https://ibb.co/fCue8e Deoxys is very very easy to beat and catch. Our team had 240 seconds to spare. Use silver pinaps to catch! I caught on the first ball. FistEnergy fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Oct 1, 2018 |

I do hear of local Discord groups or Silph Road doing things like keeping leaderboards of post-40 exp levels but if he's actively sabotaging local raid groups just for leaderboard positions? I hope everyone just private groups him out.Bobulus posted:Snagged Deoxys Normal this morning. Seemed to have a fairly lenient catch rate, based on the people in the group. EX raids will probably keep the same base catch rate so as not to upset people that earned a pass and took extra time out to come to these.

DEEP STATE PLOT posted:try and visualize how extremely fun it must be to raid with a dude who has 6 times more experience than the level cap and cares so much about getting even more completely useless xp that he deletes people off his friends list if they don't do things on his schedule I bet this guy gets real mad when you go with the recommended Pokes in a 20 person raid. Like real mad. edit: lol https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/9kcd4q/the_reason_people_use_aggron_in_raids_isnt/ omnibobb fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Oct 1, 2018 |

I'm guessing it's similar to Mewtwo EX catch rate, aka easy, rather than niantic's 3% Base Rate Bullshit for 5* raids Watching a legendary break out of 14 curves in a row or whatever is not compelling gameplay, so...good.

Today I joined 50+ people standing around in a cold drizzle, surrounding a statue of Ghandi, all to catch a fake monster in a dumb phone game.

I completed my field research tasks and got the chance to catch an Entei. Spent almost all my pokéballs trying to catch it, but now I have a huge firey dog thing as my buddy, yay!

Btw, Deoxys isn't actually a legendary, but is classified as mythical (like Mew and Celebi), that means it can't be traded or ground into candy.

If you didn’t get Mewtwo during the event, are you totally SOL or is there a chance it will return someday?

Comrade Koba posted:If you didn’t get Mewtwo during the event, are you totally SOL or is there a chance it will return someday? My understanding is Mewtwo is still the L5 raid for another two weeks or so. After that he’ll probably rotate in again eventually like other raid bosses have in the past.

So just to be sure I'm not missing something, Deoxys is as inconvenient to raid as Mewtwo used to be, with the added perk of not actually being any good?

AweStriker posted:Deoxys seems disappointingly weak. Deoxys is another victim of PoGo's stat/battle system. Its Normal (and Attack form even more-so) are speedy glass cannons meant to do high damage before the opponent can counterattack. In the mainline games Deoxys can rely on its speed, other team members, or defensive moves to stay alive as long as possible. PoGo has none of these features, so Deoxys gets to be a Mewtwo with a fraction of the survivability.

I kinda wish Speed was implemented in the game, like higher Speed = faster attack animations or something. Maybe they'll give the battle system an overhaul someday, but right now it's extremely unlikely.

Maybe this Deoxys stat business will be the thing that convinces Niantic to stop counting their gigantic piles of money and fix the stat system

The most you can say is that Defense form will be more of a pain in the rear end to raid. Really, Deoxys's entire gimmick is ruined in Go.

dwarf74 posted:I mean, with Mewtwo you weren't just getting a trophy - you were getting a top-tier raider and gym-ransacker. This is a trophy. I'll go out of my way to get one - heck, one of each form - but it's just not as exciting. Pretty much. I'll still do them because it's fun to see people I know at raids and I might as well go get a near-guaranteed raid win that takes less than 1 minute and some rare candies and stuff. To add onto the anecdote pile, just caught one, extremely easy to do, we had a 100% catch rate among all the raiders, one person got a 96IV. Successful all around. I don't know what perfect IV is but i think it's 1560-something. the high one for us was 1558.

Just got kicked out of the app with a notice that there was a new mandatory version. Updated, booted it back up, new version has updated Terms of Service, which is interesting.
