Bummed
I'm sitting in my office, can only see 3 gyms from here and one of them has an Alakazam sitting on it. I know that I can't solo it because I don't have enough firepower, (Both of my T'tar have IT/FB) and I also know that noone will be there if I walk the 10 minutes to get there.
I never done an Alakazam yet.

It's mostly the heat I don't like. The air is unbreathable out there. And I have no idea if I can solo the palm or not, so I'm kind of in for a huge disappointment if I cannot.
Lvl 26 and planning on using this team, so high chances of failure:
2073 Typhlosion E/OH
1920 Houndoom FF/FB
1518 Charizard FS/FB
1910 Cloyster FB/A (as backup, might work if palm is not a SB one)
1136 Umbreon FA/DP (might upgrade CP) OR 1483 Gengar H/Sludge Bomb.
My hopes of people coming out during this heat are fewer than them coming out when it's pleasant outside. And even then they never join any lvl 2 or 3 raids. Everything I've been in I was solo even in very populated places.
Weezing mopped the floor with my ground types and it got left at barely under 50% (heck I did a better job getting Jolteon to 50% with a crap team than on Weez with team of good counters).
Sadly no Flareon (or any of the main 3 Eeveeolutions). I am still hoping for a good enough Eevee to hatch (hatched 25 of them and found 5, only one was good enough to at least evolve into an Umbreon due to high def).
I happen to have an Arcanine with FF/FB but he's very low level, not sure if worth powering up. His only maxed stat is HP.
