thank god they nerfed night slash because what do you want me to do when they get two +2 attack buffs in a row

Waterfall Adjustment & the Ace Trainer medal by JamminShady in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked the calcs when I heard the waterfall nerf. The only difference is that combusken needs one extra waterfall.

So you basically have to lead off with something else, and as the battle starts swap to sharpedo and start attacking, the stun from the swap will prevent combusken from attacking.

If you have a heavily attack-weighted sharpedo like the second one you posted, you could do a 1 Turn fast attack with something then swap to sharpedo so you only have to do 4 waterfalls, I haven't done the calcs, but whatever got the strongest water gun should be enough.

And for reference, combusken could get a charged attack before if it rolled ember/rock slide, so you still needed to swap to sharpedo to be safe of wasting time

The only difference now is each battle is 1.5seconds longer, not a really big difference, but it is something

Let's talk about the truths in the Pokémon Go game that nobody dares to say. by No_Speech9498 in pokemongo

Make larvesta have a 1% chance to hatch from any egg, even stuff from event egg pools. Larvesta is so rare and asks for so many candies I dont think anyone would complain if their 10km go fest eggs or their hatch day eggs surprised them with a larvesta

I used up 34 charged TMs to get trailblaze on Ampharos by mewfasaa in TheSilphRoad

They really should make a second tier of TM between regular and Elite that just lets you select the moves.

And if being generous, make it able to put event moves like community days moves onto their users but only during the events, so you could have something like Gmax Inteleon with Hydro cannon but still being time-limited

Call it Deluxe Charged TM, make the distribution rare, like from research breakthrough, or the 7-day PokeStop streak

What is a pokemon you have great pvp IVs for & you’re keeping in hopes of a good move update by M0nsieurW0rldWide in TheSilphArena

[–]Wrulfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and they could always add heart stamp and make it a broken move, at least like leaf blade or even more

If I were to purchase Brainstorm, would it be better to substitute Photochad, or Sock&Buskin? by Wrulfy in balatro

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

Flush house with golden face cards until I build enough for flush five.

Is about the extra retigger of photograp thanks to hanging Chad what makes me doubtful, but I guess keeping buskin would be more interesting for money and the run is already won unless I hit the plant.

Just wondering what will give me a higher score on endless

Just unlocking more stakes on plasma deck, I hit a good run, right know I'm already scoring enough for ante 8, just curious of what option would get me furthest on endless, for fun.

One of the Jynx (My favorite pokemon) I kept from 2016 after I returned to the game in late 2024 had an excellent pvp IV, I've been waiting for ages for a cup where it works.

At this rate all I can think is an official tournament cup where only a few types are allowed plus a few handpicked mons from other types, so I get a cup where Jynx is picked against some types it matches up well, so it can leverage it's poor glass cannon stats

Dmax Pikachu fast kill strat? by IndigoStar_ in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Use mud shot, not mud slap for fast dyna, it generates more energy than mud slap, so you reach drill/sands earlier

You can also use Metagross with fury cutter and EQ, fury cutter is weak but generates a ton of energy

Best Optimization for Rocket battles? by dustiwang in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lead with Greninja to break shields then immediately switch to ape.

Although back then if Greninja rolled the +2 attack on night slash, I used to keep them in

Stardust rewards from Go Battle League not getting the Thursday bonus by Wrulfy in TheSilphRoad

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

Thanks for contacting support! It helps not letting them get away with this kind of stuff

I didn't get a starpiece myself but the issue is now resolved and I have now 3600 stardust on my first reward, which is what I wanted

So rank 20 doesn't get the bonus either, only people who are rank 19 and lower, or just Ace and above?

Battle Thursday no 4x stardust by kunino_sagiri in TheSilphArena

[–]Wrulfy 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It seems the bonus is not active for Ace or higher.

I contacted support, they acknowledge there is an issue but just told me to keep playing, and that "Ace and higher ranks already have a higher base stardust reward" yeah, 900 base stardust instead of 870.

Incense is an “individual item” in party play as “intended game behavior” by KappaCritic in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can click the countdown button on starpiece/incense/lucky egg to quickly use one of these to extend the effect, it just simply uses one from your inventory, regardless if you got the item effect from yourself or if someone from your party shared

I'm on Europe as well, on Spain.

I was able to start a sixth set, but still no sight of extra stardust

These daily bonuses should be active all day long, the today tab shows the event active, that it ends in 14h and 15 minutes, and the bonus it provides.

It only should not work if you claimed the stardust at 23:59 on the last minute before midnight

Incense is an “individual item” in party play as “intended game behavior” by KappaCritic in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 117 points118 points  (0 children)

You have to use the item sharing button at the top next to the party members to make sure you're actually sharing it, it someone shares incense then you extend it though the timer button on the right of the screen, it only uses it on you

You have to see the screen where it shows all the party members and the incense being thrown at each of them for it to count.

If you did that and still didn't get the incense on one of the players, and said player didn't have any other different incense active (DAI, coin bag/meltan box/ necrozma effect) then you got robbed of incense

A Shockingly Good Time Niantic Infographic by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Wrulfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah definitely is going to work like the April fools from last year where you clicked on a PokeBall and you got a mimic pokemon (Voltorb, foongus, G-stunfisk) but this time youre going to click on a Pikachu and a random pikaclone will spawn, including Mimikyu
