who else loathe vaporeon?

this thing is way too easy to get, to be the most powerful water attacker. i'm considering transferring all mine because their ubiquity get on my nerves... they're clogging up my top 12 and i wish it got nerfed so i could transer 'em all without feeling like losing out.

Eevee aren't that common in my area, they never been. Why transfer? Need bag space?

If they're clogging up your top 12 that means you made the decision to power them all up. So why complain?

Eevee is not that common in my place, maybe 1 eevee per day if lucky.

and no matter how uncommon/common they are, with the new raid boss system, they all become common. :p

We need more water fast moves. They could leave Vaporeon with just Water Gun and give stronger water fast moves to other pokemon to make them more viable alternatives.

Imagine if they nerfed Vaporeon so it was no better than jolteon.

Half the community would rage quit because they've been nothing but vapes from day 1!

Niantic gotta keep noobs happy.

Ah, the resident troll again. Thought you quit because the game was too harsh on you, didn't give you a free mew2. Well, at least this is what you announced. But it looks as if you really talk a lot when the day is long. Consequence isn't your strong suit, is it?

Here is your "best of bullshit" so far (to be continued I am afraid):

"[...] I can leave GO happy that i completed everything. While you guys are stuck doing the same thing over and over. I like to progress in life, not stand still ;) [...]"

"did a ex raid and failed while nearly everyone else caught it.

That's me done. I've been making amusing complaints about the game recently, but nothing is as bad as seeing everyone else run around showing off their Mewtwos (show offs really irritate me.) Not gonna blame Niantic for that, it's just a constant reminder that i don't have one and prob wouldn't get one for a very long time. I'd rather retire than continue like this.

These forums have been a nice distraction so thanks guys :)"

You sound like the sort of annoying noob who has to ask at every raid what pokemon to use ;)

I'm happy you spend time screenshoting my amusing posts, it's nice to be loved :)

To be studied, more like. I don't think people like you get a lot of love. But you are a psychological case study, so I admittedly have a certain interest in you.

Another "noob" who disagrees with you? Wow! It's amazing that all people who disagree with you just happen to be noobs! Its a really convenient way for you to get out of explaining your idiotic views with logic, which is not your strong suit.

Speaking of 'best of bullshit'...

Aren't you that guy who suggested using Blissey against Focus Blast?

Yes I am. At your service. And aren't you the guy who soloed Alakazam with such ease that you cannot even remember how and with which mons you did it? And who had an army of powered up Alakazams long before raids where a thing? Makes me smile everytime.

Edit: Just so your head does not start spinning: FB would give Blissey plenty of energy for its HB while not killing it very fast on account of its extremely high stamina. Definitely an option for 6. mon if one has a strong Blissey at hand (which I am pretty sure quite some players have from the old gym days). But I suppose I will never get through to you with any thoughts involving Blissey, will I?

I don't have a P/Hb Blissey at level 38+...any self respecting player wouldn't. It was the worst moveset to power up.

I liked the part where you told us to read the article to learn how good Blissey is against FB...you know the article, the one that talks about how good Blissey is against SB

If you look through the history on here (from long before you ever became part of the conversation), you will indeed see my army of Alakaz, and my Blissey stockpile (none are high level P/HB...because why would anyone??!!?!).
...but why bother with facts when you can just come in here using adhominem attacks?

Now go read someone else's articles...get it all wrong...and then come back and act as if you have game knowledge.

I double-checked, you are right, I made a typo. My thread was about FB though, as you will certainly remember (https://pokemongo.gamepress.gg/de/node/257316) and I stand by every word of it. It wasn't about the pokebattler article (I like to do my own math and develop my own thoughts); this one I only posted in reply to someone's insinuation that if something is not written on an official page (like Blissey being a possible Mew2 attacker) it just cannot be.

There is a very easy way to stop me calling you a liar (because yes, this is precisely what I do): just show us screenshots of a) that powered up Alakazam army of yours and b) the mons in your stock which with you can beat Alakazam with such ease that it seems credible you forgot. And no photoshopping please.

Typo?
If you did it once, then I would believe a typo.
But you did it in the title, the body of the post, and many times in replies.
Damn...you even argued with me about that exact point.
Heck...I even just asked again in this thread and you replied 'at your service'
That is not a typo....you just plain %#*@ed up

I don't need to prove myself to you, and I don't really care if you call me a liar or not, but I can tell you that you will only ever do it via a keyboard.

However, just for the fun of making you look even more foolish than you are doing on your own, let's play screenshots.

...and in case you were wondering if my knowledge of Blissey comes from misreading someone else's information or from personal experience, I will just leave this here

...and although I have 2 successful catches from raids, I didn't do it because I need the Alakazams, nor do I need the candy (see above pics)

inb4...screenies that you requested are still not enough for you to realise your mistake

I stand corrected, you do have an army of powered up Alakazams. My apologies to you. Now the picture of your Alakazam counters please.

Btw, I imagine no one who does level 3 solos against Alakazam does it because they need one. It's just one of the Everest's of the game at the moment. And you are the only one I met so far doing it seemingly en passant and without remembering any details. This is why I am a little suspicious.

What I don't understand really (and I ask this seriously and without irony): what does the picture of the Blisseys prove? That you are any kind of capacity on all matters Blissey just because you have a lot of them? They are great defenders and were most valuable under the old system, most people know that. But we are in a new meta now and math rules if you want to be an efficient raider and do not swim in dust and candy.

Edit: After thinking a bit more about it, your Blissey picture might actually explain a lot about why we have so opposite views on the matter in general. From your perspective, it seems logical to say that no self-respecting player would have a powered up p/hb blissey. If you powered them up under the old system (where they mattered) and had all that choice, you would obviously always have gone for dazzling gleam, there is no question to that. But I for one had just 3 Blisseys, two of them with psychic and one with HB. So I went with the HB one. At least the situation of the players I know in my city is way more similar to mine than to yours. So it is probably more obvious for us to think about new uses for our few powered up Blisseys than it is for you. Thank you for providing this new perspective, I now understand better where you were coming from.

When did I say I don't remember the lineup?
You are grasping at straws...and failing. You have repeated that lie so many times that you are starting to believe it yourself.
You even linked the appropriate thread, so you can check that if you like.

I realise that many are still striving for it, but if you check the dates on my catches it was a while ago - I live in a biome that is conducive with Alakazam and all of it's counters.
.Sure I failed before I succeeded...but only on 1 full raid ( against FB). Then I suceeded.
At the time it didn't feel like that big of a deal, and tbh it still doesn't (as long as you pick the right moveset to challenge)...the eeveelutions were and are the real challenge, except vape of course

Last question though...do you stand corrected, or do you need to see more proof?
Your last post seemed confused about which it is.

As for the Blissey, it was for the fun of it...to show that my knowledge of Blissey in PoGO comes from more than misreading someone else's articles.

For your convenience, here is the straw (https://pokemongo.gamepress.gg/q-a/5-ttars-tank):

Q: how many times have you successfully soloed Alakazam so far?

A (you): I think it is 3, but I haven't bothered keeping a record.

This goes on. No details about your fabulous solos were provided at any point, you just kept changing the subject.

Edit: to your last question: regarding your assertions re raids, pending a picture of your Alakazam counters I still have no reason to believe they are true. As far as I can see, you have never contributed anything displaying deeper insight of the game and its mechanics to any question re level 3 solos or raids in general, and you don't seem capable to learn and think independently either. I think you might be able to do t3 solos if someone gives you all the powered up top counters, but I don't think you are able to figure out a lot on your own on the spot if you are on the the brink of failing and have only limited resources and time to finish the job. Sorry.

And where exactly does it say I don't know what I used?
Like I said, grasping at straws.

And if you read the rest of that exact post, I tell you that you are free to go through this very Q&A to find the details I have provided in the past - it is all their for anyone to see.
Actually do it...you may learn a thing or 2

I don't care if you believe me, I didn't do it for you.
But in the interest of fairness, I won't ever believe that choosing Blissey against a FB Mewtwo is a good idea - so I guess we are even.

Sounds like a power-up regret than a legitimate Vaporeon analysis. Sorry buddy, all sales final, no refund on the spent stardust!

They don't get that high on CP and personally I would never power up more than 3 past 3000 CP. It just sounds like you did something stupid and now you feel bad about it, live and learn!

I think the "clogging of the top 12" by Vapes can be easy to do if you aren't really powering up many mons. All it takes is a 650-700 cp eevee to get a high 2000 vape.
Also, if raid bosses like Mew two were so easy to catch, it wouldn't be fair. My sons battled him, and one lost out, the the other got a 100%. Life is tough...
