Why is the Max CP of pokemon are all inaccurate

I feel like every website I visit including gamepress all the CP charts are all higher than what the pokemon actual true MAX CP at 100% IV. When you hit level 38 you are only able to hit the power up button ONCE after that the power up button disappears at level 39 and 40 you cant power up anymore. So what i'm saying is that there is no such thing as 38.5, 39, 39.5, and 40 to power up pokemon. My 100% IV Dragonite maxes out at 3530CP I'm currently at Trainer level 39 when I level to 40 my Dragonites CP will still be the same at 3530. This website Dragonites max CP is 3581 it just looks like that your chart ends at level 39 but really its 38 in the game.

This just in, spoofer complains about resources available for PoGo

HaHa I agree, can you say "spoofer"

lol thanks for calling me a spoofer like nobody else is level 40 in the game legitly, its been out for nearly a year sorry i didnt take a 2 month break like everyone else.

Yeah your right, except I didnt take a break either 100 iv nite with 500 candy.

500 candy is not too much considering the egg hatch changes. Perhaps this guy is asking a valid question.

How many candies does it take to go from 30 to 38.5? If it was caught at 30.... Which is possible I got lucky and caught one at level 30.... not 100 iv tho

get a scanner/tracker, spend just one weekend in nyc, u can get ~80 candies easily even with walking

That's level 39, you can level a mon to 1.5 higher than your trainer level. Assuming you had him maxed when you were 37, nite at 38.5 you then became 38 and powered him once to 39 and it stopped.

This is the in game level cap. 39.5 and 40 don't exist in game, read a bit on this site and Silph road.

Ahh this helps thanks man!

I would like to add that there are players out there that have Pokemon with a higher CP than these days is obtainable. This was caused by a power up bug.

@Sebhes Right I know what you mean I actually have a friend that did the double or triple power up glitch trick before Niantic fixed that bug problem.and he's 100% IV Dragonite is maxed out at 3556 CP.. But i pretty much got my answered covered when looking at the CP charts the actual true max cp you can get is at lvl 39 on the gamepress website 39.5 and 40 do not exist (unless you did the double power up glitch trick before Niantic fixed that bug)

Okay, but where are you finding all those Dratini? I see them around but that's one maxed D-nite of the however many you've got and 500+ candies to spare

Reportedly the game servers will take power up inputs up to level 40, but there is a client-side bug that removes the power up button when the pokemon reaches level 39.

People have said that if they raise a pokemon to level 38.5, then log in on two extra devices putting all three on the pokemon's page, they can press the power up button once on each of the three devices to get the pokemon all the way to level 40.

I am only level 34, and it was several months ago that I last read about people doing this, so I don't know if it still holds true.
