I’m playing Pokemon Masters, a mobile gacha game set on the island of Pasio. Collect many Pokemon waifus and husbandos and participate in unique battles involving sync pairs.
I suspected that we would get Rika this month since there are still so many major characters we haven’t gotten from Scarlet and Violet. And I don’t know why, but I think Rika is just so unexplainably hot. Like she is super hot. Like I think she is the hottest characters in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. But then there is Perrin. So… maybe they are the same but Rika with glasses clears. I just bought some Rika full-art cards, and I hope I can buy Perrin full-art cards when they release in English. Hopefully Perrin aren’t expensive…
I didn’t record myself rolling for Rika but I got her at 363 scout points, so I just went ahead and pitied one and candied one. I was going to 5/5 Rika and Perrin when they came out but they had to at least be good enough. And I think Rika is pretty mid. While she provides good buffs, I don’t think she is that strong in anything. Other supports buff better and other supports heal better. Rika can activate Ground Zone, but I can’t get much value out of that because I only have 5/5 Cynthia as my main ground striker. Rika’s sync grid at 4/5 and 5/5 is also underwhelming, which makes me hesitant to upgrade her to 5/5. Her kit also has anti-synergy. She can raise her own evasiveness and lower the enemy’s accuracy, but you want the enemy to hit her so that she can lower their stats. While her kit is a mess, she is still super hot.
Thanks for watching!
