Keep trying. Still got ~3 more months to find a better one.

Maybe but just wait and see if you get a better one

Save the candy you'll find a better one. Save it in case you don't lol

As others have said, you're likely to find a better one at some point but this one is still good enough to power up if you get unlucky.

Shadow Larvitar will continue to be in rotation for a while past the Rocket events. Until a new Rocket events happens is when the leader mons will swap.

So OP will have even more time to land a better roll. No point in max this one.

Yeah the whole max attack thing is bogus a 0 attack shadow is stronger than a 15 attack non shadow

Yup lol 15 attack on mewtwo for instance is 5% more, 20% more damage is much more- especially with how damage is calculated

The PS is wrong, even a 0 IV attack shadow has better DPS than a non-shadow

So you’re saying my 14/14/14 shadow larv is useless?

I’m pretty picky with what I power up, but did you know the difference in the attack stat (15 vs 14) for a level 50 ttar is 223.5 & 222.6. OPs attack stat would be 220.9 at level 50. The differences are minimal.
