I want to seek everyone's opinion. Say you obtained 4 TMs (say 2 fast and 2 charged). What would you personally prioritise to change (e.g. D9 HB to OR / T9 IT to Bi) and why?

QUOTE(thirty6whoisit @ Jun 30 2017, 02:32 PM) Yeah man... fought 6, caught 4. all < 86% iv.... going to trash them soon. Happened to me before. 17 players in lounge but 4 battled. I think theyre spoofing groups that join private raid group to get more drops and to avoid freeloaders going in with blisseys and snorlaxesVery random... all RNG dependent. i think i have done 9 raids so far. 1 level 2, 1 level 3, 7 level 4 (1 charizard, the rest ttar). The first 6, i didn't receive a single TM (fast & charged). But the last 3 received 6 (coincidently, all were Ttar) Similarly, the last 2 raids, not a single golden razz. Have you hit > 30 raids ald? LOL.... sniper on the roof i've noticed an increasingly alarming trend. if you enter the lobby and wait, say there around 8 players, you happily select mon and get ready for battle. When you enter gym, almost half will pull out. All waiting for more than 10 players to battle. Today battled a ttar, from 8 dropped to 4 then before start drop to 2. I pulled out and re-entered with 12 players - freakin seeing 2 gyarados in there. But quite happy that i saw another 2 machamps, 1 heracross, 2 vapes , 2 D9s simultaneously battling together. On another note, they should seriously fix the lag when choosing mons. If you enter with < 50 secs, impossible to select all 6, especially in covered places. |

Btw... not only TM drop rates are falling, Niantic just made it more difficult to catch some raid boss. Changes in base capture rate 12.5% to 10%: Alakazam, Machamp 20% to 5%: Rhydon, Lapras, Snorlax 30% to 20%: Elecatbuzz, Magmar 15% to 12.5%: Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon |

Or try getting that DB / OR D9? As for the drop in base capture rates, it basically means here in KV everyone will soon say bye2 to any raids besides ttar. Btw, what is the base capture rate for T9 raid boss - 10%? |

Bear in mind you won't necessarily get the moves you wanted. It's still RNG. I recall it Ttar was 5% |

Would you change a legacy moveset Machamp and try to get Co / CC or DP for e.g.? Or try getting that DB / OR D9? As for the drop in base capture rates, it basically means here in KV everyone will soon say bye2 to any raids besides ttar. Btw, what is the base capture rate for T9 raid boss - 10%? the TM should be reserved for high CP ttar or d9 or who knows one day other legendary |

QUOTE(thirty6whoisit @ Jun 30 2017, 12:23 PM) Against Snorlax not advisable to use vaporeon in raid. You can use for fun to battle snorlax in gym... but not raid. I only have a d9 cp3107(steel wing,OR) and tyranitar cp 2120 (Iron Tail & Fire Blast) that is good against snorlax..any other pokemon that has high dps? eg:rhydon?Better use Ttar, D9, Machamp .. these 3 have high DPS and Machamp is also SE against snorlax. The other fighting type are taufu... cannot use to raid (maybe Poliwrath if desperate, but i wouldn't risk it).... LOL. |

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Jun 30 2017, 12:00 PM) Sorry bro but that's bad advice. I only have a d9 cp3107(steel wing,OR) and tyranitar cp 2120 (Iron Tail & Fire Blast) that is good against snorlax..any other pokemon that has high dps? eg:rhydon?Vaporeon's water gun was nerfed thats why its rubbish now in the meta Now its really like water pistol doing only 14dps. In comparison.. Tyranitar's Bite does 20dps and Dragonite's Dragon Tail does almost 23dps. That's why now, even against fire types.... rock/ground types are preferred over Vaporeon. Against Snorlax, Tyranitar is the best choice not just bcos attack and tankiness but also cos Lick only does 0.7 damage and it resist Zen Headbutt (half damage) My anti-snorlax line up is to place Tyranitars upfront, followed by D/Or Dragonites and last slot or 2 with Machamps since while they do a lot of damage, they are squishy ie waste potion) [attachmentid=8931424] |

Rhydon is bulky but attack wise is just so so.Depends on where u live and the number of active players, one way to go about things is to stepping stones for a stronger squad. Machamps are relatively easy to take down in a group, use physic types like exeggutor to fight it and get TM's and candies. You can then use the machamps, vaporeons and ur steel wing dragonite to raid tyranitars which will be useful for upcoming legendaries |

Another raid of Lvl 4 Rhydon, raid won but after finished 10 balls that bugger ran away! |
