Submit Feedback or Error

After 10 tries I finally got Counter Close Combat, went to nest and grinded hard using all my pinap berries and was able to evolve 4 more in hopes of C/DP, my outcome was 2 BP/CC and 2 BP/DP so that's 14 evolutions and 1 fighting move Machamp... I hate you niantic

Hha I had the same experience. I was very happy to have 450 candy after my trip to Santiago and then these trash move set.

I evolved a Machoke last night with Karate Chop + Dynamic Punch and I'm just going to keep him as a prestiger. I almost never see fighting types at home (I've caught 98, almost all when travelling, compared to over 8000 normal types, 5000 flying, etc) and I'm not risking scraping together the candy and getting something awful!

By the time you finally get C+DP, a "re-balancing" update is all it takes to ruin all your effort. I'm hoping for the ability to re-roll moves. The inflexibility in this game is retarded.

If they ever make BP relevant my attack team will be amazing although I highly doubt that

Retarded. Exactly the word I was looking for. I'm so sick of the moveset lottery.

I have evolved 4 machamps(3 since gen 2), every single one of them has bullet punch, and not a single DP. The best so far is BP/CC. I hate it, my 5th machamp is about 20 candies short, please give me a double fighting moveset next time.

Gamepress ranks BP/DP a grade B same as C/CC but honestly in my opinion they aren't even close, current game meta makes BP irrelevant

Ouch, I feel your pain!
I've evolved 5 Alakazam's and each one has had C with DG/SB! 650 candies down the drain.

For some reason I've been really lucky with 'em, even caught a 777 CP Abra (thankfully decent IV too) which accidentally got its final evolution at 11:11 am, I consider him my lucky charm. Had worse luck with some other 'mons tho.

Only managed one, C/HS. Guess it's decent enough.

Have you only evolved pokemons over 80%IV ?
Almost all my 80+IV mons get crappy movesets.
My only Machamp with C/CC has 73%IV. I've spent hundreds of candies in the process ...

Machamp movesets have been a pain
In my area they are quite common.
Before gen2 it took me 7 attempts to get kc cc what it was its best
After gen2 i evolved 5 non with c cc
Fortunatelly i can keep on trying

They are not common near me but when nest updates I try to find it and go at least twice, honestly I'm so over it I might just max my BP/DP and just ride with it to go along my only C/CC, I've literally spent over 1500 candies it's stupid think I'm done with the process

Niantic is moronic for its dependence on RNG. Poor design. Please fix it. Says me with my two double steel 95% Machamps.
