Poll: 100 IVs vs 98 IVs

What's your ratio? I have 3 with 100 IVs and 32 at 98 IVs. That seems like an odd distribution to me.

2 100%, 7 98%
The ratio should be 1:3. Yes, that's unusual.

From eggs and raids, 98s should be 3 times as common. From legendary raids, I've gotten 4 98s and 0 100s from maybe 175 raids.

Thanks. How did you figure the 1:3 ratio?

As far as raids go -- I'm at 192, 88 legendary. I have 2 98s and 0 100s. I've never even seen a 100 (at least of the ones I cared about like machamp, tyranitar, legendaries). I'm closing in on that 216 mark...

Only 1 possible combination adds up to 100%, where as 3 combinations add up to 98%. So assuming all combinations are equally likely, 98% is 3x as likely as 100%. (For eggs and raids, with each IV within 10-15, there are 216 combinations.)

15/15/15=100

15/15/14=98
15/14/15=98
14/15/15=98

3 ways to get 98 and only 1 to get 100.
3 to 1

You can only get 100% IV if hp, atk, and def are all 15. You can get 98% IV three ways - if hp is 14, if atk is 14, or if def is 14. Since IVs are random, 98% should be three times as common as 100%.

I have 8 100% and 28 98%... 1:3.5

So still pretty in line with the distribution probability.

100% - 5
98% - 17

Yes, about 1:3. Interesting.

Off the top of my head, I know I have at least four 98%s: Nidoking, Rapidash, Granbull, and Gyarados.

9 100IVs, but lost track of how many 98 (definitely not 27 though). The only 98s I care about are two dragons, machamp, Moltres, gengar and pidgey. Have probably transferred some commons without knowing. In my existing inventory there may actually be fewer 98s than 100s.

2 100s, 3 98s, a bunch of 96s.

I just got my 9th 100% today (from a Magmar raid I fought just to use the free pass), but I have no idea how many 98% pokemon I've gotten. I always appraise everything, but if it's not perfect or a type I care about, that's all the attention it gets. I hardly ever bother trying to figure out what the 3rd stat is on junk pokemon with two max stats, so I've probably transferred lots of them, and I don't know how many I still have right now.

I have 10 100s and 18 98s, but i'm sure i threw out a bunch of silly 98s (maybe even a 100 parasect as I thought i had two), i think i kept all my 100s. i know i got rid of a 98 dugtrio, a 98 stantler and a 98 dodrio, so
i guess at least 21...but i do throw away anything below level 20 also without even bothering to look -- i mean do people actually appraise every single mon?

32 100%
83 98%

My 100%´s distribution:
1 from raids (out of 500+ raids, somewhat below the curve)
3 catches (no map use, probably missed several with low CP that I did not check)
28 from hatches (about what could be expected)

13 - 100% (Tyranitar, Flareon, Gengar, Raichu, Clefable, Poliwrath, Golem, Hitmonchan, Noctowl, Macargo, Octillery, Kingdra, Donphan
23 - 98% (Dragonite, Gyarados, Blastoise, Venasaur Charizard, Ninetales, Rapidash, Rhydon(2), Electabuzz, Magneton, Magmar, Lapras, Typhlosion, Sudowoodo, Misdreavus,Gligar, Ursaring, Macargo, Mantine, Porygon2, Tyrogue, Miltank
I could have missed some.
I hatch a lot of eggs.

28 100% and 43 98%, so my ratio is 1:1.5 or 2:3. To be fair, a 1:3 distribution makes much more sense since more combinations can lead to the 98% distribution, but it all comes down to RNG. You also have to take into account that some of us used to through away 98% mons that didn't have ideal movesets back when TMs weren't available, while 100% mons were too painful to through away...

5 - 100% (2 from raid Vape Electabuzz)
15 - 98% (3 from raid 2 Zap, 1 champ - I've had a lugia and gengar 98% run on me)

So 5/15 (2/5) seems in line with the distribution although small sample size.
