pop an incense

[steel parcel]

@primal gyro usually it says it fled, but it hasn’t actually

[lusty spoke]

you still have tim

[steel parcel]

if it’s not too far, i’d definitely try to go for it!

[primal gyro]

It's literally as far as it can be so I'm not gonna bother lol

[lucid frigate]

[steel parcel]

i was about to battle this enemy gym but i couldn’t do it. i simp for pink mons

[lusty spoke]

id be running or on my bike if i even saw a hint

[lucid frigate]

Does garchomp even spawn in the wild

[primal gyro]

Practically never. It was like seeing a ghost

[lusty spoke]

i assume everything that isnt a legend can spawn in the wild i got an tryanitar and ludicolo less than 0.5km apart from each other

[twilit sapphire]

yeah

some mons stopped spawning because of this new dumb spawn hemisphere thing tho

like starters

the first starters

[lusty spoke]

yeh tbh that bugs me cause i would and i quote walk 500 miles for a gara

maybe like 100 for a mamoswine but thats a different story

[vital badger]

yeah I have seen any squirtle charmander or

[lusty spoke]

i saw them before and during kanto and then they vanished

[twilit sapphire]

actually I think today is nest rotation day

[vital badger]

same

I've been getting sinoh and johto spawns alot

as well as other starters

[twilit sapphire]

there are more variety in spawns yeh

[lusty spoke]

what does that mean aimee

[primal gyro]

Maybe I'd have a chance if I stole someone's bike but as rare as dragon spawns are... not quite ready to go to jail for rare spawns yet

[lusty spoke]

these crpytic words

[twilit sapphire]

nest rotation?

[lusty spoke]

aye

also its not stealing if its returned with its tyres pumped up

[vital badger]

froakie, fenniken, chikorita, totodoe, chimchar, turning and tepig

[twilit sapphire]

every 2 wednesdays, all worldwide mons change

uh

places like big parks and stuff are usually nest

that means, a single pokemon species appears a lot

[lusty spoke]

so wait can dragon spawns move 👀

[twilit sapphire]

in that specific place

nope

Dragons can't nest

[primal gyro]

My local area is usually barren, so the garchomp was doubly a shock

[twilit sapphire]

at the start of the game, Dratini used to nest but was yeeted

Pokemons like dragons, fossils and some other rare mons like snorlax can't nest

[lusty spoke]

so any idea when the hemisphere mons will be removed and renewed

[vital badger]

doctor if u wana fix my brothers bike u can have it mum wants to throw it away as he has jsut letting rot XD

[lusty spoke]

i have 3 bikes for tactical purposes of all around the clock pokemon hunting

[twilit sapphire]

but nests are usually mons that are uh, kinda common, like starters even tho they aren't around that much (except Kalos starters)

there are some nice nests also called macro nests since the nest is so huge, we have a park of like 8km area full of only one single spawn i think it was chinchou this week

[primal gyro]

I tried a couple of things and I found that the best strategy for me to get dragon spawns is to stake out one particular area. It's a park that's currently a totodile nest, and it's close to a train station, 3 churches, and a museum.

[twilit sapphire]

but nest rotations aren't locked to every 2 weeks, since rotations are forced when new event comes in so they tend to change a lot

[primal gyro]

Just need 5 more and I'm done with my 30

[vital badger]

I want a motorbike to get around smh

[twilit sapphire]

Here are the pokemon species that can nest now with this new seasons hemisphere thingie

Only for North Hemisphere

[lusty spoke]

swinubbb my baby

[twilit sapphire]

fuck you venonat

Silph doesn't have enough info for South Hemi tho, but these are reports from the research of North

[primal gyro]

I last played seriously in 2016, and let me say, nests are boring af these days.

[lusty spoke]

in a disord call just clicked on wooper Its only a damn shiny

[twilit sapphire]

I lived to see Dratini and Snorlax nest so

[vital badger]

niceee

[lucid frigate]

I used to have a hitmonlee nest nearby in 2016 lol

[primal gyro]

swinub is def like the best rn imo

Ice types are a bit of a struggle atm without modules

[lusty spoke]

i love him cause mammoth

[twilit sapphire]

Mamo is such a great ice type

fast charger of it's CD attack is so good

[lusty spoke]

my entire sinnoh team for the remakes is gonna be ground something

[lucid frigate]

I would totally love a joltik nest for both regular and xl candies

[twilit sapphire]

Also, it seems that Ferroseed is nesting in South Hemis

https://thesilphroad.com/atlas

also i like reporting nests in my city so

community nest reporting

[primal gyro]

I regret not catching more poochyena last week

Need 15 more dark types and all I see are sneasel raids

[lusty spoke]

sneasles are dark types

[vital badger]

I'm.sick of.seeing joltik

[lusty spoke]

arent they

[vital badger]

yeah

[primal gyro]

they are but blowing remote raid passes on sneasel isn't ideal... especially when you need to grind to level 40

[twilit sapphire]

I wish hatched mons counted for this

[vital badger]

ouch

[primal gyro]

I hatched a gible yesterday.... didn't count

[vital badger]

I may go crawl into bed

[twilit sapphire]

[primal gyro]

Seems like dark types besides sneasel raids are just gone

do rocket grunts have any?

[radiant vigil]

yes, houndour! it's been helpful

i expected ice and dragon to be troublesome, but not dark types lol. to think that last month i was casually doing 'catch 15 dark type' field research looool

otherwise i get the odd poochyena spawn once or twice a day, they're around but not super common

[primal gyro]

...last week I passed by a poochyena nest. I only stayed for 15 because the weather was rainy and awful.

poochy seems to be gone now tho

[twilit sapphire]

funny enough, rocket grunt task gives nuzleaf also

[primal gyro]

[vital badger]

good night and sweet dreams everyone

[twilit sapphire]

g nighty

[lusty spoke]

night night

[vital badger]

[primal gyro]

looks like I gotta look up how to abuse rocket quests then

[radiant vigil]

nightt

the balloons appear 4x daily if you don't want to leave the house much

[twilit sapphire]

reminder just in future case

except the part of having Jessie and James

[radiant vigil]

Has anyone noticed this? 😮

[primal gyro]

yep someone mentioned it before

[radiant vigil]

that's unexpectedly nice of them lol

[primal gyro]

Well it was a paid ticket that was completely RNG based... I'd be careful too if I were them about screwing their customers

[lusty spoke]

^

[radiant vigil]

if only they were this nice with the kanto makeup event -_- i want spawns not items i already have loads of

niantic also don't have a great track history with paying customers 😂

[twilit sapphire]

it's actually pretty common

they usually adapt task that you can only finish with limited time stuff for more common stuff

happens always with the GO Fest tasks

[radiant vigil]

ahhh i have probably never noticed because i've never done go fest before 😂

[primal gyro]

...oh my. I just did a check of my maps

[twilit sapphire]

understandable, I've only done it once but read a lot about those

oh wait nest rotation happened just now here

time to check nests

[primal gyro]

There's a swinub nest in the neighborhood to the west

[twilit sapphire]

[primal gyro]

Oh my, there's MANY nests

Looks like 3 or 4 swinub nests. Thank god it's in the park and not the cemetary right next to it... feels very disrespectful to step over graves for imaginary pokemon

[radiant vigil]

😮 i should check my local nest...probs won't luck out with an ice type though haha

[twilit sapphire]

Nests usually are visually like this

like, what it makes it pretty obvious

but there are a few types of nests

[radiant vigil]

yeah im just not close enough stop wise to tell atm

diluted by other stops rn

[lusty spoke]

God I'd kill.for a swinub nest

[radiant vigil]

swinubs are great, gotta grow the mamo army

[mild charm]

Anyone on for a raid?

[karmic raven]

Depends on the raid for me

[mild charm]

Landoooooo

Got 7 min left

[atomic steeple]

Have spots for lando if anyone needs it or wants to help

[worldly roost]

Thanks! I somehow unintentionally attempted transferring four that aren’t in the game. Just thought I was missing a step 🤦‍♂️

[crisp relic]

samarink has given 1 'General Rep' to Classic Christian.

[lusty spoke]

How do yall get excellent curveball throws

I have made 1 I need to make 2 modrn

[radiant vigil]

there's a trick i use to do 3 excellent in a row 😏

if you turn off your internet before you throw and miss, you can restart your game without losing the streak

if the throw does go excellent, just turn the internet back on

[lusty spoke]

Its less of a streak and more how do I do it

I wait for the circle to get smaller but every time it kinds just hits the outer rim.

[radiant vigil]

it really depends on the mon

there are some that i find super easy and can usually do if i just wait for the circle to go smaller, and others that are just a pain and i never try it on

it might be good to figure out which mons are easier for you to do it on, then farm it as much as you can

the position on the screen for excellent throws differs per mon, so what could be missing on one mon hits excellent on another 😂

[lusty spoke]

That hurts

[radiant vigil]

attempting an excellent throw on a zubat hurts

[twilit sapphire]

attempting to catch a zubat hurts in general

[radiant vigil]

yup 😔 usually i just shiny check and flee because it's not worth the effort...

[atomic steeple]

@lusty spoke today I watched a video of a go YouTuber grinding lvl 50 in one day, one of the tasks is 999 excellent throws... which they did... in one day...

I cannot comprehend

Also question on super rocket radar

Is the intereggsting shadow mon guaranteed mewtwo and can I stack the super radars?

[twilit sapphire]

no

Mewtwo was only available for before this new rocket

you'll get articuno yes or yes

you had to finish your intereggsting research before past saturday to actually get Mewtwo

[radiant vigil]

one of the hardcore players down here pulled an all nighter to do the 999 throws...he did it in a few hours and finished at like 3am 😱 cray

[charred rapids]

Was that FleeceKing what a champ.

[radiant vigil]

yeah was watching parts of his stream, cool guy

and his mum is also hilarious and super supportive

[atomic steeple]

That's wild lol, I have 15 levels to be not trash at excellent throws

@twilit sapphire so do I leave it active for a month or how do I not activate it? I heard shadow arti isnt great so I'd rather bank it for a better shadow legend

[radiant vigil]

it's ok, i'm still trash at them and i had to get past 50 excellent throws for L45 haha

you can kind of just ignore giovanni, he's not that common anyway (90% of the time they're a decoy)

[pallid slate]

nests arent always that good, vissually

they have something like a 1/3rd chance to produce the nesting spawn at any given spawnpoint (i think that was the number)

so the more spawnpoints the better the nest feels for producing the species

but you can have a single spawnpoint nest

[twilit sapphire]

not always visually obvious, since you can, yes, get a single spawn nest

[pallid slate]

thats why its nice to keep track of the really good nests

[radiant vigil]

yeah i didn't figure out what my nest was spawning yet, was just weather boosted stuff popping XD

[twilit sapphire]

you can have a single specie mon spawn every 15 mins

[pallid slate]

could be the nest is popping something weather boosted

[twilit sapphire]

and it counts as a nest

[pallid slate]

i mean it looks like wurmple nests right now, but how would you know?

you cant (get a single 15 minute spawn)

because spawns are either every other half hour

or whole hour

[twilit sapphire]

yeah it can be weather boosted if the species happen to nest and weather is boost

[pallid slate]

so you cant a 15 minute spawn from a single spawn point

i mean you could if you had 4 spawnpoints

kinda wish all spawnpoints where whole hour spawns

[radiant vigil]

yeah, when it was something like scyther it was super obvious because scyther isn't a common spawn, but wooper? can't tell for sure 😂

[pallid slate]

i had this one not too far away

i mean wurmple were everywhere

but that's excessive

[radiant vigil]

oh that's a nice map, ours doesn't have pictures lol

[pallid slate]

early maps used pictures from official sources and got pulled down by copyright sorts of orders

but theres a 3rd party set that many use

while others skirt it by posting pins with names or numbers instead

this is a good map though. makes me wonder what it costs to upkeep

[radiant vigil]

yeah mine is name + number, i know people can add images via some sort of script but ceebs lol

have gone through several rounds of maps being up, pulled down etc XD

[pallid slate]

i ran a small one for a while, just covered the university campus i lived on

but it produced plenty of larvitar, a perfect ditto, and soem unown

so that was nice

[radiant vigil]

reminds me of how i found my first dragonite, running madly to beat the despawn

[pallid slate]

I found one at randomly early off in the game. Was level 1.

Still have it

[radiant vigil]

That's the best sort of L1 to keep

[lusty spoke]

Whoever designed excellent curveball challenges i wish you nothing but a terrible day

[vital badger]

good morning everyone

[lusty spoke]

Morning

[vital badger]

hows u?

[paper reef]

So normally I try to make super flashy or cool / cute outfits but this time I took a breath, sat back, and went for normal.

How do I look?

[paper reef]

Also, good morning. I need to sleep still.

[vital badger]

that's cute

[winter fox]

Does anyone have a Persian they could trade me for my dex? Just any Persian. I kinda had a bad experience with someone last time.

[untold breach]

You can only trade with people locally

[vital badger]

I always wear what I'd actually wear, like if it was safe to runa ound the streets bare foot I would I do in my own garden, parks that are safe and beaches n stuff

[winter fox]

Oh, thought you can trade over distances

[vital badger]

only x amount of miles it's been shortened to normal distance again

[winter fox]

Ah, okay.

Welp

[vital badger]

ither you getmlicky here and someone.lives close to you or you look for a fb or discord group bases in your town or city

get lucky

[winter fox]

Yeah. So many rules, haha

[vital badger]

hows u? n hope you get good sleep

[winter fox]

Thank for telling me tho

[vital badger]

I'm in England if that helps

[winter fox]

Nah, sadly too far. Thank you tho

[vital badger]

np

[paper reef]

I was about to try and get some sleep since my cat came up to me to cuddle and he absolutely hates when I stay on the phone when he wants attention. He’ll meow, headbutt me, and slap his tail really aggressively to tell me to put my phone down and go to sleep lol. He jumped down to drink some water though.

[paper reef]

I’m in California if that helps

[vital badger]

aww that's cute

[winter fox]

Nah, New Jersey for me.

[paper reef]

Ah, sorry then. Good luck though

[vital badger]

my brothers cat will try to knock the phone from my hand, my cat will just lay on soad hand and phone

[untold breach]

Damn if only I was still in NJ

[paper reef]

Definitely check out some Facebook groups or local groups if you can

He’ll head butt my hand hoping my phone falls out

[winter fox]

I truly just wanna complete the kanto dex to get closer to that shiny mew haha

[untold breach]

Are you central, north or south?

[paper reef]

I’ll usually drop it and give him attention

[vital badger]

I love cuddling the cats as I go to sleep, warm.fluffy hot water.bottles that never go cold lol

[untold breach]

also i will fight anyone who says Central NJ doesn't exist

[winter fox]

Pfff

Ah, I live on the east coast so-

[paper reef]

I would love to hold and squeeze Tiger all night long and fall asleep cuddling, but the longest he’ll let me do is about 15 mins and he’ll either meow to be let out or if I’m knocked put enough he’ll slip out quietly

[vital badger]

sometimes I can compromise with bear this way I get to play with my phone and I can still,pet him at the same time

[untold breach]

I was gonna say if you're in Central your best bet is probably rutgers students

[paper reef]

This is Tiger. He’ll be 13 on Halloween

[vital badger]

he will sleep the entire night with me, cuddling me or in my arms, and domino my brothers cat will sleep the entire night against me or in my arms, an she wont let anyone else sleep with her like it

[winter fox]

It’s okay, I’m sure I’ll find someone in due time

[paper reef]

He’s my precious fat old baby boy lol

[vital badger]

bear is atleast 17

[winter fox]

Thank you though ❤️

[paper reef]

I stay on my phone so much that he’ll get annoyed and leave but I still try to make time for him

[vital badger]

he was a stray I took home

[paper reef]

Okay gtg, he jumped back up and wants me to pet him as he sleeps. He’s meowing already lol bye

[vital badger]

hes fiv positive so I tend to cuddle him constantly he will also lay on you all day and still sleep in your arms at.night if you let him

cya

[charred rapids]

What has this turned into

[vital badger]

it may be pogo but it says general too

and we where talking about our cats

while demand attention and cuddles

[charred rapids]

It says pogo general for Pokémon go in general

[vital badger]

:( so no talking about a thing else when its kinda quiet?

[charred rapids]

Not up to me whether it’s appropriate or not I just asked what’s going on and corrected your comment about Pogo general I’m sure maybe no one actually cares what goes on here

I think the only thing that matters is people not asking for raids

[radiant vigil]

I guess there is a general chat for the entire server itself though?

[charred rapids]

Yeah there would be

There’s a whole social channel with sub genres, honestly I was just pulling a leg

[radiant vigil]

The 6pm rocket balloon event was kinda underwhelming 🤔

[vital badger]

ok I just had something super weird happen

[charred rapids]

1 every 12 minutes, thought it would be faster?!

Did you turn into a pickle? If it’s not as weird as that I dunno if I’m interested

[radiant vigil]

Yeah 12 mins = 5 in the hour lol, not great 🤣

[charred rapids]

7 or so would of been nice, enough to get a full set of components and battle a leader

I suppose a couple more would of been better

[radiant vigil]

Should've just turned all the stops rockets, now that would be fun

[vital badger]

my ex fiance got a call a out a smart meter asking for miss H when we have never lived together nor have I ever put his name on my utilities, nor used his number in connection with them

I have never had a joint bill or account with him ither

[charred rapids]

I don’t even see the word pickle

[vital badger]

well they where in a pickle when they got the wrong person who has never lived at this address

[charred rapids]

Yay pickle

[vital badger]

[radiant vigil]

[lusty spoke]

Look at my girllll

[vital badger]

nice!

[lusty spoke]

canny wait till the weekend

[karmic raven]

Oh the Community day and the 3x xp and 3 hour incense that can be used after the com day

[vital badger]

what's the weekend?

@lusty spoke

[lusty spoke]

community day and switch over of legendaries

[radiant vigil]

Hype hopefully I can level up on the weekend

[charred rapids]

I’m definitely levelling up, finally

[lusty spoke]

time to throw a party for jesus leveling up

[vital badger]

congratulations

[tight pilot]

I still need to do about 20 grunts / 35 team leaders until i can level up in my 44->45 challenges but this weekend will be blissful for xp, lucky egg all comday long

[vital badger]

ouch

[tight pilot]

Angel is that a snail?

[vital badger]

I cant wait for commday only gona be out for the first half tho

no it's a fossilised sharks tooth o.0

[tight pilot]

Ohh i’ll be going all day

Oh whoa thats cool !!

Sorry just workin and was already in this channel so i figured easier to reply here lol

[vital badger]

I said I'd spend the afternoon gaming , drinking and dancing to music with a friend satarday

[tight pilot]

Ahh fair enough!

[vital badger]

it's fine haha I dont see how u thought it was a snail

[tight pilot]

I... i dont know mate

[vital badger]

like what part looks snail shell??

[pallid slate]

curveball seems redundant, anyone good at excellents is also curving

[lusty spoke]

👀👀

[hexed latch]

wait 3x xp and incense last even after the com day event?

[lusty spoke]

Uhhhh unsure on incense

[charred rapids]

If you put on an incense like two minutes before any comm day has finished it will have it’s three hour timer even after, however it goes back to normal after comm day finishes

The 3x xp is only in the 6 hours too, not after.

[hexed latch]

oh

im gonna be gone this weekend and cant take advtange of this xp 😔

[lusty spoke]

Pokemon will always be with youn

[vital badger]

I'missing like half of com day

[lusty spoke]

Whens it starting

I'm.sodrg it's 6 hours long

Imma pass out catching all of them

[vital badger]

whe does it start, if it's only 6 hours and it's from like 10am till 4pm I'm good

[lusty spoke]

11am to tpm

5pm

[vital badger]

yeah il miss some

[lusty spoke]

I'll be up for most of it might donsome raids mid way thru

[vital badger]

drinkng and gaming with friends and listening to music for Saturday from like 3 till we sleep

I bought 12 liters of fizz haha

[lusty spoke]

Ooooh

[atomic steeple]

Okay so I think I have to catch Articuno on my intereggsting research cause it says I have to Beat Giovanni to get the next super radar so I can't save this one :(

[vital badger]

ouch

[atomic steeple]

But also this is my first time fighting Giovanni so I'm mostly unsure about everything lol

[ancient river]

I think you’ll get Shadow Mewtwo after you complete An Inter-egg-sting Development

And you’ll get Shadow Articuno after you complete The Higher They Fly

[atomic steeple]

I thought that, but I think during March Giovanni only has Articuno no matter the research :/

But not positive, I hope it's mewtwo lol

[ancient river]

Ah I never knew that

Yeah I hope it’s Shadow Mewtwo for you lol

[atomic steeple]

Guess either way I have to beat him to find out lol

[charred rapids]

Pretty sure it’s not mewtwo.

Ya see people saved their radars skipping certain shadow legends to get doubles or triples of others, there were people with 3 shadow mewtwos and no birds before go fest

The only exceptions to this were shadow legendaries given to you as a task reward, but since you’ll be catching straight from Giovanni it will be whatever available shadow legendary it is.

[ancient river]

I have a friend that has 2 shadow Mewtwos so yeah that makes sense

[vital badger]

I think the first ever one you do is mewtwo tho

[atomic steeple]

How do I get the next radar without using this one to beat Giovanni? Or do I just not 'complete' intereggsting until April first and then do marches research

April will be zapdos, would much rather have that than arti

[charred rapids]

You’ll need to use that super radar before can get another, they don’t stack or anything so if you don’t want articuno, don’t complete it.

[twilit sapphire]

"Bravest bird"

i see what they did there

[atomic steeple]

Lol

I actually like that

[vital badger]

what does the ticket give u?

[charred rapids]

I’ll check serebii for all the rocket quests and see if any reward guaranteed shadow legends but I don’t think any of them did with the exception of Go fest.

[atomic steeple]

More research tasks

[charred rapids]

It’s the fletchling tasks

[vital badger]

I may have to nab it maybe....

[twilit sapphire]

@magic steppe Please don't ask for raids

Yeah it's the ticket for Fletchlings CD

[atomic steeple]

If intereggsting is my first I probably missed all the first one that reward shadow legends

[ancient river]

My friend has shadow Suicune. I def missed out on that

[atomic steeple]

Whaaaaaat

F

[charred rapids]

Rewards for completing ya specific inter egg sting research, no shadow legends but a radar

[atomic steeple]

Now im upset lmao

[lusty spoke]

shadow articuno

[charred rapids]

Yes I’m aware of what it is

[lusty spoke]

oh u meant an ecounter

[charred rapids]

They were wondering if old super radars rewarded older shadow legendaries

[lusty spoke]

ahhhh

[charred rapids]

They reward only whatever legendary is available.

So they may as well keep them depending on the legend they want

[ancient river]

I guess I’ll save the Giovanni radar for shadow Zapdos

[atomic steeple]

Should have at least one shadow arti just to have it? Or save them for better shadows?

[charred rapids]

I have one of each at the moment

[lusty spoke]

@ancient river why not get them all?

[vital badger]

what does shadow arti look like?

[charred rapids]

Never know when you’re going to get it again

[atomic steeple]

I guess I can always skip the next one lol

[ancient river]

Will there be a new research for the other shadow birds?

[analog steeple]

Shadow suicune looks so rad

[lusty spoke]

yep

[ancient river]

Ohh

[lusty spoke]

theyll do new research every month

[ancient river]

Dangg I missed out on shadow Entei

[charred rapids]

They’ll be back out eventually, the fact we have three of the birds each

[atomic steeple]

Wish I didn't miss mewtwo.. twice lmao

[vital badger]

I want the artiiii

I've missed them all

[lusty spoke]

you got all month for arti

[vital badger]

also shaman chexk ur dms

[atomic steeple]

I think I will get arti now, might as well collect them all

[twilit sapphire]

I dont like farming shadow legends

[atomic steeple]

That is a way better word for shadow

[twilit sapphire]

playing in spanish is stinky

[lusty spoke]

👀👀👀 100 mew candy

[atomic steeple]

F that just gimme one more chance to catch regional pleassee

[twilit sapphire]

what happened to this channel's pins? or am i buggy and discord just being dumb

ah yes it was discord only nvm

[charred rapids]

Yeah that bonus research doesn’t even need a month to complete and nothing out of it even comes close to making up for what happened, here’s a lollipop for your amputated arm

[lusty spoke]

but new cool robotic arm

[ancient river]

I still need Farfetchd. That’s the only dex I need for Kanto

[lusty spoke]

that has buggy software

[charred rapids]

No, you don’t even get a robotic arm

Just a lollipop

[lusty spoke]

can i get a spoon ?

[atomic steeple]

Mime for me

[lusty spoke]

thats comically large

[twilit sapphire]

Well for the farfetch'd, if you like testing your luck

you can always try 7km eggs

[atomic steeple]

The only thing keeping me from page 2 of mew research like please

[ancient river]

I do have one 7km egg

[atomic steeple]

Why tf can't galarian mime be in there too??

[charred rapids]

They actually hatch quite a bit from 7’s honestly, more than half of what’s in there

[ancient river]

So that’s 1/12 chances lol

[atomic steeple]

I've hatched 3fetch

Gimme the Clown!

[vital badger]

I'll catch mine on my alt

it has 20k stardust so it can trade it

wait I need40, for kanga trade first

[lusty spoke]

i think i have a spare clownm

i do have a spare clown

[twilit sapphire]

bless the 2 past regionals events

[analog steeple]

I keep getting sandshrew from 7km eggs

[vital badger]

mime not mine

[atomic steeple]

Pog intensifies

[lusty spoke]

so who needs the mime

[atomic steeple]

🙌

[lusty spoke]

right now i just gotta learn how to fly

[twilit sapphire]

Aight Im gonna need you to stop right there

[lusty spoke]

🙂

[vital badger]

this is why I need so.eone to catch me a kanga on my alt

[atomic steeple]

looks up plane ticket to Europe

[lusty spoke]

looks up drone prices and range

😄

[twilit sapphire]

Me looking back to good egg events

[vital badger]

just be a flight attendant

[twilit sapphire]

there were good times

[lusty spoke]

id take some deoxys or a dialga

the defense deoxys was always my fav

[atomic steeple]

What is that??

[lusty spoke]

im surrounded by needorans

[vital badger]

attack was mine out of the 4

I caught 2 nidoking

[twilit sapphire]

event that happened last year

or the year before that, i forgot

[atomic steeple]

Wish I didn't fall out of pogo back then 😕

[lusty spoke]

i dipped out of pogo after the first year

[ancient river]

I didn’t have ppl to raid with back then

[twilit sapphire]

Have such an awful luck for shinies

[charred rapids]

I remember when Australia got three go fests

[atomic steeple]

But also didnt really have people to play with then either so it was pretty meh

[charred rapids]

Because they shiny locked unown accidentally

[ancient river]

Same Shaman

[twilit sapphire]

lmao

the unown incident

[lusty spoke]

hey aimee can i slide you a shiny starter for one of them defense deoxys

[twilit sapphire]

only if the shiny starter is snivy

[charred rapids]

But at least we got compensation, this.....this is doodoo

[twilit sapphire]

since it's the only one i don't have

[lusty spoke]

frick

[twilit sapphire]

[lusty spoke]

i have a mainline game snivy shiny 👀

[atomic steeple]

I need snivy lol

[vital badger]

I have 0 shiny starters

[atomic steeple]

Contrary serperior is so

[ancient river]

I have 5 lol. 2 Kanto starters and all Johto starters

[charred rapids]

I too have them all but snivy, it was a short event that wasn’t even worth going out for

[atomic steeple]

There was a sniveling comm day??

F

[charred rapids]

Replacing them with average shiny mons for pvp was such a bad time

Nah it wasn’t a comm day that was the issue

They stopped doing starters and pseudo’s for comm days over a year ago now we get shiny mons that have been released and average mons for pvp

[vital badger]

shit I didnt mean to send that here

[atomic steeple]

[twilit sapphire]

People who have been playing for a while have all shiny starters since they all had community day

except for snivy

which is sad

[charred rapids]

I mean roselia what kind of decision is that

[twilit sapphire]

Roselia after we had an event were shiny roselia spawned everywhere 2 years before that

[charred rapids]

Yeah a safari zone and had boosted shiny rates

[twilit sapphire]

im still mad charmander won another cd

charmander didn't deserve it

[charred rapids]

Stay tuned, will probably win a 3rd

[twilit sapphire]

ew

[atomic steeple]

Repeat shoulda been bulba

[twilit sapphire]

yes

[charred rapids]

Shouldn’t of been a repeat at all

[twilit sapphire]

that too

[charred rapids]

We should of had a gible day by now

[twilit sapphire]

or an actual dragon week

[charred rapids]

Deino

[lusty spoke]

i would and i mean would pay £5 for a ticket for a dragon week

start with gen 1 monday progress through to sunday

[charred rapids]

Don’t, trust me dragon week was so bad

[vital badger]

this will be like my 2md com day

[lusty spoke]

thats 7 gens and such an easy idea

[vital badger]

I dod the magikarp one

[twilit sapphire]

i didn't mind having 21 golden karps

[charred rapids]

Karp was also already shiny, had multiple events where it was boosted in spawn and shiny rates and it still got a comm day for some reason

[twilit sapphire]

i love magikarp

[vital badger]

it was the first time I got shinies

[lusty spoke]

wouldnt mind if they halfed the needed evolve candies but heehoo

[twilit sapphire]

yeah Magikarp was the first shiny ever

so elusive in those times

then community days happened, which they were pretty lit

2018
Pikachu
Dratini
Bulbasaur
Mareep
Charmander
Larvitar
Squirtle
Eevee
Chikorita
Beldum

First year was nice, nice shinies, nice moves

[charred rapids]

I think I ended up with 10 in the first year of it’s released, traded and transferred because lucky wasn’t a thing and home was no where near in existence

[vital badger]

ee ixmissed dratini and eevee and chikorita and larvitar

mareep good too

[twilit sapphire]

2019
Cyndaquil
Totodile
Swinub
Treecko
Bagon
Torchic
Slakoth
Mudkip
Ralts
Turtwig
Trapinch
Chimchar

year 2 had swinub

[atomic steeple]

I missed bulba dratini and beldum and I'm still not okay

[twilit sapphire]

which is such an amazing ice

[vital badger]

theres so many I missed

[twilit sapphire]

and this last year which was weird but interesting

2020
Piplup
Rhyhorn
Abra
Seedot
Weedle
Gastly
Magikarp
Porygon
Charmander
Electabuzz
Magmar

[atomic steeple]

Also missed swinub bagon and ralts, 3 major favorites that's a huge F

[charred rapids]

Swinub is an amazing example of having a mon that’s not a starter or pseudo but still deserved a comm day

[twilit sapphire]

yess

[charred rapids]

Even though it’s comm day move was useless

See read the lists and watch it decline in value

[vital badger]

ralts bagon mudkip trapinch piplup Abrams gastly and charmander

[twilit sapphire]

and Machop, Roselia and brave bird boi this year for now

[vital badger]

I missed roselia day

[charred rapids]

Don’t stress finding someone with probably 30 spares wouldn’t be hard

[atomic steeple]

That's me

[twilit sapphire]

2019 it's the reason you see so many 4k cp slakings in gyms

[charred rapids]

18’ and 19’ were the best years for comm days, then it just went downhill from there for those who’ve been playing awhile.

[atomic steeple]

Do not want lol

[charred rapids]

I mean hey good for those who were new but, the point is to please both, not favour one.

[lusty spoke]

but jesus heehoo money

[twilit sapphire]

i came back to play just before first community day in 2018, since my phone died in 2016 and the placeholder one couldn't run the game

[charred rapids]

The last few comm days I’ve been “slaking” off

Only going hard for fletchling for the XL, it levels me up and I can move on

[lusty spoke]

speaking of slaking whats the counters for it

[twilit sapphire]

i already had roselias so i just went catching candies

[charred rapids]

Fighting

[twilit sapphire]

fighting types

a good machamp

or a good lucario

[charred rapids]

ConkelDURR too

[lusty spoke]

also what legendaries are we missing in pogo

[twilit sapphire]

machamp is the good old trustable that everyone has

aight legendaries uh, we had

Kanto Birds
Mewtwo and Armored Mewtwo

[charred rapids]

We’re missing some gen 4 mythicals and gen 5 mythicals, legendary wise I don’t think we are missing anything

[twilit sapphire]

and Mew from researchs

[lusty spoke]

so we have all the main legends right ?

[twilit sapphire]

Johto beasts and Tower duo

yeah kinda

Celebi thru research

Regis
Eon Duo
Weather Trio
Jirachi via research

[charred rapids]

And deoxys all four forms

[twilit sapphire]

Lake Guardians
Dialga, Palkia and the 2 Giratina forms
Heatran, Regigigas was during event and EX raids, Cresselia

AH yes Deoxys, all Deoxys forms

We still missing Myths from gen 4

rip shaymin

[charred rapids]

Darkrai as well

We got that fella like three times

[twilit sapphire]

Swords of Justice
This totem dudes happening right now
Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem

[lusty spoke]

lets make it 4 id love to see him again

[twilit sapphire]

and uh Genesect

and of course Victini

missing Meloetta, wish you here soon

and none gen 6 for now, they need to step up their game

and give us Kecleon

[lusty spoke]

wait we dont have deat bird or big deer

[charred rapids]

Yeah this game slowed down on new content real quick

[twilit sapphire]

not yet

[lusty spoke]

i mean were getting a new mega soon

[charred rapids]

New mega I wouldn’t classify as big mew content though

[twilit sapphire]

we will probably have mega mewtwo raids sometime

[lusty spoke]

WAIT

[charred rapids]

A new fairy legendary though, game breaking.

[twilit sapphire]

Diancie

[lusty spoke]

yveltal is in pogo

[twilit sapphire]

or Xerneas

[charred rapids]

We get deer boi, it will probably break the game

Yeah Xerneas is what I was aiming for

[twilit sapphire]

wonder how they will handle Zygarde

as raids for all it's forms? cause Zygarde is such a pain

[lusty spoke]

oh nope its jsut in the database darn it

[twilit sapphire]

in swsh

[lusty spoke]

zygarde will just start with the base snakey form

[twilit sapphire]

Zygarde is a great option for EX raids

[charred rapids]

Arceus will be more of a pain

[twilit sapphire]

if they happen to come back

[charred rapids]

18 different typings

[twilit sapphire]

pain

me theorizing Arceus were going to be EX Raids before this happened

[charred rapids]

That was everyone’s theory

And then COVID smacked us

[twilit sapphire]

just before

the possibility of EX raid Arceus

and now EX raids are paused until they find a way to make it work from distance or everything calms down

[charred rapids]

Probably when it calms, I don’t see them fixing it any time soon, they might even drop it

[twilit sapphire]

[charred rapids]

Ex mega raids maybe 🤔

[vital badger]

what are ex raids

[twilit sapphire]

[charred rapids]

No I hate that idea too

[twilit sapphire]

EX raids were a funny concept

to explain

[lusty spoke]

arceus 70,000 cp

[twilit sapphire]

uh, there are some Gym marked as EX Raid Gym

[lusty spoke]

needs a minimum of 10 man raid

[twilit sapphire]

if you battled in those gyms

sometime in the next week you would get an EX raid pass

not always, but there were always a chance you would get one

and had to go to a specific gym and hour, date only

to battle a legendary with a special move exclusive from those raids

[vital badger]

far away or?

[twilit sapphire]

Shadow Ball Mewtwo

[charred rapids]

You could also invite someone, only one person

[twilit sapphire]

was first ex raid boss

[twilit sapphire]

that depends on the gym you fought

[charred rapids]

So heaps of people were putting on fake smiles trying to suck up to those who got a pass

[vital badger]

they sound evil to battle

[twilit sapphire]

because it would give you a pass of any ex gym you fought

[vital badger]

oooo

[twilit sapphire]

they were fancy invites tho

they had a pretty animation

of inviting

looked like this

[vital badger]

wow

[twilit sapphire]

saying date, and which hour you needed to go

[charred rapids]

Yeah was an interesting concept, I don’t think I hated it, but I’ll hate it if it’s the only way to get mega legendary energy

[twilit sapphire]

almost always had lots of people, specially since ex raid gyms in that moment were usually gyms that were raided a lot

[vital badger]

how hard where they to beat?

[twilit sapphire]

Mewtwo was the same as it was last year

just had shadow ball

[charred rapids]

I’d say a little more difficult.

[twilit sapphire]

you could solo Deoxys Fast form

when it was in ex raids

[charred rapids]

We have access to more than what we did then

[twilit sapphire]

yeah maybe that's the reason it feels easy

but that moment was the only way you could get mewtwo

until they released him to everyone

[lusty spoke]

will sawsbuck change with the seasons

[twilit sapphire]

and Deoxys took its place in EX raids

[twilit sapphire]

it will remain the form it was caught in i believe

[lusty spoke]

damn

[charred rapids]

So you’ll have to catch a deerling each season

[twilit sapphire]

luckily it's only 4

deers

[lusty spoke]

wait

wont the deer stay the season it was caught in

[twilit sapphire]

yeh

[lusty spoke]

winter n spring best imo

[vital badger]

I need 8 then 1 for every form. and evo

[twilit sapphire]

winter and spring deers

[charred rapids]

I don’t usually keep pre evolutions

[vital badger]

I like autumn for both, winter saws, spring saws ans summer deer

[charred rapids]

Can only fit so much in me bag

[twilit sapphire]

i love autumn deer

[vital badger]

I'm finding it hard to pick between tufd now tbh

I need to pay for.gome so I can sit stuff in there to look pretty

home*

[twilit sapphire]

im using GO to help me complete nat Dex

for Magearna

[vital badger]

oh shit good idea

[twilit sapphire]

I need another Landorus soon

[atomic steeple]

[lusty spoke]

aimee how does it feel to be big brain 24/7

[vital badger]

shaman dms

I have released so much i could of sent to home, i am gona list everything then send 1 of them all to home

[twilit sapphire]

[charred rapids]

[vital badger]

I'm.so tired I want to sleep but I said I'd hoover...

[twilit sapphire]

[atomic steeple]

Yes?

[vital badger]

ots not even 10pm

[atomic steeple]

I either fall asleep on a couch or chair before ten or I stay up till 2 and ask why am I like this

[vital badger]

mum agreed to let me Hoover tomorow instead woop sleep

check dms shaman

good night and sweet dreams everyone

[atomic steeple]

Sweet dreams! 😴 :)

[twilit sapphire]

gnighty

[lusty spoke]

Pogo is taunting me

[atomic steeple]

I'm confused Niantic, where's my free shiny clown

[dire hemlock]

Whats this bonus stuff?

[charred rapids]

Compensation for ticket holders of the kanto event, since some players got the ticket and everything with it for free. A bad way to cover up an accident on their behalf.

So if you ended up buying the ticket you got it, if you didn’t, I wouldn’t worry about it.

[raven bone]

anyone wana do a landorus raid?

[odd glade]

Lol the funny thing is people who didn't buy the ticket will also get the bonus event

[analog steeple]

They won’t tho

[analog steeple]

That’s not the same as the makeup event I don’t think

[odd glade]

Guess they meant to the ditto&mew's

[surreal violet]

Imagine if the non ticket holders managed to get this free benefit

Never ending cycle xD

[dire hemlock]

Would anyone be down for a mega pidgeot? I need 3 more peeps and nobody's interested in the raid channels

[charred rapids]

Yeah that means the ditto and mew research, they can’t just strip it from every player that got it for free, too much work for them, they don’t get the bonus research which I mean, who really cares it’s trash anyway I don’t think the other players would be mad missing it

[tight pilot]

Is there some weird rocket event going on in the background this hour? My alt has gotten 5 baloons back to back to back lol

[radiant vigil]

is it 6pm on your side? there is a rocket event then

[dire hemlock]

Just beat giovanni for the first time!

[atomic steeple]

What team did you use? Lol

[radiant vigil]

lol i guess starting is the key word here, past 10am here and i dont see it yet 🤔

[tight pilot]

Yeah 6pm on my side, ouff i just need sierra left for my shadow articuno hut keep getting wrong leader lol

And i beat him on my alt sleepy, easier than cliff tbh

[analog steeple]

Seriously though. I have a harder time with arlo and the gardevoir

[atomic steeple]

I have a fine time with everyone but cliff

That dactl is a monster

[tight pilot]

Ehh none of them give me a problem tbh, so long as you got a bunch of starters with comday moves and then some decent type coverage elsewhere they go down pretty easily! Swampert + hydro cannon is a monster it charges up so insanely fast

[atomic steeple]

No swampert I missed mudkip day and that's my favorite starter besides snivy

[dire hemlock]

Used rhyperior, machamp, and melmetal

[atomic steeple]

Missed melmetal too D:

[twilit sapphire]

@safe gust please don't ask for raids in the raiding channels

[dire hemlock]

Oh god. That same guy asked how to get shadow legs from me, he meant a legendary

[atomic steeple]

Okay but how do I get shadow arms, please advise

[tight pilot]

Yeah rhyperior with rock wrecker mangles most team rocket teams too

[dire hemlock]

And this was asked in a unsolicited dm, hes hekking lucky i dont mind dms

[tight pilot]

[atomic steeple]

Any shadow arms in chat?

[twilit sapphire]

arms?

[dire hemlock]

Anyone who can explain how to get legs better then me

[atomic steeple]

All these shadow legs and I just want some shadow arms

[tight pilot]

LMAO

[dire hemlock]

How fight shadow leg

[tight pilot]

Tell him google is z great resource

[atomic steeple]

With shadow arms ez

[dire hemlock]

Everyone is asking wheres shadow legs never hows shadow legs

[tight pilot]

I somehow missed shadow raikou but have all the other shadow legends that have come out lol

The aboose is real toward the shadow legs

[dire hemlock]

Everyone be asking for shadow legs and arms but where is shadow torso and shadow head

[atomic steeple]

Me shadow tail

[radiant vigil]

what about shadow tail???

lol

[atomic steeple]

Hah! Beat ya lol

[radiant vigil]

the extra question marks cost me 😦

[dire hemlock]

Congrats mat just explain how to get shadow legs in #pogo_showcase

[analog steeple]

Shadow leg workout pls

[radiant vigil]

i abbreviate a lot of things, but never to shadow leg 🤔

[dire hemlock]

Rip them off then let them regrow, really helps the muscle

[analog steeple]

Inb4 Aimee pls don’t ask for shadow workouts cho

[atomic steeple]

Lmao

[radiant vigil]

where's the shadow gym??

[tight pilot]

Shoulda messed with him

[dire hemlock]

At the shadow hood

[tight pilot]

Been like “ya I host shadow legendary raids”

Only at shadow gyms , big rare

[dire hemlock]

Is shadow still a word?

[radiant vigil]

my cousin in law picked shadow as his english name lol

it's transcended words now

[dire hemlock]

Shadow has nice legs

Shadow the hedgehog of course

[atomic steeple]

Hey friends I taught myself how to shadow box and now I have acquired shadow hands

[dire hemlock]

dont need shadow arms for shadow gun

[radiant vigil]

my shadow has a shadow now

[dire hemlock]

Everyone at the shadow gym doing the shadow leg raid like:

Grookey destroys shadow legs

We have fun here.

[untold breach]

goddamn emo team rocket pokemon

https://pokemongolive.com/post/pcg-professor-willow/

[atomic steeple]

Yup I'll cop

[tight pilot]

LOL damn now im gon need to buy that too, it’s been hard enough getting 2 etbs of shining fates ffs

[atomic steeple]

Etbs? I'm sleep

Elite trainer boxes?

[tight pilot]

Elite trainer boxes yee

[atomic steeple]

Haaa I stay woke

[tight pilot]

You knew deep down

[atomic steeple]

But yeah I want those too lol

[tight pilot]

Also that whole announcement was legit for one card... ouf

I havent opened yet, probably gonna rip one sell the other

[radiant vigil]

Informative 🤔

[tight pilot]

LOL

Yeah apps been a mess the last like 2 days

Like the roselia ticket in the shop tonight

Everything not loading in, yesterday while driving i had to reload pogo before every little town i went through in order to load up stops lol

[atomic steeple]

I want shadow cards like a shout out to old rocket cards

[radiant vigil]

ah yeah that's a known bug atm, it won't load outside the cell you're in or it does it super slow

it was such a pain whilst trying to play in the car, had to keep rebooting

[onyx pollen]

@quasi mica hi, best friend soon, want to coordinate a lucky egg?

[tight pilot]

Yeah i hope it gets fixed asap bc when i travel for work i go through tons of small towns with a bunch of gyms/stops lol

Oh ^ Milliaswan you can take our ultra friend bonus whenever you want, i figure your saving for comday to pop a lucky egg but i know were way different timezones so idrc

[radiant vigil]

you're not wrong haha, was planning on popping during comm day tomorrow

i just coordinated one in the uk and it's already wild diff, NA would be entirely different altogether haha

[tight pilot]

I just noticed tonight that we were one day away but yeah I honestly always forget to use lucky eggs anyway so im not phased and I know you’re tryingcto grind through those levels

[radiant vigil]

normally i'm ceebs with ultras but just cos it's close to comm day i might as well stack it with some bfs anyway

level 50 is still very far away..

[charred rapids]

THEY SCREWED UP AGAAAAAIN

[radiant vigil]

😮

[atomic steeple]

[charred rapids]

I’m stealing from Naturn

[radiant vigil]

oh mine just loaded haha

of course they gave it to everyone LOOOOL

[atomic steeple]

Lmaooooo

[charred rapids]

[atomic steeple]

Technically non ticket buyers also got the ticket so wasn't everyone a "ticket holder"

[radiant vigil]

I still have it though 🤔

[atomic steeple]

[radiant vigil]

maybe if i rush through it now i can get it twice lol

[analog steeple]

Amazing

[radiant vigil]

*i paid for the ticket btw

[untold breach]

I still have it too lmfao

Can't wait for the shining fates stuff to actually get to Aus

[radiant vigil]

something actually arriving in aus? 😮

[charred rapids]

Yeah we get it, but all my preorders that were due in March don’t come until April

My etb I think might even be early May

[tight pilot]

I heard that those who didnt buy a ticket but still got access to the Kanto tour day are still receiving this make up event timed research so honestly it could just be that bc niantic said those who accidentally got free access will get acess to this too

[charred rapids]

Nah they weren’t suppose to get this.

[radiant vigil]

defeats the whole point of it XD their db probs can't differentiate between the two

[tight pilot]

Damn even Canada has got ours in most places with stock still coming in but like ya

[radiant vigil]

we only just got shiny toxtricity codes in aus this week too lol

[tight pilot]

Yes they were they said it in the event news when it first got announced

I’ll go find it

[charred rapids]

They said they’d have access to the timed research for Mew and Ditto still if that’s what ya thinking

[radiant vigil]

people probs would've gotten the ditto by now, but surely they could remvoe the mew one?

[charred rapids]

I guess they couldn’t.

[radiant vigil]

probably for the same reason why everyone got the research 😂

[tight pilot]

Hmm yeah must have been what I was thinking, i coulda swore they said theyd het access to this too but like lets be honest they totally could have removed the shiny mew research from those accounts who didnt pay for a ticket theyre just too lazy to do so

[radiant vigil]

they can't join their actual transaction + people who got the ticket tables? XD

[charred rapids]

Niantic is always lazy

[tight pilot]

Doing the bare minimum

[charred rapids]

I’m glad there’s someone out there with a free shiny ditto and future shiny mew while I had to pay, makes me feel grand

[radiant vigil]

it'll literally be like doing a database vlookup or something to figure it out

yeah why did i pay, should've just glitched my way to one

[lucid frigate]

I stole it from someone else too

[charred rapids]

Yeah clearly that was the way

[untold breach]

The etb was supposed to be late march, there's one collection that's pushed to April but I hope I get the etb soon LMAO

[charred rapids]

The ETB was pushed past March

[tight pilot]

Anyone know someone who didnt pay but still actually got it? Personally dont know anyone so just curious

[untold breach]

[radiant vigil]

saw some peeps in my local raid chat get it

[charred rapids]

Oh then it was my other preorders

[untold breach]

The premium collections were pushed to may

[untold breach]

[charred rapids]

4 items pushed to April is kinda sad but I’m fine with the ETB if that’s the case

[untold breach]

Yeah the shining fates etb is at the top

[charred rapids]

I won’t get my prem or pins for awhile

[untold breach]

[charred rapids]

Might just get another etb

Quench my addiction

[atomic steeple]

Are these already out in US?

[charred rapids]

Yes

[atomic steeple]

[charred rapids]

But I hear finding stock over there is pretty touchy

[atomic steeple]

Ohno

Boutta call my lgs

[charred rapids]

Australia is doing well when it comes to stock, EB seems to have plenty of overpriced stock to preorder, the delays that keep happening though

Man find some stock quick, scalpers are still going ham

[tight pilot]

Canada is quite stingy on stock, most shops overpriced, i was lucky to hit on PokemonCenter when that went live bc i aint paying no resale

[charred rapids]

Is there a tcg channel in here, should be

Canada’s EB isn’t as punishing as Aussie, so expensive we have to rely on target or Kmart for cheap packs

[tight pilot]

Yeah our eb only sold them at true retail $69.99 here i believe but didnt have much stock in any of my eb’s or friends in other towns unfortunately, think they got a very low stock but atleast not resale prices lol

[charred rapids]

$110 for an ETB

Being a sucker I still forked over the cash

[tight pilot]

$170-200 is what our “card shops” are selling em for here, true joke

[atomic steeple]

Yo what

[tight pilot]

but lmao i feel you, i’d probably pay $110

[atomic steeple]

That's like ten packs max right?

Jm is the money card goodlawd

Hm*

[tight pilot]

Yeah for 10 packs, like our big name card shops like hobbiesville, zephyrepic, 401games and stuff all that price

Its the shiny vmax zard, going for $800 cad for a raw one right now i think maybe bit less

7-800$ probs

[atomic steeple]

Oh my

[charred rapids]

That card, would be a dream pull.

Hopefully around 40 packs might help me out

[atomic steeple]

Would keep or sell

[charred rapids]

Grade and then maybe sell

[tight pilot]

My cousins got my two evo’s etbs (8packs only) for xmas just out of the blue and i pulled 2 holo zards, was some insane luck

I sent both in for grading to PSA, one pre-graded a 9.5 so hoping that one pulls through! Other graded a 8 so meh

[charred rapids]

I have a lot of cards I need to send over to grade, maybe I’ll even keep the zard not overly sure

[tight pilot]

But im not gonna get those back tull like next year, just sent em last month

[charred rapids]

Yeah I got the holo card, also got the dark zard holo from rocket set

[tight pilot]

And ouff yeah its annoying trying to pick which to send /which to not bother eith

Have a couple of those from my days as a youngin but i mangled all my cards to theyre in beaaat condition, lol same with dark blastoise i have

[charred rapids]

I think my old cards are in fairly alright condition, a few 8-9’s I’d hope

[tight pilot]

Have a good chunk of legendsry collection / base set two and some first editions/shadowless but all in such beat condition

Like my birthday pikachu that my dumb kid ass wrote my name on lmao

[charred rapids]

I didn’t :’)

[tight pilot]

Very jealous

I also must have spelt it wrong bc theres whiteout then my name ontop again of that so like idek what I was doing

[charred rapids]

I ended up with the world championship pikachu binder with the 9 cards, the balloon, the birthday, there was a few others

[tight pilot]

Ouu nice i’ve seen that one, I just had the original promo one, if it came in a binder my rents woulda kept it away from me lmao

[atomic steeple]

Now im imagining you traded for that Pikachu and the previous owner had their name on it, then kid you is all 'we'll see about that!'

[tight pilot]

LOL nah i’m like 99.9% sure it was my sister and i whited it out to put my name

[atomic steeple]

Lmaooo

[charred rapids]

[atomic steeple]

Lookit dat fatrat

[charred rapids]

[twilit sapphire]

round boi

[tight pilot]

Soo bootiful

[primal gyro]

too much birthday cake

Raid exp's not gonna be affected by community day, right? I'm a noob and just wanna make sure

[atomic steeple]

Oh fk bois my lgs got meeee

[tight pilot]

No its only catch xp

[atomic steeple]

4 etbs

$120 ea

[tight pilot]

So like the catch of the lando will be tripled but the 10500 you get wont be

$120 usd?!

[atomic steeple]

Yeah

[tight pilot]

Thats avg tbh

Check stock x probably got em even cheaper then that and theyre mainly a hype reselling community lol

[atomic steeple]

I don't think I'll find em cheaper

Oh I'll try that

[tight pilot]

Gotta stalk out those walmarts and eb games (gamestops for you maybe?)

[charred rapids]

$120 USD is crazy

[iron galleon]

If you get a second charge attack on a defense Pokémon for a gym, would it affect it?

[tight pilot]

Riiight, like $110 aud aint bad bc i know your dollar is like on par with ours but usd ouf

[atomic steeple]

Gamestop for me yeah

[tight pilot]

Like when defending s gym? It’ll use whichever attack is “super effective” that the game presumes as the “better” attack

[charred rapids]

That’s about $150 AUD, you’re getting ripped there would be definitely cheaper ones online

[tight pilot]

If that answers your q fuyu

[iron galleon]

Like, blissey is good for a gym right? If you add another charge attack for it, would that do any good for defending?

Dazzling gleam + psychic

[tight pilot]

I know a site that has em for $130 cad just unsure if they ship to the US lol

[charred rapids]

Teaching a mon a charge move purely for defending is a wee bit expensive

[tight pilot]

Meh gym battles arent “hard” in anyway, if someone wants to take out your gym they will with ease, its just tanky things that take a long time to defeat that people get turned away from bc time consuming and annoying like blissey, slaking, snorlax, just slow to take down

[iron galleon]

True

[tight pilot]

Yeah second charged moves are for pvp / raid use mainly pvp

[iron galleon]

I wonder if blissey is going to use both or just stick with using one forever

[tight pilot]

You’re probably better off investing that stardust into another mon, blissey is a fine gym defender with just one

And the candy to power up blissey to max

[iron galleon]

Yeah, ig

It’s already max that’s the thing

[tight pilot]

Or multiple blisseys to max if you have a few really good ones

[iron galleon]

I already have like 5 blisseys with max IV .-.

[charred rapids]

Well there are other mons to invest in I’m sure, gym defenders other than being maxed aren’t worth investing in after.

Teaching them another move doesn’t make them any more difficult to take out than it would with one.

[iron galleon]

True

[tight pilot]

Do you do any pvp / go battle league?

[iron galleon]

I do

[tight pilot]

Definitely invest in your main teams there for second moves and if you’ve already done so, get some backups with funky counters for when you wanna switch things up, I seen a good infographic the other day i’ll try to find u

[atomic steeple]

$112 on Amazon $80 on stock x

[iron galleon]

I guess that’s the best I can do

[atomic steeple]

But the 120 almost feels worth to guarantee it's untouched

[charred rapids]

Fair, no risk but one of the more expensive routes

[tight pilot]

Stock x is safe, i’ve bought off there before, reputable and if theres even a knick in the packaging you can file claim and get money back if neeeeed be

Also heres infographic

For great league meta

[atomic steeple]

Kwik dl

Stock x is trust?

[tight pilot]

Yeah i’ve bought and sold well over 10k worth of shoes and supreme (clothing n accessories n shit) over the last like 3+ years through them, worst part is they tax tf outta sellers with fees, i mean they gotta make their money but its like 9-12% for begginer sellers lol

[atomic steeple]

Oof, so they cater to buyers

[tight pilot]

Stock x was just hype resellers and since pokemon got so popular they added collectibles and cards to their selling now bc these ppl just in it for the money hell we’re the same douchebags that finessed fingerlings a couple christmas’s ago and made kids psrents pay through the roof for em

[iron galleon]

I mean that's literally why you can't trade traded pokemon

[tight pilot]

Yeah def cater to the buyers and like i could sell you something completely legit, you as the buyer could say its fake and have like a fake replica on hand, show pics of that and send that back to them, they’d give you the money and i’d be out the money and end up with a fake lmfao so definitely don’t recommend selling on there (why i stopped tbh) but buying is all good there

Fuyu ... what?

[charred rapids]

So many people jumping on the tcg bandwagon purely for money, ruins it for everyone they watch one collective guru video and think they are experts.

[tight pilot]

Yeupp everyones like omg i can make ez money buying pokemon cards?

[charred rapids]

They buy out the whole stock, open up packs and just sell the ones they don’t want for the original price of the pack

[iron galleon]

You can tell it's full of beginners. You see people looking for a shiny heracross

[tight pilot]

Lol pretty much, they have no idea and are just doing what the youtubers tell them

[charred rapids]

I’m maybe a fan of one poketuber, the rest annoy me, Dan, “Logan” etc, they just bother me so much

[atomic steeple]

Meanwhile Nintendo sitting back like 🤑

[tight pilot]

Yeah I honestly can’t watch any because they all just stress me tf out with how dumb they sre yet acting like they know everything

[atomic steeple]

I'll watch some of Dan's shiny content

But he's too much mostly

[tight pilot]

Adding three factories and reprinting everything as old as sun/moon series oh yeah nintendo rolllllin in it 💰

[charred rapids]

Yeah his shiny content although an overreaction his card openings are worse

[atomic steeple]

I like wolfy though

[charred rapids]

I like Maxmoefoe

[tight pilot]

Hmm i dont think i know this “dan” fella

[charred rapids]

LEGEND HEEEEERE

[atomic steeple]

Adrive

[tight pilot]

Maxmoefoe is pretty funny but sometimes a lil over the top

[atomic steeple]

YYOOOOOOOO
