Dragon Breath, Dragon Claw, and Dragon Pulse are apparently now all legacy moves for Dragonite.

Arguably Snorlax's best defensive charge move Body Slam is also a legacy move.

On the plus side: easily the two worst charge moves for good pokemon (Twister for Gyarados and Bulldoze for Arcanine) are legacy now.

Catch an evolved mon and you get extra candy and dust.  First evolutions get +2 candy.  Second evolutions get +7 candy.  So, if you catch a Dragonite or Charizard or Feraligatr, it's 10 candies now.

Yeah, about 30% of my buddy distance logged has been with Lapras.

Though my biggest stardust pit are my FIVE Con/Psy Exeggutor. Between those 5 and my 96% Poliwrath I've probably got close to 3/4 of a million in dust invested in defenders I'll never use again.

Too bad there's not some kind of refund (even if just a partial) for dust spent on pokemon Niantic nerfs and pretty much renders useless.

Forgive my ignorance, but what does legacy mean in this regard?

It means it's a move that can no longer be learned by a specific pokemon, but if your pokemon already has that move then it's grandfathered in.

I was looking at some of the gen 2 'mons and there certainly are some weird ones.

This is Shuckle:



It doesn't evolve from anything nor does it evolve into anything.  Here are it's stats:

Max CP: 300

Attack: 17

Defense: 396 (easily the highest in the game)

Stamina: 40

This is my favorite out of all the ones I saw in gyms today

Anyone who has battled in a gym within the past 24 hours will have undoubtedly noticed that all the "quick" quick moves are significantly slower. While most of the moves are more powerful this allows for fewer charge moves to be used on offense so those Snorlax and especially Blissey defenders will be even harder to take down.

On the plus side this has essentially killed the bubblestrat tactic.

Saw a person on FB comment that he had acquired 4x of the special items thru 2,000 Pokestop spins.

Then I remarked on how the dude has absolutely no life because he already has 81 of the new Pokemon...

We hit quite a few last night.  Wife and I haven't really played in a while, so we were low on balls.  Went and drove (I drive, she spins) a local loop 5 or 6 times, so maybe a hundred stops for one steel?

I don't know about "rare" (really depends on your area), but Blissey is certainly elite.

I was training against a 2,400 Blissey with my 3,300 DB/DC Dragonite and when I finally beat her the timer was down to about 20 seconds and my dragon had only about 1/4 of his health left.

If a 2,400 Blissey was that hard I do not look forward to having to take down 3,000+ ones.

I use this one.

It's good for general info, but I do think some of their ratings for pokemon and movesets are a little off. For example: anyone that's battled Snorlax enough knows that ZH/Earth is a better defensive moveset than Lick/HB, but they have Lick/HB being significantly better.  

Use it as a general guide, but put more stock in your own experience when determining which movesets are best.

If you don't do the name trick and you don't do the 10 km buddy trick you won't get any of the gen 2 Eeveelutions.

Make an Eevee your buddy, walk 10 km, then evolve it.  You'll get one of the gen 2 Eeveelutions and depending on whether it's day or night you'll get a Espeon or Umbreon.

I haven't tried it personally, but a lot of people are claiming it's worked for them.
