Hey all,

 

I've spent all 3 zones with average Pokémon just good enough to beat e4/gym leaders.

 

I'm going to be spending the next few days hunting very high IV Pokémon for beating bosses and hopefully pvp.

 

What 3 Pokémon do you recommend I catch for this purpose? I.e. what are the 3 strongest pokemans in your eyes? And what nature/ability?

 

Right now all my pokes are just "meh" so I want a WOW NICE poke.

 

Thanks for the help.

Hello @[mention]MystiKasT[/mention],

 

depends on the purpose for them?

Boss fights, I suggest Tangrowth, Cofagrigus and Slowbro

PVP, I suggest Gengar, Blissey

 

It's hard to decide what you want to play in PVP soo but bosses are quite easy

Hi I recently started playing too, my game progress is even behind you due to too much grinding, but from my experience you are not going to get the strongest pokemons + high iv + right nature and (potentially hidden) ability in a few DAYS, probably a few MONTHS will do.

 

The traditionally "elite" pokemons all have the highest rarity tier @ 9 and have pretty absurd encounter rates (after some frustrations i'm trying to figure out what the exact numbers are), which makes it near impossible to get competitive individuals within a reasonable time.

 

That being said, probably go for something around rarity 4-7 if you don't plan to invest more than a month or so on one pokemon. Some nice examples include Exeggutors(tier 4) and Magnezone(tier 2). Check out the rarity table too, find your own niche. Don't go for anything 7 or above. Hope it helps.

Lets say for boss fights then :)

Can you recommend any must-have skills on that poke? Particularly tangrowth? I've been farming tangela since you told me.

Hey there, you could also abuse the FLASH move or any move the reduces accuracy, after that switch in a sweeper with Dragon Dance, Swords Dance/Nasty Plot with Agility, buff them fully and sweep. Moves that reduces foe's Atk or Sptk would also be a good assistance for the sweeper.

Anyone Have any suggestions on boss beating pokes?

Any pokemon that can take some hits, boost their own stats and have a recovery move are good for bosses. Slowbro, Clefable and Gastrodon are some examples.
