Let’s see, maybe an idea for a new internal competition.
I’ve read the article how the points for showcases are calculated. And mathematical formulae allways have activated my mind. So I have prepared an Excel-Sheet which does this work for me.
Today I was near to a Showcase-Stop for Vulpix and have given it a try.
I have calculated 712,7 points, the Stop told me 710.
My sheet gave 574,4 points, the Stop gave 572.
In the article they explained that the app use the real height and weight (apart of the IV), meanwhile we can only use the data seen on screen, and that this allways gave a difference in the result.
Well, the idea is we could make a thread, where every week a Pokemon is protagonist, all who want to participate send me a post with the screenshot and the IV of this particular Pokémon. I calculate the points and publish the clasification.
Or, more easy for me, I publish how to calculate and you send the results…
After turning around all night my mind has changed the idea…
At the end the calculation is a normalization of height, weight and IV.
The height can give you a maximum score of 800 points.
The weight a maximum of 150 points and IV another 50 points.
So the best of all Pokémon in all types will be a Hundo XXL which gives 1000 points.
I would like to call them THOUSANDOS.
So, instead of making a competition for every type of Pokémon, it will be more interesting to search, between all of us, if we are able to find one of these Thousandos, which will be more rare than anything else in this game.
Yeah, I found the error… Instead of 0.3 m and 1.2 kg as media, I had copied 0.2 m and 1.3 kg.
The new and correct score for this Pokémon is 881.4 points.
It’s never a good idea coming home from some beers with friends trying to respond rapidly to the things in the web…
Today I made running down of my Pokébag in one account, and the scores go from 386,2 up to 926,8… the highest not so bad. But now I understand why I don’t win in the Showcases.
There was some discussion about something being broken when it came to calculating the same Pokémon from other regions.
It’s what there was no Wooper show case on it’s CD. Maybe they thought they fixed it?
