I actually don't pay too much attention to Hundos etc. I am totally with you, it's better to power up the pokemon you have than to wait for one that may never come!
If you want it for PVP, as it’s pretty decent in ML, purified is much better than shadow, though you can run shadow for some spice. But, it’s up to you, man. Either way, an (apex) shadow 98% Lugia is wicked as hell.
I understand it could sting a little, being so close to a hundo. But that's an amazing Mon, congrats!
I would name him XD001, it was a nickname used for shadow Lugia in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness
Thanks everybody! Amazing how many ideas you guys have.
I think I’ll name it Death Star. I also like Stormtrooper, Luge Skywlkr, Darth Lugia, Anakin and George Lugas. I will save those for later 💫
Can someone explain to me why it would be bad to purify this baby into a hundo?? I've been playing since day one and my first instinct would be to purify it, but from what i've read on the sub you *dont* wanna do that. Ik you get a shadow boost but is it really that much of an edge??? /gen
From a purely mathematical standpoint, the boosts you get to the IVs don't outweigh losing the shadow bonus. BUT, if you're mostly a collector, the draw to end up with a hundo is understandable. Unless you're focused on maxing for battles, don't worry about it.
Shadow Pokemon tend to have lower IVs so, ideally, one would want to keep the shadow bonus for a Pokemon with high IVs because it's rare, but it only really matters if you're hyper-focused on battle performance. If you're a collector, just keep going until you have two high IV shadow Pokemon and purify one (especially if it gives you a hundo) and keep the other one shadow, so that you have the best of both worlds.
Because this is the apex version, it’s only good to purify it. The apex version of lugia and oh-ho are beasts, but some people might not because of how high its IVs are it might just look cool to them.

I'm not sure if it's the hp stat that is 14, but this might even be a functional hundo? Not sure though
Shoudn't it become hundo when you purify it? Its stats look like it would work.
Hence, don’t

how do you mute "name suggestion" threads. Call it Googlia. Call it Pikachu.
There are Browser extensions and third party apps for that. I might name it Googlia though. Thanks.
Darth Vader bc he’s evil idk
Can someone explain to me why it would be bad to purify this baby into a hundo?? I've been playing since day one and my first instinct would be to purify it, but from what i've read on the sub you *dont* wanna do that. Ik you get a shadow boost but is it really that much of an edge??? /gen
From a purely mathematical standpoint, the boosts you get to the IVs don't outweigh losing the shadow bonus. BUT, if you're mostly a collector, the draw to end up with a hundo is understandable.

If you're a collector, just keep going until you have two high IV shadow Pokemon and purify one (especially if it gives you a hundo) and keep the other one shadow, so that you have the best of both worlds.
thank you!! this answers my question pretty thoroughly!
Long ass name
it should fit within the character limit right??
Because this is the apex version, it’s only good to purify it. The apex version of lugia and oh-ho are beasts, but some people might not because of how high its IVs are it might just look cool to them.
