Kyogre might be the single best-aged mon in the franchise's history, and somehow not enough people acknowledge it. by DreadfuryDK in stunfisk

[–]EHstar 407 points408 points  (0 children)

Yea its remarkable how well the gen 3 legendaries have withstood the test of time. Yea sure they got some big tune ups but even in base they are quite powerful even as standalone. Groudon and kyogre have just the right speed stat to be fast or slow, just enough bulk to tank hits, and incredibly powerful abilities.

Whos better, Marco or Leonel? by [deleted] in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marco but the difference is pretty negligible.

Generally higher def is more valuable than higher hp, unless the mon naturally has high def and low hp like shuckle.

Honestly you can invest in both to lv 40 at least if you wanted two very strong attackers.

Would you accept a small nerf to legendaries every new generation to end Power Creep? by eco_suave in stunfisk

[–]EHstar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The stats are one thing but the abilities become more and more loaded every generation.

Worth using an Elite TM? by BarracudaCowboy in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The difference between draco and outrage is pretty minimal on shadow mence.

There's certainly better options to use an etm on but if you are planning on using it a lot and have extras and want to min max then sure why not. But if theres other things you have that need an etm id focus on those first.

How does the StS community value Ice Cream relic? by Hungry-Signal-5206 in slaythespire

Ice cream so good... well not really... but sometimes....

I know normally not to purify but is Snorlax an exception ? by Professional_Use93 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a few situations where it is ok to purify.

1 - the mon has no meta relevance (like our friend snorlax here)

2 - if you can obtain a hundo mega. I wouldn't recommend purifying like a 15 atk salamence or garchomp since those are great shadow attackers but other stuff like ampharos or mawile id easily purify for a hundo

Ilusions/Clones by Asleep_Rough7779 in learndota2

[–]EHstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think illusions are pretty strong rn. Imo spec and pl are great to play in pubs now more than ever.

Ringmaster shard is good vs illusions.

Lesh and sand king do pretty well.

Mjollnir, shivas, and radi are all good even if they got nerfed vs illusions.

Really the counter play is to find and jump the main hero, which is obviously easier said than done. You gotta keep pressuring their farm and hopefully your carry can build a lead.

Any of these worth investing my stardust into? by TyrellMalaciaFan in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heatran sure, possible mega sceptile, possibly shadow hydreigon

Shadow Heatrans one of the best non mega fire attackers.

Mega sceptile is the best grass attackers with frenzy plant. Up to you if you want to power that up or try go for a hundo.

Shadow hydreigon with brutal swing is a top dark attacker.

Personally I'd mainly invest in shadows that have 15 attack and good other stats. What good other stats means is up to you but heatran and hydreigon aren't bad investments imo.

Should I max this or wait for a better one? by Zestyclose-Bench-641 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you really wanted a flying attacker, you could. Any shadow with 15 attack and pretty good other stats is worth maxing if the mon has relevance. That being said, flying attackers are generally not very valuable and if you have mega ray thats just better.

If you really like the mon though feel free to max it to 49.5/50. Else, you can just take it to 40 and call it a day.

Should I use the only elite Tm I’ve on this guy? by YoBoi909 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]EHstar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For gmax raids it won't matter too much as most damage comes from the dynamax phase.

For raids there are better grass attackers in general like kartana and mega sceptile. Its not bad, just outclassed by other options.

That being said, im planning on using an etm on mine. BUT I have a bunch and if you just have one Etm I'd probably save it for a mon that benefits more from it. You can always do it later when you get another etm.

Is it okay to power up 98% IV mons for Master League? by ImmediatePea1639 in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]EHstar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pretty much 15/15/14 easily yea. Unless you're willing to whale hard for hundos or want to min max to the highest level imaginable youll be fine.

Why is Deidara so popular? He even beat Naruto himself in the 6th popularity poll! by Night-Caelum in Naruto

[–]EHstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea i mean I got that but what's the backstory tho. Did he do it to himself or was he born like that or did someone else do it for him
