Got a shiny Durant. That’s it so far. Like the raid invite. Thanks for those who have invited me so far.
Pretty underwhelming tbh. The gible and Chansey candies have been nice but Gible is not in enough raids
And a shiny poliwag too. Before this is seen one shiny all day now two in a row while I’m soft banned so one shake, pop out and run. FUCK
13 shinies so far including 2 Alolan Marowak. Got a karp, 2 Swablu, and a Growlithe but the rest are all brand new so I'm pretty happy. bunch of Darumaka, Litwick, Gible, Togetic candy as well and some good lucky trade fodder.
Added a shiny ponyta, clamperl and treecko. All three of those are new and the ponyta was in the bucket list. So made the day go from a 6/10 to 8/10. I live in the middle of 30 gyms and I counted 3 Gible raids all day. If that was around the 10-15 mark it would have been a perfect day IMO
Tangela x2 Clamperl Chinchou Heatmor Machop Slakoth Gible Magikarp Woobat Croagunk x2 Tomorrow is going to be nice https://www.serebii.net/pokemongo/ticketevents/pokemongofest2020day2.shtml
Played all day and had pretty shitty shiny luck. Ended up with just 2 Durants and the aforementioned missed poliwag and chinchou.
Roselia Wobbuffet Heatmor A. Marowak x 2 Swablu x 2* Magikarp* Swoobat x 2 Meditite Poliwag Growlithe* Jigglypuff * - had shiny before Put Rotom in the dex, will finally get to put Dialga in the dex tomorrow and also Victini. currently 596/603 on the dex right now but I refuse to make the gen 5 final evos before their CDs. then it's just Archeops (need a good one, have shit), Gigalith (will make in the next week or so), and a finished Haxorus (need about two more hatches). need Mespirit, Uxiel, and Mime Jr. for regionals but no shadows on those yet.
btw we're getting all three legendary birds and Mewtwo in their shadow forms AND their IV floor is 10/10/10 (because they're all quest rewards and not caught for beating boss). under no fucking circumstances are you to purify Moltres or Mewtwo, who are the #1 Fire and Psychic in the game in their shadow forms. Zapdos is better for UL or ML as shadow, Articuno is better purified. if you complete the event tomorrow (you'll have the research forever if you want to take your time) you can TM Frustration away during the event hours which means those are all immediately usable pokemon. you want an Elite Charge TM for Mewtwo to give it Psystrike but even with just Psychic it's better than a normal Psystrike Mewtwo so you can boost it and then just wait if you don't have the Elite TM.
flat 20% damage increase. they take 16% more damage but this rarely shows up in raids because if you aren't dodging most charge moves they're one or two-shotting your mon anyway unless it's got resistances. the damage increase is just obscene.
Thanks for this info. Thankfully, I have a Elite Charged TM lying around. What moves should I be aiming for for the birds?
I should be around all day. If you see me online please invite to any and all raids as I’ll likely just be playing from my home today
I now have at least 1 96+ IV of every legendary released in this game save Mew and Genesect. Pretty proud of that. The grind has been real
TM any Frustration away. I think you need an Elite Fast for Zapdos if you're going to do PvP. Articuno needs an Elite Charge if you're giving it a second move for PvP. Moltres would need an Elite Charge for Sky Attack second move if you want it to also be #1 Flying but you can just keep it pure Fire. If you're not going to do PvP then just Fire Spin/Overheat Moltres and you're done.
Do they change leaders every 30 minutes or something. Still trying to max out my shadow shiny 84% Metagross, so I’m good with fighting Sierra all day. Do need cliff eventually for my quest though.
added: 2x Charmander 1x Squirtle 1x Bulbasaur 2x Tangela 1x Swablu (3 total) 1x Woobat (3 total) 1x Qwilfish 1x Durant 1x Chansey (1008 CP, 93 IV, fucking love it, prob max it and just leave it as Chansey since Blissey's shiny is trash) 400+ Togepi, Gible, Litwick, and Darumaka candy. 25 shinies, Dialga is in my dex, Tina-O is in as a form (93 IV for the one I caught), Victini in the dex. I only played about 5-6 hours today as well, I was so content with yesterday that today was just going to be icing. great fucking event, would do again 100%.
I had a great time but I have no idea what was up with my shit shiny luck. Saw 1 Alolan Exeggutor today and that’s it. Played all day long.
7 shinies, a 98 Dialga, a 96 Palkia and my zapdos and Moltres were both 98 not purified. My Mewtwo was a 87 but can’t complain
Got the unown with about 5 minutes left. Watched a friend get an unown at 7:59 tonight, but didn't get it caught until after it switched to 8 so it because non-shiny..>WOMP WOMP
Also, for any of you that don't have me or one of us deleted each other...feel free to add me and I can help do any raids during the day. Usually just dicking around working very hard. 8374 2871 7123
