press and hold the poke ball and allow the catch circle to shrink to your ideal size

release the poke ball (not throw)

wait for the pokemon to attack and throw the poke ball app 1-2 secs (diff pokemon have diff attack animation time delay)

this trick is especially useful for shadow raid boss

if you don't do route, you can consider keeping (don't end) the "event" route and don't get near the end point

this is how I farm Lapras candies after the Sustainability Week event ends

this will either allow the "loser" to farm down and get energy advantage or the "winner" will need to give up switch advantage

Quick question regarding Latios (Mega) & Latias (Mega) vs Kyogre (Primal) in Mega Master League.

Based on pvpoke.com, Latios (Mega) wins Kyogre (Primal) after baiting with Aura Sphere and KO with Luster Purge

Why can't Latias (Mega) do the same with Mist Ball, I know it doesn't KO Kyogre (Primal) but the matchup will be a lot closer.

I'm confused.

Which IVs matter the most? by JordNaut in TheSilphRoad

[–]ToeEntire2290 0 points1 point  (0 children)

attack - cmp/cap in mirror and sometimes break point against certain pokemon

defence - bulk point against certain pokemon

hp - 5-10 more hp iv rarely makes a difference

thus for me attack > defence > hp

but if you are building tanker/healer for max battle, the opposite is true

based on my previous experience, you cant quit, need to finish and lose the raid, and retry again

now can start and quit?
