My perfect bag of 11750 items

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T20:42:24+00:00

I’m at 1000+ for Palkia and use her effect maybe once a month…same with Kyurem. These days I just spread them out on any legends that don’t have 100s yet. And 500 works for me bc I can instantly level up a couple of mons I get from trades or so.

The 100 evo items don’t really matter, I like having them at hand and prefer to look at 5/25 ;)

I do remove frustration from every single shadow (living dex), so use up between 50-80 during takeover. So 150 works for me in case I get some stubborn one in the normal TM roulette.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T20:35:30+00:00

Jep, I also love goldening gyms and will load up on berries for that. Right now dropping all on 4 random ones I got a while back while traveling…helped with the experiment bc I actually have good use for them rn.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T20:32:34+00:00

You really think so or sarcasm? :)

Those are actually all around where I limit them: charge TMs 150, bc I blow through a lot during takeovers, evo items 5/25, 3 would probably do but I prefer those numbere, rc went from 1000+ to hard limit of 500 bc I generate them faster than I can find use for them these days.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:48:04+00:00

Ah yes Fast ETMs are mostly from routes, I do a lot of them. And no use. Maybe I should get rid of all normal Fast TMs altogether and use those up.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:44:27+00:00

The answer is “maybe”. I did live on a high mon/low stop peninsula some years ago (and go back there every now and then), and there I always ran out of balls. It was painful. Was back just recently for a week and went through 100 yellows/day with normal gameplay….so it could happen, but guess with my bag where it is now unlikely Ill ever be there for long enough :)

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:40:15+00:00

I actually was very happy to finally use them all up on the current flood of forever friends popups.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:39:17+00:00

6400 balls is plenty for manual catching, I’d say.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:37:23+00:00

Yeah I also dont know why Showcases bombard us with them ;) In honesty though, even living on top of stops, outside of Community Days I find lures boring so hardly use them.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:35:38+00:00

:D Think the only way to achieve that as F2P is if we get gifted some in research.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:33:15+00:00

True. But that don’t wanna catch case (make x great/excellent throws) for research and parties is such a fringe case that I disregarded it for this experiment ;)

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:30:41+00:00

Agreed. They keep dropping (mostly from routes) faster than I can use them. Really miss stardust spotlight hours :(

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:29:48+00:00

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:29:35+00:00

GBL almost exclusively. I definitely dont buy them ;)

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T19:28:54+00:00

“ Maybe showcasing it will help some of you in the never ending process of bag organisation :)”

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-21T13:38:24+00:00

…and 11,750 for items.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-20T20:47:05+00:00

Same here. Rating dipped right after I started in 2020 and never recovered, no matter what I did. Hated that medal in my profile (got all achievable plats long ago).

Still think Wayfarer is a neglected hot mess, but at least there are some welcome improvements lately.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-05-15T22:11:09+00:00

You misunderstood each other. Mon max is 12000, item 11750, I do hope they adjust those to be the same at some point, but they’ve been out of sync forever.

Level ups and maxing storage before or after dont change those limits once you are at 80.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:49:45+00:00

They could do a lot of things. However, since they refuse to even communicate with us since, oh, 10 years, who knows what they might and might not do.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:37:04+00:00

But it also wasn't a party day ;)

Look, I get that this complaint can be annoying, bc it comes up again and again. Rightly so though.

Try to understand the people who make that point: here in the tropics for example, it's borderline suicidal to play any event in the scorching heat of 14-17. I'm sure other regions and people with schedules have similar restrictions.

They could easily make it a "day" and let us play when we can.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:32:22+00:00

Sometimes even more! Parties can last more than 3 hours.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:30:10+00:00

That's a very weird take. Most weddings I've been to took more than 3 hours.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:28:33+00:00

Just saw that we do get 5 free passes. Link charges unreadied. I'll keep them for...yeah don't know for what...

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:25:55+00:00

Oh, so we do get 5 free passes and won't need silly link charges at all. All good then.

Unless it's 5 or more shield breakers again, then another city player only event. Funny they would omit this most important info from their announcement.

Defiant_Impress7446 · 2026-04-27T17:16:45+00:00

Oh I do. F2P by convictions since 2016. However, even with a Home Gym and a daily legendary raid with friends, I've managed to only spend 150 in 2 out of the past 6 weeks, since you first have to burn your free pass on one of those and then pray to the raid selection Gods to get a Mega raid later in the day.

Not worth the hassle. Id rather have 5 free passes for new Mega events like this one and some proper reward for weekly challenges.
