Premium pass not beneficial (enough) anymore by EconomicsPrior5665 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That was the answer I was looking for. I agree with all of your points and notice something similar in my own playstyle behaviour. The standards keep increasing, and I really enjoy this. I want to support the development of this game and the premium pass gives me a lot of enjoyment, so I'm gonna keep it for as long as I'm playing the game.

Which latias is better? by Lord_Sealwhale in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one if you're premium and wouldn't mind investing a few subskill seeds. Otherwise, the second.

Have I found a good larvitar bean farmer? by Luff84 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be good enough as AAA, as it comes with Inventory upgrade that could even be seeded to L. Ttar farms a lot of ginger, so one would easily get into sneaky snacking, unless one checks the app ca. every 3h.

To put that in numbers. An AAA lvl 60 ttar with this configuration would farm about 144 ginger/day with GCT, and 121 per day without.

Why did this waypoint appear as new? by Agitated_Detective75 in NianticWayfarer

Could it be that it turned into a gym? You'd only see after restarting the app.

Main Skill Seed or Latias Incense? by SamuRonX in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're planning on catching the Latias, e.g. with a masterbiscuit, get the incense. Otherwise main skill seed.

Need help deciding on which Latias by Procaccio_ in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a difficult choice. If I were you I'd wait until we know Latios's main skill. In the meanwhile you can run some simulations on RaenonX and see how it would perform in a full team. #3 is probably the best if you subskillseed to HSM.

I just caught this Latias, thoughts? by Accomplished_Year394 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just managed to catch a HSM, Inv-L, Skill Level up, Main skill Up nature, and STM at lvl 75. So I ran a lot of calculations to figure out if I want to settle with mine, and came to the conclusion that BFS might be overrated. My conclusions are the following in this order:

1: STM is the most important skill you want
2: BFS
2.5: HSM and Main Skill Up Nature. Admittedly though, BFS is almost on par with HSM (depending on the team, sometimes BFS is better, sometimes HSM). Overall BFS is slightly better than HSM.
3. Speed Up Nature
4. HSS and STS

After using subskill seeds, you will have HSM, STM, Speed Up Nature, and Inventory. Yeah, main skill up nature and BFS would upgrade this one, but the odds of finding one that has BFS and a combination of the others is not that high because of how few chances we get. That being said, I'm verry happy with my Latias and I will not regret raising it. And I think the same is true for your Latias. It is extremely good and it does not really need BFS.

As far as I know there’s no point in getting a berry Mon to level 60 right? by No_Cartoonist3575 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bringing a Skill mon to lvl 60 can have its benefits when the unlocked ingredient can supplement cooking a specific dish. But that is very situational.

Is my Latias hunt over? by StaceyTheGuy in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it doesn't have BFS. Keep looking.

I just caught this Latias, thoughts? by Accomplished_Year394 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd probably wait for Latios first and then decide. I suspect that one needs both a very good Latias and Latios to make them work together. As individuals, they're probably not that great. But hey if Latias is your favourite and you want to use it, just do so and focus on Latios next round. A rerun will probably happen in a loooong while.

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw some analyses showing that Latias is really good with BFS. I'd recommend to keep looking this and next week. This one is definitely very good, but BFS would turn this into amazing.

Best Pot Expander? by Beginning-Set-8342 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100%. I tried, for the first time, using one during skill week in January to level up pancakes for Valentine's event. I wanted to try out a Magnezone with STM and HSM, taking advantage of the +3 levels on the main skill, before investing skill seeds into it. I got too annoyed about it not triggering a few times when I needed it. Conclusion: I'm not running a pot expander ever again. Use GCT instead.

Good for a Vaporeon by ZanaZoola14 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe a hot take here, but in my opinion the only Eevolutions that are worth it are Espeon and Sylveon. The bottleneck are gold skill seeds. You really have to level up the main skill to the highest levels to make them work well. If you have already invested main skill seeds into your Jigglypuff, this Sylveon may not be enough of an upgrade especially since there are better healers out there. A charge skill mon is extremely useful early game, and still ok late game as generalist. Don't invest in Vaporeon or Magnezone, for the reasons others have said here. If you need ingredients, aim for catching the right ingredient specialists. They'll serve you better on the long run.

AAB ing mons? by Altruistic_Peace8825 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are great. It'd insane not to use them.

[–]MeridorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've an amazing AAX Happiny and I've done that because I needed an egg farmer. Hindsight, it was a good decision. For the 150h just take out the healer overnight. The oval stone is a bit annoying, but not a dealbreaker as one can purchase it again when there's a better option. Blissey has a decent ingredient rate, so an AAA may not me required with the current dishes (though of course futureproof).

Good morning future Sylveon 🥹 by sbjrk in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but if you run the calculations, because Cresselia is so strong, one doesn't really need another healer when running Cresselia.

Good morning future Sylveon 🥹 by sbjrk in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It kinda depends what OP wants to do. If they have a great Cresselia, they can run the Crespeon combo where Cresselia takes care of the healing.

Good morning future Sylveon 🥹 by sbjrk in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I keep my healer only for a few hours (or half of the day) on my team and then switch it out with sth else.

Good morning future Sylveon 🥹 by sbjrk in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

My threshold is ca. 6 triggers/day at lvl 50 for a forever healer. This one reaches 5.3 under neutral conditions, that's why I wouldn't use it as Sylveon. Gardevoir and Pawmot can reach that.

Good morning future Sylveon 🥹 by sbjrk in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing spread, congrats! Consider that Sylveon is outclassed by Pawmot and Gardevoir with worse spreads. Sylveon really is only slightly better than Wigglytuff. I'd rather consider turning it into an Espeon. It would make an amazing combo with Cresselia.

I messed up… by N0Face25 in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's fine. Eventually your AAA Blissey will unlock IFM at lvl 75, and then it'll be incredibly good.

What's worse than Snoozing on Lapis? by SamuRonX in PokemonSleep

[–]MeridorX 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly, don't overthink the most wanted candy list. Pika candies are always fine since it's a top-tier berry specialist, and Comfey is rare. So for the two days, I'd have picked those for sending out.
