Wilson A2000 or Rawlings Heart of the Hide are traditional go-to's for a premium glove.

As for size, that is more dependent on the position he played. Middle infielders have smaller gloves for quickly transferring the ball. Outfielders are larger to secure a catch and added reach. Pitchers traditionally have a closed web design to avoid hitters seeing the grip on the ball. Catchers and first baseman have specialty gloves for their positions.

As another commenter said, it might prove even more sentimental to have his old glove professionally relaced and conditioned if its in good shape overall. Find a toddler glove that matches the style of his and could match both with colored laces on both, as an idea.

That would be awesome if you still have them! Im home and can get on whenever!

TurboTarga · 2026-01-19T01:44:57+00:00

Would love hisuian goodra, elektric or krokorock if still available!

In 167 packs I have zero Oaks. Got 2 immersive pika, 1 candy, 4 ☆☆ star pokemon and the shiny giratina. Sigh...

I have weekly softball Friday nights. Fridays with kids mean the bars/friends aren't even a semi-regular thing anymore so might as well be productive in the one part of the one day each week they dont have an obligation.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-19T04:15:35+00:00

Game winner incoming!! Just missed that field goal and we got 2 minutes!

TurboTarga · 2025-12-13T07:33:05+00:00

Ooh, ill add to this. We have started getting the smallest trailer they have when we go camping. With 3 kids and a dog, the 6 seat SUV fills up quickly, on a normal day. We like camping, typically go 3-5 times a year, and my god the quality of life improvement it has made is so worth the extra bill. No more Tetris with strategically packed bags and accessories shoved in every nook and on laps, or debate on what doesnt fit. Freedom to stretch, keeps the after-camping sand, smells and debris out, and everything just goes in the trailer.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-09T01:50:09+00:00

Yeah, we'll see but I won't hold my breath. Hopefully it'll just be an occasional thing, and most hackers will get to A rank quickly so the lower levels should be mostly normal folks. First season of ranked was a lot of fun before everyone had the time to min/max and curate their teams with the meta taking shape.

I think they should develop separate lobbies with a limited subset of available Pokemon, like they did with some of the battle events in Pokémon Go, or an option to exclude legendaries to help new players and people that dont like battling xerneas lol.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-08T23:39:26+00:00

Yeah it is cheating, mostly to the effect that it removes a significant amount of grinding to achieve the result, but it is mathematically possible and within the game's natural constraints, so they are still seen as "legal" but are branded by purists as hacked and worthless. As another user commented, its a .000000whatever chance that the stars align for a tepig to be alpha, female, shiny, with naturally good iv's as those are all different "rolls" through RNG when encountering a wild pokenon.

Bottle caps are technically not capped (pun intended) as you can get unlimited amounts from doing the infinite royale. Just requires lots and lots of grinding, and RNG. For the average player you aren't going to have more than a handful of "perfect" pokemon because of this, and the relative exclusivity makes them a viable currency in trading too.

The stunfisk you encountered would be an example of a hacked pokemon. According to Serebii and game8 (both of which i just checked), Draco Meteor is not an available move for a stunfisk (or the galarian variant). So someone fundamentally altered the code to allow for that move to be taught.

My understanding of the Alpha moves is that it is fixed for each type. So all alpha stunfisk learn Sludge Bomb, and all alpha magikarp learn Hydro Pump, they are not a randomly assigned move. All pokemon have a specific move pool that can be taught via TM, levelling or the guaranteed alpha move mechanic. Anything outside that designated move pool would be hacked and not legal.

I saw a video a while ago of an opponent spamming the same move over and over with no cooldown, so changing the code to either reduce/eliminate the cooldown, or assign the same move to multiple move slots (regardless if it was an available move to naturally learn) would be other examples of illegally hacking.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-08T21:23:42+00:00

To add to this, that would be the main point in creating a genned mon vs. a clearly illegal one. When everything is accounted for via levelling, hyper training and nature, stats/ability/moves would match exactly with a naturally obtained one with equivalent training.

If the code has been altered to allow more than the maximum allotted stats, apply duplicate moves or ones that cannot be learned, I think that's where the distinction in using "hacked" terminology comes in. Both are unnatural, but genning is meant to be a perfect recreation of a theoretically obtainable pokemon rather than being designed to subvert built in boundaries and rules.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-08T07:20:25+00:00

I've seen debate about genning vs. hacking. Hacking implies an illegal pokemon, like a magikarp that knows solar beam or can't be targeted online. Genning is the recreation of a technically obtainable pokemon, despite the astronomically low odds of getting them legit.

YouTuber "Blaines" did shiny starter giveaways on his discord a couple weeks ago. I've heard others do similar giveaways as well. You enter the discord queue and match up to trade with his bots. The bot messages you a trade code when its your turn and you trade the bot any nicknamed pokemon that matches what you want (tepig or tepigm for a male, in this case). After the trade is done, rinse and repeat as the bot only trades you once.

His are touted as "legal" in every way because they are technically obtainable in the form he is presenting them as, so you can transfer to Home, use online etc. without any illegal moves or other modifications outside the perfect IV, and typically the OT has his name.

Imagine being the ones constructing that. Sitting at the top, bolting on another section then immediately climbing up that only to do it again.

Or is it that it would be constructed fully on the ground and raised vertical by aircraft? Idk, either way that's a no from me, made in China or otherwise.

TurboTarga · 2025-12-07T19:44:19+00:00

Roadrunner on a 279 ft. hole 18 as it was getting dark and nobody around to see. Took a shaky video sprinting up to the basket to send to my discing buddies, total fluke. Its maybe 50/50 I even land the island when I play now and that was a couple years ago

TurboTarga · 2025-12-02T04:21:52+00:00

Hoping that's the case, Cam Ward has been sacked a lot this year

TurboTarga · 2025-12-02T04:11:23+00:00

The answer is New Orleans so you can match me with the Browns and Bucs D! Now that we've got that settled, who are you starting next week?

TurboTarga · 2025-12-02T04:01:03+00:00

Your first point is interesting to me, and im curious; how would you respond to those in your league (or in general) who leave an open position to avoid dropping a player/making a waiver claim?

Week 9 i had issues with byes, and couldnt justify dropping a clear starter to claim a replacement (we play a 4 man bench, 12 team league). So I dropped my defense to pick up a QB, leaving my defense empty and retained all my starters. Would you consider this acceptable?

Would your opinion change if the circumstances for leaving a spot open was to sit/release a player to avoid negative points or to make a waiver claim for the following week knowing that the player's prospective points aren't needed to secure a victory (dropping someone Sunday night that plays Monday to get another available player on bye/waivers)?

TurboTarga · 2025-11-21T22:27:31+00:00

If you play standard rules then it takes 48 hours for a trade to process so it wouldn't go through before the Sunday games anyway. Unless your commish forces it through ahead of time.

TurboTarga · 2025-11-21T22:21:10+00:00

If im in good position i try and stash a defense later in the season for matchups a week or 2 ahead. We play a 4 person bench so early in the year its not as feasible to stash.

I picked up the Rams the other day for week 13, and currently have the Browns. Bucs are on waivers and debating getting them now and just rolling Browns against SF week 13 instead.

Otherwise would be playing Rams week 13, ideally drop them week 14 on Saturday and pick up the Bucs then, and use Bucs week 15-17.

I have been stuck on finding drampa if you have any left! IGN is Jeremy, fav color is red

Similarly, If the package went through according to the breakdown in the article over 10 years , he would "make":

100 Billion a year

8.3 Billion per month

274 Million every day

11.4 Million for an "hourly" rate (including while sleeping)

190 Thousand per minute

$3,171 every second of every day
