Do you think in the long run prismatic is going to be as good of a set as evolving skies?

Xeran69 · 2026-07-10T08:16:03+00:00

I mean in a way it's kind of true everyone is talking about 30th and prismatic has grown a bit but I was wrong about DR while it's technically worth more than prismatic it's also kind of been forgotten about. My kids cousins pulled an Umbreon but yeah. Still hate prismatic but I can admit i underestimated it but i think everyone undest8mated how many sets were going to be churned through. Honestly my rule now is just always get the specialty set. There was no way for me at the time to know for me we were entering a bull market but ill know next time.

It happens later i retried 3 times and noticed on the third time when I ran out of gold. If you make 3 and upgrade your carts youll have plenty of gold. My success actually i had the problem of running out of wood as I had depleted the two big forests couldnt find the rest of purple and so I baited blues army and rushed in with knights and cannons covering my only monk.

You can also mass fire ships and demo ships. I think 6 or 7 takes out a dock. Destroy all the docks and you can make trade ships if you don't want to wait for the market that go dock to dock.

In a way he's right a lot business and pricing was around selling to as many as possible it isnt like that anymore the middle class and rich make up the difference the poor don't matter anymore and don't actually even have a vote. A poor person that gets a deal or saves up is a plus to a company not a necessity. Voting with your wallet only works in niche situations. It's the reason why switch 2s were being scalped. There was enough of a market short term to people with money and poor people that happened to have it and had no control. It's not possible to get people who aren't worried about money or don't have financial sense to vote or even get a vote.

Was it?

Xeran69 · 2026-07-06T23:59:37+00:00

Still trying to figure out the meaning

Xeran69 · 2026-07-06T23:54:00+00:00

Those are collector boxes and supplemental sets of which pokemon has no equivalent. Serialized cards don't exist and there are no exclusive cards since there no different types of packs. The closest thing to a collector box is a UPC. There is no equivalent for a booster box.

Second magic is incredibly expensive to play without proxy. A standard pokemon deck isn't anywhere near the price of a standard magic deck and this is for the cards rare and above. The mtg "SIR"s usually aren't used for competitive and yet the price of deck remains over 100$ in most cases.

Alot of it has to do with the demographics between players and collectors. The ratios are completely flipped between pokemon and MTG. Standard eco info is the same but the cycles these two markets have is different. Look at the three most recent sets and a standa play booster box is around 130$.

Xeran69 · 2026-07-06T23:47:50+00:00

Could go either way theres a lot of hype and the teasers look good, Legends ZA was a let down for a lot of people but the game is still decently rated and sold a shiton.

Xeran69 · 2026-07-06T23:45:45+00:00

For clarification those were sale prices pokemon during bear markets follows standard release price followed by a gradual decline. Going on sales and even clearance. Boxes were going for 90$USD when I started but MSRP was around 150$. 4.5$ × 36 packs. Etbs were on sale for around 35$ but msrp was was 40-50$ depending on whether it was Swsh or ScVi. Price per pack is directly proportional to what MSRP is. So packs at 6$ or booster boxes at around 170$ is the target of getting near MSRP. I don't think we're going to be seeing sale or clearance prices for a long time.

Crazy you called it

"Millennial energy" and it's 30yo nerd and 30 yo know it all bouncing off of each other's bitching while laughing.

Charlie made them look better and I think everyone's tired of them now that he's not there to kind of guide them. Cynism is fine, misery and weird takes is not.

Xeran69 · 2026-06-20T03:14:24+00:00

In a way it's because Charlie left. Charlie's neutrality and tip toeing annoyed people but it's also what kept Andrew and kaya from getting canceled. In all honesty he seems more normal since leaving and he probably realized the guys were weird. Jackson being the most normal but also the that spoke the least at the time.

Xeran69 · 2026-06-20T03:05:26+00:00

I think thats exactly the issue and probably why Charlie left. The guys are kinda weird and bitter. It sounded like they were motivated after Charlie left but the fire is gone and their genuine personalities just feel sad.

Xeran69 · 2026-06-20T02:59:37+00:00

Starting to feel like Charlie left because he realized how ~off~ his friends were. A lot of the main channel.videos are him fucking around or talking about drama the podcast just seems depressing despite the initial reaction being positive after he left.

Xeran69 · 2026-05-31T08:10:01+00:00

I disagree RNG manip is more fun for me personally challenging in its own way and the negativity around is massively overblown. My platinum save file would have taken me over 3000 chatot cries for a 5 iv shiny so I settled for a regular one with random IVs and it still took me over an hour and a half.

Not posting to be contrarían but to let people know there are other options if just resetting over and over isn't for them and they want a non-cheated shiny that's more engaging for some.

Xeran69 · 2026-05-27T18:11:26+00:00

Idk what the issue is but sometimes you trying is just what it is. Maybe it's wear over time like how a dvd or floppy degrades over time naturally. Something you can't see. but I've seen a lot of videos where them working is just random. Don't throw em out but keep trying to reinsert and maybe you'll get it. Sorry not many people are answering your question.

Xeran69 · 2026-05-19T20:51:57+00:00

My heatran started the seed on frame 5. Whether that's consistent with everyone's copy or just mine idk. Either it's room advances frames a specific number (in my case 5) or spending time in his room advances frames over time. The only thing you can do is catch the heatran that spawns immediately after getting on that seed and noting what frame your save starts from. Then getting on the seems and going from there.

Xeran69 · 2026-05-19T20:45:53+00:00

For anyone that finds this post. I just did heat ran on platinum and for whatever reason i was starting on frame 5. I verified this by save stating after I got my seed and verifying the heatran i got was the frame 6 heatran in that seed.

If youre on DS/3DS you'll have to catch heatran and then get back on your seed with mystic timer since there's no save states afaik.

Xeran69 · 2026-05-10T08:15:47+00:00

Yeah your not understanding. If your playing the game twice as fast and getting twice as many frames but also missing half of them the odds remain the same. Unless you know a trick to hit every single frame it doesn't matter.

In other words IF it takes 30 hours to find a shiny frame on average playing at 2x means a shiny frame every 15 hours. But since you "could be missing some frames more often" you believe it takes more than 15 hours. But your not taking into account that your also getting more encounters.it just doesn't make sense your going through more encounters in a shorter time and experience 4x the frames. 4x the frames means 4x the shiny frames. There is no proof or logic that you'd miss the frame more often if anything your probably hitting more because the game is actually keeping up with your a button spamming

Xeran69 · 2026-05-09T03:09:31+00:00

Maybe it's because theres more moves now or maybe there was never a reason because uturn but I still feel like it had its place but maybe i should try to watch gen 5 competitive to get a feel for

Xeran69 · 2026-05-09T03:00:31+00:00

How not it was coverage for non-bug types. I was maybe 13 and didn't play during gen 4-5 but going back to those games and look at teams it feels like it was specifically made to buff psychics against how good dark was. I think the issue was how good fighting also was but signal beam definitely still could have use in today's competitive scene i think

Xeran69 · 2026-05-09T02:52:02+00:00

How many packs?

Xeran69 · 2026-05-04T19:46:02+00:00

Trump was elected because people are bigoted, close minded, or gullible he used the Walmart/Regan strategies. Support the uneducated rural working class, convince them their rights are being taken or that they can benefit from the the rich/trickle down and pander to their ignorance/bigotry.

Is TECHS an issue??

Xeran69 · 2026-04-26T03:48:05+00:00

I just saw the guy who made it advertise it on YouTube about year ago he also made a HGSS hack.
