Gen 3 ghosts
so, assuming we see Gen 3 ghosts next week, are any of them going to be worth really going after? It doesn't look like it to me. But hey... seeing a silhouette on the screen will be good. So I'll certainly get some.

With the battle existing as is (tap-and-swipe, pokemon's value being based on moves from a limited pool along with a poor reflection of main series -> Go stats), they will not thrive.
However, it is worth noting that if a battle system were to change:
- Bannette and Sableye both get mega evolutions (introduced in gen 6). In the main series, Sableye's is very useful. I used to run it on one of my teams (it's ability, magic bounce, was unbelievably useful in the main series, but seeing as that abilities are not a 'thing' in Go...)
- Dusclops evolves to dusknoir, but again since pokemon go favors pokemon with high stamina, dusknoir probably will not do much better.
