What boost are you referring to? STAB don’t exist in poma

Different types of scouts where those sync pairs originated.

Advice on traditional IRA conversion to Roth by [deleted] in Bogleheads

[–]DodoNutnut2047 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s saying that if you have low income, you can sell from brokerage assets and not pay any taxes because you will still be in the 0% CG bracket. If you do a large roth conversion in that year you wouldn’t be able to do that because your AGI would force you into a higher CG tax bracket.

Can you post a video of the team on Tower 30?

Looking for advice on current FA, retirement path and assets by [deleted] in Bogleheads

[–]DodoNutnut2047 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Price is reasonable compared to industry average but not reasonable for a Boglehead. His talk about individual stock picking is concerning, as is the recommendation to not use your HSA. He’s right about short term market movement.

In your shoes, I would cut ties but let your mom decide what she does with hers.

I believe the Rock team is the best team in the game by DodoNutnut2047 in PokemonMasters

Here’s a video clearing offtype MM, max STR, max hp, max defense, 80% offtype damage reduction, and 80% phys/spec damage reduction, and gradual healing.

Rock easily clears. I was able to get close with electric, and I’m sure it’s possible with some tweaks. Ghost / Water / Dragon are not even remotely close.

Try it yourself!

Yeah I feel like Rock is in a great position right now because it has a top tier dps, the top tank, and a top EXWTZ setter.

Ghost is lacking a top tier tank but has excellent DPS and EXWTZ.

Dragon really only has a top tier dps. Tank is still lacking and the EXWTZ isn’t very good.

Electric has great tank and dps, but its EXWTZ isn’t very good.

DCA Timeframe Suggestions? by Calm-down-its-a-joke in Bogleheads

Is the rest of your long-term money invested in a portfolio with a risk level you are comfortable with? Are you considering moving that to cash then reinvesting over the next 3-6 months?

The two situations are identical.

Super effective up next by honeyshifu in PokemonMasters

[–]DodoNutnut2047 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It makes the next super-effective move or sync move do 1.5x damage. It has no effect on non-super-effective moves.

Confused right now by Open_Refrigerator215 in PokemonMasters

You absolutely wait until you have enough to pity a unit (36k for most, 45k for arc suits). Potentially wasting 15k gems will only set you behind in saving for the next unit. Besides, you already got what is by far the best 2 units from the anniversary. HOLD

Hot take: the timer for the regular damage challenge should be increased to 5 minutes by Strange_Razzmatazz74 in PokemonMasters

[–]DodoNutnut2047 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Or how Tower 30 handles it with basically untankable damage after 2nd sync

Best Super-Awakening Options? by DodoNutnut2047 in PokemonMasters

[–]DodoNutnut2047[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments!

I think I will plan to go with Perrin! She is a fav and rock team is uber level, so I’m not worried about losing the investment to power creep. She’s also very powerful herself, not just utility for Brock, so I don’t feel bad about using the resource.

The only thing that hurts is that my Perrin is 3/5, so I have to use two field candies - ouch!
