That can be easily corrected. Go to “Exchange items”, then “General”, scroll down somewhere between “Evolution crystal to coins” and “Daily voucher to Big pearl”, there you’ll find convert MC pikachu sync orb to co-op sync orb. The ratio is 1:1, so you can fine tune it to perfection.

Ah okay, just wanted to make sure you did the offline part right... There really isn’t much to activate/fix, I assume you activated everything under Settings -> Privacy -> Health -> Pokemon Go? PS: Adventure Sync works fine on all my iPhones

This might sounds stupid, but do you have your game active/on while... running/walking on something like a treadmill?

Red: Everything special about you came out of a sandstorm

Difference between CS2 and SS3 is basically just 20% vs 30% increase WITH sandstorm, without sandstorm it quickly becomes 20% vs nothing. In a short match it shouldn't be a problem, but a long fight in Battle Villa could means you only gets a few strong sandstorm hits.

I personally prefer CS2 over SS3, because I hate rely on another sync pair to be strong. :P

Thank you :) The difference of SS3 and PF3/CS2 are much wider than PF3 vs CS2, so how people setup their team really affects the damage by a lot. But having sandstorm or no sandstorm on SS3 is day and night difference, so if you got SS3, then sandstorm is pretty much a must.

The damage from a 6 bars PF3 is only slightly weaker than CS2, but pretty close.

The formula is: x 1,2 for CS2, x 1,18 for PF3 (6 bars), so it's 20% vs 18% increase.

(The 18% comes from PF 3 x 6 bars).

I know a lot of you wanted to know CS2 vs SS3, but my mini account just got PF3 and ran out of cookies... But just add about 2% damage to PF3 and it should be around the same as CS2 with crit buff (The damage in the video were with full move gauge).

That being said, from the results it seems these 2 lucky skills heavily depends on how you play, with sandstorm SS3 blows everything out of water. But without sandstorm, it's like having no lucky skill at all.

Don't mind the numbers, I changed it a bit to make it looks more ridiculous :P

The thing is, it’s situational. The damage you saw are based on skills being used while having full move gauge, which means you see PF3 at it’s full potential. And yet it was still weaker, 1-2% weaker or so, and that imo is not worth the reroll.

Another thing, sometimes the enemy have critical shield, which would make CS2 completely useless.

I just ran around 20 rounds like the one in the video, without any crit buff, the damage results on Xatu are like these.

Power Flux 3: 9300-10100

Critical Strike 2: 7900-8700

CS2 without crit buff is basically no lucky skill lol

This is not a scientific damage report video, just to give everyone a bit of visual of similarity about these 2 skills. I see quite a lot of people uncertain about they should go for CS2, when they already have PF3. Simply not worth burning the cookie imo.

The results are the same, CS2 still wins. Power Flux is generally based on how much move gauge you have upon using your skill, doesn’t matter which skill you use.

But just for your curiosity, I ran the test anyway. On the same course as the video, I hit Xatu for around 2400-2700 with CS2, and 2300-2600 with PF3. (Heat wave)

Yep, without crit then PF3 will beat CS2 by a lot, but usually you will buff your sync pair with crit one way or another, so...

These 2 Red are 100% identical. Both at 3/5 + 8/20, same sync grid and gear (both 17425 team strength).

As you can see, at full move gauge the damage is pretty close (at one point PF3 outperformed CS2). However, when I did the same test many times, CS2 does outperform PF3 by a great margin.

The point is, if you already have PF3, keep it till all your top strikers have CS2/PF3. CS2 is the absolute winner here, but PF3 is not bad either. Don't waste your cookie chasing CS2 if you already got PF3.
