Hi Avery!

Thank you so much. Hmmm... I have no idea how I did that but I will look around and see if I can change it because there are others that I would consider my favorite if I had to choose. Does it mean anything specific if a Pokemon is marked as your favorite?

:)

Yeah, right now you should see an outlined star on the top right corner of every Pokemon profile. If you tap it, it turns a yellowish gold.

Not really specific, you can literally favorite any Pokemon you desire, and you can also organize your Pokemon to show up on top first if you favorite them.

1) You can organize your Pokemon by Favourites to put the starred Pokemon at the top of your list.

2) Favourited Pokemon cannot be transferred to the professor for candy - until you take the star off. It's a way of preventing you accidentally sending back your favourite Pokemon.

Oh awesome! Thank you both so much! :)

As for now I was thinking of only posting the guide here if many people contributes, so there won't be a single person taking all the credit.

There are thousand of articles out there, but chances are that you're gonna spend a good couple of hours browsing the internet to learn most of it. So, anyone interested?

What kind of information are you looking for to help out with the guide? What kind of stuff do you need from us?

Un-install and re-install the app.

I would be eager to be able to put my proofreading skills to work, especially for a Pokémon-based project. I'll volunteer if you'd like me.

Attack strength vs attack IV
 
Hi I'm wondering how important attack IV is for higher level Pokemon with strong attacks, say of 100 or more. My blastoise has a killer move but an attack IV of 0. Should I power up and use him? Or won't it be worth it?

VisualJae August 25th, 2016 2:54 PM

Damage depends on stats.

A Blastoise with higher attack IVs will deal more damage than a Blastoise with lower attack IVs using the same attack, without factoring in opponent's base defense and stamina stats and IVs.

Simple as that.

A Snorlax using Hyper Beam will deal more damage than a Chansey using Hyper Beam because Chansey has crappy attack stats.

Helart August 25th, 2016 4:51 PM

My snorlax have 368 cp (powered) but the iv's status are pretty good min : 91.1 avg 92.2 max 93.3 so should i power up this poke?

CoronelGring0 August 25th, 2016 5:49 PM

Thanks for the response. I suppose I'm wondering if it would be worth it to keep and use a low-IV Blastoise with a strong special attack.

VisualJae August 25th, 2016 10:34 PM

Movesets > IVs.

Even a perfect IV Pokémon isn't really worth using if it has horrible attacks.

I wouldn't bother powering up that Blastoise, though. Wait to hatch a high IV Squirtle and work off that.

how many snorlax candy do you have?
i only ask that as although it is definately worth powering that Snorlax up in the long term as you are unlikely to get a better one for months (or until gen iv is released) but soon you are likely to run out of candy before it is powerful enough to battle it (unless you have hatched multiple snorlax)
if you are low on snorlax candy i would probably recommend saving it to power up when you have enough candy to get it up to a decent CP

CoronelGring0 August 26th, 2016 4:12 AM

That makes sense, thanks for the advice!

I'm curious what you consider high IV...

I have a squirtle and a warturtle in the mid 80 percentile.

Phoenixstarz August 26th, 2016 4:50 AM

depends how obsessed you get with IV's, i started aiming for 80%+ but now im getting that im starting to look for 90%+ and im sure once i achieve that it will be 100%

Helart August 26th, 2016 7:58 AM

i have 29 snorlax candy

Phoenixstarz August 26th, 2016 8:07 AM

that probably wouldnt get it very far, like i said that snorlax is definately worth investing in long term but spending stardust on it now will not get you much in terms of results

Afterglow Ampharos August 26th, 2016 5:02 PM

Hm, remind me, was it level 20 where things capped out in terms of, encountering more powerful Pokemon in the wild? Or was it Level 30?

Phoenixstarz August 27th, 2016 1:50 AM

Level 20 it caps for egg hatches, level 30 for wild pokemon

Ok. This will be my first experience with Etherpad but it looks simple enough.

May I ask why you feel the need to stay away?

toyforbob August 27th, 2016 10:16 AM

Haha~ cause of the addiction of playing the game {XD}
And the end of social life... -_-

Addiction to Pokemon Go would be more positive than addiction to any other game since it enforces an active lifestyle: walking around.

My social life has improved ever since the game started. Since everyone is A) outdoors or in popular meeting places and B) playing the game, you start talking to people you would never talk to otherwise, or you team up with your existing friends to go catch a bunch of mons.

---------------------

I have a question about the more advanced stats in this game:

Let's say I have one Drowzee in this category.
http://puu.sh/qQySz/0b14c20446.png

And a second Drowzee in this category.
http://puu.sh/qQyVu/cda8f12182.png

Which of those are considered more important? Sorry for being really inexperienced with advanced Pokemon stats.

Phoenixstarz August 27th, 2016 2:59 PM

The top one means that your drowzee has at least 82.2% IV's which is good, if your other drowzee has a full 15 IVs in one stat but not got 82.2 in total then it's not as good as your first drowzee.
