“We fixed raids” 1. Do not see animations for charged attacks anymore. 2. Machinepewpew charged attacks 3. Dodging feels like “swipe till i see a normal attack” instead of stratigic dogding. But sure “fixed raids”
And unless you're trying to short-man, you literally don't ever need more than that. Strong attacking pokemon with super effective moves is all you need.
I would love a breakdown of the best budget picks for each type. Which ones make sense and might be easier to get. Megas are tough to always have, Shadows can be tough to get. So like a middle of the road type player break down.
Shadows are tough because of the crapiness of Rocket spawns, but Megas are easy. Most of them are regular meta, except the top 3 because of course they are.
Just search top attackers for either types (steel, ice ground etc.) or raid bosses (rayquaza, giratina, darkrai etc.) and then pick the most affordable one for you
as someone who got back into playing GO within the last 4ish months, out of all the POGO YTers your videos have been the most helpful and insightful. i enjoy the way you go in depth and explain features rather than just grazing over things as if we all should already know whats going on. really appreciate your content, keep up all the awesome work! (btw your 'Settings' video was SUPER helpful, after downloading all the sprites, etc natively, my game runs much more smoothly!)
For me it was much more helpful, and pleasant to look at, when you organized into one large group on the screen, so I see all Pokémon in a group at once. Otherwise great vid!
0:19 The question I'm asking myself is how long should I wait to be sure those Changes are final. I don't want to teach my Shadow Dragonite Draco Meteor with a Elite TM, for those Changes to be reverted the Day after.
Idk, I am a bit disappointed for things like legacy salamence's outrage which is outplayed by not legacy dragometeor. What am I supposed to do? Teaching bot of them because forgetting a legacy move is crazy? Same for Alakazam with psychic and future sight
they say they may adjust it over time. So we can't be safe at all. There could be a change coming next year and changing up everything again and again. so basically a money machine with a fake meta
Don't make any changes at this time is my recommendation. And tbh I would never get rid of a legacy move just to earn a few more seconds. Most of these changes aren't worth investing in
I have a dragonite 96% with 15 attack which have draco meteor long time ago. I evolved during community day dratini sadly i didn't have a shadow one to evolve but i take what i get. Anyway the point is its better to at least have one or two with legacy moves whenever community day comes around so if those legacy move will come in handy next time also i have a pvp dragonite with draco meteor in Ultra league just in case. I say its important to come prepared for the future.
A lot of the screen shown moves are different from your spoken moves. Which are correct? This video is super helpful and I am gonna put these to use, just want to know which is correct. Thanks for another great video Daxi!

Hey Daxi... thanks for the info! Quick question though, I noticed that sometimes the audio of the moves you were saying did not match up with the image as for the best move set for some of these… Is there one that is more correct in these circumstances? Also, what would be super helpful in the future if you do another one of these would be to possibly make an infographics link for it in the comments section, so that we can refer back to it quickly in the future as a saved image… I actually just sat here and wrote notes on the entire video to help me organize priority. Either way, super helpful to have someone go over all of these in one spot, so thanks again!
some of them, niantic buffed the non legacy move. For example the shadow garchomp, earthpower is not recomended over earthquake anymore. and earthquake is non legacy move.

I would consider the dragon type should higher up in the ranking since a solid number of dual role attackers outside their legends that allow role compression. Once I start getting second moves on my shadow garchomps I'll have my dragon and ground teams covered which is nice 3 shadow one mega and 2 regular as flex while I build my second shadow Groudon
When you made your old video like this, you put all the Pokémon of one type on the screen at once I would screen shot that. In future videos hook us up with that graphic please 🙏. Thanks for the content. From a fan in Wv ✌️😎
The issue here is Niantic should have said something when the changes happened instead of going silent. Perhaps it was an accident, but then one could argue why hasn’t it been reverted and to that I have no answer. I think people wouldnt have been as upset if Niantic announced with the new season the raid meta was changing because then people wouldn’t have spent candy and stardust on their pokemon which aren’t as good as they once were. Metas are gonna change in a game regardless of the time invested it’s bound to happen because if not it will get stale fast, but how they went about doing it wasn’t the right way.
This is why I don't power up pokemons sometimes or just power up a bit, since it might not be useful or just waste my stardust. Good thing I didn't power up any of my Kartana's
The budget options section should not have been taken out. Im sure the types that only had legendaries, shadows and megas were completely useless for a lot of players.
I wouldnt say the normal type is useless. Its pretty good when you dont have a pokemon thats a top attacker, it can be an all rounder like Regigigas with Giga Impact
It also looks like they may be preparing to shift around the meta seasonally, hence why as we get into October Ghost types got a big buff and Poison (which Ghost resists) got nerfed, or how we are approaching Winter and Ice types got buffed.
The usefullness rating was interesting as i use rock, dark, ground, grass, fire and fairy only types in raids. Coverage pretty much everywhere so less to focus on and power up.
I think it is fundamentally wrong to nerf Pokemon or nerf moves after people have invested in them. Another slap in the face from Niantic. No surprise in that at all.
In other videos he confirms (in his opinion) Regigigas, Slaking, etc are "useless" cuz of the lack of damage they do in important aspects (normal type, move set, raids usefulness etc)
"we might change it over time" so that basically means that they can turn around everything at their own will whenever they think its right? So it's literally pointless to power up any pokemons since its not safe they be usefull over time. They really that greedy for money...
Gotta watch your own videos to see if it came out how you wanted, since some moves were shown different than what you said in audio. Not everyone will hear it and listen they’ll most likely go off visuals so just wanted to let you know besides that great video 👌🏻
@Poké Daxi could you make a list like this but without the mega and shadow pokémon? I don't have megas and the shadow ones are bad. With the latest update, which budget pokémon are best to raid and battle? Thank you, it would mean a lot to me.
Based In What I’ve seen on Reddit, it looks like they changed the moves back to what the DPS roughly were, to scale with the 0.5s changes they did. I’m really bummed bc Gamepress used to show Shadow magnezone #1 now it’s back to 8 :(((((
Given that one can only mega evolve one Pokemon at the time and that good/worthy IVs of shadow versions are difficult to obtain and costly to power up, could you make a similar video with top non megas, non primal and non shadow Pokemons? That would be nice :)
Spectrier became an elite raid legendary Pokemon during the Day of the Death event or Halloween event. Glastrier will be an elite raid legendary Pokemon for holiday or Christmas event.
Now I want to comment on how to introduce SHADOW DYNAMAX POKEMON AND IT'S SHINY. Same method battle with Go Team Rocket members but dark Pokestops will have red aura cloud on top of it indicates team go rocket has a Shadow Dynamax Pokemon. When come to leaders and boss, red cloud Pokestops will appears when players uses Rocket Radar and Super Rocket Radar respectively. Shadow Dynamax Pokemon of course have DOUBLE AURA. One is dark shadow aura and another is red cloud plus red aura for Dynamax Pokemon. When battle with Team Go Rocket it should be acquire larger battle space because those Pokemon will turn to huge size. Unlike Dynamax raid, when players and Team Go Rocket when they hold Pokeball, it will immediately turn to max ball and players and Go Team Rocket throw the max ball then Dynamax Pokemon for players definitely for Shadow Dynamax Pokemon will show off. Only Dynamax Pokemon will allowed for players to use in this kind of battle. Shadow Dynamax Pokemon can be purify to become Purified Dynamax Pokemon. As usual, shadow dark aura will replace with Bright Light Aura and Red Cloud plus Red Aura, this is Purified Dynamax Pokemon..
Another mythical Pokemon special research must introduce in Pokemon Go, this special research to lead players a guaranteed Dynamax Mythical Pokemon. For example Dynamax ( Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Shaymin, Victini, Meleotta, Keldeo, Diancie, Hoopa Confine, Marshadow, Magearna, Zarude, Volcanian?, Zeraora? etc) Must at least have two special researhes for each type Dynamax Mythical Pokemon. One is grant Dynamax Mythical Pokemon another will grant Shiny Dynamax Mythical Pokemon..
Quite happy that my highest cp Pokémon are these listed: Dawn Wings Necrozma: 4618cp Dusk Maine Necrozma: 4598cp Kyogre: 4586 Groudon: 4573 Nihilego: 4311
I do think that niantic is somehow ruining player’s money as well as effort at raids and community day.Before the update, people may spend a lot of money to hunt for great raid attacker like kartana, shadow raikou, reshiram, and terrakion ,although they are still strong, they cannot be used for duo raid as they cannot output the most amount of damage. This change affects all of the trainer especially the trainer in rural area. They need to build up another several Pokémon in order to duo a raid with no help of other people.
Why should I power up, evolve, invest in anything when it’s: 1) extremely expensive to power up in the first place 2) one time only legacy, CD, raid/power spot event exclusive moves; and now evolutions (looking at shiny shadow Koffing) 3) Isolated power-up resources required for Dynamax/Gigantamax forms 4) Seasonal tuning that negates previous investments Like, I want to evolve my Dynamax Scorbunny to take on the Giganamax starters. BUT the eventual Comm Day exclusive moves and potential for Gigantamax Shiny debut just makes it feel like a “waste of time and resources”. I get the pressure to make these types of decisions feel impactful. But, it just feels paralyzing at this point.
Bro Fairy is 5/5. Like every second Legendary Raid has Dragon Type, and also extremely useful against Fighting Type for example Zamazenta and against Dark Type for example Darkrai.
Bad timing for this video! I read on reddit Niantic a couple of days ago reverted it all back to before the changes (of course without telling us). Pokebattler Celandro was part of the Reddit chat so I believe it's true because he didn't say otherwise and of all people he must know. Celandro said that these changes are his "personal nightmare" - which is understandable. I was actually OK with these changes because I think we had lots more positive move changes than negative. The only thing I'm negative about is having to relearn my knowledge of moves again which will of course take a long time. But right now they changed it all back to "normal" as I said so maybe we won't have to anyway?
I personally don't mind changes, if they help us to beat the obvious buff they put on raids recently, but at the same time with these changes they made were rather disastrous to legitimate business. First and foremost, non-CD moves suddenly surpassed CD moves by a bit, in that basically if the pokemon had a full bar STAB move, you were going with that instead of what most CD moves are for raid attackers being 2 bar charges. If this isn't an issue to begin with, this also would affect Niantics $$ in a way as Elite fast/charged tms are no longer needed as half the CD moves became obsolete to the raiding standpoint, so if not for a stat line standpoint this is a business model issue too. Secondly, I know Daxi was looking at a certain website and many different ones tell you many different things, but to me one raid attacker stands out above all other ones: that is excadrill and metagross. From a couple other sites, they have excadrill over metagross (and some they have meta over ex, BUT), so you're meaning to tell me, a 2 stage, non-legacy semi-common pokemon requiring less resources to obtain, is stronger than a 3 stage pseudo, WITH it's legacy move, and being a fairly rarer spawn? That to me states there is a huge problem, and while the buffs are cool, they need to immediately ensure pokemon that SHOULD be on top are, because that's crazy to me. A harder to get, more resource driven, and specially timed move is being beaten out by something you can grab on a normal sunny day.
Really annoys me when a pokemon's best moves are legacy moves that aren't readily available, due to the drought of elite tm's. For example, the recent kyogre and groudon raids did not feature the legacy moves and due to the recent raid days for the primals, i felt no need to do any raids. I feel like there should be another way to get the signature move on a pokemon, such as paying a large candy cost.
Your meta collection really doesn't matter when a regular 5* raid boss can be beaten by 4-5 trainers with decent mons. I've been playing from the beginning and I remember when we had to gather 12 trainers to beat a Lugia. Now raiding is easier than ever with remote raids, leveling up to 40 takes a month if you are slow and after this I see crying babies, "OMG my favourite mon got nerfed, hate Niantic". I spent millions of startdust to max out my Eeveeolutions, non of them are top meta (maybe Glaceon but it's because Ice type has low overall DPS) and I don't care. Play for fun. thx
The move rebalance is promising but is also annoying and raising uncertainty. Like if I knew Draco Meteor would become better than Outrage I would've waited to evolve into Dragonite. At the same time I don't want to use an elite tm as they might change things up again and Outrage might end up being better again.
Question: I got an Annilape 1° for GBL, but it hasn't Rage FIst, I have Elite CHarge TM, and i have a Primeape as a tentative 8° Annilape, is worth Have an "1° + Elite TM Annihape (2/15/15)" or an "8° Annihape (1/15/15)"? In other words: Should I spend the Elite TM in a number 1° Annilape? Or save it for any other pokemon and rise the 8° Annilape w/ Rage fist?
Also some of these type ratings are not factoring in common raid quadryple weaknesses. Sveral moms are double weak to ground, fire, rock, and ice so those are even more effective, especially ice.
I was unaware of changes like this being that I’m just returning to Pokemon go from when it initially was released whole different app I battled a player he let me kill his first 2 Pokémon then kyorge with unmounted defense and hp touched my team disrespectfully
I got a hundo Charmander from a max raid and immedeatly evolved it. Should I give it Blast Burn? It is a top fire type raid attacker, but is it worth using an elite TM on?
“We fixed raids”
1. Do not see animations for charged attacks anymore.

Ah yes mega gengar, my favorite fairy type
@@aximat lol, ope
I would consider the dragon type should higher up in the ranking since a solid number of dual role attackers outside their legends that allow role compression. Once I start getting second moves on my shadow garchomps I'll have my dragon and ground teams covered which is nice 3 shadow one mega and 2 regular as flex while I build my second shadow Groudon
When you made your old video like this, you put all the Pokémon of one type on the screen at once I would screen shot that. In future videos hook us up with that graphic please 🙏. Thanks for the content. From a fan in Wv ✌️😎
Finally tysm PokeDaxi
Great graphics, would stil love to see numbers! It would help compare how much better 1 vs 2 is etc
The issue here is Niantic should have said something when the changes happened instead of going silent. Perhaps it was an accident, but then one could argue why hasn’t it been reverted and to that I have no answer. I think people wouldnt have been as upset if Niantic announced with the new season the raid meta was changing because then people wouldn’t have spent candy and stardust on their pokemon which aren’t as good as they once were. Metas are gonna change in a game regardless of the time invested it’s bound to happen because if not it will get stale fast, but how they went about doing it wasn’t the right way.
This is why I don't power up pokemons sometimes or just power up a bit, since it might not be useful or just waste my stardust. Good thing I didn't power up any of my Kartana's
The budget options section should not have been taken out. Im sure the types that only had legendaries, shadows and megas were completely useless for a lot of players.
Glad we are getting a video about great Pokémon after the rework thanks Dax
6:55 take a shot every time he says shadow
yo some moves are different on the graphics than you mentioned… so what’s the right move then..?
I wouldnt say the normal type is useless. Its pretty good when you dont have a pokemon thats a top attacker, it can be an all rounder like Regigigas with Giga Impact
Where can I get this in written/chart form?
prolly pokemon go hub website. But idk if they already updated their charts
Pokemon go hub is a good spot
Twitter
@@declan1125could you pls elaborate, Daxi’s twitter?
It also looks like they may be preparing to shift around the meta seasonally, hence why as we get into October Ghost types got a big buff and Poison (which Ghost resists) got nerfed, or how we are approaching Winter and Ice types got buffed.
The usefullness rating was interesting as i use rock, dark, ground, grass, fire and fairy only types in raids. Coverage pretty much everywhere so less to focus on and power up.
I think it is fundamentally wrong to nerf Pokemon or nerf moves after people have invested in them. Another slap in the face from Niantic. No surprise in that at all.
Thanks! Can you do one video like this for PvP? It’d be great!
I think your ratings for the types are very fair and well thought out. Fantastic work man
Except ice is on the same level as ground when the ice types in the game are so bad glaceon makes an appearance
9:54 - SO WHICH MOVE IS BETTER? FROST BREATH OR ICE SHARD?
Dang was I wanted to see what the normal types were talkin about. I have a 13/15/13 shadow regigigas I’ve been debating powering up.
In other videos he confirms (in his opinion) Regigigas, Slaking, etc are "useless" cuz of the lack of damage they do in important aspects (normal type, move set, raids usefulness etc)
I’m so ready to up my power raids for pokemon
"we might change it over time"
so that basically means that they can turn around everything at their own will whenever they think its right? So it's literally pointless to power up any pokemons since its not safe they be usefull over time.
They really that greedy for money...
Perfect bc I have a lot of dust that needs to get spent:D
Just curious how much is alot to you? I have 6mill stardust. 🤔
@@DittosDungeonI currently have 3 mill but I have had up to 7-8 mill before

Too many mega pokemon
yeah.. i always use mega only for candy bonus..... not for attacking...
@@SirMopythen you’re crazy? Thats like what they’re here for
wait til ZA comes out. were getting more ;)
Gotta watch your own videos to see if it came out how you wanted, since some moves were shown different than what you said in audio. Not everyone will hear it and listen they’ll most likely go off visuals so just wanted to let you know besides that great video 👌🏻
terrakion wrong fast move (shows smack down)
For anyone confused or wondering, the pictures on screen are the correct moves and info
Appreciate you, Dax. Haven’t watched yet but know it’ll be a good one.
Will this affect PVP? Will my Moonblast 100% Xerneas be less optimal?
@Poké Daxi could you make a list like this but without the mega and shadow pokémon? I don't have megas and the shadow ones are bad. With the latest update, which budget pokémon are best to raid and battle? Thank you, it would mean a lot to me.
one small thingy; glazeon iceshard in audio, frost breath visual. thanks for the good video btw! :)
You think this pokemons in this Video are perfekt to Attack gyms?
Based In What I’ve seen on Reddit, it looks like they changed the moves back to what the DPS roughly were, to scale with the 0.5s changes they did.
I’m really bummed bc Gamepress used to show Shadow magnezone #1 now it’s back to 8 :(((((
I need a graphic for this. Memory overload. Eventually I'll remember, though. :) Thanks for the video, and covering such important info!
this is hilarious because it has changed 2 more times since this video has come out
Given that one can only mega evolve one Pokemon at the time and that good/worthy IVs of shadow versions are difficult to obtain and costly to power up, could you make a similar video with top non megas, non primal and non shadow Pokemons? That would be nice :)
Thanks for dropping this before 2x Transfer Candy. I was worried I’d transfer something useful. 😂
Your ability to pronounce all of the ‘mons names correctly deserves an award
You should make a tier list instead. Just mention the moves like you already do and it would simplify everything
Thanks! An update video for pvp would be useful as well~
Spectrier became an elite raid legendary Pokemon during the Day of the Death event or Halloween event.
Glastrier will be an elite raid legendary Pokemon for holiday or Christmas event.
Where did you get this info? A year ago we were already expecting Keldeo in elite raids.
A few of these are in raids rn so pretty cool!
Having Ghost the same as Bug at 2/5 is an insane take especially when you list Water at 3/5 when it only has a single good attacker.
Finally got Zacian, Gengar and Muk combo in that raid went pretty well
Now I want to comment on how to introduce SHADOW DYNAMAX POKEMON AND IT'S SHINY.
Same method battle with Go Team Rocket members but dark Pokestops will have red aura cloud on top of it indicates team go rocket has a Shadow Dynamax Pokemon. When come to leaders and boss, red cloud Pokestops will appears when players uses Rocket Radar and Super Rocket Radar respectively.
Shadow Dynamax Pokemon of course have DOUBLE AURA. One is dark shadow aura and another is red cloud plus red aura for Dynamax Pokemon.
When battle with Team Go Rocket it should be acquire larger battle space because those Pokemon will turn to huge size. Unlike Dynamax raid, when players and Team Go Rocket when they hold Pokeball, it will immediately turn to max ball and players and Go Team Rocket throw the max ball then Dynamax Pokemon for players definitely for Shadow Dynamax Pokemon will show off.
Only Dynamax Pokemon will allowed for players to use in this kind of battle.
Shadow Dynamax Pokemon can be purify to become Purified Dynamax Pokemon. As usual, shadow dark aura will replace with Bright Light Aura and Red Cloud plus Red Aura, this is Purified Dynamax Pokemon..
Another mythical Pokemon special research must introduce in Pokemon Go, this special research to lead players a guaranteed Dynamax Mythical Pokemon.
For example Dynamax ( Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Shaymin, Victini, Meleotta, Keldeo, Diancie, Hoopa Confine, Marshadow, Magearna, Zarude, Volcanian?, Zeraora? etc)
Must at least have two special researhes for each type Dynamax Mythical Pokemon. One is grant Dynamax Mythical Pokemon another will grant Shiny Dynamax Mythical Pokemon..
Thanks again for this, Daxi. I hope to find better moves on Pokémon.
Quite happy that my highest cp Pokémon are these listed:
Dawn Wings Necrozma: 4618cp
Dusk Maine Necrozma: 4598cp
Kyogre: 4586
Groudon: 4573
Nihilego: 4311
I do think that niantic is somehow ruining player’s money as well as effort at raids and community day.Before the update, people may spend a lot of money to hunt for great raid attacker like kartana, shadow raikou, reshiram, and terrakion ,although they are still strong, they cannot be used for duo raid as they cannot output the most amount of damage. This change affects all of the trainer especially the trainer in rural area. They need to build up another several Pokémon in order to duo a raid with no help of other people.
New to pokemon go, ive recently got some good Groudon and Kyogre. Do i have to wait for an event to get the currency to primal reversion them?
awesome vid!! keep them coming !!
Why should I power up, evolve, invest in anything when it’s:
1) extremely expensive to power up in the first place
2) one time only legacy, CD, raid/power spot event exclusive moves; and now evolutions (looking at shiny shadow Koffing)
3) Isolated power-up resources required for Dynamax/Gigantamax forms
4) Seasonal tuning that negates previous investments
Like, I want to evolve my Dynamax Scorbunny to take on the Giganamax starters. BUT the eventual Comm Day exclusive moves and potential for Gigantamax Shiny debut just makes it feel like a “waste of time and resources”.
I get the pressure to make these types of decisions feel impactful. But, it just feels paralyzing at this point.
Bro Fairy is 5/5. Like every second Legendary Raid has Dragon Type, and also extremely useful against Fighting Type for example Zamazenta and against Dark Type for example Darkrai.
Bad timing for this video! I read on reddit Niantic a couple of days ago reverted it all back to before the changes (of course without telling us). Pokebattler Celandro was part of the Reddit chat so I believe it's true because he didn't say otherwise and of all people he must know. Celandro said that these changes are his "personal nightmare" - which is understandable. I was actually OK with these changes because I think we had lots more positive move changes than negative. The only thing I'm negative about is having to relearn my knowledge of moves again which will of course take a long time. But right now they changed it all back to "normal" as I said so maybe we won't have to anyway?
I personally don't mind changes, if they help us to beat the obvious buff they put on raids recently, but at the same time with these changes they made were rather disastrous to legitimate business.
First and foremost, non-CD moves suddenly surpassed CD moves by a bit, in that basically if the pokemon had a full bar STAB move, you were going with that instead of what most CD moves are for raid attackers being 2 bar charges. If this isn't an issue to begin with, this also would affect Niantics $$ in a way as Elite fast/charged tms are no longer needed as half the CD moves became obsolete to the raiding standpoint, so if not for a stat line standpoint this is a business model issue too.
Secondly, I know Daxi was looking at a certain website and many different ones tell you many different things, but to me one raid attacker stands out above all other ones: that is excadrill and metagross. From a couple other sites, they have excadrill over metagross (and some they have meta over ex, BUT), so you're meaning to tell me, a 2 stage, non-legacy semi-common pokemon requiring less resources to obtain, is stronger than a 3 stage pseudo, WITH it's legacy move, and being a fairly rarer spawn? That to me states there is a huge problem, and while the buffs are cool, they need to immediately ensure pokemon that SHOULD be on top are, because that's crazy to me. A harder to get, more resource driven, and specially timed move is being beaten out by something you can grab on a normal sunny day.
could you share the reddit post?
Really annoys me when a pokemon's best moves are legacy moves that aren't readily available, due to the drought of elite tm's. For example, the recent kyogre and groudon raids did not feature the legacy moves and due to the recent raid days for the primals, i felt no need to do any raids. I feel like there should be another way to get the signature move on a pokemon, such as paying a large candy cost.
finally, been waiting for this video. respect
Is there somewhere to find this info in a list so I can easily work out what I need to level and what category I should make them?
Your meta collection really doesn't matter when a regular 5* raid boss can be beaten by 4-5 trainers with decent mons. I've been playing from the beginning and I remember when we had to gather 12 trainers to beat a Lugia. Now raiding is easier than ever with remote raids, leveling up to 40 takes a month if you are slow and after this I see crying babies, "OMG my favourite mon got nerfed, hate Niantic". I spent millions of startdust to max out my Eeveeolutions, non of them are top meta (maybe Glaceon but it's because Ice type has low overall DPS) and I don't care. Play for fun. thx
Who is leveling up to 40 in a month?💀 i dont think its possible unless you spend a lot like maxed pokemon storage max items and then raid hard
@@arjavjain7229I got my alt to level 40 in maybe a month and a half playing casually. Friendship exp is broken.
The move rebalance is promising but is also annoying and raising uncertainty. Like if I knew Draco Meteor would become better than Outrage I would've waited to evolve into Dragonite. At the same time I don't want to use an elite tm as they might change things up again and Outrage might end up being better again.
I have 2 shadow ground on both terrible IV’s. 1 is 6/11/7 and the other is 7/11/6 should i upgrade any?
should i get and power up shadow heatran?
Question: I got an Annilape 1° for GBL, but it hasn't Rage FIst, I have Elite CHarge TM, and i have a Primeape as a tentative 8° Annilape, is worth Have an "1° + Elite TM Annihape (2/15/15)" or an "8° Annihape (1/15/15)"?
In other words: Should I spend the Elite TM in a number 1° Annilape? Or save it for any other pokemon and rise the 8° Annilape w/ Rage fist?
this video might have been a little before zacian was released again but metal claw/play rough zacian is in the top 3 for fairy attackers
isnt outrage better than draco meteor in raids? (shadow salamence, shadow dragonite)
Great analysis
Im looking for a good pokemon to do raids with and trading my galarian shiny zapdos for it
Tbh, I believe this is already outdated and the Silph league research stuff is still in progress for the change they did a little bit ago.
I was just thinking this morning that I need to power something up since I have like 81 rare candy saved up. Good timing lol
Been waiting on this video, I have way to many rare candies right now and I’m trying to figure out which pokemon to use them on.
Also some of these type ratings are not factoring in common raid quadryple weaknesses. Sveral moms are double weak to ground, fire, rock, and ice so those are even more effective, especially ice.
Do these changes also affect gym battles?
Thanks for being a great information pogo youtuber bro
2:10, gengar... Dark type?
Bro come on. Gengar isn't a dark type....He's talking about Dark Type TDO...Gengar has Dark Type moves and high TDO. 😂
Do you think the necrozma forms will return?
I don’t think they are returning anytime soon
Breaking swipe got nerfed from 50 power to 35 power for the dragon category. That’s why it’s not there in any of the mons that learn it.
I was unaware of changes like this being that I’m just returning to Pokemon go from when it initially was released whole different app I battled a player he let me kill his first 2 Pokémon then kyorge with unmounted defense and hp touched my team disrespectfully
I got a hundo Charmander from a max raid and immedeatly evolved it. Should I give it Blast Burn? It is a top fire type raid attacker, but is it worth using an elite TM on?
Blast burn was kinda nerfed but still the preferred option
The fact that genesect is not in the top bug attackers despite being a mythical is wild to me
Watching a few RUclipsrs made my standards so high I don’t even power up 90%iv shinys
