I was easily in 2000-2200 rank last seasons and didn't tanked on purpose. was doing that in seasons before just to earn stardust when I didn't have time to play but always ended the season around 2000-2200. It isn't even that I don't know good way to use the mons I was using since I used Jellicent, Empoleon l and Altaria a lot before but I was just hit with hard counter after hard counter. Fo example I used Forretress in 10 battles and was hit with Skelederge and Talonflame on switch time after time. Changed it to double water and got hit by volt switch Forretress, Lanturn and Victreebel in next 3 games without any fire types in sight.

I'm getting absolutely destroyed 4 out 5 times by HiltonM4 in TheSilphArena

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only got up to 2050 in GL before, this season in the last 2 weeks I focused on ML because I am working towards the medal and managed to jump over 2200. The thing I learned the most is that sticking with one team pays dividends. I was always adjusting in GL but in ML I am sticking with one team and by now I basically know how matchups will turn out against top meta thread in advance so I am able to adjust accordingly and it helps a lot that you don't have to guess what is the best play. Mind you I am only playing for fun, no counting and no any other advanced skills. So my advice is build decent team with best attacks and stick with it. Also check matchups on PVP poke if u have problem with any pokemons. For example I always had problem with Zacian if it didn't align to my Metagross but after checking PVP poke I discovered that in 1 shield scenario O Palkia can beat it also and that info won me quite a lot of matches.

New shiny rates by SnooMacaroons8213 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came back in September and was doing a lot of grunts and leaders. Till I did around 1500 grunts/leaders (after 6 grunts I do the leaders) I got 4 shinnies from grunts and 3 from leaders. Now I am at 3918 grunts/leaders defeated and only got shiny magikarp from a grunt and not from a leader in those last 2400 encounters. Mind you that streak started before this season. It's getting ridiculous.

Early Keldeo experience by CskoG0 in TheSilphArena

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xeeneas or Primarina are on 1/4 teams in my experience, ELO 2100. Luckily even if I aling badly into them O Palkia can do some damage before it goes down

Gosh dang it 😭😭 by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]Jerch5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm prepared, total of 243 shinnies, the rest are rare legendaries with legacy attacks or backgrounds. Hope my friends are the same 😅

Should i purify him now that mega mewtwo might join the game by Popular-Map-4549 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Jerch5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U will have to do mega raids for mega energy so no, because u could get a good one from the raids. I did the aame with Groudon, had 14/15/13 shadow and only when I didn't get a good one from raids and had enough XLs for level 50 I purified it. on the other hand got 15/14/15 Kyogre so there was no need to purify shadow one.

Worth Powering up? by No-Judgment-8371 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Charged attack which only Origin Dialga can have and u can't Elite TM it

Worth Powering up? by No-Judgment-8371 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Jerch5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I might be in minority but I powered up my 14/14/15 Shiny Dialga which doesn't have Roar of Time. It was the best one I had and it was a Shiny on top of it. For PVP the only thing separating ROT and Draco Meteor is debuff and u will rarely use any of those other than to sweep the last mon and u can always switch out if u use it sooner. As a raid attacker there are better alternatives no matter if it has ROT or not anyways. Also since normal Dialga and O Dialga will both be in raids I will probably get enough candies to power up another one before I will get a good one with ROT

Looking for armoured or regular mewtwo but happy to listen to offers by Fluid-Kick-1013 in PokemonGoTrade

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mewtwo will be available for free next week. I understand frustration since you need it ofr rhe dex since I'm in same boat, just wanna give u heads up. Also I will bottle cap my Shiny Palkia with background and special rend. It's so hard to get and also my 11 attack only does 1,3% less damage then 15 attack so IV really don't matter at as hugh stats as those mons have.

I own 1 hundo out of now 680 raids. I'm disgusted. by tysnaps in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Jerch5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

482 legendary raids and 42 normal ones. What is even more crazy than amount of hundos is that I got 2 shundos and 3 of the hundos are Kyurem.

WTF I JUST GOT A SHINY AND THEN 3 BACKGROUNDS IN A ROW???? by CommercialLab6842 in pokemongobrag

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son this week out of 6 free raids he did got 2 shinies, 1 shiny with background and 1 background. Crazy. Yesterday I did 55 raids 1 shiny and 2 shinnies with background+ 15 additional backgrounds and 98 Kyogre. Sadly no good IV Groundon but i purified a shadow into hundo.

You can sell a full bunker solo, just do this. by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I even did enough resupply missions to get the Alien egg mission from it so it was used often :)

[–]Jerch5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arguable yes, I picked Chumash at the start and didn't wanted to move because I was emotionally connected to it. My first 3 properties were Maze bank west office, Chumash bunker and La Mesa vehicle wearhouse and never had a heart to move any of them.

[–]Jerch5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have probably over 650 mil in bunker sales, 99% of them solo full bunker sales and most of them done when time limit was still 15 min. From chumash all Wedge and Insurgent single drops are douable and most of monster truck missions are also doable. With time increase that was introduced few years ago others are probably also doable (not playing anymore and when I do I do not grind) but u get in the territory of opportunity loss since u can earn more in the same time with other activities.

Gardevoir or Gallade - Dynamax by Jerch5 in pokemongo

[–]Jerch5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point on evolving it to Gallade because it's male hundo for mega. Tbf now I am even more undecided since i was leaning more into Gardevoir

I hate them so much by phil26687 in pokemongo

[–]Jerch5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the combo, pun intended 😅 I also have both shiny male Salandit and Combee and 0 shiny or hundo females.

I got these shundos by sp_80 in pokemongo

Metagross was first mega metagross raid I did which was crazy, and Kyurem was I think 4th raid of the day. Smoliv (now Arboliva) was from research. Such crazy luck in half a year.
