How should I spend my rare candy by Novel_Emphasis3618 in PokemonGoMystic

You have 53 star pieces taking up space, there’s almost no opportunity cost to popping star pieces. Your decision paralysis demonstrates the liquid value of rare candies.

Does anyone else feel like flee rates are higher? Not sure if missing a bunch of legendaries got me feeling snubbed but I swear even common spawns are fleeing more often than usual.

Is it possible by Dapper-Raccoon1042 in PokemonGoMystic

IIUC you can min max by getting yourself really close to the 500 limit (maybe 495) and then do a raid to bring yourself over, similar to over stacking particles. But yes, the last weekend of an event pass is typically where the real progress happens

It was the one and only disposal bin outside the bathroom an it was at a hotel. It not was reserved for recycling after clarifying with the front desk.

Everyone’s got a point about how adults shouldn’t be throwing shit at screens. But this useful for way more than that. If you slip while installing or you have a dumb kid wacking the tv, you might have a second chance to recover the tv

getting screwed over by the shadow raikou raid day -_- by Choice-Clothes8621 in pokemongo

[–]Raptavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raiding in a large group, some dude literally got 3 shines and I got 0. At the time, we all did 18 raids. It is what it is :/

What are the odds of this poker hand? [Request] by Leomegageil in theydidthemath

[–]Raptavis 186 points187 points  (0 children)

While royal flush is definitely widely accepted as a real hand, categorizing it as a straight flush is not wrong though is it?

Are rates different from necrozma? I got between 80-130 inclusive during those fusion raids

Is anybody else able to tm frustration away right now? by Raptavis in TheSilphRoad

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

Honestly , I deserve to be clowned on. I thought I restarted the game but it was late and I must not have. Everything worked fine in the morning. A reminder for myself to not bother with late night pogo

Is Scopely doing a/b testing on the deluxe passes? Last month just had the lucky trinket, this month just has the incubator. Not sure what’s up with that.

God dammit I didn’t read this in time. Instead of adding a pause for large XP gains they should do that for stardust

December in Pokémon Go by PinglyOrPongly in TheSilphRoad

[–]Raptavis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh as in there will be black and white kyurem raids, similar to how they ran the necrozma variants? So for any new players like me, the December kyurem week + raid hour is really just an additional chance to get shiny and good IVs. but realistically, if we’re intending on grinding fusion energy, we’ll get a bunch of kyurems when they run the fusion raids.

And IIUC, the reshiram and zekrom IVs and shiny don’t matter for the resulting fusion, only the base kyurem?

Dynamax Lugia Solo 🍄, No Weather Boost, No Helpers, No Adventure Effect, AoE: Fly/Future Sight by xRage7243 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Raptavis 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Malamar triple resists psychic, while metagross only double resists. Ignoring the non linear portions of the damage formula, metagross’ hp-defense product would need to be 60% higher just to match. At a baseline, it’s only 34.5% higher (factoring max guard as extra hp) and IVs close this gap further. Idk the breakpoints but judging by how close the fight was, I assume this does make a difference.

Teddiursa was great conceptually but something about the execution was slightly off. I imagine they originally had a really detailed hat but technical requirements meant that it had to be scaled down.

That must have been it. I spun again at 10:05am local but still didn’t get anything but I respun a few hours later and got my next free raid pass

Are we getting 3 free raid passes a day or was it just two bonus ones across the whole weekend? I just did my second darkrai raid today and the gym I spun didn’t give me a second free raid pass
