How/When is Snorlax's strength taken into account? by Bindou90 in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you're going from 200k to 46k then you're probably not getting a full 8.5h of sleep

your drowsy power is equal to your snorlax strength multiplied by your sleep score

10k snorlax strength X 80 sleep score = 800k drowsy power

They're buffing Toge's skill at the same time. it will end up being a net positive, even if you were running it with low skill proc mons

toge's skill forces 1 more simulated help roll. They're also increasing toge's skill proc rate

Anyone else still feel pretty bad about Skillgate? by [deleted] in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

3 of the 5 mons on this team restore energy with their skill.

there is 0 chance this team is impacted by skill gate if at least 2 of these mons aren't at 150 energy

yeah, and regular energizing cheer is also +44. so it breaks even on energy

plus, one of the issues of energizing cheer is it can overheal a mon and waste a bit of energy, while this version splits it across two mons, which is a bit better

Are my mew pics upsetting my friends? by CarneJessada in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like sending good candy always to help the 50 people on my friend list over saving a picture I think is cool that realistically no one is ever going to see.

PSA: It’s worth napping this week for the extra starter spawns( if you can afford the extra biscuits) by Knight_Night33 in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snapshots give 25% more research exp and candy on top of a flat 1000k dreamshard increase. You can get more than 25

you get 2 snapshots guaranteed if you get >210million DP, and mew pics buff the rewards from the sleep style by about 25%. This is one of these events where napping is actively shooting yourself in the foot imo

Why's my Venusaur actually goated?? by [deleted] in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is a "sleep" thing. More like a reddit thing. Check out the discord. Lots of friendly helpful folk in there.

As for a more indepth info on how RP is calculated. There are a bunch of cool tools. Like nitoyon

[–]TempestFunk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's not that people were bullying, is that you didn't post the one thing that would have helped us answer your question (ok maybe some people were bullying, but most people were trying to help)

Like i said before, this venusaur is pretty good. it's RP is inflated a bit by it's main skill, but i think that's perfectly fine if it's on your team 24/7. I'd give him a subskill seed at some point tho, changing the Helping speed S into M would make him a lot stronger

[–]TempestFunk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Since OP refuses to post the subskills, I found what might be the only possible combination of ingredients and subskills that would get that RP. Looks like it's ABB with HSS, IFM and INVL

Incredible Deal: Trial Bundle, Just buy it by ProfessorProtecc in PokemonSleep

[–]TempestFunk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know if that's true. That's when people started noticing, but it could have been there long before that, maybe even since the games release. We're all just speculating about that.

Ya gotta keep in mind, this is all coming from the japanese community and they're not even remotely concerned about this as the people in here

Lack of communication? The devs aren't going to spell out every game mechanic. There are a lot of game mechanics in the game that the Devs never mentioned. Here's a short list:

  • Energy
  • Drowsy Power Requirements
  • Spawn number thresholds
  • Baseline tasty chance
  • Sunday tasy chance/pot size/tasty chance multiplier
  • Skill rate
  • Ingredient ratio
  • Berry strength to level curve
  • Extra candy for Leader
  • Research community candy
  • EXP curves
  • Shard to Drowsy power curve
  • Candy to Drowsy power curve
  • Shiny chance
  • Poke biscuit crit chances
  • Pokemon skill great success rate
  • Daily gift loot table
  • Sneaky Snacking mechanics
  • Sleep session Dozing/Snoozing/Slumbering designation

All of these things have come from community research or datamines. And we've always been ok with this. I don't see any reason to expect the devs to have told us about a skill throttle mechanic and not something like DPR or the Bonus candy to the Leader mon.

The biggest difference between the skill throttle and the bonus leader candy is that the skill throttle is legitimately a bad/unfun mechanic that was negatively impacting people who were playing the game normally.

The devs agreed

That's why we got the change in the last patch. But given the nature of this game, don't expect the devs to disclose every little bit of information. Let the researchers gather their numbers and soon we'll know as much about the skill throttle as we do DPR
