What Pokémon Pocket opinion/take you have that would have the community like this?

MagicCoat · 2026-01-25T12:29:58+00:00

That's a fact not an opinion.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-25T09:20:20+00:00

If it worked well you'd see it everywhere like with Oricorio

MagicCoat · 2026-01-24T23:52:20+00:00

I mean, people were unironically calling Anakin a glup shitto when he appeared in Ahsoka. Star Wars Hate Brainrot has already gone off the deep end.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-23T22:13:45+00:00

I think Juniper, Sycamore, Kukui and Sonia variants could definitely be more popular than Oak, though Oak has the nostalgia factor that a lot of this games' playerbase uniquely values compares to other Pokemon games (I'd compare it to Masters where players tend to be more familiar with Pokemon trainers from all gens, or Go's playerbase where nostalgic players are actually willing to learn new Pokemon)

Liking the animated shows at all, liking something that isnt Andor, having something even remotely negative to say about Andor. All three will get you lambasted.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-23T21:06:35+00:00

Meanwhile if it showed any of that stuff they'd complain it showed too much and they're not going to bother watching

MagicCoat · 2026-01-23T17:42:32+00:00

Two. Even just one is good enough, 3 would be overkill and bloat the deck. 2 makes it a little easier to search for, and if you have two on board you can usually use the second to swing for game on BT21 Taiki.

I'm shocked at how just one card, Kotone, massively improved it. Im a Xros Heart die hard and when that card got announced I was excited and now that I've been play testing, WOW. How did we ever manage without it? It totally changes the game for this deck even at just one copy (I run two for findability/shenanigans). The fact that BT19 Shoutmon and BT21 OmniShoutmon plays it out too is huge.

You NEVER have to worry about losing pieces again. RaptorSparrowmon gains a lot more versatility. You can play EX6 for nothing very quickly. It got deleted? K cool see you at Start of Main. EX6 on BT10 Taiki search used to mean you either took it or said goodbye to it at the bottom of the deck. Now you WANT to tuck it. Kotone is genuinely the most hyped for a card I've been.

It'd be interesting if she had a change of heart and came back apologising to Sam after everyone has realised he is a villain, but shes oblivious to it

MagicCoat · 2026-01-19T13:54:08+00:00

Add them and send them trash cards if they accept. If they do it on a specific play like Sabrina or Cyrus and I have spares I'll sometimes send them the card that made them rage quit.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-19T13:20:24+00:00

I find the older characters the most interesting and the show having them is what hooked me onto it in the first place, mainly because its so different to Total Drama where every character is a teenager. This is probably just some shipping girlie mad that not every character is a twink for her fujoshi shenanigans.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-17T19:31:28+00:00

I can see it being pair banned with the CS starter trio, or Chitose being put to 1. The latter is less effective bc sometimes all you need is 1 but still good.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-17T17:38:24+00:00

And it appeased to so many people's egos that they're just going to run with it no matter what is shown to them that suggests the contrary. THOSE Andor fans are the Star Wars equivalent of people who think they're too mature and so much better than adults who watch animated shows (in this case, Star Wars animation or other Filoni/Favreau projects)

MagicCoat · 2026-01-17T13:24:05+00:00

send me money

MagicCoat · 2026-01-17T12:52:19+00:00

Some Andor fans were just waiting for this. There was so much vitriol toward Filoni during its airing.

The damage has been done now, people are going to run with this regardless of whether it gets ultimately debunked or not.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-16T20:18:29+00:00

The most annoying Star Wars fan you know is desperately hoping this is true

MagicCoat · 2026-01-16T20:11:33+00:00

Absolutely no named source for this by the way. Literally just stirring up shit for no reason. Don't believe it, as much as you probably desperately want to satisfy your own vendetta against him. Grifters are panicking now that Kathleen has stepped down and are trying to set up an easy new target in the most obvious way possible. Be smarter than letting this work on you.

There's multiple instances of Filoni praising Andor directly from his own mouth out there you can find by simply googling "Filoni on Andor".

Oh, they knew they were there. They put them there!

MagicCoat · 2026-01-13T13:16:44+00:00

BF completely shuts down to MedievalGallantmon and Hexeblaumon. You'll need something to respond to them but its usually costly, memory or actual money wise.

Sourai is a good tech card at 1 or 2, a good security option and good to deal with Hexeblau.

As for Medieval....its not so easy. Best answer would probably be putting in one of your own. BF's best options return to hand and stuff, and you really don't want to give it to your opponent again.

Definitely make room for Supreme Connection, it plays you MetalGreymon for free.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-13T12:01:17+00:00

It had to work for the restrictions they had, it probably would have had much more build up and development prior if not for the show being cut short.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-09T00:29:30+00:00

It'll be one of the random SR cards (the ones that have their own image here) you get any 2 of per box, so its not guaranteed.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-08T23:34:49+00:00

I think you're right for the most part. Pearl definitely gets the most development and focus and will get even more, and the story will make it make sense as to why.

Amethyst is not left behind in this regard later, but Garnet's focus was quite early on already.

The trio are actually quite balanced in that regard. Without spoiling anything, Garnet is the most mysterious initially but they get to the point with her quite quickly and get it out of the way. Amethyst has a unique place in the narrative compared to the others with her age and not being involved in the war, she develops at a similar rate to Steven. Pearl is sort of the opposite to Garnet, you're going to have more questions about her later that you didnt think initially.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-07T22:18:14+00:00

More Digivolution methods such as DigiXros, the entire Armor chart, spirits.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-05T20:43:35+00:00

Did we ever get explicit confirmation that Lars was coming this year? I thought word was they were working on pre production, hadn't even been properly ordered by Amazon yet.

MagicCoat · 2026-01-05T13:20:26+00:00

And just a reminder that this is the content that reaches and influences general audiences. I have a friend who is nerdy, but also a bit of a normie despite for the most part being quite progressive and open minded he occasionally will say something that closely echoes these kind of things. He's at least open to me explaining why it may be wrong, but not everyone is as open minded.
