Plus, the result that you posted at 9:48 is from dividing 300 by 315, which which will give the percentage difference between the totals if subtracted from 100%, but not the percentage increase.

    Have you ever made a video about catch rates comparing the differences between:

    •Nice, great, and excellent throws
    •Straight and curve balls
    How much do these matter and do they make much of a difference?

      He talked about catch rates in his recent Genesect throw guide. ua-cam.com/video/ckNpq6BhOZM/v-deo.html&t=544 It doesn't mention pokeball types since everyone uses the same ball in raids, but great balls are 1.5 times more effective than regular pokeballs and ultra balls are 2 times more effective than regular pokeball.s

    • @andrewnieves4453
      @andrewnieves4453 4 роки тому

      In most of his excellent throw tutorials he breaks down rates for different throw types with a golden without and etc(at least the first few raid bosses that came out). Excellent curveball with a golden razz gives about a 10%ish vs the .1% we have at base if i remember right.

  • @landomt8138
    @landomt8138 4 роки тому +7

    Lyon forgot to mention breakpoints for attacking Pokémon. I can’t explain it super well but if you look up breakpoint explanation on game press it gives a detailed rundown. Basically it is important to have as high of an attack iv as possible because that means you don’t need to level up the Pokémon as much since it will do the same amount of damage for a certain amount of levels.

      What you are talking about is PVP only, and not pertaining to just shadow but all pokemon, having 0 to 5 attack and max hp defense allows a pokemon to tank enemy hits but also allows for you to have a higher potential for more charge attacks

    • @AJ42069
      @AJ42069 3 роки тому

      the stats go up 1 level, so whatever the difference between 39 and 40 was, thats about what you are getting from best buddy. Also keep in mind each power up is not a level, it is 0.5 of a level, so best buddy is essentially two power ups.

    It matter for pokemon with a base atk lower than 80. However you would not use that as an attacker anyway. But for reference, that’s when the 15atk normal starts to be better than the shadow. Not to count the fact the shadow bonus stacks on top of your ivs, so a 5 attack shadow is getting 20% of those 5 points.

    I think this video is a bit misleading since this only applies to PVE. Beware people, in PVP many NON-SHADOW Pokemon are actually BETTER than the Shadow versions!!! Don’t power up shadows willy nilly if you are into GBL unless you are SURE the shadow is better!! (Which often it’s not)

  • @vyvynylification
    @vyvynylification 2 роки тому

    People really need to understand better how little the impact of IV's are. Especially depending on ur usage. There's plenty of video's where 12 att iv pokemon beat identical raid bosses in the same time as a 100iv. Maybe 1 or 2 seconds difference on longer 5 star raids, which gets fully compensated by having 10 or more people in the raid. As for pvp, it seems pretty simple to me too: Get yourself good pvp iv's for ultra and great league (you really, really don't need top 10 ranked iv's. there's ppl in legend rank with what's considered terrible iv's). As for master league: Yeah, i'd advise anything from 96-100iv. Lucky? bet you I power that. I managed to powwer up my 88 iv lucky moltres and 88 iv lucky shiny swampert for the same cost as 1 regular swampert or 1 regular moltres. they're both 12 att IV but consistently give me the 'most damage dealt' award. I also have 2 shadow machamps. one goes 15-13-13 and one goes 15-13-12. IT has 1 lower HP iv yet the difference when i look at the number is 0. Aim for the best you can get and don't rush powering up if 1) you don't need it now 2) there's a good chance you'll find better. But don't feel bad powering up pokemon in their 80 iv's especially with 15 attack. So a 98 or 96 really is, OCD aside, identical to a 100 pretty much... As for shadow: a 13-13-13 is a TON stronger than your 15-15-15 regular for PvE, so that's a no brainer to power up if you need it. The question isn't "should I power up this 89 or 91 IV pokemon", but: "Do I power up the regular version or the shadow version" (assuming you can only do 1 right now). When a pokemon isn't a top attacker in it's class, like articuno or zapdos, don't bother powering up those and go for the shadow versions right away, they're obviously much better. And lastly: power up whatever the F you want, the game is still supposed to be for fun.

    (For raiding) my friends argument is that if the extra defense on a non shadow pokemon allows for 1 extra charged attack they think that means non shadow would be better, i already explained that the charge energy transfers over too the next mon when it dies from the raid mons charged attack. do they have a point or is shadow just strictly better for raiding?

  • @Kggarcia90
    @Kggarcia90 3 роки тому

    Comparing 6 shadows to 6 normals isn't fair. It does not tell you how a single shadow moltres affects your team. Shadows are powerful because you can put in slightly more damage in less time. If you keep compounding this over and over with each shadow of course it's going to be God teir.

    Hey Billy. I'm not disagreeing with what you've put in this video, shadows are superior in terms of DPS. But the Genesect example you used may be confusing, as Moltres has a double resistance to Genesect's bug-type attacks, whilst Reshiram has a single resistance. You may be misleading people into thinking shadow Moltres is equally as tanky as a Reshiram.
