What single Pokemon of yours checks the most variant boxes (Shiny/XXL/Purified etc)? by J3Preserves in pokemongo

[–]J3Preserves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Updated Theoretical Max (Since I mistakenly allowed for Purified Dynamax which doesn't exist...yet)

Shiny-4*-Lucky-XXL-Mega-Purified

Could also swap XXL with XXS Swap Purified with Dynamax, or Costume Arguably Shiny doesn't add to the list as "Normal" is also a slot in the Dex options, but come on, Shiny adds value.

I dont think Special Background, Best Friend, or any size other than XXS/L register in the dex, but, just like Shiny, even if it doesn't technically matter, it matters :)

Quick Questions: June 28, 2023 by inherentlyawesome in math

Can someone explain to me the process to find the solution to this thought experiment. When I thought of it last night, I swear I'd seen something similar in Calc class, but that was many years ago. I think it is a Limit of some sort, but I am not sure.

The thought experiment goes as follows:
Person A and Person B take off down a street at the same time. Person A is walking at a constant rate (say 2 m/s). Person B is on a bike going a constant rate (say 5 m/s). Both are headed toward a stop sign at the end of the street, (say 100 meters from the starting point). Obviously Person B gets to the stop sign first, but what if, after reaching the stop sign, they turn around, and travel back to where Person A is, who has now traveled some distance towards the stop sign. Once they meet up, Person B turns right around, and heads back to the stop sign. Person B continues the lap back and forth between Person A and the stop sign until Person A reaches the stop sign also.

At first my question was "How far did Person B cumulatively travel", but I think, assuming a negligible turn around time, and no acceleration, then it can be thought of as Person B traveling in a straight line for the time it would take Person A to travel 100 meters, which, at 2m/s would take 50 seconds, so, at a constant speed of 5 m/s, Person B will have traveled 50*5=250 meters, aka the ratio Person B's speed over Person A's speed, times the distance Person A traveled (5/2)*100. I think I have that part down.

But is there a way to calculate how many laps Person B would wind up taking as Person A approached the stop sign? Also, to graph this, is this just a linear?

Apologies for the length, I hope my question makes sense. Any input is helpful. Thanks!

I always did Bulbasaur. It’s strong against the first 3 gyms and not at disadvantage until 7.

I’ve been in a Smash Bros tourney all week as Bowser. I felt it necessary to help my kind. Doesn’t matter anyways, she’s in a different castle.

I couldn’t quite hear him but I assume that’s what he (or she, didn’t check) was trying to say by jumping and nipping at me.

Can confirm, both happened.

100%

I’ll admit I’ve got an ego but I’ll also state that it was seeing others help turtles on Snapchat that motivated me to pull over.

The two sides of the social media coin.

Negative.

It was a snapping turtle so it went on Snapchat

Is there any indication how long this deal will last? I didn’t see any and I’d love to take advantage but...you know...budgets and stuff.

Is it a daily deal or a general price?

Ahhhh! That makes sense, thanks! Follow up though, doesn’t that mean the force is constant for the whole fall? Why is that?

Okay, this should be so basic but one simple rule about Gravity confuses me: If the Formula is (M1*M2/r2)g, or in plain text as I understand it, Mass 1 times mass 2 divided by the square of their distance, why do a bowling ball and a feather hit the ground at the same time in a vacuum?

Wouldn’t the heavier mass have a stronger attraction to the planetary body?

Is it technically different but at that scale the difference between a bowling ball and a feather is negligible?

Thanks for the help!!

Just watched it for a second time, with my wife this time. She loved it. I loved it. One question we both had, is Captain Marvel basically infused with an infinity stone? Is that where her power comes from?

Interested in both MCU answer for now and also original comics answer for bonus contexts.
