Resource Saving Support (Gem Zen)

[hard wave]

Firis doesnt have great dps I think, despite hyper beam

[tardy fiber]

I hope i get another poison fave dps and then i can change my fall iris to be more utility with acid mind games

[hard wave]

Im glad my poison and bug r better now tho, just need a good rock striker now || bug zone and steel zone would be nice too ||

[hard wave]

Oh yeah another one of her problems is she doesnt have good partners and w mind games roxie and koga do that alr and besides plumeria idt we have other special poison

[tardy fiber]

Im hopium for nihilego, Okidogi, Munkidori, Fezandipity to be poison

So that i can kick gladion from my poison team

[hard wave]

Buying stamina jumpscare

[sage ferry]

Huuuuush

I’m not gonna spend it

[feral vale]

There are other places you can show your gems without giving everyone a heart attack

[sage ferry]

I ain’t dumb ya know that

[tardy fiber]

I used to buy stamina when i just started, but at that time story quests also uses stamina and im getting gems to pull maxie and archie

[feral vale]

But who doesn’t?

[sage ferry]

Apparently not any of y’all

Ik what I’m doing

[unkempt vortex]

Do you

[sage ferry]

Duh

[sage ferry]

Apologies for the sudden outburst

[rare swan]

Just an FYI that spending of any kind - including on stamina - isn't permitted to be discussed here

We prefer to keep this thread dedicated to saving of resources only

[sage ferry]

You tell me this now than later…

[rare swan]

You're not in trouble, I'm just letting you know

[sage ferry]

Ty I geuss

I just wanted to show off

[rare swan]

We have #gacha-and-flex if you'd like to show off

There's more info about this channel and its rules in the pins

[sturdy hatch]

A reminder to get your steel gear now

[vernal glade]

There’s gems there also

[tardy fiber]

Let me double check my steel gear levels, would stink if they still not yet maxed and i will have to farm at EX plaza

Ok all maxed

[vernal glade]

Mines max and locked

[tardy fiber]

Only bug and normal 3* gears left

[hard wave]

Kind of hoping bug gear next month due to the bug weak but I doubt it

[bleak falcon]

Lusamine Power Boost with Bug Gear next month would be awesome

[hard wave]

And add her to lodge

[vernal glade]

Weren’t we getting type gears every two months?

[hard wave]

Tbh I kind of think we could get alola NCs cuz lillie and gladion dont have an alt photo but all unova lodge units have one

inb4 one of the unova NCs joins lodge and gets an alt photo too

[hard wave]

Yeah I think ice gear was the only exception

Tho that was prob for ice stadium, we could get calem stadium which should be bug weak

[vernal glade]

I could see bug gear in January.

[hard wave]

Yeah if not next month then january ig

Still hope its next month w calem stadium tho I hope they havent abandoned those

[tardy fiber]

Also excited for new rainbow feathers, im making a collection of those

[hard wave]

Im not sure abt the schedule;
Grass- april
Ice- june
Fire and psychic- september (tho fire was like 8/30)

[tardy fiber]

Not gonna dwell much on skill gears other than rainbow feathers

[hard wave]

Im just storing the feathers for now tbh

I have one set that I just used 1 yellow feather on and left it

[oak crest]

if we can lock all 3 lines of stats the rb feathers are the best for themes

[tardy fiber]

I would go hard on feathers rng if they allow us to spend ever pin on everything but nah, only 1 lock on themes and effects

So i just gonna focus on rainbow feathers now

[oak crest]

i just buy and keep them

u never know when dena decides to allow us to lock all the stats

[tardy fiber]

Guaranteed 3 nice themes, nice effects and stats similar to 3* gears

[tardy fiber]

Yep thats why i keep the green, yellow feathers and ever pins

[oak crest]

i keep the rainbow 1s

the most funny thing is

[tardy fiber]

Oh i use the rainbows because its a nice boost for ontype gears ...well those critastrophe 2% might help

[oak crest]

2 of my equips ended up helping for Anabel's

since they have more stats than the regular gear and the themes just happen to help all 3 of the chars

[tardy fiber]

Also i like that i can name my rainbow gears to rei, akari, and etc, it gives some nostalgia points...cannot wait for the event to rerun and then i can do it on second gear part

[crisp oracle]

https://tenor.com/view/james-special-one-jose-mourinho-gif-20649479

[oak crest]

just happen to luck out and got 2 of those with themes that boost all 3

[crisp oracle]

another month

no sc diantha

[pure arrow]

this just might be a skip month thank goodness

[grim plover]

Same

[hard wave]

Hdyk?

[crisp oracle]

it's not looking too great

but i could just be coping

[hard wave]

Well we dont know anything yet, guess we’ll see

Except ofc nate alt

[winged fossil]

Unless N shows up I might finally have a skip month on mfs

[round mason]

i'll skip the nate
Zerena's enough ig

[winged fossil]

Although the criteria for nc being what it is has me bracing for fav jumpscare

[hard wave]

|| nate is kind of tempting but ill see, I have 3/5 flyhan and zerena and 1/5 bt leon and ss cynthia for limiteds, I want him but I have enough dragon types zerena was rerun too so I got both her and leon recently ||

[winged fossil]

||I’m sure the Nate simps are happy tho||

[hard wave]

It seems like its just one tbh

#poma-lounge message
Also this

[winged fossil]

Solo nc would be suspicious to me but dena likes their surprises I suppose

[vernal glade]

Same here.

[hard wave]

It’d be nice hopefully there isnt any other new units that’ll tempt me and a good gem count

[winged fossil]

I also have to brace for whatever Xmas has in store. That should be this mine right

[rare swan]

It's just one pair besties, plenty more to come in the mine

[hard wave]

Yeah

[rare swan]

but congrats to the Nate enjoyers

[crisp oracle]

||Hoping for Aura Cynthia rerun||

[hard wave]

Last yr was ss leaf, 2nd anni, and hol pairs for reruns so im curious what reruns we’ll get

[lost bobcat]

Same

[hard wave]

Oh lodge banner ofc

[winged fossil]

If it is a dry next two month for me same here. But only if dec and Jan both dead favs

[lost bobcat]

Maybe they're doing like ssLusa ssrCynthia

[hard wave]

Hol rerun and sst red and ssa cynthia I assume, but what new and old PFs will we get? 17 min

[hard wave]

|| volo ||

[winged fossil]

I think my Volo prediction is already out the window if they aren’t putting it in trailer

[hard wave]

Why would they put it in

[crisp oracle]

Goodnight Lads, would be fun to stay and talk

You'll Never Walk Alone

[vernal glade]

Anyway, I’ll come back in 15 minutes.

[winged fossil]

I’ll prob be back around reset time ish, to avoid bringing up the new units in a channel meant for saving.prob will chill in lounge and dms with my friends while datamine comes in

[gloomy holly]

Welp, it's time y'all

[upbeat lotus]

Easy skip for me

[tardy fiber]

Hope there's lodge nate ..i gonna skip ncnate, but i would love for a lodge nate

[versed flame]

lodge cheren

[upbeat lotus]

These are weird ways to spell "the second Lodge N"

Lodge Jasmine

[round mason]

lodge jasmine :D

||greninja its so over||

[vernal glade]

Back.

[prime quarry]

Plz no Jasmine alt I wanna save

[round mason]

she's only getting lodge soo

[prime quarry]

Dawn got lodge at the beginning of the year and came with a seasonal outfit

We don't know all the details yet

[broken mulch]

Oh goddammit I wish I had double pity

[round mason]

none of them feel appealing to me 🧍‍♂️

[vernal glade]

Declaring it a skip.

[round mason]

time to skip

[grim plover]

Same

[vernal glade]

Time to continue waiting for my fave.

[tardy fiber]

Only 1 fave, quite nice for my 100k gems savings

More gems to carry to January

Goodluck Tai, 2 faves for you

[uneven pewter]

Oh god

Viola my French Belle has finally gotten justice

What even is this

[tardy fiber]

Tai christmas

[ashen thunder]

Kalos Xmas

[spring lodge]

I want to thank whoever kept me motivated to save up

because

[uneven pewter]

The correct answer

[spring lodge]

rosa I'm coming for you

[ashen thunder]

I am just happy lodge is accessible unit again instead of MF or PF

[tardy fiber]

Only 1 fave for me, quite nice ...1 fave within 3 months, nice distribution DeNa, i could save more

[grim plover]

I was prepared for this datamine but a skip month is nice to have

[round mason]

no faves for me
waiting for arven 🧍‍♂️

[ashen thunder]

Now I am just praying no support MFs coz support MFs hard to skip

[tardy fiber]

Oh right galar egg, maybe i should spend to get egg passes

[grim plover]

At this point I think it's Volo 4.5 anniversary

[ashen thunder]

[oak crest]

his foreshadowing came true, he was like if i dont get kalos unit on the next mine im gonna go nuts or smth

and he got awarded with 2

[tardy fiber]

Or Paldea

[broken mulch]

Seasonals last two weeks and NCs last a month right?

[oak crest]

yea NCs should last at least 1 mth

[round mason]

yeah i think?

[ashen thunder]

Usually 1 month for MF and roughly 3 weeks for seasonals

[broken mulch]

Thanks

[oak crest]

if Thorton's weakness is fire its gonna be fun

[lost bobcat]

Oh well they tried to fool us with just Nate trailer, it was quite sus not having two mfairs

[vernal glade]

Same.

[oak crest]

im glad it wasnt solo lol

[ashen thunder]

Nate is dps
Easiest skip ever

[lost bobcat]

I like the outfit, that's my weakness

[vernal glade]

||Rosa and Nate used to be faves for me, but decided to skip them since I’m waiting for hisui form Zoroark instead.||

[broken mulch]

The drip is my kriptonite

[sturdy hatch]

Let's remember not to go too into the new units here

[tardy fiber]

Bug gear now my Lusamine will be tankier

[upbeat lotus]

She dies from 2 hits instead of 1 now

[vernal glade]

Now we need normal

And we got them all

[ashen thunder]

Nah, she still dies in 1 hit

They had to give bug gears after 3k CS MM

now Noland can put bigger numbers atleast

[lost bobcat]

Just run skill gears, 50 def/spdef ez

[tardy fiber]

2 hits, she got endurance

[ashen thunder]

but endurance get bypassed by sync

[vernal glade]

Probably gonna make my co-op team now.

[uneven pewter]

Just saying though

[maiden kayak]

ngl

[uneven pewter]

I am happy for all the nate fans

[tardy fiber]

||Rosa MF on 25th December|| why a huge gap

[maiden kayak]

dec is a very good time to save

wait for NY

[uneven pewter]

The patience has paid off hopefully

[vernal glade]

I’m happy this a skip month.

[maiden kayak]

if u have not done so last month

[uneven pewter]

Haven’t even looked at the kits

[maiden kayak]

do it this month

NY is probably gonna bangers

[uneven pewter]

I mean

[rare swan]

i'm a clown

[maiden kayak]

luckily the banners are placed near the next datamine

[uneven pewter]

Yep

[maiden kayak]

so impulse pulls can be prevented

[winged fossil]

Well this already looks like a skip month easily. Especially when looks like no mf rerun this month lmao

[uneven pewter]

Which means easy saving till then

[maiden kayak]

just need to endure few days since the datamine is early on dec

[winged fossil]

Hell I don’t think I spotted a single rerun except Xmas alts

In the pastebin

[tardy fiber]

Nate on 30 November and Rosa on 25 December.

[oak crest]

[tardy fiber]

So 2 separate event or something?

[oak crest]

no idea

[gloomy holly]

That's weird

[oak crest]

dena being sus af by splitting them apart

[winged fossil]

Looks like separate event for Rosa in pastebin

[maiden kayak]

save month

rejoice

[gloomy holly]

I think they wanted to try something different from the NC events last year because it's the one-year anniversary of NCs

[winged fossil]

Which to me just means more gems probs

And coins

[tardy fiber]

Well i guess more gems

[maiden kayak]

save for NY

lets go

im sure NY is bangers

[broken mulch]

Is the Christmas event happening first then they’re doing the NCs?

[tardy fiber]

Christmas earlier than rosa i think

Let me recheck

[winged fossil]

||nate first then Xmas then rosa||

[oak crest]

yeah

Rosa probably is the last unit for this mine

[broken mulch]

How odd

[tardy fiber]

Viola on 12th and sycamore 14th

[maiden kayak]

bruh

u not supposed to talk about it here

[tardy fiber]

Well we are talking about event release date

Not pulling

[maiden kayak]

still the same

u are talking about the unit

[tardy fiber]

I see unit here

[maiden kayak]

grey area since op never mention name

[winged fossil]

What do they even call Xmas alts? Holiday? I’m trying to look up the past ones to triple check that they’re all skips

[tardy fiber]

Yep holiday

[maiden kayak]

just skip

save

save

save

i hope we get more gems tho this month

[tardy fiber]

New year, palentine, spring, fall, holiday

[winged fossil]

Thx

[maiden kayak]

this dec is proabably the last month u can save with ease

the next few months is gonna be brutal

[round mason]

30k this month pls

[tardy fiber]

I already saved on october, November with ease

[sonic cobalt]

Weather the storm, my brothers. Winter is coming.

[tardy fiber]

2 skip months

[oak crest]

same, already recovered back to pre-4th anni gem amts

[tardy fiber]

🤝

[winged fossil]

I’m still bamboozled by greninja icon but thankfully doesn’t seem to be related to new units

[tardy fiber]

Well i guess i got lodge jasmine to humour me while waiting

[oak crest]

that month was probably 1 of my biggest spendings, i went for 5 units lol

[grand bramble]

Hello guyz... Im finally back

[tardy fiber]

Welcome back

[round mason]

hi

[vernal glade]

They probably trying to make a nate icon probably. Probably a substitute.

[sonic cobalt]

Yes, huzzah for Lodge Jasmine. I was actually hoping she’d get lodge one day

[grand bramble]

Sorry that I wasn't around during my birthday... Too busy prep stuff

[tardy fiber]

Right no reason for not nate icon, he is release early...why frog icon?

[grand bramble]

At first... When I saw the icon, I instantly thought of someone... But then no.... Why am I high on copium sometimes lol

There's nothing much to say about this datamine

This warps up 2023

[sturdy hatch]

Happybirthday!

[gloomy holly]

Because celebration of the first NCs last year

[tardy fiber]

Oh right there's no MF rerun to replace ncserena?

[grand bramble]

Thanks.... ||congrats to you||

[winged fossil]

Yeah happy bday to you man

[grand bramble]

Thx

[oak crest]

it will be Rosa

[round mason]

||yes||

[oak crest]

y they make it this way is odd af tho

[tardy fiber]

Oh so in a month without new MF, they will rerun the old ones

[oak crest]

think this is the first time they run a new MF on master's day

instead of reruns

[winged fossil]

It’s odd cause they did reruns even with new ones before. ||Rosa just being a little trolling gremlin.||

[tardy fiber]

My hopium thinking that separating nate and rosa gives more gems, probably the answer they found after deleting bonanza and stamina rally

Because 2 separate events

[ashen thunder]

Rosa stays so long, makes it much easier to wait out and see

[grand bramble]

This year... We got some many upside and some downside
The downside are way too many recourses, limited, low gem count, paywalled unit

[oak crest]

u can think of it as a lazy way for devs tho, since they literally split 1 event into 2

[tardy fiber]

They adding another ultimate battle so another 300 gems that will be stuck in limbo

[round mason]

my ass is not clearing the ultimate battle

never.

[tardy fiber]

Still better than pokewar sc though where there's only 1 event and they timegated content to unlock every week

1 event for whole month

[grand bramble]

At least, one of my fave appeared this year.... Which is red... But at that point, Im already done

I just came back to play for fun.. collecting stuff and clearing content which is what I'll do in the future
But I will remember to always come visit here whenever I have an urge of pulling

[winged fossil]

pretty sure this should be spoilered, this is resource saving chat

we don't talk about pulling here.

[wise bison]

Ok I will quit. Thx

[tardy fiber]

I think i can complete 5* all non eggmon pairs this month, finally finally after years of playing

[winged fossil]

to answer the gem related question, should get minimal the amount you asked about, prob more. we'll know in a day or two prob the gem count, give or take a while.

average gemcount lately has been like 24k ish

and dec tends to be a higher count month

[tardy fiber]

Hopefully there's more gems, like there's
2 unova NC events
2 holiday (1 rerun)
There's alola VA rerun too, if they rerun EBE there will be more gems...so like 4 EBEs hopefully

[winged fossil]

personally im predicting higher end of the 20s, like 27-29k, but im no expert on gem counting.

if theyre generous itll be in the 30ks

[tardy fiber]

There's special cs too this month

[unkempt vortex]

Woah don’t get wild on us

[tardy fiber]

So 700 gems?

[unkempt vortex]

That’s crazy talk

[grand bramble]

I should say..... Umm around 27k

[winged fossil]

should be a LG too this month unless we're for some reason dropping that event this month, although that isnt a gem source iirc

[tardy fiber]

I wont mind 27k, way better than 23270 this month

Wait its 23570 because maintenance apologems

[winged fossil]

apparently this months cs is alola...how hard would you say alola was relative to the other cs regions, vanter?

[oak crest]

alola is manageable

its Kalos, Sinnoh and Hoenn that are the problem regions

[tardy fiber]

I forgot how hard it is but if its too hard, i wont chase 15k ...just gonna do old 12.5k cs

[grand bramble]

I was aware yesterday maintenance.... And unfortunately there is no update... just one day ahead from my birthday lol

[tardy fiber]

But man seeing this datamine, i guess 3/5 registeel plan will be much later...||as there's support MF fave and MF > BP for candy priority for me||

[grand bramble]

Is the candy coins count getting lower?

[tardy fiber]

Not really there's more in a month

But we have 5 roles now

[grand bramble]

Well... It'll takes a while to get ONE of them

[oak crest]

its spread between 5 coins

in a way its lower if u count individual type

[tardy fiber]

Yep total is way more, especially thanks to mysterious stones

I think i will skip buying egg passes for galar starter egg, i did it for eevee because they have a bunch of limited WTZ. It feels too expensive to spend 1k paid for galar starters

[winged fossil]

coins up, candy speed down very slightly.

[tardy fiber]

I guess more gems saved for me then

[oak crest]

its just 3 of em

compared to eevee's 8?

[tardy fiber]

Yep thats why i feel its expensive

Not like its phione/cosmog/kubfu

[oak crest]

and the most they will bring is prob sun/rain and grassy terrain

[tardy fiber]

True

[oak crest]

for grass yeah will be useful

the other 2? nah not rly

fire and water hse is history

[grand bramble]

well... Let's talk about the upside this year
The upside are more content, more difficult and challenges, some character from DLC make their debut and lastly many people came to this tread

[tardy fiber]

But like there's a lot of grass now isnt it... sprigatito and leafeon

[oak crest]

yeah 2 of em

[tardy fiber]

The biggest thing i like this year are the role cake and characters that have 0 alt finally getting alts

Role cake is good because each pair only need 1

[lost bobcat]

Eevees are a total of 8 but all tech
Galar are 3 x 3 roles

[round mason]

i have yet to get a leafeon from the eevee eggmon stuff
pls game

[grand bramble]

The role cake and gear stuff are confusing for me.... Especially the passive name changing... ugh

[oak crest]

besides terrain setters, i dont really care abt striker/tech eggmons

support might be worth bothering if their TM can max out speed

[tardy fiber]

Skill gear is just RNG fest

[lost bobcat]

Are all potioners
Just LG stuff

[oak crest]

yeah

[tardy fiber]

But their low stats though hardly balanced out their advantage...i hope they release affinity level 4 cakes or something, more stats will be nice if eggmon grids are so hard to be implemented

[oak crest]

i do use eggmon speed buffers for LG since u will eventually run out of those units that buff speed

[grand bramble]

What do you guyz expect for next year??? Increase gems count?? More recourses?? More candy??

More faves??

[tardy fiber]

Paldea stuffs

[oak crest]

probably Paldea

faves, idk

until they add Kieran, I have 0 trainer faves

[vernal glade]

Hoping that I’ll save for months.

[round mason]

i have like 4 paldea faves
next year will not be kind to me

[grand bramble]

Hey... Finally you got a fave.... ||who is it? ||

[oak crest]

mon faves are not that common to appear for me anw also

[tardy fiber]

There's already SV icon in this datamine...well region field passive icon that have SV color

[tardy fiber]

||meloetta ||

[grand bramble]

Yeah... Paldea... And don't forget hisui too

[tardy fiber]

I kinda lack interest on Hisui after DeNa treat them as Sinnoh, i like more if they separate them

[grand bramble]

It's good for you to have all of your faves collected if it wasn't for this thread... Right?

[tardy fiber]

Now probably less sinnoh character will get alt

[oak crest]

if they separate them the EBE back then would be unclearable

since they literally just up and release an EBE when there is only 2 hisui units

[tardy fiber]

They should release them in the masses slowly like Paldea

[oak crest]

yea

[tardy fiber]

With 0 region tag

[oak crest]

(I still have 0 Paldea units atm)

[tardy fiber]

Same

[grand bramble]

Wait... We still got many galarians missing

[tardy fiber]

Milo, Kabu, Opal i guess

Swordwart, Shielbert

[maiden kayak]

klara

[grand bramble]

And lastly peony

[tardy fiber]

Avery

[oak crest]

have they added any DLC exclusive chars yet so far?

not mons

[vernal glade]

Mustard also missing

[grand bramble]

Only the hisui and let's go

They count as DLC right

[vernal glade]

Honey also.

[oak crest]

actually was referring to Sword/Shield DLC chars

[tardy fiber]

Give honey a gmax saur, well because the premium red didn't have it

[oak crest]

idk about the other 2 if they have DLCs

[grand bramble]

Not yet

[tardy fiber]

I just noticed something good in this datamine, there's no Variety

[oak crest]

rare occasion

[grand bramble]

Wait... No special costume too?

[tardy fiber]

Well aint SC usually on November

[vernal glade]

I mean, closest we got is the dojo outfit which is dlc only which is Gloria and Urshifu so ya.

[tardy fiber]

Not usually, but pokewar was

[grand bramble]

Oh wait.... Zinnia, steven-

Nvm nvm

[oak crest]

idt we had any new SC event this 2nd half of the year

besides SC Rosa's rerun

[vernal glade]

April was SC

[tardy fiber]

They deleted spring pairs and changed them to SC pairs...spring costume

Lodge jasmine with magnemite, thanks DeNa ...i like to wreak havoc with small cute pokemons

Like joltik, fletchling, fennekin

[broken mulch]

Last year lots of gems, two years ago just average

Hoping this Christmas there’s a lot

[tardy fiber]

[upbeat lotus]

All I want for Christmas is gems

[vernal glade]

We know we getting an EBE for Christmas, so more gems on that day.

[tardy fiber]

More gems are nice especially when half anni aint that far away

And who knows, it might be trio MF again

[radiant sapphire]

I really hope there is a good gem month.

[tardy fiber]

Iirc they give us free 3k gems on new year, well it might be inside January datamine instead

[radiant sapphire]

I need to save paid gems and free gems

I NEED to do it i gotta resist the temptation to pull anything

Even tho i dont particularly want anything except some old holiday pair

[tardy fiber]

Resist it till run up for half anni, DeNa will give free 100 pulls to release the itch

[radiant sapphire]

I can't wait that long

I know i can't

[round mason]

you could also do pull sims

those work for me

[radiant sapphire]

that's not the same satisfaction

[tardy fiber]

Goodluck...seasonal rerun banner is horrendous

I think the rates now are worse than rocket banner

[radiant sapphire]

Wait there's no select ?

[tardy fiber]

Got

Via tiered

10k paid iirc or 7500

Between those

[oak crest]

there might be a select on 5th anni

if you are willing to wait

ik im gonna select viola when they drop seasonal selects

[tardy fiber]

Yep aint half anni got seasonal select too last year

[oak crest]

3.5 doesnt have it i remember

[tardy jolt]

Selects are in New Year

[tardy fiber]

Oh so only normal fair select?

[oak crest]

yea

they are not that generous in rerunning seasonal selects that many times

[tardy fiber]

New year only have PF and its 5k each

[oak crest]

since they would prefer ppl spending 10k or 20k(for new pairs) on the tiered scouts

[tardy fiber]

Because its one of the best as we can choose from any seasonal

Not like PF select where like choose 1 of these 5 PF choices

[oak crest]

yeah

[tardy fiber]

Seasonal select is great

[tardy jolt]

Btw, why is Greninja in the icon? Lol, so random. Fo Serena?

[oak crest]

i think so

no other units this month has a frog

[tardy fiber]

Best assumption is its first NC anniversary

Frogs

[versed flame]

A Glimmering Night of Gifts
Start: 25-12-2023 06:00:00
End: 31-12-2023 06:00:00
Day 1: 💎 Gems x3000

[tardy fiber]

[tardy jolt]

I guess they see the new faces as too unpopular lol. They’ll probably put Rosa closer to her release

[tardy fiber]

That bump out the gem count for sure

[versed flame]

full login bonus list
https://pastebin.com/PGhMRcFd

[radiant sapphire]

6k200 gems from the login bonus

[tardy jolt]

Need to get up to 34k

Tbh, in terms of banner this feels like a very tame month? They are basically matching last year and substituting the 2021 MFs rerun with the two triple PFs scouts

Pretty balanced, I guess we should brace ourselves for an intense NY lol

[versed flame]

yeah it's actually pretty light on the banners which surprised me 🤔

though i personally am a ||unova|| fan so it's going to be a gem drain

[lost bobcat]

Yes, basically 2 mf and 2 seasonals
Kinda

But in the end seems in line with the last year

[tardy jolt]

Btw, with these new seasonals, they are on a streak of first alts. I wonder if they’ll keep it up for NY, those also have quite the track record, even if we tend to often get a very popular character
Well, must be prepared, the December to March streak is the death zone for savers

[maiden kayak]

well this time dec is relatively easy to save imo

[mossy hawk]

Masterfairs are masterfairs

[tardy jolt]

Just like last year, with maybe a bit more unpopular seasonals? Jasmine was a very anticipated unit

[radiant sapphire]

Im a ||unova|| hater so it's really easy to skip

[tardy jolt]

Not that it mattered for me, but comparatively this year might be a bit easier, considering that the reruns are also concentrated in the best banners that we have, the triple fair

[radiant sapphire]

I think i'll do the holiday tiered scout but im not even sure if i do it

[tardy jolt]

In general a good month for stacking up gems, if the gems count is good like last time

[tardy jolt]

Just wait for the Anni selects smh

[lost bobcat]

Jasmine and Whitney were really good both as pair and design

And the two frongs with their type gimmick, bmove were also huge

[tardy jolt]

Yeah, this year is way more tame in comparison

But we still have the gimmicky new MFs

[tardy fiber]

Only 1 fave so i like this month

[tardy jolt]

As always December is a juicy appetizer for the big banners season

[lost bobcat]

Wonder if they'll slow down the first psrt of the year, bcs mix banner refresh

[tardy jolt]

Finally they are toning down the mythical sand UB, glad to see regular mins back lol

[tardy fiber]

At least now that VA is out of the way, i feel more at ease for legendaries, mythicals release...they probably wont come out in droves often

[tardy jolt]

NY they need to go ham, it’s where big spending happens

[tardy fiber]

So missing unova faves for me are terrakion, thundurus, Virizion...well Virizion might go to Morgan

[tardy jolt]

Then we have Plentines and then Half Anni, they’ll go hard

[tardy jolt]

Landorus?

[tardy fiber]

Oh right Magearna might release on Palentine

[tardy fiber]

There's Nita

Already got it

[tardy jolt]

Oh yeah, the incarnate lol

I always forget them

[tardy fiber]

Sinnoh still got a bunch, manaphy, phione, arceus, enamorus, azelf, uxie, heatran

Oh right, my dream comes true ||finally there's a unova support fave ||

[compact pasture]

30K gems?

[tardy fiber]

No gem count yet

But there's a ||support MF||

[opaque cargo]

I hate next month. Noooooo

Maybe i should delete poma for the whole next month

[unkempt vortex]

Or just not come back

Free yourself

[tardy fiber]

I love it, its kinda tame...no variety lazy alts, also looks like there's more gems

[opaque cargo]

Huhu

I hate this game

[tardy fiber]

I will love it more if the EBE is easy

[opaque cargo]

Ebe ez with the featured pairs. Learnt not to wreck my brains trying to beat everytime

[tardy fiber]

But i not gonna pull the pair

[opaque cargo]

Ur name makes me wonder about it tho

[tardy fiber]

I probably EX Iris, iirc she is my only unova dragon

[opaque cargo]

The free iris?

Haxorus iris?

[tardy fiber]

I collect legendaries, mythicals, UBs, paradoxes

[tardy fiber]

Yeap

I don't have hydreigon

[opaque cargo]

I just ex claire just to see her ex outfit

Maybe ill ex fantina to see what her ex dress color

[unkempt vortex]

It’s yellow

And like ash SST red yellow

[opaque cargo]

Fantina?

Ok then

[tardy fiber]

I kinda like it, because there's not even any yellow shade on mismagius and suddenly DeNa gives her Yellow EX

Just like Sabrina, suddenly Mewtwo color

[unkempt vortex]

You know you can see the color without ex them right

[opaque cargo]

I also love sabrina ex color

Really? Well i just want to ex them just to see in lobby

Plus i think i need to ex fantina to beat 3k ghost cs

[tardy fiber]

Oh right, purple shirt MC on December's poma day?

[tardy jolt]

Reference for Iono’s teratype ace /s

[opaque cargo]

Oh man i was hoping the gloves also yellow color and her hair too

[tardy jolt]

Oh yeah, finally a slightly harder CS for the 3k run

[tardy fiber]

Paldea soon, i wonder if the gym leaders will be paired with their tera type pokemons ...iono mismagius and brasius sudowoodo

[tardy jolt]

I’d expect their Paldea Pokémon to show up tbh

[opaque cargo]

Oh dang tera zard, better ready my gem

[tardy jolt]

Ioni for example is with bellybolt in all her merch

[opaque cargo]

Sorry rosa, i have new goals

[rare swan]

y'all this is a good lesson. 1) be careful what you wish for and 2) faves can appear at any time, which is why we save

[tardy fiber]

Hope for a nice gem count

[round mason]

i have learned the hard way multiple times

[tardy jolt]

Sycamore mugged Ramos to get his first alt

[sturdy flower]

ask and you shall receive

[rotund sleet]

holiday viola is peak

i’m coming back

[dark oar]

we hitting 30k gems for this december? D:?

[cunning swan]

amen

[cunning swan]

Nate, Nate my boy, finally gettng his time to shine

[compact pasture]

Will they release a support with field role?

[cunning swan]

Someday ™️

[unkempt vortex]

The answer is never

[tardy fiber]

So now the new meme will be Selene and Elio i guess, because they have alt but its only variety ...nate winning

[latent salmon]

someday is a day in 3001

[unkempt vortex]

Wrong Lucas too

[tardy fiber]

Oh right Lucas

[sturdy flower]

Lucas still winning

his is actually good

[winged fossil]

when Rei is a Lucas alt in disguise /s

[tardy fiber]

Just like ||Kukui and Masked Royale|| looks similar but different

DeNa allows duplicate trainers in a single team just to help him

[radiant sapphire]

Really ? 💔

[cunning swan]

Woah that's quick??

[lofty relic]

i'll wait for Tlim's assessement too

[cunning swan]

Take on a serious Nate 😭

[oak crest]

can be used as a rough estimate ig

until Tlim is done

[dire meteor]

still no blissful bonannza apparently

nor LA missions

[oak crest]

dena deleted them

☠️

[cunning swan]

I miss the blisseys

[ashen thunder]

nate coming for revenge after seeing all the memes passed around the last 3-4 years

[maiden kayak]

ohhh i think this is excluding xmas gems

[radiant sapphire]

No they are here

It's "a glimmering night of gifts"

[tawny cedar]

SYCAMOREEEE

So glad i saved

[upbeat lotus]

He got tired of even Nate meme

[tawny cedar]

So our gem count is 26k this month?

[upbeat lotus]

Yes, according to shiro's chart

[tawny cedar]

Nice

[upbeat lotus]

Im still waiting for Tlim's one

[tawny cedar]

So i can pity sycamore and have 10k for jan

[ashen thunder]

Now almost everyone has alt
Even nate

[radiant sapphire]

Not Barry tho

[dreamy onyx]

Good amount of gem tbh

[ashen thunder]

Barry can go THUD himself

[radiant sapphire]

Why

[tardy fiber]

Well better than November for sure

Im alright i guess with 26.5

[broken mulch]

Oh man SS Korrina keeps rerunning in the worst time. Gonna have to skip her AGAIN

[oak crest]

this is her first rerun for unpaid gems actually

[rare swan]

yup

[torpid prawn]

Sygna Suit Korrina & Marshadow

[oak crest]

the past she has only appeared in select

[stray steeple]

How many gems left for this month?

[tardy fiber]

I thought she will appear more often because she's the only ghost pokefair and bunch of legendary arena bosses weak to ghost...but nah, more Redlax reruns instead

[trim heron]

honestly, before the last LG. The LG banner tend to rerun older units

I do wonder how many gems are left before the Eevee's leave

[tardy fiber]

Maybe she will appear again for ghost high score, high score banner features fairly new pairs

[ashen thunder]

redlax has paralysis and def down so he "counters" more LG than sskorrina

[trim heron]

Shame I'm skipping SS Korrina again (If I didn't get the worst luck imaginable this month )

[tardy fiber]

Well thats true but i dont think it warrants like 6 reruns or more for him

[radiant sapphire]

This chat will be my New poma lounge for the month

[round mason]

how many gems are we getting this month?

[radiant sapphire]

Around 26k

[round mason]

oof

[onyx tinsel]

8k less than last year

Pretty awful

[upbeat lotus]

Still higher than recent months

[broken mulch]

Oh huh

Couldn’t have pulled for her the last time then lol

[ashen thunder]

I was expecting 23k so I am happy with what we got

[radiant sapphire]

Guys

They killed blisseys

Blisseys Funeral will be held soon

[spring lodge]

GUYS

REMEMBERED

WHEN I SAIE

Lana will come next patch

AND SHE CAME

[maiden kayak]

nobody cares

just save

[spring lodge]

wow your so unique

[upbeat lotus]

Yeah focus on saving for your targets

[spring lodge]

thank u gakon

[upbeat lotus]

Im happy for Lana fans tho

[spring lodge]

I hope I get her quick so I can have some leftovers for rosa

she looks so pretty

[upbeat lotus]

Remember, plan wisely

[spring lodge]

yesyes

[upbeat lotus]

Pulling talk is not allowed here, spoiler that

Both stay until datamine, you should be patient

[pure arrow]

I was expecting at least 28k tbh…

[sweet tide]

shiro's and my count will be different due to the cut off dates

[upbeat lotus]

And you are not planning wisely tho

[sweet tide]

mine is higher cos my cut off is 31 dec

[maiden kayak]

ohh

[spring lodge]

oh my bad

[sweet tide]

but yes its 26k

[spring lodge]

howooo

well I think

[upbeat lotus]

[spring lodge]

if I would to use like

36k on lana

I would get the others

and maybe 3

and then I would have

[maiden kayak]

?

[spring lodge]

2 months to save for rosa

[upbeat lotus]

Always prepare for the worst scenario

[maiden kayak]

counting your eggs before they hatch isnt the best strategy

[spring lodge]

okayy

[pure arrow]

disappointing gem count + NY rerun banner in January means this is going to be a skip month for me, ||no matter how much I like Gogoat||

[ashen thunder]

2months saving for rosa is only when you aren't rolling for anybody else

[maiden kayak]

ditch rerun

simple

those have cancerous rates

[ashen thunder]

triple banner is the 4.5% rate tho, MF is 1%

[maiden kayak]

its still cancerous if u are going for 1

[ashen thunder]

true true

[pure arrow]

look, I’m strictly F2P and aiming for NY Lisia (and also lowkey want NY Sabrina and Volkner)

[maiden kayak]

ditch

[pure arrow]

I think this is the only option I have for her

[ashen thunder]

You'd just select seasonals usually

[maiden kayak]

or else yall have bottleneck with new units

[ashen thunder]

Seasonal rerun is bait

[pure arrow]

strictly F2P

[hard wave]

Wait rlly?

[rare swan]

26k is a healthy number

[ashen thunder]

It's not disappointing

It looks on par with anni gem count

[hard wave]

26k?

[upbeat lotus]

Being above average is good enough for me

[maiden kayak]

they realised they have given too many gems last year

lol

[hard wave]

Shouldnt december be atleast 30k

[pure arrow]

I mean it’s kinda lower than it was around this time at last year so it’s gonna be a little disappointing to me

[ashen thunder]

Don't factor in last year

The first ever December gem count is less than 20k

That doesn't mean all December gem count were 20k

[sturdy flower]

no variety at least

[pure arrow]

yeah but we have another Ultimate Battle so it cancels out

[ashen thunder]

This year anni we got like half the gems as last year

So if anything

More than 15k itself is a blessing

[maiden kayak]

on the bright side tho

we get more coins

just that now theres 5 roles

[pure arrow]

I just can’t bring myself to think of “more than 15k” as more than a bare minimum with all the banners coming out these days

[tardy fiber]

True, hope this continues

[ashen thunder]

hsycamore instead got variety tier kit

[hard wave]

Is that good?

[ashen thunder]

I like more skippable options

So yes

[hard wave]

[pure arrow]

thank goodness I lowkey needed to be dissuaded from ||pulling him||

[maiden kayak]

very appreciated

those are bane of existence

[tardy fiber]

Does pomatools already updated? I want to see lodge jasmine kit

[ashen thunder]

I like variety as long as they are free

Tbh I am surprised they skipped out on 5/5 expansion this month

So only kukui powerboost this time

[tardy fiber]

Kukui powerboost any good?

[hard wave]

Oh wait I forgot there’s no expansion

[ashen thunder]

more self sufficiency

[hard wave]

Its basic things, she can lower defense and has a tm thundershock and I think x defense all or smth

[ashen thunder]

It's good buff

[hard wave]

Passives r endurance recup and smth else, I didnt see grid

[tardy fiber]

Oh nice, i love good buff...like recent leaf, i start to use her more after buff

Finally her tm does stuffs

[tardy fiber]

Oh i see, she's electric or steel?

[upbeat lotus]

Steel

[tardy fiber]

Oh neat, i dont think i have much steel support

[hard wave]

Steel

[upbeat lotus]

Gyro Ball, Thunder Shock, Screech and a mid TM

[hard wave]

Her moves r thunder shock gyro ball screech and tm

Yeah

Endurance lithe and recup 1

[ashen thunder]

wait she's support?

I thought she's tech

[upbeat lotus]

I dont like her kit and grid much but i still EX her because of fav

[tardy fiber]

Oh she's a tech?

[upbeat lotus]

She is a support

[pure arrow]

gauntlet fodder let’s go baybeeeee

[ashen thunder]

Wtf, steel has more F2P support access than fire

Steel hs doko

[tardy fiber]

Would be helpful for steel HS also im glad that i will finally 5* all non eggmon pairs...so most after this will become

I abandon 5* shiny eggmons project...i got a bunch of em now, better that i just focus on EXing more pairs

[vestal leaf]

Remember we're likely getting a Xmas 3k gems present or smth next month too

[hard wave]

[mossy hawk]

We are, it has been counted

[tardy fiber]

Its already calculated iirc

[mossy hawk]

There is no hiding it, with the lack of bonanza,la missions and rallies the gem count will stay lower than it was last year

[tardy fiber]

Will we get new year gems present DeNa?

[hard wave]

wth

[ashen thunder]

you mean
50 and 1 field and sprint role cake coin

[tardy fiber]

I know that some people hates stamina rally due to not able to spend 2500 stamina in 7 days...but why does DeNa remove LA missions and blissful bonanza

[crisp oracle]

Blissey got tired of being a damage sponge every month

[ashen thunder]

LAmissions is 1.1k gems per month
Blissey is roughly 3k gems

If you add em to past few gem count

[mossy hawk]

I'm not on the Dena is greedy movement, nor am I thinking EoS is near, but there is no denying that they are lowering the monthly gem income

[tardy fiber]

I love to punch them using buzzma now they're gone

[ashen thunder]

It'd be what we usually get

[mossy hawk]

Yeah

It can only be offset by many events

[oak crest]

1 day imma use Og Guzma with pin missile on the yellow rats for master day stage

[ashen thunder]

I personally don't think losing 1 extra multi per month is anything notable

[oak crest]

1 "faint" is not enough

[ashen thunder]

But the problem is mainly banner quality

[oak crest]

5

[ashen thunder]

I am quite certain not many people would have cared if varieties didn't exist

Like this month gem count is really decent

[sturdy flower]

1 pity per year

[oak crest]

no variety too

[tardy fiber]

Talking about this, i guess them separating Nate and Rosa to be 2 events is to help boost gems. But still not enough to fill the removed contents gems

[oak crest]

or they are just lazy to think of more units/events

[pure arrow]

variety isn’t enticing to me anyways, I feel the decrease in gems way harder than the banner bloat tbh (assuming you mean variety to be the main factor in this)

[grim plover]

Yeah, Rosa running on masters day will boost her sales. There's gems deals that day

[ashen thunder]

I like variety.......... if they give one free whenever they run

Like the eevees

[tardy fiber]

Well both have different stories and different event badges so probably not that lazy...its not like timegated pokewar or tea party sc event

Pokewar sc first run is the driest month i ever experienced

[grim plover]

that was cool yeah

[tardy fiber]

1 event for the whole month and its timegated to unlock one each week

[oak crest]

i dont hate that event tho

that is when I got my "free carry" unit SCDiantha

[tardy fiber]

Hoping that the mystery stones chapter to become big enough like VAs so probably can get more gems

But currently its like paulo interlude

one 10 gems story every month

[grand bramble]

27k....yep

That's good enough

[vestal leaf]

Likely 3k present around Xmas too

[tardy fiber]

Its already calculated

We get it on 25th

[vestal leaf]

I didn't see it

[sturdy flower]

rally with champion spirits?

3rd story arc when

[vestal leaf]

"a glimmering night of gifts" ig

Damn I hoped we'd get 29-30k

Sad

Still good ig

2021 we had 24k

[crisp grotto]

Tbf I think 26k is fine, there's like 4 characters this month

[hard wave]

Definitely, may was out last month that was over 30k I think

[vestal leaf]

Yeah but 2 mfs and one of the best trio reruns of the game's history

[crisp grotto]

[tardy fiber]

Well if people keep pulling everything that came out of course it feels not enough

[sturdy flower]

i will be too busy playing Paldea DLC to care about the gem count ~~ or LG~~

[maiden kayak]

perfect for skip month

[tardy fiber]

Sad that there's no paldea pairs or welcome indigo disk login bonus or something

[vestal leaf]

I'll probably spend but not as much as I had feared

[sturdy flower]

was it December the month with an early datamine

or a different one

[vestal leaf]

Because after all I fully skipped alola just in hindsight for a rerun like this

[hard wave]

December for january

[vestal leaf]

Dec and February usually

[tardy fiber]

But seeing rosa event starts on 25, datamine might be late

[vestal leaf]

Depends

[sturdy flower]

so maybe Rosa will be mentioned there

[vestal leaf]

I'm expecting datamine for 26 or 29

I doubt it'll be before Rosa drops

[broken mulch]

Wait we get a gem tally already?

[rare swan]

an initial estimate yeah

[tardy fiber]

4 more rainbow feathers

My rainbow gear collection grows nicely

[oak crest]

im probably collecting them for theme purposes

if dena decide to allow us to lock all 3 lines of stats 1 day it will be the day I use those rb feathers

[tardy fiber]

All 12 still from different typings, cannot wait for the day when they started to overlap so that i can build a full set rainbow feather gears

[broken mulch]

26k… not bad. Hope it’s 26,999 haha

[tardy fiber]

Is this like one of those battle facilities in the game? Hope the gems rewards are not too hard to get

[oak crest]

i wonder tho

will u be able to use the same pairs

(but they will retain their mp usage and damage sustained)

[tardy fiber]

I like that there's exclusive items, maybe can pave way for new held items for us other than gears in the future

I like more customizations

[oak crest]

ig its for the new battling content only and unusable anywhere else

[upbeat lotus]

update Battle Villa first then we talk

[tardy fiber]

I hope they update villa too, well 10 more floors might cover some of the removed contents gems

[oak crest]

however, if they want us to replay this over and over again

they will need to provide incentives

(like the limited time LA missions)

if rewards is crap idt any1 will bother after their first clears

[tardy fiber]

They said rewards vary based on points remaining after completing final battle

So exchange points to get items for strengthen pairs, but you will have less points remaining at the end so less points for rewards

Need to find sweet spot where we dont use points much while can still clear final battle

[broken mulch]

Very reminiscent of Battle Castle from Gen 4. Looking forward to it

[radiant sapphire]

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

I WANT ||TAPUS|| BUT THEY MIGHT BE IN A SELECT JANUARY

[tardy fiber]

Or half anni select

[upbeat lotus]

they stay until January anyway, you got time to decide

[radiant sapphire]

Oh cool then

[upbeat lotus]

also just in case, spoiler Tapu talk too

[radiant sapphire]

Sorry mb

[oak crest]

they will have to refresh the rewards from time to time tho

if not once ppl hit the max rewards they wont even touch it anymore

[versed flame]

it does sound like a battle facility style event which is pretty cool

[hard wave]

I wonder when we’ll get this and the photo mode thing

[versed flame]

surprised they dropped ||viola alt|| and not yet photo mode

[tardy fiber]

Yeap hope its like villa, new rewards every month

[idle shard]

Here’s something I want to ask
Going to skip December and I have 150k gems
Should I pull V Lyra?
Reasons to pull V Lyra:
-next year the V Eeveelutions might get cake
-but next year they might all rerun on 1 banner (5 eeveelutions on 1 banner)
-and I already have V Elio and V Selene

Reasons against pulling V Lyra:
-There might be a support rain caller unit released between now and V Lyra getting cake (if she gets cake at all)

[dark oar]

inb4 they go up to 40 floors 😮
with +1000 gem increase.... could work.

[upbeat lotus]

is she your fav?

if she is not, the answer you will get here is no

[idle shard]

Well she has a decent kit and I want to have a support ex with rain caller when one eventually becomes available (either with V Lyra getting cake or a new new support unit getting rain caller)

[vestal leaf]

Is she a fave?

[vestal leaf]

Well if you like her

And Vaporeon

Sure

[versed flame]

the next year all rerun on banner isn't much of a point if you're projecting to possibly spend whole pity anyway

[idle shard]

True but I would rather not have dupes of units I already have when I could get units I don’t already have instead

[versed flame]

suppose, ig it's just not as much of a deciding factor (more a bonus)
better might be to think about whether there's any possible other units that could make you regret pulling in the next few months

also would you still be happy with her even if she doesn't get cake next year

[idle shard]

I have 4 pities worth of gems
Units I would likely want to pull on would be
Support Rain Caller unit
Support Power Plant unit
Manectric
Paldea rock or dragon striker
Arven
and any and all Infernape units

[upbeat lotus]

just in case, you should put all pulling talk in spoiler talk here

[idle shard]

Well I am skipping December so I won’t even mention any of those units

[versed flame]

paldea might be a danger

[idle shard]

Right, so the cautious thing to do is to save

[dark oar]

I'd just try to get lucky with next year's Eevee Ticket (if we get that again)

[idle shard]

Right
||1 in 7 chance of getting Vaporeon, and 5 in 7 chance of getting a unit I don’t already have if V Leafeon and V Glaceon are added next year||

[dark oar]

basically yeah.

[versed flame]

anyway if you were looking to pull her because she's a support rain caller, consider that she only sets rain on sync, so she uses them up

[upbeat lotus]

not sure if that is a good advice or not

[dark oar]

Its a free ticket; No gems needed... but you do have to be wishing ;_;

[versed flame]

ig that makes sense if you only vaguely want a pair, depends if it's really a fave/want or not

though it relies on assuming that we'll get free ticket again

[idle shard]

And assuming that they get cake
And assuming if all 5 eeveelution will either be in 2 banners or 1 banner

[upbeat lotus]

giving advice entirely based on assumptions is not too reliable imo

[idle shard]

True but sometimes we don’t know when is the best time to pull a unit
I.E.
if you wanted Ingo and Emmet then the best chance to get them both with free gems would have been the Ingo and Emmet duel banner, but that wasn’t a guarantee when we had Emmet on a select banner and Ingo in a triple banner prior to the Ingo and Emmet duel banner

[tardy fiber]

Few days left to form role cakes, i can give 3 faves cake roles next month

[idle shard]

Nice 🙂

[dark oar]

6 more days to get a Support Cake.

without having to use my Daily Tickets.

[hard wave]

Tbh we could get one next yr, and who knows when we’ll get EX roles for reruns that arent MFs

[idle shard]

meanwhile I am sitting on 40 support cake coins

[hard wave]

Also id suggest just going for SS Kris if u can imo

[idle shard]

Exactly
New units getting cake roles is nice but older units getting cake roles would be nice also

[hard wave]

Yeah esp w the better split banners it’d be nice to get cake coins from those

[versed flame]

EXR for free/gen pool units when

[idle shard]

Gladeon with Striker for the lolz

[hard wave]

Many of them dont even have an EX so

[idle shard]

poor flint

[upbeat lotus]

Lenora and Ryuki called

[unkempt vortex]

Never

[versed flame]

*old gen pool units

[hard wave]

Oh yeah newer 3/4*s dont even have EXR so

[unkempt vortex]

At the rate they do this stuff everyone won’t get it

[hard wave]

Eve tina and the last 3 lodge pairs + jasmine

[upbeat lotus]

Eve and lodge pairs make sense for now, since they have been giving EXR to gacha units only

Tina not having EXR is weird tho

my girl was shafted so hard

[hard wave]

Wait eve doesnt even have EX

[unkempt vortex]

Tina isn’t real

[versed flame]

i mean it took them until now to make ||sprint and field EXR||

[unkempt vortex]

No

Eve is like Helena and kali

[hard wave]

Yeah ik

[idle shard]

I did have a dream that DeNA added “lodge cake”
Which is cake for 3/4* units only

[unkempt vortex]

5 star jail

[hard wave]

I meant I forgot she didnt

[versed flame]

needed to stop eve from soloing too many LAs

[dark oar]

that's actually a fire idea. 😮

[idle shard]

1000 lodge stones per cake

[unkempt vortex]

why would you want to further dilute items

[versed flame]

curious if/when they'll do sprint & field 3/4 stars

it'll probably be a while but i think it's possible

[vestal leaf]

Remember to praise the best unit of the datamine, totally not BP clemont but worse

[idle shard]

remember to include spoiler tag

[vestal leaf]

She's free?

Why should I spoiler

[unkempt vortex]

You pull her from lodge

[pure arrow]

“BP Clemont but worse” right down to the Pokemon she uses lol

[vestal leaf]

Yep

Still cute tho

Might still solo a couple LAs

[idle shard]

||Colress is a better Lodge Jasmine||

[pure arrow]

tbh she has recuperation so soloing Latios at least is a given, maybe Bulu too?

[vestal leaf]

Recup 1 over syncro healing made me fucking chuckle to death

[sturdy flower]

we can't have her too broken

[pure arrow]

no, no, because BP Clemont was too generous

I actually have him EXed btw lol

[vestal leaf]

• endurance, check
• both defs+ ACC buffs, check
• heals on sync, check
• screech, check

I still need to see grid but

[upbeat lotus]

mini BP Clemont

[vestal leaf]

[versed flame]

first aid 2 instead of first aid 4 XD

[pure arrow]

[upbeat lotus]

[versed flame]

screech 30% mgr, not charging infliction

[pure arrow]

[versed flame]

[vestal leaf]

Man, that's so funny

[broken mulch]

Wait it’s really just BP Clemont?

[vestal leaf]

Yeah, but 1/2

Or 1/3 to be precise

[versed flame]

she can lower speed ig

against paralysed opponents

to deal with her 10% paralysis you can give her HE4 😅

[tawny cedar]

Jasmine being lodge is so epic

Ill get her to 1000 after blue and calem

[lost bobcat]

Usually 1 3 5 are the early big celebrations years (even if every year is a good year to celebrate)
Idk if it has to do by 4 being an unfortunate number in Japan/China
But sure gatchas have to calibrate on the new situations (post-covid, crisis and so)
