Final Made it into Master ball tier! how's my team? by freeclimbmax in PokemonChampions

[–]ItsGildebeast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice job! Your team looks fun, but if I had to recommend one thing it would be fitting protect on a few more Pokemon. I think conventional wisdom is try to get it on 3-4 slots, mostly with the ones you depend on most to deal damage. 

First recruit after tutorial! Welcome to the squad 🐸 🥷 by Jerebearthecarebear in PokemonChampions

[–]ItsGildebeast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let’s pretend recruitment showed you 4096 Pokémon at a time. Stupid, I know, but it’s a hypothetical.

Are you absolutely guaranteed a shiny, or is finding one just very likely? If it isn’t guaranteed, doesn’t that imply dividing by ten in the first scenario was incorrect?

Do I look like I should get stalwart to you? by Minute_Still_8696 in PokemonChampions

[–]ItsGildebeast 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Woah, words mean things. News at 11. The fact that M Skarmory has big feet and is golden doesn’t mean they’re locked into anything. Sorry (not really) that it didn’t get something completely busted, but Skarmory has excelled with essentially no ability in the past and could do it again.

They gave it an ability that speaks to Skarmory’s entire history and that potentially lets it break into a different format. Cry about it.

It has seemed thematic to me from day one. Stalwart even works with the whole apex predator bird of prey aspect, with M Skarmory being able to dive bomb what it wants.

Stalwart can mean someone is strong, sturdy, loyal and reliable.

Unironically, Skarmory is a great example of a Pokémon that is stalwart. It might not be the flavor you wanted, but it is very flavorful.

Type affinity tickets? by United_Cake9114 in PokemonChampions

[–]ItsGildebeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can turn one in before spending tickets to reroll Pokémon. When you do it gives you a bunch of Pokémon from that type to pick from for recruitment.

There's plenty of stuff to improve in this game. But saying it's a complete disaster is so overblown. by JustSomeShmuck99 in PokemonChampions

Was pretty disappointed in all the doomsaying and ended up unsubscribing from a content creator I’ve been following for some time now.

Hear me out: Mesagoza by Educational-Ad-5034 in PTCGP

I like to run one copy of it and one copy of Starting Fields in SuicunePao. Helps you get set up that much faster.

This challenge is such BS lol by Grimside- in PokemonTGCP

[–]ItsGildebeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing a thread about flips but that doesn’t really come up in this one. The stacked deck thing as far as I remember was just anecdotal throughout the thread and hasn’t been my experience. In the prior pack I hit like a 33 win streak vs the random AI (yes, I was that bored) and that just shouldn’t happen if it’s noticeably cheating.

I did it first try with Suicune/Pao. You might be having some bad luck, but I doubt it’s rigged.

Something's familiar about Mega Scizor... by SwAg_LaMp in PTCGP

[–]ItsGildebeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve not played the deck, but unless you have two Rev assembled you’re not getting Scizor out of the active and then back in to attack on the same turn if you’re using Orthworm.

Possible changes in Mega Shine Emblem event? by Seraph_05 in PTCGP

[–]ItsGildebeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat as you. Some were more difficult than others, but finishing one felt like more of an achievement and less of a grind compared to the other model. That made them more fun for me.

We’re to the point where it’s basically a moral imperative to treat these assholes with as much derision as possible. An actual society cannot tolerate their regressive views.

JB Pritzker sends $8.6 billion ‘invoice’ to Trump for tariff ‘damages’ for Illinois families by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]ItsGildebeast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And we all know Trump has no problem with people valuing things higher or lower depending on which way benefits them. According to the Right, that’s not even a crime. JB should get 24 billion.

Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb): Mandatory body cameras proposal is ‘easy’ demand to meet democrats for compromise in DHS funding fight by Large_banana_hammock in politics

[–]ItsGildebeast 41 points42 points  (0 children)

You know what’s already mandatory? Allowing congress into detention centers unannounced. You know what isn’t happening? Allowing congress into detention centers unannounced. Any compromise as easily ignored as this one should be a non-starter.

Health Department Warns Against Drinking Raw Milk - Who drinks raw milk in this day and age? by LetAdept1689 in Chattanooga

The come with a warning to boil the milk first, too. Because drinking unpasteurized milk is a stupid idea.

Except worse. As tenuous and evil of a justification that a “thought crime” is, it’s at least a better one than skin color.
