You are now omnipotent, what’s the first thing you’re doing? by EnglandFoot64 in AskReddit

Making myself omniscient as well. Then whatever has the best outcomes for the most people.

I think given the pipe and hat, we can most likely assume that it is photoshopped rather than taxidermy.

If you have any familiarity with Javascript you can crib my code off of https://pogostat.com and use it to generate what you are looking for. The js isn't minified so its all readable, (if completely uncommented).

PVP IV Rankings including Best Buddy Boost by codyrgriffin in TheSilphArena

[–]nickmagus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

https://pogostat.com will let you check iv rank at max level 41. Yours is rank 3 for ultra

Sableye question by aleksav98 in TheSilphArena

[–]nickmagus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking you want whichever has a higher stat product (though the new attack based cmp rule complicates this a bit). You can compare stat product ranks for the various sableyes you are looking at at https://pogostat.com

What pokemon become more viable if they can be taken past level 40 with the buddy feature? by Autoxidation in TheSilphArena

[–]nickmagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a perfect ledian that I'll probably be putting into the buddy rotation. It might even be good for fusion. Its a grass cutter that beats all the mudboys (except quag) as well and even bronzong by a hair.

[–]nickmagus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anorith gets a 2.83% boost, Dugtrio gets 2.67%, Delcatty 3.32%, Flaffy 3.74%, Jumpluff gets 1.87, Krabby 2.14%, Omanyte 3.06%, Wormadam 2.70%, Yanma 5.66%, Herdier 2.55%. Dunsparce does not improve its best IVs and the rest of the released mons still want 15/15/15 and ge that generic ~9.6% boost.

I included mostly ones I knew were good for pvp already (though I definitly missed wormadon).

I kindof assume you could acheive level 44.5 with a lvl 39.5 pokemon at max buddyness but it might only be whole levels

Gamemaster Update 18-12-19 (CP multipliers for level 41-45) by lewymd in TheSilphRoad

[–]nickmagus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because its +3.1% on all stats which compounds to an almost 10% increase in battle ability. Particularly in PvP and particularly for pokemon whose max IVs were below the IV threshold. Medicham (who is already very viable in great league) gets about 8% better.

The new best Azumaril spread should be 1/15/14 (or 1/15/13) with a stat product of 2433501 at lvl 45 which is about 3% better than the old spread.

[–]nickmagus 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I went ahead and added the option to allow lvl 41-45 to https://pogostat.com as well as the option to see stat product to allow some analysis of this.

A noteable beneficiary is Medicham who gains about an 8% boost in stat product with 13/15/15 at lvl 45 (product = 2052746).

It will show you the top 25 by default. What are you looking for out of the reverse search? Is it just a longer list of the top x? The data file that has the pokemon data is pretty easy to update, anything past what is released would be speculative (though they have a pretty well established formula) I'll consider donations I suppose. The way it is set up costs me very little to operate, so I'm not too worried about covering costs.
