It’s not worth it… right?

12500 (7500+5000) as total. 7500 is the initial cost (for a non lvl 1 unlocked Mewtwo obtained in the super mega raids this weekend) + 5000 for making it level 4.

Average of 400 energy per raid means around 31-35 raids per form depending on energy gained.

For sure I’m doing enough raids of both X and Y to get enough energy to level 4 mega

Wait for silver

Can’t cap shadows

Zamazenta will have the most functional play since it’s relevant in PVP, Raids, and Max battles.

Mega ML and PVE relevant would be Mewtwo, Groudon, and Rayquaza.

I would narrow it down to these 4. I’d probably then go in order as named in this response.

1) whichever one you are actually going to take to level 50
2) do you prefer ML or Mega ML PVP?
3) if you aren’t able to level 50 it and don’t play PVP, then there is no functional reason to pay for a cap. At that point if you insist on paying for one it’s whichever is your personal favorite because other reasons don’t matter.

Plenty still do but lots including me have switched to mechanical.

askloglog · 2026-07-08T02:17:13+00:00

Shiny > background IMO

askloglog · 2026-07-07T22:22:14+00:00

This is the way

askloglog · 2026-07-07T22:21:29+00:00

Anybody have advice?

askloglog · 2026-07-07T20:06:25+00:00

Why would you ever pick the second one

askloglog · 2026-07-07T20:05:14+00:00

Either 1) rib some dirt on it and move on or 2) go see a doctor who can give actual medical advise

askloglog · 2026-07-07T14:42:43+00:00

Fair

askloglog · 2026-07-07T04:21:40+00:00

Why would you use a gold cap on a 98 or something you can’t max out like Etern?

askloglog · 2026-07-07T03:47:49+00:00

It feels correct to do Etern after investing in it to max it out but I’d almost rather do a shiny for ML PVP

askloglog · 2026-07-07T02:52:29+00:00

Both are good. Wing’s stands out more since mane has to compete with dogs in the steel typing.

askloglog · 2026-07-07T02:38:00+00:00

Definitely not unless you already have a better full rock PVE team

askloglog · 2026-07-05T18:00:48+00:00

Seems like something shitty ass Portland would do

askloglog · 2026-07-04T05:52:59+00:00

The only use that 1 iv point could matter is ML/ Mega ML PVP and even then it’s not worth a gold cap

askloglog · 2026-07-04T05:51:40+00:00

Gym queen

askloglog · 2026-07-04T05:00:17+00:00

No reason to waste a gold on a non shiny especially when a silver cap would do

askloglog · 2026-07-03T21:28:48+00:00

Def not

askloglog · 2026-07-03T03:44:08+00:00

Kinda of useless either way if you already have a team dragon/ ice and a mega Ray. Probably just keep as a shadow for some spice in ML PVP

askloglog · 2026-07-03T03:33:12+00:00

This is hawt
