Burno was the best and I loved having him as captain. He was one of the reasons I loved pogo and loved Chicago! I hope he’s RPSing God in some PvP right now for revenge. I became lucky friends with him last week too. And I never open gifts so it was our first ever time! (1/x)

@Ferrikster @PokemonGoApp There never was an incentive to throw on alignment. People who threw on alignment were either not as skilled players or players who often denied. I am excited for not as skilled players to learn optimal timing and excited for players who often denied to be brought to level terms.

It was a joy to watch her and support her on her dream run. I learned that she also came 2nd in the Bulgarian Chess Championship while being the only woman playing in the open section. Fearless attacker on the board and a trailblazer off it! Will be rooting for her going forward!

@Ferrikster @PokemonGoApp If you think battles are linear and have no comeback potential, then I fear you are not understanding the game correctly. Furthermore, the removal of denies has little to do with catching. I, like most others, are excited about making great plays in a game that is fair for all.

@InadequancePOGO @lostheart85 Countries like India that have a massive player base will not get a single in person regional. Last year, there was one online event for almost 200 players interested in India. A few who did amazing, after 9 rounds, won the CHANCE to qualify for worlds! Absurd and unfair.

@PoGoKieng @playpokemon What are your thoughts on double slim bracket as the format? Personally, I am not a fan at all. I think the VGC/TCG system of Swiss -> Top Cut -> Single/Double Elim bracket for top cut is much better. The advantage of not losing on day 1 is too massive imo.

@NianticLabs Throwing on alignment should never be optimal. Hoping to deny should never have been a possible win con. Less RNG in the game is a good thing. If you are mad about this update, it really shows how selfish you are. As an NA player, I am happy knowing that I will never deny again!

@DsuCo_ India had one online regional - 2 people go to worlds from a country of 1.4 billion people. All other regionals are thousands of miles away, across continents, and require expensive flights to get to. LATAM, while still nothing like NA/EU, got more attention. So what do you mean?

@PoGoKieng Great news but sad to see that India, which has a strong player base and many great PvPers, is not given any attention at all by TPCI. Almost no way for any of us to compete unless we spend 1000s of dollars on travel and stay in a country far away.

@JreSeawolf There are always haters for every meta. If I'm being openly honest, this meta is not that bad. Slightly RPS but definitely not as bad as previous metas like brawler/prismatic etc. This is a solid B tier meta with potential for fun and ability to come back from lost lead. Head up!

@PvPSteve1 @PoGoKieng Perhaps. But if you saw the way the India qualifier was run (not by TPCI and Play pokemon) - it was horrendous. No disputes/rematches. Referees have no knowledge of game. No communication. Rounds being advanced without all pairs being done. Not a promising outlook so far sadly.
