I've played most characters, and have never really had much issue with learning them. Pretty much Diamond for all roles. For some reason I can't get Genji to click for me. I feel stuck half the game just not even knowing what to do. Throwing shurikens down mid from probably too far away. As soon as I try to get close or go for a slash I get punished. I try to stick in vacinity of the tank (not behind but make sure he's with me somewhat). Try to play angles, and push in when I see the tank push. Feels like I gotta be doing something wrong with this character!

Curious what his plan will be. After blaming gambling and streaming for his problems, I am sure the court and his PO aren't going to be fine with him getting out and going right back to it. I'm also fairly certain they are going to make him hold a job while he deals with all of that.

I am getting married next June, and I am unsure what shoes I should get. I am usually a pretty fancy dresser, so I plan on getting a higher end fitted tux for the wedding, but I keep getting stuck on the shoes. At first I thought about getting a pair of high end loafers, but decided against it. Currently I've been looking around for some velvet smoking loafers, but not sure if I prefer them over a more dressy style of shoes. I would like to find a pair that I can wear for more occasions than weddings and will also look nice without having a tuxedo. Fancy dinners, events, etc. The main focus would obviously be for the wedding and paired with a tuxedo, but I would also like to be able to wear them with a nice suit or similar wardrobe. Any suggestions would be great!

Upgrade from Profitech Go?

Recently upgraded my grinder to Allground Sense, and now I'm itching to upgrade my Profitech as well. I've had my eye on a Decent DE1 Pro, but I feel as though it might be a bit overkill for what I would use it for. I don't see myself messing around with tons of profiles, I would most likely find one I enjoy and just default to using that everytime. I generally pull two double shots per day, sometimes 3 or 4. The Decent would be about the top of my budget sitting at $5k. Possibly find a used one for closer to 3.5. Would love to hear some suggestions! C

Non shiny Keldeo vs Marshadow, which would you say is the more viable option? Specifically for PvP. I'm debating using my Bottlecap on one. If I had the shiny Keldeo I think I would do that for sure, but without the shiny one I'm honestly not sure.

Can't fly. It must be under 1500 CP.

I don't have a ton of great candidates for the Bottlecap. No shiny+BG. No eternatus or anything. I was debating on using it for Marshadow as I think that would be fun to build around for ML. I was also debating on using it on a few GL pokemon. For example I could make a shiny + costume Wigglytuff R1 IV's. Or a shiny + costume Gourgeist. I have a few shinies that could be R1 candidates with a Bottlecap. I'm also debating just not buying the Bottlecap, but I feel I'll get FOMO for not getting it when it only comes around so often. 😅

Bottlecap worth it for Great League?

I have a maxed eternatus I was planning to use my Bottlecap on. However, I don't really ever use it. I hardly do ML and I don't raid much. Generally I run GL and UL and random cups. So I was thinking about using it on a special PvP pokemon. An example would be a shiny BG piplup that I could make an R1 Empoleon. Or a shiny Umbreon with a costume. I have quite a few more I would consider.

Currently Ball is my highest level and main tank. However I've been struggling to enjoy him as I've been focusing on comp. When I do well it's crickets. When I don't do well, I get flamed relentlessly by my team. The other difficulty is that, although it happens on other tanks too, when I do well on ball the entire enemy team will swap to counter me. Not just the tank, but their entire team. I've started playing some Hazard, but the learning curve from ball to Hazard is stumping me a bit. With ball I feel as though I can engage and disengage whenever I want. With Hazard I keep trying to play as aggressively as I do on Ball, and then I'm punished without any way to get out quickly. I've also heard Hazard isn't as good as he used to be. I've done pretty well on Mauga, but now at Diamond 1 he is starting to feel much less viable compared to how he felt in Plat lobbies. I've been told he isn't as great after the metal lobbies.

Anyways, I'm struggling to figure out a character to focus on, and would love some advice!

I have a shiny, R1 Jellicent that I just got my best buddy badge on for the flex. I'd love to run a team focused on him. I'm thinking Jellicent, Lickilicky and S Cradily. Any suggestions would help!

I'm debating running S Quagsire lead with Lickilicky and Togekiss, or Lickilicky with S Quag as the SS and Azumarill in the back. What do you guys think would be the best way to run this team?
