Let's put ourselves in a situation. There are five minutes left until the end of the Raid with which you will get hold of one of the legendary Pokémon such as Moltres or Entei. Your group of friends or pure strangers are waiting for you to start. But the game is expected to be difficult. You have to refine as much as possible to ensure that the legendary does not win. And finish him off on time, of course. How to do it? Easy: choosing the best Pokémon team possible And, above all, with the most effective attacks. But would you know how? Here we explain it to you in a simple way.And with tools found within Pokémon GO.
A very complete search engine
Since the last update of Pokémon GO, the game has an important function for the most concerned trainers. It's about the pokemon search engine. Actually this function was already available from a few updates ago. What has changed is that, in addition to searching for the name of the Pokémon we have captured in the bag, it also allows you to search for their movements.
To search for a specific Pokémon, just type the first few letters of its name. Automatically the filter is applied to show the list of Pokémon that match those characters. A very fast way to find the desired Pokémon. But how to know the Pokémon that have a certain attack? The key is in the sign @
When using this symbol in front of an attack name, the filter works differently. Thus, only Pokémon that contain the attack written after the at sign are shown It doesn't matter if it's the fast attack or the charged attack. This filter does not make distinctions. It only helps to filter the Pokémon to find those that are being sought.
Double Search
The interesting thing, as they have discovered in the Reddit forums, is that this search engine goes one step further. It does not only allow you to search for a specific type of Pokémon or attack. In fact, it allows you to search for two at the same time. This further powers the search and helps make it faster and more convenient. Especially useful for finding those Pokémon that would serve the cause of the raid well by having two attacks of a certain type
To do this, you just have to write the search for an attack in the usual way. For example, we write “@gun” in reference to the Water Gun water attack. After the word we introduce the sign “&” and add a new attack. If we wanted to find two water attacks, for example, we could include the search “@pistola&@aqua”. Automatically the list of our Pokémon would be reduced to show only those who have a Water Gun and Aqua Cola. It's that quick and easy.
With this we would avoid having to click on each Pokémon or navigate one by one in the bag of these. Only with the aim of knowing what attacks they have. Something that subtracts valuable time from any coach. Especially if you are facing a test as important as a raid by a legendary Pokémon.
Search by Pokémon Type
Another extra point that must be added to this search engine is the search for Pokémon types In this way, not so skilled trainers and experienced ones will also have a useful resource for finding one guy or another without losing their minds. Nor having to learn the names and types of all these beings.
In this case you must also use the @ sign, but added from one of the existing types of Pokémon. Namely: Normal, Fighting, Flying, Poison, Ground, Rock, Bug, Ghost, Steel, Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Psychic, Ice, Dragon, Fairy, and DarkHowever, when looking for a type of Pokémon, it is mandatory to write the complete word and without mistakes.
