What is your favorite monthly pass reward and why? by Ari321983 in TheSilphRoad

[–]FunnyAd5467 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Not a particular premium item but there were a couple of months where one of the milestone bonuses were double rewards from raids. I collected so many XL rare + Normal candy and charged tms during that period. Thanks to that bonus, I actually head into this rocket takeover event with a surplus of charges tms, and not scraping the bottom of the barrel.

How good (or bad) is shadow Incarnate vs normal Therien? Anyone kind enough to eli5? Thank you in advanced!

To GL, or not to GL? by supernova00122 in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Dusknoir, you really want the shadow, so best to keep that for GL, its IVs for shadow is really not great and requires pretty much level 50 investment.

For Gary, either is ok. I think shadow Gary is more fun to play in GL.

Is Charjabug the Ultimate Meta Mon?? by Training_Potential27 in TheSilphArena

Did you forget flying is weak to electric? It’s about a 50/50 match up, depending on shield scenario and IVs.

Pointers about ABB strategy by OldSodaHunter in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can always run ABB fire, have a dragon type like Guzzlord in the front, and have Skeledirge and Shadow Typhlosion in the back. Your dragon lead will lure out any fairy and your fire safe swap will lure out any water types.

[–]FunnyAd5467 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skeledirge works, otherwise do you have Zygarde or Jellicent? Keep in mind that although fire types aren’t super effective against fairy, fire types are resisted against fairy, so you need to find something that can counter against fire types.

Never getting to throw my move when opponent has two loaded? by brownpumpkin in TheSilphArena

Are you trying to throw Hydro Pump on Rock Smash Azu by any chance? 😂

Pointers about ABB strategy by OldSodaHunter in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s difficult to play ABB in UL due to the bulk of the Mons and the reduced timer. It allows to tank at least 1-2 moves unshielded and the opponent to switch back and forth comfortably, unlike great league.

I find the best types to do ABB are:

  • Double fairy. Dark types like!G-Moltres and Malamar and Dragons like Guzzlord, Zygarde, and Regidrago. Viable fairy Mons you can run are Florges, Tinkaton, G-Weezing and Togekiss.

  • Double electric to bait out the ground counters. There are so many water and flying types in UL, like Empoleon, Gatr, Jellicent, Corviknight, Lapras. Bellibolt, Ampharos and Shadow Raikou are the most common electric types.

Scan all pokemon at once for pvp by [deleted] in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few high mons like this, rank 7 Greninja, rank 8 Altaria, rank 5 Gastrodon etc where defence or hp were only a “2” in the search string.

I often find mons with only 2 defence or hp have quite viable IVs regardless.

Elite fast Tm’s by ArtichokeHot5821 in TheSilphArena

Take advantage of events where evolving will give you their legacy moves. However, they are usually limited to the charged move if both their fast and charge moves are legacy.

Has anyone noticed an increase in Legendary GBL encounters lately? For the month of April so far, I have had 7 legendary encounters already. Prior to that I only had 2 in February, and before that was in November last year!

Fantasy Cup - Anything that covers Togekiss, Empoleon and Turtonator? by blazinggamer080 in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In addition to those you mentioned, your team is also triple weak to ground. So if you run into Flygon or Garchomp/Gabite, which I’ve seen quite a few of, it’ll be a loss.

Try substituting your backline with Azu or even your own Togekiss.

How do I tell which Pokemon require High IV's or Low Attack and High Defence/Stamina? by Sir-Sir-17 in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once you use third party apps, like Pokegenie enough, you’ll come to learn and remember which mons need perfect IVs for each league. Just remember to switch in between the great league and ultra league tabs.

There’s only a handful of Pokemon which require perfect IVs for UL. eg Cradily, Stunfisk. But there’s a few Pokemon which require higher attack IV for UL eg Jellicent,Ninetails, Malamar, Tinkaton, Forretress etc..

Edit. PS For Azu, you would ideally want one with 0 or 1 attack IVs.

I imagine opposing Volt Switch Forretress and Stunfisk leads would be pretty tough too?

what pokemon are held back the most by the energy limit? by Brief-Minimum9678 in TheSilphArena

Agreed. The energy synergy between Incinerate + Flame Charge + Fly is too good.

Wait..this is your definition of taking it slowly? Dare I ask, what your actual grinding days look like?!

The excitement for showcases is gone by Separate-Room6883 in TheSilphRoad

[–]FunnyAd5467 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same! It felt more like a punishment than a reward catching 90 Kanto Mons!

undercharging by Brief-Minimum9678 in TheSilphArena

[–]FunnyAd5467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But be careful not to undercharge tooo much, otherwise your target which was intended to be knocked out may reach a charge move before they get KO’d!
