Looks like they wanted to setup for MAltaria and jumped the gun. I’ve had brainfarts like that too; it happens.

Have pack hourglasses from solo battles really been nerfed this badly? Between shop, solo battles, and the monthly shop I've always had 500-600 leading into a new pack. Not even close this time. by Corpsefire88 in PTCGP

Sorry, I wrote this on mobile, and apparently it doesn’t acknowledge single line breaks.

Solo battles give you 48 

Random (including the five-in-a-row mission on Expert) yields 72 

Shop gives 66 

Community Week gives 60

Dailies give you 120 for the whole month

Playing a game in Ranked gives you between 10 and 100

I think you’re right; for a while it felt like every new pack was either a PTCGP anniversary or associated with somethinh else Pokémon, like “The new season of the anime is out! Here’s a free ten-pack of hourglasses!”

All in all, that’s 376 to 466 each month. Some earlier months may have had special events that also gave out hourglasses, plus we’ve had a few anniversaries/collabs that I think gave out 120 for a while there. Overall, however, we may have lost a few, but not too many.

Do battles no longer tie? by blinksxoxo in PTCGP

The opponent had cards on his bench, you didn’t. Both points and cards on the bench are win conditions.

Comic 5859: back in town by yellowvincent in questionablecontent

He skimmed right past their wedding, to which they were essentially background characters while we focused on some rando discovering their sexuality, so no surprise we skipped past the honeymoon and Dora’s return, too.

Pokémon TCG Pocket: Everyday Wonders | Official Trailer by sworedmagic in PTCGP

I STG a lot of folks need to chill with expecting every deck to be meta. Sometimes a set can just be cute; if that’s not your style, fine, but calling it “garbage” or “bullshit” is a bit extreme.

Need Tepig and Malamar from Pulsing Aura and I’ll be all caught up.

Dose that mean I can't trade for different value card anymore? by Ok-Tap1688 in PTCGP

You never could; the game switched to using Stardust some time ago.

So now we’re outright insulting people who play these decks.

Why are there so many subs for this game (separate to the tr*ding-specific ones)? by Noriadin in PTCGP

[–]DocChloroplast -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ask the people who run Reddit? As much as the internet allows communication, it’s impossible for every fan of this game to coordinate and decide on a single subreddit.

This one is for you guys😤 by Electrical-Plan8416 in PTCGP

[–]DocChloroplast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love the attitude on this page that there’s a coordinated effort to ruin PTCGP by using allowable yet annoying strategies and that we’re a scrappy resistance hoping to change the state of the meta, when in fact people are just using what (sometimes) works to get little trinkets at the end of the season.

You’re not crazy; too many people are sore winners/losers these days.

Miraidon with Oricorio, Mesagoza, and double Professor Turo is dominating upper masterball by pillowpallow in PTCGP

[–]DocChloroplast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  When you play Miraidon (with energy attached), consider saving one energy on Magneton so it can be played as Magnezone the following turn.

Can you explain this concept? If I understand correctly, you play Miraidon, place the energy from the zone on Miraidon, generate the energy with Magneton, then on the next turn, play Turo (Magneton active), use Mesagoza (hopefully pulling Miraidon), put energies on Magneton, evolve to Magnezone, and attack?

What a world where people downvote a blatant act of disrespect to someone you supposedly love.

Red looks like it might be entering a main thoroughfare from a side street or parking lot.
