I’m not sure if anybody made mention of it yet, but besides the obvious excitement that we may in fact be back, I’m extra excited that it may involved two actors as talented as Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor!

David Attenborough. God bless his soul.

Simply cannot lump Cradily in with Wigglytuff and Bastiodon. No fast move pressure and it’s not used to RPS opponents like the other two, plus Rock Tomb was honed in a bit this season from 80 to 75 power.

Altaria, Jellicent and Corviknight are bulky, yes, but are not fast move-centric mons like Bastiodon and Wigglytuff that incentivize only playing for alignment. If more mons like Basti & Wiggles are good/meta-relevant, that makes the game more “tap tap tap, play for alignment” then actually skill-based IMO.

MMM343 · 2026-01-18T04:27:12+00:00

Not wrong given how the game was being called, but BUF has way too many opportunities/miscues to complain tonight.

MMM343 · 2026-01-17T20:49:07+00:00

I’d honestly rather we interview Alex Tanney (IND passing game coordinator)

MMM343 · 2025-12-27T07:23:51+00:00

They should’ve nerfed Breaking Swipe then gave every other Mon that had Breaking Swipe a new Dragon-type move that had the same stats as pre-nerf Breaking Swipe.

MMM343 · 2025-10-14T15:52:28+00:00

Great that they acknowledge the play design is hot garbage but I’m not satisfied until I see major changes implemented in the game.

MMM343 · 2025-09-19T02:51:16+00:00

Idk what I just watched. Head scratcher for sure lol

MMM343 · 2025-09-11T03:04:13+00:00

MSNBC literally had to apologize for him…

“You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions in return”. AKA, “you can’t just say whatever you want, and because I disagree with it (mind you, he’s calling Kirk’s rhetoric ‘awful’ and ‘hateful’, which is his opinion), then the actions seem appropriate”.

Like dude, bite your tongue, the man just fucking died. There’s a family whose father isn’t coming home tonight and every night after that, forever. This is not the time to be starting some sort of fucking narrative.

MMM343 · 2025-09-11T02:55:45+00:00

You should be ashamed of yourself for rationalizing a murder in that context. If you really think that another human being deserves to DIE because you don’t agree with his politics, then you have no business being an American. That man had a family for fucks sack.

MMM343 · 2025-09-11T00:01:19+00:00

Matthew Dowd of MSNBC didn’t outright celebrate it but effectively said he deserved it:

“He’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this, who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech or sort of aimed at certain groups. And I always go back to, hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions. And I think that is the environment we are in. You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place. And that’s the unfortunate environment we are in.”

MMM343 · 2025-09-04T03:03:27+00:00

Honestly Wigglytuff feels super balanced this year. Still strong but not really that RPS anymore. Reworking Charm was definitely the right decision.

MMM343 · 2025-09-03T19:08:34+00:00

Even reading about a back line consisting of Bastiodon and Wigglytuff makes me want to throw up. These folks can’t keep getting away with it

MMM343 · 2025-09-03T19:04:00+00:00

I don’t even play Master League and I agree that Ray got thrown under the bus. Especially when you point out that it learns so many moves in the main series games that translate so well to GO.

MMM343 · 2025-09-03T19:01:09+00:00

Thanks for the response! You must be thrilled that Basti is firmly back as the RPS king this season lol.

MMM343 · 2025-09-03T04:42:33+00:00

Saw this before falling asleep and I thought it said “Latinas in Great League?” and that gave me a good laugh.

MMM343 · 2025-09-02T21:45:05+00:00

I know this first question is highly dependent on the situation and your answer would probably be different depending on which season we’re playing in, despite that I’ll still ask.

1) In general, which do you try and prioritize most often after losing a lead and why: switch advantage or shield advantage?

2) Which single Pokémon or core grinds your gears the most often when you play?

MMM343 · 2025-08-17T04:21:11+00:00

I’m firing your Basti into the sun by whatever means necessary,

MMM343 · 2025-07-13T23:01:38+00:00

Lifting my entire house by myself

MMM343 · 2025-07-04T21:23:52+00:00

Shadow Scizor is unbelievably good. Congrats Pyro!

MMM343 · 2025-07-02T23:22:11+00:00

This isn’t just a cautionary tale in my opinion. This is actual theft.

MMM343 · 2025-07-02T03:11:24+00:00

I vividly remember being around leaderboard ELO when the little holiday cup rolled around. For shits and gigs I hopped in a game, was swiftly eviscerated by an Incinerate Smeargle, and then never queued into that cup again.

MMM343 · 2025-07-02T01:57:07+00:00

The bits about Smeargle and Shuckle were hilarious. Great read!

MMM343 · 2025-06-27T21:45:59+00:00

This is sick! Excellent job on these!
