Meanwhile, Articuno decides to spawn at the park... but it was raining cats and dogs outside. Just my luck.

So the crap bird is next then the one we really want is last.......SMH.

Moltres is Crap bird? What T H are you smoking?
You don't want it that's fine, then be my guest don't catch it

Yes, fire flying. Double damage from Golems trainers been collecting and powering up while resisting its entire line up of fire based attacks. Should I also mention the tons of vaperon trainers were collecting prior gym rework to use as defenders that are now converted to attackers? They chewed through Tyranitars, they will....... chew through Moltres just the same.

Trainers can also easily get and army of lvl 20 vaperons by doing raids to easily take it down.

Zapdos is the only Gen1 legendary bird without double weaknes and the most usable one to obtain other strong pokemon from raid battles such a vaperon, and battle gyms with gyrados defenders.

Ill catch it for the dex entry, but as for using it? I think ill pass as I haven't encountered any defenders in my mteta that required a fire pokemon when I could use a better alternative to take it down.

Lol all you have to say is that it is a slightly better Charizard. Can't be used as a defender, so that is irrelevant.

Any word on when Lugia disappears? Anyone else miffed they're making the Legendaries temporary? ?

I'm wondering this too since they have given dates on the birds will be around. But earlier on they were saying in a newsletter they would continue to be available in raids throughout the year.

My guess (pure speculation) is that they will continue but be rare compared to the incredible rate of spawn currently. They are advertising the increased rate dates

Is this the first time Niantic made a well timed early announcement of what's to come?

Very nice. It seems they may have learned a bit about better communication with their customers. This is a great thing

Not to not pick, but they have the dates overlapping. So on Monday July 31 they are showing both Articuno and Moltres. I wonder if one will stop in the middle of the day and the other start, or if we will have a full day of both Articuno and Moltres.

The reason I point this out..because raids do not run 24 hrs a day, it would have made sense for Articuno to end at the end of day July 30, and Moltres to start the morning of July 31.
