Hope there's heatran 
Ehhhh
Oh yea, Heatran
+datamine
Datamine usually happens at the end of each month between the 25th and 29th (PDT)
Check #datamines for raw dumps and #1012256199128915968 for recap and schedules.
Here is a history of previous datamine dates : https://tinyurl.com/pmexdataminehistory
Not really
27/10 both in '22 and '23
oh
And 25/10 is Monday
December datamine happened on 28th in the 2 recent years
So 27 is plausible
ah
28 at latest
I just hoping that it wont be strike, my strike candies stock is dire. Like DeNa keep releasing strike faves 
I still havent 3/5 ||fall iono|| yet
PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS PLS GIVE ME LUCAS
(I will get someone else 100% anyways)

Consider I used 3
in the last year
Geeta X1
Cynthiarc x2
I’ll give you Lucas if I could
Have maybe used that sync pair twice or three times
Or was it 4 from some high score event
Nice, only fall Iono left out of my 83 faves that not yet 3/5 soon it will be done 
Bingo thing again
I remembered getting vlucas from free ticket right after fire hs was done. DeNa, he aint helping 
it's a free limited so i don't complain whoever i get
Community/Compensation/Rally Reward 🌟
Start: 23-11-2024 06:00:00
End: 07-12-2024 06:00:00
?
I swear out of ALL the trainers in the eeveelutions banner
I don't have a SINGLE lucas alt
(And also elio but he's gen pool so-)
and Lucas is a GODAMN PF--
i expect its pokemon presents or something+ switch 2 announcement so there's gems
That was a theory I thought too
Like why there's compensation for a datamine that not yet happen
Usually apologems happen when there's bug or mistakes after the stuff in the datamine already started. So planning compensation for things that havent happen is kinda sus, or they release a datamine with well known bugs in it so it is skill issue 
Well it's not straight up a compensation
Even the name is a placeholder
It's a "Community/Compensation/Rally Reward"
Yep thats why i think it will be presents alongside Z-A trailer or something
what? free 3k gems?
If its 1k gems, it will be good 
I'm trying to look
But judging from the name
It's a placeholder
So the value is blank
They might push out a 50-90 Kb update the day before
Just dont be skip tickets and champion spirits 
Or right on reset
Especially since none of the gem counting people seem to have taken it into account
Well they learn from before this
There's a compensation before this and tlim put 1k gems in gem calc, turn out there's nothing
So the best way is to just wait
wait, is that Eeveelution portrait accounted in somewhere?
Probably a reward for photo missions
How many gems ?
+reading
it's not mentioned in the data from what I can find
Weird tho
As it's after
The Eevee day
I commented again because I'm not sure I should spoiler-post it 
I do remember a Title being one of the gift kind of reward before
Your wish shall be granted in 4 months time
That is alot of candies

…..I don’t know whether to laugh or to cry.
For a pre master/arc fair month, i think we need to cry

It's barely less than last year
I was expecting 24k tops
22k is within expectations
Well given the fact that we might be getting arc fairs next mth 💀
Tho i agree it is within expectations
I sincerely doubt it
I think June & Dec are NC months
Pretty much
At least the next ones
We'll see

It was only a one time thing??
Meanwhile asking us to spend 9 candies on one unit
I doubt it will be a one time thing really
Yeah i didnt see it being refreshed for this mth
Maybe they will do it every 2-3 mths who knwos
Yeah that's my call too
every 2 months seems plausible
We'll see
I do wonder if we will consistently get new DC pairs every month, or will tierno be the last since all regions are covered now
I'm expecting one per rival
Maybe they could slow down
Thats way too nice of dena lmao
And go one per 2-3 months
I also wonder if they are gonna be running ranked DC monthly to make up for the gem lost from normal DC clears
I mean, they now give a free variety for every pool
I feel like arcs aside
this is the third Ranked DC month in a row
I don't mind, it's an extra 900 gems
Honestly dont mind the ranked DC
I do remember the brief period of when Special CS was a monthly thing
The rewards are kinda easy to get
Since u need 800k points only
Yeah
Thought it was 1mil
After that its just sync orbs
It's still easier than 200k HSE imo
Anyways, at least now pokefairs get better rewards
Couldnt skip the anni one since they doubled rewards lol
We'll see how the coop revamp influences economy around half anni
damn. that's actually rough. yeah skip month.
22k is not great
We'll see if they change the masterfair scout pull rewards too
I hope they change it cos its been forever
For november its kinda normal
Is there a chance the dataminers missed the monthly prize scout? I doubt it but figured I'd ask
But for the current game economy its bad
I'm more pissed arcs get same as MFs
Mfs are finr
I actually dont know but i didnt see it in the schedule so i assume it is not happening
Rewards wise
Like
Besides this supercharger sync move shenanigans
Honestly the whole arc thing made people mad for the wrong reasons
I stand by the issue is candying them
Not 500 scout points
The candies are silly as hell
the 500 SP is silly too
The rewards for scout pulls is even sillier
500 would be fine if I could get 1, ONE candy at 10 multi
Not 2
Like paid banber
ONE
Pitying an arc and getting nothing of value for 10/15 multi is awful
And clearly the put awakening candies in asap, so it looks like arc candies aren't gonna be a thing
Arc candies are on paid banner
Yea that doesn't count
They definitely should be on free one too
14/15 multis were dead for me
At least one
Jesus Christ
To be fair
Idk what's worse
Getting nothing
Or getting a ton of spotlights
Because the latter really makes you feel like your balls are getting tickled by DeNa on purpose
Like
Getting 30 spotlights
Feel that
I go on and off but at least I'm slowly gaining gems
Any multi without the featured is always annoying sksksk
Im missing leon
I don't collect anyway
PFs idrc lol
I have 55% of all limiteds
Its too many to keep up
Is the game actually doing worse money wise or is it stable
Pretty stable
I doubt thus is EoS anytime soon, but it does feel more like they've eventered the who cares about new players mode
The gacha market in general took a huge blow in 2023
Poma lost a bit
But
Nothing severe
It's really minor in most months
I've seen this kind of phrase being thrown around for almost 4 years now
Revenue is quite stable imo
They are probably like we will just do wtv
Revenue is stable
Those that want to spend will spend
Lol around here it's game EoS
That is silly
And those that dont spend wont spend anw
?
No I'm saying to your response
To be fair their business model is far from predatory considering the IP power to hold money from any demographic
I think pmex is not near eos tho everyone says it in frustration
In a gacha market ofc
And around here = discord
There is still quite some runway left for pmex and new games are coming out so lol
Dena is about to get MONEY cuz of ||submas|| rn💀💀
Well they know japanese playerbase is willing to spend SO
Catering to them is the right way to go
And draining their paid gems before a big month is a strategic business decision anw
8TH ANNI EOS HAPPENING FRFR
So idrc if Anni ends up being always Cynthia
Their seasonals have been very unpredictable
If it means we get more units like sina & dexio, ball guy and klara
And niche seasonals
I guess its good for them since they have leeway to use the popular trainers in big months
Or some other random new mechanic
When they want to force ppl to pull
Yeah, they can rake in with the "guaranteed hit" on Anni
The new event reward system is awful tho i detest it
And then afford stuff like NY Wallace or Fall Shauntal
That kinda flop
But are still far from shitty pre 2023 seasonal tier
2021 pmex could never see a those trainers being seasonals it would be protags nonstop lmao
Can I have the screenshots of how many gems Can We get each day if that's available
Wow what happened in june
Less than a pity in the two Archie & Maxie months
I will do that tmr

Ok
"B-But the fantastic Twitter rally!"
Yup.
Thats with the 6k????
Probably
2021 was absolutely vile
Yeah it was
But the inflation in this game rn is crazy so tbh 24k nu-uh
I wish the average was more 26-27k
But tbfh
If you want the big meta units
You should be used to skipping everything else
Sadly when the rates are good, they can afford to keep currency low
I hit pity for almost all masterfair banners
1% as worst featured rate is a luxury lol
Arc fairs? Pitied all 3 💀
Yuck.
Anni was a disaster
I could've scouted the 2 arcs but I genuinely don't care about those reskins
I had more than twice the gems to pity both
Idk feel like the reskins could have been better but 🤷♂️
Yeah cynthia was fine
The other 2 literally had the arc aura attached and that was it
Steven got a long foulard
That's it
Lance was thrown in bleach

Cynthia got me with the cool as shit aureum crown
That shits gucci
OT but
Imagine them dropping new ones next mth, I would laugh in poor
Didnt they announce a rally today
Did they?
Is there a gem count for 2.50?
22100
Oh is that the random thing in the schedule
Ty
Yep
Community/Compensation/Rally Reward 🌟
Start: 23-11-2024 06:00:00
End: 07-12-2024 06:00:00
Could be nothing
There isnt any event on the 23rd
Could be big
Just irida dropping
That's a possible cope
Yea
After all that timeframe is also around the date they release games usually
I mean they might as well drop something since teraleak happened -_-
Yeah that too lol
If it's not a direct
Idk if we're getting anything til end of feb
We havent gotten anything for ZA since
Rofl
Awful
U know its gonna be glitchy as heck regardless lol
- I want less spoiler trailers
Hey
Legends Arceus wasn't glitchy at all
SV Is a mess
PLA was somehow great
But the legends team knows their shit
SV is... 😂
Pla fucking worked
As a video game
Sure it's not gorgeous
Because of shading of environment textures
But it's not fucking ugly
And it's stable
Its great tho
The playstyle maybe wasnt for everyone
Is unmatched
But i think it was a good game regardless
You can catch without battle
And stealth
Or make it action packed with the mudballs
There's so much freedom
I do want a PLZA teaser bc hi pls drop something to quench the thrist thanks
Well its already delayed as we know so 😂
Well not really?
They said 2025
Not when of 2025
Could be February
Could be November
Which sucks cos its an almost 2 yr wait so the game better be darn good
I'm a certified Alola hater
USUM was not it
That game wasn't meant to be on a DS
God it runs so bad
And the game itself is sluggish af
A gen 7 game with DP pacing
Is not it

Meanwhile gen 8 chad with the skip tutorial skip cutscenes options
The skip options sucked tho
And running at super stable framerate
They skipped like 3 total cutscenes
Yeah
Gen8 kinda had the same issues
It's still better than gen 7
They gave up halfway
I'll take the option
Over none
Especially in a game with 6536373667 cutscenes like gen 7
It's the opposite imo
They started from the end
Like on SV
They CLEARLY
Valid, I’m a big gen 7 defender but the pacing is awful in the beginning
Designed the game from a concept
In sv they clearly started designing from the crater trip with friends
And the professor twist
But couldn't really build up the rivals on their own
Plus the scale was extreme
So the rest was shipped with barely any development
When i saw 3 rivals for SV, the first thing that came to mind was
Oh dena is gonna have fun with these 3
Scaling is always an issue with pokemon games but oh well
In Swsh they clearly had a whole idea around rose and the eternatus fight
But when schedule got too tight they condensed half the plot in a cutscene, cut the rest and said "the game doesn't need to be about the plot until the last minute"
Which ended up being actually enjoyable to me
But it's a taste situation
I really like when a game can just let me enjoy a silly and simple plot of rivals going through the gym challenge
With a rose twist... if they actually had the time to explain him as a character
So in the end he passes like an idiot
But hey, at least I liked the scale of swsh and the voyage
Plus the eternatus fight is peak
And the crazy ass graphic issues but i mean 🤷♂️
Crazy?
The game runs super smooth in any area but one
MY switch went crazy
The vanilla wild area
But maybe it was my switch 😂
On release yea
But Swsh did actually receive patches
By February the game performance was actually fixed
Completely
I used to get stutters often
@sweet tide how much gems do you think i can get from now until|| fall shauntal dips?||
On day one
Never again after first patch
Unlike SV, that still is unplayable in most areas
That's a week of gems so probably 6k at best?
Maybe 1-1.5k more
When does she leave
6/11
You're definitely getting 2.5k in next week
Imo
Roughly 5k
Hum thanks
Exactly
Okay. Thanks.
SS brothers + og brothers event 2.5k
remainder of 2.5k from dailies and what have u not
What we are going to get 6K from twitter rally and that not count in the 22k gems 😱
No, we were talking about june 2021
When was the last 3k RT rally even
Iono
Anni
But we have 3000 on 23/11 right ?
Anni had a rally? Lol
No
Oh right la creatura event
Not guaranteed
So yeah
Gifts aside
Iono I think
But to be fair we also had refer a pal
Right. Gift =! Twitterrally
Anyway
Too early for datamine anw
Definitely a weird date
Oh mine is gonna be on 27 huh
Guys I have a problem
Prob the first pair is on friday 29
Or 30th
Ye
Until now I was 17 and now I am 18, so I could buy more than 8000 gems per month but I Can't and I don't understand why. I am sure that I enter the right birthdate but If I send a question to Dena support Can they change my birthdate to the correct ?
U gotta send them an email for it, they might ask u for proof though.
What is Dena s'mail ?
Ugh so still up to 30 days to next datamine? Ugh
@dark oar
Hold on
How many gems are until th 25th of november? Like 20k?
The info will be shared tomorrow seemingly.
Ok
Shiro already has a gem count on the subreddit
can’t forget the reused sync moves
those 3 things (counting 5/5) made them undesirable
Hoping they only come for anni and half anni
if we get that next month might not be able to pull it through
Save your gems
Cool there's ranked DC next month, so i can 3/5 DC Tierno 
Where can i find daily gem breakdown?
Gem count being 22k is fine by me
but not fine for a certain friend of mine who wants SS submas and OG submas😭😭
i need to die
hugs
I wish you luck Melissa
wanting money is not enough now, i need to perish 
don't do that
SS submas will rerun soon
Atleast they ain't MFs
And they rerun new PFs a bit early (kinda? Kinda not??)
so dw❗❗
Plus you have 22k
You might get one of them!
if they were gonna add them, i didn’t want them to be added now 😔 i’m still financially recovering from anni
And you think I'm not worried about anything??
IM WORRIED ON HOW I WILL ||BEAT THE SS SUBMAS EXTREME BATTLES TO GET THE TITLES,I NEVER WIN EXTREME BATTLES HELP||
there’s ||extreme battles???||
Y u p
this image said it all

Guys I'm doomed
I never ||beat extreme battles,i always get one shotted and I NEVER DONE ANYTHING YET,so.....y e a h||
There are people who are willing to guide you, don't worry too much

man
The EBE should be meant for Submas pairs, I think you're gonna have easy time since you're gonna pull for them 
AHAHAHAHAHHAHHAAHHAAH
and I have EX saved for them
Yet
not enough for EXR smh-
So
hehe

pats
its ok,I know how it feels
Pog i probably will EX shauntal, she's my only unova ghost
Do they rerun adaman EBE? I remembered hating it
Time to do rally 
I haven't do rally yet 
Maybe i will wait for shop reset on Friday
I can add 1 more exr for rally run
I suck at rally
I do only normal mode😭😭

rally sucks anyways, who needs it
Like look at this💀💀
I cried at myself for this EMBARRASSING amount of medals-
I told you i suck
That's good

Better normal mode than not attempting at all, you will at least get 300 weekly gems
actually got 800 medals once--
idk how I did it but I did
Lucky area probably
Rally is easy when you know how to tackle the gimmicks, same as EBEs
Or any other game mode
Your playstyle is one-of-a-kind.
Be proud of it.
nope
Thank you 
Then probably you used more of the roles required in that run

We can always guide you over at #1009557516369281075
its either they're pulling resources for vietnam branch, for pocket TCG....
wait why
vietnam laws i believe.
what changed
#poma-lounge is a better place for this discussion,
Will i be able to get ||irida||...? I have 7k gems rn...
(Also if response pls ping, ill go to sleep for now)
If you save throughout the november, and plus the gems on Dec would be sufficient
December and January usually is a fat month for gems
October is notoriously dry historically largely because the gems are frontloaded and anniversary is sucking the remnants of its last breath for people desperately trying to hit that pity
I will say that be mindful being too confident in January and feb since half anni comes roaring up fast
If the new arc fairs don’t drop in December they’re guaranteed to drop in half anni
Im ready
will able to form 4 pities with November gems. Kinda pumped especially after seeing ||heatran|| in datamine files

@crisp grotto
15 support coins POG
11 strike, so i can only 3/5 my ||falliono|| in December
Thankies for the tally
If the December faves don't use strike candy 
21 Nov, wow
Oki, ty!

Those are the name of the events
LGISOW is Elaine's event for example
1,5,9,13,17,21, 25....7 days of EBE subway 
I guess i will EX my shauntal, he is the only ghost unova i got
N can carry electric unova
15 support candies coins? cool 😮
EOS IS REALLLLLLLLL!!!!
NOV 27 DATAMINE
i had to abbreviate the event names otherwise the screenshots would look stretched out
every 4 days starting from 1st
yeah cos of kalos cs
the resoures this month is pretty good
rip kalos cs? yikes
Hope its easy 
Still mad about low gold candy coin
Faster than before, it used to take a year. Thanks DeNa for introducing new contents that give yellow coins 
Also i think it doesn't count lodge shauna so there's extra 1 yellow coin for people that have her
Guess we’re stuck at 3 3/5 for arc pairs every 2 years
Arc pairs don't need that many candies anyway
it rarely counts for the Lodge pair, even if it's one people get for free
Thats why im saving my recently formed yellow candy, although i still havent got any arc fave yet but if one appears, it will be hard to wait for 8 months to 3/5 
Seems I'll have 42k+ by the end of November
Im massively doomed💀💀
But......those titles.....I NEED THEM
It should definitely not be hard to beat those EBEs with the units made for them
That Fan Title will change soon seemingly
Time to aim for Super Fan title.

those we know if having in a pull, a character who's already 5/5, give us a candy for the superawakening ?
Doesn't seem like it
hahah shameful
Eh, not really
No reason to make an extremely superfluous but dedication based upgrade be easily achievable
Yeah actually we dont know how to have superawaken candies, but if it’s only by pull, or like the actual candies, where it take so long for one
We are not ready for 5 more
You get 2 from scouting on pokefair banners
Yeah i’ve seen this, but it’s quite huge spending like 30k diamonds to have 2 candies
It’s not Even enough to have the superawaken skill
You're also getting copies of the character theoretically
And 2 levels are still a lot in terms of bonuses
People underestimate how much a 1.1x stat increase can do
Also, don't forget the 12 coins
Yeah I can understand that point of view
But you need to pull on a duo, he must me good or you must want it, then you need to spend 30k gems and then if you re lucky, need to have at least one time the duo, at best 3/5 or Even more
Lot’s of conditions
And you’re right, 1,1 multiplier is very good, need to have what it need to upgrade…
Duos won't likely get the gifts
It's a debut thing most likely
Exactly because pokefairs were getting heavily skipped in favour of selects or triple reruns
Just treat superawakening as complimentary, you got 2 of em if you had to pity a pokefair banner 
I checked out of my 83 faves, 24 are pokefairs
so im totally dont want to be maxing that
At least im not actively making most of my faves 5/5, those that i currently have are the result from free 100 pulls or dupes during select scout multi. I only do 5/5 for zone extension
Not really the channel to ask, we discourage pulling here lol
Someone else asked if they should pull some units
ah
Sorry bout that lol
nw not your fault
Huh 22k, not bad
Not bad among Novembers
22k in a arc fair context is not a good amount
I’m uninstalling if we’re getting under 22k twice in a row
The most November ever has was 26K if I recall correctly, and that was including a 3K gem rally
december and january gives a lot of gems iirc so.... 😮
we thought annis gave us a lot of gems too but alas 💔
Is it true this app used to give 30k gems per month in the past?
I heard veterans say... Also literally everyone venting about giving them giving us little gems.
Got, 22k gems
Why would they increase gem income just because of arcs haha
Now that’s a Hail Mary
True, its like they don't force us to pull them, like if people want arc save more by skipping other units.
I already plenty happy if they make blissful bonanza and legendary arena monthly missions permanent back 
Like its a norm for so many years, and why you have to remove it DeNa 
will be pulling this month, but hey almost six (non-arc) pities is not bad at all. haven't even done the new event's gems yet
now let's hope i don't get shafted this month is stacked for me
||i would accept it... but three pities would really really hurt||
Is time we rub ingo big forehead for good luck
DeNa doesn't really take user opinions into account when planning economy
We got 70k this anni
No
The average was 30k for 2022 for a logistic and prevision error by DeNas part, but the average was much much lower before then
We basic got a fantastic year in 2022 for a multitude of reasons, but it's an exception, not the rule
THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD LUCK
How long term we talking
if i need to pity irida, i'll need 36.6; depending on how long it takes for nc blue to cycle in after that, i need to get to ~74k
currently, scouts are:
- sygna ingo w/ sprint coin
- fall shauntal w/ tech coin
- fall iono w/ strike coin
- zerena w/ 2 5* powerups
none of those are coins i need, and i got the 3x coins from zerena already
Why'd you spend gems for coins
||did you get her?||
so 3k for coins and a chance at the unit was worthwhile, but after that less so
no lmao
Then that's 3k lost in the drain
yeah
Kinda of a waste
Anyway, you definitely should consider the likelihood of blue running from late Dec to late jan
yeah, thats what im thinking
We'll get 65-70k between now and end of Jan
hence why im trying to math out if its possible for me to get to 74k in time
So you can definitely get both even if you get unlucky
But you'll have to avoid scouting ANYTHING else
if i can squeeze out some ub clears thats additional g
Even if you did
im more just trying to map out how tight it would be
yeah, knowing irida is coming up (i would love to get adaman too, but i will probably only pull on him 1x if i dont have to pity for irida/can save up enough to be safe for blue) is very helpful in that regard
if she wasnt rerunning, while yes nc red would be rerunning with blue likelier than not, i would probably be considering fall shauntal for just. Anything in ice
or sina i guess
... wait, is it possible?
even if i clear everything apart from the nemona ub, that only gives me 21900 for next month
if december* is the same, that would be 60k. not 74
even if i cleared all 12 ubs (11 + nemona) for an additional 3600 + 300 for 1500 interactions + 100 for 2 more lodge units maxed, its not gonna be possible to hit 74k
NC blue ends at end of Jan
If he reruns in December
Which means 3 months from now
Not 2
Man I really want to pull emmet
I can't because I really want [datamined unit] but
its VERY tempting
I'm at 51k gems for context
don’t forget to spoiler
Still deciding if I’ll pull on her or not
24k gems in my pocket rn. the anni aftermath is still hitting
I got 126k gems currently, having only 1 fave that i need to pull within 3 months pays off 
Finally made it to the 9k gems milestone!!!
Might as well grab the orb bundle and then wait for fair select and select ||ingo||
remind me have any sprint/field PF pairs been available in a select?
There's some when they did select based on regions before, can get rei, akari and volo
Oh right the region based select, that was for anni right?
Also I just realized sprint has 7 PFs total, Field only has 4 
Most of field gacha pairs are seasonals
Well DC pairs already cover it if people want f2p sprint or field pairs and are reluctant to pull any non faves for rally
I grabbed DC tierno
and straight 2/5 him
I failed but I managed to make a blood oath that this would be the only time I would give up and do it
i didn't realise the costume battle is 300*5 gems
pretty impressive
good thing I didn't forget to do it XD
so reminder to everyone else who is lax about doing events straight away
Don’t forget to do Monthly and Rally Exchanges everyone! Lots of valuable items there 
Had to grab a couple of sync orbs in rally shop, hope it is still enough for December cake coin vouchers buyout 
Oh right! With the Eevee egg event coming soon, it's a great idea to get these. Those eggmons are really good in terms of what they can do.
me who cant even do the first stage
The pain is real 
I keep doing a single spin on zerena banner everyday
I'm wasting gems like this 😭
And i can't control it
I got two five stars from that and I keep thinking ima get more
never do single spins
it’s not worth it
just do multis at least
Where you can get an extra free spin
But the ideal would be to save till pity
Yea ik I'm tryna save for the adaman banner but I keep impulsively doing it
Hmm
If this works as motivation for you
remember you’re more likely to not get it than to get it
so save till you’re guaranteed to get it
it’s really not that hard once you understand the odds
you’re more likely to have 10 kids than to get it from a multi
also recommend muting the #gacha-and-flex channel if you haven’t already, it stops tempting you from doing impulsive pulls for the most part
Or remove it altogether and leave it on the #salt-channel
oh that too, made me realize i never removed it from my channels
hopefully that’ll help me more lol
Spoiler dude
Stop booting the game
And stop going to the scout screen after doing the daily scout
either that or dont do the daily scout
you arent getting a mf buddy
you're better off winning the lottery
I only got 1 up until now
big difference between 12% 5 star rate and 1% masterfair rate
I have yet to get even a 4* lol
The only daily scout that is good is mix, because you keep the pity points. Oh i guess the free daily scout is good as well, because its free
Spoiler??
I wasn't expecting zerena I was just expecting random 5*
put spoilers on names here if you’re mentioning about pulling them
Ok
||I've been having this "urge" to pull on the Double SubMas banner so I can try to get OG Ingo.
I know it'd be better to save because December traditionally has new Master Fairs & returning Fairs from the previous year's Anniversary, but this "urge" is telling me to complete the duo.||
Spoiler
also don’t
Unless he is an absolute fav it’s not worth it
Keep in mind his odds are 1.5%, only slightly above mf rates
If you got paid gems, just grab them via select later
And he might be featured in free selects too
Yeah old PFs keep getting more odds of being free, being in selects or getting some priority accessible banner (like LG/HSE)
So there's no reason to scout them unless you can fully take advantage of the whole split rate up
Example: if you had 1/5 gloralt, no ss Hilbert, no Rei, last month's banner was crazy
But old submas duo is not really valuable at all if you have one of the two already at any ML
My ||Emmet|| is still lonely for years
. Unless they do their lodge, i wont get the other
and frequently checking on the #salt-channel could help as well
I usually posted in gacha flex, but does not linger in it to avoid temptation 
I find checking neither to be better
salt channel sometimes actually makes me mad because it's mostly people doing stupid things to get to that situation
ive officially made it to 15k gems...
Congrats 
thanks!
Gem income of sept-oct is missing from pinned btw
Congrats...
Now make it up to 30k 
Finally crossed the 150k mark again
should have 167 till the end of the month
anni recovery going smooth up until now
need money
Thats the goal 🫡 (unfortunately ||irida|| may consume gems if i dont get 30k before her release)
I'm at 23,385 gems now
Remember to wait till the next datamine
in case you’re planning on scouting
Okidoki then ill wait, hope the banner lasts long enough (was just really considering ||Irida|| because that'd help my ||3/5 NC Red me thinks||
At least there's still 16090 Gems left in the month to stock up on.
And at least I still have ||55,980 Gems||.
Hope this is enough for December faves
||heatran|| teaser really makes me worried
Can't reach 236k before ||eri comes out sadly, hopefully I don't need to spark her||
Kinda tough if you collect team star members, maybe they will release one every month
Although i do wonder if they will continue with more teachers instead after done with team star
I don't thankfully
ngl i wanna quit the game
already skipping the rally cos its pain in the arse to keep changing teams
The only thing that keep me strong for rally is the cake coins, also to make it less stressful,
- i put a support in each stage's team eventhough there's no support role bonus
- only do 2 stages a day over a course of 5 days to clear rally
- buy 5 more of the free boosts they gave us and apple cup
Still gives me 6.5 - 6.8k medals a week even if there's no lucky stage
5 more of the free boost?
Yep like if it gives me poison boost, i buy 5 more of that poison boosts
And apple cup for final stage, so total expenses are 1000
why
To make the run less stressful for me
So that i can beat enemies fairly easier
Than those that only spend a little
I rather have less stressful run, than being stressed out and then hate the game
ik, but how likely is it that u will use something like poison boost or a theme boost
unfortunately for me i can only do the first 3 hard stages and then im forced to do easy 😢
The boost that they give you for free at start will always be available at the shop
Also the boost stacks, thats why i bought additional 5 more of the same boost
i mean like how likely are u to use it
like what if u dont even end up using poison types in this example
or u dont have good enough poison types
Just put 1 poison unit for each stage, even only 1 already active the boost
wait its not just poison dmg?
If dont have much unit, just use the same unit for bunch of stages
it applies to all?
Yep the stat boosts activates for all as long as you put at least 1 poison unit
wow
Well see your luck, like this week i got kalos boost, so i bought 5 more kalos boosts and put at least 1 kalos unit for every fight
it boosts all stats by 100%?
I think so, i forgot how much it inscrease. But it stacks, if you got total of 6 boosts like me, it will be 6 times boost
Thats how i can clear the very hard stage
From stage 1 to 10, well 10, i use a kalos unit plus apple cup 
Rally is the only recurring mode that doesn't absolutely suck
For me
I get 10-11k every week with barely over 1 hour of time investment per week AT WORST
Yeah theme buffs are +100% each
Are the easiest splashable buff
But some themes suck
Also most stages are beatable with no buffs or with just the +100% from start
well as a new player i can only do the first 3 hard stages then only easy
Im old player but i dont want to do much thinking or feel stress so i grab the boosts i want to make it easier 
Well as long as i can buyout the cake coins in the first day of every month, its already nice
Exactly
Sometimes I get less than 8k and that’s fine
No need to get 9k+ every time
I only grab the
and coins anyways
Yep its better to make it less stressful than outright not doing it because it being too hard. Another about rally that is nice is that you can setup yourself on whether you want to make it harder for more rewards or easier for less. Just like csmm with parameters stuff
hmm
do u guys think i can get the roll cake vouchers if i have 2 matching roles and do the hard stages?
As long as you score enough points to meet monthly requirements, you should be fine
You can find the numbers in #1009564564821639379 pins
Made it to 23k gems. Should be enough left in the month to get a pity
Yes, okay I just checked. Awesome
|| I semi-calculated around 11K+ Gems before Elaine & Penny banner, hopefully ill get lucky and get at least Elaine, Penny would be nice too 🙏 temptation is getting to me but I will endure||
Gem counts are so bad now that I don't even entertain good double banners. Even a triple would need to have 3 good units I have 0 or 1 copy of to contemplate
"gem counts are so bad now"
We get less than 1k less per month
Compared to last year
On average
2024 with an average December will have given players around 320-25k gems in a year
2023 gave 335k circa
Slowly draining us to launch gems
Need to wait for December datamine to see how much DeNa wanted to drain my gems for this year 
So far 8 faves that require gems for this year
So if everything need pity and i can cover a bit with paid gems, that will cost me 291,200 gems
I guessed enough with the yearly average gems of 320k gems
Oh this part is from 36600 pity becomes 36400, because 1 paid discount and 1 single pull
Launch gems?
So 13k per month?
That'll have to be around Anni 12 or so
Spoiler my man
I wouldn’t ask about pulling questions here tbh
||got lucky so now I can get to 240-45k by end of the month wooo||
Hey guys
Is there anyone famous for their story here?
Like, saving or spending story?
Maybe not
Chest
He saved 1 million free gems
There's also another person named Necro, that try to chase Chest record with 500k+ gems
i dont think chest is playing as often anymore
For spending story, there's people that only pulls bird pairs here and i once saw another person that pulls only canine pairs
Thats kinda unique
That’s news
he probably holds the record in the entire game so I’d be a shame if someone outside the server claimed it
(for free gems)
I collect legendary, mythical, UB, paradox but i think its not that unique because pretty sure there're people out there that have the same units if they chase meta and can afford it. As usually these pairs have good kits
anni Steven is happy to be in that group
I think lot of people did pulled him back then, because the meta aint have clear trends yet. But for recent pairs, people already start to filter it because there's bunch of alternatives. Just like people skipping ||ssnemona because they got ssgladion, or skipping falliono because they got smgardenia|| many options lately so me collecting my faves are good back, because meta chasers chasing other pairs 
Oh right also them saving for arc suits
you didn’t pull for arc suits?
that easy huh
Yep
no character faves?
No
I think you just like Pokémon without the masters part
Yep, because my experience in playing the game is catching pokemons. Not peoples.
Thats good, i will have 140k gems for December stuff
Coping for heatran and iron bundle
Iron bundle?
Yep the paradox delibird
what’s the correlation between them though
It looks fitting for Christmas
ah
