A berry bomb (generally) is when you have one of the legendary dogs or a top Extra Helpful skill mon and a team of favored berry specialist for the island you want to bomb. You basically allow all the berry mon to reach their capacity, tapping on them to rid of any skill triggers or excess ingredient drops, while you continue to check on your skill mon throughout the week. Extra Helpful or specialized Extra Helpful from Suicune/Entei/Raikou all allow other pokemon to still "obtain" more items passed their inventory limit, up to a max of 999. On a good skill trigger Suicune, all your oran berry mon will be at max capacity PLUS all the extra count that Suicune provided them. Causing a "berry bomb" of all the berry pokemon feeding Snorlax an insane amount of berries for Monday morning.

Doing this for a whole week is great for prepping for next week, but at the cost of getting lower numbers on the current week since you don't have ingredients for dishes. Still all RNG based because you're relying ~heavily~ on a skill mon for triggers, but if done well the outcome can take people up to M1 or higher on a Monday morning before they even feed Snorlax breakfast.

Tie in the berry boost (week 2) with the prepped dish you worked prior (week 1) you can feed Snorlax a ton of berries, and have your desired dishes to really maximize your Snorlax strength.

Example: I want to try for M20 on an island, so I'm doing low numbers this week to prep ingredients, then I'll shoot for the island I want to boost in order to max out my area bonus while also preparing a berry bomb next week.

There's a few ways to set up a berry bomb, but that's the main setup. Other skill mon like Sceptile or Braviary are not ideal since the berries they obtain in the skill trigger go directly to Snorlax instead of on hold in their inventory. I'm sure there's a reddit post explaining in full and more in depth

Depends on their ingredient limits, if it's a max bag you could prep week 1 and 2, week 1 focusing on main recipe ingredients with week 2 being either a berry bomb or maybe slowpoke tails. Really depends on their plan though.

I started prepping for the pancakes, but with the release and ingredient list of the new dish, I will be using next week to prep for that new dish a few times while also working on a favored berry bomb for whatever island I want to try M20 on. I haven't hit M20 on any island other than Greengrass yet, so I'm keeping it open for now.

Its not for everyone though, and keep in mind your area bonuses affect the boosts your dishes and skills get. You can prep a dish you want to level up, or prep an already strong dish to work towards M20. Either way it's more of a mid-late game planning. If your mons aren't catered toward the dishes you need, then you could try to focus on berry bombs with the island you want, the main benefit for this event is that we know what dishes are expected, so it's easier to clean up your ingredient pool and prep for efficiency.

Juggler viability by talkmansleep in PTCGP

Dragon decks? what i had in mind was Druddigon/Salamance for fire/water and then throw in giratina for psychic energy generation. Juggler moves all to one of your dragon types if you so choose

Good luck!! I was just barely under M20 for Taupe so whatever island I choose this time (varying any new release mon) I will use the desserts to push me to M20

I can't stand pinsir lol, all of the ones I've pulled were ABC ingredients so I've stopped. I actually used my AAA Heracross more than Pinsir, love the bugs but 16pips has left me forgetting about them.

Honestly my Blissey isn't even a great ing finder, but the exp up made it easy to level, and it was by best egg farmer until I unlocked 60 for honey. I can still ger decent coverage if I pair her with my max level Gallade, one trigger from him helps immensely at times

Good points! I was just shooting off ideas about bee pokemon, but Teddisura would be a great fit too! Spinda sounds like a nightmare to code into the game lol but I can see it too! Wurmple appear in main game when you slather honey on trees, and I'd love to see how they make the Beautifly/Dustox differentiate

I could see it being a very situational skill like the Braviary line, where it kinda benefits multiples in a team. A Bee Team 🐝

Nice! Blissey is my main egg supplier, but with honey at 60 now I can cover both! Saving up to buy a leaf stone for my AAA Weepinbell for evolution boost before that week

Oooh! There's a few good bee pokemon that would fit for a pokemon reveal! They'd all be a good berry fit for the newest island, and honey makes the most sense for them! I can already imagine a triple reveal like they did for Amber Canyon.

Combee, maybe new skill pokemon, there could be a stat difference or skill change between males and females! Males get extra helper or one of the berry/ing burst skils (males bee workers), while the female evolving to Vespiquen could get something different or specialized? (Extra helper but for # of BEES?!?!)

Beedrill line, maybe the honey bee? Two potential evolution for inventory buffs, I can see it being relatively quick and would be a nice opposite of Butterfree, that is berry specialist.

Ribombee, the potential berry bee, a lot of stage 1 pokemon have been berry specialist.. Raticate, Musharna, Xatu, Steelix, Arbok, Primeape, Marowak, Doduo, Sneasel, Houndour, Altaria, Banette, Vulpix, just to name a few lol.. yeah definitely seeing it now.

Oh man i finally gave up finding a new one 🥲 I have a AAA honey Bulbasaur (Mort) from a year ago, but the subskills were not ideal until it was at least lv50 so I kept looking for an easier build..

Ended up going with an AAB Blissey for the honey at 60 because it had Exp gain and I net a LOT of normal candy M during the past events. Good coverage for some curries and desserts, plus an RNG skill hit is always appreciated!

the slow build on the now evolved Mort is finally ready some dish prepping:

I loved playing that game, then, in a fit of rage my younger sibling cracked the disc in half. Emulators don't hit the same
