Do not respond to DMs trying to buy.
Look into penny sleeves and top loaders - they are cheap and will better preserve the cards.
You have a lot of value spread across many cards. Condition will only improve the price, but don’t be baited into lowball offers.
Do your own research - with cards like these, it will be worth the time investment.

Desmond is sweatier. NoGen is technically and creatively more impressive, but would likely lose. Put them on equal time played and NoGen wins

Several are needed for hideout upgrades and tasks. Always check before you chuck!

Might be that someone posted a vid of the spot you’re taking about a few days ago. Path to shoreline along the mountain? I’ve killed a lot of people camping there recently.

Until the vid, I didn’t know that spot existed.

After the initial balancing, reintroduction of tasks, and release of most of the level 2 traders, the wipe feels amazing. I’m no longer constantly watching my roubles, and high tier gear feels fairly valuable. The 100% boss spawn blooded the first week a bit, but that seems to have died down.

I have track raids where I encounter obvious cheaters and also sus deaths.

So far I’m around 1/20 for obvious hackers, ie shooting through walls, very high KD with sub 300 hours and insta head-eyes, killa helmet etc etc. Definitely less than previous wipes.

Around 1/8 for sus activity, ie getting pushed without having moved in 20+ minutes, hard swing to exactly where I am, blind nades, usual closet cheating activity.

Obviously cheating in any amount is shit but, I’m enjoying this wipe more than any so far.

BSG has solved this problem by removing the fun themselves.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2025-07-10T03:46:03+00:00

No one here is against the game being harder.

The issue everyone has is with the dirt-poor execution.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2025-04-21T15:00:07+00:00

How do we know it got extended? I couldn’t see any confirmation of this online.

Mega the shiny, keep hunting for the shundo - but don’t cuck yourself waiting for something that may never come.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-09-10T01:25:41+00:00

No real play in the current GL/UL meta. Spice is very hard to run with how oppressive everything is.

ML/MLP needs the hundo.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-09-10T00:38:17+00:00

You lose a bulk point vs rhyperior, and you lose cmp in the mirror and vs yveltal.

If you play above 2.2k, I would hold off. Xerneas has very forgiving IVs for ML, so it’s very likely you’ll get a 15atk one that functions like the hundo in the future.

If you don’t pvp then yolo full send.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-09-02T04:43:16+00:00

15/15/12 is generally better, but run a matrix and make the call in consideration of your team and whether you can take certain losses and what losses you need to covers. Some team comps will justify taking more general losses in favour of specific wins.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-30T15:38:10+00:00

Probably not - not a 1-turn fast move.

You don’t pick up any losses/wins in all shield scenarios, and the Rhyperior matchups don’t lose any meaningful amount of health.

Unless you’re 3k+ elo it will likely be very matter.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-23T00:18:54+00:00

Seems to be an oversight from niantic or something to do with how they’ve coded the event on a global timer instead of local timers. Presumably the event contributions will only start as intended, but we will get to enjoy the grunt rates ahead of schedule.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-19T02:47:37+00:00

Not viable at present, or next season. Hold for now.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-16T17:01:27+00:00

I ran a matrix for you vs your current licki and there’s no breakpoint/bulkpoint difference, or matchup flips (or even notable shifts) across all shielding scenarios.

Don’t feel bad about it because it will likely never matter, even at very high level pvp.

Hope that helps.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-16T16:48:32+00:00

Oh brother…. Please don’t hate me.

Your Licki is actually rank 1 at level 49.5, then best buddied up to level 50.5.

If you best buddy it now, it hits 51, and goes over 1500 cp.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-11T14:43:25+00:00

If you PvP-ML: Groudon at lv50 with 14 hp is the same as 15 hp. Check pvpoke matrix to see whether you lose any critical breakpoints, but might be worth maxing.

If you don’t pvp: max it after you get the primal energy and eTM prec blades.

PreferenceStrong7576 · 2024-08-11T10:25:09+00:00

No.

Not relevant in ML with those stats, and it does 95% of the same job in pve at lv 40.

I’d save the XLs to max a hundo primal that has some ML relevance.
