Apologies, I forgot to put the asterisk for Gengar’s Lick - this move requires elite tm

[@movieEdits812]

these videos help me a lot keep it up man!! how do u get an elite tm?

[@pepi6262]

​@hpEdits617 you can get a elite tm from a community day box, or getting rank 20 in gbl. I believe you also have a chance of getting it from the 7 day pokestop streak or from a research package 📦

[@danielsummerville6799]

My guy, I really appreciate how realistic you are with all of this for newer/returning players. You distinguish the difference between WAS easy to get due to past comm day, and IS actually an OK daily spawn. You're literally the only person I've seen accurately describe beedrill mega energy drops as rare. I'm so over hearing about how "easily accessible" Larvitars and Drilburs are. I literally had to walk 300km to finally get my Tyranitar, lol. This was such a breath of fresh air, thank you good sir 😊

[@pogotrnr]

Hey you’re welcome and I’m glad you like my style of content, thanks a lot for watching! 😄

[@basillah7650]

You could have used rare candy for evolution common in raid/research task,route reward and pvp reward unless you were walking for xl candy to max out

[@Kaffelop]

Just recently discovered you and have enjoyed your videos. A lil' opinion on this video: The "future" pokemons are somewhat meh to be mentioned. They just adds up to video length. Can be years before they are introduced if ever. Also would it be cool to have all types stacking up on the scoreboard for comparisment along the way.

[@pogotrnr]

Glad you are enjoying them! And thanks for the feedback, both fair points!

[@basillah7650]

@@pogotrnr Its good to put future pokemon because it means video is not out dated when they are released.

[@RoshiNoya-no2he]

What about iv's? Which to power up, like a 96% 14/15/14 vs 15/13/13?

[@thebyrd433]

Very nice video! Liked the inclusion of a good number of budget picks because they often get ignored by others, and that's too bad for FTP and new players. One quibble: For me, I would have put grass types on the C tier at least because I use them against water types all the time, and my Mega Sceptile was what took down Giovanni's shadow Kyogre in just a few seconds. Not to mention ground and rock types are super-common, and grass types will take those down fast.

[@pogotrnr]

Hey glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for the feedback!

[@thebyrd433]

@@pogotrnr I'll be turning a friend of mine who just started playing a few months ago onto your videos. Too many PoGo channels assume that everyone has a lot of Legendaries and enough candy/dust to power them up to 50th level, and that's just not the case. More content is needed for FTP/new players, and I'm seeing that on your channel.

[@cutemateio]

Hi, there are a few mistakes. Grass with Mega Sceptile and Kartana make it maybe B tier and you forgot Guzzlord and shadow Guzzlord in dark types and shadow Vivillon is a potential good choice for raids. Is the reason why you didn’t include them is because you forgot or because their attacks are so close but not quite 200?

Honestly im not bothered about what i power up When i get some useful like a groudon kyogre mega heracross then ye im gonna power them up but if i get something thats useless like wooper that im still trying to get a hundo of and ill power them up But this is helpful tho

[@Royvankalken023]

i did trade last raidhour and i got lucky shundo groudon omgg i was sooo hypee

[@WhosJohnGill]

First video I’ve seen of yours. It’s great info for people trying to get into Pokémon GO. Seems like you are speeding through a lot of info slightly too fast though so if you are targeting that newer inexperienced subsection of players you may want to slow down the info. Also as a suggestion you should look up things like “best Pokémon that is future proofed”. For instance maybe not suggesting powering up Blaziken or Heracross because after Mega Lucario releases those two are completely invalidated if you’re going for pure fighting type damage dps output for raids. Even me with 800k catches hasn’t fully invested into my hundo Blaziken it hundo Heracross. Not worth it imo for the stardust cost to get them to level 50.

[@adventuresofgraceroyce]

Surprised to see that Cresselia didnt show up in the list of top Psychic pokemon!

[@pogotrnr]

Its more of a go battle league pokemon - It’s in the top lists for that

[@naterowe5205]

I find it funny how we got baxcalibur before dragpult

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

I completely forget that mega heracross is in the game and is a fighter. Do you know if it has a higher dps than terrakion?

[@basillah7650]

only as mega which you can only use 1 mega terrakion is better than normal heracross also if you live in a area where heracross is not a regional spawn its really hard to get candy for

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

@@basillah7650 I’ve got a 98 heracross and do battle league; candies won’t be an issue, just wondered if it would cut through blisseys faster than my 98 powered up terrakion.

I have a truly horrible Shadow Groudon (6/10/6), without Precipice Blades and a great Shadow Excadrill (15/15/13). I have no candy for either. Where should I put my Rare Candy?

[@WowSuchPerfectWorld]

I'd do the excadrill personally because it's 96% shadow with 15 atk. But hopefully nerds answer you also I'm just a fan of sexy shadows.

[@h2oBkDy]

XL or Regular?

[@JungleEddie]

@h2oBkDy Regular. It would take me forever to get The Groudon just to level 40.

[@h2oBkDy]

@@JungleEddie honestly ur good either way im kinda leaning towards the Excadrill as well . Groudon is dope but it really wants double Elite TM moves so it’s definitely more of an investment

[@NanoMp40]

I'd say to put them on S Groudon. IVs doesn't make that much difference as people think and it's almost always resume by "pokemon species > better IVs". Yeah having or not the legacy moves affects but how much depends a lot. And you can farm Excadrill candies by search nests on a group or simply farm them for some time by walking. Groudon candies? That's way harder to get

[@petomunk9321]

Keldeos Sacred Sword isnt elite TM move, only for terrakion you need elite TM. Just FYI.

I had 2 shadow groudons, was it stupid to purify one? I got him to decent IV and I still have a shadow.

[@petomunk9321]

Shadow is always better, it would be great if you can make primal of one, but since you didnt have one before i guess you dont have that primal energy. So 2 shadows are better even with low IV. They also need elite TM to be really that strong.

[@certifiedmanul]

@@petomunk9321 but I missed groudon and kyogre primal raids and I can’t power them up. I suppose same goes for the other groudon but he gained 2000 cp instantly

[@petomunk9321]

@@certifiedmanul doesnt matter. Even worst shadow is better then hundo non shadow. I mean it doesnt matter that much, now you have different looks of them, but if you ask for performance, ye, never purify is almost always the case for raids.

[@certifiedmanul]

@@petomunk9321 yeah. I hear you. I did it for a few reasons 1. I traded my shiny groudon hoping for a lucky. It was bad iv. Kinda stupid but whatever 2. My other groudon is pretty bad iv as well 3. It was only 900 cp and I didn’t have anything to power him up Of course I’m still sad I missed shadow kyogre by a month. If I could have gone back I would redo it and get only 1 groudon so I could have 2 rayquazas. I returned to the game a month late to have primal kyogre and shadow kyogre sadly

Wasted my Stardust, candies & shadow gengar should have waited for a Event bonus in which lick could be available just by evolving... 😢please edit it as an elite move or just pin a comment of that mistake So no other brother suffers

[@darshrathod4913]

Lick vs shadow claw is basically the same thing. There is so less difference in dps you will never get to know the difference. It was a good choice, because gengar legacy move will probably only come back in halloween.

shouldnt have added all the unreleased pokemon it just makes things more confusing

[@erickdorazco4469]

Why? It makes it easier like why waste XL candy on something that will get beaten out. I would suggest keep your XL candy if you’re free to play cause it’s harder for you guys to get the XL. But if your a raider just power up shadow pokemon only and if you don’t have the IVs you want just send to lvl 40
