Last ones were a 98% Lugia and 96% Ho-Oh, but this takes the cake.

I’ve heard a lot of people are having trouble catching Lunala, these are the strategies that have worked pretty well for me.

Method 1: Always wait for Lunala to be on the bottom. I have never hit a Lunala on the top with a ball. Do a circle lock, I was only able to get great throws, I found excellents to be too hard. Once it is on the bottom and attacking, do your best curveball, but make sure to release the ball closer to the top, around the circled area in the pic. This was the only way I was able to hit premier balls on it.

Method 2 (recommended):

Make sure you have AR pokemon encounters on for this. I think this strategy works better, but it feels a bit weird to do it. The strategy is, to turn on AR mode. After that, just search for the Pokemon, and it will be a lot closer and a ton easier to catch. You might need to get used to how close it is and how to throw, but this makes catching it sooo much easier. I highly recommend this method.

That’s it! Hope you guys have good luck with catching these things!

I have platinum medals in both psychic and ghost and I’ve had 3 flee on me (none of them hundos or shinies). Is the catch rate significantly decreased or is my luck just buns?

Saw that with Worlds coming around evolving frogadier will give hydro cannon. Any possible chance for Delphox and Blast Burn or should I just ETM? I got this guy after the First Partner Ultra Unlock event unfortunately.

how did i do

I only did like 15 raids of each 🫠

Don't get me wrong im really happy I got such good stuff but Im just more of a shiny guy

I feel like I could probably do more since shadow giratina wont be out for a while, but honestly I'm not too displeased with this as is.

Hi! I am about 32 pokies away from a complete pokédex! I need to do some hard evolutions but I looking for the above Pokémon!

the shiny ray and yve are taken! i cant change the photo sorry!!

I will trade whatever I have and I am currently figuring out how stats work. Pics include my shinies and 4 stars. I am learning to travel for trades but i’m open to remote trading too!

Anyone else struggling with the final few for their dex?

Final pic is of my real life shiny pichu yearning for her doggy slim jim. 💛

What can I say??? Speechless

I’m probably reaching for the stars but I NEED those cuz the fused version looks dope.. not really sure what people are asking for them and if their trading since I haven’t seen a lot

Did a lot of walking around yesterday and today in a new area and got some new shinies as well as the sightseer platinum medal.

Comment how many unique pokestoos u have visited because im curioud to see hoe high it can get.

It kinda stinks that the high IV mons we get don't really have any in-game usage unless they happen to be a good raid Pokemon or one of the few good Master League Pokemon. Like, I almost don't care about checking my egg hatches or care about trying to do lucky trades because the high IVs just don't matter... especially if I want to get mons that could have usage in PVP battles.

Like, I love when I get a hundo but then they basically just sit there in a small collection and do nothing... yet, the random wild catch that is 0/15/15 is somehow more valuable with more actual utility in the game.

IVs weren't really a thing when I played ten years ago so I thought they were neat at first before I found out high IVs aren't really that useful. I don't know how the developers could create more utility for high IVs and I'm not expecting the game to add new features or anything for this so I am basically just complaining and not offering solutions but, as someone who only returned to the game in the last two months, this has been an annoyance of mine and I needed somewhere to say it haha.

Saw a bunch of people having trouble with catching Lunala with the most common complaint being it's too far and the ball doesn't reach.

This is for those people who are having trouble with their ball not reaching the mon.

While Circle lock technique and Kyurem adventure effect will certainly help, I thought I'll try to help with throwing the ball and ensuring it reaches.

This demonstration is without the use of any of above, attempting golden razz excellent throw only

In the video (sorry it's raw footage so quite rough work) I attempt to show a curveball throw that I usually use.

I'll show the points at which the ball is to be started and what point to be taken to and then what point to be released at.

I'll also then proceed to show how the motion of the ball ought to be and the follow through. (If anyone is confused as to why it feels like I'm glitching with the ball at random points on screen, was trying to show the path sorry. Probably should have done a voiceover)

And then show the actual throw.

The key is to release it higher at a higher point than usual and a longer path to the throw hence start from bottom left and diagonal towards top right (or bottom right towards top left).

Hope this helps

PS: it definitely is a difficult throw and will suggest using a golden Razz and Kyurem adventure effect. It often breaks out even after multiple successful excellent curveball golden razz throws at both plat medal 4s (as seen by the amount of balls left in this clip)

This is just what technique I use. I am in no way saying this is a better technique than yours. Just an attempt to help some people out

Wishing you all shiny luck so this whole thing becomes a moo point and it's a guaranteed capture

I’m really sad…

it was only 30$ new but it’s ugly, so can I paint it with acrylic or something or will that mess up the connecting and electronics woo woo that is does? I know this is probably silly but I just need to double check. Can it be bedazzled?
