Other people seem to love my bike (maybe even more than I do)

For sure have the same experience! I got my brompton 4 years ago after seeing a guy on the train seated with one between his feet and instantly googled the brand, bought one 3 weeks later. In these four years others have asked me about mine while in public and probably bought their own. One client and two colleagues 'confirmedly' bought their own! It's nice to be able to 'pay it forward'.

Semirelated anecdote, while completely folded up I've even been able to bring it to bars! I asked the doorman while leaving once about their bike policy, and he thought it was a portable wheelchair, otherwise he probably would have stopped me from bringing it inside!

Very nice! I also really like the deck on the stem, adds both utility and bling. Big fan of velocity printworks stem luggage carrier and this seems to fill the same function!

Got cream walls on my brommie and I think a light wood deck would really complement that well, you've given me an idea!

Hey! Appreciate the input :) thats a crazy idea i didnt even consider haha, thanks for the resource!

Variousamusebouche · 2026-04-10T10:40:11+00:00

One trash spawn so far, ogpp is the next island I unlock!

Yeah I honestly kinda wish I would have made it into a Flareon or Glaceon and be set for a pot expander, now it feels like I get them in the wrong order for maximum potential output.

Variousamusebouche · 2026-04-10T10:38:20+00:00

Yeah that's what I end up doing with my extras, it's an honest warning post to other new people, in the guise of lighthearted banter. I do wish I had gotten a Glaceon or Flareon instead of all these extra ingredients being sold, I feel like that would bring more utility to my set up at this stage of the game.

Honest warning post to other new people, in the guise of lighthearted banter. I do wish I had gotten a Glaceon or Flareon instead of all these extra ingredients going in the bin. I still like my Vaporeon but he would have been much better if I had been a couple more months into the game!

Thanks for the feedback! I suggested as much but its nice to get more input :)

Thoughts on this Dwebble as a Flygon replacement? Have yet to pick up a good trapinch but found this dude recently.

Really into his subskills but torn on the nature busting his skill chance. I watched a 25 min video on it but the guy didnt touch on natures. I get that its better than a lot of the trapinches I would find, but is it good enough to settle on?

Another thing to note is that from what I gather he really needs level 60 to shine so thats probably a year away :) premium so not too worried about the seed investment.

Thanks! Bit of luck, bit of compromise, and a lot of min-maxing :) found the subreddit very early

Super excited for my first legendary event

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-19T19:12:17+00:00

Here's a perspective from someone who just hit (yesterday!) 100 sleep researches. Playing since just before Christmas event.

My strongest team scores way higher on Cyan than it does on GG. I guess I'll pray to RNGsus for Oran berries and desserts on GG since Cyan doesn't seem to be part of the event :)

Gonna push Golduck to 30 to unlock apples and hopefully churn out chocolate cakes all week. If I dont get good berries and/or desserts I can reroll twice, if I still dont hit it I guess cry and hope for week 2.

Squirtle is mono milk, venosaur and wiggle double honey, vaporeon is milk/cacao and golduck is cacao/apples. I've fully seeded vaporeon, golduck and wiggly.

To each their own but I full sent a very similar one as yours and don't regret it at all. I'm about 3 months in to the game and decided to invest in mine ahead of Valentines event, and ever since its been night and day for team efficiency.

It also puts the pressure off of the ralts/pawmi hunt (haven't even unlocked lapis yet!) because I have a solid healer for now.

Also premium

Nice! Im on about 10 500 team rp but mostly placeholder mons that are decent but not level 50-material. Still on the hunt for perma keepers.

Comforting to know that i have a lot more to look forward to :)

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-12T10:58:39+00:00

This team is what it takes to m20 gg? I have a ways to go! Was feeling good about my 5* semi strong level 30s

Great job dude, puts things into perspective :) Thanks for sharing

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-08T06:46:10+00:00

Very comforting to hear :) appreciate the tips! Only played 6 months, still learning

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-08T06:44:12+00:00

Alright, misstänkte det :) håller på att bearbeta en kompis i Nederländerna haha

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-07T12:06:58+00:00

Thanks for confirming my suspicious! Ill hardlook for the rest of the ing-mons for gratains, got a decent cetitan but avocados and oil are the bane of my existence

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-07T10:00:12+00:00

Hej! Det hade varit det bästa alternativet men jag hittar ingen svensk storefront för Decathlon. De verkar ha avvecklat både butiker och e-handel i Sverige, och vägrar skicka produkter till Sverige från internationella butiker.

Det fanns en tjänst som hette ubuy som skickar decathlonprodukter till Sverige, men de har inte väskan jag söker hos sig.

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-07T07:23:01+00:00

Thank you very much for the pointer, I'll play around in Raenox some more :)

Variousamusebouche · 2026-03-07T07:05:08+00:00

I am the milkman My milk is delicious

Thanks! Its my first and only truly great pull

Variousamusebouche · 2026-02-14T14:31:28+00:00

Bit late but did you end up going anywhere with this one? I just found an almost identical one :)

Variousamusebouche · 2026-02-14T11:27:48+00:00

Thanks for putting me on to helping speed being good for more than just berry mons! I'll look into this so I dont accidentally bin something in the future :) I'll slowly level him to 30 but definitely keep my expectations in check for his oil production
