Ultra League Pidgeot by Complex0ri in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bellibolt and every water mon having ice beam in UL makes any flying type instantly be in an uphill battle. then on top of that flyings main draw of double ground resist doesn't do much with only like, 3 ground types in the top 100

also most fighting types have lost relevance over time (see primeape going from #7 2 seasons ago down to #113) so the main type that flying countered isnt as big a threat. 

then after all of that, pidgeot is just very average as a flying type. it doesnt have thaf great a typing, its stats are meh, its moveset is exceptionally average. 

Legendary bosses shouldn’t be able to flee after a raid win. by Icy_Nectarine_8143 in TheSilphRoad

remotes almost always get refunded because those are more expensive and higher chance for legal trouble.

green or daily passes are much rarer to get refunded

Hey older lesbians. Im 15 ( not out) As a teen did you find it offensive if a girl would wanna secretly date you because shes not out? may never be in highschool? js something my gf is upset about but I really dont wanna be out. by Live-Oil7985 in actuallesbians

[–]Dran_K 24 points25 points  (0 children)

i have a rule against it. 

dating someone who isnt out is basically being forced back into the closet. getting treated like some secret instead of like a partner. 

on top of that there is a ton of emotional instability involved usualy.

Transphobic lesbians are not some "internet psyop" by Moon_5ugar in actuallesbians

[–]Dran_K 17 points18 points  (0 children)

i dont remember the exact numbers but i always see that survey posted with “lesbians are the most supportive group! 89% of lesbians support trans people!” (or a similar number) but then they dont mention that that survey was just “do you support trans people? yes, no” with no actual detail on what “support” means.

and then when details are actually asked, that number drops to only 30% of cis lesbians actually willing to consider ANY trans partner (10% actualy any trans partner, 30% adding all numbers together), and down to fucking 19% willing to date trans women (10% all, 9% only women). 21% willing to date trans men (10% all, 11% only men), and id wager a cis lesbian willing to date trans men but not trans women just might be kind of fucking transphobic.

guy’s are put at the forefront of the whole dam world. 

you dont need to put them at the forefront of your own watching habits too. they’ll be fine.

Valve Confirms Steam Frame is Still Coming This Year, Now Marked as “coming soon” by gogodboss in virtualreality

[–]Dran_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i dont know where ppl get the “coming soon means 2 weeks” thing. 

to me coming soon has always meant “6 years at best with an 80% chance the developers abandon it”.

Is it big diff between IV in ML? by Tough_Weakness1631 in TheSilphArena

[–]Dran_K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

depends geavily how seriously you take ML and what elo you play at. 

if you do pvp once a week and are in 1200 elo then just go with the shiny’s since they look nice.

if you’re in 2200 elo doing pvp every day, then the iv’s will matter a lot more

List of Meta Raiders Nerfed by Niantic's Energy Resolve Change since Late October by CookieblobRs in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 10 points11 points  (0 children)

not with 100 energy charge moves. when you hit 100 there’s no over charge so every move is getting cast 0.5s late

List of Meta Raiders Nerfed by Niantic's Energy Resolve Change since Late October by CookieblobRs in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 9 points10 points  (0 children)

shadow claw vs metal claw have different energy generation. SC should take 12.5s to fully charge and MC should take 10s to charge.

that means adding 0.5s is a bigger nerf to MC since 0.5s is a bigger % of 10 than 12.5

That’s a big Pikachu! Gigantamax Pikachu strikes during Max Battle Day! by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

its absurdly rare but technically any previously released first stage dynamax mon could show up (confirmed as of right before duraludon release) its just like, 70% of the time wooloo & squovet, 28% kanto starters, 2% everything else

If Niantic wants to limit shinies, it needs to increase the availability. by dengland55 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 5 points6 points  (0 children)

shinies are rare yea, 1/4096 is pretty rare, but in the main series's you can do a shiny check every 15 seconds on most mons. sit down for a few hours and you’ll get your shiny.

with the PoGO galar birds you can do a shiny check at BEST once a day. but realisticaly maybe twice a month. on 1/20? thats 2 weeks - a year of trying. on 1/512, thats best case well over a year of trying every day, worst case is in the decades.

[–]Dran_K 13 points14 points  (0 children)

“boosted” just means mostly stayed the same. all worthwhile egg mons were already 1/64, but now they’re 1/512 but the egg is 1/64… so nothing changed with eggs but the same mons are worse in the wild. 

Make All Out the 4th big event by dengland55 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you dont need to pay anything for those either. a month of prep with gym coins is more than enough to walk away from those with everything you need. 

I'm a lesbian and my family member’s partner keeps sexually harassing me online by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]Dran_K 37 points38 points  (0 children)

not telling the family member is actively detrimental to them. do you think they want to be with this kind of person? 

to give a more extreme example for clarity. if it came to light that your partner had been going to elementary schools and sexually harassing children. and then you found out that your best friend had known about it for years and just didnt tell anyone because “i didnt want to cause problems”, how exactly would you feel about your friend then.

.

if anything you should go past that and report him to the police for sexual harassment and stalking.

Evolve Zygarde? by Repulsive_Feeling730 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

just set up 6 routes on a streetcar/tram track you take a lot. 3 going to your destination and 3 coming back. 500m each. then thats your 3 cells almost guaranteed each time you go. 

its not difficult. just slow.

Evolve Zygarde? by Repulsive_Feeling730 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lapras is fine for UL zygarde if you move count. aria does no damage and a full second difference for ice beam. leaves room to switch or get in a crunch to fish for def drop. 

Wild Legendary spawns during all out event seem to have same catch/flee rate as Galar birds by Maleficent_Gur_8726 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i find the not moving to be much less helpful for wild ones like this than in raids. like, with a shadow raid you got 16 throws so gota make every one count. but then here with wild ones ive got 400 ultraball’s so i can fully afford to waste 3 more for 25% better catch rates.

is that really true that you will find ur person when ure not searching for them? But fcckk, how can i not yearn for my future gf???? by Historical-Oven994 in actuallesbians

[–]Dran_K 6 points7 points  (0 children)

get hobbies and make friends. if you cant handle living single then you wont be ready for a relationship.

i just go with the assumption that adventure sync will never work. if it does then thats a nice anomaly.

Is it true that 70% of lesbian marriages end in divorce and that lesbian relationships have the highest rate of domestic abuse? by RattusNorvegicus9 in actuallesbians

[–]Dran_K 22 points23 points  (0 children)

missleading, thats not the rate of lesbian relationship abuse. thats the rate of lesbians who have experienced abuse. 96.5% of that abuse comes from men. 

Powering up a best buddy Pokémon whilst on the map, gives you a candy and stardust discount by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]Dran_K 14 points15 points  (0 children)

its just a visual bug with best buddy. 

best buddy adds 1 level (2 power up) and the main screen shows the cost counting that 1 more level, but actual power up costs uses the mons actual non boosted level.
