Pokémon Go is a 2016 augmented reality (AR) mobile game developed and published by Niantic in collaboration with The Pokémon Company for iOS and Android devices. A part of the Pokémon franchise, the game is the result of a collaboration between Niantic, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. It uses the mobile device GPS to locate, capture, battle, and train virtual creatures, called Pokémon, which appear as if they are in the player's real-world location. The game is free to play; it uses a freemium business model and supports in-app purchases for additional in-game items. The game launched with around 150 species of Pokémon, which had increased to around 500 by 2019.

Pokémon Go was released to mixed reviews; critics praised the concept, but criticized technical problems. It was one of the most used and profitable mobile apps in 2016, having been downloaded more than 500 million times worldwide by the end of the year. It is credited with popularizing location-based and AR technology, promoting physical activity, and helping local businesses grow due to increased foot traffic. However, it attracted controversy for contributing to accidents and creating public nuisances. Various governments expressed concerns about security, and some countries regulate its use. By early 2019, the game had over a billion global downloads, grossing over $3 billion in revenue. The game also had over 147 million monthly active users as of May 2018.

Crazy statement to say that none of them have play in PvP at all with a buffed sucker punch this season.

[RemuHeichou]

G Moltres is very good in all the leagues, not just the great league

[krushking]

I think these might pull some lucky trades for the first year or so, so I'm hype for the trade leverage

[NightStalker]

Yeah, they've all got signature moves in main series.
1. Freezing Glare (Psychic - PP: 10 Power: 90 Acc: 100% Add Eff: 10% chance to Freeze target)
2. Thunderous Kick (Fighting - PP: 10 Power: 90 Acc: 100% Add Eff: Target Def Down)
3. Fiery Wrath (Dark - PP: 10 Power: 90 Acc: 100% Add Eff: 20% chance to Flinch target)
Translated to GO, looks like Zappy Legs is gonna be best of the 3.

When reviewing this video, keep in mind none of these Pokemon have *not* had their wider coverage moves nor their signature moves added to the game, yet.

For example, Galarian Articuno can learn Fly, Shadow Ball & Freezing Glare.

Once they get their better moves, these Legendary Pokemon can become OP in PVP.

Don’t make videos without knowing..
Galarian moltres is very good in 3 of the leagues..

[Shaddyshad]

Galerian Moltres Ranked 17 In the Master even though Yveltal is better still worth it ... Its good in Ultra at 24

[zachpetersen]

I say you are wrong about Moltres being bad at pvp. I saw it abundantly at the Dortmund Regionals. It actually got a lot better with the move updates for pvp.

[fmjacket]

About G Articuno vs Lugia, I'm pretty sure even Lugia fell out of the pvp meta after the sky attack and Articuno would still perform worse. Still excited to encounter these birds though.

[jstrozza]

Appreciate the fact check you added when you made mistakes.

[drongobones]

They all will most likely get their signature moves at some point. Keep that in mind

[SlyGaara]

I don't care if there not good for something. They just sound fun to have.

[aximat]

Galarian moltres is much better for PvP in great and ultra leagues and even a potential alternative for yveltal in master league all thanks to the sucker punch buff. I personally have a decent PvP IV one that I use for one of my favorite ultra league teams so far this season.

[Rose_J]

i’ve never been interested in these birds and would certainly never use a master ball to catch them. Mostly for the reasons stated here, plus I have several of them in other Pokémon games, so the trophy aspect isn’t important either. I’ll save my master balls for something else in the future.

[operatedleech]

As a retuning player in may, i lost a lot of good events and origin Palkia and Dialga, and Mega Grouudon and Kyocera, this give me hope to have this great Pokemon

[JackPlaysMinecraft]

cmon ofc they are good cuz Galarian moltres is better with wing attack too they just need to be used in a certain way

[lionyute]

This man mentioned lucario in the list of good fighting pokemon lol

[mongchang]

🤔 1 year playing, level 43, 6 encounter with these birds. 4 caught and we are given a week or two to catch a shinny? 🤣 I would rather hunt a shinny shadow hundo Gible than look for them Dame birds. 😉😆

[darkkey]

I'm just looking for the shinies. I don't do PVP and I've got plenty of good raid pokemon with these types already.

[roberth]

What do you think about using a Master Ball against these? I know they are difficult and rare to catch. But is it worth it?
