A lot of explaination changes

With PvP and all the new pokemon that are suddenly becoming great (like Flygon), FP meganium, Blastoise with HC, etc) are we going to see changed to the rating explaination or some sort of PvP rating explaination separate from the raid/gym explaination?
Its great to see all those trapinch and feebas we hatched are finally going to pay off, and those of us that raided the regis and giratina got some great PvP pokemon without knowing.

I'm not expecting this to happen any time soon if such a thing will happen as theres been a lot of new additions to the game, and the game press staff likely have a lot more things on their priority list.

I assume so, but we should be patient. We all are trying to digest this information as a community, and we still don't have the full picture. The great work done by people here and over at the Silph road still isn't the complete picture. We don't have a good way of comparing tankiness and damage output, and none of the analysis I've seen includes the effects of the increased weakness/resistances, or the overall effects of W/R.

So the picture is changing daily, if not hourly, and to ask the people here to put out modified guides as things change is a huge ask. Let them sort things out, get to the bottom of all the changes, and then put out their recommendations. It's like any scientific endeavor - peer review and careful work are critical.

Personally, I'm thinking that the semi-tanks, not Blissey, but Lapras, Milotic, the Regis, etc., will be the ones that shine in PvP, but we'll have to see. Much math to do before we know what's best.

Thats what I said, a lot has changed and happened so fast, its probably going to be a while before anything gets sorted out well. I dont expect any sort of guides or alterations for a good while because of how extensive some of these thing will be.

Love tht lapras and molitic are good, got a few 96% fish and ~700 condy just having waited for milotic to be good
