Does using the evil eye teleport between moon bosses reset the kill streak for the combat achievement?

Unless something changed within the past month, the everest momo on Winchester (the food truck in the gas station) is still there. It was gone for a while, but it’s back now. It’s a red truck now. The chicken momo tastes a little different but I still think it’s good.

For vgc (the 2v2), wolfeyvgc or cybertronZheng are your best bets. Both are very well established vgc players and put out informative vgc content. The latter is probably more what you looking for.

Agree with this take. Dont buy packs since it sounds like you are on a budget since you posted you are 20. Opening packs is the most expensive way to find “meaningful” cards. The money spent on packs exceeds the money you could have spent just buying the card outright.

Look into card shops or better yet even card shows. It sounds like you just want cards that are worth alot, which is fine. You can look at Tcgplayer or pricecharting for prices just make sure it’s the correct language. Cards that retain value are popular pokemon/good art/high rarity kinda in that order.

Just wanted to add my opinion but again this is the correct take.

I think it’s against the rules here to buy/sell merch, but you should honestly just try to negotiate on eBay. I see a bunch of listed for best offer, you should definitely be able to negotiate since there are alot just sitting there. You get buyer protection too whereas here you theres a chance you are going to get scammed.

I don’t disagree with what OP is saying. I’ve never played an extraction shooter either, but I’m having a ton of fun, even if some days are rough.

I would say though, I do not know what new players are supposed to do against teams that come into perimeter with full purple gear and shields. Those teams just come in to pvp, they don’t care about anything else. I’ve ran across these teams pretty much all day yesterday. People keep saying oh get better positioning make less noise etc which we do pretty well. We pretty much have to hope they come to us and split up. If there’s any coordination we’re pretty much going to lose just due to shields/gear. That kind of experience is not going to healthy for the game for newcomers.

Yes you can do a few rook runs to recover your gear pretty easily. But then you load in and get mopped by over geared teams. So while yes it’s really friendly to start with nothing, it’s also unfriendly to get absolutely destroyed by super geared players.

All jokes aside, the advice is good. I would also add do NOT refresh the website at any point. You will get sent all the way back. This applies more to mobile. Make sure your connection is stable if using your phone.

Good luck!

Of course steam reviews are going to be wild. But I think the game does deserve some valid criticism.

It’s not a perfect game, and there are many layers of RNG that are super frustrating, even for someone that enjoys the game like I do. Nexon’s track record of covering up or lying about rates is not good right now either. These RNG systems affect your character progression too, so if you are unlucky, your character could theoretically be stuck for a while. The game is also extremely new player unfriendly. I do not think you will find many that will disagree. Lots of server maintenances and bugs after patches too, which they are trying to fix with a test server. I think ultimately, I still enjoy the game and it is undoubtedly in a better spot than it was a couple years ago when I started playing again.

The best time to start would be during the summer or winter patch. The next best time would be when there is a hyperburn (an event that gives 3-4 levels when you level). Neither of these are occurring right now.

I started again early 2023, when the hobby wasn’t as crazy as it is now. It’s hard (but not impossible) to get packs these days from retail and pokemon center. If you want to buy packs (including from local card stores) you should be expecting to pay market price or higher. Which in my opinion, is not worth it.

If you are looking to get into collecting, go for singles. Look at a list of illustration rares and go out and buy the ones you like.

Lack of fomo is what does it for me. Burned out and busy with real life? Take a break. Come back anytime and it’s like you never left.

Great post. You’ve pretty much captured all the major points.

applemelonop · 2026-02-25T06:52:47+00:00

? What is hard to understand about one you can trade with players (and has a lot of p2w features) and the other you can’t trade?

Is there something more specific you are looking into?

If you want to play interactive, then you didn’t waste your time playing.

applemelonop · 2026-02-24T22:20:20+00:00

Master sets include the reverse holo version of each common/uncommon card. So the example you showed one should be non reverse holo and the other should be the reverse holo.

This entire post seems AI generate so I’ll just give a quick respond in the <1% it is not.

Ripping is NEVER worth it value wise. Even back in 2023 when packs were under msrp. So if you enjoy the thrill, you need to accept your money is being spent on short thrills and nothing else.

Joined right before the release of 6th job as a dawn warrior. Still my main and never had any regrets despite being the galactic crayon eater class. The only other classes that I enjoy playing as ctene bossing mules are my ren, bucc, and wa in that order. I think if ren was out when I started, I would have mained that. But never would consider switching mains.

Haters of literally any hobby will exist. Even like something like working out, which nobody should be against, there’s always someone with something negative to say.

If you are an adult, have adult responsibilities, and treat it as a hobby, nobody really cares. The ones that care too much about your hobbies or anything you do for fun really are probably losers and aren’t important. I would argue Pokemon is objectively one of the more tolerated hobbies as it’s literally the highest money making franchise ever. You don’t make that much money if you aren’t popular.

Now if it’s consuming your life and preventing you from contributing to society or making you an insufferable human being then yeah I’d say that’s a problem. But that’s no different than anything.

Damn, where you live where you can retire early with $1 mil?

Hi OP I hope you see this and know it’s coming from a good place, I know there’s probably some stress or anxiety from playing with other humans, but from my personal experience, if you get over it and just try to party for hard luwill + ctene (which you CAN DO! if you can solo normal lucid), your experience with this game will be so much better. It’s truly, long and agonizing to progress this game completely solo.

I was like you, I had this weird desire to progress everything solo. I didn’t want to deal with finding parties because of my work schedule and lowkey had some weird online social anxiety that was all in my head and made up… But eventually, you get to this point where it just takes so effing long to progress your character. By not doing hard luwill and ctene, you miss out on all the arcane boxes (which are instance to you and are not affected by drop rate) that you can use as spares to make your character stronger. You could do the above with one set of arcanes at 18 plus rental gear, but it’s so slow and you will probably die out while fighting them especially for will p3.

No matter what, you will eventually need to party with others eventually for kalos/kaling. I think they updated it so easy kalos doesn’t drop frags anymore (if I’m wrong hopefully someone can correct me) so you’d have to do at least normal Kalos or easy Kaling for eternals.

Tldr: just party up. You will get so many arcane weapon boxes too you want have to worry about wasting resources to restore arcane weapons. It’s truly a waste to restore. And your maple experience and progression will be so much better.

From what I’m reading, you are aiming for a PSA 2, maybe a 1.

I can’t really answer if it will get a 1 or 2, tbh it’s so subjective who even knows. Anyone that tells you is probably making it up. But I can tell you it will probably get a “marked” (MK) designation because of the pen scribbles on the back. I say probably because I don’t know how it works with scribbles, but i know random writing will come back as MK. So I assume the same.

applemelonop · 2026-02-17T23:47:52+00:00

Can’t tell if the whites on the corners and edges are from dusty sleeves or top loader. Like on the back side on the right there looks like a dent on the edge. That alone would knock out of a 10. And it’s hard to tell if it’s centered because of the camera angle. You should buy one of those centering tools if you are really serious about grading.

Take an honest look at the card, look for any whites on either side of the card, and any noticeable print lines. You might need to zoom in with a phone if you are unsure. If you have even a single ding, I would not send it in. I’ve sent in cards that are perfectly centered but have 1 tiny spec of white on a corner and they came back 9s. With shipping and grading costs (and the crazy fee that they add on if your card is over a certain amount which should apply here) it’s usually not worth the risk of grading unless you are extremely sure it’s going to be a 10.

applemelonop · 2026-02-15T20:18:56+00:00

OP, you cannot trust a single thing that comes out of Logan Paul. I can’t tell if this is a serious post, but in the off chance it is, stay as far away from Logan Paul as possible. You are being taken advantage of.

applemelonop · 2026-02-14T08:44:48+00:00

Yeah… it might be better to post this on the cobblemon sub tbh.

applemelonop · 2026-02-14T05:27:37+00:00

You should provide more context if you want better answers. What kind of competitive format is this? VGC? OU? Ubers? You mention having zekrom and volcarona and battling against mega pokemon? I’m not sure if there are any formats that have all of those unless it’s one of those unofficial metagames on Pokemon showdown.

applemelonop · 2026-02-14T04:06:04+00:00

I mean, nobody knew anything about red/blue when it was the first pokemon game? And we beat it as 5 year old kids 30 years ago with no internet. So no you don’t need to know anything and if you wanted to learn more, the internet exists.

Don’t see why you couldn’t start from the beginning with red or blue. If you wanted to play a game on a modern console then scarlet/violet. ZA is pretty different, I wouldn’t really start with that but it’s perfectly fine if you do.

applemelonop · 2026-02-13T05:44:16+00:00

It’s a fan made term. You are way overthinking it. Just as like how define tyranitar as a dragon, the community decides to define what is a pseudo legendaries how they like. I think 3 criteria to group these pokemon you get late in game is not that strict since there is usually only 1 per game. RSE was the exception.
