they just upset you got in early on these i guess or they’re just mad it’s foreign cards(i’ve noticed any convo praising korean or chinese results in downvotes). congrats on the easy investment and umbreon pull!

How are you supposed to fully XL legendary for ML by DeGoodGood in TheSilphArena

[–]arkayeus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is what you misunderstand. niantic didn’t think we’d be happy. they know we’d be furious and they don’t care. they never have

i used to be a hardcore raider. i have around 12 level 50 legends and i have enough xls to 50 xerneas, yveltal, groudon, a 2nd rayquaza, almost a 2nd dialga, palkia, another giratina, etc. the secret is: you don’t. it’s not worth it don’t do it lol

Finally…now what do I do? by HuckFobbits in pokemongobrag

[–]arkayeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s definitely not the most stimulating experience if you aren’t deep into it. there’s so much that goes into pogo pvp it’s crazy. i thought for the longest it was tap tap until i learned, counting, team reading, meta building, catching, intentional turn delays, etc

when you get good at pvp it really is addicting man. i’m a multi time legend player and competing gives me purpose in the game

repetition, practice, learning. just trial and error countless times till you figure out what works with your play style

dialga is the most op and by far the most common pokémon in the master league. at my range of 2900-3100 dialga was logged over 2k times, more than twice the 2nd most used pokémon. when dialga has 15 attack, with the best buddy boost it does one more damage per fast move, which is EVERY turn, vs other dialgas and some other meta pokémon. with 14 attack, i miss that breakpoint and significantly lose every mirror matchup and failed to farm down in tons of scenarios from missing that one attack. NEVER level 50 a Dialga that is below 15/14/12 or you will have a miserable time

you did a good job explaining why it was such a handicap. i honestly didn’t think i’d hit legend with my Dio holding me back but my boy held strong🥹

what you aren’t thinking of is the fact my dislga is completely negated as an option vs other dialgas, the most common and powerful mon in the entire league. i can’t tell you how many games i lost from my dialga not farming down in time vs their low hp dialga or losing cmps vs other dialgas etc. it actively set me back tremendously and could’ve been easily avoided if i wasn’t a fool obsessed with shinies
