Mizznox 01/30/20 1:10:05 AM #467 | Alpha218 posted... I just trained up an Azumarill and Altaria because I read those are good for great league Great choices. I've been running a Kingdra+Azumarill combo, 5-0 and haven't even had to bring in a third Pokemon yet. (and Altaria is better overall than Kingdra) --- |

Mizznox 01/22/20 6:17:20 PM #424 | Yeah, Minccino will be a permanent addition to 5k eggs. The weird part to me is the timing of the event - the San Francisco-based company is putting on a limited-time event with the Super Bowl featuring San Francisco's team starting halfway through in their time zone. https://pokemongolive.com/en/post/feb2020-cd-voting/ I'd prefer not to see repeat CDs outside of the year-end recaps, don't really care which we end up with as long as it's not Dratini. All have their interesting points (if you're into PVP at least - if not, it's pretty much Rhyhorn all the way). --- |

Are you getting Adventure Sync distance at work/gym? I probably get 20-25 km/week just from AS at work, at least that much from drift at home, then just getting in walks (fair amount of dog sitting in recent weeks helps) and normal gameplay. --- |

Mizznox 01/10/20 6:22:13 PM #375 | kingdrake2 posted... as for moltres please use a TM to rid of return and give it a move of your choosing (flying is viable for moltres) if i remember. fire is also good. You can't TM to any Flying charged moves on Moltres, Sky Attack was event exclusive. Conkeldurr doesn't really threaten Lucario, it just takes Machamp's place as the slower but bulkier (situational) option. --- |

Mizznox 12/16/19 2:10:37 AM #217 | Successful enough CD weekend. Got the PVP evos I needed and a few extras of the useful PVE ones. Didn't need to do any shiny hunting but came away with two more Bagon and Trapinch and a Treecko. Finally got some Meteor Mash Metagross on my alt, so I could finally reliably duo Terrakion... now that it goes away in a day and a half, lol. At least easy Virizion duos are coming next. --- |

Mizznox 12/12/19 4:07:30 PM #202 | Synchronoise is only useful for PVP (even then, it's only marginally better than Psychic). For gyms/raids, Psychic all the way. Outrage is also better than Draco Meteor for Dragonite. Similar performance in a vacuum, much more reliable as a 2-bar move. --- |

Then something about letting the NFL know you don't think he should be allowed to be captain of the 2020 Pro Bowl? Seems like someone just made it all up to troll social media. --- |

Mizznox 12/02/19 8:47:02 PM #148 | And even more important, make sure you're winning those battles (I know some players like to just throw in their lowest CP Pokemon to get through it ASAP). Team leaders only ever give 300 dust bundles if you lose. Result/league don't matter for PVP, though. --- |
Topic | Shaq is a ho for advertising >_> |
Mizznox 12/02/19 7:56:33 PM #16 | IIRC, he's always been pretty adamant about only advertising products he actually uses/feels strongly about. Like with The General, they were the company he used for his first car back in the 80s. --- |

Mizznox 11/26/19 1:13:36 PM #9 | Super Batter Up for the SNES Probably like the 10th most popular baseball game on the SNES, but it's the one I had as a kid and I mastered that thing, played it regularly well into adulthood. Got a buddy of mine into it in high school as well, we eventually went so far as to poke around a rom with a hex editor and create our own lineups. Largely unknown and if you really lined them up it I'm sure it was objectively worse than some of its contemporaries, but for me it was iconic. Like, I wouldn't be surprised if my friend and I combined to put more hours into that game than the rest of the world combined. --- |

Mizznox 11/23/19 10:08:54 PM #89 | You get rewards from 1 team leader battle and 3 pvp battles each day. For the team leader battle, you must win to have a chance at anything besides dust, and Master League gives better odds for a stone (~10%) than the others (~6%). For pvp battles, league and result doesn't matter, odds are always the same - ~15% for a stone Like a 1/7 chance of getting a Sinnoh stone (and the same odds for a Unova stone) from your research breakthrough. Defeating the Rocket leaders and Giovanni has a chance of dropping the stones, too. --- |

Got myself a 100% Murkrow a couple days ago, will have to prep that one up for Virizion raids. Gonna have to track down Giovanni today and finish off the Looming in the Shadows research. Excited for December CD weekend, finally get myself a Great League level Frenzy Plant Venusaur and Last Resort Umbreon. --- |

Mizznox 11/13/19 1:37:30 PM #20 | Maybe if I can get it for cheap somewhere down the road. I've recently been getting back into the main series (playing through Alpha Sapphire and Ultra Sun, after one time each through Diamond and Fire Red years ago had been my only experience post-gen 2) so it's been on my radar, but it's looking pretty bad. Definitely going to stick to other generations I've missed out on first. --- |

Mizznox 11/07/19 3:36:49 AM #175 | PatrickMahomes posted... DrizztLink posted...Yes, but only A Vulpix/Ninetales, not regular. Evolved forms can't be found shiny anyways, only base forms. The only sorta exceptions are Pikachu (franchise mascot gets to be the exception to everything) and Roselia (since its shiny form came out before Budew was released), and a couple specifically temporary ones (Nidorina/Nidoqueen for like two days for an event, Gengar for its raid day). Kinda silly, but yeah, don't throw passes at evolved forms if you're looking for shinies. Gotta get the base stage shiny then evolve it. --- |

As soon as you open the box, you can start earning stamps again. You're not locked out of research again until you've earned another breakthrough box, at which point you have to catch the previous one to be able to open the new one. --- |

Mizznox 10/25/19 10:53:13 PM #80 | LostForest posted... Mizznox posted... Bruh, 15 is a tiny stretch of bad luck, lol. It's a ~15% chance for trainer battles and ~10% for team leader battles. 3 battles and 1 battle per day, respectively, you're bound to start averaging a few per week. https://thesilphroad.com/science/pvp-rewards-analysis/ LostForest posted... I do those too! D: I only get stardust from them. Are the rates better with the Ultra League? Cuz I usually do the middle one. Yeah, for team leaders the best odds are in Master League - and you must win the battle to have a chance at anything but dust. For trainer battles, league and result don't matter, always the same odds. --- |

Mizznox 10/25/19 7:46:38 PM #75 | PatrickMahomes posted... Mizznox posted...how many constant issues they still have Like nearly every update introducing a new bug or reintroducing an old one. GO Plus users in particular have to be wary of every update because there's a good chance it'll break connectivity. Like an hour ago when New Zealand suddenly got Trapinch Community Day happening again, because Japan's make-up day starts in a couple hours and apparently Niantic didn't think to limit it to the appropriate region. Like yesterday when they unintentionally released access to Wayfarer for a while before rolling it back. Like a couple days before that when they accidentally switched on next week's Colossal event for a while. Like shiny forms accidentally being removed temporarily (happened like 7 or 8 times now). Like all the times they've had to reschedule Community Days or Raid Days because they don't activate them properly or the servers take a dump. Like players using certain Redmi phone models being inexplicably banned through zero fault of their own. On and on... Niantic is notorious for mind-boggling programming errors and piss-poor communication. I love the game and have been a heavy player since the day after it came out, but c'mon, their incompetence is obvious and everlasting. https://gamepress.gg/pokemongo/niantic-impactful-mistake-timeline --- |
