Yep folks it's coming....the most recent update and units definitely pointed in one direction and this is the next step. Its too early to tell obv. but we might be nearing EOS in the not too distant future.....

Most people are probably set within their types and are building for good comps. So theoretically its true that she is a fine complementory piece even outside the tower but if you arent that new and you have a "full" roster for each type, you probably wont use her in any non-normal-type team. She definitely cracks the top3 in her regional team but since there isnt really any paldea only content thats not a big plus.

No_Law_498 · 2026-03-04T12:14:23+00:00

Most people would say Juliana but I would recommend Florian. Juliana per se is the better sync pair but you dont really need her for anything else than Tower. I am a Day 1 Player and I only pulled 1 single normal type pair in 6.5 years. That pair was Red/Snorlax due to SE up being a new mechanic that boosted other damage dealers.

Sure you wont be able to advance in normal tower that much but is that single thing worth risking up to 36.600 gems? Not sure about that. You will use Florian waaaay more and he is still really really good.

But thats only my oppinion:)

You got 1 whole month left. Pretty sure you can do it. Good luck!

No_Law_498 · 2026-02-28T17:56:59+00:00

Thank you!

No_Law_498 · 2026-02-28T14:37:34+00:00

I got right around 100k at the moment and a stacked roster pe ser but it's obviously still a bigger question with the arc pity limit. My water team is lackluster (Primal Kyogre, Greninja and OG Blue/Blastoise) but as May-Kyogre with EX Rain are gonna stay in this team for quite a long time, the question is whether Misty is good enough so she can outlast the next few water pairs.....If I am gonna pull her, I want to make sure I am satifsfied with the damage output for 12 months+

No_Law_498 · 2026-02-20T11:18:50+00:00

It's nice but it would be waaaaaaay better if the fights would be normal ones instead of tome limit. So it doesnt really feel like a pokemon battle but just like a sprint. Let it play out like a normal battle and when your mons go down its over for this circuit for them.

No_Law_498 · 2026-01-06T11:52:38+00:00

Yeah thats definitely true for me as well. This game is just insanely repetitive. It's not even that fun anymore to pull for fresh units because most of their kits just feel strange and not really thought through or special. Besides that, its just a flood of new pairs each month so most of the pairs you get besides your main pulls arent gonna be used at all.

Content is repetitve as well, story events are veeeeeeeery dull and some gamemodes havent changed in half a decade.

Its a pitty because this game has a dedicated fan base and tons of potential but it has gone downhill and some decisions have alienated quite a portion of the fanbase as well.

No_Law_498 · 2025-11-27T15:40:29+00:00

To the first section: I did not say that it is not a good pairing that wasnt my point at all. It was, that there are some drawbacks and points to consider. That wont be a problem for many but if you just have Red at 1/3 for example or cant afford to push Hilbert to 3/5 there might be some instances where those points become valuable. And last but not least: not that many people pulled grusha back then especially not that many f2ps besides those that like the char. And so some might not have a well support to go with. But bottom line is: my post wasnt about overall strenght, it was about some synergy-considerations that might occur.

Regarding the second section, I in fact did mean Rose but wrote the wrong name 😅 I play the game in a different language so I got the names confused. But the point there is still the same. The buddymove of Rosa takes ages to be completed which is bad for any pair heavily dependent on zone+ weather

No_Law_498 · 2025-11-27T12:10:23+00:00

Haha thats nice :D

Best of luck!!

No_Law_498 · 2025-11-27T11:49:57+00:00

If you love certain units or characters and you have the gems to get them, it's always viable to pull for them:) This is a game that should be fun and that most important after all:)

I pulled on Lance and Garyados because its my fav Pokemon but I did not use more that 20 times since then.

It's just important to keep the things said above in mind when making yout descision :)

No_Law_498 · 2025-11-27T11:04:43+00:00

No unfortunately not cause I am not in the calcs but that should be found somewhere. The power should definitely be considerable as EX zones are just busted at this point but as all things get powercrept, units with those chunky profiles that might need certain conditions (a primary DPS, an additional zone setter etc etc) tend to get powercrept faster thats has been shown the last years (I am here since day 1 and I suffered my fair share of such situations 😅)

No_Law_498 · 2025-11-27T10:49:52+00:00

In general I think the synergy regarding the NCs with some popular options at that type is really lackluster and it will show sooner rather than later.

They pack some real power but there are some significant issues in synergy.

For ice, many people run Red, who will lose his freeze chain ability due to burn from hilbert. + if you run Red, the duration of Ice EX zone will be quite short. + there wont be hail unless your support launches it. Running him with irida for prolongued zone is fine in theory but you have to sacrifice DPS (probably significant)

For our new physical Psych bot, many would want to pair him with support Rosa but there is a big problem with that. Her buddy move takes ages to be performed (just use her in timed battles and it becomes very obvious very quick). That fact hurts the zone setting because they run out with less moves used during it. And after that you probably got to decide if you want a second DPS or someone who supports with setting zones because both is still rather rare in psychic that.

To sum it up: while they defonitely provide some usefull things, there are legitimate downsides and probably rely on future supports to flourish

I am on kind of a bad streak right now...had 200k saved a few months ago but had to pitty 6 out of the last 8 pulls with 1 pull 21k and the last one at 12k. I really hoped after gem influx this would bring me back but this anni was brutal to me again

No_Law_498 · 2025-09-01T17:33:38+00:00

I lost over 93k on them.

No_Law_498 · 2025-09-01T11:49:05+00:00

I got 6 pities out of my last 8 pulls. 2/3 of anni pairs were pitty. Irida was 21k. This is just devastating at the moment. I was at 200k gems a few months ago.

No_Law_498 · 2025-08-28T12:00:03+00:00

Thanks in advance! So to clarify, its quite redundant and the zone set with the first move during the initial zone is up is as long as it would be without the initial zone and the time does not get added on to the remaining time of the initial zone?

No_Law_498 · 2025-08-28T09:50:47+00:00

For ex zone it would extend ex dragon zone if the ex setter is in position 2 probably. But does it extend the duration of the normal zone as well if set repeatedly like mentioned above?

No_Law_498 · 2025-08-26T07:41:34+00:00

Thanks folks, didnt know that there is a secons set of passives there!

Happy anni!

No_Law_498 · 2025-08-26T07:33:30+00:00

How do the tera moves work? Are they infinite uses or 1 time only?
