@Nataliem9999 Slowking doesn't work due to an 'interesting rules quirk'. It only appears that way because of an ambiguity in the EN translation that isn't present in the JP translation at all. Intl players would benefit from more awareness of the fact TPCI still kind of sucks.
I try and be decent, and thoughtful with who I choose to associate with and who I distance myself from. I will sometimes chastise friends or family for their kindness to the cruel. They get upset with me.
(But isn't that despicable? They created the situation to begin with.)
There is an expression "kindness to some is cruelty to others".
It's unhealthy to think of the world as a zero-sum game. However, if anyone thinks of it in this way, then it becomes one. This is not a hypothetical, since we know many think in this way. You have to consider this.
@lmwlms@piskooooo@TheAquaPiplup I don't see an exact analogy but surely the principle is 'just roll it back' whenever anything is reversible. If you announce something you can't even do, there's nothing to reverse

@lmwlms@piskooooo not sure. but that's so easily reversible and doesn't sound like something someone can maliciously do to waste time, either. i dont think the TCG has to be analogous to the VG but it'd be like if the VG made you forfeit your turn if you clicked on an attack affected by disable
@piskooooo@lmwlms@TheAquaPiplup I have nothing nice to say about this PokePop guy. It's insane he's still around in 2026 because he's been an active detriment to the game the entire time, and it's not like he's necessarily malicious, he's probably just dumb and/or doesn't care
@lmwlms@piskooooo@TheAquaPiplup I think you guys have a weird definition of attack phase, particularly as to when it 'ends', which is why cards like Dialga GX have to add "(Skip the between-turns step.)" which the JP card doesn't, or the whole thing of "Pokémon Checkup" which doesn't have an equivalent JP term
@piskooooo i cant think of a good example that someone not familiar with the game would intuitively understand. @TheAquaPiplup@lmwlms what's some dumb stuff you guys don't get because kyle sucevich has been lying to you
@piskooooo ...what an effect is" they get mad because they think I'm calling them dumb. i mean, if you put this much time into the game and don't bother to look up the *actual logic*...
A lot of local games prolly have judges making bad calls because they think all it's arbitrary anyways.
