"Calculators: We are doing it wrong!"
#PokemonGO: I think IV calculators are giving us the % in the wrong way. We are blindly deciding that for example a 93% pokémon is always better to evolve than a 84% pokémon and that is not always true. Most of us know this, but wouldn't it be better if the calculators can give us the % of the total CP of the Pokémon instead of the total % of its combined stats? I will show an example:I have two Larvitar hatched from eggs, they are both obviously lv20. One has a 84.4% IV (501 CP) and the other 88.9% (497) . The reason for the CP being higher on the overall lower % stat is because its attack stat is higher. Now without having all this data, most people will always evolve the 88.9% one.What if the calculators gives us the % of the total CP of a given Pokémon instead of the total % of its combined stats?Following the earlier example the resulting Tyranitar of the 84.4% one at lv33 will end up with 3249 CP and the 88.9% one will end up with 3241 CP. Maybe in this example is not much of a difference, but this is more accentuated in other Pokémon like Chansey. What I propose:Instead of calculating the total IV stats percentage, we should be calculating the total porcentage of possible CP How to do it with the previous example?At lv33 the best possible Tyranitar has a CP of 3303 and the worst possible one a CP of 2905. The difference here is 398 between the two. By calulating the difference between our Pokémon and the worst possible:3241 CP Tyranitar: 3241-2905 = 336 | 336 is the 84.4% of 3983249 CP Tyranitar: 3249-2905 = 344 | 344 is the 86.4% of 398 So:The previous 84.4% IV Tyranitar of 3249 should have a real porcentage of 86.4%The previous 88.9% IV Tyranitar of 3241 CP should have a real porcentage of 84.4% Opinions? via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2oVnQ0z
