Lowest CP Legendary ever - Registeel

I was surprised when the Registeel I encounter with a CP of 12xx. Check on the Max CP, only 2261, which is so low, even lower than Golduck. I think this is one of the most useless legendary thus far, even worse than Suicune. Just my 2cent.

Still too over powered to put in gyms! Niantic logic.

Honestly, with the current gym system they really don't need to exclude legendaries on defense. Maybe cap it at like one or two if they absolutely have to limit it. The only thing legendaries would do is ward off casual players from attacking which any fully motivated gym with Pokemon over 3k CP already do.

It was already difficult to find people for a second Registeel Raid. It is sad.

First time I prefer to spend my pass on a tier 2 over a tier 5. 20 ralts candies, Yay!!

Yes, no brainer. Double candy on Kirlia >>> double candy on Registeel. Huge win doing the lower tier raid. I see a lot of Kirlia raids in my future, except for a three hour window where I hit Zappy hard.

I think they did that to off set how bad registeel is, I mean with regice the rewards for beating it were worth it, and regice is usable as an ice attacker against double ice weak pokemon because its high bulk, but with registeel, the rewards arent worth it because its such a bad pokemon

im so glad houndoom's back

Really hoping that I can just get one before the hype dies.

I got one, a 10/11/11 example. That's good enough for me, but I'll keep raiding them for the rare candies.

I haven't done a legendary in 2 months other than Articuno. It's not worth the extra time to organize. I don't have a Latias or Regice or Registeel. Oh well.

I just go out for them because of dex completion, get one and never have to raid it again, plus, it may be required to have all three to battle Regigigas, which is going to be very strong

Registeel's averaged stats between the other two Regis don't translate well into PoGo's conversion formula at all. I can see why they added more exciting raid bosses in the rest of the tiers - legendary raids are likely going to slow to a crawl this month.

its been a bad run recently.

latios, latias, regice, registeel. and upcoming regirock.
they are all junk and no reason to even try to get a group together after you've done it one time for the 'dex. our raid crew has pretty much dissolved over the last 2-3 months because nobody wants to do Legendary raids because they are so useless.

I expect Gen 4 to experience the same stagnation if they roll out the top legendaries before anything else. If we get Cresselia either immediately before or immediately following the lake trio that will likely be another 4 months of sub par T5 raids. Everyone's Tyranitars/Gengars/SB Mewtwos will definitely have their work cut out for them.

The first 3 legendaries will probably be Dialga Palkia and Giratina because they are the mascot legendaries of the Gen 4 games

I ave a feeling they'd space cress and the lake trio out, if the go by dex order its the lake trio, dialga, palkia,heatran, Regigigas, giratina (which form remans to be sean), cresselia, phione, manaphy, darkrai, shaymin, arceus.

Rotom's not a legendary so its ambiguous as to what will happen with it

The last 5 of those are mythical who may never see any raid action. Which I just realized would actually be disappointing in Arceus's case. With it having potential to be any type as well as having a signature attack to reflect that there's a lot of fun ideas they could implement off that.

They could have staggered the Regis in between the other legends instead of clumping all the good and all the bad together. Hope they do something like that with the lake trio since they are so similar.

I wouldn't even say worse. The DB/DC moveset is fast and convenient for sweeping gyms, and Latios doesn't have the double weakness to ice. I'm even thinking about powering up a psychic one to go with my DB/DC. The bosses after Latios have been underwhelming, though.

Latios is my number one gym attacker. Higher stats and quicker moves than Dragonite? Yes please.

Not gonna say I use Latios a lot, have a 96% at 30 and caught two good boosted ones, then a level 20 w/ 14a 98%—waiting to see what else to do with it...but obviously Latios mops Salamence in a gym battle, can beat Dragonite, too. At some point it’ll be pretty valuable in a general setting (potentially PvP)...people don’t often include ice attackers in battle parties

Registeel kinda just got the short end of the stick compared to the other Regis with its averaged stats. It really sucks. Glad i got one for the dex already.

And yet, despite the fact that everyone was calling this out MONTHS before Registeels release, Niantic left it completely untouched. Right now, it's just a worse Steelix, and that just isn't right.

I know but I am so over Regice I have 5 and I am so tired of them and they are probably weaker than all the registeel. The Regis are all crap overrall
