    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    No, I mean a Zapdos. Anyway I had what I think is a pretty good idea to fix the pokemon conversion formula. For calculating the offense stat, instead of having the formula take the average of special attack and regular attack, it should just use which ever stat is highest. This would keep...

    You're looking for exeggcute, the little bunch of pink eggs. Exeggutor is the evolved form.

    Not only did I just hatch my third fucking Eevee, but it's the second one I've hatched that didn't even have 80% IVs. Rustled level: Significant.

    Reigniting Patriotism- A practical guide to helping others.

    Yeah reading that got me to half mast. And I'll concede that you do in fact understand that quote now, but from the way you posted it as a follow-up to that Schopenhauer quote I'm not completely sure you understood it when you posted it.

    I would absolutely not level anything but solar beam on a grass type. Just be patient. And yeah zen/slam snorlax is probably good enough to power up too.

    Reigniting Patriotism- A practical guide to helping others.

    I'm really blown away here. He posted the goddamn quote correctly, the word is factious, not fractious. Factious, as in relating or inclined to a state of faction, not fractious, meaning irritable and quarrelsome. And shame on you for thinking that what Hamilton was trying to accomplish with the...

    Reigniting Patriotism- A practical guide to helping others.

    No, what's spot on is that Alexander Hamilton was probably the most deeply nationalistic of all the Founding Fathers and you don't understand that quote isn't against patriotism.

    Reigniting Patriotism- A practical guide to helping others.

    I'm impressed, it isn't very easy to be vapid and pretentious at the same time but that quote manages it. I'm not even a proponent of patriotism and I still find that quote insufferable.

    Nope. Seaking is a single type water with flying/poison for tap attacks and ground/ice/bug for charge attacks. And no, I would never power up a raticate. Until they make some changes to type weakness/stab/whatever, the only pokemon that are worth powering up are solar beam venusaur, pound/rough...

    lol I suppose it's possible that one of the 119 caterpie, 268 weedle, 626 pidgey, 380 rattata, or or 120 spearow I've caught could have been my first perfect pokemon, but I never appraise them.

    So I just hatched a 97%...Goldeen. FML what a punch in the crotch. Seaking has got to be the single worst evolved pokemon in the game. I'm just gonna hold on to him in the hopes that someday soon they overhaul moves or buff type bonuses/nerf stab or something. Pretty sure he's the only pokemon...

    Now that I really understand how quick dust costs get completely crazy, I honestly think I'd power up a high tier 100% IV pokemon from level 1 if it had a good move set. It costs 45k dust to level from 1-20 and 250k dust to level from 20 to max, so the dust cost from 1-20 is pretty trivial in...

    What a waste. There was no reason not to keep it around as cannon fodder for gym attacking. I have 15 Flareons, most of which aren't optimal, but I'm not going to just pitch them. Same with my 12 Vaporeons.

    Except golden monkey is a battlecry. You have absolute control over when you go into legendary mode. Bump his cost to 6 or 7 and make his ability a battlecry and he'd be playable. Standard renolock already has issues with being able to keep up with aggro, apothecary really just isn't a suitable...

    I think I'm gonna save up a full screen of 10k eggs to hatch at once just for lulz. I figure by the time I actually have 9 10k eggs I'll be back to a full array of incubators anyway.

    The problem with my barnes/thaurissan/ysaarj idea is that if barnes gets ysaarj and ysaarj gets thaurissan, thaurissan doesn't trigger, which is so much lost value that it's pretty much a guaranteed loss.

    Gen 1 electric pokemon are complete trash, and on top of that electabuzz is 3km per candy. At least buddy a pokemon whose candy will be useful once you do have a high IV one you want to evolve/power up. If you don't have a snorlax or lapras, at least buddy an exeggcute. Exeggutor is the best...

    So 2k pokemon are 1km per candy, 5k pokemon are 2km per candy, and 10k pokemon are 3km per candy. Except the 3 starters, who are 2k pokemon but treated like 5k for the buddy system. So basically only a complete moron would buddy an Eeveelution. For battling purposes looks like the best pokemon...

    could have already had thaurissan in hand. *edit* survey says...malchezaar is trash even in my fatigue warrior list. Too many dead draws, even in a deck designed around surviving really slow draws. Maybe if you knew for sure you'd be getting matched up against other control decks.
