In my town, we are usually only 15-30 people meeting up on Wednesdays at raid hour, depending on the raid boss and the weather. Today we started out at 10 am with at least four groups with around 20 raiders each and, after we had split up in mostly team-based groups, we met plenty other groups throughout the day just out playing together in the fantastic weather. I never thought I'd see this many people out playing in my town again. It's been years, before I started playing, so I'm pleasantly surprised with the results of Niantic's recent decisions. Managed to do 22 raids with a few decent catches, the best being a 13/13/15. Only one very sad shiny though. Sadly I won't be able to raid much tomorrow though but I hope to do a couple raids in the morning, gotta have that shashundo!
I know that the Niantic choice of local raid has been controversial. However, I have never seen so many groups of people in my city, running, shouting and chatting TOGETHER to take down this crazy legendary. I for one agree to this change… at least 60% agree
@@seen72 i missed one because i had to swap out moves and missed out on a raid but caught 2. I was alone tho so it was a bit hard driving around and figuring out where there was a raid i could join. I had so much trouble finding groups still tho😭. I’ll try tmr and hopefully have more luck
I pity everyone who isn’t in New york. I went to the city this morning and every single shadow mewtwo raid had a constant full 20 stack at all times. Got 6 shadow mewtwos and will be going for the shiny tomorrow
was such an exciting first day of Mewtwo raids for me, I carpooled 6 people around to do raids it was epic. I ended the day with having done 22 Mewtwo raids!!!
Regardless of the recent changes that force players hands, i must say today was the most fun ive had playing since johto tour. Irl events are the way, as long as youre safe about it. Met a lot of new people today & it was excellent
Yay i can't do shadow mewtwo raids thanks a lot niantic now i have to sit and watch them go and youtubers catch them.Also Mewtwo is my favorite legendary too.
I hate it not having people that actually plays the game in-person around. At some point we gathered 5/6 people on a raid but people left before starting the raid...
Hey Brandon, as i was just watching this video I battled a Team Leader Cliff and found my first ever Shadow Shiny it was a Shadow Shiny Larvitar with 15 13 13 ivs. I was wondering if I should purify it into a shundo or keep it shadow and make it Tyranitar? Please give me your thoughts on this.
Not really an option until bis Mega comes out - save it until then Or you Make a Budget Decision - do you have the candy for leveling up as a Shadow? But I would keep it as a Shadow - more valuable, Stronger and and with high IVs you can just keep Leveling until you run out of Candy or its Lvl 50
Meanwhile I live in a rural area and have been driving to Mewtwo raids all day and cannot find more than 3 people at any of them making it impossible to do this. 😔
About the math btw, I'm pretty sure the chance of getting a Hundo after purifying is 1/(1000-26), which isn't 1/37. If it was 1/37 it would be hella cracked, but that's 1000/27 which isn't the same as just taking out the 26 possibilities (no need purify if Hundo already). Either way the video's a banger, keep releasing BT!!!!!
You can definitely duo shadow Mewtwo with good enough counters, and most importantly counters adapted to the moveset. I have been able to do it against Psycho cut/Ice beam, which is not quite the easiest, but not irrationally hard either. The main difficulty resides in timing your gems right so that two players make it up to 8 quick enough. We actually had to try a second time because we had poor timing using our gems at first
Damn I’ve tried to get one for all of event but whenever there is 6+ people attacking one by the time I get there I sit in the lobby by myself and no one joins me and my highest Pokémon is like 3999 slacking so no chance doing it as a duo or trio any tips??
Something to note is that there are raid hours for Mewtwo; one at 5pm, another at 7pm. At least, that happened on Saturday. Not sure if the same would occur on Sunday.
We had raids pop up throughout the day in my town, though we had to walk quite a bit to get to them. Didn't notice any particular rise in numbers at those times, but I suppose that could be coincidental.
@@puyol8700 My bad. I'm in Taipei now, and those hours only applies to the sponsored gyms Family Mart. Where I'm visiting, those places are littered all over.
At least you have one that is my favorite Pokémon and I have been trying to get it every time it came out and I could never get it I was so sad that I could no get it😢
started playing last december. Heartbroken they didn't allow remote passes. 4 gyms within a 30 min radius of me and I tried them all, max we could get was 3 people. Really wanted a mewtwo
I remember when shadows first came out and you were able to trade shadow pokemon. I traded my friend a shadow snorlax and it came out as lucky! Unfortunately she passed away and I have no idea what happened to that one
How to rejoin battle I can't do pls tell as just when my all Pokemon faints it tells your all Pokemon are fainted and when I rejoin that raid Pokemon comes with full health not the health which I left it to pls help 😢
I got a shiny shadow mewtwo on my 5th and final raid of the day, bad IVs, but whatever, it’s rad. I have enough to field a whole team now, so that’s awesome. One of the random folks out there had just gotten out of the hospital after a transplant, couldn’t catch him on an earlier raid, so I gave him some tips and he caught it, yelled so loud all the people around thought he caught a shiny 😂
While i am glad people are able to get so many raid in, they really make you have to pretty much spend the whole day or several hours just driving around or walking around to gyms for the hope of running into a gym that even had a shadow mewtwo to fight. Really makes it hard for people with families in which not all of their family members play to do this since you cant just take that much time out to just drive around or walk around.

When you use the purified gems, you have to wait before attacking the boss, otherwise the gem will not be used, just stop taping on the screen.
To be more precise, only charge moves cancel the gem animation
