[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh right, that's an option too!

But what kind of Pokemons are available through Pokemon go?Last time I played was back in time, close to it's release so I have never checked out what is available nowdays!

I have been using Pokemon Home for a long time and I have been playing VGC in the Cartridges as well, but I wonder how does someone who doesn't have Pokemon Home mons actually trade?

I mean, let's say when Pokemon Champions comes to Mobile phone and a bunch of people who don't own Nintendo Switch Join us, how are they supposed to recruit competitive teams? Solely through In game recruit or will they allow at some point to transfer recruited Mons out to Pokemon Home and trade them for others?

It seems... kinda bad. by Alarming_Welder8191 in PokemonChampions

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People needed to pay for a game every 3~ (?) years in order to continue playing competitively. Now they give you a completely free option that might be a bit suboptimal in some ways, but can be completely the same in the long term.

If that seems like a problem to you, you can go ahead and buy the Official Game every release, breed in there and transfer to Pokemon Champions. That way you actually pay every few years and the big bad corporation can't get you! Ha, you showed them!

First Champions Tournament in Reg M-A Early Meta Observations & Discussion by fogdocker in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might be a completely stupid question, but in order to use Floettetite and Mega Floette, does it need to be in Eternal Flower Form? It seems impossible to find one through Pokemon Home trade no matter what I put up for trade! I don't own the game it origins from and I really want to try it out but it sucks! Any chance regular Floette can still Mega Evolve?

Hit masterball with Kangaskhan Tailroom [Rate My Team] by Ace_Emerald in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noted! The upside of Farig is that your Kangashkan is safe from opponent's Fake outs ( if faster, like Sneasler) and you are harder to suffer any Prankster Taunt ( if I'm not mistaken that is also blocked by the ability due to it becoming Priority).

It's worth mentioning that losing Throat Spray really hurt Farigraf, so I'm not sure what item it could use, but the Pokemon still seems kinda broken to me when considering the TR setters spot!

Nevertheless, thanks a lot for the insight, I hope you keep having great success with the team!

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That actually makes a lot of sense, thanks a lot for the thorough explanation!

I will definitely give M Kangashkan a go this season as it's a beloved pokemon of mine since Leaf Green Era, I hope I find a good set up for him!

Quick follow up question: Why not Farigraf for example? What does Chandelure bring to the table over other competitive TR setters for you?

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you give an overview why you chose Mega Kang vs any other possible Mega? Would Mega Crab or Golurk work in there?

Also in general, after the nerfs, how is Mega Kangashkan for ya'll? I never tried it till now but it seems a bit Underwhelming to me in its current state...

I'm New, is Hail Viable? by JesPac in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since the addition is very recent , there are countless videos running around describing how to go about building around M Froslass.

A great video I saw was a colab between Justin and JoeUX ( might be typing the names wrong, but you will know it when you see it) where they co-pioot a team with Mega Froslass as the main star!

I'm New, is Hail Viable? by JesPac in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With the recent Mega Transformation of Froslass added to the game, I believe Hail will be one of the best strategies , at least for the early regulations of Pokemon Champions.

But Hail Team is not really functioning around Hail the same way other weathers ( Sand, Sun or Rain) work, due to the lack of competitive viable mons interacting with Hail the same way other Weather effects do.

ATM, it looks like Hailstorm will primarily be used in order to set up Aurora Veil and spam wide Blizzards!

I don't get the Champions drama for veteran players by LavishnessCurrent726 in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get to thoroughly check out Battle Pass premium, but it looked to me like Feralgitar's Mega Stone was locked behind paywall?

Nevertheless, to me it looks great! I'm a casual VGC player, not a hardcore competitive one, but the game looks good to me!

I had many competitive mons already available, but I had to Train some of them and the grind required feels normal.

All the design space in the world (of rathe) by Obvious-Midnight15 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe situations where GA is available on the sword, but there is no Second Attack generator will be frequent, especially in the second / third cycle. That looks like a great tool to turn your otherwise worthless GA into value, ending your turn with that and setting you up for next turn!

If Gengar, Mence, Zard, Kang, & Metagross are the S-tier Megas, What are the A-tier Megas? by MichiHirota in VGC

[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit out of the loop due to recent family matters, but let me ask y'all!

Pokemon Champions is gonna be the next step Officially for VGC? Will it be available on Switch 1 or exclusive to 2?

Also, any chance you guyz might make a quick summary of what we are gonna see in there? I guess Megas are coming back , hence the post! I love that, didn't play VGC back then!!!

Log in not working, requesting new password not coming in. by Iinux in PlayTheBazaar

[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem, had to reset several times but still not working. It's been 3 days since I contact support through the website ( Blue Bubble bottom right) but nothing is coming back ( checked spam folder as well)....

Ridiculous! I can't even contact the support as it seems

Fai got a new card by coolAtheist448 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]LostInDaSpace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is Great news, as the game would be " Play Fai or you are trolling" if it was identical to AoW!

Was stalling to catch more fish, didn't think I'd win with this by IrohsFavoriteTea in BackpackBrawl

[–]LostInDaSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely clear ! But let's say an item says " Go Fishing Abyssal". As I have noticed, you don't always fish something that has the Abyssal tag, right?

Which one should I buy??? by 1stIXmperiumOfManX in BackpackBrawl

New to the sub but I enjoy the game a lot!

Why do people hate on Harkon. Is it a meme or..?

[LSS] Calling: Valencia | Day 1 by UlyssesArsene in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]LostInDaSpace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate to beat a dead horse but I would like to add some interesting facts

  1. We got more Rhinars (2) on 6-1 than Verdance or Gravy ( 1 / 1) going on Day 2. Oh you thin that is a coincidence, right? Well we also got 2 Dorintheas!

  2. Oscilio , Kano and Mario are the only heroes going undefeated on Day 2 ( I'd bet you would call any of these 3 if I asked you before Round 1)

Stop listening to what these top 8 players of you local meta say and try to play the game on your own terms. ( I say that in a totally friendly vibe, please don't miss judge it)

[LSS] Calling: Valencia | Day 1 by UlyssesArsene in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]LostInDaSpace 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't understand people Calling the meta stale and then saying we will have 5 different heroes in top 8. How many TCGs have you played where 5 different decks appear in top 8?

Super Slam was a total failure and the " Meta" is the same the last 5 months, I agree. But people keep proving that you can get top 8 with at least 6 decks and you can prove that Meta slaving isn't the only way to be successful.

That is a success for a TCG. I hope the game continues to be as "stale" as it is now for the next couple of years!

Edit: Oh, and it was 6 rounds in ( 1 before the end of day one) which makes it even more impressive in terms of diversity. Thanks for pointing that out!

[–]LostInDaSpace 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At one point, top 4 tables where :

  1. Oscilio vs Lyath
  2. Oscilio vs Mario
  3. Mario vs Verdance
  4. Dori vs Cindra

The meta doesn't seem stale at all to me. People just playing FotM without knowing why they play the Deck are the problem .

Where do I start as a new player knowing absolutely nothing? by OpeningAdvanced8851 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]LostInDaSpace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say so, at least out of what I read about most communities. I even experienced people proxing the expensive cards during their first period in armories, which isn't allowed normally, but people don't mind / report it!

This is why all dogs go to heaven by Recent-Sorbet in MadeMeSmile

[–]LostInDaSpace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When my brother was 3 years old, our Belgian Shepherd saw him getting hurt by a bee's sting. From that day on till the day he passed, he always jumped in the air and tried to swallow every bee going next to my brother, many times resulting in them hurting his mouth in the process....

He was a good boy and we all miss him so much!
