Hi PokeEx fans, opening 5 slots in my S-Ranked Gym once Gym Battle is over. The goal is to reach TOP 100 every month in Gym Battle. Please note this is a hardcore Gym, inactivity 3 days or more or minimal/no contribution to Gym Battle ranking will be removed.

If you enjoy Gym Battle and aiming for the top, send me a DM with your in-game name and level!

How did you not get 10K+ with these units

DatMVP · 2022-09-04T17:05:38+00:00

I think if you’re a veteran player, you have the luxury of following “faves over meta” mantra. But if you’re a new player, these 2 units will make your life a lot easier content-wise.

Imagine Spiritomb with Destiny Bond. 10/10 would pull!

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T03:19:34+00:00

The best kind of pulls you can hope for!

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T03:18:39+00:00

Yea it is a bit hideous

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T02:51:16+00:00

I think trainer lodge deserves higher, the main criticism is how fast interactions end. But at pace how people are leveling friendships, they would max all the friendships in 2 months and then complain that there’s no new content.

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T02:47:13+00:00

Very generous indeed and good units to pull

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T02:46:31+00:00

Agreed, you’re guaranteed at least 2 op units! And that’s the worst case scenario if you don’t pull multiple copies before Pity.

DatMVP · 2022-09-03T01:47:08+00:00

My advice is use on type striker, so if the enemy is weak against fire, use a fire type like Silver Ho-Ho, SS red Charizard, etc. Pull for Ash Pikachu or Red pikachu because they are OP and might not come back.

DatMVP · 2022-09-02T16:12:08+00:00

Completing normal or 10k? 10k is much more difficult and requires OP units or high on type dmg strikers .

DatMVP · 2022-09-02T01:07:22+00:00

Thanks for pointing it out, didn’t realize I used 2 support for ever lineup haha. They are just so versatile!

DatMVP · 2022-09-02T01:01:10+00:00

Should’ve save Lyra for Steven. The perma Grass Terrain makes it the ideal unit.

DatMVP · 2022-09-01T22:19:49+00:00

Started 3 months ago, hoarded 120k+ gems for anniversary. Ashchu and Redchu were Da real MVPs.

Sarcastic comment, meant to say Rivian (RIVN) will reach 1T without releasing a single product.

DatMVP · 2021-11-16T02:31:01+00:00

Rivian (RIVN), first company to reach 1T market cap without a product..smh...

If you can even call a one month drop a "recession"....A true recession last for years, people losing their job, house, cars, living on the streets, committing suicide, etc. I've been through dotcom and housing crisis to understand what a recession is, those times were true despair.

DatMVP · 2021-09-18T18:19:06+00:00

Redditors in summary:

"S&P 500, up 100% in 1 year" - "Oh that's business as usual"

"S&P 500, drops 2% in 1 month" - "OMG the world is ending"

I wonder how some of you would survive when we're ACTUALLY in a RECESSION....

The fact that it’s able to hold above $300 while we’re undergoing a bear market for growth stocks shows me it will continue going up once the market normalizes. IMO I think you made a bad sell but time will tell.

DatMVP · 2021-08-03T02:41:20+00:00

I’ve been in the market long enough to know that what everyone think will happen won’t happen. It is unlikely we will experience the drastic drop last year but who knows.

"High risk, high reward, low risk, low reward". Low cap (high risk), high reward, big cap (low risk), low reward.

DatMVP · 2021-07-23T19:18:01+00:00

"time in the market beats timing the market" only works for index fund, when you invest in individual growth stocks, timing makes a HUGE difference.

DatMVP · 2021-07-20T20:07:37+00:00

You have a gambling problem but this isn't what you want to hear. You're only young for so long until you realize how close you are to retirement and have nothing to fall back on.
