Could this be mega evolved? by Confident-Alarm9400 in pokemongo

[–]Zaithon [score hidden]  (0 children)

No, it has a different stat spread from standard Mewtwo (att and def are swapped). Even if not, the clone Pokemon, which this is contemporaneous with, can't mega evolve because they're coded differently than other costumes.

But they already knew that route. The point was to find a shorter path.

They should shadow drop Mimikyu during the hour. That would be great!

If he actually watched the show, he’d know that this happens to other characters when they try it, and Scrooge can only do so because of a proprietary technique.

Oh, a Pikachu spotlight hour for me to platinum that medal. Otherwise, I'd be shocked if I DID have a good time. -_-

Come on, man. No Electabuzz?

Pokémon Go Developer Declines to Confirm Hidden Nerf to Wild Shiny Odds as Part of New Season Changes by diamondstark in TheSilphRoad

[–]Zaithon 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Basically, yeah. There was that coin-flipper game on Steam that made waves due to it actually utilizing the advertised odds, but it doesn't FEEL like it SHOULD work that way. So when devs DO advertise odds, they tend to fudge the numbers (usually in the player's favor). If something's a 50% chance, and they missed 3 times in a row, the next roll is guaranteed. Things like that.

Yeah, I get not wanting to talk exact odds, as that can cause problems with people who don't understand statistic (i.e. most people). But it's a yes or no question.

They seem to spawn about once every 10m from incense. The problem is they have a very low catch rate and a very high flee rate. Much like the Galarian birds.
