Should I max out a Lugia? Don't see why but am bored.

So I've yet to get an ex pass and am really bored and considering powering up my level 30.5. 98IV Lugia considering I have 975 rare candy and 2.2 mil dust. If you were in my position, would you guys do this?

Already have 4 max Ttars, 2 drag, 2 vapes, 3 Rhydons, 1 Zapdos and 1 Raikou and a boatload of other attackers and defenders.

I would, especially considering how many reserves you have and the team you have already maxed. I really enjoy using both of my L30 Lugias and would take one of them all the way right now if I had that many candies and stardust.

What do you use your Lugia for? It looks cool for sure but gyms are pretty trivial and not sure about it's role in raids.

Yeah my other attackers have taken care of him, looking for an excuse to power up something but this meta is so limiting.

I would say do it! But you shouldn't listen to me. That's why I have no dust and you have 2 mil!

Yes... Go ahead...

I got 2.3m dust and not many high iv and useful mons to power up.

I'm thinking to power up a perfect Scizor with double bug moves. Do you have any experience with Scizor? Is it useful?

I have a 100Iv one as well and have powered up to 35, hoping to use it for Mewtwo but have not really used it yet.

I also have 98 lugia e/fs and I also maxed it out also. I used it for machamp solo and I would have to say lugia is mvp. If you are running into mewtwo with fb with small group u can charge tm it to sky attack and use it as an anchor.

Out of interest, what level/CP did you need to get it up to for soloing Machamp. I wanted to have a go at this but mine is just 96% L30 CP3063. How much higher do you think I'll need to go?

I have 2 perfect bug scizor and they do work against mewtwo. U can dodge mewtwo x-sissor dodge again. Scizor is so fast and fun. You can literally dodge everything. I maxed both of them out.

I very much like Lugia as an anchor. Has pretty good defensive typing (especially against fighting), great stats and decent attack.

Good for dodging with Extrasensory with the high energy gain, very low cooldown charge moves, and relatively fast quick moves.

DT/SA is my favorite for Neutralling other Psychics (Though Mewtwo takes the new crown for this, it isn't as tanky), Sky Attack is a wonderfully fast 2-bar.

Though its stats are often compared to Snorlax, its charge moves are all faster and its 2-bar gains STAB.

I maxed my 93% 14/13/15 Lugia, but then I came into two other 15 att 93% and a 14/15/14 96%. DT/SA is my favorite but after Mewtwo I may FTM to E.

I currently use it as a general anchor, for an anti-Focus Blast Mewtwo counter, and if I wanna take a gym and just click without looking at my phone. It has good duel ability and potion efficiency.

Overall my favorite Legendary. Makes a great anchor without sacrificing damage or being that "Blissey" guy.

This.

Lugia is the only legendary where I have taken two to level 30. One has ES and the other DT. I love using it.

Yes, do it! It's worth the investment the whole nine yards! Lugia tanks gym battles and raids insanely well!

my best lugia is 87%, 12/12/15. What should I do?? :(

Only managed to catch 2 lugia, the rest fled.

That's not a problem, Lugia's strength isn't in its attack.
Go ahead and power it up! A lot of people weren't able to get one and they're friggin' huge in a Raid or Gym battle.

The two I powered up are 91% (15a/14d/12s) and 80% (14a/10d/12s). They both perform beautifully. Yours will be fine, too. Power it up and enjoy.
