We have rules for a reason. Proper spelling and interpunction especially, as they can mess up the entire sense of your post. I don't think we want people typing like retarded apes because they're 'just having fun'.
On-topic: Darn it, I just had a 2200+ Ho-Oh run away from me. I don't know exactly what a perfect one looks like, but I'm assuming this was very high T__T
ok sry. Does anyone know what CP is a 100% ho oh?
2222 is perfect for Ho-oh as I know someone that achieved that. I was 3 for 5 in our group raids today for Ho-oh so a better one would certainly be desireable. Am so glad this was not an ex raid boss.
Man how are you guys catching that bastard? Excellent throws are impossible...
Howd u capture him? Teach me lol
What works for me is spinning the ball as if you're about to throw a curve ball. But then instead of throwing to the side, throw straight through the middle. Almost as if you're directly aiming for the bulls eye. The ball has such little travel time that it won't spin to the side. But because your ball spins, it does count as a curve ball.
Pain in the butt compared to the previous legendaries indeed.

Man why did they have to fuck it up so bad again. I can’t get used to this new technique ....
Well, I don't see it as a 'fuck up'. More as a change of mechanics, which is logical since it's a different Pokémon. But Ho-Oh is indeed a tad too close to the screen imo.
Just try my technique in combination with this guaranteed Excellent Throw technique and you'll have it in no time.

Thank you bro. Just wish they would’ve kept it like Lugia for instance
Even though the contents of the raids are fun, it's almost becoming a boring routine. All my raids today were like this: Go to nearby gym for Ho-Oh raid. See all the regular players in town. Everyone says hi to each other then stare at their phones. Finish the raid, and onto the next one!
It feels surreal that we keep doing this. The game brings people out and then it's the most shallow social experience I can imagine.

Yeh and most of the players dont know jack shit about Pokemon either. So vconnecting with them on that level is limited right?
Good news for AR and indirectly for Pokémon Go:

Yea same here.
By the way, how many 100% IV Pokemon do you have?
By the way, how many 100% IV Pokemon do you have?
The most important ones I have are: 1x Tyranitar, 2x Dragonite, 1x Charizard, 2x Vaporeon, 1x Jolteon. Some other ones I can name from the top of my head are Shuckle, Parasect, Rapidash, Ditto (pretty psyched on that) and Seadra. And probably some other shitmons I threw away whilst not caring like Pidgey, Rattata, Sentret, Hoot, etc. Couldn't care less about a Rattata with perfect IVs, it will never be useful.
Still thinking whether I'm going to do something with that Ditto. Maybe just for lulz.

That's a lot indeed, wow. I'd say Omastar, Lapras and Blastoise are kind of useful. Houndoom too, against Mewtwo.
I got my perfect Larvitar from an egg. But I've seen a lot of people getting very good T-Tars from raids. As far as I'm concerned the IV distribution of raid bosses differentiate between 10 - 15 points randomly per stat. Hence, you're having a bigger change to get a good Pokémon if you manage to capture the raid boss :)

In what world is Omastar a useful poke?
It's very good against Fire-type Pokémon. And since Moltres, Entei and Ho-Oh have been out as raid bosses lately, my Omastar came in really handy. It has a x4 Fire-type resistance and it's essentially a better Kabutops.
It's also pretty good in the main games since it got access to Shell Smash :)
