I also did 61 raids in total …took me 59 to get the purified Hundo …was gonna stop there but decided to do 2 last one nearby to end the day …on my last one I got the shadow Hundo 🔥🙌🏾
I have three that could be purified to 100% but they are all too valuable as shadows. They are Rhyperior, Kyogre, and Dragonite. Another that I am undecided about is a 13/15/15 Houndoom.
Keep in mind if it’s a useless Pokémon overall I think a hundo flex is more important than having a 13 15 14 or something Pokémon you’ll never even use
my favorite thing to hunt in the game is high IV shadow so I don't really like to purify but for weak shadows it can be useful for hundo collection purposes
Hi Brandon, I wonder if you could make a video about how you cleaning you Pokemon storage and item bag. Plus, in what levels you think needs to increase and how to manage it properly.
Great video! I’m getting back into PokeGo because of Brandon. His content renews my love of the game and his love of the community is great to see. My question is that I need to clean up my Pokemon and I need some guidance: if I want to focus only on raiding, what specific Pokemon would I want to keep? *assuming this is based upon stats* Thanks!
purification means saving a pokemon in pain a.k.a. shadow pokemon. 12:29 A shadow pokemon may be stronger than a purified one but it isn't ethical. A 2/2/2 purified weedle is more ethical than a shadow shundo mewtwo. Pokemon has taught us time and again that power isn't everything. Yes you can take down a raid boss in 1 minutes (with shadow pokemon) rather than in 2 minutes (with non shadow or purified pokemon) but you are sacrifising your morals for power and growing up all the stories I heard had the villain go for power while the protagonist went for the moral decision. And since we are the protagonists of Pokemon Go we should use purified pokemon, despite how tough it is, we should not succumb to the dark side a.k.a. the shadows a.k.a. to team rocket.
Really insightful video... Shadow pokemon were released 4,5 years ago and there is probably 3 people in the world that still don't know how purification works. Thanks for explanation
There are people that just start playing, and the video could be usefull, dont you think? Also, if you already know this, why you click in the video? it was obvious that the video will be about this..
0 IV Shadow Pokémon are stronger than perfect IV ones, but don't they take 20% more damage? What about a 0 IV Shadow vs a regular with PVP IVs like 1/15/15?
I always do this with my mostly useless mons. I have a purified 4* camerupt and shiftry. I was tempted to keep the shiftry at 13-15-14 since seedot is such a common spawn for me, but I also thought the cp boost would make it more useable for me now, and I was never planning on investing in it even as a shadow anyway.
Ok so as a recap. Non-weather boosted shadow Pokemon we encounter have a 1/152 chance to be hundos when purified while weather boosted shadows are 1/64?! I’ve been after this Shadow Bagon for a MINUTE. I guess I’ll wait until it’s windy lol.
if you dont have the 100%, ill say whatever shadow it is, you purify an lucky trade an get a lucky purify pkmn, an get both bonus in reduction in cost of stardust an candy. my brother got a 98% lucky purify mewtwo. just got my 3 shadow hundo, chimchar ;)
i got a question, so i have a shiny lucario and its IV is 15-15-14 so 1 point from 100% IV. if i trade that pokemon with someone, shouldn't it gain that extra point? and can i trade it back
If you had a high IV's Shadow Pokemon (has 13 IV's or above across the Board) you don't purify it Only Purify if: 1. you had a Shadow pokemon that could have better IV's 11's across the board if you prirify it (12 IV's across the board to 14 IV's) 2. The Pokemon has 13+ IV's across the board, but it can mega evolve (Shadow pokemon can't mega Evolve)
To be honest, I always purify any shadow pokemon lower than 98% IV. People play this game for different reasons, and I play the game soley to collect 100% IV pokemon, don't care about its meta relevance.
it's worth it to purify a hundo for Ho-Oh for the Master League. That's the only thing that's worth it right now unless you have several good shadow mewtwo and want to prep for the mega.
I hundo some shadows that arent raid or meta or special like kyogre. Lile have tons of shadow zubat and just purified 1 to a hundo. Then a joltik since shadow joltik isnt that rare for me either. I also got myself a purified hundo garchomp rn. Its mega eligable so
I wouldn't purify, but it would make a nice mega primal Kyogre. You should decide depending on if you already have a good Kyogre for the mega or not. Have fun!
yo! that lvl 30 'mon you just caught in a GO raid aint no "hundo" when you transfer it to HOME, so you can use it (or store it to be used later) in a game and a battle league that really matters. You're gonna need some bottle caps to round out a total of 6 IVs (as opposed to 3)! Then there's the addition of EVs, and one to two more select moves you can teach it - and the strategy that goes along with that choice. PoGO is full of costume 'mon locked in an app which is dying. When it ends, all those cute "exclusive" 'mon, and rare shiny versions of those, and shadows will disappear - forever ... not to mention that by now in the near 8 years you've been walking around the same old town you might have spent more real money on GO than buying the last 3 gamefreak releases exploring their regions (and their dlc).
No. Your Shadow Kyogre is way stronger than a 100% non-shadow kyogre. I'll say save up as much candies as you can and use it in the Master League. It also dominates in raids as it's currently the best water type pokemon in the entire game. Plus shadow just looks way better than a non-shadow lol. Unless you already have a crazy shadow kyogre, and want a hundo for collection, I don't see why not.
So this is just for bragging rights? I was told IVs are minimal dps or defence ect and the dps loss for removing shadow is greater than even a mega evolved version (but 20% less tanky) not that im overly concerned all the shadow pokemon ive got are barely 1-2 stars haha (started two weeks ago)
I am really upset because of the fact that I COULD have a 15’14’15 Mawile 😭 (I want the hundo soooo bad for the mega even if it is weaker its my goal to get every single hundo Mega)
I also did 61 raids in total …took me 59 to get the purified Hundo …was gonna stop there but decided to do 2 last one nearby to end the day …on my last one I got the shadow Hundo 🔥🙌🏾
Did 58 total. Best one I got was going to be 15/12/14 if purified 😫 My disappointed is real
You put a lot of time and candy into helping players do better. I think your videos are amazing. Big fan here!
I have three that could be purified to 100% but they are all too valuable as shadows. They are Rhyperior, Kyogre, and Dragonite. Another that I am undecided about is a 13/15/15 Houndoom.
I have 0iv Shadow shiny dragonite and 0iv Shadow rhyhon
would suggest keeping them as shadows except for the houndoom since he has a mega form and not really useful as a shadow attacker
That kyogre is insanely lucky
Def purify houndoom, I did the same with a swampert before I knew shadows were more powerful but it’s 100 mega so not terrible
If you dont have a hundo Houndoom already then definitely purify so you can Mega evolve it
Kyorge wanting to play with your throat is crazy 😂
kyogre loves brandon in another way than we do!
He forgot to say “ no diddy” 😂
Deepthroat
its nice to hear your voice all good, "i dont need it,i have to many sheeps" had me rolling
Keep in mind if it’s a useless Pokémon overall I think a hundo flex is more important than having a 13 15 14 or something Pokémon you’ll never even use
1:38 I started dancing on this 🗿😂
my favorite thing to hunt in the game is high IV shadow so I don't really like to purify but for weak shadows it can be useful for hundo collection purposes
Hi Brandon, I wonder if you could make a video about how you cleaning you Pokemon storage and item bag. Plus, in what levels you think needs to increase and how to manage it properly.
You can search Pokémon in your storage by 0*, 1*, 2*, etc. Then just spam delete your bad IVs
Did this to my Sableye thanks for the suggestion!
No Tan, NO! The easiest way to get a hundo WITHOUT COMPROMISING GOOD IV SHADOES is by.....TRADING!!! that's the best way to get 100% IV.
Me s very good pokemon go player but 1 iq purified a 100 percent iv shadow mewtwo thinking it would be 101 iv
You can't trade shadow pokemon so this wouldn't be an option
Absolutely love this, it just works! Thank you so much Brandon 😅
Got myself a hundo Houndoom and an Aerodactyl like this, both can Mega Evolve so it was worth it
Great video! I’m getting back into PokeGo because of Brandon. His content renews my love of the game and his love of the community is great to see. My question is that I need to clean up my Pokemon and I need some guidance: if I want to focus only on raiding, what specific Pokemon would I want to keep? *assuming this is based upon stats* Thanks!
Thanks for this tip. I was able to purify 3 shadow pokemon and turn them into hundos.

Just kidding I love your vlogs Brandon! Have fun playing and making vlogs

when i first started i got a 100IV shadow mudkip but thought that it would be stronger if i purified it...... biggest mistake of my life
if you dont have the 100%, ill say whatever shadow it is, you purify an lucky trade an get a lucky purify pkmn, an get both bonus in reduction in cost of stardust an candy.
my brother got a 98% lucky purify mewtwo.
just got my 3 shadow hundo, chimchar ;)
Cheers, for the info Brandon! 👍
My shadow groudon is a 13/13/13. Definitely lvl 51ing it one day. I thought about purification but that’s a horrible idea. I’m super happy with it
I thought I knew this game. 😂 Thank you for a great video!
Big fan bro from india
Bhai apne local creators ko bhi support karo😢
i got a question, so i have a shiny lucario and its IV is 15-15-14 so 1 point from 100% IV. if i trade that pokemon with someone, shouldn't it gain that extra point? and can i trade it back
DO NOT TRADE. It can hypothetically gain that point but, it’s ridiculously improbable. You’d most likely end up with a worse version of that Lucario
And you can't take it back once you trade
If you had a high IV's Shadow Pokemon (has 13 IV's or above across the Board) you don't purify it
Only Purify if:
1. you had a Shadow pokemon that could have better IV's 11's across the board if you prirify it (12 IV's across the board to 14 IV's)
2. The Pokemon has 13+ IV's across the board, but it can mega evolve (Shadow pokemon can't mega Evolve)
am about to level up with you wednesday, would love it to be a raid.
You see?? You learn something everyday.
To be honest, I always purify any shadow pokemon lower than 98% IV. People play this game for different reasons, and I play the game soley to collect 100% IV pokemon, don't care about its meta relevance.
tetin tetin tetin
I got a shadow Lugia with all stats near max. Should I purify for a hundo lugia?
I just caught a 98% shadow Kyogre
I recently got a purified Gardevoir and it is a hundo. From a 3 star Shadow Kirlia. I even gave it new attacks.
Is there a list of which shadows we should purify and ones we should never as better in shadow regardless if there 1/2/3 stars
I love how you say troat lol
Right?😂
I have one none purified pokemon that is 100 iv thst I got from doing a blimp challenge
Hey Brandon is an 98% shadow Venusaur useful for something like raids? i am asking because i could get a 4* mega Venusaur if i purify
I got a shiny shadow bagon that is 15/13/14 do I purify to get the shundo tho?
Salamance has a mega so it is worth it to purify if u got mega energy
I like how he says troat lmao and tyrantitah!
I got three hundo lucarios one day I got also 3 hundo abras in one day and also got 3 hundo Necrozmas :) I stay doing good
I only purify if I have a better shadow iv one
been doing this for years...as long as youre IV is 93% or 96%...and mos def a 98% shadow will become a hundo after purification
i got a cranidos 12/14/14 and another one thats 14/14/8 been debating what to do with them
it's worth it to purify a hundo for Ho-Oh for the Master League. That's the only thing that's worth it right now unless you have several good shadow mewtwo and want to prep for the mega.
yh i got 4* pokemon which im pretty sure arr hundo but how do you get the hundo badges on them?
I have a 13/13/13 Shadow mewtow what do i do im so tempted
kyogre wants to play with your throat brandon
1:45 tetin tetin tetin
If you want hundos just use a hundo scanner in a big city it will tell you all the hundos near by that you can walk to
Hundo scanner?
I have a trapinch that would be a Hundo if I purify it. Or is shadow flygon stronger than a purified one?
Shadow Pokemon do 20% more dmg but take 20% more when defending
I hundo some shadows that arent raid or meta or special like kyogre. Lile have tons of shadow zubat and just purified 1 to a hundo. Then a joltik since shadow joltik isnt that rare for me either.
I also got myself a purified hundo garchomp rn. Its mega eligable so
thitin thitin thitin fotin thitin fotin fotin thitin thitin thitin thitin fotin
I have a 14/14/14 gible, should I purify??
So I recently got Giovanni's Kyogre and its a 14, 13, 14. Should I purify for the hundo or keep it in it's shadow form? Thanks
Keep obv
keep shadow
It's your game, do what you want
I wouldn't purify, but it would make a nice mega primal Kyogre. You should decide depending on if you already have a good Kyogre for the mega or not. Have fun!
Everyone plays the game differently. I do not care for PVP. I would purify that 91 shadow for a purified hundo and the ability to Primal evolve.
yo! that lvl 30 'mon you just caught in a GO raid aint no "hundo" when you transfer it to HOME, so you can use it (or store it to be used later) in a game and a battle league that really matters. You're gonna need some bottle caps to round out a total of 6 IVs (as opposed to 3)!

PoGO is full of costume 'mon locked in an app which is dying. When it ends, all those cute "exclusive" 'mon, and rare shiny versions of those, and shadows will disappear - forever ...
not to mention that by now in the near 8 years you've been walking around the same old town you might have spent more real money on GO than buying the last 3 gamefreak releases exploring their regions (and their dlc).
“Kyogre wanted to play with my throat” 🤨
Is a 0-0-0 shadow rattata rare? Or should I transfer HIM?
Keep that shadow nundo rattata. I have a shadow nundo voltorb
My Shadow chandelure could be a hundo but it's too good in riads.
Good choice
Whatt hack use ?
fighting giovani gave me a shadow kygore that is 14/15/13 should i purify it for a hundo???
No. Your Shadow Kyogre is way stronger than a 100% non-shadow kyogre. I'll say save up as much candies as you can and use it in the Master League. It also dominates in raids as it's currently the best water type pokemon in the entire game. Plus shadow just looks way better than a non-shadow lol. Unless you already have a crazy shadow kyogre, and want a hundo for collection, I don't see why not.
It's your game, do what you want
I’ve got a 13/14/13 groudon from Giovanni in the takeover event. Will it go to 15/15/15 if I purify? Or does Giovanni Pokemon only go up by 1?
It will be max but keep you crypto until groudon will be released as crypto raid boss
Crypto groudon is waaaay stronger than a 100 one
Me Sneasel is 15,12 & 12 . Should i purify?
I made an aipoim hundo hahaha tks!
I have 7 shiney and 89 Hundo but none Shundo out of my 550 pokemons.
How is it 1/64 chance to get a 13/13/13 when the iv floor is 6/6/6?
I guess you are right. It's 1/64 for weather boosted pokemon from usual grunts and about 1/37 for Giovanni.
Bro created a song only by saying tatin tatin tatin, tatin tatin tatin, tatin tatin tatin😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
hi brandon
@brandontan91 so should I not transfer my 0 star shadow pokemon? I’ve been transferring to keep space
Can a shadow be hundo?
Yes, at 5:39
1:47 slapped fr 😂
Can you do Q&A episode❤
Hundo hundo hundo thirteen thirteen thirteen… got it
How do you get so much candy, pokeballs etc?
During a Necrozema raid … you were able to say it was a HUNDO before even catching it. How did you know what IVs it would have?
Go to sites, that leaks info, e.g. leekduck etc. That gave insights about hundo cp pokemon prior to raid
Didn’t realize this till I saw this video and just got a hundo groudon. As shadow it was already 15 15 14
Are taking class?
Me, yes.
What's your major?
Me, Pokemon trainer. Lol😂
Real😂
All of my shadows are 0-1 star. No idea what is meant by 12,13,14,etc
jusr got a sahdow shiny beldum of a grunt
So this is just for bragging rights? I was told IVs are minimal dps or defence ect and the dps loss for removing shadow is greater than even a mega evolved version (but 20% less tanky) not that im overly concerned all the shadow pokemon ive got are barely 1-2 stars haha (started two weeks ago)
I have a Hundo that is shadow
is purefying my groudon worth it
I got a 13/14/15 shadow bagon. Should I purify or no? Please help me out thanks
Nope
Io 22 shiny litten ma nessun 100%

No it had a defense of 12 instead of 13+
Keep your Shadow and Lucky Trade them to get a 100 Shadow but I Purified to get 100% 😡😡
How did they check that it’s a Hundo?
“How Many Thirteens Did I Say, I Do Not Know “
It Was 22 Lol
Bye bye batman voice

I am really upset because of the fact that I COULD have a 15’14’15 Mawile 😭
(I want the hundo soooo bad for the mega even if it is weaker its my goal to get every single hundo Mega)
I have a shadow shiny mewtwo that i can purify to 100% but it is to valuboule

Nooooo
Hell no
Hundo larvesta flex 😎
