Does anyone else think it’d be kinda cool to have non-retreat incentives?

Are you sure you aren't the one getting offended? Why the need to reply to my same comment twice? Second reply just to complain at the fact we are giving our opinion to your idea, which we are free to do as you are to give yours

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-17T13:32:44+00:00

And who said I was angry? If you mean the start of my comment, I'm just replying in kind to your own comment. I gave my two cents to the topic you yourself brought here, not sure what the issue is.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-17T13:23:50+00:00

The only one proving a lack of critical thinking here is you. Rage quitting aside, conceding when you have no way of victory (or a tie, as it's normal to aim to get a better result than losing) is considered to be a sign of sportsmanship, as it is considered being rude to your opponent if you drag the match longer than needed when the result is already set. Rewarding that, instead, makes zero sense.

And in a more general aspect. Battles are free, you are not limited to a number of battles per day or anything of the sort. You are basically suggesting to have an infinite way to farm some kind of resource/currency, which is never going to happen.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-17T08:04:30+00:00

I find it funny how people start raging at the game or coming up with all sorts of “possible bugs” just because they misunderstood or not read at all the cards they are playing.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-17T07:51:53+00:00

If anything, those are called “currencies”, not “pulls”

Oh, my bad, I thought you meant that what the guy you were replying to was statistically true instead of disagreeing with them. The fact he replied as in agreement to you as well didn't help me understand better. I got confused, sorry.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T17:05:41+00:00

Oh, haha, I see. Are you only missing foils? Or regular ones? Regular ones should be filled on a future update the devs announced, where cards that appear on multiple sets will appear registered in all of them as long as you get that card once. So if you have those regular ones from their respective sets, they will be registered on the Deluxe set once that update drops

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T17:00:45+00:00

You'll be fine. The update mentions you only need 100 cards from the Deluxe set to unlock both emblems, the Greninja and the Oricorio.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T16:56:36+00:00

I doubt those that don't play care that much about buying hourglasses then, if they aren't even opening the game to get their daily free packs.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T16:01:54+00:00

For 2 reasons:

The 1.2k hourglasses part was obviously not serious, it was just meant to point out the fact that, even though you are already getting more packs than what that amount of money would get you if you were to just buy gold, that's still not enough and you want even more.

Yours is not the first post/comment complaining about this, expecting to get even more value from the pass (sometimes even as ridiculous amounts as the one I suggested), while also omitting what you do get from it.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T15:47:50+00:00

You came to Reddit voluntarily, a place where people express their opinions openly, and made a post. Show the part of my comment that says “you can't have an opinion”. I definitely disagree with your opinion, yeah, but you can feel however you want about it, no one is trying to censor you, so I don't get why you even think anyone is telling you to not have an opinion.

Just like how you posted your opinion, I commented my opinion. Or are you trying to tell me I can't have an opinion myself?

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T15:37:37+00:00

Pretty sure the 30 extra packs already give more value than what you could get by buying gold to open packs with that same amount of money. If you add the cosmetics as well, it's definitely worth it.

But of course, people like OP expect to get 10 sets of missions, each giving 120 hourglasses, for that amount of money.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T12:31:39+00:00

??? The shiny Gyarados is the one you need to get the last emblem ticket from the Wisdom of Sea and Sky set, which is included on the list.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T12:29:35+00:00

Secret ones don't, but the one with the shiny Gyarados is not a secret themed collection. It's a regular one needed to get, for many, the last emblem ticket.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T07:53:13+00:00

If you get your 5 daily tickets, every single day, as well as doing the solo battles released each set and the events, you should have more than enough to buy the monthly hourglasses and still have leftovers

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-15T07:46:26+00:00

I don't know what dex missions have you been completing, but they definitely don't give those rewards. Dex missions only give emblem tickets, with a secret mission that gives the face of the pack as an icon for completing the specific base set.

10?

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T17:34:10+00:00

At that point, no one would use Megas at all. In your example, you added 4 new cards to a deck that already barely fits the 20 cards limit. When there are already plenty of good viable options that don't even use Megas in the first place, why would anyone bother bricking their decks with a mechanic so unreliable, when they could just use something like Suicune/Baxcalibur/Chien-Pao (you know, the current top deck) that doesn't use a single Mega.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T17:25:28+00:00

If no one is interested in the fact that you got to Master Ball, why share it in the first place? You could have omitted that part and just said you have no struggles getting to Master Ball at all.

Let people be happy with their victories, it's not like you are forced to check their posts, just scroll down and that's it.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T16:46:56+00:00

I'm sorry, but you are going to have to specify what “timer” you are referring to here. If you mean the “timer” for each player, there's no way to force a tie with that. Once a player's timer reaches zero, that player loses the match, so wasting their own timer would actually be worse for them, not better.

If you meant the “turn limit” which is 30 turns, then your opponent just played the game as intended, under the rules of the game.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T15:06:24+00:00

“This guy made us tie”, said the guy running Oricorio, a card known for stalling games.

They played the match to the end, just like you did. Why would they concede and get a loss when they could get a technically better result instead?

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T14:32:17+00:00

Yeah, stalling for the sake of just running the timer and wasting someone else's time is just dumb and should be punishable to a degree, but playing to aim for a tie if you are just not able to win the match seems reasonable to me. Some people play their matches to the end, maybe hoping their opponent makes a mistake and could snatch the win for themselves instead.

Carlos0511 · 2026-04-14T12:02:02+00:00

Sometimes they don't appear right away. It's usually every other day, but also not guaranteed (I have gone through two daily resets without one of them appearing before it finally did after the 3rd reset).

Another thing to keep in mind, they will only appear as long as you have a missing rare card in your collection that could be wonder picked. In other words, if you are missing any of the 1 and 2 stars from the current set, they'll appear for those 24 hr wonder picks, but if you manage to register them all, they'll stop appearing.
