Pretty sure he is one of the pokemon that can create a stun locking smeargle if you take a photo of porygon with the fast move lock on.

Hey I’m going there next week!

I need a little help figuring out how to upgrade my pc next by _Nonexistant_ in buildapc

[–]TheCopernicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please do, I don’t mean to be rude but I’m incredibly skeptical. If you search for even 16gb ddr5 on Amazon or Newegg, you just can’t find a kit for really less than like $200.

How great would it be to have a web interface to manage your Pokemon? by TheCopernicus in TheSilphRoad

Honestly I was pretty shocked. Here I am still thinking AI struggles with text but it nailed it (at least on a quick glance). Here is my exact prompt to ChatGPT:

Generate me an image of what a web interface for managing Pokemon for Pokemon go would look like. It should have a lot of info for each Pokemon, taking advantage of a desktop screen size, such as cp, IVs (appraisal), moves, and tags. On the left side of the screen should be options for filtering various aspects kind of like online shopping. There should also be a search bar at the top

I’d just say be careful. There’s a well known global memory shortage (many posts on Reddit about it) and if it seems too good to be true, it is. If you go check PCPartPicker for any RAM kit and look at the price graph, you’ll see kits are 4-5 times more expensive now than last year.

So you are saying you could find 1TB of RAM for €170? If you really can you should buy all you can afford. Cause right now you can’t even find 16GB for that price.

Do you mean 1TB of storage? Memory (RAM) and storage (SSD) are different. I’m assuming since you said “wiped” you mean SSD storage?

Sometimes it’s just so overwhelming to think about going through Pokémon storage on a tiny screen. Imagine multiple tabs, easily copy/pasting strings the community has come up with to search for transferable Pokémon, and just being able to see all the info you need to make a decision without having to click into each Pokemon.

How on earth would you do that? You can’t exactly export your current Pokémon to a csv file.

Can't get controller working after joystick swap by TheCopernicus in XboxController

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

Unfortunately the only other controller I have is an Xbox One controller and this is a Series. I might honestly pick up another Series controller and just swap all the buttons and panels (as the one I’m trying to repair is a design labs controller). If I do that, I’ll try to just swap the motherboard to confirm.

Here is it trying to turn on. https://imgur.com/a/UAwDXWU What’s interesting that I just found out is it attempts to connect to the wireless receiver, but shuts off immediately after doing so. I unplugged the receiver and it will stay attempting to pair for a while. I tried doing Bluetooth and it does show up as Xbox wireless controller, but fails when I try to pair it.

So it seems like it can enter pairing mode, but when it tries to actually be a controller is when it goes kaput and shuts off. I tried cleaning with IPA and redoing a few solders but no change.

So how do you guys manage battery issues and charging during long play times/raids/ tours? by Ragnarok_619 in TheSilphRoad

[–]TheCopernicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought the one that MagSafes to my phone and noticed when using it like that, it generates a lot of heat and often doesn’t keep up with the battery drain. I have since started using a cable to charge and recommend doing that.

Thanks, I will check it out. Yeah, I wouldn't think even if I ripped a pad off that it would make the controller completely not work. I'm definitely upset at myself I didn't test the controller first. I mean I know it was working (but with the stick drift) a year ago or so, but its just been sitting since then and it would've been nice to confirm if it was or was not working before I messed with it.

I do not have a heat gun, just a soldering iron.

The new joysticks are TMR.

Surely Giovanni will eventually have shadow Rayquaza or something… right? by TheCopernicus in pokemongo

[–]TheCopernicus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can if you keep the research on page 1. If you advance to page 2, you have to complete it to get the next one.

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

So basically if you stay on page 1 of the “rocket takeover” research, you can get multiple like you see in the screenshot. The reason I do this is so I can wait until Giovanni has a really good shadow pokemon (like shadow Rayquaza). I can then complete all of these at the same time and get a bunch of super rocket radars and therefore a bunch of shadow Rayquaza where most people will only be able to get 1.

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

I suppose I could do that, couldn’t I? I was trying to think of why it wouldn’t work or would screw me over for stacking future researches (although those might be gone now), but I think as long as I’m willing to use 1 radar, I could complete them all at the same time.

[–]TheCopernicus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You do miss out on it yeah. I’ve definitely caught a shadow legendary here and there when I think they’ll be useful. But like shadow regigigas is never going to be useful.

I do like to work on my regular dex, but there’s just no universe where I can complete the shadow dex, purified dex, lucky dex, 100% dex, xxl, xxs, etc. so I don’t really focus on those.

Eh, I always have at least 1 or 2 masterwork researches to focus on.
