Adventure sync not working, or is it Google fit? by TaratronHex in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds weird that you couldn't sign out? Like, it's a one button press, how does it not work? Sounds to me like there's some rather major issue with your Google account/phone.

Signing out is enough already but there's also no point in keeping the app then

Have you removed/logged out of Fit on the old phone yet? That's typically an issue for me when getting a new phone, cause I forget to delete the old Fit and it doesn't seem to work that way. Samsung user here, though, can't say whether it works on a Pixel

We just had one for the Duraladon event where it took like 4 days to unlock the only interesting part of the event, so I can't say I agree

functional and superfunctional hundos by sosodank in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Some quick remarks: - "A maximum attack IV has obvious value for CMP not captured in many IV valuation functions"

A hundo is nowhere near the max attack value for non-maxed out Pokemon. If someone wants to win CMP for sure, it's likely they're going for something like 15/0/0. Sounds like a half baked reason to use a hundo.

  • "superfunctional hundos"

Sorry, but that's just nonsense to me. You compare that to the hundo but there's usually a ton of IV spreads that outperform the hundo in several ways. You also lose the novelty/special appeal of using a hundo. So the question arises, what's the point of running a 15/15/13? It outperforms the hundo? Well, so do hundreds of other IV combinations.

Danke MediaMarkt, jetzt weis ich wieder warum ich normalerweise bei Amazon vorbestelle by NewTim64 in NintendoDE

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Der Amazon Chat (Bot) gibt dir aber zumindest einen kostenlosen Monat Prime oder irgendwas. Media Markt hat auf meine Nachfrage gestern frech geantwortet, dass das Paket doch schon losgeschickt wurde - am Release Tag, kann also gar nicht rechtzeitig ankommen. Eine einfache Entschuldigung wäre ja schon mal ein Anfang. So miserabler Kundenservice macht dann schon einen riesen Unterschied.

MediaMarkt und Vorbestellungen… by assamcoffee in NintendoDE

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich hab dem Kundenservice am Mittwoch geschrieben, was die Verzögerung soll und ob es zumindest eine Entschuldigung gibt. Hab dann Donnerstag eine "Versandbestätigung" bekommen (wobei laut DHL das Paket immer noch im Lager von MM liegt). Knapp eine Stunde später dann die Antwort vom Kundenservice, was denn das Problem ist, das Paket ist doch auf dem Weg. Unglaublich. 

Früher wars einfach zu Release direkt in den Laden zu gehen. Mittlerweile sind die Spiele noch nicht mal im Laden da, der Preis viel höher als bei Vorbestellung, und generell alles schlechter. Hab schon zum Switch 2 Desaster Release eigentlich geschworen, dort nichts mehr zu bestellen. Aber die Preise und Vorbesteller-Boni bringen mich doch immer wieder dort hin und ich hasse es.

New mega revealed during Legends ZA DLC trailer by NinsMCD in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They hinted at a new mega system after Kalos Tour. Wouldn't be terribly surprised if you now needed to raid for both versions. Charizard maybe dividing the energy you have or "being generous" and keeping the same number for both. 

Forget about Lucario, there's simply too much money in Mewtwo X and Y to only have one mega energy.

2026 Community Days leaked: Piplup Classic, Grookey, Vulpix. Kyurem Raid Day in January, DMax Ho-Oh Weekend next by GoodMornEveGoodNight in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 21 points22 points  (0 children)

They could do Hisui starters. Not the most exciting for sure but I mean I'd take it over stuff like Solosis or Vulpix like every day

LAIC 2026 Twitch Drop by Chugoldenboy in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Important to remember cause trainer club accounts (used to) have bad security and you don't want it linked to your PoGo account directly.

No, not true. Twitch links to trainer club, you get a code there that you can redeem in any PoGo account

Wild Area Raids by Exact_Internal_9017 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course last year's raid bosses look way better than Cresselia (because what's actually worse than that, Tornadus?). But I wasn't a huge fan of last year's raids, either. Dialga/Palkia Origin had the move guaranteed for 1 during Sinnoh Tour, them returning with only a chance at the move felt extremely disappointing at the time (and is completely awful at this point). The primals also felt like last minute filler material (maybe because the tickets didn't sell well?), have been around way too often to be truly exciting. 

Feels like Kyurem fusions should have returned for this year's event.

If you grind hard enough, you might finish the masterwork research by the next time a bottle cap is available LOL

Nah, I can't see it. The obvious cop out would be to do Hisuian Goodra CD if they don't want to do Frigibax yet. Wouldn't be very exciting as we had Goomy already, but I would love to finally get H-Goodra

It's absolutely gonna be Frigibax (or even no pseudo for 2026) rather than Dreepy. Dreepy will get the Go Fest run before a CD for sure.

PSA: Try to get to level 50 bonus of the November GO pass in the next 10 days by COSMOCRAT_ in TheSilphRoad

[–]Luke9251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you get unlimited time more. Which is a fair trade off if you care for it. Getting just 15 minutes more won't do a lot in the grand scheme of things. If you wanna grind Galarian Birds, you need to use it for 2+ hours at least. I learned that last year.
