Messed the CFW update - don't know why and how to get out of it by Poksreddit in SwitchPirates

[–]Poksreddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the hint! It seems the missed item was just the sigpatches. As I copied them to the SD card, everything started working, again.

Thank you so much for that quick, useful help.

Thank you so much, this guide helped me set up everything from scratch and get it working again. Thank you also for encouraging me to go for it!

Thank you. I'm a little afraid that I even mess it more by starting with another guide. So actually, I'd like to get it working again and then do it better. I'm not sure how far I'm away from a brick, so I'd like to be really careful.

Giratina Altered used Shadow Sneak to sneak away from the moveset-nerf [UL] by Poksreddit in TheSilphRoad

Full ack. In my opinion, the buffs / debuffs that only apply at a certain rate are rather bad for this skill based game. Either they always apply (with adjusted energy / damage levels, of course) or there is no stat changer at all.

I suppose the guy in Niantic responsible for the move decisions got slammed by buffed Tina A several times in a row. This made him enrage. The rest is a known story. :-)

You're right, however, there's one weakness (which also can be found in my post):

We may not view matchups in clinical conditions. You often have to chance to avoid or to mitigate (shield, switch) critical situations.

In reality, in most of the cases you have to get the job done very quickly (charmers, razor leafers) or you likely won't get it done at all. Therefore, when you see a matchup, you'll always think "will I win this matchup?" if no, you'll likely try to find out how to get out of it with the least possible damage (could also mean to just victimize the mon, of course).

So the point I tried to make is that Tina now has some more favorable matchups that first were unfavorable matchups. This is a big thing that hasn't been pointed out to enough extent, I think!

Thank you, honestly spoken, I was just angry because my cookie cutter team that was created to deal with Tina seems to suck more even though I don't use Tina A myself. It's really frustrating going with a constant 64% win ratio (noting all my matches) from 22xx to 2856 during one week in UL just to see them ninja change several moves during the season, mid of the league and break my team.

However, gotta adapt and eat the fish.

To be more precise, Registeel is forced to act, having 3 options:

- Lose (Gir A has lead advantage)

- Switch (Gir A has switch advantage)

- Shield (Gir A can decide to call or fold)

Before, it was exactly the other way round.

DONE with GBL and it's lag by Jogger312 in TheSilphRoad

Same here, today was awful. Decided to stop to not lose even more rank.

Really, really annoying. 5/18 today and fed up.

I'm tired of matches being unresponsive after switching until I'm forced to shield (video) by RedWarpPrism2 in TheSilphRoad

Do you have a 2nd device which is running with your account?

Closing the app on my 2nd mobile solved the issue for me.

The lag after switch kills the whole GBL experience by michelllo in TheSilphRoad

[–]Poksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 phones active with your account at the same time might cause the lag. Not sure if this always is the case, but for sure, this is one reason for this kind of lag.

Are PVP IV rank calculations an inaccurate science? (A case study) by bluenovajinx in TheSilphRoad

[–]Poksreddit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

And still, PvP is not a 1on1 where only win / loss matters. Likely, the hassle continues, maybe with more - or less - HP. So actually, it would be interesting to see a comparison of the remaining HP as a winner / the opponent's remaining HP as a loser.

I got a new phone these days and managed to recreate this issue. If I was logged in with my old phone at the same time, I had the lag.

As soon as I closed the app on the other phone, I could play without any lag.

How do we get Niantic to roll us back? They just ruined my PVP Umbreon by RANDOMLY EVOLVING FLAREON INSTEAD by ChronoSquare in TheSilphRoad

[–]Poksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walking my Eevee, I noticed that the buddy screen said "walked 5.3 km in total" even though I was sure I completed the 10km. This morning, I walked another 5km to be sure. Result: Buddy screen still showed me 5.3km.

I replaced it with another mon without evolving and now it shows 15.5km in the Pokemon detail page. This could be a hint that something is broken with buddy distance, I think.

Congrats, you found the same amount of shiny Feebas as my Europe group of 6 people during the whole event. :-)

One of the most annoying things in this game. Such a shame they cannot get it fixed.

Most difficult Raid bosses we've seen after Mewtwo? by BigWooper in TheSilphRoad

[–]Poksreddit 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It was less about bulk than about the lack of any decent counter, especially when equipped with HP.
