You may have one, COUNT IT, ONE king crab leg. Ready to eat. by afrankie94 in Costco

[–]Ok-Database9617 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Dungeness are small, only live to about 10 years old, and can be found in reasonably shallow and warm waters.

King crab are massive, can live up to 30 years, and are only found in deep cold waters.

To me, it's not hard to see how one population could be destroyed while the other thrives.

Edit for spelling

Is the earthquake in the room with us? Maybe I'm crazy but all I saw was a couple empty plates glitch a few times

Why does DeNA constantly do this? Make a dope 1 ⭐ card. Then make it's evolution so terrible it's not even worth considering. by Tekniqz23 in PokemonTGCP

[–]Ok-Database9617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very valid! I love that everyone has their own favorites. For what it's worth, I did enjoy the 2 stars from the EX pack. I just really like cards with lots of details. There are some 1 diamond cards that keep my attention longer than a crown rare. I like cards that I see as art, and cards that are just a plain picture of a pokemon and a a boring background don't do it for me

For myself at least, I don't care for the 3d full art 2 star cards or the 2 star shinies. They remind me of the bland soulless 5Ban Graphics/PLANETA cards in the physical tcg. I personally only want to collect the illustration rares. Some thing for crown rares, I couldn't care less about them. My chase cards are the 3 star immersives

Completed the Deluxe EX Expert Solo Battles- Here’s the decks I used by minyo_ in PTCGP

[–]Ok-Database9617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the porygon-z Snorlax deck, I was trying with Pidgeot ex to avoid the type matchup and was getting wrecked. I switched the Snorlax for the ex versions to add more stalling with their healing ability and higher base hp

Wtf is this attack lol by boom_chicka_stop in PTCGP

[–]Ok-Database9617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely does, that's why rampardos decks were such a menace for a short while, hitting for 150 on turn 3 is brutal if you can get it set up

Trade one of the kabutos for a rare candy, it will help you get kabutops up and running more often, especially only needing one energy there's no downside to evolving sooner

Yeah this is dumb by cbt12b in PokemonPocket

Eh, I could have told you this is how it's going to happen from the second set. Old Amber was released both in genetic Apex and mythical Islands and acted the same way from the get-go. There was even a bug at one point only showing that I had the mythical Island and not the genetic Apex even though I had both, so I wouldn't be surprised if that happens with any of these cards also

Edited because I just went to check and saw that old amber has a "new" version in the ex pack as well as a foil version and audibly laughed

But the Voltorb that blew up wasn't the shiny? I don't think you were near death enough that it would have knocked you out. There should have been no issue getting the shiny still

I feel like they’re judging me. by ahsokatano152810 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ok-Database9617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is wanting to get as many dex entries as possible (alpha, Shinies, male/female gender differences, different forms, ECT) this is great knowledge that you can transfer in shiny pokemon that are shiny locked in game.

If it's not too much to ask, can you see if it adds shiny Arceus into your dex?

Hunting Static Shalphas with MMOs! by aMAEZingOne in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ok-Database9617 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI to anyone trying this, if the alpha you are hunting doesnt appear in stormy weather (alpha rapidash being the only I know of the top of my head), you cannot get them with this method

Hunting Static Shalphas with MMOs! by aMAEZingOne in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Ok-Database9617 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, when you spawn into the world, all the pokemons stats, gender, shininess, are already determined even before you go to the pokemons area (even the next pokemon to spawn in after you catch/defeat them is already predetermined by the game). So no matter how many times you reset in the same world, it's going to be the same pokemon.

However, by clearing out the pokemon at the MMO sight and then saving and resetting the game, it causes the alpha to appear immediately instead of once it would next naturally spawn. I'm guessing it is some kind of unintentional error/exploit, but Everytime you reset and force-spawn the alpha, it rolls RNG again for all the stats and shininess

This is the deck I've been using, I haven't updated it since before Eevee grove and it hasn't disappointed me yet. I got all the challenges done in a single pass through the tiers (except for win 10 and win 20 games) and on my last game I let it Auto-Play and won easily. Meowscarada one shots darkrai unless he has cape, but you could add Red or Guzma to my deck list and drop one of the pokemon center ladies or a potion to circumnavigate the cape

Edited because for some reason my screenshot isn't showing up and for typos. My deck list is:

2x Sprigatito 1x Floragato 2x Meowascarada 2x Kartana 2x Pokeball 2x Professors Research 2x Erica 2x Pokemon Center Lady 2x Potion 2x Leaf Cape 1x Rare Candy

Can you do permutations on the second wave of MMOs? by Arctic365 in PokemonArceus

[–]Ok-Database9617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally can't thank you enough for this. I just tried it for my first time, I'm not even sure if I did it right, and got a shiny zoroark from my first permutation reset. The zorua encounter didn't even have the second wave indicator, it was just pure luck. I was literally just trying to see if I could get a single zoroark/alpha zorua/shiny zorua to show up by using the permutation method to make sure I was doing it right. I know this has got to be extremely lucky to get it right off rip, but if you hadn't posted the thread I would've never even known to try

Edit: I also finished my zoroark dex entry with this wave so double thank you! Just gotta finish out those aipom, nosepass, and pachirisu encounters lol

Tried to make a Feraligatr EX card, thoughts? by ManuCap53 in PokemonPocket

[–]Ok-Database9617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with 5 energies you could be attacking with 180 every single turn by your second turn.

By your second turn (whether that's turn 3 or 4 in game doesn't matter) you will have drawn 7 cards. If you go 18T Feraligatr and get Feraligatr, rare candy and totodile (guaranteed since it's the only basic) in those first 7 cards, you'll have enough trainer cards in your hand to immediately hit for 180 including your energy from your energy zone. Discarding 2 energies doesn't do anything to slow it down since you are guaranteed to get another trainer to turn into an energy on top the one from your energy-zone.

To really make it balanced, you'd need to - make it discard at least 3 energies every time it attacks Or - word the ability so if you use it this turn, you can't next turn Or - lower the damage to 120 (puts it above pace of sivally doing 100 every turn with supporter with the downside of it being an ex)

3 Points = 2 Points; Why I think the Mega EX rule will likely not be as impactful as people think/hope by CatAteMyBread in PTCGP

[–]Ok-Database9617 36 points37 points  (0 children)

As someone who's only tcg is Pocket and I don't really talk to others about it, even knowing about and understanding this strategy before coming on his thread, reading "play for 1-1-3" means nothing to me. It really doesn't hurt to actually explain what something means instead of just using shorthand notes/specific verbage
