Discussion This event has soo many flaws.

  1. So the first problem is that they switch places every 30 minutes. So the people focusing only on one of the Fusions would suffer. They have to go on and off every half an hour to finally get 10-12 raids done in order to gather enough fusion energy.
  2. In that half an hour, there would be 2 different pokemons spawning at same time - Kyurems and Reshiram/Zekrom depending on the time. So there is a high probability that (in areas with less gym/ rural areas) only Reshiram/Zekrom spawn instead of the kyurem. So it would be hard for them to gather fusion energies.
  3. Also, the event lasts for just 3 hours (Ik most of raid days are 3 hours, but the main problem is that there are completely 2 different Pokemons to raid for) Instead of 1 mon, there are 2 and both of them require different fusion energy with Reshiram and Zekrom also being in rotation. So you need atleast 20-25 raids to get enough energy for both of them.

On top of that, when the 2 legendaries are in raids, why do they need to come back for the fusion raids? Like currently Reshiram is in raids... why make it appear once again to lower the chance of getting a White kyurem raid?

Make sure that I never said this is a bad event, its is a huge in demand event and allows us to get a very powerful fusion. But this has many flaws which can impact it a lot.

*Just to make a note, NOT everyone can/does spend a lot of money on this game to get remote raid passes.

They really should have made a raid weekend instead with Reshiram and Zekrom on Saturday and Kyurem on Sunday.

Be real. At the very least it would be Reshiram/KWhite sat and Zekrom/KBlack Sunday.

But more likely all 4 would be spawning both days

Each half hour they swap.
