After the Event.... What are your Top 12?
I have a fine addition... my highest IV (89%, 15A) Groudon, now level 30. How have your Top 12 changed?
Answers
No hate from me! Just straight-up covetousness. :)
As an aside, I try not to do duplicates either. If I have to have two of a species, I at least try for different useful move sets. Except in the case of Machamp. I have a few exact copies of those and make no apologies for it. Oh, and ZH/BS Snorlax. I had two of those and powered them both up because I don't think the world has enough annoyance. :)
I sort of agree with that principle in theory, but from a practical standpoint, having multiple powered up T-tars is more useful to me than having a powered up Ho-Oh. I wish my top 12 was more diverse, but I'm prioritizing usefulness at the moment.
The only recent change to my top 12 has been powering up another B/C T-tar to level 30, to bolster my chances at soloing C/SB Alakazam. A legacy DB/DP Dragonite was knocked out of the top 12. The Rhydon and the two Gyaradoses (both with DT/O) are basically relics from the old gym system, when CP mattered for holding gym spots (and it was necessary to have multiple hard counters to Dragonite).
Most of my stardust lately has been going to Machamps, Hariyamas, and the aforementioned T-tar.
Simulations says that the fastest you can kill a 4,5kCP Slaking is about 22 seconds though. And that's with eating a Play Rough to generate energy faster.
Not that I disagree with powering it up. Mine is going to be 4,1k when I evolve it and I see absolutely no point in giving it stardust even if it's now the #4 defender.
Substantial changes by level but not in the species or the order- The event has finally gave me enough dust to clear the million mark and keep it there. Fed 2 Ttar and 2 Dragonites from Level 38 to Level 40, maxed my 100 Raikou, 100 Gyarados, and pulled my 93 Zapdos to Level 38. 100 Blissey will be powered solely by gym berry candy or a miracle hatch.
Haven't really played much lately, so my top 12 hasn't changed, except for my 98% Groudon now leading the way from a couple of power ups I did a while ago. Been having a hard time getting candies for Groudon due to rare candy drought and Groudon constantly running away from me after catching this 98% Groudon, so it's been a slow process maxing it out. Still don't have a Blissey to this day, but I have a 10km egg currently incubating, so maybe I'll try to hatch that sometime this week and see if I get lucky.
