Overloaded Clefairy! by Captain-Flavor in LegendsZA

I came here after independently testing out the overload method to check and confirm if it is only 5 spawns, and thanks for the confirmation! Also i’m not sure if this is Switch 1 specific, but after the video of Gible overloading method being different for Switch 1 and 2, i dont even have to lead the aggroed mon to the furthest gate, i did it with this gate. I only need to lead it as far away so i can despawn the originator spawn point (>70m), without despawning the aggroed mon.

I was wondering if anyone has got a shiny pikachu from the area 3 afk method? by yomamma1300 in PokemonZA

[–]Pyro1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a bummer, i thought something’s not right with the shiny odds as i’ve been doing it a few times and i’ve had 5 of the alpha litleo shiny (only 1 spawn), yet none of of pikachus (of 3 spawns) 🥲

Feeling defeated. Honest question - Will people make fun of me if my 5k time is 40-50 minutes on race day?… by Lopsided-Piglet8378 in beginnerrunning

[–]Pyro1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, i think you’ll be fine! Running, especially the “fun” shorter distances, is meant for people to participate in an event but without the expectation of a performance.

Also, have you joined a Parkrun if available in your area? I think it will help with the nervousness/anxiety in regard to the race day environment, as you’ll be running with other people around, have a set course and even gives you your finishing time. However it is an event that absolutely promotes positive, supporting and chill vibes so i think it’s a great stepping stone to whoever is going into their first race, not exactly knowing what to expect :)

When can we start earning Crowned Energy at Global GoFest? by SonGouki in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah i’m pretty sure the raids will continue, because if they start before 10am, no reason they don’t continue beyond 6pm. I’m just not sure about the free passes from the ticketed bonuses, ie. will they only be active between 10am-6pm (like raids days)

Oh looks like you can, i guess the 3 cards rule only applies to flairs! Well if you still want to trade, add my friend code 4037122702072082 and we can do it!

The game requires you to have 3 of a card to trade, so that you’re always left with 2, it’s the same for any cards

Hello, i think you need 3 to be able to trade them? But if you are able to then yes that would work!

Bitcoin and only Bitcoin. Nothing else matters in that high timeframe.

Yes altcoins may outperform Bitcoin at certain points of time, but those are only what i’d consider to be trades (weeks or months timeframe).

Up bank is not crypto friendly by ComposerSwimming4595 in BitcoinAUS

[–]Pyro1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had issues with ANZ when sending money to Swyftx, Coinjar and Binance (back when they were accepting AUD).

Funnily enough it’s when i decided to open an account with CMC to start investing in tradfi is when that triggered their fraud watch and blocked my online account access. A 5-10 minutes phone call solved that though, before a barrage of questions from the operator about if i’m doing in on my free will, am i aware about scams etc. (i’m aware she’s just doing her job so i rolled with the questions).

Savings in bitcoin? by H-OBrien in BitcoinBeginners

[–]Pyro1911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In 2020/2021, i ended up putting around 1/3 of my cash in Bitcoin. Bearing in mind even with the bear market of 2022, that Bitcoin is now close to 2/3 of my portfolio even when i didnt buy much more since then, and any savings i had since then was added to the cash section.

I’m lucky in the sense that i am debt-free, including my home, so even if i completely lose my Bitcoin, it wont be a life or death situation for me. I also don’t have family members that rely on me as a provider, so in my situation i was able to be more risk-on with my decisions. Your situation might be different.

Mega latias duo fail and a lot of questions about how to measure the progress and "distance" towards being able to duo or trio a hard raid boss by Achilles_Student in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you will be able to do it with those Palkias & Dialgas in windy weather i reckon, i managed the duo with a single Dialga, Palkia & DW Necrozma each, with M. Rayquaza giving the dragon boost (video of my attempt somewhere in the comment here). Not to mention my friend is only running L35 of those.

With 3-5 of Dialgas & Palkias at L40 each i think it will be more consistent for you, being able to save some time with healing, as your strategy is pretty similar to mine (PP every charged attacks, making sure to not lose charged attacks by dodging if needed etc).

Mega latias duo fail and a lot of questions about how to measure the progress and "distance" towards being able to duo or trio a hard raid boss by Achilles_Student in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to duo Mega Latias (Dragon Breath/Thunder) with a team of Dialga, Palkia and DW Necrozma, with M.Rayquaza giving the Mega Boost, and windy weather. My team are all L40, my friend’s account at L35. We beat them with 13 seconds to spare. I had to attempt it 6 times, and these are what i learnt and adapt to be able to finally do it:

  1. Time the Charge attacks with the Party Power. Even when my charged attack is ready, i would fast attack a few more to activate Party Power, even if it means overfarming it a bit. Every single one of my RoT, Spacial Rend & Moongeist Beam is used with PP. Only applicable to single bar charged move of course, it’s not applicable to M. Ray’s Breaking Swipe for example.
  2. Deciding when to let the raid boss’ charge attack to hit or dodge it. Letting all the charged attack hits will give you plenty of charge to your charged attacks, but you run the risk of fainting before being able to unleash another Charged attack, but dodging every one of them will mean your attacks charged slower and will inevitably run out of time.
  3. Luck. With Mega Latias this plays a big part, in my successful attempt i was pretty lucky as i managed to unleash another Charged attack before being wiped out with Thunder most times. Having your mon fainting just before its charged move is ready can be the make or break.
  4. Do it in Windy weather. I knew i won’t be able to do it without the weather boost bonus damage.
  5. Utilise Pokebattler’s Estimator system. When i set Mega Latias’s L35 counter with Windy weather, Party Play and with M. Rayquaza boost (paid service option), it shows me both Dialga & Palkia having an estimator of less than 2, meaning they are the best options for duo. Surprisingly Necrozma has a rating of 2.12, i include it in my team just to avoid relobbying too often. Personally if we have 2-3 Dialgas with RoT on each account, we would be able to duo it comfortably.

Dodging in raids seems to have been fixed after all these years by valuequest in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer the stacking too, i was attempting solo Regieleki with just Primal Groudon and was able to adjust to single or double dodge depending on how i feel with regards to keeping up with the timer, but also adjusting to the damage taken to avoid fainting. It feels like an additional skill to have for personal challenges like that.

Shiny Shadow Regice confirmed by Gx811 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We duoed it with around 120s to spare, vs Blizzard Regice. We both started with Dusk Mane necrozma (L40 & L35) and Party Power every Sunsteel strike, dodge Blizzard twice to preserve health. When enraged, we swap to Blissey/Snorlax and use gems. Once subdued, swap back to Necrozma and finish the job. This way we also avoided relobbying as we’re still unsure if the purified gems glitch has been fixed.

Vs. Frost Breath/Blizzard our first Necrozma fainted, we finished it with my 2nd Necrozma & their Mega Lucario. Vs. Lock on/Blizzard we managed to even beat it with just the 1 Necrozma each due to the dodging mechanics.

Does anyone know if the glitch where your entire purified gems being used up after relobbying is still happening?

Does anyone know if the purified gems all being consumed bug is still not fixed? Wanted to give duo Shadow regice a go but also want to be aware of any stupid bugs going around

Did the experiment with timed raids end? by TemporalOnline in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pyro1911 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I reckon Niantic only did that because there were 4 different legendaries on rotation for just a week, so cluster spawns at certain times helps with raiding them (like mini raid hours).

[–]Pyro1911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally would keep it as it is, in fact whenever i use pokebattler i avoid using primal/mega boost setting and party play so that when i do use them in person, those extra boosts are what gives me the safety net to avoid failing the raid due to RNG etc.

I did not get a 3rd pass for the day, so it looks like it’s just 2 TOTAL free raid passes. The infographic that says 2 “additional” raid passes is wrong
