormhole for UBs, let alone it being the right one
And in Galars adventures, maybe you can only catch one? I forget, but they are treated like legends

People always talk about how broken wormhole shiny hunts are, but you only get one encounter every few minutes

[tardy fiber]

They are just special, not like there's only single one...even Pasio have 2 kyurems

Others got shiny difference

But these kyurem exact same

[tough oriole]

One is nice tho

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

But my faves made me strong to avoid temptation, man 61 unreleased faves...pretty sure i nailed every type coverage once I'm done collecting all of them

So no need to chase meta rats or frogs or what not

And there's chance for shiny or other form pairs as well

[tough oriole]

[tardy fiber]

But at least they are faves so collecting them, completing them, invest on them, using them, will give me happiness

Enough getting swayed by non faves, and later they are left collecting dust unused

[mental skiff]

Research says using favs sync pair increase life-span tho

[tardy fiber]

Well will shorten if it keeps costing a pity

But it is fun to see this list growing

[upbeat lotus]

my current saving list for past sync pairs
||will select Korrina next month and wait for Feb and March datamine to see if i should pull Diantha or not||

look again at it i think it's really big

[tardy fiber]

Well at least good chance

The pal units will all be in same banner and you want all of them so kinda good

But yeap seeing sssteven in waiting for selects, i not sure what's on DeNa's minda by making all VA pokefairs rerun in select

[cunning swan]

I don't have specific units in mind, but. Tierlist of characters I want to pull in pokemas:
||1. Must-have, absolute faves, my babies: Kanto trio, Silver, Arven, Sada, Turo, Yellow (haha very copium)
2. Must-have to complete my collection: All game male protags
3. I love you but I don't mind skipping: Steven, Cynthia, N, Kris, Lyra, Gladion, Morty, Wallace, Rika, Bede, Lance
I might consider characters outside of this list depending on their outfits||

[tardy fiber]

Only lucas rerun before in main character scout

[cunning swan]

Redlax also reran in the main character scout iirc?

[tough oriole]

Yup

It was them and gloria

[lunar topaz]

34K just from one month???

Starting the year off strong

[tardy fiber]

Redlax got better treatment, he and cblue and sserika and ssmisty actually reruns during kanto VA rerun...all VA rerun after that doesn't rerun VA units

Oh right this select have ssmay and ssbrendan, i wonder if sssteven also in it

[tough oriole]

I hope that so few people buy the 5k select scouts that they stop doing them

[upbeat lotus]

i cant join in because ||Korrina is there||

[mossy pecan]

Me buying both

[tardy fiber]

For now im getting one of them

The other select need to wait for full list

[mossy pecan]

I'm getting either SSKorrina or SSBrendan for sure. Other one idk who I'm getting just yet, I'm a hardcore Dialga fan so hoping no other of my faves take it

[tardy fiber]

But man, i thought they stopped doing 5k selects...but well recently also have 5k pokefair select

[sturdy flower]

x25 scam

if they were at least rate up during it

[tardy fiber]

Wow big gems next reset

3240 gems

Also 10 because duplicate 4* event badge

Gonna 5* erika vileplume

[deft glen]

I want SS Brendan and Lucas, though if Dojo Gloria is in the Lucas banner I will be very sad

[sturdy flower]

maybe not sad but i will skip one of the banners and save

[mental skiff]

may be - 500+ gems i see the day heart unite release is 580 gems but that day i got more... so they might count heart unit voucher collect 50/50 in this

[tardy fiber]

Well 1800 gems out of 3240 is from EBE

[mental skiff]

Yeah and 500 more from heart unit mission

[tardy fiber]

Oh because its timegated, so probably we didn't get whole gems of day 1 of unity gala event release

[deft glen]

Mine is looking like this at the moment

[mental skiff]

i wish i have more select option

Only thing i can affort is 4.0 anni select

[tardy fiber]

Nice, you guys all have smaller fave list than mine easier to complete

[sturdy flower]

but yours is only one unit right now!

[mental skiff]

chasing rerun is harder than new unit tho

[tardy fiber]

Oh right i didn't have any rerun as i already collected all that i want for now.

[mental skiff]

cant make new sync pair fav list when im still chasing rerun

[tardy fiber]

Ready for next reset big gems well select scout will take a chunk from it though

[mental skiff]

10k select + 1 pity

= 40k gems left

[tardy fiber]

And we still haven't yet touch January

So 31170 gems later

[mental skiff]

feb give 3 fav

[tardy fiber]

Kinda good for my collection and type coverage but bad for gems

Perhaps no MF for kalos VA part 2

Seems like they are leaning towards 5/5 pokefairs now

Probably more money

[mental skiff]

that surely will happen

[lapis pine]

My fav list of past sync pairs is just anni Steven

[tardy fiber]

But jokes on you DeNa, im happy with just 3/5

[mental skiff]

That is why they make|| ss diantha pokefair||

[tardy fiber]

Screw 5/5

I will be more tempted if 5/5 grids have less energy used like power boost grids

But they are not

[mental skiff]

think about that i wont 4/5 cynthia for dust kicker

[tardy fiber]

I got too many faves, so every candies count...i cannot freely 4/5 or 5/5...just gonna hope that i got their copy during select scout multi, like my ssdawn is 4/5 due to that

Got a copy of her while selecting for ssleon

[mental skiff]

I have not many but still need like dozen of candy

Especially tech

[deft glen]

I am scared of the possibility of Legends Arceus sync pairs dropping anytime

[mental skiff]

3 marnie is tech and i still have bunch of tech need candy

[mental skiff]

may be on Hisui VA after Galar VA end

[deft glen]

I'll prob leave mine at 1/5, too many techs, too little candies

[mental skiff]

1/5 kinda boring tho at least 2/5 we can have full grid

cant stand 4 energy left cant be used

[tardy fiber]

My cobalion currently at 2/5...cannot wait to 3/5...as 1/5 and 2/5 are pretty meh for bp master units

Need 3/5 for the good stuffs

[mental skiff]

i will get BP master unit to 3/5 next next year tho i hope

Cant wait if half anni has free BP

[hard wave]

Mine is kinda big

A few MFs and tech/support PFs and ny lisia

[sturdy flower]

there's no one they can mf from kalos

if they gave Diantha pf

[hard wave]

Zerena rerun

[sturdy flower]

Sycamore and Lysandre are less popular

then no one else really is left

it will be spotlights for new characters and maybe Emma pf

[hard wave]

Lysandre might get an alt like cyrus did and there’s also 2 elite 4 and 2 rivals to give spotlights to

[sturdy flower]

and Lysandre pf too

[reef river]

Is emma more popular than literally anyone else? Maybe >5% of people who played XY even know who she is

[upbeat lotus]

She is one of the forgotten characters

Like most Kalos characters

[hard wave]

Did many not complete the postgame? I didnt do it for a while after finishing the story personally

[reef river]

How is she forgotten for people who didnt even meet her

Idk what the stats are for postgame but a lot of people finish games when the credits roll

[sturdy flower]

Bede is pokefair while being a literally who

[vestal leaf]

Bede appears more on screen than 99% of Kalos characters

[reef river]

Bede prob shouldnt be a pokefair but its silly to compare him to emma

[vestal leaf]

1% being the main group

But tbh

He appears more than Trevor and tierno still

Lol

So it's more like "any Kalos character aside Serena/Calem"

And lysandre

Also it was kinda obvious the moment they made Marnie fair

That bede and eventual hop alt would be fair

[unborn pier]

I played a bit of the Kalos postgame but had no idea about the Looker stuff

[vestal leaf]

It's literally

"oops hope you looked into this one hallway"

[cunning swan]

The 3 galar rivals are popular enough to be pokefairs tbf

[mental skiff]

they skip january so they can give Serena and Calem one more alt... planned out

[modern moss]

I swear, every time the game makes me update, there's an issue with my paid gems from the two gem bundles and I have to contact support.

This time, instead of the game not letting me claim my paid gems, it shows that I already claimed my paid gems in the Claimed tab even though I haven't received the gems. Ever since the update, I've been stuck at the same amount of paid gems. I've been checking my paid gem count every day and I'm getting nothing.

[tardy jolt]

In February it will be one year since Marnie’s last alt and almost 2years since Galar’s MF, waiting for SS Marnie and GMoltres to fill both gaps

This and (hopefully) MF Diantha and Magearna are probably my most wanted pairs and the ones that keep me in saving mode

[crisp oracle]

Veterans, what is your best gem saving and stacking methods?

[feral vale]

Put together a list of favs.

Then use your motivation for that when they run for the first time or rerun again ^^

[sinful pelican]

Personally, I look at the flaws in the kit of the unit that is tempting me. Also manifesting about alts of favs helps lol

[wind nymph]

Is this the thingy that u guys told me?

[feral vale]

This game is about prioritizing what you should pull and what to skip.

[feral vale]

Yes that was from me.

[sinful pelican]

Yea

[crisp oracle]

Yeah. Anni Lillie is deeply flawed (Sync is underwhelming) but she is a fav

So i saved for her

[wind nymph]

What is this about if I may ask?

[crisp oracle]

Only a few thing on my fav list, Diantha is one

[sinful pelican]

About saving gems

[mental skiff]

yeah

[crisp oracle]

And a Cynthia because I don't have a Cynthia yet

[feral vale]

Saving gems.

[timber wren]

check the pins #1010275375730925638 message

[sinful pelican]

I love diantha but Im succumbing to NY lisia

I hate myself

[feral vale]

Don’t beat yourself up

Stuff happens

[unkempt vortex]

Welcome to gacha

[crisp oracle]

I mostly want NY Lisia for the physical fairy attack, not favorite

[sinful pelican]

Thankfully diantha stays till march so it doesnt ruin my plans

[timber wren]

what is the draw for lisia for you

[crisp oracle]

Probably a good sign not to summon

[unkempt vortex]

[crisp oracle]

Physical Fairy Strike. I also need fairy syncers

[feral vale]

Also a few days ago, I calculated…around 20K before she comes.

[sinful pelican]

The huge fairy damage and the cute outfit

[crisp oracle]

SS Dia?

[sinful pelican]

Diantha? Its 24k

[timber wren]

yeah she is a pretty straightforward striker covering a type that not everyone has good access too. but not necessary.

[feral vale]

Yeah I did say approximately ^^;

[sinful pelican]

I can pity Lisia and later pity SS dia too. But if misty happens on palentine, Im done

[crisp oracle]

I also struggle with rock, but rock seems a lot more common of a CS weakness. Probably why im going for Diantha

[wind nymph]

So... If I like them both and idk who to pick, what should I do?

[timber wren]

anni lillie functions pretty similarly. you click TM and then just click the big four bar damage move

[feral vale]

What’s your current gem count?

[crisp oracle]

What do you need? Ghost or Fire damage?

[wind nymph]

700

[feral vale]

Here’s the thing.

[timber wren]

wait until the next update to decide

[mental skiff]

be more decisive you cant have both even if you saving hard

[sinful pelican]

#1006350210450079784 for that if you dont want to save and are ready to risk ending up with nothing

[feral vale]

We recommend saving 36.6k.

[timber wren]

being able to wait to pull is a good exercise in saving, and helps you move out of the hype window when those banners first launch

[wind nymph]

I will try to save, for now

[mental skiff]

i have like 2 pity MF already

Learn from experience

[crisp oracle]

I personally use the 50K benchmark, but these last two multies have been hell to my gems

Common sentiment I assume

[wind nymph]

How do u guys end up saving so much ;;;

I wish I had that much self control...

[mental skiff]

let me change my name

[unkempt vortex]

Set goals for pairs you like

Skip everything you don’t care about

[crisp oracle]

Self-control, try to get over the FOMO. It takes months to control the feeling, but with experience it naturally comes.

After a while, you will lose the want to scout on every unit

[unkempt vortex]

Gacha games thrive off fomo

[mental skiff]

learn from mistake

[wind nymph]

Fomo?

[unkempt vortex]

Fear of missing out

[crisp oracle]

scouting on Maxie before anni...

Although Maxie has been carrying me on Grass and Ground. I regret nothing.

[mental skiff]

lose 12k gems on archie tho

[unkempt vortex]

Gacha games will slap the “limited time only” on units to make players feel pressured to pull for them

“Get it now or you’ll never get it later”

[wind nymph]

I remember when I tried to spend all my gems to just get Ash...

And didn't even get him once

[mental skiff]

see

[crisp oracle]

Yeah, RNG can be a monster

[wind nymph]

Game is bad with me!

I'm being a good gal!

[mental skiff]

just enjoy the saving

[feral vale]

Saving is key.

You want the unit, gotta save for the guarantee.

Look at my username, I’ve saved 37k

If I can, you can.

[mental skiff]

I start to boom in unit after 3 month of saving

[wind nymph]

Hmm...

When will Scarlet and Violet characters be added?

[mental skiff]

Next next year at minimum

[crisp oracle]

Im now 3K below Pity, Anni N pushed me down 😔

[mental skiff]

i reach pity tomorow

Almost wasted 24k gem on winter banner

[feral vale]

I had to pity C Calem, but I got back in like a month.

[mental skiff]

January is best month to save

[unkempt vortex]

Yea I should be back to pity next month after pitying HNessa

[wind nymph]

I will try to save then!

Hopefullyy my sanity can handle it

[mental skiff]

I think i will start pal strong

[unkempt vortex]

Pal bea here I come

[mental skiff]

make fav list

[crisp oracle]

Ive only seen pity once, but thats maybe just because i only got for one copy then just go the candy route

[wind nymph]

Will do!

[mental skiff]

Have rerun saving list

mine is a bit complicate but be mindful rerun unit and new soon to come

[sturdy flower]

Normie and his insider knowledge

[mental skiff]

[viscid flare]

Only units i want atm are ss brendan and ss korrina (ill have to not go full monkey on diantha)

Need help

[hard wave]

I have alot of pairs id like…. Also maybe cynthia and N so I could use them in lodge

• whatever pairs I like that r released in the future

[little briar]

Thank you for the suggestion, managed to clear the Villa

[feral vale]

You ||gonna do the select scout?||

[feral vale]

Am I dumb or do I not see N on the list at all?

I know his square was kinda…monotone last time it was updated, so maybe it got removed?

Huh, regular Cynthia is gone too??

Wait did they take off Lodge Poké Fairs?

[sturdy flower]

that's weird

They aren't limited because they are on the lodge banner? What kinda logic is that?

[feral vale]

That’s what I wanna think, but it’s honestly dumb.

[sturdy flower]

might as well remove the units from the anime collab ticket then, and kantrio

[feral vale]

T_T

Idk who runs that so idk who to ask

[hard wave]

For some reason the lodge PFs were removed

So N Cynthia Raihan and Marnie arent there anymore

Last list they were just grayed out

Also u/xtraterrestre is the one that makes them I think

[feral vale]

Yeah but I don’t know who they are in this server ^^;

[hard wave]

Ah

[feral vale]

Hmmm…

[viscid flare]

Ye but just 1

[strange topaz]

this kinda makes sense. The lodge units are always there now, just terrible rates. Kanto trio is time specific and you can only guarantee 1 from the ticket. Same case with some of the anime collab units (Alder, Lance, Steven, SS Cynthia)

[sturdy flower]

they are still pokefairs for all cases and purposes though

i can't get them without rolling on that one banner

[sand crown]

gray area but I lean towards keeping them as limited units. Unless people are going to go to 5 pities on that lodge scout banner

[tardy fiber]

They are limited units because we cannot get them using this even in the future

Oh right, the only treatment this month is kukui? Is there any 3*, 4* that got ?

[vernal glade]

Ya I don’t think summoning for coins is worth it

[tardy fiber]

Summon for move coins are bad, i did it on anni 2021 before this and i feel regret... well as 5 multis on 3 MF banners actually costs 45k and yeap i just loss way more than a pity amount just for coins

Could have guaranteed one unit and have leftovers with it

[sturdy flower]

Even if you got 2 coins for every multi, that's 24 coins for a pity

That's why every other multi is 5* PUs

that always makes it a bad deal

[tardy fiber]

Coins are just side gifts while pulling a banner and shouldn't be your main goal in a banner...end goal supposed to be getting the featured unit

[sturdy flower]

It would make sense to pull for them if average per multi was 2+ coins though.

But it is not so there's just no discussion period.

[tardy fiber]

Its only 9 strike, 6 tech, 3 support coins for 45k

[sturdy flower]

ah right, that's another argument

it's mainly strike coins, the most useless ones

if it was all tech...

[tardy fiber]

Might as well buy the coin bundle if you got the money...20 yellow coins, and your gems amount increases and does not decrease sounds better than 45k for those coins

[mental skiff]

1 coin bundle ~ 6 sync orb bundle tho

Coin bundle give 5000 gems and 6 sync orb bundle is 18000 gems so kinda lose 13000 paid gems for a coin candy

[tardy fiber]

But this discussion before this is about spending gems on master fair banners to get move coins

[tardy fiber]

So its this

45k gems for those coins

[mental skiff]

👀all sound bad deal

I once chased that

[tardy fiber]

Well at least can use f2p gems but is it worth it to spend 45k free gems

I rather buy coin bundle and add paid gems as well as getting full yellow candy

[mental skiff]

kinda

[tardy fiber]

But seems like there's no need for me to buy coin bundle on January as i can form 2 move candies on January and only 1 fave appear

[reef garden]

Is my wish list good?

I know there are only 3 characters but they're the only ones I care about

[tardy fiber]

Good but there's 4 N, hope you can get all of them

[reef garden]

I have all of them

So I'm waiting for the next one

[tardy fiber]

Neat, so you already completed for now

[reef garden]

Yeah

[tardy fiber]

I got 1 fave this month

[hard wave]

Marnie was on the gauntlet banner tho so id say they r still limited

[hard wave]

Did u atleast get lillie and n?

[tardy fiber]

Its limited if we cannot get them through and in general pool

Like bugscyther

Still sad that bugscyther still didn't get while mistyduck, bluecanine and cgio gets it

[mental skiff]

23 NY ticket

[tardy fiber]

Really? the one that have miniscule chance for pokefair?

[hard wave]

I wish they’d rerun him, he’s one of the 5 3/4* im missing

[mental skiff]

Can cross red out rerun hunt if dream come true

[mental skiff]

[hard wave]

Its only kantrio

[mental skiff]

Bigger than winning 60k gems so i will take a dose of hopium

[hard wave]

I have leaf 1/5 red 3/5 and blue 5/5, so im hoping to pull a few leafs and maybe 2 reds for his expansion

[tardy fiber]

Neat hope to get ssred and ssleaf

Although i wont use them

But thats 20 gem from sync pair stories

[hard wave]

I used them quite alot but I prefer using ss hilda now and I have better units to use for potions

[reef river]

Kinda sad its only kantrio but if they all get 5/5 eventually i guess extra copies are nice

[hard wave]

SS Blue is still a very useful support tho

[mental skiff]

SS leaf is my fav eversince i joint poma.... Love will give me 2 more SS Leaf

[reef river]

No reason not to include the likes of cynthia or lance

Or steven

But w/e

[mental skiff]

I think we have bigger chance this year

[hard wave]

Doubt it

[mental skiff]

0.33% may be

[hard wave]

We have like 65 spotlights now

I think they’ll have the same rates

Either way id like to pull some red/leaf copies and save some candies

[mental skiff]

a man can dream

[tardy fiber]

Last Jan ny tix only give me kimono Grimsley

Hope got some luck this time

[hard wave]

I wish they included the ones from last yr as well

I started like a month after but iirc it was cynthia and her ss, lance, steven, rachel, and sawyer?

I have ss cynthia but id like to get cynthia for lodge and the other 2 for when we get them in lodge

[tough oriole]

Iirc you needed 2 to pull once? Could be wrong

I’ll check the mines

Nvm, it’s one each

[tardy fiber]

Its a daily simulator, can compare the results like doing 23 dailies

Or 23 singles

If keep getting 3* then its a bad sign

[strange topaz]

Fair

I’m just trying to make sense of the person who decided to exclude the units if i wasn’t being clear

[vernal glade]

I don’t mind getting nothing from the tickets. Basically free resources for me.

[strange topaz]

I do think the NY ticket pool will be expanded this year as well

From 4 to maybe like 8

[vernal glade]

Ya hopefully it isn’t just those three exclusives on those tickets.

But I’m starting to have a feeling it is.

[tardy fiber]

Hopefully, i rather 4/5 N / Lysandre / Gloria than getting 1/5 sskantrio as they are actually my faves

[wind nymph]

How is that many gems in one day even possible??

[tardy fiber]

1800 of it is from EBE

[wind nymph]

EBE?

[tough oriole]

Some of it would be from Anni Steven’s Heart’s United stages

[wind nymph]

..whats that, again?

[tardy fiber]

Yep extreme battle event

[wind nymph]

Ohhh

Ok didnt know that!

[feral vale]

Extreme Battle time

[wind nymph]

Whats a good team i should prepare for that?

Actually, I’ll go to the channels for the battle stuff for that

[feral vale]

#1009557516369281075 ask there.

[wind nymph]

I just said I’ll ask there instead you dont need to keep doing that every time i ask a question

[drowsy saddle]

There's a good chance you didn't know the exact channel for that, so you got redirected.

[feral vale]

That’s why I did it… :T

[hard wave]

Same but my first N/Gloria and maybe some lysandre copies, got him from the gauntlet banner and maxed ss blue from it as well

[sturdy plank]

did we not get 3240 gems today

[drowsy saddle]

Elaborate

[vale ivy]

As in, we do. What's your question

[drowsy saddle]

Oh hey, that's the amount of gems we got today.

[sturdy plank]

the bot say we get 1900 gems or is that an error in typing

[vale ivy]

Oh

[drowsy saddle]

We get gems from EB. daily missions, event missions, some more

Definitely more than 1900

[vale ivy]

I only look at the pin. Idt many of us here visit gen chat a lot tbh.

But yeah, 3240 should be the correct number

[feral vale]

Yeah the pins in here are useful.

[drowsy saddle]

The gem gains might be calculated differently depending on the source, so the correct question would be
"How do we get amount_of_gems listen in pins today?"

[vale ivy]

1900 is probably the outdated number, before Jan update dropped

[feral vale]

I also think the bot is off by a day?

Oh wait

It was, nvm

[mental skiff]

so sad reach pity without any pair... Winter banner is brutal

Btw start saving again gambate

[summer goblet]

After 3 long months of gem zenning, I have unofficially reach the mark of 400k gems

But only for a day before 2023

[feral vale]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[restive hull]

👀

[summer goblet]

yeah, its def not easy when I do plan to invest in Holiday Jasmine and C Serena soon

[restive hull]

why does this remind me of someone getting 400000 primogems in genshin

[summer goblet]

[tough oriole]

Exactly 400 000

[summer goblet]

well unoffically

i have paid gems in it

[brave orbit]

Still that’s a lot

How many paid vs unpaid

[summer goblet]

this amount

[brave orbit]

378K unpaid dangggggg

Congrats!

[summer goblet]

thank you

not the easiest feat that's for sure

[brave orbit]

Yeah very impressive I could never lmao

[summer goblet]

i will anybody can save if they put their mind into it, with a good amount of help

[tough oriole]

Help?

[drowsy saddle]

Denied

[drowsy saddle]

Hello I am Helper

[tough oriole]

Hello Helper, I am Winston

Oops wrong way

[summer goblet]

hahaha

[drowsy saddle]

Help in this thread I guess, there are lots of people who give helperful advice

[brave orbit]

I’m too addicted to pulling but I think once Calem leaves I will finally save again! Since I don’t have any pair that super interests me this datamine/update

So hopefully I can restart my saving journey

Since I haven’t actually saved in like 6-7 months lol

[hard wave]

Still have alot of pairs I want so idk how much ill be able to save

[brave orbit]

Rn I got to pity for Serena and am desperately trying to get Calem with what gems I have left before he leaves so we’ll see

[hard wave]

4 multis so far on lillie and havent gotten her yet either

[maiden kayak]

enough to pity?

if not dont bother

and cut your losses

[brave orbit]

No….

Yeah I probably should

[maiden kayak]

cut your losses

painful but necessary

[brave orbit]

I just feel like I’ve got Serena I might as well try for the perfect support for her since they’re built to be together

Cause how likely is it he’ll be rerun at some point

[summer goblet]

unless you pour paid gems into it

[maiden kayak]

thats so weak reason to pull them

dont ever do that

[brave orbit]

Yeah that’s probably best it’s just so tempting to try since idk if he’ll come back but you’re right objectively

[hard wave]

Still want to atleast get lisia

[maiden kayak]

when u ever wanna pull anything, u must have good / strong reasons to pull

the stronger the connections

[summer goblet]

honestly, it's the temptation and emotions that want us to pull

[maiden kayak]

the more u are likely that u wont regret at all

[brave orbit]

That makes sense

[maiden kayak]

of cos thats all after u have saved a pity

if theres any hesitation of pulling that jnut, u probably shouldnt

[brave orbit]

Yeah normally I just pull on fave characters/Pokémon (Hilda and Victini or any N pair) or pairs I think I would have fun using in the game (SS May, Champ Serena, I like debuffs lol)

[tough oriole]

||Serena alone already clears most stages without an OP support||

[brave orbit]

So in those cases I don’t have much regret

But for Calem I guess it’s diff

Since I just think his outfit is cool and he’s a good pair for Serena and not much other connection

[maiden kayak]

then ditch it

[summer goblet]

seriously how far are you in terms of pity

[brave orbit]

True you right

[maiden kayak]

u probably not a calem simp anyways

[brave orbit]

Not far at all let me check

Yeah I’m not lol

[summer goblet]

yeah its best to skip

[maiden kayak]

ditch the yolo mindset in gacha

that way its easier to save

enough horro stories in salt chat

[brave orbit]

70/400

[maiden kayak]

70?

[brave orbit]

And I think I get 5 more pulls or so before he leaves since I’m almost at one more rn

[summer goblet]

in terms of your gem count

[maiden kayak]

just cut your losses lol

[brave orbit]

Fair I guess then I can save to actually have enough for pity before my next pull

Thanks for the advice y’all appreciate it

Also idk what you mean by in terms of gem count
I have 2830 gems rn and am at 70/400 scout points as I used some paid daily discounts as I paid for the 1500 bundle to use on masters days and ended up caving a bit

[feral vale]

Well lemme give you some advice

Pitying a unit is 36.6k

You save free gems for that, then you pull for a unit you want.

Now, paid gems on the other hand

Are meant for selects, stuff like that.

[maiden kayak]

just always question yourself whether that unit is worth a pity

[brave orbit]

I see

Yeah I know the 36.6 and ideally I try to save till pity but most of the time a ton of units come out and I like multiple and so I pull on one before I have enough saved

[feral vale]

You need to prioritize.

[drowsy saddle]

Visit this place before pulling, we may talk you out of it

[feral vale]

You can’t get them all, and bad timings can happen.

[brave orbit]

Like Unova villain arc I was down bad lol since I’m a huge Unova simp but I got lucky thankfully so it worked out (though it ate all my gems)

[summer goblet]

well if you spend gems

[brave orbit]

But in other situations I’ve gotten bad luck and it hasn’t worked

[summer goblet]

you can always tried daily pulling

[brave orbit]

Ty I’ll try that

I don’t usually pay

[drowsy saddle]

Do you have a list of faves written down?
If not, try writing it down, short one, 5-7 names at most. It will prevent getting tempted by new units.

[summer goblet]

in that case, yeah just hard skip for now and come back another day

[brave orbit]

I’m like 80% F2P
I usually pay the $0.99 every masters day for the paid scout since I think it’s affordable and I don’t mind it
And I pay for a couple more attempts on faves that are leaving occasionally (done it like four times in the year and a half I’ve played the game)

Some of those times the payment has gotten me to pity

Other times it hasn’t

[summer goblet]

yeah def have a list of favs or some personal needs and evaluate which unit is worth the pity

[brave orbit]

But I’ve never spent more than like $20 on a scout I think I don’t really whale or anything

[tardy fiber]

88,940 today gonna wait for select scouts

[brave orbit]

That’s a good idea

I think my faves are tough since a lot of the time I pull for the Pokémon not the trainer

Since I used to play draft league so a lot of mons are near and dear to me

[summer goblet]

that's fine, do indeed save up to 36k gems first and evaluate if this unit is worth 36k gems to you

[tardy fiber]

We are the same, i like pokemons too 🤝

[brave orbit]

Yayyy

[summer goblet]

yeah i do love pokemon as well

[brave orbit]

Crazy

[drowsy saddle]

So what about the fave list? Do you have it?

[brave orbit]

No I’ll make one now

Should it only include trainers in game now

Or should it have people who aren’t there yet like yancy

[summer goblet]

nah it should be how you wanted it

[tardy fiber]

Use Sages Tiermaker...it really helps

[feral vale]

Both.

[brave orbit]

Yeah I use his tiermaker for planning legend gauntlet and my Home Screen lol

[feral vale]

There are trainers not in the game that people want.

[brave orbit]

It’s very useful

Got it

I’m on my phone rn so I’ll prob just write it out and make a fancy one with the tier maker tomorrow on my laptop

[tawny cedar]

After i finished full hearts United i have 700 gems

So 1800 from gala

So I'll have 2500 gems

Not 3240 which we were supposed to get

[summer goblet]

cool you do that

you just have to evaluate where your direction you want to go

[drowsy saddle]

Have you considered Story gem rewards?

[summer goblet]

battle with your favourite trainer/pokemon, strong units to blast through, or mix of both world

[brave orbit]

Will do! Thanks again everyone for the great advice will try to make a faves list and hit y’all up if I get tempted for something

[summer goblet]

or collect alts for the drips lol

[brave orbit]

Yeah I do that sometimes too lol

Definitely pulled on Hilda and Diancie mainly since I loved the outfit lol

But yeah I usually do a mix of strong meta units that I’d enjoy using and pairs I really like

[summer goblet]

if you want, you can dm me if you are struggling to save up to a pity and other stuff

[brave orbit]

Will do ty!

[summer goblet]

i personally help players reach their saving goals

[brave orbit]

These are my fave pairs I have so I’ll try to condense this into a list tomorrow since it’s like 2:30 am for me lol

And pick the ones I really like from both currently in game

And not in game

While I keep coping for Yancy

[feral vale]

That’s a sick af theme, where’d you get that?

[brave orbit]

Thank you!!! I made it myself lol

I just made the template in photoshop from some screenshots I took and then overlapped

[tawny cedar]

Ah yes,SSSteven is YouTube.

[brave orbit]

And then I used sages tiermaker to pull the images of the EX pairs I have and love

[feral vale]

Noice

[brave orbit]

Steven would be a sick YouTuber man

[feral vale]

It’s a rock YT channel lmao

[brave orbit]

Perfect lol

Pure geology

[brave orbit]

Ty! I’ll reach out to you if I’m having trouble :)

[feral vale]

🪨

[tardy fiber]

After that, it will be pretty dry for me till 12th...well at least i got 1 fave and 1 fave upgrade this upcoming month

[lean mango]

Honestly nice to see where I started from with 14,500 to 95k

[tardy fiber]

[feral vale]

Ooh, May!

Nice!

[lean mango]

You love to see it

[tardy fiber]

Two skip months

[lean mango]

So many gems

[tardy fiber]

November is harsh for me, its UnoVA right iirc?

[lean mango]

Think so ye

[tardy fiber]

Now that i have 150 faves, the sorting kinda messed up

As level 150 goes top of sorting order

[mental skiff]

2000 gems in saving

[lean mango]

So some of yours favs are just in different orders now?

[tardy fiber]

Yes, it still sort based on date acquired though, just between level 150

Level 140 also the same but still level 150 goes top while less levels goes down

[lunar topaz]

Pog gems today

[mental skiff]

150 legendary in this game?

[drifting dagger]

So, how many gems we got today?

I'm curious

[mental skiff]

Around 2700 gems

[lean mango]

Vantner how many favs have you made 150 so far?

[tardy fiber]

Level 150

[drifting dagger]

Ok not bad

[tardy fiber]

26 approaching 27

[summer goblet]

today is a great day for gem collecting

[lean mango]

So halfway

Nice

[summer goblet]

even though i did not attempt eb just yet

[drifting dagger]

So I can easily get back a good amount of what I used today, not bad

[summer goblet]

going to wait while to enjoy the 400k gem count

[tardy fiber]

Yeap almost done with all of my MF faves

[mental skiff]

cant wait till january lottery

[summer goblet]

honestly, after a bit of fav spending

i wanna push my goal to 500k to Chest's ultimate number

and post it on Reddit

[tardy fiber]

Only left sslyra to 150, then i not sure if i should 150 seasonal faves or special costume faves

[lean mango]

150 FIris?

[tardy fiber]

Yep seasonal much easier right? Only hleon and falliris for now

There's 5 sc

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

I might can finish 150 seasonal on January

[lean mango]

Need more poison faves

Nihilego when DeNa

[tardy fiber]

Nihilego

[mental skiff]

Alola VA

[lean mango]

Better not make it Rock

[mental skiff]

I marked it on mylist lusamine and Nihilego

[tardy fiber]

Yep, especially after shiny diancie...i truly not want rock

[mental skiff]

yes rock

I want rock

[summer goblet]

i plan to grab Fall Iris in March

[lean mango]

no

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

[lean mango]

Can't lose my beloved to Rock

[mental skiff]

Cant think another type beside rock

[lean mango]

If Geeta eventually comes they better not make her a Rock unit

My heart would stop

[tardy fiber]

Terrakion and stakataka probably be rock, so nihilego better be poison

[mental skiff]

I dont mind both type

[lean mango]

My Poison collection needs to grow

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

Psychic espatra

[lean mango]

I like Espathra so I'll let it off the hook for now

[upbeat lotus]

Mortal Spin is Glimmora's sign move right?

[mental skiff]

lady gaga

[lean mango]

Just a pain when a dual Poison pokemon is given the non poison type for a unit

[upbeat lotus]

so it's very likely that Geeta is Poison type

[mental skiff]

I feel weird with the ostrict

[lean mango]

I never saw Lady Gaga I always see Cleopatra

[mental skiff]

[tardy fiber]

If they implement Glimmora Toxic Debris, she sounds good for stall team

[mental skiff]

Ah i see

[mental skiff]

team poison passive

[upbeat lotus]

despite having Shadow Bone as the sign move Kiawe is Fire type so Geeta might be Rock type

[mental skiff]

Ignore antitoxin

[tardy fiber]

Ssbrendan luster purge psychic but he become dragon

[lean mango]

This is what scares me

Please let mi amor be a Poison unit

[mental skiff]

everything turn to rock eventually

[lean mango]

Making the base unit be Poison I'll be fine

[tardy fiber]

Talking about rock, we need more fossil non MC pairs

[lean mango]

Cradily when

[mental skiff]

i would like Omanyte

[lean mango]

Give Cradily to Steven in lodge

I need my silly guy

[mental skiff]

Cradily rock tho can you handle that

[tardy fiber]

Mega aggron steven pair when?

[lean mango]

I don't have a problem with Rock, just when the type that is not Poison of a dual type Pokemon is chosen

SS Gio moment

[mental skiff]

I see

Could be nice if is poison tho

[lean mango]

I guess it was a win either way, the dual types were of the 2 lowest type units

[mental skiff]

true

[drifting dagger]

For who got the 20 days bundles

Do you get just the 1k on first day? Or you also get the other 100?

[upbeat lotus]

you get both 1k and 100 gems on the first day

[drifting dagger]

Ok, I see

So if I get it today

It ends on january 18?

[upbeat lotus]

i think so

[drifting dagger]

I see

[tardy fiber]

Yep

[drifting dagger]

Hopefully we get ny deals, because I wanna get mat

[tardy fiber]

[drifting dagger]

[tardy fiber]

We already know about ny deals and it is kinda bad

[split thicket]

Guys...
PLEASE TALK ME OUT OF SPENDING MY PAID GEMS ON CALEM!!!

[drifting dagger]

Ah

[tardy fiber]

Thank you bundle have much better value

[drifting dagger]

Ye

[tardy fiber]

How deep are you in his banner?

I will dip into some of my paid gems if i already close to pity and the banner almost gone

[drifting dagger]

So if I get the 3k one, I should get blaziken next month

[tardy fiber]

Plus it's a Master fair

[drifting dagger]

Two times

[tardy fiber]

Might need to wait a year plus before CCalem rerun again but still, thats if you are close to pity

[pearl storm]

Anyone know how many gems are left till CSerena is gone?

[split thicket]

200 scout points.

201 actually.

If I use the 14K free ones before he's gone plus a couple paid ones, I might be able to pity.

But I need to do the Selects as well.

[sturdy hatch]

Well see how it looks in a week

[pearl storm]

I’m at 297/400 on Serena and have 2190 gems currently idk if I’m gonna make it

[noble tusk]

Did you get all the gems available today?

[pearl storm]

The extreme battles?

Not sure what became available today

[noble tusk]

I mean… there’s extreme battles and the 3rd part of heart united event

[pearl storm]

Oh I haven’t done heart united yet

I’m catching up on some missions about to expire

[noble tusk]

Try to do it, you should be able to do another x11 multi on Cerena after it

Then after that you should be fine till January 9th

Good luck

[pearl storm]

Wait so I can pity Serena?

[noble tusk]

Assuming you get ALL the free gems available by doing missions and stuffs, yes

[pearl storm]

Oh awesome. Just realized I can’t math.

There are thousands of free gems left

[noble tusk]

12k yea not even counting the ~3k gems we get today

[violet nebula]

Next reset?

[gloomy holly]

So I finally broke my old record of saving gems and have 25k gems now

I have 10k paid gems granted, but I broke my record for earning non-paid gems

[violet nebula]

Good stuff
