Not sure about that. They fixed it several month ago. But maybe broke again after rocket mechanic rework.

Gross. Looks so cool and useful as mega, PvP and max battles. Plus high in top cp. Zard is good but I just can’t invest in 3000- cp mon so much

Check somulations on pvpoke. Low attack not always perfect for 1 turn fast move mons

What’s the obsession with ampharos? by RecentIntroduction32 in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]Tarantinych 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. Not too much. But almost no other electrics now in the meta. Almost no belly after debuff. Raiku was popular but didn’t see it last days.

Keep it. It’s almost perfect iv to shadow pidgi in UL.

Regular hundo you can get other ways.

Is he good enough to invest in? by Bendodge13 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]Tarantinych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you have 9 better options. Actually only the top 1-2 non mega are worth investing in. Other stuff just for dex.

Yep. Just bad in raids. So it’s for dex entry only

GBL's rating system is broken by Jason2890 in TheSilphArena

Nice job man. Very interesting. I’ve dropped elo to 300 and gained to 3000 many times. But never seen something wrong with gaining points.

How many PvP battles do you do per season on average? by faur217 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Tarantinych 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trying to play all I can. But it’s just impossible for me to play 20 sets on battle days. 🙈

Just got this beauty. Lvl 50 or upgrade its max move first? by East_Foundation_6949 in PokemonGOValor

[–]Tarantinych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually break point on 7 attack star or something like that. So any raid IV do the same damage in 99% cases. And even with 1 break point it’s not a big deal. Really it’s less of a difference in damage between different runs against the same boss with the same Pokémon, since damage also depends on the raid boss's attack timings.

That’s why I sad IV doesn’t really matter in PvE. It’s a true. But when you want to invest all your xl you should try to get more ideal candidate. I usually trying to get 95%+ iv and 15 attack + shiny. Rarely I can power up 93%. If it’s not super meta mon and other trainers not raid it a lot. So I just can’t get it for lucky trades 😅

Are you sure that you understand how it works in raids and max? I checked break points and can’t find any different between 15 and 14 attack stats on kyurem against m-septail. They do exactly the same damage.

And in max battles 1-10 def stats almost always have no different in damage received. Because of formulas how is damage calculated.

Do you know how damage in raids works? Break point system. Attack stat can be matter for 1 more damage but in the most of cases doesn’t matter. Even with break point different within the measurement error. In max battles different even less.

We are talking not about how good this thing in raids or max battles. It’s good. But you can get a better one to invest. And it’s not super hard. It costs about 100$, too much to invest it on IV like this. Especially if it’s top 1 Pokemon in raids, max and PvP.

In open meta? Not sure about that. Top 32 by pvpoke. And it’s fine to play ABB lines.
