or just say that 15 is the max for all stats, 45 total. if you have more than 8 missing (less than 37 total) then it will be a 2 star. since the floor is 10 for all 3 stats, or 30 total. its quite probable that you end up with a 2 star. my personal complaint is that it seems that the higher stats are rarer than the lower. 1/64 but ive done over 400 raids and only 2 were a 4 star.

Piece of advice: wait at least a day to use your rocket radar. Last year they didn't turn it on until a day or two later. Which means the old pokemon might still be active.
Mega Rayquaza will only appear on Saturday, not Sunday. Saturday 11:00 a.m., 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. local time. So not 40 remote raids (unless you use the time zone difference to your advantage I guess - and reside in Europe, because if you reside in the US and try to join the Europe ones it will be Friday, so 5 remote reaids at most).
Can I swap the charged move for Rayquaza after I’ve mega evolved it?? Dragon Ascent kinda sucks as a flying type move and I’d rather it know a dragon type charged move.
Mega Rayquaza is the best pokemom overall. Its even on some raid cointer lists for FAIRY TYPES, like xerneas. I have a hundo rayquaza and a shiny, im hoping for some more ray ray luck!
Adventure Week watered down, and now this TGR Takeover watared down, with regular shadow Lugia and shadow...Cresselia. TGR Takeover has its useful functions, but that's all I'll benefit from this time around. Mega Rayquaza raids not being Elite raids, is the big banger.
You should make a ‘shiny’ shiny luck shirt, with a different colour badge that you randomly ship when someone orders a shiny luck shirt every now and then
It’s not being redone because people like me who tried to do the raid got booted out of the raid as soon as we defeated Mega Ray and almost had it to us a second time on our last attempt which had 30 seconds before the raid disappeared It happened to so many of us and it was pretty upsetting tbh. I didnt even get to catch mine either
Honestly everyone says don't purify shadows but if u look at pvpoke and pokegenie u will see shadow is most the time far behind the normal or purified version... so if cress is 23 it's shadow will probably b around 45-50
Who misses the EX raids? I still see near my house the EX gyms😢 I'm half glad that you can now use remotes (sucks that the R raid passes are so pricey tho😒) because there's no pokemon go community where I live since 2022.. they say it's a game for 7 years old, f stupid.. I miss going out with a group of 40+ people to catch a charizard on the other side of my city😂 good old days.. I need ideas for how to make them start playing again, we used to have a whatsapp group with over 90 people and now there's only 18 and they're not active, I mean at all
I didn't know shadow lugia being back was very exciting. Thank you for informing me. 😂 (Shadow shiny lugia isn't new. He was shiny last time in Oct.. I have three of them.) Edit: sorry for the condescending tone. I don't mean to offend. I merely jest about how unexciting it is to see Lugia again instead of its Apex form or something else new.
40 Remote raids equaling to like 7000 pokecoins. Thankfully im able to play in person because of campfire but RR needs to be cheaper man. It's crazy how much you have to spend to just enjoy the game for a day
So sad they didn’t wait to release the rayquaza info, literally 2 days after i spent my limit. Otherwise i woulda held off and got more passes. Gunna have 6 chances at my shiny 😭
Looking forward to and dreading this event Cresselia is a top 10 favourite Pokémon for me so this is great however I would really really like shadow shiny Trapinch. Also thank goodness Rayqquaza is back the elite raid day was awful I only got 3 raids done there was so much walking around and rushing to other gyms also lost 1 of the Rayquaza and the 2 that I got were both 2 stars. Lugia is one of my favourite shiny Pokémon I'm looking forward to that!
The last two Elite Raid Days kinda sucked. Enamorus was horribly timed due to a midday, midweek in person raids. Rayquaza was a flop as well but better because of it being on a weekend.
just asking will the spawn be small again? in my country i have minimum spawn of elite raids of mega Rayquaza like for example 4 to 8 spawn of elite raids only but almost a hundred something gyms are available but no elite raids, why is that?

WHY IS IT CRESSELIA AND NOT RAYQUAZA
Because wee just had rayquaza back, after the make up raid day they’re going to wait awhile to ray back in the game
They're is a Rayquaza day on August 3rd that you can remote raid (they are trying to push the mega and not the shadow)

Yes, shiny shadow Lugia came to Pokémon go back in October 2023. I was actually lucky to get a shiny myself. So glad it’s coming back.
I appreciate all this news. Personal gripe I just want to mention is that I do not understand how you could get less than a 3 start in “elite” raids.
Minumum floors are 10/10/10. If you get 10/10/10, you iv is like 67% that is below the percent for 3*. 3* is 75+. 2* is 50-75. 1* is 25-50. 0* is 0-25

Yay! I just wish shadow raids weren’t limited to local….
I came back to PoGo a few weeks after Mega Rayquaza... was so bummed I missed it. This is awesome!
Plot twist, Niantic keeps screwing up raid days so people will spend money on both days
So I have a question about shadow Pokémon cus I'm new, is it worth purifying them or keeping them as shadow Pokémon?
bro im taking a flight on august 3rd and i already missed the first rayquaza raid day 😭😭😭
Not Pokemon Go related but you should sign the shiny pins since they’re 1/25 so the people that get them feel that just little bit extra sauce.
Piece of advice: wait at least a day to use your rocket radar. Last year they didn't turn it on until a day or two later. Which means the old pokemon might still be active.
Are you ever going to extend shipping past the United States for the Shiny Luck merch??
I live in a pretty small community so when I saw mega rayquaza back I got scared and thought I would have to elite raid but no! Thanks niantic!
Can I change the dragon ascent move after Rayquaza mega evolves or do I need to keep it for future megas?
Dragon Ascent's the permanent key to Mega Evolution as well as 400 Mega Energy, so that move needs to stay on Rayquaza.
Do you think they could be getting rid of Elite raids to make way for the Gigantimax/Dynamax Raids?
Shadow Flygon boutta go crazy
I wish there were more players, cause solo raiding is impossible

From my first ever raid, a Lugia raid, I got a shiny Lugia. Glad I can try pick up his brother, shadow shiny lugia

You should make a ‘shiny’ shiny luck shirt, with a different colour badge that you randomly ship when someone orders a shiny luck shirt every now and then
im suprised its shadow cresselia but not shadow rayquaza
if they want money... they should have a 5 dollar research that gives you XL candy when you catch a ray like lucario

Shadow shiny lugia has been in past years 2 times before if you count apex lugia, so this is the 3rd that I know about.
They need to make shadow raids remote to. Or “shadow remote passes”. Cause I have no community to do them with
Same here
Finally! My shadow Groudon doesn’t have to suck!
And my shadow mewtwo dosent have to suck!
Dude has got to remember that 99% of us aren't able to buy 40 remote raid passes 😂😂😂
Im not sure shadow Cresselia will be good, because Cresselia is a defensive Pokémon. 🤔
its the raids happening in all gyms at the same time or random spawn?
We get Apex lugia or shadow lugia in shadow raids??
