r/plakoro

This game is pretty simple but it is great fun!

Even you mod your enerkoros there will always be that factor of randomness that balances the game out.

Anyway, I've played quite a few matches until now with my gf and I'd like to share my thoughts so far:

• Eeve and Mew are OP, they've got really good moves.
• Eeve's "best dash" is broken, my gf manages to land that move against me a lot making her coming back on matches that she was about to lose if I would ban that move if I could haha.
• Pikachu's Gnaw is quite good, low energy and it seems Pika's chakoro tends to land facing forward which boosts a lot of it's moves.
• Mew has low energy moves that do a fairly amount of damage.
• Love Pinsir, unique moves but it's mid lol, it seems the charakoro truly struggles to land facing forward (I have the two positions) and Pinsir have 2 high damage, high energy moves that relly on the charakoro facing forward which reduce the probability of landing either of those moves a bunch.
• Haven't used Metagross a lot but I've won all the matches I've played using it.
• Onix has gotten me good results after I maxed my orange enerkoros as much as I could, great balance between moves effects and energy, the position seen on my photo has given md the best results.
• Got a Zapdos and it's great really unique and fun moveset, the charakoro's landing does tend to benefit you. If you are lucky you can win the match pretty early thanks to "thunder chain". I still need more electric chips to land electric moves more consistently, I hope I could get the other version that has the other two Fly type moves today and hopefully a Pikachu set to use electric enerkoros and max them out lol.

I'd like to read your experiences playing :)

Hello Pokémon fans!

https://pokedices.online/

I’m pretty new to this sub, but after a quick check I saw some projects to emulate Plakoro, and none of them convinced me, so I made one.

My basic idea with this is, to auto-update and translate all attacks, effects, and instructions for future releases. I think it’s a nice way to help the community spread the game solving the language barrier. I’m a Spanish designer living in Japan, but my Japanese isn’t good enough yet to play in Japanese, so this fixes that.

Basically you configure your Pokemon and attacks, set the dices as you want and set your opponent Pokemon. The rest is just following the instructions, selecting your attack, trowing the virtual dices and then throwing your physical Plakoro. The HP count, effects and limitations are automatically calculated to follow the oficial rules, as easy as that.
The app is meant to be a tool for playing real Plakoro not a simulator.

One thing that I love about Plakoro is that it reminds me of Gogo’s (Crazy Bones in the USA, I think). I’m a 90’s kid, so we played that a lot. I love having my little plastic Pokémon in my pocket, but carrying the energy dice and the extra energies and attacks is a pain in the ass, so this app tries to solve that. You just need to have your Plakoro, and the rest is in the app.

I think the app is quite easy to use, and it has some gimmicks like throwing dice by moving your phone and Pokémon sounds when you tap them.

Please feel free to use it, copy it, extend it, and make content about it. I just want more people to play the game and enjoy it like we did back then.

Please share and give me feedback about it, I'll try to fix and update as much as possible.
