My issue with the EXP groups is most of the time they almost seem assigned at random or just based on a cursory thought for the mon. Erratic being slow until the mid-40's sounds textbook for the Pseudo-Legendaries and "pseudo-pseudos" as I call them (stuff like Axew or Trapinch which don't meet...

Replying with this part here because it's actual conspiracy talk and not just irritation at something wrong with the scenario (which it does bear, but clarifying since this is two separate replies I'm making) So my thing with the AI is that I can't remember any lines that confirm or deny that...

I have an extensive response I want to make but the degree of elaboration isn't strictly annoyance so much as theorizing, so going to post it in said thread. On this end the thing I find kind of annoying is how little fanfare the Book meeting has after the "return to title." You get the one...

Late to reply to this but I also remember people posting about DLC1 Gliscor vs a Pecha-Trick Gholdengo set (not sure if that was pure meme but look at some of the stuff on this list). Ironically this consists of two mons that I have the same assessment of: They're not broken/banworthy but I...

Okay so I know what you actually mean with this, but I find it funny because the UB's in their debut gam were specifically a concern BECAUSE they were suddenly popping up in random Grass Patches and you had to contain them, so theoretically that could be their excuse for them (or Paradoxes)...

I don't know enough about playing Crown, but for Moth, you'd be looking at it essentially having its Booster Energy set multiple times throughout the game, which heavily mitigates the mentioned struggles with Defensive Cores since being stopped by them doesn't cost it nearly as much AND it would...

If a Pokemon with an Air Balloon is hit by an attack whose secondary effect only works when it's grounded (such as inflicting a Scald Burn while Misty Terrain is active), does the Balloon pop before or after the game rolls and thus tries to inflict the effect? For another stupidly specific (if...

So specifically what people are finding is the game stops giving you particles once you hit 800 for the day, but they've been timing the 2km -> 300 Particle reward after hitting 720 (stops give 120 apiece) so the game doesn't hard cap you at that number outright. And mentioning the shiny I...

If the only move Wigglytuff has to worry over is Flare Blitz, maybe Rain Dance could slot in (either doubling up itself or covering something the other teammates don't use. Depending on Incineroar's debuff usage, I would say Wigglytuff can play best as a Support that can chip in DPS if Incin...

I honestly wonder if Gouging and co. will ever have this as a concern, since knowing TPC, they'll want Future and Past Paradoxes to have parity in games they return for, and Tapu Koko alongside the Futures is a disaster waiting to happen for either format. That said I agree that the absence of...

Apparently Power Spots are starting to pop up alongside the first Dynamax related Special Research, probably so people can catch their "first" Max Pokemon and learn the mechanics ahead of next week's event. And learn they are as people already found ways to get above the 800 Particle "soft cap"...

Max Battles sound pretty lame to me in that if they're not engaging for their own sake, you're basically playing them from scratch (due to requiring Max-able Pokemon) to catch... just more Pokemon. No use of the feature for other modes, nothing unique, and you can't carry much over to...

One minor tidbit, Ursaluna learns Crunch and Throat Chop for moves with secondary effects and the same BP as Tera Blast, because I can see the value in Dark Coverage and this doesn't require Tera to deal it (given how hard Luna can hit, it might be enough). Niche benefits on Throat Chop maybe...

Less Bad is an improvement over their current bad at least. Signed, a Luxray Fan

Shout out to RocketSurgery with the new Season Move update making Marshadow a beast in ML with the Sucker Punch Buff

The main thing I find curious is that there's a Hero themed event at the end of the month, starts the 26th alongside Zacian, but ends October 1st before Zacian's rotation is done, much less Zamazenta, the other hero, could appear. I'm also torn on the Crowned forms: I want Zamazenta for ML to...

What I said here is if you have a solution, DMing it rather than sharing it in the forum feels pointless and I would not leave it in DMs, because that solution proposal is one of the things you're getting grilled for not sharing and now you say you'll share it with individuals but not the...

Okay you do not get to play Martyr role for being piled on in replies just because you weren't literally the first message. Your reply was still the one that brought in the points that have been of the most contention, such as "you don't realize how big a number 28.2% of the playerbase is" when...

You brought the Steve analogy in and it's a bad analogy for supporting your argument. If the comparisons you bring in are bad logically, then it probably means the point you're comparing to also doesn't hold up with your argument. Case and point: "if Japanese Smash players hated Steve" This is...
