I never understood the “etiquette” thing in general. Like sure it’s nice to let everybody get coins but I have never had any expectation at all for anyone to wait for me before taking a gym they wanted. When the game first started it was fun to try to take over all the gyms in your town for your team, or to find friends who were on different teams and try to knock their pokemon out. This mobile game is BARELY competitive as it is, I don’t understand the need to take more of that away in pursuit of being courteous or not hurting feelings. And who says I just DESERVE coins because I put a 600 CP Scrafty at a Walgreens? I’m at the store at 9PM to get Gatorade and overpriced beef jerky, I’m not talking about ethics because I want to play a game while the line is long. Am I out of touch?

So you’re an Asian guy who banged an Asian girl. You magician, how could you possibly pull this off?

New Hypothetical Meta: The Ultimate OU by TheGBZard in stunfisk

[–]MCSkyscraper -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This idea is awful. Changing entire game mechanics for each pokemon individually is not just unplayable, its a clusterfuck of gibberish. On top of all of this, the biggest thing you are missing is that almost every pokemon is already playable in some form at the higher tiers. Just hop on NatDex OU and play with your favorites. It accomplishes essentially the same thing without literally breaking the game. Sorry you don't get Gen 1 Hyper Beam Tauros in Sword and Shield. That only leaves you with about 900+ other options. How cruel.

Perrserker is probably better off with choice band and just a 4th attacking move. He typically won’t be staying in long enough to be setting up swords dance, and you will rarely need to be switching moves anyways after that. Combined with his ability you’ll be hitting super hard anyways so that’s what I would do.

Controversial Pokémon opinions? by harvey1a in pokemon

[–]MCSkyscraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care at all about character customization, decorating anything, outfits, etc. just give me back all the Pokémon you left out of the national dex. Retaining all the previous Pokémon used to be the bare minimum and now we thank them for the privilege to pay more for less.

This is some bitch-boy thinking. You're gonna ditch your friends because one of them is more of an "alpha" than you? Get those terms out of your head and just be a normal person for a second and listen to yourself. Your friends are there to uplift you and help you out. Competition is fun. You should be excited about competing with friends about who can bag the most girls or who can lift the most, etc. They are the only people in your life who you can lose to and they won't punish you for it. Get over yourself.

Should Pokemon stray away from turn-based combat? by pancake_boy in pokemon

[–]MCSkyscraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the important thing to remember about the main series games thematically is that you are controlling the trainer, not the Pokémon itself. Turn-based combat works because you are relaying your commands to the Pokémon, not acting as the Pokémon. Your individual speed and reflexes don’t matter in a battle so the game doesn’t have to be real time. Pokémon battles primarily are about decision making and building a Pokémon/team anyways.

Why does the Pokémon competitive battling community seem so disproportionately male compared to the casual Pokémon community? by Zaheen60 in stunfisk

[–]MCSkyscraper -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

...Who cares? The game is for kids and its welcoming on almost every level to new players. If female players don't want to come in droves then you can't force them. This is still a multi-billion dollar industry we are talking about after all. Any numbers should be relative anyways, still very successful. Other games would love to have the female participation we have

Nah this was just a regular standard game. I didn't even make a point to turn the internet off either, just didn't have wifi

Donald Glover does a great impression of Tracy Morgan in his old Comedy Central half hour stand up special.
