My 1700 CP Jolteon before the changes could solo 1v1 2400 CP Vapes.

You're doing it wrong when Jolteon got like +40 base Attack and +27 base Defense from this change.

Jolteon has so little HP it can't beat a Lapras 1v1.

Wigglytuff and Arcanine could, but who cares about those shitters? WE NEED TO BUFF VAPOREON AND ALL THE ROCK TYPES SO THAT VAPOREON CAN KILL EVERYTHING HURRRRRRR.

0/10 update, the event will be shit too because who gives a fuck about double exp when there's nothing to fucking do anymore because they've made the game even more stale by buffing the top pokemon further.

(a) Yes it could, my 1700 CP Jolteon was beating 2.2k+ CP Laprases 1v1 all the time.
(b) Jolteon has +40 base Attack, and +27 base Defense from the change while Lapras was a constant zero. Jolteon is now stronger AND tankier. Now my Jolteon is 2300 CP. Fucker's going to destroy more Laprases than ever.

>get fucked niantic apologist.
Ad hominems doesn't make you less wrong, retard, especially when you miss the mark on the insult because I wasn't apologising for Niantic at all.

I wasn't disagreeing with your comments about how fucked the balance with vapes was. Just the part where you think that a fucking Wigglytuff and Arcanine do better than a Jolteon. I specifically said Jolteon, not Raichu or Electrode because Jolteons work perfectly well against Laprases with stats higher than them and I haven't tried the other two. Now not only is Jolteon much stronger, it's also much tankier so a favourable matchup for the Jolteon just got more fucking better. I don't care about discussing vapes and Niantic's stupidity with you, I agree with you there, but whining about "nerf the only 2 lapras counters in the game" when Jolteon wasn't fucking nerfed is just plain stupid.
>>
>>30113139
Jolteon is kinda a garbage attacker senpai. My arcanine can do in 25 seconds what jolteon takes 50 to do.
>>
>>30113121
i like them, but they're too relevant by dominating all the other water mons, and having almost no counters

they also render all the fire types useless
>>
>>30113139
Arcanine was always the number 1 lapras counter because outside of dragon pulse Lapras could barely scratch Arcanine while fire fang and fire blast rekt it.

Wigglytuff with pound and hyper beam out paced defending lapras due to higher HP and better attack speed.

Jolteon has the "it's super effective!" message and that's it, it cannot outpace iceshard lapras unless your dodge game is damn near perfect (which considering how bad gym lag can get doesn't seem likely).

This buff does fuck all to change Jolteon, other than making spazzes like you think he's good while the rest of us laugh at you.
>>
>>30112588
>nerf the only 2 Lapras counters in the game

Jolteon, Electrode, and Magneton got buffed though. My Electrode was originally at 1125 CP before being buffed, and was able to take down a 2500 CP Lapras.
>>
>>30112389
It's only a 5% drop in CP though. Sure, it's been overtaken by Flareon, but it's still a decent attacker.
>>
>>30113236
>"I am bad at fighting/dodging so you have to be too."
It's like you didn't read the part where I was consistently taking down significantly stronger Laprases 1v1 with a 1700 CP Jolteon.

>it cannot outpace iceshard lapras unless your dodge game is damn near perfect
You suck at using a Jolteon, great. Good for you. You're still wrong.
I don't even need to dodge ice shards or frost breaths. Dodging charge moves is all I need.

Thing is that I already have a stack of Flareons.

The Arcanine was in the dusting queue because it had a higher CP than the high level Flareons I already had on hand. Not the case anymore so might as well dust something else like another vape, or the existing Flareons because I can power them up 4 more times now.

Here's a before and after pic, for example.

I always use Gyarados with bite/pump against Lapras if I can. Gyarados is strong against both dragon and ice attacks and he's fast enough with bite. Even if pump is not very effective on Lapras, the speed helps to finish them quickly still.

So Arcanine or Flareon?
Flareon now has 65 more cp. Flareon has better attack, defense.
Arcanine has better stamina.
With the best moveset for both, Arcanine has the better fast attack with better dps (same eps) because ember's animation goes on for too long.

I assume buffing vaporeon, and then things vaporeon wrecks was to further help gym's be swapped day to day, but some of these other changes are fucked boys
>>
>>30114607
Rhydon definitely.
Gengar still not so much unless gastly is common in your area, he's decent though.
Chansey still sucks.
>>
>>30114533
He lost 20 base def though but at least he isn't victorybell
>>
>>30114607
Gengar still isn't amazing
Don't bother powering up any Eeveelutions, just find a high level Eevee (which are fairly common in most places since the update) and evolve that for just 25 candies
Alakazam is pretty good, as with Golem
Rhydon, Gyrados, Snorlax and Dragonite are all 3000+ CP mons now (Vaporeon too but read above)
Lapras remains the same
Chansey will be good for memes

Also Krabby got like 500 cp.
>>
>>30114655
Venusuar still worth using as top grass mon with grass quickmoves
>>
>>30114655
>>30114658
It's a formula, not hand picked changes
It's probably closer to how the game should have been in the first place, the whole reason for the change was because of Pokemon like Alakazam being criminally underpowered due to the original formula, it should have never been like that in the first place
>>
>>30114712
>It's a formula, not hand picked changes
Are we sure about that yet?

Seems like they changed up the base stats but not the CP formula, and I'm too lazy to fire up MATLAB to see if the changes in base stats come from handpicked changes or if they just changed the mainline base stat conversion formula.
>>
>>30114712
>waaaah muh alakazam!

Yeah that's great, now we have even less viable counters to top pokemon to satisfy faggots who cried about Gengar and co. being shit in this game.

I can't wait until we have 0 good grass pokemon and everything is infested with vapes,Kingdra and Lapras.
>>
>>30114712
Eh that'd be extremely lazy considering how few pokemon there currently are. Also how some pokemon got boosted by 500+cp, and others so little makes me very curious to see what sort of an algorithm they used to flip certain switches and not others.
>>
>>30114712
It can't be a formula because so many mons were left unchanged by the update from looks of it.
>>
>>30114737
The change in formula was because the original one didn't take into account either special attack or special defense very well, and cucked a lot of special based pokemon

It's amazing how this update apparently takes into account special stats more, yet Rhydon got a huge buff despite having shit special stats and grass mons with good special stats went down in cp.

Even if it counts speed more now (explaining the aerodactyl buff) that shouldn't take Rhydon to 3300 max cp.

Something reeks about this update, I imagine the new totals for gen 2 pokemon make things a little more interesting but I fear it'll still just be vaporeon spam everywhere....yawn.
>>
>>30114768
Why can't it be? According to the list only one Pokémon was entirely unchanged, and that was Lapras. It's more likely that it is a formula, since I can't imagine anyone sitting down and saying 'yes, this 0.14% change in CP for Exeggcute is what the metagame needs right now'.

I think that the new formula just takes both minmaxed stats (whether it's the ratio of one attacking stat over the other, or just using the highest) and speed into account more. That's why Pokémon with high Defense but low Special Defense like the Rock-types and Cloyster got such a boost. That's why Kingler, with 130 Attack and 115 Defense (plus a respectable 75 Speed) got such an enormous boost. On the other hand, mixed attackers (like Victreebel) and mons with very similar stats across the board (like Clefable/Wigglytuff and Poliwrath) got nerfed.

Before, minmaxed mons like Alakazam got the short end of the stick because it was more about average stats. Now it's BST and the highest stat that counts, I think.

>Gyarados is strong against both dragon and ice attacks
no, it's just not especially weak against those. it'll take full damage from dragon pulse and 1.25x from ice because of stab, while having no stab itself. gyarados' only stab attack is hydropump which isn't very effective against lapras 1.25*0.8=1

Raichu changed, I had two 1126 Raichus and they're 1124 and 1225 now
>>
>>30114913
it's not like they're common, it's just that spoofers are usually concentrated in big cities so we need to deal with Lapras more often
>>
>>30114760
The algorithm probably takes into account the stages of evolution and whether it has a really strong physical or special stat and compensate for it. That or Speed is suddenly extra noticeable in every stat all around so slower Pokemon are hit more or something, I don't know.

But when Alakazam's base Attack goes from 186 to 271, something must be checking whether or not a Pokemon is specialised in Special or Physical.

>>30114794
>the original one didn't take into account either special attack or special defense
No, it discriminated equally against specialised attackers / defenders. Alakazam and Gengar were special sweepers with shit physical attack, so they suffered. But on the other end of the spectrum, physical specialists like Rhydon got buffs too.

But it seems that it doesn't change the fact that Pokemon with at least above average stats in both like Vaporeon and Dragonite still get way more benefits from CP than the other Pokemon so they just got buffed naturally as a result. It's why Vapes were already naturally high on the CP scale in the first place.
>>

Hes rare as fuck everywhere but we have had half a year to look and hatch 10K eggs. I got mine over the summer from a 10K with 97% stats and perfect attacking moveset then a little over a month ago found one with shit IVs but an ok level and a great defensive moveset.

The CP system was all over the place
This update is no where close to ideal, but it's better than it was, we at least have some more diversity in the meta roster with a good bunch being boosted up to the mid 2500s
They really need to rework it and handpick certain Pokemon like Vaporeon who's ridiculously overpowered, and up those who got undeservedly nerfed like Dewgong and Hypno

>>30115007
Excellent rebuttal

>>30115034
Should have nerfed some pokemon or not buffed them eg eeveelutions

Maybe they'll rebalance for speed later on.
>>
>>30114897
well, right, but he still gets the job done. If you dodge the secondary attacks he usually kills the lapras while retaining half of his own HP and does that fairly quickly too. And now he's even more buff, so I'm sticking with him for now.
>>
>>30114886
but then lapras should have lost some CP, as it the pokemon with the most balanced stats ever, isn't it?
>>
>>30115034
Nay, they buffed stuff that didn't need buffing and nerfed things that didn't need nerfing.

Water dog continues to dominate and will do even more so with Jolteon being the best thing people can muster against it right now.

>>30115058
>more diversity
>all the top mons got buffed aside from Lapras (no change) and eggman and firedoggo who got nerfed
>the things that got buffed don't really do anthing outside of Rhydon who counters snorlax but gets shit on by the 3000cp vapes that people now have

Nerfing things like raichu, dewgong and grassmons makes 0 sense, if anything they should've buffed the former and left that latter alone.

I hope Ampharos and maybe Lantern can save us from Vapenation, otherwise I think I'm done, slogging through giant HP sponges on every gym is tiresome.

Both cucked by Niantic giving them dogshit moves (Magneton not getting thunder is horseshit).

Gengar is still trash because there's nothing for it to do, Alakazam is good for attacking if you get one moveset otherwise throw him in trash, same with Machamp.

The only winners from this update are Rhydon and Golem, both of which die instantly to Vaporeon...what a shocker.

Jynx Tauros and Hitmonlee pop up fully formed with a single moveset. Theres no risk in getting shit movesets you either got a good one instantly or you dont.

Tentacruel got a pretty nice upgrade.It wasent huge but it was an already semi-useable Pokemon that just got stronger while not being too high on the rarity scale

I do agree that the return of Vape-nation is bullshit but meh

>>30114083
alright look

Jolteon works against Lapras. It does its job, solely because of having STAB on one of its weaknesses. I fully believe you when you say that Jolt can take down Laprases considerably more powerful.

Still, that won't make start recommending Jolteon as a Lapras slayer. RK9 and Flareon has higher CP and thus their DPS is just about the same despite fire just dealing neutral damage. Their bulk is much better, once again because of higher CP but also because they resist ice, so unlike Jolteon, they won't be on their last slicer of health once Lapras is down. If anything, Magneton is the better electric against Lapras since it resists ice but also has Spark as fast move.

Many mons work against Lapras, but not all of them are ideal.

I think Machamp is better than all of them against Lapras, especially if you care about time.

the way the formula combined special and physical stats changed from:

for Lapras both stats are exactly the same, that's why the new formula changed nothing

>>30116967
Nidoroyals were never good defenders though, since Water types of every CP range are so common.
>>
>>30117176
They had high CP so I'd shove them into gyms if all my regular defenders were used up
Honestly CP the most important part of a Defender, if someone wants to take down your gym, they will, regardless of what's in it
At least having high CP will give you better placement
>>
>>30117202
Honestly, my Nidos never had great CP. They weren't horrible, but my Nidoking was always 400 below my Vapes.

Maybe if you go through ten gyms a day and really run out of defenders, I guess. Here I don't really have this problem because walking to ten gyms in a row takes too much time and because I'll have lost half of them by the time I reach the last one. I just cash in my coins when I get 2-3 now.

I catch a shittonne around here and usually by the time I'd get to 125 candies, I'd have saved up some really high Nidoran that would evolve into at least 1800, so I'd just evolve them right up and discard the lowest Nidoroyal of that gender I had, so it was like a constant upgrade
But now my 1900 Nidoqueen is in the 1700 range, which is now useless considering bloody Kinglers are now higher on average
I guess I'll just keep one of each now and never use them again

Texting is easier, and solves everything someone calling would want
If you are somewhere you can't make noise, you text someone you don't call
If you don't want to bother the person, you text and waits for him to respond, you don't call
If you really wants to call someone, you should text the person asking if you can call him at the time and when he answers "sure", then you call him
Calling without texting before should be allowed only in emergency situations.

Seaking got the 3rd smallest stat change of all the Pokemon, 1st being Lapras at 0 and Exeggcute getting a 0.14 buff, so at least the nerf wasn't noticeable
Better moves would be nice though yeah

isn't it objectively inferior to Vape anyway?
>>
>>30118226
Yes, but it's more unique than Vape so it's subjectively better
>>
>>30118226
Rock-typing gives it a niche when attacking, since it'll resist things like Hyper Beam and Body Slam. And with the general Grass nerf it's only gotten better.
>>
>>30118261
>it'll resist things like Hyper Beam and Body Slam
but it has like half of Vape's HP, so it doesn't change much
>>
>>30116899
I noticed it too. Just reached lvl 30 and now I can't catch any shitty Piddgey or Rattata above 300cp without at least a great ball and a great throw.
>>
Did they fuck the catch rates again???
>>
>>30118278
It takes less damage though due to higher def.

It's not better than Vaporeon but it's also not a 'worse Vaporeon' like, say, Blastoise is.
>>
>>30115111
/vp/ is not for normies. Please leave.

>>30118376
I'm pretty sure that even if we factor 0.8 damage modifier from NVE damage and the extra 50 defense, Omastar will still take more damage percentage wise compared to Vape

Charizard is still the best Firemon I've got, don't worry about it
Kingler has shit moves and shouldn't even be considered good
>>
Level 28 here.

Pretty happy with the rebalancing.
>>
Some changes are cool but why the fuck did they buff the top tier defenders and skyrocket rhydon and fucking kingler while nerving every grass mon in the game along with mons like blastoise and polibro that already were 100% outclassed by vaporeon

Changes are good but it looks completely random. The only really good buffs were Zam and Gar
>>
>>30119054
Alakazam and Gengar were the whole reason for the buffs anyway, because muh GB games.

Too bad they're still useless, because they're shit defenders and don't counter anything of note as attackers.
>>
>>30118376
I guess you could claim omastar can be more hp-efficient because compared to vapedog your damage given - damage taken is higher. Having all that health is generally more useful though unless youre living somewhere with no stops and you can't get healing items on tap.
>>
>>30119149
Even with the buff Gengar still gets easily defeated by a Hypno that's about 400 cp lower if you don't dodge carefully.

with your nest situation you don't need to worry about saving candy for a pokemon that'll only arrive in 6 years.

Clefable for Moonblast, Wiggly for Hyper Beam
