    Just had my Greninja roll his gold attack 10 times.

    200 damage

    He didn't need it as the other guy rolled purple but still.

    Not a bad booster pack.

    Gardevoir will come in for Pikachu.

    Apparently is a bit shit so he wont be used and I'm not sure if I should chuck that duplicate Charizard at Gardevoir.

    Edit: Fused the dupe to my other Charizard. +1 to a move.

    Can't get on at the moment which is annoying as my time booster was finally ready for me to start working on.

    3 EXs in one pack is incredible though. Hope I get luck like that next time, though I have had 2 twice.

    Wait, can you pass through sleeping Pokemon?

    I just lost coz some Bulbasaur passed through me.... he didn't use a card or anything. That's all I can think.

    Shuppet is absolutely ridiculous.

    Just beat 2 guys back to back ridiculously easily. First I beat in 3 turns after his Delphox failed to kill Shuppet. The second took slightly longer as he blocked his goal with a Blastoise but stupidly he didn't engage Shuppet afterwards so I was able to get Shuppet and Greninja on his entry points with him having only Blastoise and skarmory on the field. Skarmory attacked Greninja (idiot) and died and then with a little help from Genosect we surrounded Blastoise for the wait win.

    I did my special mission and it just vanished and gave me nothing. It was play 5 league matches and when I checked I had 5 minutes left to do it and 1 more match required.... I straight away did it, and nothing. Fuck sake.

    It also says Special Missions are active for 24 hours.... I had about 10-15 minutes for mine.

    My latest 6 pack thing was garbage as all I got was a Snorlax EX.

    However my Locked Booster gave me Latios EX and a Froakie which is interesting as I have been considering getting one for my deck to make Greninja even more powerful. Froakie with Manaphy should still be reliable, as even Mudkip was kicking ass for me when Manaphy was on the field. However, given Greninja moves 3, I'll probably stick with him.

    Need to decide if it's Pikachu or Lapras who makes way for Latios.

    Shuppet

    The amount of people I face who have decks full of EXs and Shuppet beats them on turn 3. He's the first Pokemon I got to level 5 just to get him more Will-O-Wisps.

    The game seems a lot better at loading and finding opponents now. However the amount of crashes mid match is taking the piss.

    It was smooth as silk for me earlier.

    I also took the plunge and used the materials I had gathered from boosters to just buy like 5 Shuppets instead of saving for Latios.

    Didn't have enough to get a power up skill point (I'm sticking with that name) but he doesn't need much more now.

    He raped in my first game with him.

    Greninja on one side and shuppet on the other

    Two pronged legit attack.

    That's pretty much what I do.

    No real point in chaining him though. 11 damage isn't going to beat anything, except other Shuppets maybe.

    All you need now is Manaphy to QB your team.

    Is there something special about Latios I'm missing? He's strong as fuck, but his ability makes him a bit of a liability.

    The other thing I need, other than fucking Taillow, is something that can make people Noxious. I only have 1 Pokemon who can do it and he does it so rarely that as soon as I see "Make your opponent Noxious 3 times" I don't even attempt it.

    Up to 1740ish now. Got a Greninja in a free booster pack. Need a Frogadier to complete the chain. Getting into the swing of things now.

    Somehow got 2 rainbow boxes in a row just now.

    Just played against a guy who had a better deck than me in terms of fighting but he made two huge mistakes which meant I won the long match rather than him.

    I had his two entry points locked down for most of the fight by Shuppet (hero) on one side and Greninja/Ho-oh/Gardevoir on the other. His mistake was that almost all of his attacks went on the side where my heavy hitters were and he beat them most of the time. The match swung in his favour slightly when he actually decided to finally attack Shuppet.

    The second fuck up on his part was that he had a shuppet but didn't know how to use it. He waited until mid-match to unleash it and then just kept putting him in bad positions on a congested board. He place Shuppet on the board 4 or 5 times, each time he died straight away as I always had someone 1/2 spots away from it with a big hitter.

    Also, I found this yesterday:

    https://rankedboost.com/pokemon-duel/best-ex-figures/

    Seems quite good. Also ranks Pokemon by MP, trapping, spawn blocking and for wait wins. Total resources needed to level up Pokemon based on rarity and what skill you should level up during training.

    In the 3rd tower there are 3 levels in a row that require Taillow. It's fucking stupid.

    Oh and the level in tower 2 (I think) that needs Pikachu for some reason doesn't work with the Rare version.
    I just did this with my rare pikachu, argh.

    I've got one of those 24 hour boxes on the go, it better not be shit.

    It's less fun now gems are rarer, and you save up 200 and get a shitty rare. I'm still hooked but it was better when EXs were obtainable.

    Yep, I hope they add that booster back. I miss those EX's.

    I got a rare Absol from my first.

    Could be useful as a suicide bomber type.

    Just got 70 gems from a daily mission.

    Rainbow boosters are a crock of shit though. Take too long to open stopping you getting more from playing matches and you wait all that time and get a Lapras.

    Yeah, I've had 3 and none have been that great.

    Locked boosters are so much better.

    https://pokemongohub.net/pokemon-due...n-duel-quests/

    Drapion is the only other.

    Also, speaking of locked boosters being better. I got a Xerneas last night from one.

    My Gardevoir appreciates it.

    Just won a league game then straight after I get an unexpected error ffs.

    Edit: Think it gave me the win, I don't remember how many league points I had but I got a booster.

    And it counted for a daily mission, so all good.

    Got a Chesnaught from a 1 hour booster today which is pretty nifty.

    He'll slide in as my main defender rather than Snorlax.

    Also, I don't 'get' evolving. I realised that I had a Kirlia so put that in my deck to evolve it into my Gardevoir. Someone attacked me, got knocked out, I evolved it but then it reverted back to Kirlia.

    Was that meant to happen? How do I get the evolution to stick? Can it?

    Edit: Just read up, it's not meant to stick. What balls. I'll just keep my Gardevoir in my team.

    I've never seen that. When I evolve pikachu into Raichu he stays as Raichu until the end. I've also never seen an opponent swap back.

    I thought the evolution stuck after the fight though.

    Annoyingly I've got 3 rainbow boosters right now so I can't really play league matches for a bit.

    After that turn, it does. For the remainder of the match.

    Of course it doesn't stick after the whole fight.

    I still want to know how "Charge markers" work for the legendary birds. I keep hitting that move with Articuno but I can't follow it up with anything. Freezing an opponent would be so fucking useful too.

    Just had one of my better matches. Shuppet and Greninja did their usual and blocked off both entry points but he KOed Shuppet eventually and then crammed a load of Pokemon into that corner. I had slowly worked my whole team forward and moved Articuno into position where next turn I could move next to the goal and the turn after that, if he didn't kill me, I could surround him and get the win. Seeing what I had planned he attacked me Articuno Vs Articuno but he landed Roost which meant his Articuno couldn't move on his next turn. Sensing an opening I moved Greninja off the corner to attack Mew on the goal line and Mew hit Vanish, leaving the field. The only Pokemon he had who was in position to block was Articuno who he couldn't move.... so he was done. Enjoyed it.

    Finally managed to win 3 in a row (my mission) and as a result got a league promotion with my new rank of 2110.

    Mew is utterly useless.

    Blue sections are the best in attacking but Mew's blue is fucking shit.

    Indeed, Mew is awful.

    I had another match earlier where Lapras put 3 of his Pokemon, all near his own goal line, to sleep and he was powerless to do anything. I fucking love Lapras at times due to Manaphy powering him up meaning his attacks are 40, 80 or sleep. So useful in the right scenarios.

    I don't think I'll ever drop Shuppet, Greninja, Manaphy or Lapras, unless some new ones come out that are better. Pikachu and Articunos places are still up for grabs, especially if I can't work out the marker thing.

    Someone just used a Charge Marker against me, so it can be done. Still no fucking clue how though.

    8 consecutive wins in the event and then lost to some prick who got all the luck in the world. I had him banged to rights and his Zapdos got 4 ridiculously lucky kills in a row.

    Spent 10 gems to keep my streak. Hope I don't have to do that again to get to the magic 11.

    Thanks, I've been searching but no luck.

    Got to the magic 11 though I spent a few gems to do so. Here's hoping the booster is worth it. Typically the game crashed the moment I clicked open....


    According to my Messages I got:

    1 x EX Green Cube
    1 x Rare Metal R....
    1 x Gold Cube R
    Keldeo EX
    Bronzong....
    1 x Delphox EX

    Think that was safely worth the 40 Gems or whatever it was. Would have been 10 less but I was impatient and refilled my energy.

    I was excited about Keldeo, but I'm not sure he's that great. Considering using him to see how it works out.

    I'm finding the event relatively easy as Articuno gets both boosts and Lapras gets the +20 and then another +20 for Manaphy. Lapras is a real don in it.

    Keldeo in for Pikachu is a possibility.

    Your deck is so much more suited than mine

    Although I've just remembered that I have a Lapras now.

    Wish I had an articuno.

    Had two great endings just now.

    First was a long tactical battle but after I picked off his shit (pikachu, leafeon) I moved greninja next to his goal line zapdos as he couldn't surround me. He chose mewtwo to attack greninja and landed the shove thing but I landed yellow so I KOed him and magmortar in one go. Easy after that.

    The second was another good fight and in the end he moved an Emolga up to challenge my goal line manaphy. I've only just realised he would have won if he hit volt switch Vs bubble or miss. Instead I landed manaphy song and moved his blastoise off the goal line but I couldn't get there so I moved Lapras next to his kirlia who was next to the goal. He put blastoise back on the goal but on his next turn another manaphy song let me move him again and then hurdle jump kirlia for the win.

    Well I guess I can focus solely on the gym now.

    Fuck sake.

    The gym gets too hard at the higher levels because so many cunts have 3 legendary birds plus the likes of Ho-Oh and Lugia. I've spent all my gems (granted I only had about 50 left) and only got to 8.... no idea what to do if I lose again, wait for my daily log in gems or just cash out. The rest of the week I doubt I'll be able to achieve much.

    I still need a fucking Taillow.

    Edit- Up to 9 and 30 gems... so 5 shots at getting 2 wins. Hopefully...
