Dreaming of a way to improve IVs

Three fast moves?

Where?

You get a new fast move twice

I’m a Pokémon noob, so I don’t know if this was a thing in the “normal” games. But in Let’s Go you can do something called hyper training (after becoming the Champ). You take your level 100 Pokémon to Mr. Hyper (situated in the Pokémon daycare) and for a bottle cap he maxes one stat of your Pokémon (or all stats for a golden bottle cap). I got a perfect Mewtwo by this…

It’s hard to imagine how this could be translated to PoGo, though. But let’s see…

  • having your Pokémon on the maximum level could still be a prerequisite. I know, many people below level 38 will hate me for this…
  • the bottle caps could be introduced as a requirement easily, too. Ok, it’s another new item, but having seen the number of different items in Let’s Go, I don’t care any more…
  • We would then need a hyper trainer, this could be our team leaders, Prof. Willow or a new person (Mr. Hyper?)… The hyper trainer should not be available 24/7… so maybe only once a week… after a research breakthrough? Something like this…
  • then we still need a way to earn those bottle caps. PvP sounds obvious, but I’m not sure if this should be the only way

Yeah

Well, it would be cool, but one 100% iv Pokemon loses its value. But i think it would do more good than bad

USUM? United States of Upper Michigan? Under Secretary for Unsold Merchandise? Sorry for the ignorance…

Sorry for the confusion.

Key to “cash in points to improve moves” was the word ‘improve’ – as in TM, not like buying additional moves.

22

Also meant to be cheaper to have the game ‘randomly’ pick the new move and more costly to let the trainer choose the new move – to preserve the cost-risk-value element in the game.

This is the first I’ve heard of Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon. Thanks for the clarification.

It would be rad to get Gold Bottle Caps in the game. I know some Pokemon that I fully intend to level up that would use them should that happen.

26

I know that when they got rid of the prestige system, they had no training (until now)
But I thought the could add to train against random Pokémon and after a number of trains, it would become the next up appraisal level, so Mystic people: like from
Not likely-10 trains-above average
Above average- 15 trains- caught attention
Caught attention-20 trains- Wonder!
Wonder =81-100 IVs. To get 100 IV from a Wonder, it would be :100: trains

Even then, there could be more trains for that

No, simply because pvp isn’t available to everyone

Agreed, Training would be the best way but they do need to make it a long Grinding Process to get there.
I’d even go as far as making it Training for IV stat points and a Dust Cost to activate it.
After all the Games slogan is “Gotta Catch Em All”

It seems it is much easier just to add more dresses and costumes in PoGo for Niantic…

I Love this idea too but I expect this would be too long if ever it got implemented…

BUT I would love for me to be totally wrong about this :grin:

This could also work like this:
Walk mon as buddy for 100 kms for +1 hp/atk/def stat increase (get to choose, max 15)
Previous buddys would benefit if walked long enough

The math really doesnt add up
You dont have 100IVs, you have 100%
Total IVs are 45
So at max you could have 9 trains to 100%
