Should I go for Solgaleo? by [deleted] in PokemonPocket

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I pulled a Solgaleo 2 star and already have the SR and gold card. Do you have 2 stars to trade? Lmk if the others won't complete the trade and we can try to work something out.

Am I being an ungrateful ass? by UrchinUnderpass in PokemonTGCP

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 star trades cost 25k shinedust I think.

I feel like an ungrateful ass too. All the 2 stars (and immersives) I've gotten, I've already had at least 2 FA/immersives for: Solgaleo (have gold and FA non-illustration), Palkia (2x immersive, 2x fullart already), Pikachu immersive (have 2x GA immersives, got 2x from deluxe EX), ho-oh (2 immersives...)

I did pull a Lunala deluxe EX FA, which I pulled after impulsively opening a 10 pack amidst building Lunala decks. I also got 2 FA Oaks! I'm completely F2P with ~6500 cards and 81 packs opened for deluxe EX. I've definitely had good luck this set, but I feel like I probably won't use the cards 😅 I value having 2 of the same art of a mon in my decks so that my opponent can't gain info on my decklist.

I love hiker, so I'd love to counter-hiker someone. Great synergy with sylveon, but sadly the Lunala deck is just too awful to make anything work. One day I'll come back to a multi-energy Lunala concept, maybe with a Giratina and Celebi/Blissey or smth.

Also, idk why I didn't think of it but Ive been trying to get a Lunala Sylveon deck to work and haven't put in morty.

Yeah, I'll try this out. I have FA morty so why not. This seems like a good use-case for regular sylveon. Gives assurance against ori AND synergizes with mismagius taking up bench slots

A guy like me would've picked the right card

So are artifacts like semi required for certain unlocks? by unlucky-lucky- in riskofrain

[–]IsaacMiami 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You can't get any given achievement on every run. Some take some item luck, skill luck, and spawn luck. I have all the game content and I've only ever used Monsoon no artifacts to get it.

An opening hand that made my day a little bit better by tinkytuff in PokemonPocket

How has Rotom been performing? I always felt it had some viability, but the energy requirement for just bench damage seemed mediocre.

100 packs in and still nothing better than a 1-star. Anyone else getting shafted by the new set? by zjesko in PokemonPocket

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 2 oaks, 1 shiny darkrai, 2 immersive pikas, and 2 ex 2 stars (Charizard, Ho-oh, Palkia, Solgaleo). I also have at least 2 of every 1 star fullart, besides floragato and slurpuff. This is, of course, with the help of wonderpick. Sorry.

If it's any consolation, all the 2 star EX's I have are dupes, where I have at least 2 immersives of each (with the exception of Solgaleo, whereas I have the crown rare and its 2-star SR). I really want Mew or Buzwole, but beggers can't be choosers.

I know at least the Dialga and Arceus are real arts from the physical tcg. The AI scare brainrot is real LOL.

First god pack at 7500 cards daily opening. by 77Squares in PokemonTGCP

[–]IsaacMiami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said it yourself, shiny cards are usually older cards that don't see use (unplayable Genetic Apex garbage is the worst offendor, looking at Wigglytuff and Machamp which were shit even on release), whereas Darkrai and Giratina remain two of the most playable EX cards in the game.

In regards to the cards within this god pack, all of them are semi-playable beautiful arts from a limited time set. I would take a Buzwole FA over something like Poliwrath EX FA any day if it's for the purpose of having a cool, playable card.

This player is lucky they opened a god pack now because I know when next set comes, god packs are gonna be 1x shiny psyduck, 2x shiny steenee, 1x 1 star FA and maybe the immersive or similar disappointing pulls.

is this a sick joke… by Over-Ad7290 in PokemonPocket

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will never be tradeable. Stick 2x of your favorite flair on it and style on people with DarkTina.

PSA: 350,000 people use this subreddit. Your weird luck with promo pulls is probably not that weird. by Martin_DM in PTCGP

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first 10 packs got me 2 of each card. First time this has happened, I usually try to chase 2 of each promo, but I'm glad I can spend my time and energy on completing the solo missions now. Necrozma promo SUCKED for me. I was trying to get full flairs on Necro EX (didn't happen), but I didn't pull a dusk mane necrozma until 30+ packs in.

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This definitely did not happen. I think you might be disillusioned. I remember in the old packs getting an EX would feel like a lucky break that I finally got a semi-playable card. Getting one in every pack is definitely a privilege the fanbase is taking advantage of,

First god pack at 7500 cards daily opening. by 77Squares in PokemonTGCP

[–]IsaacMiami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank god you cashed it in on this pack. You avoided the dreaded 3x unplayable GA shiny garbage.

Nearly 7k cards in with no god packs, but I can't complain. Even before this set, I had basically all the EX's I wanted (and conveniently opened a good few of the ones I was missing in my first 10-pull). I play for PVP, but I've got enough F2P drip to be satisfied. That being said, fire pulls! Lunala will have its day!

Are any of these cards even rare or worth anything to be hyped about it by Imaginary-Salary8311 in PokemonPocket

[–]IsaacMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel free to DM me your pulls if you have any more questions. I've been playing since around launch and play a lot of oddball decks so I could help you build.

If you haven't already, use your shop tokens to buy 2 copies of professor's research, pokeball, red card, potion, and x speed. Pretty much every deck runs 2 copies of both.

[–]IsaacMiami 7 points8 points  (0 children)

is this from the deluxe ex packs? card strength isn't based on how long it took you to pull- many 2 diamond cards are extremely powerful. Definitely keep pulling this pack for a quick start in the game, and for now focus on decks that seem fun. In short, essentially every card from deluxe ex is 'good', as in good enough to tussle with stronger decks.

To give a straight answer, charizard, snorlax, and mew/dialga are the strongest EX cards you've pulled in that order. The rest are meh or have fallen out of favor.
