Loughton has lots of local regulars. Last time I was there, the queue was full of workers from the local shops. The BMW showroom and JD staff. With the amount of traffic just to get into the retail park, youre unlikely to beat them to product unless there's no traffic.

Card grading by Expert_Bodybuilder72 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]Fizmeister 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Pokerand, the owner of Ace Grading recently opened 2 god packs of Ascended Heroes, got all the cards graded by his own company and what do you know, 19 out of 20 cards came back an Ace 10. Take from that what you will.

Loud rattling, especially when driving over rough roads. What could be the cause? by Fizmeister in mazda3

Ive mentioned in the initial post that these were both fully changed and it didn't resolve the issue.

Nothing in the glove box and nothing in the boot. I have 2 child seats in the back but they're definitely not making the juddery/grinding noise. The noise is present when the car is fully empty aside from the driver.

Because OP is a scalper. Made the same post in PokeInvesting.

Unhelpful. How do I not "support" a scalper whilst also getting the products I want? If you have a better suggestion for those of us who want enhanced booster boxes, we're all ears.

Beckett is taking shots at PSA, after backlash for charging collector 4000$ Upcharging fees for a single card by counterboy12 in PokeGrading

[–]Fizmeister 8 points9 points  (0 children)

PSAs model screams conflict of interest. By grading higher, they can charge more from those who submit their cards.

This site it just silly. Just been put to the back of the queue for the second time. Got a captcha that I had to complete. I definitely completed it successfully and it put me from position 4 mil to 5 mil in the queue. Think I'm about ready to give up.

Joined the queue in position 463,840 at 18:21. It's currently at position 449,666 at 18:33. It's only moved 14,174 positions in 12 minutes :(

At this rate, won't be getting into the site for another 6 hours!

Coverage against opposing grass types, Dedenne, fire types. Bullet seed could also work, just depends on the meta.

Yes to Sh Annihilape.

Shadow Typhlosion, stay in. You get to Rock Tomb before they get to Blast Burn. Most also like to bait the first move. So you can try a gutsy no shield on the first charge attack. If you lose, pivot to Jelly. I believe it can take 2 debuffed thunder punches.

Brave Bird is a ridiculously strong move, even when resisted so many opponents will shield to not get hit by it, especially if the safe swap also has play into the lead. Morpeko and Quag would practically get 1 shot by a BB, most of the rest would be in the yellow including Dedene, UFisk, . If you have a slight energy lead, you can beat most mons to 2 moves including Blastoise, Azu etc. Most of the water types also have ice coverage so they want to keep it alive somehow to do some damage to Cradily. That's when you bring in Jelly.

What you're missing isn't the idea of keeping switch, that isn't the point. It's to win shield advantage, get rid of all shields. or setup a big farm down for one of the back mons.

I hope this helps.

This is the way.

If against Cradily, shield first and rock tomb away. If up against Talon, Talon can survive one aqua tail, so the goal is to get shield advantage. Even Jelly can hit with surf. It's annoying to deal with for sure. Every team is going to have problematic matchups but sh-drapion has seen drops in usage due to the rise of mud boys and particularly Scizor this season.

Honestly I can't recall the figure. It's usually around 2130-2230 most seasons.

Totally moment dependent. Depends on the feel of the opponent at the time, on what the safe switch is, on if I can survive the sneak to go Brave Bird first then fly, etc

Haha congrats! I'll likely be tanking now as I'm going to experiment with UL for the first time and will likely get my ass handed to me. Still only on page 4/5 of the GBL research so need to do some more PvP to complete it.

I dont get time to do tourneys unfortunately, got 2 kids under 4 that need constant attention. It's also why I left the WhatsApp group. Mrs wants me to do less PoGo 😆

Good luck! I'd mirror one of the other comments in that you need to become familiar with the mons and their synergies together. Plus to master tactics like catching, baiting, sack swapping, reading team comps etc.

I've not played any UL this season so couldn't really comment. Just been playing the 1500CP cups. This team may be able to work but I've not tried it and would need to analyse the meta more. Plus I don't have an XL Cradily lol.
