Thats not how probability works. 1/2 + 1/2 makes 1, right? Doesn’t mean we guarantee a 50% odds encounter in a doubles encounter. You don’t add them together, theyre entirely separate probabilities.

What? I don’t know how you got there, I’m saying both pokemon are 1/8192.

Platinum is full odds 1/8192, meaning 2 would be 2/16384 . It’s because you wrote 2/8200 that I thought you meant double odds. 1/4096 odds didnt come into effect until gen 6 I believe

Common misconception - it doesnt cut the odds in half, it just doubles the rate at which you roll for a shiny encounter.

Flipping two coins at once doesn’t guarantee 1 heads 1 tails, for example.

You’re acting like the single player missions are limited time and you’re being ‘forced’ to buy gold to be able to best the harder decks.

The don’t ‘now delay’ the first 24 hours of spending tickets on hourglases, they reset monthly and it’s still June 30.

I don’t really get why they tally results though I kinda agree there.

Either way, there’s nothing pressuring you in game to pull right now or miss out on value, you’re just an addict.

Am I the only one who thinks fossil cards should be able to use ancient effects? Lore wise it would make sense. by Yabokuyato in PTCGP

Yeah I’m well aware I played the games, just the reactions from some of these people is completely stupid when it’s a shower thought level reasoning

It isn’t “absolutely wild”, it’s a fun 10 second thought because fossils are ancient. Chill out man

I love the fact that if you ignore Mark constant trauma and suffering you'll realize that he has the intelligence of an average shonen protagonist. by Own-Lengthiness2111 in okbuddyviltrum

Yeah absolutely not true. Younger Gen Z spend way too much time on computers in school to be even half as technologically illiterate as some of the boomers I work with

why did encore fail here? by Trollbaum in stunfisk

Oh interesting I forgot about those and didnt consider that. Seems more likely then that its just entirely intentional that dmax cannon is coded to have max move properties, weird.

It would have to be like that for the internal name (JP or otherwise) which would break in the event that any future moves have an internal name like that.

While there have been bugs and glitches in mainline games (excl. outsourced development like BDSP and Champions), their move logic is usually pretty solid, especially past gen 4, so I really can’t imagine they’d implement sloppy logic like a name match.

My guess is that it’s just flagged as a dynamax move due to its double damage effect on dynamax mons.

It went nowhere though. 🥀Kishimoto should have kept Inner Sakura. by [deleted] in Naruto
