A freind said that he uses a mixture of pyrodex pellets and triple 7 pellets in his smokepole.Not sure why. Anything wrong with that?

I'm no expert and I don't know the hazards of mixing black powder but I don't think it's a good idea to mix any black powders granular or pellet form
and you would do well to discourage your friend from doing it also.
Good luck and Welcome to the Club...

My guess is Pellets are designed to burn at a specific rate, different than powders like pyrodex. I would highly discourage your buddy from experimenting and stay with conventional loads. With today's ML performance there is absolutely no reason to mix up your own concoction.
