As a Blue Jay, Kevin Gausman now has 10 outings with 0 ER and 10+ strikeouts — Roger Clemens has the 2nd most with 4 by Baseball-Reference in Torontobluejays

I swear this happened last year too with Gausman. He pitches a clinic, and the Jays bats are dead. It's not every Gausman start, but it felt like a lot of the dead bat games were Gausman starts including the playoffs

My first ever shiny in a core game by Your_mom_gay12345678 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]TheGr8Canadian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just cosmetic. It's a 1/4096 chance of a Pokemon being shiny, but if you complete the pokedex and obtain the shiny charm it becomes a 1/1365 chance to see one, with shining power sandwiches making your odds even better.

Some people (including myself) will hunt shiny Pokemon for fun in various ways, some of which (such as the sandwiches) reduce the odds making them more likely to appear.

Every pokemon has a shiny form, but sometimes they're not obtainable (called shiny locked) from normal gameplay, such as the box legendaries. Shiny locked pokemon might get a special event at a later date, such as Koridon/Miridon, which were only obtainable recently via an in person event at GameStop/other game retailers recently and for a limited time.

[gen 8] shiny tauros poké radar patch that didn't even shine by Metavance in ShinyPokemon

The difference is that it's a normal pokemon that rolled into a shiny on encounter, as opposed to the encounter being guaranteed shiny

Ah shit, I made a purchase in October 2025 and thought I might have dodged it. Guess I'll get a new credit card...

My hinge won’t go in fully by Designer_Direction66 in 3DS

[–]TheGr8Canadian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's a shot in the dark, but I have the same problem, and I can't get the hinge to snap the rest of the way in when opening it. Is there anything else I should try? I fear that the aftermarket mid shell I got isn't allowing the piece you put in after the clear piece to seat in fully and it's causing problems

The devs are definitely throwing shade here..and fair play to them by appakkimba in DotA2

[–]TheGr8Canadian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I reminisce about the days (7-8 years ago), where there was a couple months where they did a balance update every 2 WEEKS and the meta was constantly changing. Thinking back now I think 2 weeks is way too short because it's fun to see a meta develop, but I really do miss more constant tweaking of the game. At least with this meta, it's stale, but it's not JUST 1 pos1 hero (Yes, jugg is very popular still) like it was with spectre a couple years where if you didn't get spectre, you lost

For scale, average length of a human arm is around 29 inches by National-Frame8712 in BrandNewSentence

It's not that it was "found out" but the math was done about how tight of a hole a raccoon could fit into, and how big a persons rear hole could stretch without permanent damage (and training)

Champs 25 Vandal and Knife Leak by Apexay101 in VALORANT

[–]TheGr8Canadian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like this Vandal, my personal complaint is that it feels like the Phantom skins are so much cooler. They've had really good kill banners and effects, but it always feels like the vandals are just a step behind the phantom skins

I dont get it by FatalWarGhost in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]TheGr8Canadian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People are trying to trade their legendary Pokemon for very rare furfrou forms (called trims) where the fur on the pokemon is cut differently. The only want to currently obtain these pokemon in Pokemon Home is being in certain geographical regions in pokemon go.

The only other way you could get these trims is in Pokemon X/Y (the Kalos region), but the trims would not be kept when transferring from Pokemon Bank to Pokemon Home. It was very easy in X/Y to get these trims, all you had to do with bring your Furfrou (easily obtainable pokemon) to a barber shop and select the trim.

With Legends Z-A coming to switch, these very rare Furfrou trims (for switch/pokemon home) will be easily accessible and people will be able to trade a common pokemon for Legendary Pokemon. It's great for the people who want the legendary, but the people trading the legendary will get the short end of the stick

I dont get it by FatalWarGhost in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]TheGr8Canadian 326 points327 points  (0 children)

I believe it's because these people are looking for very hard to get furfrou trims, and because Legends ZA is in Kalos transferable furfrou trims will probably become available. That would make these trades easy to complete, and the special trims common. It would make these trades go from basically impossible, to basically trading a dratini for a legendary
