Perfect buddy season 2

NO SEASON 3! NO!" Duff Goldman tweeted at the end of Food Network's Buddy vs. Duff season 2. But Buddy vs. Duff 3 is back, framed as a tiebreaker between Cake…

So that’s one season win for Duff, and one season win for Buddy. It seems like a third-season tie-breaker is inevitable, no? Well there’s no news just quite yet, but one thing is clear: people definitely need more jaw-dropping cakes from this duo.

You can earn up to 10 Hearts a day to increase your friendship level. If your Buddy’s mood is “Excited” you can earn up to 20 Affection Hearts. You can reach the Best Buddy status in 30 days (or less) if you complete your daily tasks every day.

In the line I quoted above, “Listen, I know it’s going to suck,” Buddy was referring to the 24-hour time limit his team had to finish a New York City-themed cake, which was the one challenge both he and Duff had to complete. The show has—for now, let’s hope forever—dumped its opening mini-challenge, which required the bakers to do something outside their wheelhouse.

That version of Buddy was not in this first episode; instead, we saw him repeatedly empathizing with his team, encouraging Ralph to not be so self-critical as Ralph attempted to sculpt the perfect Statue of Liberty.

Last year, Duff said in an interview that he and Buddy bonded during the first season’s filming—perhaps because they were both trapped inside a production that was as sturdy as a fondant chair, as organized as a tipped-over refrigerator. That wasn’t noticeable last year, but I think you can see it now.

If Duff wins, well, it probably is a legit competition. But if Buddy ends up winning season two, it’ll be hard to see that as earned and not sketchy, unless Duff has really screwed up over and over again. (

So perhaps Buddy and Duff really are challenging each other to expand and grow. Could it be that this made-for-TV rivalry that brought together the stars of what once were two rival shows? Or is this season just made for TV?

Put Best Buddy Lucario on Ultra team when not my buddy, then made him my buddy (CP 2490 -> 2528), checked Ultra team and he had been kicked off.

Yeah, they don't have a great track record on these releases being 100% accurate. Eg. Not saying that your buddy has to be in your battle party to get a heart. Numerous examples from PvP. I don't think we're truly going to know how this works until people start getting best buddies.
