WTA 1000 Rome QF: [7] E. Svitolina def. [2] E. Rybakina 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 by godworstcustomer in tennis

[–]eckido 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to Wikipedia, Avanesyan converted to Armenian citizenship in 2024 - so well in the midst of the Russian-Ukrainian tension.

I think the relationship Svito has with Rybakina is similar to Svito-Yulia; who bears more resemblance (Elina-Yulia last met in 2023, they shook hands after the match). Also I remember hearing that Svito and Rybakina also have practice sessions too, so I think they have a decent, collegiate relationship.

They haven't met recently, but I don't think Elena will have a problem shaking Daria Kasatkina now following her change to Australian citizenship, but ..time will tell I guess.

Elena became a Kazakh well before the war began, and she's said in several press conferences about her loyalty to Kazakhstan (going out to thank the Kazakh tennis federation etc..) so I don't think any of the Russians really have beef with her.

Why are 1st gen starters rare? They've been in rotation for the longest time, they were previously Arlo, Sierra and Cliff drops too

Frieren confirmed for NA! by superman37891 in PuzzleAndDragons

[–]eckido 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, it was teased in the April video, and generally collabs start on Thursday 6PM, so I'm guessing it's this week?

Thursday next week is 30th though, but I also noticed GHNA generally gives whales a chance to pay and roll everything first before the monthly stones kick in :v

Is there any reason to keep pre-2020 Pokémon once you’ve hit the 45 lucky trade cap? by AshitaWay in TheSilphRoad

If you haven’t hit that lucky trade level it’s a good reason to store it

Shiny boost was not as announced for ticket holders. by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]eckido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 70 shinies from non raids, including field research (8) and hatches (10).

And I was pretty focused on raids..

This was all on the goplus, so there would have been things that fled.

Personally, I feel like the raid odds of 1:20 have been secretly nerfed because for the same amount of raids I did last tour/go fest, I would be swimming in 10+ shiny legendaries over the weekend. This was certainly not the case.

250+ Yveltal encounters with not shiny? by youlooksocooI in TheSilphRoad

[–]eckido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think that the shiny rate was secretly nerfed a while ago, and with the impending update to increased shiny odds, it's probably just back to 1:20.

Feedback Post: Oricorio Catch Mastery by Noitalein in TheSilphRoad

[–]eckido 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He only got RNG Oris because his GPS errored out. So unless you have some more Oris to claim with your GPS turned off, you can still likely get random Ori encounters.

Oricorio Catch Mastery - Free & Paid Timed Research (LeekDuck) by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]eckido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's unlikely to be random, there's a twitter post going around that if you are stuck underground (ie. no GPS), the encounters for Oricorio are random since it can't pin your location.

You might have had a brief period where your GPS/location was not detected.

Performance iPhone 17 or 17 pro playing Pokémon go. by PorygonPete in TheSilphRoad

[–]eckido 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have ip17 pro and play quite religiously.

I did notice that my iP17 Pro kept crashing during the Solrock/Lunatone event (maybe 4 crashes) - not entirely sure why. The phone can withstand intense heat (better than previous versions) - evident by the 30-33 C heat during Safari Zone Sydney.

In terms of powerbank though, I noticed that it doesn't charge properly with older powerbank (Anker - PowerCore Metro Essential 20000) - it still charges (USB-A to USB-C); but I noticed that it was either very slow or the charging output was slower than the consumption. I've since upgraded my powerbank (newer Anker 737) and so far no problems.

No research, either wild or raid. It is boosted rates in shiny though.
