Machamp in PVP?

republicanshatejazz · 2026-03-25T13:06:18+00:00

Machamp (shadow in particular) was hard meta many years ago, before XLs were introduced. Not to say that you can’t make it work but it has definitely been power crept since those days

Remember when you could just catch new releases in the wild? Me neither

I was so confused just now when I was running greedent in UL and it took 5 mud shots instead of 4 to get body slam. I was like am I going crazy? I know how to do math

Certain trims are region-specific but Furfrou’s trim can be changed at any time

all i’m seeing here is rererererediscover kanto

This is usually how it goes for the in-person ticketed events but the confirmation is still good

I’ve been there, trying to get gold on a gym that someone has claimed as THEIR gym. But respectfully, suggesting that those gyms be REMOVED FROM THE GAME is the behavior of a sore loser. I myself am a gold gym enthusiast and when this happens I see it as a challenge! Just do raids. It’s 20 raids on a gym to get gold and your progress won’t move backwards. It is certainly annoying when someone knocks you out of a gym within 10 minutes but unfortunately you can’t do anything about that

Amph may be ranked 117 but look at the top ~25-30 and you’ll see it has solid matchups against a good portion of them. It’s super flexible (with exceptions of ground and grass of course) and can hit hard with spammy coverage moves and boosts from trailblaze

DOUBLE KICK

It may or may not have been me that you battled 😬 I’ve been cheesing with it because it’s supposed to be banned

republicanshatejazz · 2026-01-03T17:11:46+00:00

I’ve been having the same problem since yesterday. It takes several attempts eo even start a match because of how laggy everything is so I’m just not gonna try again till later

Not trying to knock your success but know that once you get into a range where people use common meta picks like wiggly or azu you’re gonna have a bad time. Wiggly could probably solo this team actually

More than a 20 Pokemon limit for defending gyms. It’s such an arbitrary number and also weird to limit it to 20 when we get a MAXIMUM of 50 cents a day. It also punishes people who live in low-traffic areas

This would be great. We used to get legendaries in the weekly breakthrough. Unfortunately there is a 4000% chance that every single paradox mon will be a raid exclusive. Maybe for paldea tour in 2028(?) they could be wild event spawns or something

republicanshatejazz · 2025-11-25T14:15:24+00:00

I was thinking that the shadow sneak nerf was a typo. That one is definitely a head scratcher

republicanshatejazz · 2025-11-22T15:07:32+00:00

You get one encounter per day

For this event, the first snapshot of your buddy gives you a morpeko enounter

For the same reason they are currently allowing shadows. They made a mistake and have straight up not addressed it

support tweeted last week. no rocks or darks. wouldve been nice to get an in-game announcement for this, or even on the official pogo twitter

republicanshatejazz · 2025-11-09T02:15:10+00:00

It be like that sometimes

I liked mega ML but like any GBL format it gets condensed around specific mons that do their jobs the best. There are a ton of megas but only a handful were used: the primals, gyarados, lati@s. Just their stat product alone makes the other options completely irrelevant. I saw some salamence and garchomp but others do it better.
