I just got an Eevee from a 10K egg... Sigh...
Hmm, 91400 Stardust and 75 Candy to level this perfect Iv level 15 Dratini to level 29.5. I'm going to say worth it?
Now that I really understand how quick dust costs get completely crazy, I honestly think I'd power up a high tier 100% IV pokemon from level 1 if it had a good move set. It costs 45k dust to level from 1-20 and 250k dust to level from 20 to max, so the dust cost from 1-20 is pretty trivial in the long run. Now if you were unfortunate enough to find a 100% lvl 1 Lapras or Snorlax, that might suck but now that you can just grind the candy out with the buddy system I think I'd still do it.
Even if the difference between a 100% and a 90% pokemon is almost negligible, it still boils back down to higher IVs being the one and only thing you can control about how powerful your pokemon is.
Got my first Dragonite (87%) yesterday via 125 candy. Has Steel Wing and Dragon Pulse. Now I know it's a shitty moveset but Steel beats Fairy and Ice; Dragon beats Dragon. So I'm thinking it'll be a great gym defender since it is super effective against its counters, then again no STAB on Steel Wing :/
So far x3 Vaporeon army destroys everything with a Lapras for the Eggs.
I don't know who's a bigger nerd, you for naming your dragonite Khellendros or me for instantly recognizing the reference.
Be a hipster and name it Marduk.
.... after the Tekken character?
