If I recall correctly Cresselia BF floor 5/5/5 is 1479. Eventually I’d like to trade with a lower level friend to try for 1500. I’m 14/14 catching them, 4 boosted...at the least I’ll run into someone that quickly trade a level 20 for a 25 (Mainly I do my special trade early, so not many random person trades when I see them)
Which legendaries are you trading for?
Since PvP's announcement, i've been noticing a lot more legendary trades in my discord, and not things like rayquaza and mewtwo, but the regi's cresselia and Giratina because of their pvp potential. (We have a really passionate fanbase of pokem here, we have main series, TCG and soon GO tournaments)
Which of the pvp potential legendaries are you guys going out for in trades? Personally im going for giratina, second favorite gen 4 dragon, so glad its got potential now.

Honestly anyone trading or spending any sort of resources on PVP is a moron.... We have no idea the mechanics of it .... when it’s arriving, what the rewards are going to be.... the only thing we know for sure is the Pokémon involved follow no known formula .... everyone needs to simmer down and wait to see what happens...
Should I power up a dragon instead? My 2nd Rayquaza isn't spectacular, so I'm fine leaving it at level 38 til I can get a shiny. Have 2 other max Dragonites, but have the Salamence in the party so I know when I might faint. Small mistakes mean nada, at some soon point a good number of us will have played everyday for 1000 days...impossible for a few days' actions to make any matter.
And how much stardust will you waste in the long run when you keep powering up mons based on speculation before you even have a chance to use them? Your choice how to play and if you get enjoyment from making 1490cp mons in advance, by all means go for it. But don't be surprised that some people are going to tell you that you shouldn't if you want to be efficient with your resources.
