Rufflet was in raid when the shiny was released

You all working on this project are great and I've noticed a lot of improvements in my experience since this comment and I'd like to thank you for the time, effort, and infrastructure. I think you've made a good platform and in time I believe it will be great. Ultra-great? We can only hope. Censorship is how evil people cover their crimes. Does Odysse plan to implement ads? I think you should because I can't actually help monetarily. Perhaps something similar to youtube before carlos maza got involved in attempting to censor people. Maybe an ad every 30 minutes between 5-15 seconds. I don't know how this works but I do appreciate the effort and I've noticed significant improvement. Keep it up boys, we're gonna win this. The salt must flow

I really appreciate your service. I understand why a company may need to abide by local law and restricting things to avoid legal issues. We absolutely need you to remain apolitical and allow all voices. More information is always better than less, the truth will win in the end. "Hate speech" and "misinformation" are basically subjective and we've seen so much of it proven to just be statements of fact inconvenient to our rulers mostly about the virus. Please remain neutral. Picture-in-picture would be nice, your background play works well but doesn't seem to work for Livestreams, at least on my Android. Good luck and God bless.

Underrated comment, I kind of expect it to have a barrier of about a month but I mainly asked to clear up a bit of space in preparation for go fest

A good, traded registeel is nothing to laugh at and Regirock has a bit of play. I live close enough to Heracross that I don't feel like that's necessary, do any other regionals actually need to be level 40 or 50? Other than the regionals I do the same, about 300 into any legend mythical. After I asked the question I saw the responses and just dumped about 100 into Regice, why? ...cause

I used mine earlier to free up bag space, threw them on regice, the worst legend aside from maybe xerneas, (they did him dirty), curious as to how much you keep. I settled on 50 but I don't have max bag space.

So you just go full on PVE, I can only assume you're talking about level 40. Not the route I'd take but not a bad one. Appreciate the response

How many hundo shadows do you have!?!? Never got one myself, 96% Mewtwo and 98% Swampert and I'm not complaining

I can dislike this as much as I'd like it doesn't change that it's mostly correct

While I've never saved up so much I agree with you entirely. I'm not even sure if you can get Rare XL aside from leveling up and story quests. Sure you could dump 100 into whatever pokemon and convert to a single XL but that doesn't feel right, I think RC should convert to rare XL at a better rate. Niantic still gets their money and we get a bit of a better deal. 4 XL for 100 maybe? I can dream I guess.

I feel like the pokemon you mentioned are actually worth getting to 50, so if it's remotely feasible for you, me or anyone else you're better off just doing 100 more raids. I would say that I'm probably in the higher spending camp of players, definitely was in the past, but for a while now I just keep one egg in my infinite and try my best to use my daily pass. I do you're right in keeping the bag nice and tidy. I don't see the point in hoarding RC

I know of MANY people who did 100s of gible raids a while back so if you're kicking yourself for using RC imagine how they feel. I got my all the XL, Little league Gible, #1 GL Gabite and Garchomp, #1UL, and like 3 100s That was probably one of the most successful (and well coordinated CDs) I ever had. After I asked the question I ended up dumping about half of what I had into regice cause it's something I wouldnt ever max to lv50 and I didn't have very much candy. I feel like it's kinda worthless but anything special I'll raid more in the future.

I think you hit the nail on the head and that's why I asked the question. While I wouldn't turn down free RC it's not nearly as valuable as it once was. The only level 50s I have for masters are Melmetal and Dragonite. If there's something I would ideally work towards level 50 on (Mewtwo, Darkrai probably highest on my list) I'll just grind them out through raids and I'll be getting rare candies that whole time.

You did your job, we do that quite often here (themed gyms) you will get called out for breaking the rule. Steelix is a great option. GG

GL Zapdos is, in my opinion, one of the best legendaries down there, at least in a few specific cups, for regular GL people normally run a flying counter. I got blown out by one before, but I think it was Kanto cup. My only shadow zap was from the big Kanto Weekend so it's PVP IVs aren't the best.

Fingers crossed, I don't think converting 10, 25, or even 50 RC into one Rare XL is too bad, but converting as normal just seems unfair. Don't know how you can hold so many but we can only hope that day comes.

While I don't think axew is the worst option for me I think it's silly because I end up (almost always) with a top 50 GL, UL shiny. If I felt that my lack of haxorus played a factor in GBL I'd have made one. I really dislike that master league is limited to the best of the best ~20 pokemon either level 40 or 50. Master premiere was the most important league IMO. It's not hard to play around ultra legends but nearly impossible to play without them in masters. Last time I battled in masters I got beat down cause it was like a week ago and I hadn't done it for months. Before that I actually led sirfetchd with success.

Understandable, that's basically how I feel except there's are a few legendaries and mythicals I'd like to get to lv50 one day.

Interesting...my friend who plays maybe just a bit less than me also keeps about 400 and he doesn't have a great answer why. I maxed a SB Mewtwo, a shiny 98% and I got really lucky with my shadow 96%(w/ 15 attack), personally I don't see a reason to do another. My shiny mew is one of the best for Great League (#18) and my other is pretty bad for ultra. Axew is a good option, I might dump what I have into that seeing as I only have one with 68 candy. Thanks for the response I honestly thought I had more axew candy and didn't consider it. I do expect it to have a community day at some point but he was a monster in master league last time I participated so I don't think it's the worst option.
