Nice man. I have a hundo Rhydon I'm waiting to evolve. Wanna save up some stones.

How'd you do for shinies on Community Day weekend @no country for old wainds ?

 

[no country for old wainds]

forgot to answer this before but, i probably did ok considering i was sick and didn't go anywhere. got another eevee, a squirtle and a mareep. would've likely got more if it was a different weekend but ah well.

pvp sounds like it's fucked so far lol

@no country for old wainds Are you math-inclined at all?

Was just curious if my numbers were accurate. So from Jan 1st to Feb 28th, Ho-Oh and Lugia are coming to the Research Breakthroughs. Which means it has a 62.5% chance of being one of the birds (5/8 possible rewards can be birds, so 62.5% chance of being a possible shiny check).

And with 1/20 chance of being a shiny (5%), I believe that means each time I get a research breakthrough, it has a .312% chance I'll crack something shiny? and assuming we get to crack eight breakthroughs, through these two months there is 2.5% chance I'll crack something shiny in these two months?

This check out?

 

[no country for old wainds]

wouldn’t 5% of 62.5% be 3.12%, not .312%? in which case it’d be a 25% chance. i just woke up so i could be being retarded though.

 

[The Butt]

You may be right tbh. I'm not terribly sure as I was always horrid at math. lol

 

[no country for old wainds]

i don't even have non-shiny ho-oh or lugia so, hoping to get those lol

 

[The Butt]

You are correct. 62.5 divided by 20 is 3.12.

And I have a shiny Ho-Oh, Zapdos, and Moltres. Hoping for shiny Lugia or Articuno tbh .

 

[The Butt]

I think we are close to ultras. Probably like two weeks if we send gifts daily. When that happens, battle me my pals

 

[no country for old wainds]

that gif is amazing bahaha.

Also @no country for old wainds if you get a shiny Spoink let me know. I need to figure out if its full-odds (1/450), or boosted-odds and I'm just ridiculously unlucky.

 

[no country for old wainds]

there's no chance of me getting a shiny spoink, or indeed a shiny anything ever

although i did get shiny shuppet the other day i guess

 

[The Butt]

@no country for old wainds crack a lucky egg when you log in fag0t

[The Butt]

Did Slakoth day work okay for you or did you have problems?

 

[no country for old wainds]

it was fine for the first hour and i couldnt play after that anyway. sounds like i got lucky lol

 

[The Butt]

So one of the self-appointed "admins" of the Pokemon Go community in my town threatened me today over the game. Really. Because I organized people for the raid day event today "in the shadows" apparently. lol. fucking stupid. As hardcore as I am its a fucking game. Jesus christ.

 

[The Butt]

Oh and the funniest part is its a middle aged man with a wife and kids. Love it.
