Won’t be able to raid shadow ho-oh because I live in Nebraska and it’s too rural. Along with it being under 20 degrees right now it makes it impossible to enjoy
I don't think i can motivate my friends to play for this event. It's too cold for them and they stopped playing. I'm able to do those raids alone as i have 2 acc with mega tyranitar(I just revive them over and over) and i already did solo(i guess duo) shadow ho-oh with 100+ sec left. But the problem is that each raid uses 4 purified gems and gives you little after doing raid. So i will be able to do 3-4 at max alone before i run out of gems(unless they give players free gems I hope so) with won't be a problem to find raids as i have gym within home reach.
Dope vid Count, not gonna hold you, Shadow Ho-oh raid day with them selling a ticket along with NOT being able to remote them is hella contumelious, respectfully
Same. We will not forget what Niantic skipped over for the next Gen. (And Shadow legendaries are implausible to take on in my rural community; gotta get what I want from Giovanni directly)
While shiny shadow Ho-Oh sounds great I'm thinking it's not going to be possible. Depends how many people you need. My local community is not active at all any more 😢
I've 3 manned shadow ho oh raids in the past easily. Just need the correct pokemon with the correct moves powered up. cant noob style it and used recommended pokemon.
2 mega tyranitars and ho-oh will be wiped of existance. I did duo it(with my alt) with 100+sec left. I used lvl51 mega tyranitar hundo on my main and lvl 43 98% on my alt. Each of them had best movements. But if u don't have this just use good rock types you should be fine with 3 people(don't forget to have purifed gems I'm sure niantic will give some gems for free)and remember to use rock type mega evolution, 30% atack boost to everyone at raid is very helpfull.
I'm looking forward to clearing Frustration off a few Shadow Pokemon for PVP. We'll see what the weather is doing on the 19th if we want to go out for those raids. 12K eggs for a new Pokemon is a bummer. But I guess Team Rocket will need to get defeated to gather up some red eggs.
I am looking forward for this event! I found fashion week a bit meh, not very into most costume event but shadow palkia and raid day Ho-oh it’s a yes!!
I will compare it to shadow salamance for you. Shadow Salamance(best non-mega dragon type) is little better than Shadow Palkia. On lvl 50 Shadow Salamance DPS(Damage per sec) is 23.485 and Shadow Palkia DPS is 22.867 but Shadow Salamance TDO(Total damage overtime) is 649.1 and Shadow Palkia TDO is 701.5 meaning that Shadow Salamance deals more damage while Shadow Palkia surviaves longer but the difference isn't that much and you want more DPS most of the times. Source: GamePress Comprehensive DPS/TDO Spreadsheet. And getting Salamance candy is easier to obtain than Palkia candy. So short answer: No, it's not worth it. Save it for Shadow Rayquaza. It will be much better than those 2 and it will be also best flying type if you unlock 2nd move.
Shadow Ho Oh is a bummer. I will at least use my free passes. only because I'm close to enough candy XL for another level 50 ho oh. I was hoping for something new. Shadow palkia is cool.
To be honest this fashion week and the takeover event is da bomb in the best way cause of everything u said. Part 1 is pretty good and overall this takeover event is miles ahead of it by such a huge margin. I do have a few gripes with both those parts though. I love that the fashion week event is 10 days long. Here comes the gripes. One the new mon is in 12k eggs ugh honestly I’m not surprised by Niantic or the Pokémon company one bit. Second I have mixed feelings about the Shadow Ho-oh raid day I love that it is happening but not being able to remote raid it along with the cold weather in Canada and with not much of a community or a lack there of I’m gonna skip it. My fav Gen 4 legendary Pokémon is Palkia so the fact that they are making it shadow that makes it so much better in my opinion. I agree some people find it underwhelming and i think that is okay I understand that person however I disagree with that person whole heartedly. By no means is this epic but it’s awesome to me nonetheless. Part 1 very good. Part 2 sounds awesome. The raid day sounds so good while I hope Niantic changes their minds and make it remote-able I highly doubt it I’m gonna guess about 10 maybe 20 people. The less people and if I had to guess possibly 5. With Rock type Pokemon. The photo bomb of the Croagunk with a hat and the fact that it evolves is gonna be a slice of cake because it’s a piece of cake to take a photo and him to photo bomb. The shadow raids are gonna be very good. Level 1 that is. Level 3 no thanks. Thanks for this Count. If I have 8 people maybe 10 people I’ll try maybe 7 raids of this awesome shadow legendary raid boss but that is a huge if. One more gripe i don’t like that the new costumed mon is in raids and in field research. Field research is one thing and I’m okay with that but the fact that it’s in raids is so bad however it’s in one star raids so I can forgive them for it cause it’s the only thing I’m gonna go for including the costumed Dragonite. I happen to like the new costume of Minccino. The worst costume Pokemon in my opinion is the slakoth with a visor. It’s so lazy and unnecessary. Slaking is even worse. Vigroth is okay though. Anybody who is a fan of Slakoth is gonna love it however that person is not me.
For dragon types attacker I don't recomed you powering up(beyond lvl 40) any of them(there are a lot better dragon attackers). But if you want for collection power up shniy Palkia.
Didn’t we have shadow ho oh in raids months ago like can we get a new shadow or at least the apex ho-oh and I wish they stop with the 2 to 5 bs just gonna miss them all cause of work love the rocket events but wish we can skip the reward animation after beating them
Yeah its unfortunate that the new Pokémon is locked behind eggs yet again. But all signs seem to indicate it will be in the Egg pool after the event. So there's no rush to get it at least.
I'm stuck at work for Shadow Ho-Oh Raid Day. Why only 3 hours on one day? Niantic are jackasses for crap like this. But Shadow Palkia is great! My favorite Legendary in Shadow form will be nice.😊
I usually like your takes on this stuff, but these pokemon aren't that great especially long term and ho oh. Black and white kyurem will be better right away or the same with no extra stardust. Palkia I have limited xls so will use on the origin or even wait for that shadow. Plus Rayquaza shadow and other new pokemon, plus you usually only need like 3-6 and when you have megas as well. It's just a side grade if you really want it. Ho oh is way outclassed plus all the extra dust and xls, plus it's not sacred fire+
It would make sense if they realesed aplex shadow lugia/ho-oh in elite shadow raids but they would need to rework entire elite raid system(mainly give more rewards)
When Shadow Pokémon first came out, you could trade them. However, there was a bug with Lucky Shadow Pokémon where you could potentially get even higher than perfect IVs when purifying them. So they disabled trading Shadow Pokémon and they never brought it back.
@@CountJinsulaOfficial thanks, Count. I’ve been playing since day one and I didn’t know that I had ever had the opportunity to trade shadows. I don’t play the shadow game very enthusiastically because, without trading, it seems like a dead end aspect of game play. I have some multiple shadow/shinies. I’d love to be able to trade some of them away for something I’m more interested in
@@brianob1 mew & Ray have nothing to do with the "creation trio" in which my original reply was about. Second, if u want a shadow mew, good luck burning multiple tms for the moveset u want.
I am looking forward to the Team Rocket Go event. This will be the first one I will be involved with. I was wondering how shadow pokemon learned a new charged TM instead of frustration.
During the event you will be able to TM frustration off any of your shadow Pokemon. You can also TM shadow ho-oh to get it's *elite* move sacred fire without having to use an elite TM so do not forget to TM the best one you catch at the very least.

Contumelious 😂 I see you have that thesaurus hard at work again 😂
@ yet you go out your way to be acknowledged, kinda weird but go off
Just go to the city and make new friends.
@ I prefer my friends i made from the remote raid teams i was on , thank you for sharing your experience
Tre, were u doing in person raids back in the day beforehand? Just curious & I do respect your balls to wall convictions on remote raids.
I don’t like that the new mon is lock behind 12km eggs
I'm still holding my super rocket radars for shadow Rayquaza
Same. We will not forget what Niantic skipped over for the next Gen. (And Shadow legendaries are implausible to take on in my rural community; gotta get what I want from Giovanni directly)
Dope video Count 👌
Happy early birthday! Mine is the 14th.
Happy early birthday to you too!
Happy early birthday fellow Capricorn... 16th for me.
Damn... A single shadow palkia. With how my luck sucks, the IVs are gonna suck

I've 3 manned shadow ho oh raids in the past easily. Just need the correct pokemon with the correct moves powered up. cant noob style it and used recommended pokemon.
Rock types will be the way. 2x super effective is hard to ignore.
2 mega tyranitars and ho-oh will be wiped of existance. I did duo it(with my alt) with 100+sec left. I used lvl51 mega tyranitar hundo on my main and lvl 43 98% on my alt.

I will definitely try to Charge TM to get Sacred Fire for that Shadow Ho-Oh raid day. I must remember!

What are the new lineups for the rocket leaders?
I don't think they revaled it yet.
I am looking forward for this event! I found fashion week a bit meh, not very into most costume event but shadow palkia and raid day Ho-oh it’s a yes!!
Should I use my rocket redars? Is shadow palkia worth it ?(I hv3 researchs saved )
I read your questions in my trainer club voice 😅. Honestly, I'd just burn 1 because it's a solid dragon attacker.

Shadow Ho-Oh and Shadow Palkia are super underwhelming honestly.
Happy Early Birthday!
Be better if you can remote them, they need to get with the times.
Shadow Ho Oh is a bummer. I will at least use my free passes. only because I'm close to enough candy XL for another level 50 ho oh. I was hoping for something new. Shadow palkia is cool.
but shiny chance is increased, so you have high chance for purified shundo.

I just got a shiny Palkia with 96% IVs. Not sure if I should max that one, or the shadow Palkia...

Nice! I have been saving 12 km eggs. I have 12 of them.
You need to collect 12km eggs from tge start of event. Your eggs now wont have the new pokemon in

Hello fellow Capricorn.
The 12k thing is going to tick me off for the new mon... but the Shadow Ho-oh is going to be absolute FIRE (pun intended)

I skip this rocket event and shadow raid day. Only wait february and unova for black kyurem
You’re crazy this event is awesome

Cant wait to hatch all the Vullabys and Pawniards from the 12km eggs 🫠
That hello kitty shirt took me out

@@gellyzer0949 it would be to op. And Shadow Pokemon are for more hardcore and expirienced players.

Shouldnt we have giratina before palkia
If they were to go by pokedex number order in regards to their respective trio, no. Dialga should have been first.
@bigmel26 ah ok fair enough
@@bigmel26what about mew or Rayquaza, they have to do it out of order due to too much power, otherwise palkia shadow would not be pursued

If you have an abundance of charged TM no harm in trying.
I've got a score to settle with ho-oh - hopefully I'm free for it
Got to catch them all . Can't wait to catch a shiny or shundo Oh-oh
Boring choice no rayquaza in Giovanni or raid. Rocket grunts bad pokemon
