@Pikalytics I purchased the app years ago when it wasn’t available in EU, do i have to purchase it again?

EU VGC players, we are finally back. After more than a year of being unavailable, the Pikalytics iOS app is officially live again on the EU App Store. Thank you to everyone who kept asking and checking in. The wait is over! apps.apple.com/es/app/pikalyt…

@FedeCampoVGC Thank you.

I genuinely think I am the only person who likes open natures lol, having more consistent informations should reward who plays better, making unique spreads is important, but do you really think winning games because of a random max speed or max def spread is skillfull at all?

@Lildarkraivgc @LexiconVGC A me sembra che su questo social si riesca a discutere argomentando come persone normali, stando anche nel limite di caratteri. Se tu non ne sei in grado non perdo tempo, mi tengo il fatto che non sei d’accordo (legittimo) e ba

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC Aggiungo la mia argomentazione seria di 27 righe nel google doc del mio team e ti mando tutto. Come si fa a capire perché sono contro queste ots altrimenti? Un solo messaggio sarcastico non basta, serve dire tutto layer1 (con le nature) altrimenti il gioco del dialogo è proibito

Jokes aside I really don't like this open nature change, if it is where we're headed. One of the only surprises we had left in teambuilding was running something bulky that shouldn't be, or something fast that shouldn't be. This just punishes creativity :(

@Lildarkraivgc @LexiconVGC Divieto di argomentare a quanto pare, se non sai farlo è inutile che mi rispondi

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC Divieto assoluto di sorprese di ironia e di iperbole

@Lildarkraivgc @LexiconVGC Bel modo di buttare in caciara il discorso, la prossima volta cerca di darmi una risposta seria per dirmi che non sei d’accordo.

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC A questo punto mettiamo l'obbligo di dirci le mosse a vicenda prima di cliccare perché se ti predicto la protect è un surprising factor. Se il gioco non è un copione già scritto e collaudato completamente in un foglio excel non è abbastanza skill based

@blackcatIVs @LexiconVGC You can but you won’t

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC U can still change nature before match thats still an issue

@AllyVGC Breaking news: You can still be creative even if you opponent see it in the list.

First OTS, now we’re adding Natures to team sheets. What’s next, handing over full pastes with EV spreads and damage calc support at team preview? At what point do we stop removing hidden information and creative edges from teambuilding?

@JoeUX9 No doubt you’re a brother, finally someone who’s actually smart about this change

Maybe just me but I'm completely ok with open natures, I'm down to see how it feels, I don't think its the worst change

@citysw1mmer @LexiconVGC Low quality ragebait.

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC did you consider that if you're losing because you're surprised it's because youre bad?

@citysw1mmer @LexiconVGC Except that i didn’t say any of that. Read again.

@SharkVGC_ @LexiconVGC you can't cry that cts is too hard for you and claim it's low skill in the same sentence

@ralfdude90 I didn’t disagree in the first place, so no problem. But yeah, my main issue with CTS is exactly that.

@SharkVGC_ I'm not sure why it is so hard to read and accept it is ok to have a different opinion, but you can call it the way you prefer. I understand your point though

First we started with OTS, the skill to figure out information and handle it properly and strategically in a bo3 setting was punished, it also hurt creativity in team building (some people call it "cheese") and now we apparently have to also give the nature information to our opponents in the OTS. I don't like this direction at all. At this point, let's make it fully open and tell me your speed, attack stats and defenses please. The game I loved is dying 😭

@JacobSkraw It’s strange that they weren’t included with OTS to begin with

to be clear, I don’t think this is like the end of unconventional team building Or anything, I just genuinely don’t understand why this change was necessary or what problem they were trying to solve

@Iamconfuuzed @PokeReplaysVGC Sure, but predicting a double protect is just stupid

@SharkVGC_ @PokeReplaysVGC Brother this entire hypothetical is situation dependent what are you saying 😂 Making predictions in mons is all about risk and there's next to no play you should always never go for

I think, like most moments of RNG in Pokémon, a lot of it is that you have to learn to play around it. For example, if your opponent's out is to get a double protect. Try to call it Drain Punch your own Pokémon for more health, attack the other slot, etc.

@Iamconfuuzed @PokeReplaysVGC That’s definitely too risky, depending on the situation, you might lose because you’re opponent doesn’t go for the double protect. Play safe.

@SharkVGC_ @PokeReplaysVGC They're not saying always predict the double. They're saying assess whether the opponent would reasonably gamble for it, and if they are is there an option that's better than attacking into that slot, potentially wasting one or both of your moves that turn

@VGCVictoryRoad You mean that we can only reach Ultra Ball tier 1?

Ranked Battles Season M-2 has already started, and will be up until 17 June! 🪜 🎮 Regulation Set M-A ⚠️ Champion Tier and Master Ball Tier will be unlocked on 20 May! 🔗 All 2026 events: victoryroad.pro/2026-season-ca…

2700 is crazy

@SplashPlateVGC Currently on 110.000 I’m not spending them at all since i’m using the same mons and items, if i’m using something new, i still have training tickets or recruit tickets

It's been a month since Pokemon Champions released and one of the biggest talking points was VP being potentially very hard to acquire and the game being p2w So... after a month how's everyone's VP situation? I feel like once i run out of Achievments this will drain up fast
