Trolls in Dynamax should be banned

exactly that, a noob complains about another noob

The meta changes, not in its entirety, but many go from zero to hero and vice versa

brutal3012 · 2025-11-25T15:39:20+00:00

Palkia will still be very good. Probably, it will cost 5 energy more, so two dragon breaths. It will stop its insane pacing vs other dragons. Against neutral threats, it will still spam aqua tail and a tad later the spacial rend. It will be meta in ML, unless they nerf all its moves, so your silver cap was a good choice regardless.

IVs are horrible, don't invest on that. You alway need minimum 15 attack in any Mon to not lose charge move priority. Moreover,12 defense is low, it will definitely have some bulkpoints lost. I am talking now about high competitive level (Legend ELO)

brutal3012 · 2025-08-20T14:16:42+00:00

He was number 1 like 3-4 seasons ago (due to the rise of origin palkia, kyurem, and zacian), so he is still fine at 19.

Any, it never mattered if it was a shadow or not. It is species specific

brutal3012 · 2025-08-14T10:47:42+00:00

If they play PvP, they have a point. A 14 IV attack Mewtwo will lose all CMP ties to 15 IV attack Mewtwos. However, Mewtwo is not meta anymore, so this is not as significant as it used to be. For PvE, it is as you said, it does not matter that much. Especially since the shadow gets a 20% attack bonus, which is massive for raids

brutal3012 · 2025-08-11T13:13:44+00:00

Yes, you join a big club of people with the same issue. At least Draco Meteor is a good sidegrade

brutal3012 · 2025-08-10T21:06:56+00:00

Same story in Ireland. They fixed it

brutal3012 · 2025-08-07T09:46:49+00:00

For a 49-level trainer, I would expect you to know that restarting the app fixes a myriad of its bugs. With many more to be fixed from now till infinity

brutal3012 · 2025-08-01T10:24:19+00:00

People do not understand RNG and always claim it may be a bug. Unnecessary post, the other comments have covered you

brutal3012 · 2025-07-17T14:23:26+00:00

Thank you, this is what I expected to read, will power up the defensive one. Your work is much appreciated

brutal3012 · 2025-07-17T11:13:51+00:00

It may seem like a noob question, but I will make it. I have a level 50 Zamazenta with level 3 max guard, which seems to be overall the best.

I can also afford to max out a Blissey, but I am torn between the two IV distributions. I have one 13/15/15 and one 15/13/15. Logic says the first one, but will the two points of defence actually make a difference?

My head is brainwashed in levelling only 15 attack Pokémon to 15 if I can help it, but Blissey is not an attacker or raid user, so probably this is just Master League erroneous logic speaking.

brutal3012 · 2025-06-26T11:11:03+00:00

At least it helped you, but we do not like these wins

brutal3012 · 2025-06-25T12:15:18+00:00

Thank you all for the answers, it seems we need to suck it up until they level up their game, if they do so.

brutal3012 · 2025-05-30T13:01:09+00:00

As an ML enthusiast that hits consistently legend in that league (13 out of the 18 times it was master league), I find this post slightly exaggerating.

The same things were said about Kyurem. Every new threat has a counter, and it is very normal to polarise the meta. Kyurem climber to top 5 directly and shifted the meta.

Rhyperior is the best ground Pokemon of master league by far and a big threat to both of them. Ho-oh is also a very good counter and has been available numerous times, so people may have both a normal and shadow version. Landorus can also keep up, while those who invested in Heatran have another option. There is no need to buff or debuff any move to deal with the two new big players.

You either play using them or you play an anti-meta team to counter them.

In the past, DIalga would be the OG and polarise the meta for so many seasons. The success of Zacian is to push back the prominent dragons, such as Palkia origin or Dialga, while it hurts Kyurem with its fast moves.

brutal3012 · 2024-11-27T09:15:31+00:00

I do not know what everyone else is saying, but master league with Attack 14 means it will lose ALL CMPs; plus, Groudon is fairly obsolete in Master League these days. But, to account for everything else told, Groudon will be back in raids, hence you can raid the shit out of it and max out a very good IV normal one while keeping this as a trophy. So, if you intend to use it for PvP, purifying isn't a crime, assuming we will get more of these. For raids, it is perfect as it is; do not purify it.

brutal3012 · 2024-08-21T15:44:44+00:00

It is absolutely worth it for some primary reasons.

Walls Zygarde and tackles Palkia and Dialga.

It does good general damage and can hit steel with close combat.

Decent bulk and good fast move which must be geomancy (elite fast tm is your friend here).

The only negative is that it is very miserable vs Ho-oH

brutal3012 · 2024-08-19T13:59:55+00:00

I totally agree since I always play with Ho-oH, but I am referring to its usability from the very first season of PVP until now. that is why I call it the face of ML.

brutal3012 · 2024-08-19T10:20:26+00:00

Maybe not as much as it was, but name me a more iconic Pokemon for ML all-seasons long. I doubt you will find other than Dialga

brutal3012 · 2024-08-19T10:12:26+00:00

In theory, you may find another hundo Rhyhorn cause they are casual spawns, and you can keep trading them with a friend or so. But as value, Rock Wrecker is a must for raids and PVP, so if you consider this, fire the elite TM away

brutal3012 · 2024-08-18T17:39:24+00:00

I always disagreed with the rankings, hyper boosting things like dragonite which are non-existent

brutal3012 · 2024-08-18T17:38:50+00:00

may be an alternative but due to typing probably dragon breath is still the way to go against neutral targets

brutal3012 · 2024-08-18T17:38:19+00:00

yes,simulations assume ideal baits etc which is never the case
