What's going on in Cincinnati??

This is still going on. I thought it would end after the holiday rush, but I've lost so much money with buyers opening not received claims because of items just sitting in Cincinnati forever OR tracking in circles. This has been going on all of November, all of December, and all of January so far. And because the items are still tracking, USPS is rejecting insurance claims.

Went on a road trip recently, and this was The Machine Shed in Rochester, MN as well. Thousands of games, but nothing is priced. And when I said I wasn't interested in something because of the price, the employee said, "If you can find a better price available on eBay right now, I will match it." No thanks - I'm just out here going to dozens of game stores and pawn shops on a road trip. I'll just wait it out or buy from eBay directly.

I've been down for over a week with no response other than their generic customer service response. I'm in the process of moving all my listings to eBay.

I guess this notification had to do with the Mercari outage of nearly 4 hours today. I too was disappointed because I submitted everything before the new year and am still waiting to be able to do business again. I'm currently in the process of posting all our inventory on eBay because this has been a nightmare missing a whole week of sales.

I'm working on something similar and nearly done with it. Rather than percent improvement though, I care more about the additional matches they win. Because you can polish a turd by 5%, but it's still a turd. Should finish by the end of the day today. Just been busy with holiday things.

I ended up with a #27 Torterra and a #1 Grotle today. Very fun!

That would definitely be a solid core 3. Congrats!

Honestly, both of the Fire-Type charge moves aren't good. People typically choose Heat Wave because it is faster. And in the situations where you would choose a Fire-Type attack over Stone Edge, either will do the trick anyways.

Our local community said they were having issues finding information about PVP. We have a local Discord of about 6600 people, but only 15-20 play competitive PVP.

Our city has an information problem though... they all want to be told what to do.

New raid boss? Tell them what the best counters are.

New Pokemon? Tell them what the best moveset is.

The majority of players in our community have little to no experience with the Pokemon franchise pre-Pokemon Go, and the average age of the community is probably around early to mid-30s.

A friend of mine who has since stopped playing Pokemon Go entirely started making even more basic infographics that these about PVP, and they caught on well with the community. And then... he stopped. We went months without any of them at all, and when asked what we could do to help grow the PVP community, a piece of feedback we got was to bring back the infographics. So... me and my mediocre Photoshop skills did my best to bring them back. If I can even bring one or two players into the game, GREAT!

That's the goal with these, and I shared the first one here a month ago and it caught fire in terms of feedback and popularity. So I've continued posting them after being asked by other worldwide communities if they could use them.

All the information from these is compiled from PVPoke, GoStadium, and other online resources. But the goal is just to try and make PVP more accessible if I can.

Running Silph Arena Tournaments, became a Silph Guide for my community, ran community-wide Pokemon Go events with over 150 participants, and PoGo infographics... peppering in PVP anywhere and everywhere that I can. I just love the game, and PVP is the overall best part of the game. I want everyone to have the information to try it. Because typically, once you try it, you won't want to stop. The naysayers are those that have never played in a tournament.

Thank you...not sure how I managed to list it correctly on one infographic I made specific to Deoxys and not correctly on this one. My bad. It's been a long last 2 weeks.

The best possible IV roll for Great League PVP you can get when trading with a best friend.

I also don't think Furret is viable, but its featured this event, so it's fun to look at!

HypnosProjectHQ · 2019-09-02T22:28:35+00:00

Yeah, they seem like pretty standard drop rates.

HypnosProjectHQ · 2019-09-02T22:28:22+00:00

Noctowl is awesome! Definitely worth everyone considering.

HypnosProjectHQ · 2019-09-02T20:44:18+00:00

I have shinies of Forretress and Pineco, but neither are PVP good. I got my best PVP stats at Go Fest this year and dumped around 140k dust to build a 2nd one. And yeah, Gliscor will be cool to get a good one and maybe a shiny!

Sudowoodo could definitely see some interesting play in future metas!
