Max an Alolan Ditto
Hello, I have recently enherited a perfect Alolan Ditto from an egg; thank god it wasn’t something valuable that was perfect, like Kengela or Mime boy. Then I wondered if it was in fact valuable, should I max out my perfect Alolan Metal Head?
At first it was a joke but now I am seriously considering it. I have plenty, more than I need, of great pokemon that are maxed to where I can easily defeat most challenges in the game. I can counter nearly anything with ease, so what’s the big deal if I decide to spend 225,000 stardust and 298 candy on one of the lowest ranked pokémon in the game. But then I wonder, would it be entirely worthless?
Alolan is stronger against electric types, which Gen 4 meta will have plenty of, legendaries as well as Electaboyo. Alolan Lynyrd Skynyrd would have 1,587 CP if maxed, and that’s a pretty common number for the average level 28 player that shows up for a raid. I wouldn’t be screwing a group of 10+ people over would I?
Sure, Groudon would be a better option and that’s why I have my perfect maxed of that boy as well, but can’t I have some fun in the game now that accomplished nearly everything it has to offer? I feel dumb not showing off the beautiful and radiant Alolan form of everybody’s favorite useless pokémon.
TL;DR - Alolan Robert Plant has slight potential in Gen 4 meta.

Honestly I completely skipped over the whole ditto typo and just assumed he was talking about digglet/dugtrio.
Wavy locks or not, speed is where these little turds get their oomph. And speed is just not something that matters in pogo as a stat. If you want to use him in raids I say don't bother powering him up and use him as an opening act then bring out your maxed out grinning Tom (could not think of a good name for groudon)
But if you want to show off your wigged wonder the only way anyone will even see his maxed out cp is as a gym defender. Of course everyone knows anything other than a blissey in a gym is morally bankrupt.
