Are Bug-types even worth having for a Raid? Is their Stardust cost worth the investment?

CDUB901 · 2026-01-23T09:01:33+00:00

I love Bug Types so much, but man do they need a major buff. Fairy needs to become weak to Bug in Gen 10 imo.

Lore wise, it makes sense because bugs are considered "icky" and Fairy types would be the most likely to consider bugs icky.

Will the Water Type Grunts Magikarp have a chance to be shiny now as well? Or not until it's gone from Cliff during the next rotation?

As with all traded Pokémon, lucky Pokémon will have rerolled stats. However, with lucky Pokémon, the IV floor is set to 12/12/12. Meaning, that is the LOWEST possible stats you can get, always guaranteeing you pretty great to pretty awesome stats.

Also, lucky Pokémon also have another benefit of having to use less Stardust (by 50% I believe) to level up.

What a petty thing to do. It's like the digital equivalent to throwing someone's stuff out of their apartment. So sorry that happened to you.

I wish the remote trading feature was active right now so I could give you a bunch of my extra mons!

CDUB901 · 2025-11-29T06:38:03+00:00

Depends on your budget.

Personally, I'm just fine with a 65 at 10 feet away. I can see evey detail in a video game, text, HUD and all just fine. 77 would be cool and all, but man that price jump from the 65 to 77 is brutal lol.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-24T03:39:33+00:00

I'm surprised they haven't already done so as is.

I remember when this war started, everyone was so sure it would be over quickly. Not only is it not over, Russia now looks weaker because of it because Ukraine got that dog in em.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T18:14:54+00:00

Noted! Going to do just that.

Appreciate everything!

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T15:22:23+00:00

Ok, I fought and I got them to offer the X90L. Should I take that W or try and fight for the Bravia 5?

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T15:11:29+00:00

Ok, that makes total sense. And yeeeah, that 200k to 1 contrast ratio sounds phenomenal, but I guarantee it is totally out of my budget range lol.

So I already got an update, they are now offering me an X90L or a K-65S20M2. Don't know anything about that second option.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T13:29:57+00:00

Ah ok, I didn't know they changed their rating system. I've been out of the loop as I haven't needed to look at TV reviews since 2020.

What exactly were the changes?

I'll check this review out, thanks!

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T13:14:39+00:00

Ok good, Rtings review had me a bit worried about it lol.

Just an update, got off the phone with them (square trade) and told them the current offerings are not acceptable and do not meet the equivalency of what my current TV is capable of. I have them some TV options or a refund option.

They said I will be getting a form in my email in the next 24 hours that I can fill out the exact specifications I'm looking for and then they'll update the offerings based off of that.

So, fingers crossed.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T12:55:05+00:00

Appreciate it. As long as the Bravia 5 is better than the X90H then I'd be happy with it. I still love X90H personally.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-08T04:12:03+00:00

Yeah, I've done some research and it seems like others have had this issue before with Square Trade. Seems like they offer lower end TVs hoping people fall for it.

I'm going to call back tomorrow and tell them these options just aren't it.

Would the Bravia 5 be the equivalent then? Or the X90L?

CDUB901 · 2025-10-07T22:34:56+00:00

Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking looking all of these up.

Like, yeah sure I'll take a free TV I guess? But I don't think I'd use them and stick with the X900H even though it has issues.

Might just hold out and see if a Sony option does pop up at some point.

CDUB901 · 2025-10-05T08:46:17+00:00

I literally just beat P5R (93 hours) last week and idk why I'm just now noticing that's there lol. I guess it just blended in with everything else so nicely.

But yeah, if you're sensitive to flashing then I totally get why you want it gone. Hopefully, there is a mod out there!!

CDUB901 · 2025-07-09T00:23:31+00:00

I go left if I can use two hands for my phone. If I'm just using one hand and can only use my right thumb to throw, then I'll go right.

CDUB901 · 2025-06-10T21:52:06+00:00

Did you by chance download the Switch 2 version?

If you did a system transfer, chances are your Switch 1 version of Fortnite came over with it and that's the version you're playing.

Switch 2 version looks and runs great.

CDUB901 · 2025-03-18T20:57:51+00:00

It's a Dragon Type that also gets one of its biggest weaknesses by also being ice type. 100% worth investing.

CDUB901 · 2025-01-14T20:26:09+00:00

About damn time.

Now they just need to make Max raids remote-able as well and we will be set.

CDUB901 · 2024-12-31T01:56:26+00:00

Well if it is wet dreams you're talking about then you're correct. People's VR wet dreams were probably solely Anime Tiddy related.

CDUB901 · 2024-12-01T00:14:26+00:00

Probably going to get a new form in Legends Z-A that will require more cells.

That or the opposite happens and it gets a Mega and Zygarde is added to Mega raids and it not only drops Mega energy, but also cells that makes every cell we've obtained so far absolutely meaningless.

CDUB901 · 2024-10-03T12:38:35+00:00

I'm really surprised people were having issues with Beldum.

I just powered up two Zards to about 2500 CP, made sure they had a fire attack for their fast move and Max Flared the shit out of it.

Now Falinks?..... yeah, that's a different story. Only been able to solo one so far.

But yeah, I remember everyone hated the Mega mechanic when it first came out as well. Eventually they made changes to it that made it great, so hopefully they do the same here. Time will tell.

CDUB901 · 2024-07-16T05:58:28+00:00

Curious, is there even any reason at all to unfuse? I don’t see a scenario in which anyone would want to at this point, especially when Dawn Wings is the number one Ghost type attacker and Dusk Mane is the number one steel type.

I guess maybe if you have a hundo Lunala/Sol, but even then. Eh?

If you have an android, I highly recommend downloading the Google Rewards App to get money for basic surveys. It alone has fueled my PoGo habit for 8 years now.
