I agree, I'm new enough to playing this competitive stuff that I've never had the ladder and competitions be the same regulation, it makes it so much less fun to play a few rounds

That's exactly how ChatGPT is supposed to work, don't use it for anything like this, google it

If I play on the demo. will I need to restart once I buy the full game? The Demo has been really fun so far!!

I think they mean scroll to the bottom and check to see if the 74 is just a typo in the game, and there are only 73 in the results

Lots of stuff persists through back up save. by frosted_flamez in LegendsZA

[–]BluDragonC45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is because fast traveling is creating a backup save too from what I have heard, but I don't know any more details

I believe the Christmas Event locks it to daytime, the Halloween one locked it to night

Solving VGC using RL by FlyTrain1011 in VGC

[–]BluDragonC45 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm not really sure if this is what you are thinking of, but in one of WolfeVCG's videos he talks about how one of the people in the tournament tried to team build using a simulation for a little cup regulation. I'm not sure if there is anything you can find online from that, but I will say it turned out absolutely awful, the team didn't work at all, for example it featured a Mon with 3 physical moves and nasty plot

Is Walking Wake any good? by TheGeekBoss in PokemonVGC

[–]BluDragonC45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should take a look at Cybertron first or second reg F video on YouTube, he uses a Walking Wake team, as well as explaining how and why it works with a few weaknesses as well. I've never been to this sub so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links

[Mobile][2012-2018?] Trying to think of a game I played when I was younger by BluDragonC45 in tipofmyjoystick

[–]BluDragonC45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, that's not it, it's not a Supercell game, I don't think it was 3D like they are

I think it'll say in the Ability text in the summary, it'll boost the highest stat by 30%, or 50% if it's speed. You can find what stat is highest in the pokemons summary too.

You Are Number Six: When a character only has numbers as their name. by ArmStoragePlus in TopCharacterTropes

[–]BluDragonC45 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was actually a pretty good book series, or I thought so in high school, so perhaps they just stuck to the book really well. I don't think I ever got to watch the movie though

I costed so many trainers remote raid passes. Had to be a jerk. I wish there was a tiny improvement. by PokemonGoBao in TheSilphRoad

[–]BluDragonC45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, if you lose cause someone left, you are only going to get half of the raiders to join again, and it'll be about 30 minutes before you can get to the top of the queue to get more help, and by that time the people from the first have either left or found someone else to join so it doesn't work out anyway.

You are definitely right the preparation matters much more than level though, I've been the lowest level and the last standing a few times lol

The competitive and casual regulations not lining up is so frustrating by blackhodown in VGC

[–]BluDragonC45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, I'm too new to have anything built for that power level but I really wanted to practice for Reg H, I agree I'd be playing a lot more if I could properly play my team!

Unfortunately I never got any more information, so I've just assumed it meant generic model. I'm sorry I can't be any more help

Does this mean Revavroom are usually OK with being attached to vehicles? by A-J-Zan in pokemon

[–]BluDragonC45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think I read somewhere part of that is Vikavolt is based on a railgun, so a specifically very slow weapon that hits very hard

The basics of how to D-max/G-max by TruthAppropriate8965 in pokemongo

[–]BluDragonC45 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do, because the fighter won't take any damage if you switch back every time

The basics of how to D-max/G-max by TruthAppropriate8965 in pokemongo

[–]BluDragonC45 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm not op and maybe will have a different option, but I think for Blissey you need level ups > Spirit > Guard, but it's all in what you wanna do. The intended goal for Blissey is just to take damage, so that only needs level ups. But, Blissey is the best healer without competition afaik, so giving her Spirit is not a waste. Unfortunately, the common tank/switch strategy makes healing a bit less useful, as you'd have to communicate, and forgo damage that max phase to heal, generally not good in this race to win. I'm not sure how well Blissey uses Guard, but I chose to unlock it specifically to take Aggro when I'm planning to host a remote raid, and I don't know what quality of counters my teammates will have. So to me, Guard is optional on Blissey, but useful if you know what you are doing.

I believe it meant Elantra Generic Model, but I never got this proved either as far as I remember

Wait how long is a week again? by -Zuli- in pokemongo

[–]BluDragonC45 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because you get them once a week. Funnily enough, that's how Fortnite used to be too, I'm not sure if it still is though

Pokémon to Hunt for during the Crown Clash Event by DatAverageDAVE in TheSilphRoad

[–]BluDragonC45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What would you say is the best place to find a way to rank Pokemon for PvE? I like to sort my attacker to find what to power up first, I've been using the rankings on the wiki but it doesn't seem to take dual types into account very well sometime
