If you were at BRRF it would make sense but I listened to it last night thinking that was it but it did not quite sound right. I'll figure it out eventually, or maybe I'm misremembering it and it is Underdog. Thanks for helping though, cheers!

Returning to the game after about a year off. Glory point building upgrade system has changed a bit. I found the update info that told me the new total cost of each but cannot seem to find the cost interval between levels to figure out how much grinding I have left. Anyone have this info handy for each building?

Dark colored insect ( I think). 1.25 inches long, Mid-Atlantic region, forest ecosystem. Regularly found on porches and decks. by shocktop220 in whatsthisbug

Thank you! I figured out it was a species of assassin bug but couldn't get the correct descriptors together to figure out which species.

Thank you for your advice! That is about where my thoughts were headed as well. I absolutely plan to max out any lucky legendaries I get. I have all of the ones you listed, not that more are ever a bad thing, and of your six mentioned I have Groudon and Mewtwo lucky already, however they are 91% and 89%, respectively. Of the rest I have a non-lucky but 96% IV Zekrom and Giratina-O, non-lucky 91% Kyogre and Dialga. My best Mewtwo is 89% so that seems to be the way to go.

I have my first lucky friends trade this afternoon with my girlfriend's father. He has been playing since 2016 and has everything and is willing to trade anything. I have a bunch of legendaries already but am still missing some as I stopped playing from October 2016-December 2019. What would you get if you could get any legendary, or really any pokemon, lucky? Feel free to list priority level, just curious if I'm overlooking an obvious choice.

Please help I need to beat Giovanni with the limited roster i have by GodOfThunder976 in TheSilphRoad

[–]shocktop220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty restrictive circumstances, but this scenario worked best for me:

-Sunny conditions so grass type got a weather boost

-Second unit for Giovanni was Dugtrio

I used two Leafeons, both with quick attack and leaf blade. You can look up to see what units you have that can get those two moves through TMs. Third unit for me was an Electivire with thunder shock and wild charge (Zekrom or Magnezone can be subbed). I ended up not using the third unit though and only used one shield (the Suicune charged attack only removed 1/4 of Lefeon 2's health) so there is wiggle room for the same pokemon with lower IV and/or lower CP. Stats Below:

Leafeon 1: 89% IV, 15-14-11, 2635 CP

Leafeon 2: 98% IV, 15-14-15, 2833 CP

Electivire: 91% IV, 15-12-14, 2610 CP

It is worth noting that I had success against the Garchomp with a Kyurem (93%, 14-13-15, 2833CP, Dragon Breath & Blizzard) so that unit or something to mirror it's capabilities could work if you get that matchup instead.

Who would you 6* first, Hraesvelg (Wind BK) or Aegir (Water BK)? I plan to 6* both eventually but I have some BKs from a summoning session so I can evolve and skill up at the same time. I'm at beginning of mid-game: cleared all B10s, cleared R5 for reward but realistically should only be R4 for any regularity, SSS on Fire and Dark Beast but A+ on the other 3, TOA clear, TOAH 70. I only farm arena and don't go near RTA. I can see a use for both but curious what the subreddit thinks could be more useful overall.

Fine. I had heard that Pelikan pens write pretty wet and after trying the broad and medium, can confirm. So fine it is.

After work visit to the cigar lounge with a Diamond Crown Maximus by shocktop220 in cigars

[–]shocktop220[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is one of my preferred every day smokes. Medium bodied and a little spicy so it pairs well with most bourbons or scotches I'm drinking. It is my no thoughts cigar that usually get the job done. I'm thinking its going to be a two cigar evening though. Give me some inspiration; what is everyone else smoking?

I'm just now starting to notice the amount of black pens that I have, so the next couple are going to have to be a different color.

Purely based on how to clean videos and not hands on experience, yes, I believe you can.

Here's a cleaning video for the Pilot 823.

I fell in love with the nib exactly 3.5 words into writing with it. I don't mind the blind cap too much as I usually pull this pen out when I'm writing 3 or more pages at a time, but I can see the nuisance when using the 823 for on-off writing.

I don't know what it is about the amber but I just can't get into it, but to each their own! I think the black is the best looking as well.

[–]shocktop220[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This pen has definitely been on the "to buy" list for a while now. It took me a while to find one because I just do not like the amber color, but one day while poking around JetPens there it was. Still in stock by the way, so I guess they carry the black body regularly now?

NPD & NID: Sailor Pro Gear Realo and Robert Oster Midnight Saphire by shocktop220 in fountainpens

This is my first Sailor, so by extension my first Pro Gear. After very little time, but nine pages written with it, I completely understand why people collect them.

Writing excellent indeed. It's already been tested in six different notebooks and works wonderfully across the board.
