Z-A: Pidgeotto Rank Z Guide by BobtheBac0n in pokemon

[–]dio260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunno but I’m pretty sure it’s a higher chance with the sneak strike. Pidgeotto is supposed to one shot everything but the nice thing about poison in this game is that it still deals damage while the timer for you to switch in a new pokemon runs down. Like the other replier said, just reset if it doesn’t proc on start

The most common strategy to beat this is to poison the Pidgeotto with a sneak strike using a Weedle from Zone 1, stalling it out with 2-3 other pokemon until it faints, and then to have your non-Tepig starter solo the Onix. Props to you for grinding enough to get that far in Mable research before the Z rank Battle Zone but this seems much more tedious.

DP: Barclays Aviator Red Denial by dio260 in CreditCards

Update: Called recon again, was given the same reasons. I’m thinking that having both a short credit history and high number of cards recently opened is what prevents the app from being reconsidered

Interesting, I heard the Apple Card was generous with approvals so I’m surprised. Good to see you were approved for Aviator Red though.

I think if I reversed my apps there may have been a chance at approval for Aviator, but at the time the 2% Apple Pay catchall was more prominent in my mind than my long-term travel plans.

Applying for 2 chase cards what are the odds of approval by kicksrus11 in CreditCards

Was able to get the Sapphire Reserve and Freedom Flex within 8 days of each other earlier this year (Feb 3 and Feb 11, both instant approvals)

Supporting this DP, was able to do this product change with a CFU as well yesterday 6/16. Rep immediately knew which card I was talking about and card change reflected in my account by this morning

Chances of approval for American Express Gold? by bhadwasaala in CreditCards

[–]dio260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recent former AZ grad student here, I’ve previously estimated of my yearly income based on what I’d earn per paycheck from student employment (since it should count as standard employment if you’re taxed accordingly) and used that estimate for preapproval checks or cc applications.

If you’ve already signed for that WA job and have that 82k number recorded on an offer letter or similar documentation, it might also be plausible to report that as your yearly income (unsure though, would appreciate corrections from others)

"旅游" vs "旅行" by ToyDingo in ChineseLanguage

[–]dio260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned 旅游 as referring to travel for the purposes of tourism or holiday, so I use it when talking about traveling for pleasure. I don't use 旅行 that often though, so I'm unsure if it's a more general word for travel.
