I couldn’t agree more, there are several reasons due to this.
At my location there are few stops and gyms, somewhat improved the last year.
I still don’t understand why the raiding-system is locked to a specific time-spawn, this reduces and has reduced mine and others opportunities to participate, none the less that lower level trainers aren’t so welcome.
Also people don’t show up anymore for raids that are five or below, because they already have collected the Pokemons. I can’t fight a raid myself. The raid system should scale to the trainer level and award more rare candy, even at lower raid leves.
If Niantic made up some way to even buy something that can give more rare candy, I’d be more than happy.
But it’s only other weakness is water, so it’s a pretty decent generalist, plus it resists fighting which is nice for any gym defender in the current meta
Its a horrible generalist, it would need decent stats at first
Really, the only good evolutions are Magnezone, Rhyperior, Mamoswine, Porygon-Z, Glaceon, and maybe Tangrowth
Even with quests it’s not enough. The drop rate for rare candy isn’t high enough and playing in rural areas still sucks. They need to put themselves in a rural trainers shoes.
Probably 3400. I don’t see them nerfing it. Kyogre and groudon are over 4000 and they weren’t nerfed. Rhyperior maxes at under 3900 so I think we’re safe.
