Lucky dex progress

I just scrolled through my Pokédex and my lucky dex is at 268. A casual look bc I included ones I haven’t evolved bc I have 100% lucky ralts, 100% lucky chimchar, 100% lucky Torchic, etc. Anyone else “trying” this impossible mission? What dumb/easy ones are you inexplicably missing...some for me: no lucky Murkrow, no lucky Weedle, no lucky Sentret, no lucky Numel, no male nidoran, no pinsir, no diglett, no sandshrew, no whismur, no illumise, etc***right now for a limited time you only need to be 50% totally bored

No one cares about your lucky Dex or your half assed brag post

A rough count is showing me there have been less than 15 total comments on the board for threads started today. However, it is a somewhat topical thread bc this is mostly a lucky Pokémon event bc the extra spawns are pretty much trash. After a very slow lucky start I’ve gotten several more today, but worse case it does generate candy if you have some starters to trade, 1500 candy better than 1000.

Since I'm already half-bragging today, I actually (for no good reason) played a lot this weekend (1000ish catches in 3.5 days)...if I didn't get a few luckies (none hugely relevant) then this would be the absolute only thing I would keep. The Dratini spawns were just putting some lip gloss on a pig, IMO.

Hehe! Fair point.

However, I'm still gonna pointless brag too.

My Gen 1 and Gen 2 lucky dex is complete, including legendaries.

Gen 3 - nearly complete, just need a few legendaries that are proving evasive (2 Regis, Latios, Kyogre, Groudon and Rayquaza).

Gen 4 - everything up to the latest release batch, apart from Spiritomb and the babies (done very well getting all G4 legendaries released so far).

Ah yes... you're not alone...
myself & a few local players are actively catching pokemon (not yet lucky) from each other's dex. Keeping them for trading gets hard coz storage is limited, but it's another challenge in between shiny hunting/fully completing the dex...
Regionals & legendaries are hardest & the baby forms coz they need to be hatched..

My current dex is at 433 (missing some legendaries/regionals/sinnoh evolves)
My list of pokémon I need for completing lucky dex is about 120 (most of these are base forms coz I'll evolve where req. to complete)
Kanto = 28
Johto = 36
Hoenn = 40
Sinnoh = 16

How has you luck been with Legendaries? For me it has been terrible, every legendary I trade (usually for another Legendary, I do so nearly every day) goes down in CP / IV. Had only one lucky legendary and that was moderate IV as it was before they boosted the Lucky IVs to be 12/12/12 minium. Am I alone in such wretched legendary luck? My overall lucky rate is probably OK, 144 out of 2252 trades thus 6.4%. Had a good luck streak when the Chinese New year started but this Lucky Weekend has ironically been very poor,

Mixed bag of Lucky Legendaries:
Mewtwo ShB 12a/14/12
Mewtwo Ice Beam 14a/12/15
Regice 12a/12/13
Regice 12a/15/13
Suicune 13a/12/13
Articuno 12a/13/13
Zapdos 13a/15/13
Giratina 15a/13/15
Giratina 14a/14/12
Moltres 14a/12/14
Heatran boosted 15a/12/13
Heatran boosted 15a/15/13.

Notable/spectacular legendary trades that weren't lucky but useful: Groudon 15a/14/15 (maxed it). Level 30 Shadowball Mewtwo went 14a/14/10 (now 3800). Then Palkia got an unlucky 15a/15/15 (maxing it, now at 34). Only two legendary luckies I've touched are the two Mewtwo now at 3975 and 3875.

When only considering lucky attack:
15: 3/12
14: 3/12
13: 2/12
12: 4/12

Lucky or not, that Palkia is nice. How much use do you expect to get out of it once Palkia raids are over?

Not too much, but it keeps motivated to try to conjure up more Palkia raids for candy. I don't PvP competitively, so saving resourses in that sense. I will use it for Latios and Latias return visits.

Palkia is also extraordinary vs ancient power Giratina A and O, not super huge since I don’t PvP but I aim to get close as possible beating to all raid bosses with my big 40 and my now approaching 40 account. My primary raid area is residential and lacking big interstates

So 12 lucky legendaries (a lot more than me) out of approximately how many legendary trades? Do you usually trade a legendary for a legendary or mix with standard mons? I am sitting on nearly a dozen shadowball Mewtwos and hoping for a lucky streak or an event which provides a high chance of luckies ... this last weekend did NOT do so for me.
