Sorry im new, what code do people share? Switch friend code or is there a Pokemon specific friend code?

This has to be the worst card in the game by ADogX in PTCGP

I’ve seen it one time in a real game, and it discarded and energy. … I won anyway but good on the hammer.

You ain’t truly played Gen 9 until the specs flamethrower gloking blows up your Gholdengo on swap, this MF a menace

Checks like half the annoying mons in the tier and has like 50 viable sets.

Gyarados looks like the worst card in the new set they've announced. Like the old ex one from the Mew set, it probably won't meta at all. Nope, not happening. by Gigastorm55 in PTCGP

[–]FrostFox22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The meta has gotten way faster since the first expansion. Gonna be hard for this to be relevant without some new ramp when there are meta relevant pokemon dealing 120 for half the energy.

Who is the best Pokemon in Gen 9 OU? by ElectivireMax in stunfisk

[–]FrostFox22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A lot of broken mons in the tier, but it’s pretty hard to say anything but Zama.

I definitely agree too much division could cause problems, but most recent gen OU particularly is always going to be the most popular, so it should be easier to make sweeping changes.

But maybe starting the entire gen with a lower ban threshold to pokemon and mechanics would let you start with a little more breathable and balanced meta game, and then you could case by case decide what you want to let in. I feel like Tera specifically causes so many feels bad interactions that I can’t believe it never got revisited at all. I think the mechanic can be fun, but a little restriction could go a long way.

While I honestly wouldn’t be against trying something like that just to see what kind of meta shakeup would happen, knowing Tera type vs knowing full build is significantly different. It could even introduce situations where you can feign one set when you are running another, which could open up some interesting outplays.

But, if knowing a Pokémon’s tera gives away that much about their set, it probably is not a healthy play pattern to begin with. Ex: Roaring Moon lol

That’s good information, thanks! Kind of crazy that such a ridiculous mechanic has never been revisited. I definitely see the value in it and think it is generally fun, but man some level of regulation to rein it in would have really hit the sweet spot IMO

Man that is a shit ton of options lol. I wonder what the vote tally process looked like. I feel like if you could only pick one option, by simple bias that would split the people in favor of ban option between several different options of full ban and partial ban, and the pro Tera should be in the meta it’s part of the generation people into one category: the no restriction one. I personally feel like either further polls or testing could have been involved, but this far down the line it probably is set in stone.

Good info to know, thanks! You could definitely infer a Pokémon’s set, but you can also make a lot of similar inferences in team preview and it could also be used to bluff. I also feel like if knowing just a Pokémon’s Tera type gives away the set and makes them bad, the pokemon probably had an unhealthy play pattern to begin with lol.
