Dear Niantic
The new raid bosses are f***ed up. Some of the T2 Raids are stronger then the new T3 Azumarill. Also some really good T2 and T3 raids are gone that we would actually use passes on, like Eggexutor and Zam. Way to go Niantic, adding more shitty raid bosses. At least try to fix the EX raid system instead, or maybe update your maps.
Thanks, Alpha

They should have included a small change for its ability (Huge Power: double attack stat) when they converted its base stats. Doubling its base physical attack stat before stat conversion would bring its PoGo base attack up from 112 to 181, and bring its max CP up from 1503 to 2319.
That boost would not be enough to make it competitive, but would allow it to be a fun defender.
On one side, this sounds like an interesting idea. On the other... weak trash will keep spawning more often than good stuff.
One thing that I'd like would be raid-like encounters in the wild, but with a twist: they could evolve midway on some occasions during the battle. So you find this magikarp boss, you think you got this... and then it turns into a freaking Chinese dragon. Cute fluffy eevee boss? It turns into an eeveeolution and starts to be a threat. Niantic's got the quest thing... could do this with the boss mechanics.
