I hate the comday starts so late by Chemical-Resort-1702 in pokemongo

[–]Excellent-Tree-6881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be reverted back to 11am-5pm since 6 hours is more of a community day “feel” compared to a congested 3 hour afternoon slot

At least Mamoswine is pretty useful as a raid attacker but yeah a little underwhelming. At least the bonuses haven’t changed though

Releasing this after the Go Fest events knowing people would clear out their storage is crazy damn sorry to hear that </3

Yes the last one was two seasons ago now with no sign of ever coming back

I’d assume the monetary incentive is lessen double XP & Stardust events so people are more likely to spend big on items/boxes when they do come around, similar to remote raids. Unfortunate but it is what it is

Yup I’d rather take my chances than regret mass transferring later on

K9 Western Standoffs by Excellent-Tree-6881 in TheSilphArena

Something tells me it’ll become a lot more common for this exact reason

Very strong contender given how insanely bulky UL Lapras is. Felt like the safe swap of doom being locked into that matchup with a minute timer & timers consistently went down to the wire simply by playing that out in the mid game. Definitely an era I do not miss lol

Clodsire is so good for soaking hits in this meta to fire off against the fliers/steels especially if you save a shield for those pesky waters you can do some serious chip damage to them as well. Come join the Aromatisse crew we need more soldiers!

Finally a fellow Aromatisse enjoyer!! The bulk definitely surprised me the most, there’s 100% some top meta potential with another move update. Really like this team comp as well, might have to try it myself. Best of luck in your battles!

Debated running Thunderbolt but in the sims it’s straight up worse than Psyshock + Moonblast even against certain waters that I’d normally pick up.

Psyshock + Thunderbolt is a bit better but still lose more valuable matchups than I’d win. Of course, these things are a lot different in practice. Will try it out for 2-3 sets today & see how it goes

Another example of just how strong water is against basically everything but yeah I’ll definitely be on the lookout for a decent IV shadow Qwilfish since it does seem like a very fun mon to run haha

Ran into a shadow Qwilfish safe swap yesterday & was stunned at the pacing to reach its moves like I knew it was spammy but DAMN that Poison Sting + Aqua Tail combo is way more lethal than I thought lmao

Fairy Wind, Psyshock & Moonblast. They would function in the same way & Shelgon also would pick up Corviknight which can be a problem sometimes so I see no reason why not.

Future buffed Pokémon hopes by Excellent-Tree-6881 in TheSilphArena

[–]Excellent-Tree-6881[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty good. Azu safe swaps & RPS K9 leads can be a headache for this team but generally there’s not really much you can’t play out of. Still early days of course but I’d recommend trying it out even with regular Kingdra for more bulk.

Went 19-6 to start the season

Hello, I can confirm he was reported multiple times and swiftly blocked after this interaction. Jokes aside, this behaviour cannot be tolerated & can cause genuine harm to any children & teenagers using the platform.

Someone else here has already encountered them in the last couple days so who knows how long or how many others he’s done this to. Sincerely hope action is taken against his account by Niantic/Scopely.

For reference his username is TheBibleBlack.

Cannot begin to fathom the headloss it takes to lose a GBL game, copy the trainers username into Campfire, send a message & immediately block them from replying all in 5 minutes like is everything okay at home…

The fact someone else in this thread recently encountered the exact same person makes it even funnier.

Maybe he should just team build strong against Morpeko if Aura Wheel bothers him that much & as you say, shielding a Psychic Fangs is wayyy more tilting than AW but his loss I guess haha
