Buff notice and maintenance announcement for 26th July 2019
Figure speculations and analysis:
Winner of buffs: Garchomp and Magarena shares the trophy… Garchomp staple for dragon and ground decks?
My prediction:
- Mega Garchomp (UX)
- Zygarde 100% (UX)
- Landorus (UX)
- Meganium (EX)
- Landorus (EX)
- Tyranitar (EX) ????
- Cardily (EX/R)
- Tasreena (R)
- Steenee (R)
- Lileep (UC)
- Bounsweet (UC)
More predictions:
- [UX] Landerus Therian Forme
- [UX] Zygarde 100% ?
- [UX] Leafeon
- [UX] Mega Gharchomp
- [Ex] Landerus Incarnate Forme
- [Ex] Zygarde 10% ?
- [EX] Meganium
- [EX] Tsareena
- [EX] Tyranitar
- [R] Gliscor
- [R] Steenee
- [UC] Bounsweet
- [UC] Gligar
**Also Special Login Bonus:** Normal Groudon and 1 other [R] Figure
More predictions:
- Player Pass Only
- Landorus Therian (UX) Landorus Incarnate (EX)
- F2P Friendly
- Leafeon (UX) Mega Garchomp (UX) Mega Camerupt (UX) Zygarde 100% (UX) Camerupt (EX) Zygarde 10% (EX) Meganium (EX) Cradilly (R) Lileep (UC) Numel (UC)
- (Maybe a R Camerupt to match Sharpedo as a Login bonus)
More predictions:
- [UX] Mega Garchomp, Mega Camerupt, Landorus Therian, Leafeon
- [EX] Meganium, Tyranitar, Camerupt, Tsareena, Landorus Incarnate
- [R] Steenee, Gliscor
- [UC] Bounsweet, Gligar, Numel
Reasoning:
– Landorus forms are very obvious releases based off the recent team event and the other 2 forces of nature being released the last 2 banners.
– Leafeon [UX] pure grass type, it will be a while before another grass banner rolls around and they should finish releasing the [UX] eeveelutions soon.
– I think Zygarde forms should get their own banner that coincides with a major update (a la Necrozma), so im leaving them off of my list.
– Mega Garchomp and Camperupt 2 of the remaining 7 megas left to be released, maintains trend of 2 non-legendary, non eeveelution [UX] releases per banner. Garchomp already has an EX, while Camerupt will be a newcomer and as a fire type in addition to ground, will counter grass in some way.
– Chikorita and Bayleef recieve buffs, Meganium seems like the most obvious release of the banner aside from MGarchomp and Landorus. It was also leaked
– Tyranitar, while not ground type, has pre-evos that are ground and its Mega was buffed. Notorious for Earthquake among other ground moves. Maintains trend of current [R] figure being re-released as an [EX]. (Side Note: Hydregion would be left as the only already released pseudo-legendary left to be released as an [EX]. With Jangmo-o and Hakamo-ohaving been leaked, I think we should see Hydregion [EX] and Kommo-o [EX] in the near future)
– Bounsweet line also pure grass type (see reasoning for Leafeon). First 2 evolutions in line leaked here and here
– Gligar and Gliscor thrown in just for the hell of it.
Random Predictions for future banners:
Psychic/Dark – Slowbro and Mega + Slowking, Meditite line and Mega, Hydregion [EX] (this is part of why I put ttar in this month’s prediction, to keep it seperate from another dark type to-be-rereleased pseudo-legendary)
Fighting/Normal – Buneary line and Mega, Pidgey line and Mega, Jangmo-o line
Mega Audino screams “event mon” to me.
