Don’t you just love when cubchoo is a mareep?

[@statsyyl205]

Lol

[@Bugis3-Gaming]

I noticed too

[@BipolarBarbieStreamz]

I had to make sure I wasn’t hearing things lol. Or being trolled lmao

[@Toaster139]

I thought I was going insane

[@ampharosplays]

everything is mareep. mareep is god

[@Rickyramos87]

I remember when everyone lost it when the shiny ditto showed what the shiny Xerneas would look like

[@parth17bhatia]

and shiny yveltal as well.

[@blackbullet4254]

Lost it why?

[@kids3wellard499]

As in everybody went crazy

[@3neoexodus]

btw every shiny is viewable on serebii, just look up a pokemon you want. the official games shows their shinies before GO does ☝️

[@rioluwu5921]

About the myth where ditto can/can't predict the raid boss's CP: I understand how ditto works well, after using it often as a joke during raids and gym battles. The way ditto works in Pokemon Go is that when it tranforms, it keeps it's LEVEL and HP STAT. So, a level 20 ditto would transform into a level 20 Ho-oh, if you were to fight it, for example. Because of this feature, if you go into a raid with a level 20 ditto (or level 25, if the boss is weather-boosted) then you CAN actually get an accurate representation of one of the potential cps... However, from what I understand, the ditto would have to be a hundo to get the hundo CP after transformation occurs; and this doesn't mean it corrolates with the Bosses catch CP, since the boss is not necessarily the hundo. Hope this helps anyone who reads this!

[@pyro-plays]

Ok, my question is, if you use a hundo ditto in raids, will its CP always be the same (except for weather boost) or will it change at all based on the raid boss's IVs? If it changes, then you could still tell if a raid boss has good or bad IVs before the encounter, and a chart could be created to map the ditto's CP to the boss's CP. That's a lot of work just to predict something you'll see when the raid ends, BUT if it does work, you could in theory join a raid and then leave if your Ditto's CP is very low, then try again.

[@pyro-plays]

Normally I would say that the boss's IVs aren't set until the catch screen, but I know that at the end of the raid you can watch the boss's CP tick down to the actual catch CP. That means at some point before the encounter, the IVs are already set. Is that at the beginning of the raid, or only after beating the boss?

[@Larmichou]

I didn't tested it, but I guess, that it's correct. You just get the Ditto transforming into the faced Pokémon (here a Raid boss), but with the ditto level and IVs. Meaning, that two dittos (with different IVs) should have different CP against the raid boss. Knowing that, you'd need to go back to the charts of that raid boss, check the correct CP for these set of IVs (the dittos ones). I guess that would have been a better "myth busted" by @Mystic7. Easy tests then would be to use a zero IV ditto (or more or less) and a 100 IVs ditto (or more or less) for the comparison in IVs to be more seeable.

[@YooooooooParrot]

Is there any way to get darkrai now? I've been hunting for it for ages

He didn't mix them up. He lost the footage for cubchoo, in which he instead used a mareep

[@sergioalonso9273]

I think the 5star raid solo is "confirmed" but not completely, u can do it with a few seconds to spare IF it's a dual type with both types having a common weakness, hence why genesect and scizor were used in the examples

[@brandonwilson9614]

I love these type of videos you’ve been making lately, these like “facts” video, they’re great! And a bit more refreshing then you just playing! ☺️💯👍🏼

[@deanmacnamane]

Golden opportunity for one of the rarest screenshots in the game. A "tiny" shiny primal kyoger.

[@GustoFormula]

I also got a screenshot of a tiny Primal Groudon, really curious if it always says tiny for some reason or if that's just a weird coincidence.

[@leeozbun7259]

To get the shiny ditto to transform into a shiny (released or not) you have to transform, swap out, then swap back into ditto, and it will be shiny :)

[@rioluwu5921]

It doesn't stay as a shiny afterwards, though

[@eagleking48]

love seeing Jake in more semi-collab vids haha you two are lucky to have a great brotherly bond

[@KZ-kl8fx]

That last myth really broke my heart you ain’t have to trade your buddy like that 🥺

[@FlaCKoElRey]

Can we get more of these vids ! And, bring Jake too, he’s obv lucky & makes things funnier when, he gets a random hundo from you. 😂

[@mavericklau5628]

hi Mystic, seeing the myth on the mega evolved pokemon get me curious about two things. 1. If I traded a mega evolved pokemon (eg. Charizard) to someone who never mega evolved Charizard before (due to lack of mega energy), will he be getting a mega evolved Charizard that he can do the mega evolved change? 2. If I was to trade away my only mega evolved Charizard, will I still be able to get mega energy from my other Charizard that never mega evolved if I set it as my buddy?

[@onechubbycub]

This is so good keep on the good work mystic

3:10 you'd need a level 20 or 25 (for weather boost) Ditto to be able to do this with any accuracy

[@badwithusernames3238]

I can’t believe he just proved mostly known facts and ditto things he’s already covered years ago. Also a “sneak peak” to future shinies? My guy you can just look them up

Did u watch the vid? He literally said he lost the cubchoo footage and was demonstrating the mareep as If it was the cubchoo.

[@Ezeatslaho]

@@benieboi yeah hahaha

[@violet5781]

I noticed a new myth with catching ditto. I heard several times that you could use the weather boost to help spot ditto. E.g. its cloudy= fairy, fighting, and poison are boosted. In theory, a snubbul or grimer that shows without weather boost would be a ditto, while cloudy. Proved that wrong today, caught a grimer that clearly said weather boosted, and it turned into a ditto 👌

[@GustoFormula]

I think you misunderstood. A weather boosted pokemon is at least lvl 6, but if you see one that is under 100 ish CP it is guaranteed to be a Ditto.

[@cupcakesandstrawberries8079]

5:22 Mystic 7: What happens when you use a shiny ditto in a raid? me: I legit caught a shiny ditto today

[@you123kiFe]

for the myth of the repredictting the boss's cp you need also so that the ditto that you are using would be lvl 20, and with the encounter's iv. because if it has any other lvl or iv it would be other cp

[@iLuZioN]

This video came on automatically for me after watching another video and falling alseep slowly and it started with „For the next 24h I‘ll be busting“ and started buffering, I was just like wtf😂😂😂

[@LilSlimeee]

i love your vids so MUCHHHHHHH THEYRE SO ENTERTAINING

[@phillipcokley683]

I appreciate the myth busting videos but I would have preferred a normal event video for this one

[@gamillerjr]

Love the vids keep it up

[@Perthcelts]

I wish someone would explain to Pokémon go players how odds work with RNG. if it’s 1/20 that does not mean you will 100% get a shiny within 20 pokemon. It means each time that singular pokemon spawns it has a 1/20 chance of being shiny. To explain it simpler, if you have five packs of cards and there’s a 1/5 chance of you pulling a certain card that doesn’t mean within the five packs you have you will 100% get the card. I hope you all can make sense of this.. it’s not 1 out of 20. It’s 1 in 20. There’s a huge difference

[@mayhemgames5485]

These vids are amazing

[@WindscaleAx]

About the solo T5 raid, there's someone on reddit posted of them solo raiding Ho-Oh and they did it really well with remaining 75 seconds.

[@togliz]

I’ve soloed Guzzlord, but that was me in cloudy weather with all fairy types against a Guzzlord with dragon moves. Even so, did it with like 80+ seconds to spare.

[@joemerkovich8908]

Lets be honest, mystic7 is the only reason pokemon go is not a dead game

[@VanessaDMusic]

Pokedaxi?

[@rioluwu5921]

Nah. Mystic may be a large PoGo KZbinr, but people like Trainer Club have more of an impact, and Jonkus/Pokedaxi/Trainer Tips are still large parts of the community as well... not to mention, millions of people probably play and don't watch any pogo youtubers

[@jesseduiker]

Super helpful great job I just caught a shiny hoho

I actually knew that 2016 trades are guaranteed to be lucky. I met a guy during the Hoenn Global tour who had a couple Kangaskhan from 2016. And he traded me one because I needed it for my pokedex. Sure enough, even though the Bagon I sent him wasn’t from 2016, the trade was lucky

[@ShaneOMalle]

The pokestops are getting crazy..They just added sidewalks in my neighborhood. Theres about 16 stops in 4 blocks on both sides of the road now. So 30+ stops in 4 blocks.

When he said “Silk Road” I was concerned for a second 😂

[@sewykik5004]

for the ditto cp myth, it would have to be the same level as the raid boss in the encounter screen (i believe level 25) to potentially be the same cp

[@Giro98-gg]

no ditto's iv will show the raid pokemons iv example: ditto 96% lvl 40 will show raichu (raid boss) pc at lvl 40 with 96%

[@sewykik5004]

@@Giro98-gg yes, but to see it in the raid battle, the ditto’s level would have to be the same as the raid boss’s level in the encounter screen, which i believe is level 25 (i could be mistaken)

I wanna see this tested too!

[@Pixelkip]

I came back after a few years and I’m not even lying I’ve gotten like 28 shinys in the past two months. A large majority just wild spawns so yea I think it’s true. Cuz I didn’t get a shiny this whole month until a shiny ditto yesterday and the comm day ones which are kinda a given

24 myths in 24 hours!: literally the 1st myth taking 3 days:

[@lucideirune1635]

Here are some other myths: You can very occasionally get 0 eggs from gifts It is possible to get a shadow shiny nundo. The Pokemon that hatch from eggs that cannot be shiny take up about 3/4 of the hatches.

[@coreybrown970]

love your vids

[@ragbag007]

With ditto you have to switch out once transformed and then switch in again

[@kevinjvn5]

Maybe the ditto can predict the boss cp if ditto is as the same level as the raid boss? ie: lvl20 or lvl25 with weather boost

[@TMB-uc1rs]

I was thinking the same thing

[@rioluwu5921]

Yes, but it's more complex as well. The ditto will use its stats and level to calculate the CP after transformation, from what I've theorized. This means that a level 20 hundo ditto will have the CP of a level 20 hundo Lugia (as an example) after transforming into that Lugia. That being said, ditto's cp at level 20 after transforming will always be the same, if it transforms into the same thing, and the IVs, level, etc. of the ditto are the same. Hundo ditto having the cp for hundo Lugia doesn't mean the Lugia will be a hundo, is basically what I'm saying; ditto has its own stats while Lugia would have its own stats as well.

I love your vids man I really do

[@bindernbowtie]

Ah yes my favorite sheep Cubchoo

[@parth17bhatia]

5:47 the ditto used to transform into a shiny verson of the pokrmon back in 2021 when shiny ditto was first released to kantp tour players. Niantic removed that feature before releasing the shiny ditto to everyone. Why? Because Niantic hates fun (wise words by Mystic7, 2021). 6:20 exactly what I meant. It used to work. 11:06 it used to work before but Niantic changed the mega system. I have personally traded away many pokemon by mega evolving once so that my friends could get the pokemon with the mega energy cost of 40. But I guess Niantic hates the community aspect of the game.

[@TheDeathNote2]

7:33 is that raging waters park in San Jose?

[@dracofluffypants]

I think its funny that when your testing the shiny ditto you call mareep cubchu

[@CrypticSnaps]

Also if you didn’t know apparently from what I’m told, you can use a shiny ditto to see unreleased shinys

[@Mr._Mints]

He tested that in the video... It doesn't work.

[@kaiserarshhussain1885]

About the shadow pokemon myth, im pretty sure once u become a best friend with the person you are trading, it is possible.

[@leonsmith8193]

Is this another myth...Zorua disguises into your buddy.

[@theremainingwales767]

Can you see the ditto before catching it? Does it have a “tell” that lets you know you found one in the wild?

[@DutchDesires]

I have an other busted myth for ya. In your previous videos you said the shiny encounter rate of meltan would be 1 in 64. Me and my friends have caught a total of 862 Meltans with just 1 being shiny. Pretty sure that means myth busted.

[@Euro4816]

The 2016 and 2017 lucky trade pokemon are garanteed but only the first 10 pokemon traded, if at least one of the player do less than 10 pokemons traded from those years. I dont know if its a 100% true, but i remember seeing a video about this

With the 2016 lucky if on your account if you don’t have more than 15 lucky Pokémon overall (transferring counts) then it will be guaranteed lucky. After 15 it is just a higher chance it will be lucky the older the Pokémon.

[@avionmurch1298]

2016 Pokemon are actually guaranteed to create a lucky trade every time so long as their from July or August of that year, and the other pokemon can be from whenever I tested this out with my original account which I started at day 1 and it worked 20/20 times.
