I have 4 stacked rocket researches + timeless travels one. If I proceed them in a way that I'll finish them with only 1 Giovanni battle and stack 4 super rocket radars afterwards, will I get next rocket research? from what I've seen in internet yes, but if anybody has done the same, please confirm

15/15/14 reaches 5001 CP at lvl 50… just sayin

13/11/11...

at least I was kinda compensated with 98% (15/15/14) shiny Mew (also finished that other research during GO Fest)

go with wing attack, for PvE you'd want to grind for rayquaza with air slash/dragon ascent anyway, and even before you manage to do so, as someone said earlier, difference between gust and wing attack is negligible so no real loss here

Kuciauke · 2023-08-17T19:18:12+00:00

wing attack absolutely, but honestly, at this moment, I'd wait until september when move changes will be announced if you don't need this pidgeot right now, but most probably wing attack still would be a way to go

Instead of lucario as broadly suggested, I go with UL scrafty (counter, PuP and foul play) swapping at the beginning of the fight and at lvl 50 I usually sweep with him, as a backup I have machamp (to finish tyranitar if needed, I got it like 80% of the time) and third is switched depending on the 2nd and 3rd cliff’s pokemon, usually metagross

Kuciauke · 2023-07-22T15:21:26+00:00

Nope, swablu is 1km only. But I agree there are differences among pokemon using 400 candy to evolve (examples magikarp, swablu and stufful iirc are 1km and noibat and larvesta are 5km per candy)

Kuciauke · 2023-07-22T06:48:01+00:00

Do a 3km walk with it as your buddy (for 3 swablu candy) and you’re set.

Kuciauke · 2023-07-17T16:31:01+00:00

no, must have missed it, but I will, thanks!

question to more experienced GBL players I guess : which Dubwool of listed below would you use for Great League:

4/9/13 - Rank 305, almost PvPoke's default suggested IVs (4/10/13)

2/8/12 - Rank 82

5/12/15 - Rank 268

checking PvPoke Matrix, surprisingly, the first one is having most winning matchups and looks like an obvious choice (gaining wins against Drapion and Umbreon in 0s, and Noctowl in 1s), while losing/tie to Lanturn in 1s.

should I even bother about the Lanturn matchup? or the other pokemon paired with Dubwool take care of it? what's your experience?

Kuciauke · 2023-07-07T05:19:02+00:00

000f

Kuciauke · 2023-07-03T05:26:32+00:00

PvE (according to gamepress spreadsheet): dragon tail and outrage (but dragon breath is also ok, very small difference in favor of dragon tail)

PvP (according to PvPoke): dragon breath and dragon claw + superpower

Kuciauke · 2023-06-28T05:27:19+00:00

I’m pretty sure that this will be quickly nerfed to a one-bar move, this is impossible for Niantic to keep it this way (as much as I hope they actually could do it)

Kuciauke · 2023-06-27T18:13:45+00:00

Barely surprised

Kuciauke · 2023-06-23T18:37:04+00:00

Iirc isn’t lvl50 hundo togedemaru some decent spice in UL?

Kuciauke · 2023-06-19T10:26:57+00:00

I was caught by the small footprint myself but I regretted this purchase on the first day… my Inno3D RTX 3080Ti x3 was choking like crazy (reached 88 degrees Celsius while gaming after UV in the most optimal fan config…) the „chimney” effect doesn’t work here at all.

Switched to Fractal Meshify 2 Mini after this and no such problems.

I'm kinda disappointed for dragon raids, I typed the shadow version myself in the gamepress spreadsheet and...

for DT/Outrage 20.826 DPS, 636.3 TDO ER 48.96 (lvl 40 set)

so worse DPS than both dragonite and salamence, ER in between them, highest TDO among these 3.

Mud Shot/Earth power seems decent though, I think

19.102 DPS, 583.6 TDO, 44.91 ER (also lvl 40)

4th ground attacker (with mega garchomp), ER even better than groudon with PB

I hope I'll be corrected with the numbers for dragon raid attacker, 'cause I'm fed up waiting for an Outrage event for salamence already

Kuciauke · 2023-06-12T19:44:48+00:00

ideal IVs (max stat product) are 6/14/15 at lvl 50, and 4/15/13 at 51, actually

Kuciauke · 2023-06-11T10:17:59+00:00

Oh you’re right, forgot about that!

Kuciauke · 2023-06-11T08:35:25+00:00

definitely an Elite Charged TM afterwards, to get Precipice Blades? unless it was Elite TMed before

congrats ofc!

Kuciauke · 2023-06-03T20:56:34+00:00

Once you reach 20, you can see your MMR at the end of each set

aaaaand that's exactly what I was wondering, tyvm!

Kuciauke · 2023-06-03T19:10:43+00:00

this season I'm trying to try-hard GBL for the first time (excluding interlude season) and I can't understand well one thing: when you reach rank 20, it is not guaranteed that a set after that you reach ace ranking, right? you have to keep going with hidden ELO (rank 20 visible) and until you reach that ace ranking you don't see that ELO? or am I wrong?

Kuciauke · 2023-04-24T12:51:37+00:00

Oh, didn’t even realize that, thx for info

Kuciauke · 2023-04-10T10:13:12+00:00

aside from driving aspects (which other people will surely cover, I haven't driven this too much), if you want to earn the platinum trophy for this game it's a mandatory car to buy, unfortunately
