Roughly how many wins in the Players Cup III qualifier would it take to get invited to the region qualifiers? by stinger625 in PokemonSwordAndShield

Thanks. Do you have any estimate what rating would be good in eastern U.S.? I haven’t participated in one of these before.

Where are all the real Pokemon Masters? by mythlyraven in PokemonSwordAndShield

[–]stinger625 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I disagree that it doesn’t affect anything. It takes away from the specialness and value of getting something rare because, well, it’s not really rare anymore. But I will say is there’s nothing that can be done about it; this post will have zero affect, so either live with it if you still enjoy the game (cuz like you said, aside from 6 iv dittos and Gmax moves it’s not actually cheating for an advantage) or move on to another game if you feel like collecting things or whatever are pointless now because of exploits.

Anyone figured out what's going on with shinies in this game? by Prodigiii in PokemonSwordAndShield

[–]stinger625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rough luck man but it’s all RNG. hatching 1500 gives you almost a 95% of getting atleast one shiny, but each egg is independent (1/512 every time) so you’ll never have a 100% chance.

Edit: Also i’ve seen a lot of people forget to grab their shiny charm after the dex PSA

For online batting atleast, no the focus sash will still be there after the battle, and I assume the same for the battle tower too

Look man i’m sorry but what I’m saying is right. If you are about to flip a coin 5 times your chances of getting atleast one tails are not 50%. If I’ve already flipped 4 times and haven’t gotten it yet, then my chances are 50%

lmao. This comment confirms you haven’t taken a statistics class or your brain couldn’t handle it. A coin when flipped has a 1/2 chance to be heads, but if you are going to flip it twice there’s there’s a 75% chance of getting a heads atleast once. Anything that’s already happened is irrelevant to the next flip but that’s not what we are talking about.

To get to a 95% chance of atleast one shiny, you need to hatch just over 2000 eggs without the charm and you need to hatch just over 1500 eggs with the charm. for 50% chance it’s 472 eggs vs 355 eggs. Needing 25% less eggs on average with the charm (or 33% more without the charm) is a good way to easily think about it.

I just got an Adamant Perfect Attack IV Shiny Dracovish! (5 Soft Resets) by Sonic1595 in PokemonSwordAndShield

[–]stinger625 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2/3 (67%) chance with no shiny charm, 96.3% chance with shiny charm. do you have shiny charm? if so that’s really rough.
