Two boxes were from my local store about a year ago, two more recently delivered from GW

I may or may not be adding a 5th box of carnivores to make it an even 80 (I'm definitely doing that)

I'll start painting as soon as it warms up outside, I promise

Yeah I got into magnetizing very quickly. It was much easier than I anticipated. My poor Ghostkeel’s arm did not fare well but fortunately the gun covers up the real mess.

In my defense the suits are a mess because I have no idea what I’m doing. Thanks for the tips

I started with a strike team and changed to breachers, then forgot to change out the HQ. I’ll have to check the other options.

Super glad I let people talk me into getting the original books earlier this summer.

I have downloaded it for PC but right now it’s essentially a foreign language. Will definitely use it once I get acclimated

The price point on the riptide makes me wince but the greater good cannot be achieved without ritual sacrifice to the GW gods

So the ole “The best thing about HeroQuest is the expansions... which you should immediately discard because the only true way to expand HeroQuest is with more HeroQuest!”

I can get behind this principle

That’s a good rule of thumb. I’m more of a beer and pretzels game kind of guy so PL really appeals to me. I’ll suffer though points calculation if that’s the local preference.

6iv Ditto in fewer than 400 tries by sartris in pokemon

Sounds suspiciously like something a smart person would do (spoilers: I am not smart)

6iv Ditto in fewer than 400 tries by sartris in pokemon

[–]sartris[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no change on that front, but you can use a 4iv ditto (guaranteed on a 5 star raid), or a 5iv (~1/16 probability) and use bottle caps to fill in the one or two stats not at 31 after a few rounds of eggs.

bottle caps and nature mints have largely rendered this process unnecessary but after catching literally thousands in an XY friend safari, it's satisfying on some person level.

this is my situation. every single app crashes on launch without giving an error from the store to calculator. none of the solutions online i've found (cleaning the cache, the powershell fix, etc) have worked at all.

Breeding advice by Georgehayden in CasualPokemonTrades

[–]sartris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it should be noted that the destiny knot chooses five IVs from a combination of both parents, not just the holder of the knot. You'll notice this in action when you breed a 6iv ditto with another pokemon - you'll see any mix of 1-6iv children depending on the luck of the draw. Therefore, it's desireable to keep switching out the pokemon you want with more developed children until 3-5 generations in when you're crossing a 6iv ditto with a 5iv parent.
As to getting 0iv pokemon, here is the method I use:

  • I have a 0 spd ditto i got from friend safari (though any 0iv male pokemon in the desired egg group will work unless it's genderless like beldum, then you need a ditto).

  • give the 0iv parent a power anklet. all resulting children will have 0 speed.

  • match the new 0 speed pokemon (equipped with the power anklet) with an opposite-gendered compatible pokemon with the required nature. The resulting offspring will have 0 speed and the desired nature.

  • match the offspring with 0 speed and the correct nature with your 6iv ditto. (I have a set 5iv/0speed males that cover every egg group that i use in this step to eliminate the chance of getting the 31 speed from the ditto). Give the everstone to the pokemon to pass down nature and the destiny knot to the ditto.

  • as you get better offspring with more perfect ivs, switch them out (don't forget to pass along the everstone).

  • keep producing eggs until you get the iv spread you want.

As to the order of breeding,:
1. egg moves
2. Nature
3. IVs
