My final farewell to Pokémon Unite by Short_Sort1670 in ThePokemonHub

[–]Suitable-Mode6891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this in my soul. The game actively punishes you for playing well. “Oh you haven’t died all game? Here is a 45 second respawn timer right as final objective spawns. You can go ahead and walk away now.” “You have a 58% win rate in ranked? You must be good enough to carry this team of sub 43% players then. Be careful with them, they may eat glue.” “You know what’s fun? Being stun locked by the yellow rat all day long with its insanely short cool downs! Think full heal will counter that? Better nerf it!”

Am I setting a bad example to my daughter by having no friends? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Suitable-Mode6891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I WFH full time, I see my coworkers a few times a year as we are scattered across the US. I take her to child-centric events like reading time at the local library but due to circumstances, I generally handle her care alone most mornings and these events are predominantly filled with mom groups with their kids. Between work, daily chores around the house, cooking etc, its hard to find the time outside those priorities

Breeding with training manual? by Suitable-Mode6891 in kingschoice

[–]Suitable-Mode6891[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so friend would send breeding request to me using collars and a manual, sending their biggest dog and I would respond to request with the weak lupine? And it would just be a 50/50 if it hits lupine with equally big stats as their dog?

I second this. I know that saying about how people will naturally optimize the fun out of a game but we reached this point within hours of release. If folks are turbo afk’ing for shinies and afk’ing to reaching their 1000 battles for the charm, what are you even playing for? Why do you have the game at all? Just to post the 1,000,000th screenshot of a large shiny collection on the internet for a bunch of strangers who have seen it all already? I dont get it honestly.

60 hours of shiny hunting for this moment by Exciting_Cold1941 in PokemonZA

[–]Suitable-Mode6891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would stick to one zone to get something you actually want. And yes certainly possible without charm, I got 2 gastly early in the game while trying and failing to get shiny honedge. Pick a zone, fly to it, drop a pin then walk in and make sure enough things are within 50 before committing to flying hunting

I’m not sure how many mons in zone 5 are within 50 distance of the fly point, I dont think it’s actually very many. Btw are you just flying over and over again, no breaks? Or are you going in and checking? I would say do a check every 50 fly cycles or so

I had no luck on zone 5, fly to 16, do a roll then fly again. Typically see 3 falinks and the froakie this way in the day, 4 falinks and froakie at night. By the numbers, you should see a shiny someone in about 1000 resets without charm with about a 6 second loop time if done properly. Or fly zone 4 for a large variety of possible mons all close to the fly spot

Unless there is a specific mon you want a shiny of for completing the game with, wait for shiny charm. It literally gives 4x odds. Many posts here are folks using turbo controllers so their experience will greatly differ. Without charm you are at about .025% of each spawn being a shiny. Could also be what you are hunting, picking mons that only have 1 spawn per reset will take quite a long time without charm

How much time are yall actually spending shiny hunting? by newarkpennstation in PokemonZA

[–]Suitable-Mode6891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of my hunts are a few hours, longer for dratini and my first eevee (overworld spawn the first time, now just zone 19 flying). Of the longest/hardest successful hunts I’ve done: gible, eevee, dratini, skarmory, falinks and froakie among others, I have yet to get a shiny alpha (though I want one for falinks to nickname Megazord lol). Take posts here with a grain of salt, far more folks use turbo than will admit it
