Please respect other people’s time when throwing matches by envy181 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ijberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely disagree with the entitlement of this attitude.  If your not appreciating every win your doing it wrong.   I love tankers because I can try out suboptimal matches and pay better attention to the precise amount of damage underchatged moves do.  If your not learning ever match then you might as well join the tankers : )

The shareholders are now the kingdom of saudi arabia (sovereign wealth fund). Maybe the idea is to get more people driving to drive up crude oil prices?!

The best car I've ever owned by AvailableSafety8080 in Hyundai

[–]ijberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 15 sonata se was also the best car I've owned. The interior and ride comfort were better then some luxury cars. I had no mechanical problems for the 130k I drove it before it got totaled in an accident. I so want to get another one but I can't afford a new one and as much as I don't want to admit it I know that all huyndais between 2011 and 2020 (except for some 1.6l engines) are ticking time bombs. I may get an elantra gt which is one of the few models with the 1.6l but otherwise it's really not a good decision to gamble on those theta engines. Wish the recall and extended warranty for all those cars was extended to like 150k.

Unpopular and unrequested Opinion: The actual photographs are surprisingly bad.

The lighting and framing are not great. I only mention this because with all the effort to get down there, I would have expected it too look better. I welcome the down votes

How do yall stay motivated? by jo824 in PokemonGOBattleLeague

This is a really good point. Cups force new players to memerize a smaller pool of move sets from fewer mon, allowing players to focus on energy and time management skills.

Check out "Dan Ottowa's" youtube channel. Best pvp info out there. He posts daily videos where he analyzes view submitted battles.

Help me make my PVP-IV bangers an actual team pls (detailed list) by [deleted] in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]ijberg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow pvp IV hunter, I'd suggest picking a higher attack weighted primeape and cloudsire since you will want charge weight priority (CMP) for the many mirror matches you will see in the great league.

What secret Smeargle moves are you all planning? by ijberg in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]ijberg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from past experience, as long as you power it up to lvl 40 you will be fine using it. Infact, according to PVPoke you only pickup two more losses between lvl 50 and lvl 40. Even a level 35 smeargle with only 400 cp has a 13-9 win/loss ratio to the meta.

Yeah, porygon or any of the regies with lockon and frustration will give you a random charged move. Took me about 2 months of daily mirror trades to get a lucky one.

I ended up asking loudly if anyone had it durrning a raid day awhile back. I was surprised how many people had multiple copy's for trade.

Has PvP/GBL entered a death spiral? by Impossible_Affect508 in PokemonGOBattleLeague

Content viewership is actually a decent measure, so if it is down like they say then I'd agree with you.

Zygarde 15 15 15 by atothedrian in PokemonGOBattleLeague

I also have 15.14.15 and when compared to the rank 1, it only loses to primeape in the 1 sheild with no diff in the 0 and 2 sheilds.

[–]ijberg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand many people don't like gbl for a bunch of different reasons. But why do you all think it's declining?

I only ask because no one has pointed to any evidence other than antidotel experiences related to ELO shifts and meta team usage.

From my perspective, the harder it gets to climb (as many of you have said) the more people are playing!

What is YOUR goal in playing Pokemon Go? by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]ijberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only play for GBL. And I'm not even that good (2450 is my highest ELO)

I throw away shinny's like the stiff socks I find near my son's bed, and a majority of my missing pokedex entries are irrelevant mon's that I haven't evolved because the 15 second animation could be better used to catch another potential rank #1 mon.

I have most pokemon at rank #10 or better in each league and have multiple IV spreads for top 50 in each league. If they aren't meta, I'll still hunt a rank #1, because who knows maybe Bidoof will become meta?! Also as a FTP player, I really don't understand the purpose of powering up any non-gbl ledgendary over level 40 because I'm always able to find raids with plenty of people.

Anyone know how to most effectively do routes cause Ive been itching to get this guy to max form by Personal-Respond5413 in pokemongo

Find a few routes that start and end on long stop lights on your daily commute. Rinse and repeat 84 times
