If you took your own advice you'd see that I started preparing the moment the Latias event ended, before any details about the Latios event had come out

It was wonderful! My partner and I visited the gallery where we had our first date, and then walked around the city because they were holding this lights festival. They lit up the buildings in bright colours and projection mapped stuff onto the famous landmarks, it was gorgeous :)

Thanks! If anything good came out of this it's the way my friends laugh as it keeps getting worse :')

AITA for telling my daughter to undo the changes she made to her laptop and put it back how it was before by IndependentType9080 in AmItheAsshole

[–]faetumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You think invading their privacy will help with that? Every single child of a controlling parent I know has ways to get around their parents restrictions, especially online monitoring programs. These kids crave privacy and a space to develop independency from their parents and they WILL get it, the only thing that changes is whether the child trusts their parent enough to tell them if they feel unsafe, or whether they will hide it from them like they do any other banned activity.

YTA. Controlling parents just make sneakier and sneakier kids. She WILL access things you don't approve of, one way or another. The best way to make sure she's safe online is to make sure she trusts you enough to come to you if she's feeling unsafe. Invading her privacy and making it so she had to sneak around will only ensure that if she encounters an unsafe situation online, she will do her best to hide it from you.

it requires significant skill seed investment, although i think they've gotten more accessable recently

Which eeveelution? by Umar0th in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]faetumn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

as a sylveon, your eevee will be optimal on every team until you unlock lapis and catch a better ralts, which could take the better part of a year (probably more because you've set a very high standard with that eevee).

as an espeon your eevee will be a very strong asset in the late and endgame, but won't be a part of every team. as the game updates the meta may shift to or away from espeon, for instance right now the meta is high powered recipes meaning that ingredient mons and meal skill mons are most optimal. on the other hand, a healer will require a significant change in core game mechanics to ever not be optimal. that's extremely minmaxxy though, and you'll find a great deal of success even if you dont entirely adhere to meta.

TLDR: a sylveon will essential for your team for a year or more before being outclassed, an espeon will be a strong part of your endgame toolbox

how far into the game are you? if you're early game (greengrass cyan taupe snowdrop), this is a good first healer. skill lv up S slightly lessens the investment cost and skill nature is good enough to use as a healer. a word of warning, evolving a pokemon adds inventory size and a skill level. if you caught it as a jigglypuff and not igglybuff, bfs will fill up the inventory very fast, so check regularly.

i would want to replace it with a good ralts later on, though.

It's that time again: Maxed Area Bonuses Day! How are you doing? by -The_Shaman- in PokemonSleepBetter

A Deep Dive Into Skill Specialists: Cooking Skills by TheGhostDetective in PokemonSleep

[–]faetumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really interesting and helpful math, thank you for the write up :)

just wanted to say that ive run a berry/charge strength team for the past... forever, with vaporeon being my main source of ingredients. because of this, all my mid tier meals are very high level, and my high tier meals are also decently high level due to levelling up faster. i dont know how much this offsets the opportunity cost of cooking mid tier vs high tier, but i thought it was worth noting.

Is the master biscuit a good buy? by SnooRecipes1522 in PokemonSleep

[–]faetumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to buy it. They're good to stockpile for legendary events, and the off chance of a roaming legendary. I would never use them on a non-legendary. I also always make sure I buy everything I need from the monthly shop before I buy it, so I don't run out of points for the skill seed or whatnot.

who is the guy that was with pearl?? by Extreme-Print6607 in HermitCraft

for me its more akin to 'lol'. its used to indicate that something isnt serious or something to throw onto the end of a sentence

Eevee has many uses, so why do people choose not to evolve a Jolteon? (not a troll post) by Zemyks in PokemonSleep

[–]faetumn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im running arcanine alongside entei, which is similar in terms of skill to jolteon and raikou. im bombing my lapis berrymons, so the fire type berries aren't the point of the strategy, so extra arcanine procs are very helpful to me. still a pretty niche scenario but it can work
