"You CAN Use the Visual CP Glitch to Re-roll a Raid Boss’ CP"

#PokemonGO: This post proves that you can use an in-game glitch to re-roll a single raid boss’ CP multiple times in a single raid. Warning: This is somewhat game-breaking.To begin, yesterday, I posted an explanation of the visual glitch that occurs when you crash your game on the catch screen following a raid. See here: http://ift.tt/2vZcnRX that post, I explained that there is a privileged CP value in every raid. Here’s how you can use that information to re-roll CP.This experiment actually happened:Two trainers entered a lobby to fight a Gengar.Midway through the battle, Trainer 2 closed his app. HE DID NOT LEAVE THE GROUP!Trainer 1 finished the battle.Trainer 1 received a CP of 1468.Trainer 1 crashed the catch screen, reloaded, and saw a CP of 1460.This means that Trainer 2 WOULD have received a CP of 1460, had he stayed in the battle.HOWEVER, here is the catch:Trainer 2 now has an option. Click the gym where the raid occurred, and he will be taken to the catch screen, where he will encounter a Gengar with a CP of 1460.ORWait 15 minutes WITHOUT CLICKING THE GYM. After the time period is over, Trainer 2 is allowed to fight the raid boss again, as if he never participated in the first battle.In this case, he fought the Gengar again, and upon completing it, received a CP of 1476.TO BE CLEAR: He chose to decline the 1460 Gengar, waited 15 minutes, then fought it again, which rerolled the CP. And, in this case, he received a better Gengar.THIS CAN BE REPEATED MULTIPLE TIMES IN EACH RAID. You just need enough people to run the experiment over and over. And each time you run it, whichever player is the one to finish the raid will NOT have a chance to reroll.Lastly, here’s how this can help reroll CP in legendary raids.Begin a legendary raid with 10 people.Get the boss to near death.Have 9 people close the app. DO NOT LEAVE THE GROUP!Have the remaining trainer finish the battle, go to the catch screen, and crash the catch screen.Upon reloading the remaining trainer will see the privileged number.If the privileged number is GOOD (perfect, or near-perfect), then everyone who closed the app can immediately click the gym. They each have a 1/9 chance of having the good CP. This is DRASTICALLY better odds than a random roll.If the privileged number is BAD, then everyone who closed the app can wait 15 minutes, before running the raid (and the whole process) again.YOU CAN REPEAT THIS UNTIL THE PRIVILEGED NUMBER IS GOOD OR THE RAID TIMER RUNS OUT!Images from the Gengar raid are uploaded here: http://ift.tt/2f1zKU4 are 5:Trainer 1’s original CP of 1468.Trainer 1 observing the privileged CP of 1460, which must have been Trainer 2’s CP.Trainer 1’s CP 1468 Gengar (after catching).Trainer 2’s catch screen following the second run, showing a CP of 1476.Trainer 2’s 1476.Trainer 2, in this case, is the person I’ve been working with the most on this stuff: /u/painfulplumberEDIT: The 15 minute wait time works, but we don't know if trainers MUST wait that long. We believe it's probably closer to 10, based on the fact that that's how long certain gym errors take to resolve. But we haven't run enough trials to see exactly how long the wait time needs to be. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2h7G2lx
