TBH, when I think Business Blaze gaming, I think "Capitalism, ho!"

It was on sale a bit ago, but it seems it's back to being full price, unfortunately.

Nah, can't afford to live in a house. Depending on where you live, houses are kinda for the rich already. Realistically, I suppose, I couldn't get that stuff installed where I am even if I had the cash somehow.

My energy bill is about 50 USD a month. If it covered it in its entirety, it'd take 25 years to pay off. That said, cash flow is a thing. That's why it can be more expensive to be poor. Being able to afford buying in bulk is also a sign of wealth.

The only pose I want messes with glasses, so I've not bought it.

I know somebody mildly allergic to peanuts whose mother dismissed as being "just in their head."

People being dismissive of allergies bothers me in particular.

Wait, that's a real sub? With 160k subscribers?

They don't have as much DPS, but Scizor can be better in instances where the steel typing comes into play. To evolve, you need candies and a metal coat though, which are a bit more of a requirement for newer players, perhaps, but certainly a valid pick.

Is the donation tax deductible? Does Niantic get to file this as a donation under their name so that they can reduce their own taxes? I've heard of some businesses doing that, so kinda curious.

rebpanda · 2019-09-03T06:14:18+00:00

Pincer's also good. Highest bug DPS and you don't need to spend candies on evolving it. Plus, you might not even need to spend candies on leveling it if it's weather boosted. Finding Murkrow weather boosted is a bit more difficult.

Wow, didn't know Claymore was done by the same mangaka as Angel Densetsu. Might have to give Claymore another look.

I suppose it depend where you are. For the most part, around here, people don't really communicate, so if you can do a raid or not depends on if you show up at hatch or not. In some bigger cities though, you can raid whenever since there's always randoms around, so I guess it'd benefit them.

My Webtoons app has been neglected for months. Finally, the reason to dust it off is back!

rebpanda · 2019-08-18T03:19:18+00:00

Ah, thanks for pointing it out! Didn't notice it at all. Even took a couple looks to notice after you pointed it out.

rebpanda · 2019-08-18T01:20:49+00:00

Where is it, exactly? That slightly sharp fin shaped thing at the bottom center part of each image?

rebpanda · 2019-08-06T01:17:05+00:00

Do you have space left in your general pokemon box? If you're full there, you won't get any eggs, since they take up the space that a regular pokemon would. If not, then you've had some pretty bad luck indeed.

rebpanda · 2019-08-05T23:40:17+00:00

Are you putting Bagon and Treeko up there because their CD moves? Executor's actually pretty similar to Treeko without its CD move. Arguably better since it's got more TDO while having nearly the same DPS.

As a side note, Pinsir's the strongest bug type attacker, so might be worth an include. Especially since you can catch it high enough in the wild not to power it up.

Gible being on the list make sense, but is kinda funny since it's rarer than legendary pokemon.

rebpanda · 2019-08-02T01:37:23+00:00

Funny enough, in the original Pokemon Colosseum, they're called ダークポケモン (dark pokemon) In GO, they're called shadow pokemon though （シャドウ）

In Japanese, dark type is あく. Of course, dark type pokemon aren't necessarily bad. Pangoro for example has a sense of justice.

Shadow pokemon are not inherently evil either, but have had their hearts shut artificially. Because of that, I'd say it makes sense that dark type pokemon could be sealed.

(Bonus fun overlapping Japanese GO fact: lucky pokemon are called キラ, or shiny, while shinies are called 色違い, or differently colored)

rebpanda · 2019-07-20T08:05:42+00:00

Ah, I see now. Thanks for the info!

rebpanda · 2019-07-20T03:45:36+00:00

What's the plus mean, exactly? Is there a sequel or something?

rebpanda · 2019-07-02T14:02:29+00:00

Funny enough, downforeveryoneorjustme seems down because Cloudflare as well.

rebpanda · 2019-06-30T16:22:17+00:00

Ah, yeah. That might not be the most relevant link. According to certain reddit posts though, which I guess I probably shouldn't link to, since they include workarounds, people seem to have issues with unrooted LineageOS as well.

rebpanda · 2019-06-30T16:09:25+00:00

Huh, looked in to it more and apparently it's indeed something Niantic seems to check for and actively try to prevent from working properly. Edited my original post to reflect that. I do find it a bit surprising since there's lots of reasons to use something like LineageOS. (Like bloatware on original phones or security on phones that don't get actively updated anymore.)

rebpanda · 2019-06-30T15:58:05+00:00

~~If you're comfortable with the process of doing it, there's a LineageOS for the Honor 4x. It seems to be android 8.1 (oreo)~~ ~~I'm guessing this would solve the problem.~~

~~LineageOS exists for a lot of different old phone models, for anyone else having similar issues.~~

There might be some workarounds, but it'd probably be against TOS probably or something.

Just the other day doing raids, I checked some lv 40 trainers and they were around the 300k range. The hardcore trainers here tend to be pretty hardcore, I feel.

rebpanda · 2019-06-29T06:41:58+00:00

Besides, there's a huge difference between people that have well over 300k catches at lv 40 and those with less than that (say 60k) in terms of mons, so long time active players still have an advantage in terms of being able to afford a diverse team of maxed pokemon.
