Resource Saving Support (Gem Zen)

[uneven pewter]

was on the first day

because the game like a slot machine

only has so many jackpots for a given time

[weary spire]

I don’t know why resetting constantly wouldn’t punish you all the same inherently. It just seems incredibly moronic to run a game like this so easily exploited

[tardy fiber]

It shows a higher degree of effort and seriousness than a washroom

[weary spire]

When you have full power to remove that possible exploitation

[fallen path]

Lol, late night overthinking

[weary spire]

So yeah, however you pull is pretty much superstition as far as I can see

[uneven pewter]

largely because there are laws in place that you have to payout so many jackpots

and the probability is in the formula

in the case of gacha

[weary spire]

But why does that prevent you from resetting constantly?

I don’t really follow :/

[tardy fiber]

Too much thinking, return to being a regi....un un un bzzt bzzt un un un

[uneven pewter]

because the seeds are usually qued and seeded for a period of time

[weary spire]

I don’t think a gacha needs to effectively be more exploitable to be valid

[uneven pewter]

before the server resets

[weary spire]

And how long is that period of time?

It can be seconds, right?

[uneven pewter]

that is usually internal knowledge only

if we had any hope of that knowledge

[weary spire]

Exactly

[uneven pewter]

it was when it was AGES AGO

[tardy fiber]

Man, i need to watch Regigigas scene in hoopa movie again, it has funny voice

[uneven pewter]

when there was the "naughty" leak

[weary spire]

That’s what comments seem to indicate, this could be reset every second for all you know

[uneven pewter]

which was backdoored into the official servers

and that has likely been changed

[weary spire]

Which means the post hinges on a total guess at random that it just happens to be more exploitable for, as far as I can see, no reason

Which seems moronic

[uneven pewter]

it comes down to statistics basically

like back when we all pulled singles

[weary spire]

But none of it matters if it resets every second

For instance

[uneven pewter]

i still believe singles are statistically better odds than full rolls

[fallen path]

Aren’t there better things to do than to think about something you literally can’t control anyways lol

[uneven pewter]

but the issue is the free pull

you can never out pay the free rolls you miss with single pulls

[weary spire]

Nothing wrong with pulling how you want, I just don’t like the idea of convincing other people there’s an exploitable formula on essentially no basis

[uneven pewter]

like sleep? yep

[tardy fiber]

Cannot wait to have 3/5 registeel...tm hit and heal, impervious, +6 def spdef, two types of potions

[uneven pewter]

the basis is using known data and information from slots machines as a base form of probability

[weary spire]

Not because the code doesn’t function a particular way, but because that particular way it functions is something you can’t even manipulate in the first place

But yeah that’s about it

[uneven pewter]

that's all it is

but i will say i have historically

[tardy fiber]

Preset cs team, 2 hours 13 mins left

[weary spire]

Again, the issue is what you said earlier: nothing points towards it resetting once daily, as opposed to every minute, second, etc.

[uneven pewter]

had my worst luck on the first days banner drops

correct

which we do not have any known variables

i have always theorized on the hourly reset

[weary spire]

So in conclusion, nothing is exploitable as far as anyone knows and unfortunately this means we’re at square 1

[uneven pewter]

since i have experimented for my own amusement which hour is best to pull

[weary spire]

But with extra coding knowledge for some

Which is cool ig

[uneven pewter]

right at reset is by far the worst in my stats XD

[tardy fiber]

Embrace pity, reject luck

[rare swan]

Luck ain't a strategy

[uneven pewter]

oddly enough my best rates are between 3-6pm

[rare swan]

Just a perk

[uneven pewter]

false positives but it's fune to see

fun*

[weary spire]

The next thing to experiment with is which second in the 24h of the day leads to the best rates

👀

[uneven pewter]

i don't have the gems, time nor money to do that

[tardy fiber]

My brain is too weak to learn about coding and time influences my multi results ...so embrace pity

[weary spire]

True

[weary spire]

[tardy fiber]

Oh Tai, record some 3/5 Dana gameplay later

[hard wave]

How many hrs after reset?

[fallen path]

Hello world

[hard wave]

I doubt its true, just curious

[uneven pewter]

sec let me turn it to universal time

[tardy fiber]

My habit is that i always do 1 multi then close app then restart, so whatever my unluckiness will pass on to another person that pull

[hard wave]

[uneven pewter]

see that's always been my view

because if there is a seed reset

it has a delay in some capacity

i NEVER do back to back pulls

[hard wave]

Oh central time, same time zone

[tardy fiber]

Daym i shared my secrets

[uneven pewter]

i'll share mine

"Save gems"

[tardy fiber]

I already saved till 141k

[uneven pewter]

(is the worst about what he preaches)

[tardy fiber]

Enough

[uneven pewter]

yea I know you're doing better than me

i'll have 75k free gems by the end of the month

but i am skipping almost everything besides blue and the rockets

i am leaving fate to red and leaf

[tardy fiber]

Might have more later because iirc there's cheap paid gems deal

Same value as welcome ash

[uneven pewter]

ohohohohoh

[tardy fiber]

I might grab the 1k

10k still too expensive

[uneven pewter]

i mean

[weary spire]

If you want to experiment down to the second
||Record the exact second you pull something 1st multi, then wait for the exact second of next reset to pull again

… Except, while I don’t know anything about coding, can that not just be reshuffled each reset following some formula we’re not privy to, maybe? In which case unless the entire system is laid bare, I think we wouldn’t get anywhere (this bit is actually blind speculation)||

[uneven pewter]

what was the 10k last year?

$ cost that is

[tardy fiber]

I forgot, but i doubt its cheaper than buying orb bundle EX 3 times

[hard wave]

Simply get hired at DeNA and program ur account to get 5 copies first multi

[tardy fiber]

I will even add free role cake

[weary spire]

I suppose I’ll continue to save gems until I’m hired by DeNA, to be safe until then

[tardy fiber]

DeNa naming it roll cakes simply because it give additional role

Very punny

[hard wave]

I would give myself 99,999 skill spheres, 200k more sync orbs maybe, and a like 500 PUs

[hard wave]

I thought they were role cakes

[rare swan]

[hard wave]

Im glad they give us free tickets for BP, I have about 5.5k BP rn so it’ll take a while before I get a masterfair ticket

Ill use the free one for dana and that one for registeel, then save for next anni

[tardy fiber]

You can even take mine, it increases so fast more than i could use

I already grid every pair i have

[hard wave]

I wish we got more 4* support and tech candies tho Ill have 7 4 star tickets

[hard wave]

I still have like 26 pairs to grid iirc, have 100k but saving it for new pairs this month

[tardy fiber]

Oh right so i need to grid 8 new pairs today

[hard wave]

Since I upgrade all pairs with EX and then max them, but the ungridded ones r 4 stars

[tardy fiber]

Lodge leaf wont be today as she need some time to unlock

[hard wave]

Dana
4 BPs
N
Lodge N & Leaf

So thats 8 pairs, oh and shauna if I can get her from kalos tickets

[tardy fiber]

Dana, Registeel, 4 4* BP, ||NcRed and Victor from 5k fair select||

[hard wave]

|| ur getting victor? For lodge jic? ||

[tardy fiber]

||yep for future lodge, he being a MC have higher chance to be on lodge than emma and ingo||

Also because no lodge steven for me next month

Well 4/5 N at least

[hard wave]

I thought it’d be all 6 tbh

[tardy fiber]

Same

[hard wave]

Oh well, I was most likely going for N tbh

Missing steven and gloria as well

Oh and adaman, prob wont get him

[tardy fiber]

At least the other select scout is a skip, i dont think i will ever need anniraihan...only base pairs are needed to unlock lodge

Annimay and anniskyla already 3/5

[slate ether]

I don’t know why but you reminded me that I really hope we get a grusha sync pair one day

[tardy fiber]

At least i know a way now, i will 2/5 all of my non MF faves in order...fair select pool are at random so due to this, it will make it easier for me to 3/5 them via select

[hard wave]

Isnt it kind of low that the ones u want will be in them tho? And they seem to happen 2-3 times a year

[tardy fiber]

Yep, but if it happens like this time that there's fair select but all of my faves in it already 3/5

So if NY select that have 2 tapus appear in 2 different select scouts, i can grab both

As all of em are 2/5

If i 3/5 one before moving to another pair, and suddenly a select scout appear that only have that 3/5 pair, i already cannot grab that select scout

[hard wave]

save paid gems ig

[tardy fiber]

Like seasonal select, for now its useless to me because i already 3/5 smliza and smtate fast

If i make em both 2/5, i can grab next seasonal select

[hard wave]

Id like to go for || anni skyla and ss brendan || but losing my f2p status

Also gems r expensive

[tardy fiber]

Kinda why i only buy the cheapest the 20 day orb deal

Even that, will give me 9k paid gems every 2 months

So 54k paid in a year

[hard wave]

Fair, but it takes a while

[tardy fiber]

And just like you said that select only happens couple of times a year

So it will be enough

[hard wave]

True

[tardy fiber]

Well no rush, some pairs are usable even at 1/5

For now i will prioritize MF first as MF select are not available

[hard wave]

Problem is it’d end up a waste if none of them have reruns I want

Ill just hope for some good multi banners w the reruns I want

[tardy fiber]

Kinda why i plan to make all of my faves 2/5 first, so that to avoid select with none of i need in it appears

If all are 2/5 so high chance i will need the select

So i plan to make my 1/5 sshilda, sslana, eusine all to 2/5 instead of 3/5 sshilda and then work for the next one

[hard wave]

Makes sense, if I was going to do a select id do for 1/5

[hard wave]

How many do u have to candy?

[tardy fiber]

Currently,
Striker: 1/5 sshilda, 1/5 sslana, 1/5 eusine
Tech: none
Support: 2/5 ssmina, 1/5 ssacerola

[hard wave]

Ooo not bad

[tardy fiber]

And this month will add more

[hard wave]

Oh right

[tardy fiber]

4 more

Thats why i just gonna 2/5 if they are not MF

[hard wave]

What about registeel and regice

[tardy fiber]

I can 3/5 1 via rainbow ticket and 2/5 the other one

[mental skiff]

1h30min

[tardy fiber]

So i only need 1 support candy

[hard wave]

Oh nice

[tardy fiber]

Because like this month its +2990 bp

So like monthly its +3k on average

So a year means 36k bp

[hard wave]

I think I can get registeel in october/november

[tardy fiber]

So thats 3 rainbow tix

[mental skiff]

I confirm

[tardy fiber]

And probably i can save 1 for next anniv

[mental skiff]

I had 3 pair

[hard wave]

2990 starts this reset right?

[tardy fiber]

Yep

[mental skiff]

it count from 26th?

[hard wave]

8450 is what I should end at

[hard wave]

26th was part of august datamine

This one starts 28th+

[mental skiff]

I dunno

[lapis pine]

Wait why? Was this in the dev letter?

[tardy fiber]

Yep free rosa copy from poma day shop

[lapis pine]

That’s so hype

[mental skiff]

free 2 rosa dupe

[lapis pine]

Omg that’s amazing

Is it most likely just gonna be story pairs?

[mental skiff]

Bingo refresh and master day exchange

[tough oriole]

Rosa dupe:
New clothes colour:

[hard wave]

Will we be able to get the free pokefair this reset or do we have to wait

[mental skiff]

still dunno if we have to choose between two

[hard wave]

One step closer to serperior frame

Also blue outfit is my fav one so glad abt that

[hard wave]

I think they’d say if we had to

Hopefully not tho

[tough oriole]

That’s highly unlikely, since we get infinite pika stickers from the pomaday thingy

And even then, you could just skip out on the codexes and stuff if needed

[mental skiff]

only 40

If they make each 21 pika sticker

[maiden kayak]

save and skip anni

[lapis pine]

Bro does not know you can redo the battle

[maiden kayak]

halloween units have better design for sure

[hard wave]

1 stage is 40 pika stickers

[tardy fiber]

All of that free resources lost every month

[round light]

Are we getting any free gems today reset?

[mental skiff]

I still have some gear that need to exchange tho so pika sticker is scarcity resource now

[mental skiff]

We always get free gems

[tardy fiber]

No problem you can farm it as much as you want for 24 hours

[mental skiff]

huh really?

[hard wave]

Its not poma day rn so

And yes u can play it as much as u want on the poma day reset

[tardy fiber]

I usually clear poma day shop in like 7 co-op runs

[mental skiff]

I always farm only once eversince i started the game

[tardy fiber]

Or is it 9

[mental skiff]

Imagine how many resource i lost

[hard wave]

I usually go for everything but the gear since mine r all maxed out

[hard wave]

Pretty sure its just lvl cap items

So if u dont need that then ur fine

Oh theme and sync orbs too

[mental skiff]

i needed them

[tardy fiber]

I even grabbed the gear because i like to see my shop empty

[hard wave]

[hard wave]

I did it this time to slowly finish 20k gear upgrade

[mental skiff]

Imgine spending 200 stamina grinding level cap area for 50 codex

[tardy fiber]

I only farm during stamina rally and bonanza but there's none this month

It will have bonus drop

[hard wave]

I grind events for what I want then I do theme skill area

I have like 26 left for 5 stars, and so many new pairs this month

I hope october is a skip month

[mental skiff]

Rally always happen on VA or weird gatcha reward event tho so i have to farm for them

[mental skiff]

It is expensive too

[hard wave]

They ran the rally this month for so long but at the same 4 pair up events and johto VA

[hard wave]

What else will I use my stamina on?

[tardy fiber]

Yep kinda why i 140 my victrier fast, i took advantage of bonus drop before farming others

[hard wave]

Sync and theme skill orbs + 5 star powerups r prob the resources I need most rn

[mental skiff]

[hard wave]

Im fine on lvl cap items (need sprint and field drinks tho, but dont want any rn to use them on nor plan to get any this month), im fine with cookies and scrolls, and candies well cant rlly grind them ig

[hard wave]

Yeah I got him to 3/5, finished johto VA stuff, and 140d him

Then went back to 5/5 him and do the other pair up events for

[hard wave]

[mental skiff]

I already maxed out all pair only 5 * pu and 4 * pu need

[hard wave]

Oh yeah need 4 star PUs too, I have 180 now but all will prob be used up this month

[mental skiff]

still need to increase protential for 16 4*

[tardy fiber]

Oh right 5 new 4* this month ...not 6 because i wont pull Tina

[mental skiff]

After that i will move to eggmon

[hard wave]

I have like 26 left + 4 BPs being added + 2 lodge pairs

[mental skiff]

[hard wave]

So I grind theme skill orbs, cant grind powerups and sync orbs, and my candy list for 4 stars

I have a few 5 star candies but im still deciding who to use it on or save it for reruns I want

[hard wave]

No team rocket, bugscy, lodge gloria steven adaman

[mental skiff]

Better wait

[hard wave]

Only have 3 4 star supp candies and tons of 3 star tech/support

[hard wave]

Yeah no rush, I have a few candidates tho

[mental skiff]

I used to think about 3/5 rosa but now we have free

[tough oriole]

Three/Five Rosa? More like Free/Five Rosa

[mental skiff]

[hard wave]

Serperior pallosand and meowstic frames will be done soon (16 months)

[tough oriole]

Lodge Cheren is ||right before EOS, trust||

[hard wave]

[tough oriole]

Or after eos, who knows

[tough oriole]

You can’t prove me wrong if that’s the case

[mental skiff]

Cheren come next month and you will be forever in shame

[ashen thunder]

Lodge cheren

More realistic than lodge nate

[versed flame]

he is a story pair 🤔 it could happen

(^ biased)

[severe bridge]

Rallies are server side ?

[round mason]

waiting for reset for val

[mental skiff]

30 min

[vernal glade]

Big gems incoming it’s close

[severe bridge]

We might possibly get more than 4400 too?

[mental skiff]

Yes

[winged fossil]

20min to spare and i just speedran like half the 8/28 expiring events lol

just rushed the challenge battles in like the past half hour

[severe bridge]

I literally did the EBEs at 3 AM

[vernal glade]

Including a free lodge scout. I definitely know who I’m choosing.

[winged fossil]

shit i forgot about cs

ZOOM

gonna do full special dmg

so i dont have to change params at all

[mental skiff]

Do strength or hp params

[compact pasture]

Rosa 5/5 grid

[mental skiff]

Cant wait to use vampire rosa and drain hp of my enemy to dead

[round mason]

we get a free rosa copy right?

[tough oriole]

Yes

[round mason]

ah alright

one more year for 3/5

[mental skiff]

[winged fossil]

huh what, we get a free rosa dupe?

[rare swan]

Hopefully the others will come as well

[round mason]

for poma day

[rare swan]

I want more Calem dupes so I can have 5/5

[lost bobcat]

Cheren is the only one that never got a free copy

They want us to candy

[mental skiff]

calem is already good at base

[winged fossil]

DEAR ARCEUS WHAT HAPPENED TO MY GEM COUNT
i swear i was at 36.6k literally yesterday and now after rushing events im at 46.8k LOL

[vernal glade]

About time my Rosa turns to a 2/5

[ashen thunder]

4/5 rosa time

Now I get more shinier border

[turbid sapphire]

hey trying to save until next datamine before i do anything rash

these long waits until datamine whenever i pick up the game and have someone i want is always painful, does anyone have tips?

[mental skiff]

5/5 by the end of next month true rosa fan

[ashen thunder]

Ehh idk

I might 5/5 her

But I want to candy ssblue and bulu

[mental skiff]

i mean free

[ashen thunder]

They both need 1 candy each and then they'll be good

Wait

We get more than 1 rosa copy?

[winged fossil]

||time to say bye to half these gems prob.||

[mental skiff]

They also refresh bingo rosa tho

I heard that

[rare swan]

Good luck everyone

And keep your pulls out of here!

[latent salmon]

so uh. anni

brb gotta check if we got the 3k

[winged fossil]

sooo uh, apparently the cake on pull is only with paid gems

[latent salmon]

[winged fossil]

they made a paid mf banner like wtf dena lmao

[mental skiff]

No free 3000

[latent salmon]

at least silver greeted me...

ignoring the fact i have all three of his pairs favorited and he's the only one i have favorited

[mental skiff]

Time to rally for more gems

[latent salmon]

new oak bingo

[winged fossil]

huh ok, i left that with pity still. my gems did NOT infact get thanos'd tonight, so guess im leaving the update with a pity still.

[latent salmon]

no 3k for anni but at least we can hoard. like. idk 3* tech candies

[mental skiff]

[winged fossil]

wait wheres the select ticket

[mental skiff]

Complete mission

[latent salmon]

wait

could you just kill two birds with one stone if you did sync orb mission

[winged fossil]

dangit have to wait another like 6 days

[mental skiff]

But how about this

[latent salmon]

eggmon

ezez

[mental skiff]

Gonna be a pain to switch them around

[latent salmon]

when eggmon run out, you can hatch eggs for a reason.

we have like 9 other options

[mental skiff]

I exchange all egg for ticket

[latent salmon]

i should probably get around to exchanging my stockpile of eggs but looking at this...

who has the last laugh now

[mental skiff]

[latent salmon]

i have hoarder mentality with eggmons

[mental skiff]

I thought we can play bingo

[winged fossil]

well, 3/5 gordie is here, but 0/5 of lapras lady still

...how many copies of shauna is "enough".

[mossy hawk]

Also 0/5 Melony here

[vernal glade]

0/5 Gordie and Courtney

[winged fossil]

now the question becomes on if anyone else is enough fav to be worth anything or if im fully in save mode... wait no thats not even a question, everything stays till after next datamine, easy saving mode

[round mason]

im just enjoying the free pairs

[sweet tide]

did they just give us 1k skip tickets as anni present or am i tripping

[round mason]

they did.

[sweet tide]

😂

[round mason]

tf did they think i was gonna do with 1k skips

cale accumulation is gonna take long

cake**

[sweet tide]

just focus on one role

it will shorten the time by 50%

[round mason]

alrighty then

[uncut comet]

Don't you feel a beloved child (player)?

At least I discovered that not all the dailies are mandatory to claim the useful rewards

[tardy fiber]

Sad not enough grass codexes to 140 bpbarry

[round mason]

new bp units are great
only using bpval and barry

dana is what i needed 🥹

[compact pasture]

Oh no, I’ll be overseas during the event

[vernal glade]

Well, skip month next month.

Because who knows when my favs will reappear.

[maiden kayak]

wait a min

anni has no more 3k gems present?

[ashen thunder]

No

Enjoy 1000 skip tickets instead

[vestal leaf]

That's why the count was lower initially

They gave 4k logins instead of 3k

And instead no gems

As present

I think? Or lower

[maiden kayak]

dang ok

[tardy fiber]

Changed to this, becomes 4k gems but need to login longer

[maiden kayak]

so total still 28k ?

[tardy fiber]

30.7k if we clear twitter rally

Oh wait the rally gems are given on 29 so it will carry to next datamine

[past gate]

Do we have any missions for 3k gems?

[lost bobcat]

Yeah, BP pairs are so well designed for f2p

[grim plover]

[vale ivy]

do we need to do extra battle for cake coin? or, is it under the regional daily battle?

[uneven pewter]

Wow

Dena i am impressed

That is next level stupidity

[broken mulch]

Err what is

[uneven pewter]

Just saw the new masters fair banner

I really hope the whales don’t indulge this crap

This is a genuine insult

To paid gems

[maiden kayak]

||but they get a chiffon cake||

|| much more expensive than macorons||

[uneven pewter]

[broken mulch]

Let them pay for their cake

[tardy fiber]

At least cake is obtainable in 1 and a half month, therefore I didn't get tempted

[uneven pewter]

I see you there Marie

[crisp oracle]

I just realized, if you get shafted by the cake banner you spend more gems on one new 5* unit then if you did all of the seasonal and pokefair selects

[tardy fiber]

Yep that's why its kinda stupid

Not like it has higher rates

[ashen thunder]

The banner makes sense

Coz they didn't give enuff gems

So people just bought gems

[tardy fiber]

If i got extra money, i would rather buy the coin bundle instead

7k paid + 1 omni candy every 20 days

[ashen thunder]

Between the shit SSred and ssblue expansions and the paid MF banner

Gotta love Dena for that

Seems like only paid MF banner we are getting is whatever the fuck they are giving us rn

[maiden kayak]

btw

is anni 1k worth it

is it same rate as daily bundle?

[tardy fiber]

I buy 1k but not 10k

As 3 daily orb bundles are cheaper than 10k offer price

[maiden kayak]

cos 1k for me in 100 gems/10 cents my currency

[tardy fiber]

1k paid for me costs the same as 100 paid gems + 200 stamina offer

So i grab because its cheap enough

[ashen thunder]

So did we get any info abt the admins selector?

[maiden kayak]

nope

[ashen thunder]

I am not in twitter so can't rly check stuff on that 👀

Aite

[wind coyote]

hey

i was here a while back

used to be here

then quit the game to focus on exams

now im back

skipped the johtrio i wanted cause i fell in love with champ red

now im on 600 gems

[sturdy flower]

Today I got a reminder how important having pities is

[wind coyote]

||no no i had a pity and got champ red||

now im on 600 gems

[sturdy flower]

(i have 4 still)

[wind coyote]

red shafted me

but im happy i got him

now i dont care abt johtrio

[sturdy flower]

||me and you brother, took an L but i have him, still didn't 3/5 tho||

[wind coyote]

im keeping him on 1/5

he's a monster

i love him

i have all reds now

[maiden kayak]

….

u are not supposed to brag it here

[wind coyote]

right sry

oh hey i remember u

u were the guy on 500k gems

u taught me abt pities

[maiden kayak]

yes

lol

did I? i dont remember

[wind coyote]

u always kept scolding me when i yolod 🤣

also thanks to u i reduced my rerun list by a lot

Now im getting back to saving

[maiden kayak]

save

yes

very good

[wind coyote]

I dont want any other units this month

Blue and leaf dont appeal to me at all

[sturdy flower]

save because the free gem forecast is not promising

[tawny summit]

So no coin today from daily battle?

[mossy hawk]

5 daily tickets = 1 cake coin from your choice

[dreamy onyx]

starting september 3rd

[wind coyote]

well i am disappointed in one thing

My rerun list is huge I know
But i'm gonna get anni skyla through the 3k paid, i cant get ss diantha cause i just got emma and removed her from the list, and from seasonals im only being able to get palmarnie

so thats 2 more units scratched off the list

probably gonna remove johtrio as i dont much care abt them anymore

and therefore dont wanna pull them

removed zerena cause cyrus suffices all my dragon striker needs

[mossy hawk]

Kinda ironic how Johto MFs were your ultimate favorites before

[wind coyote]

no im not playing for favs anymore cause i cant keep em in check

im just pulling the units that are ultimate in my opinion

like from now on ill probably on pull master fairs

and some broken pokefairs

[mossy hawk]

At the rate that the powercreep is currently going, I am not sure how achievable that is

[wind coyote]

ill just go mfs then regardless

only master fairs

[tardy jolt]

So you’re pulling meta, which is a way worse criterium to follow, since the powercreep never stops and there are always going to be MFs every three months and broken PFs almost every month

[mossy hawk]

It doesn't have to be that bad, as long as you stay realistic in your wants

[unkempt vortex]

Gacha powercreep funny

Have fun pulling every month

[wind coyote]

ok fine ill only pull units i like

simple as dat

[mossy hawk]

In the end, you decide what you like and what not

[wind coyote]

yep

[mossy hawk]

And whatever makes you keep playing

[unkempt vortex]

Or not

No one is forcing you to play

[oak crest]

its sustainable if you are very picky tho

[tardy jolt]

Sure, but when a list has 10+ reruns, it’s not realistic at all
Just being honest, this list is never getting completed and will become bloated beyond repair.
Tbh, everyone can do whatever they want with their resources and time, but if someone posts in a thread that’s specifically for advice on spending and after 50 minutes of saying that 2 units are not interesting to them adds them to the highest tier of their list, there’s very little input that can be given, except for a critique

[oak crest]

cos i did go for months without pulling sometimes

[wind coyote]

whoa ok

im sorry

didnt mean to offend with my list

but considering i took 5 units off it in just three months i think the goal is achievable

ill keep it to myself from next time

[oak crest]

uhh.. if you are lucky that's possible ig, cos worst case scenario that's 5 pities

[tardy jolt]

No offense taken, but there’s a difference between asking for advice and validation.
Only thing I’m adding is that on that list there are 5 units running this month, good luck

[oak crest]

3 months - that adds up to about 84-90k in average, so yeah, you definitely need a decent luck to cross out 5 faves with that amount

while there are moments i get omegaop pulls, there are also moments I needed a pity

[wind coyote]

im sorry
u're right i was asking for validation not advice

i need to get this straight

[unkempt vortex]

With how things are going now it’s gonna be like 75k for 3 months

[wind coyote]

and play on terms that are acceptable to the game mechanic, not just based on luck

[oak crest]

yeah

[wind coyote]

u're right

considering i just pitied champ red

[oak crest]

things dont really look good with that trend

probably have to brace for terrible gem counts for the months after anni

[maiden kayak]

rerun list should be less than 3 especially f2p

[maiden kayak]

remove the rest except paid select and yes

maybe and dead month shows little to no commitment to your list

those units are added for the sake of filling the list

[wind coyote]

great removing dead month

[maiden kayak]

maybe as well

[wind coyote]

done

cross out anni skyla cause im getting her within the next 24 hrs

and palmarnie i will get too in this month

[maiden kayak]

just remove the rest

remove clutter

[wind coyote]

the two kanto birds

[maiden kayak]

imo

[wind coyote]

ill wait 2 yrs for their rerun

not pulling them rn

[maiden kayak]

calem

might lose his value as weather setter when field units are coming

i dunno about cleaf but her kit suffers from " my moves all need to be in turn 1" syndrome

and her dmg is largely dependant on her rebuff and sun

which explains why she has shit offense stats and bp

[wind coyote]

i havent read lead and blue's kits yet so i might as well go into them
i just love the kanto and galarian birds

[hard wave]

Wdym? TM and Leer both want to be used turn 1?

[maiden kayak]

yes

[mossy hawk]

Not that it is appropiate for this channel, but CLeaf does have a very straightforward rotation in fire teams

[maiden kayak]

even flare blitz

because u wont full utilise her sun

[hard wave]

But u cant even unlock that until u use leer?

[maiden kayak]

once u sync with her and thats her 2nd sun

Thats duh point

[hard wave]

Oh I see

[maiden kayak]

flare blitz has that sun mechanic

but its wasted if u sync with her

especially when u gonna have her support EX role

overall i just find quite abit of contradictions on her kit

[hard wave]

[mossy hawk]

I am sure it will look smooth in practice

[maiden kayak]

true but personally not a fan of units that wanna depend on ss acerola which most ppl recommend , then if thats the case whats the selling point of the unit without that support

[hard wave]

Also, u could just keep ur list but it’ll take a while to complete it and u may have to compromise if there’s new units u want

But also if ur willing to remove whole rows immediately, idt u want them enough

[broken mulch]

Wait what’s the problem again

That NC Leaf needs support?

[hard wave]

Champ Leaf wants to use everything turn 1

[maiden kayak]

the rerun list should ideally be like less than 3

thats it

[maiden kayak]

no speed she needs that

[hard wave]

Ig for now it doesnt matter too much unless u plan to give her support EX role

[oak crest]

ngl i dislike unit A requiring unit B for x buffs, its a big turnoff

[wind coyote]

i removed the row for dead months
might as well remove it cause im never gonna get those units anyways

[mossy hawk]

NCLeaf does max everything she wants herself with ease, full self sufficiency

But still, Gem saving channel

[unkempt vortex]

When does that ever stop people from having full discussions on units

[ashen thunder]

Having discussion on units is fine

Diss on that unit

So that people don't roll

[hard wave]

All units r mid, dont use ur gems except for stamina

[mossy hawk]

I feel like a villain defending some pairs here sometimes

[unkempt vortex]

There have been ones about units who aren’t even running

[maiden kayak]

I disuading him to choose cleaf and then ppl just keeping booming with her benefits

what to do\

[unkempt vortex]

and then there are times where this is just lounge

[mossy hawk]

It's my fault, I am too objective

[maiden kayak]

true

[unkempt vortex]

This is the real lounge

[timber wren]

it is not

[ashen thunder]

Don't need more than 10 teams anyways

[maiden kayak]

well ppl dont spoiler it responsibly sometimes here

[ashen thunder]

People be out there rolling zone, rebuffer and 200 BP dps for each typing and still not doing more than 2.5k CS

[hard wave]

3k CS when

[ashen thunder]

4k CS when

3k is weak af

[oak crest]

probably after we get Galar CS

we might be seeing 3k after that

[ashen thunder]

4k offtype is "somewhat" challenging

[hard wave]

True

[ashen thunder]

3k is a joke

Since they added more params

[hard wave]

Tho they’d just add more params to choose from

[oak crest]

its also a "good time" for them to start dropping those cake coins by then

[hard wave]

2.5k would prob be hard without the standard damage reduction param

[oak crest]

i'll say give em 3-6 months

[mossy hawk]

Solution is simple, pull ||Regigigas|| and offtype every content
I have to stop with Palmer propaganda

[ashen thunder]

Well S+ and above stuff can do 4.5k consistently

And outside offregion ebe, CS is the hardest content

[oak crest]

||I'm going for him after NCs||

[ashen thunder]

The content scaling compared to units is just

[oak crest]

i love overkills

imagine doing 100k on pomas day pikachu stage

[ashen thunder]

I mean

[unkempt vortex]

That’s just gacha games sometimes

Content doesn’t equal unit power

[ashen thunder]

A modern tech unit does 100k on 3.5k MM

Doing 100k on Pikachu stage....dream bigger

999999 the yellow rats

[oak crest]

maybe 999,999

needs all them buffs

[ashen thunder]

Yea but a lot of gacha games do introduce better stages eventually

Here that shit almost never happens

[oak crest]

uhh some will design the stage that it's almost impossible to clear without the featured unit tho...

[unkempt vortex]

Shit gacha game then

[oak crest]

ik some games that does that

[unkempt vortex]

Ofc

Make players pull

[oak crest]

yeah

[ashen thunder]

Iirc those games allow friend units as borrow

[unkempt vortex]

Also like those games there are ways to get around those unit specific gimmick stages

[ashen thunder]

Unless you are talking abt raids

Then yea

[unkempt vortex]

Depends on the game

[ashen thunder]

Raids are hella competitive

Which I doubt we are ever getting

[timber wren]

there’s a delicate balancing for these live service games to create new stuff that’s harder for veteran players but also brings in new players and doesn’t make them feel left out

but it does make our job in here easier, since newer better units aren’t needed to clear the same old content

[ashen thunder]

Yea
At most the content needs a gen pool unit due to the mission limitations

But ig it's better to skip that 1 coin/300 gems instead of potentially dumping 36.6k gems

[vestal leaf]

Bps are also actual great freebies

[oak crest]

yea they are

[hard wave]

High score

Well 180k isnt so bad

[hard wave]

We’ll get a poma-ified tera raid mode for co op content

[ashen thunder]

Not really

200k is only 40k per stage

It's not even hard even if you are doing 2 ontype, 1 offtype

That's why the medal score bumped up higher than that

[hard wave]

I meant its kind of hard if ur going for the medal, but 180k is pretty easy

[ashen thunder]

Raid would be super fun
I hope if they do implement raid it doesn't allow same unit as other people in raid room

I don't want to see reds everywhere

[hard wave]

Rlly? Didnt know that

I havent played swsh nor sv, raids just seem fun

[ashen thunder]

Nah I am mostly referencing what other gachas do for raid

[unkempt vortex]

Ye

[ashen thunder]

I never played anything past XY

[hard wave]

Oh

[ashen thunder]

[unkempt vortex]

In most cases it’s giant boss in big arena take it down with other people

Usually has multiple phases

Some games have a list of bonus units that deal more damage or give more rewards after defeating it

[hard wave]

Maybe friends will now be useful

[ashen thunder]

I doubt it's ever getting implemented
Co op already lags like hell

[unkempt vortex]

Coop is the worst thing in this game

Imagine a raid with 3 or more people

[hard wave]

[ashen thunder]

Well leaderboard and raids are the only way to still force people into rolling "meta" stuff

So Dena just picked former as the route to go for

And leaderboard has no rewards so we can

[hard wave]

I hope 10k is easier this HS, I didnt get the medal during the water one

Preferably id like to not have to re do it

[ashen thunder]

Well 10k won't be hard

It'll likely be easier than before

Top 100 tho

[hard wave]

Does top 100 give anything? Idc abt being on a leaderboard if it gives nothing

[ashen thunder]

Nothing

[hard wave]

Ok good

[uncut comet]

Whales will do, they are already using paid gems for MF banners, the cake is just an extra reward.

[fallen path]

Whales are gonna support the whale banner lol. We will just get the cakes later as F2P and dolphin players

[dreamy onyx]

yeah whale pulling for 3/5 and 5/5 always use paid gem anyway

it's just 1 cake, people really thought it's gonna be 5

[ashen thunder]

Cakes are the new powerboost anyways

And seems like they are focusing on limited units first

So no reason to rush for those

[tardy fiber]

True, i just gonna give cakes on my MF faves

Well because if there's plenty of alternatives, usually i will use MF faves than others just because they have MF passives

[hard wave]

Personally, just like move candies, idk who to use them on so ill just hoard

[tardy fiber]

At least its cheaper than candies, as each pair only need to use 1 cake while candies usage range from 1 to 4 candies for move levels

[dreamy onyx]

same i haven't used any candies, i wish they release 3-4* cakes too but for now they probably only give them to new 5* and slowly add them for old 5*

[wind coyote]

oh hey sup i remember u too

[hard wave]

Oh the cakes have a rarity?

[dreamy onyx]

no but they should

[tardy fiber]

Hi

[hard wave]

I have some options to candy, however idk who

Im at 59 coins for strike, so almost 3
Like 56/57 for tech iirc?
45 maybe for support
32ish for general

I havent even exchanged them cuz I dont want to accidentally use them

[tardy fiber]

Even if 3* 4* pairs got cake treatment, it probably uses the same cake...as cake role need EX

So Oak and BP Master pairs wont get cake for now

[oak crest]

kinda wished they released the new daily stage earlier

apparently we dont get them until 6 resets later

[indigo kernel]

are roll cakes used based on the units role or the ex role

i cant tell

[hard wave]

Yeah hoenn starts this reset but they r waiting until sinnoh

[oak crest]

its decided by dena

[dreamy onyx]

the ex role

[tardy fiber]

Decided by DeNa

[hard wave]

They give them an EX role and then u have to use that cake

[dreamy onyx]

red ex role is tech so you have to use tech cake

[hard wave]

So for example they gave red a tech EX role so u need a tech cake

[indigo kernel]

OKAY thank you

[oak crest]

dena will decide what 2nd EX role that unit can get and we can use that type of cake on that unit

unfortunately we dont get to choose

[tardy jolt]

Inb4 Sprint SC Steven

[lost bobcat]

Fair, we'll create monsters

[hard wave]

We get to choose who to use it on, not what cake to use

[oak crest]

yeah

if you dont like the EX assigned by dena, then skip it

[tardy fiber]

Like zerena, palmer, ncred are all strike pairs but zerena got support while other 2 got tech cake role

[indigo kernel]

oh could you imagine like

support sprint role

[tardy jolt]

Tbh cakes take so long that I’ll be saving all of those that we get until 5th Anni

[compact pasture]

Support Support role

[oak crest]

yeah think we need 3 months to form 1 cake

[tardy fiber]

Only 2 months if you focus on 1 cake

As each month give 6 coins for each 5 roles and you can buy 6 of your desired role coin from daily ticket shop

So 12

[oak crest]

so average 3 months if you didnt focus

hmm

[tardy fiber]

Yep 100 days to form 1 cake of each roles

[tardy jolt]

Yeah, which is quite long, unless they release a busted Diantha/Cynthia/Nemona, I’ll be saving them. If they are going to be used for meta reasons, I’d rather wait until I have at least 1 per type to spare. So I should have the materials for 5 cakes saved up for anni

[tardy fiber]

But in that time gap maybe you can build 1/2 cakes from daily ticket shop

[hard wave]

Paulo?

[oak crest]

[indigo kernel]

...

[hard wave]

He’s a sprint with support EX role

[oak crest]

im skipping him so idrc

[indigo kernel]

well!

[oak crest]

[indigo kernel]

good for him

[wind coyote]

isnt it good
zerena always needs to take the first sync in battle so her ex role ensures she also plays the role of support ex by double buffing

[oak crest]

the only reason he came back crying is cos ||he got cucked big time by giovanni||

[tardy fiber]

Shorter than move coins though, need 4 months+ to form 2 candies to make 1/5 pair to 3/5

[wind coyote]

i must say i was proudly able to predict that paulo would have dusk form... along with 500 other ppl

[dreamy onyx]

yeah you can get cake faster than candy

[oak crest]

[tardy fiber]

Yep just want to give example that same role pairs doesn't mean will have same cake roles

[oak crest]

uk, they should have 6 types of cake...

[wind coyote]

right

[oak crest]

the 6th being GENERAL cake

can be used for all 5 types

[compact pasture]

Lisia should get a field role

[tardy jolt]

Yeah, good thing that of the new roles only Nemona is a fave that may need them, so I should be able to 3/5 her soon enough with those candies (I may do 1 universal and 1 sprint)

[tardy fiber]

Sprint and field coins are still cloudy, only 1 coin each on September

40 months to 3/5 field/sprint pairs from 1/5

[oak crest]

hmm

[tardy jolt]

Tbh, I don’t like the new roles at all. Fields can be interesting, if they are going to make them more support like, but sprint have a mechanic that gameplay wise doesn’t interest me at all. Unless it’s going to be tied to a fave, I’m fine with not expanding my rooster that way

[wind coyote]

if i had a nickel everytime red was used as an anni unit, i'd have 3 nickels, which is weird cause there have only been 4 annis

and 3 of them have had red

[tardy jolt]

I’ve recently remade all my teams and optimized them and I’ve realized that I’ve only like 3/4 gaps in them before having 34 teams for special and physical variants of each type and the units that I’m looking for don’t exist yet, so I’m really quite chill with what next year is going to throw at me. I am going to be looking forward for those units coming into the game and for the rest, I’ll be saving up more than before, since the F2P gems are declining fast. Selects will be ore than enough to experiment with new stuff in between saving and MFs drops

[wind coyote]

Actually i feel quite the same way
Sprint units are just useless to be extremely honest
Field units are also ok but they cant set the field effect at will which makes them much more complicated to use compared to those units which can set field at a click of a button

[dreamy onyx]

they release those 2 new roles to justify adding the ex role tbh, and avoid making every pair a tech

[tardy fiber]

The only way i can see myself using sprint EX sync maybe for gauntlet as it can make sprint followed by support sync faster so fast 3 sync buffs

[deft glen]

|| Red always takes me to pity ||

[tardy fiber]

Im just happy to finally have a Red that can fit my faves category

[wind coyote]

Ok great

Got Palmarnie, Ny Lisia and Anni Skyla

3 units off the list thanks to paid selects

i love august 28th

the list is much much shorter now

[wind coyote]

ill be able to manage this over the year

because ive run out my quota of paid gems for the year 💀

[tough oriole]

I suppose there won’t be many selects left in the year to use paid gems on

[wind coyote]

oh right

perhaps next year

august is the month i can really delete half the list thanks to selects

[dreamy onyx]

I hate that they throw every select near anni

[wind coyote]

yea

should spread out over the year

[dreamy onyx]

save some for new year or half anni

[wind coyote]

regardless my list is just 8 units now, i wont pull any of them rn and ill pull on their rerun

so im off to a few months of saving

[uneven pewter]

Dena has all the mechanisms needed to make a max raid

They just don’t want to pull the trigger

3 teams just like when we had to do ex battles with carries

Go with friends or go solo

[fallen path]

Gotta get those bonuses for good quarterly earnings

[tough oriole]

Even if they do add those stuff, high rank rewards would probably suck like LG/HS

[dreamy onyx]

prestige rewards are great tbh, just the execution was bad. but f2p will complain regardless, you aren't supposed to get everything

[ashen thunder]

Prestige is okay

If it wasn't for the blatant x5 boost

[uneven pewter]

That and they threw in a 5k x25 on a non new years event

[tough oriole]

I fundamentally disagree with giving a , the most valuable item in poma, to only the top players

[ashen thunder]

I was gemming pretty much everyday except 2 days and still missed rewards

Coz my Steven was only 1/5 back then iirc

[uneven pewter]

1000%

I absolutely despised the first prestige

[ashen thunder]

They pretty much stopped giving full candies at this point

Remember when random events used to give full candy

Now we get 2 coins max

[unkempt vortex]

Remember when we got stuff

Now we get skip tickets

[ashen thunder]

The weather duo release is the peak content we ever got

[unkempt vortex]

Aren’t skip tickets pog?

[ashen thunder]

Oh ye

We got 1000 skip tickets for anni

[dreamy onyx]

how about the top get a full candy and lower ranks get like 3 coins, 5 coins... rather than high score rewards now when everyone get 1 coins of each, and prestige gave gems too

[uneven pewter]

They probably realized they went overboard

[ashen thunder]

[uneven pewter]

And it’s all about consumer behavior graphs

[ashen thunder]

Well it was

Back during that time

But not in current days

[dreamy onyx]

but yeah people are mad about the medal from high score so i don't think they can ever add rewards like prestige again

[ashen thunder]

Especially when we have 8+ new limited units in single update

And they give 1000 skip tickets

[tough oriole]

I think the 1k skip tix are designed for new players, so that they don’t run out?

[ashen thunder]

They already give excessive amounts from dailies

[unkempt vortex]

This

[ashen thunder]

200 would have been fine for anni

That doesn't mean they have to reduce gems to give 1000 skip tickets

[unkempt vortex]

You could easily start getting an overflow within about 2 weeks or so

[dreamy onyx]

new players need more tome codex and sync orbs tho, skip tickets

[unkempt vortex]

Even then orbs aren’t a problem now either

[tough oriole]

Is it really reduced gems though? Considering the rallies and stuff, this month gives an above average about of amount

It’s not as high as last anni but it’s still good

[ashen thunder]

Newbies roll NCred anyways
Just ohko the stage with Blizzard

[unkempt vortex]

They’re in most exchanges and lodge gives a lot

[ashen thunder]

We only getting 28k gems this update

Rally rewards are dropping on 29th

So that counts for next update

They gave the usual anni 3k gems last month itself during nemona release

And last month gem count including that 3k wasn't spectacular either

[unkempt vortex]

It was funny when people were coping anni would be 30k+

[ashen thunder]

Also the rocket admin ticket looks like a variety banner tiered scout thing

So we are also only getting 1 shitty selector with only 3 choices

[unkempt vortex]

Wow variety paid gems

Def worth

[ashen thunder]

Coz I am trying to find sources for if it's a selector and there's no sign of it

[winged fossil]

It feels weird that anni is so low but I somehow still left the banner I went for this year with more gems than I came in with so I call that a W either way

[tough oriole]

There’s no free select, it’s a free guaranteed admin seemingly

So you’ll get petrel or archer, whichever one is less useful

[ashen thunder]

Ye, and it's likely tied to variety banner tho

[dreamy onyx]

imo variety pairs should've been 4* in a fair banner like rachel, sawyer and tina

[ashen thunder]

I am not having high hopes on it being free for everyone

[dreamy onyx]

people will pull for those

[winged fossil]

Ew it’s not even a select of them

[unkempt vortex]

Scam anni

[dreamy onyx]

variety is just blatant cash grab

[unkempt vortex]

It’s the an easy lazy cow that will be milked

Remember all these characters we haven’t released at all yet? Now get them for a limited time or never see them again

[ashen thunder]

People see Giovanni and rhydon

And will instantly pool

Eventho it's no costume or EX flavors

[tough oriole]

It’s not, absol said that it’s likely from a rally or the like
The variety banner has its own select ticket

[unkempt vortex]

Hey

People pulled on that eevee banner

[ashen thunder]

There's no mention on rallies in dev letter

Only selector mentioned is the shitty lodge PF one

[tough oriole]

Dev letter doesn’t even mention the varieties though?

Absol said clearly that he was confident that it’d be free

[ashen thunder]

Variety scout is mentioned

Free admin is not

There's no way they wouldn't mention free admin
Considering it's the only somewhat decent thing we are getting this anni

[tough oriole]

I just think its weird to have 2 separate tickets if one of them isn’t attached to the variety scout

[ashen thunder]

Weird

Knowing Dena, they'd brag so hard abt free stuff

Like how they are glorifying the current shitty selector with just 3 units

[unkempt vortex]

It’s dena

[ashen thunder]

Throwing in electric HS with such a selector is just pure evil

[unkempt vortex]

They changed after what happened

[ashen thunder]

Coz raihan is the only actual decent shit and other 2 are electric units

[round mason]

which one is the non paid?

[hard wave]

Wait is that why masterfairs r quarterly

[fallen path]

I’m just saying, since DeNA are on the stock market they have to ensure their shareholders are happy

[hard wave]

Makes sense

[fallen path]

So I suppose they have been looking at more ways to streamline revenue and be more like other games where they care about 10% of their customers who are whales vs the other 90% who are F2P and light spenders

[hard wave]

Me w 3/5 raihan, 2/5 marnie, and no N, who’s the character I wanted to use in lodge the most from the ones im missing

[ashen thunder]

I'd have preferred them just put all lodge PFs instead of blatantly making newbies pick for electric HS

I am missing Marnie and other 2 are already 3/5, that doesn't mean I actually want to pick her

[vestal leaf]

Don't you wanna take care of the 1.5 Anni tickets?

[mental skiff]

new player is so lucky... I joint the game and only wish for OG marnie and it took me a year now they get her free

[uneven pewter]

That’s how it starts

Little by little

They give you less pretties

[tough oriole]

The one that gives you a random exec, seemingly

[uneven pewter]

Until they are starving you

[uneven pewter]

?

[uneven pewter]

Ugh

[round mason]

ah...

||gotta hope rngesus gives me giovanni...||

[vestal leaf]

Execs = no gio

[unkempt vortex]

Gio is clearly not the leader of team rocket

[sturdy flower]

he's the janitor

with how often he has to clean up

[round mason]

i thought he was in the pool 🥹

is he?

[sturdy flower]

we don't know

[hard wave]

When is the ticket anyway? Sept 6th?

[vestal leaf]

I personally doubt it

The difference in quality between his kit and the admins is so wide I don't see DeNa giving us a chance to roll him, considering how stupid his 1/5 already is

[tough oriole]

Yeah, minors have monthly paid gem purchasing limits

[hard wave]

…may want to delete this too then

[unique ivy]

Yep thank you

It’s stupid

[unique ivy]

No 3k gems

[deft glen]

Is this the most troll gift they could've given?

Next gift will be music coins

[tough oriole]

There is 3k gems, just over 6 days i think?

[deft glen]

Is this new?

Or was it already in the previous gem count

I'm lost

[vestal leaf]

4k

[tough oriole]

Even better

[vestal leaf]

Nah it was datamined

[vestal leaf]

Not really, we used to get 3k rally +3k present

Iirc

[tough oriole]

Dont we also have rallies going on rn?

[vestal leaf]

Only a JP one iirc

We'll see how it goes

But it's way later

[hard wave]

We havent gotten anything new except that JP rally, and we dont get it until 9/29

Coping for more rallies

[deft glen]

Better quit the cope

Too late

[hard wave]

[tardy fiber]

Im coping the Villain co-op event will give gems or move coins or villain admin ticket

Need to wait till 6th sept to see what's it about.

[lapis pine]

Use them on favs who will appreciate the boost. Like even if ss morty (my fav) gets an ex role, unless it’s sprint role I wouldn’t considering using a cake on him cause it’d be redundant. However I’d probably give anni raihan his cake no matter the role since he’d appreciate all of them

[tough oriole]

Lillietea Field

[hard wave]

Id prob have some id consider, so id have to decide from them

[broken mulch]

Give me Field Cynthia for hilarity

August 28th just sorted my flying type needs, poison type needs and ice type needs

And steel cause of palmarnie

And fairy cause of ny lisia

Now my only type which i cant ontype is bug… and probably rock

Beautiful day

Meanwhile the banner’s rates will determine if i even bother with it

If the rockets share a drop rate then i am not bothering

If they each have individual chance drop rates I’ll try my luck

[mint zephyr]

I still don’t see what’s so monster about him tbh

[crisp oracle]

I would say that 1/5 isn't the craziest thing in the world tbh

[mint zephyr]

3/5 ex it is

[crisp oracle]

It's not just his damage though, its freeze off on B Ice Beam that is crazy

[mint zephyr]

By the end of the month if I get nothing imma just do it

[crisp oracle]

and no, you don't need to run him at 3/5. 1/5 is enough.

[maiden kayak]

hes not worth it period

[crisp oracle]

Truly yes

he doesn't need crit thanks to his passive

he maxes his special attack

even at that point, with guarenteed freeze they aren't gonna hit you back

so you don't need to one shot

[maiden kayak]

||i get that he has SMUN stuff, but still feel artificially inflating it is kinda whatever when supports wanna stack it||

[crisp oracle]

does he honestly need SMUN?

he's already powerful enough as is with literally everything in his base kit

[maiden kayak]

i just feel his dmg is kinda artificially inflated

instead of innate grid multipliers

[crisp oracle]

with the rebuff? oh yeah

||and if you have irida it's inflating it even more||

[maiden kayak]

same case for ||cleaf||

[crisp oracle]

||honestly CBlue is the best one of the bunch||

[maiden kayak]

||cleaf is even worse cos of sun and rebuff and she depends heavily on it||

[mint zephyr]

But what about if it’s like moltres stage where they don’t get frozen
