Got a Pinsir with Rock Smash as Fast
ReplyDeleteI've got one with fury cutter as its Fast and submission as Charge
ReplyDeleteI have a Pinsir with Fury Cutter and Vice Grip.
ReplyDeleteI caught one in Solana Beach yesterday. Someone was using incense. Fury cutter and vice grip.
ReplyDeleteMine has Fury Cutter and X-Scissor
ReplyDeleteFury Cutter is a must have as your fast attack, due to STAB (same type attack bonus, x1.25) and high energy generation, it's miles better than the atrocious Rock Smash.
ReplyDeleteSubmission can be useful at times, but due to the Pokemon Go mechanics of super effective attacks only doing x1.25 the damage (so as much as STAB), X-Scissor is the better option overall.
During a normal cycle of 3.3 seconds (3x Fury Cutter, 1x X-Scissor) Pinsir dishes out 11.8 DPS. Combine this with Pinsir's average CP and overall it's just an average mon.
Got tons from Japan on holiday one was 800
ReplyDeleteI found one sitting at my computer desk. My phone started to vibrate, and there it was. Easy catch. I was surprised that such a rare pokemon popped right in front of me.
ReplyDeleteYay, got mine with Fury Cutter and X-scissor
ReplyDeleteHatched one in Boise ID with 818 CP, Rock Smash and X-Scissor
ReplyDeleteYes, agreed that fury cutter is much better on offense. Rock Smash is better on defense. He spawns in my area like pidgeys (Hudson County NJ) so I have 5 of them 1300-1700 and a whopping 326 candy
ReplyDeleteThe problem is he's just not very good. I guess he's useful against Exeggcutor or Slowbro but that's pretty much it. Bug moves being bad against Fairy/Fire/Flying/Poison pretty much covers the top 80% of gym defenders. Hopefully he gets more useful in future updates as they add in dark mons, and more psychic mons.
He's pretty easy to catch, though. So there's that...
Got one at LVL 20, CP 1154...
