Yeah, I believe you're misunderstanding me. I'm aware you can get coins from leaving pokemon in gyms. What im talking about is the necrozma raid, for example. There's no way to join that raid remotely through pokegenie without buying whatever premium pass.
Yeahhh... I wasn't gonna say anything but, seems they is talking about a third party app purchase and not pogo... I think pogo is still free if you want it to be.
You did not have to pay too remote raid Necrozma. Unless you wanted to, all that gets "introduced" during go fest gets given to Japan, Spain and New York (ie where the go fest is) and then later gets released to the general public, Necrozma is going to general public in July for global go fest.
Buying the pokemon on eBay? You can go there and pay someone money and they agree to become best friends with you and then trade the pokemon. I've never done it but I'm guessing they use a location spoofer to get close to you.
But there is too much doubt here. I've got 3 of the damn things, it was 5 years ago when they came out. I'd gladly give one away to family.
Idk, I'm old enough to be an uncle and I got 3 of them. 7/11/2019-7/27/2019 was the catch range.
I was still in my 30s during that. If I had a niece/nephew who was into the game I'd totally hook them up with one.
2018 and older and 25. It was increased in December from 2017 and older and 10. So it will likely increase again in December 2024 to include 2019 and older.
You are correct. Any pokemon 2017 or 2018 currently has at least 80-90% lucky trade opportunities. So OP bragged about 20 lucky. I have 35+ mons from 2017. Does anyone want to trade for guaranteed lucky?
There's an online game called "The Uncle Who Works for Nintendo" it really creepy. Your story reminded me of that. That's why I asked. It's kind of a joke, and it's kind of a reference.
A Tapu Lele š I need to give him something better next time though.
I just don't have very many legendaries to trade since I'm not usually around enough people to defeat them.
We are Best Friends. And I think we had increased chances because the Pokemon is from 2019, plus being best friends helps. The Pokemon we traded were a 1* and the other was either a 1* or 2*, I wasn't really paying attention.
I'm not entirely sure, but you get increased chances if you trade with someone that is a best friend. And I know that Pokemon that were caught a long time ago have higher chances, too.
Makes sense, older pokemon have a higher chance of becoming lucky, the older the pokemon the more likely it is to become a lucky trade. My partner and I traded and got 4 lucky pokemon in a row because we were trading our oldest pokemon. Pretty awesome lucky tho congrats, I never got one of those either
It was from an event, I wanna say it was a pokemon movie release. It was only around in July of 2019.
I got no Mewtwo except the armored type...which means I got 3 Mewtwo
Welcome to the club, same here. Even with the CP & HP stats. 1821cp 136 hp respectably/ lucky and hundo. Only difference mine was caught on 7/28/2019. Got mines via a trade too.
![gif](giphy|FY8c5SKwiNf1EtZKGs|downsized)
Great trade! I'd definitely say that's better than my prize trade when we mirror trades shiny Mewtwo and it came out Hundo. A perfect Armoured Mewtwo is certainly better than Shundo regular Mewtwo. Congratulations on your awesome acquisition!
Pokemon go has become such a drag its ridiculous. Between battling raids with folks who can't play or there not being anyone to raid with to SV raids where folks don't have a strategy its become more of a chore.
It's okay and can be annoying to fight against in Ultra league, but to use it there you wouldn't want a hundo. This one's dex filler but OP seems happy.
Call me a skeptic, but I have a hard time believing this was just a random tradeā¦especially with someone who youāre likely Best Friends with. Why would you risk it with arguably the most sought after Pokemon, when you could just wait until you hit Lucky Friends? I mean, if itās legit, that was pretty ballsy, and the risk paid off.
Im not sure i would have put that much thought into it. So this probably would be something i would do with the kids on my street. Im always saving extra legendaries for them. When we cross paths, we trade. I've never considered waiting to be lucky friends.
Interesting. I guess whatever works for the individual. But with THAT particular version of Mewtwo, to me, itās a unique situation. Random legendaries come and go. And unless those street kids are Best Friends, they dumping a shitload of dust on those trades. To each, their own.
Yeah, I've noticed reading these threads - Everyone plays the game for different aspects. Im the one that plays for the cuteness, and i like collecting postcards. I just like the smile they get when they get something they couldn't otherwise get.
I never think to power up or evolve. I seem to only do it when there is a task. So, I've got 5 million bits of dust burning a whole in my pocket.
I sort of agree but if the uncle played during the event, he probably has several. I know Iāve traded away the ones I had to other folks. I only have one now.
My only point was, why risk getting a shitty IV, on one of the rarest āmon in the game, when OP has the opportunity to make the trade when hitting Lucky Friends with his uncle? But, I guess itās just me.
Well my uncle is known as the crazy uncle for a reason lol
Whenever I visit him he offers to trade me a Pokemon of my choosing since I used to live in areas where it was difficult to play. This time I asked for an armored mewtwo and he said sure, we did the trade during dinner on the spot after I asked and it just happened :D It was the only trade we did that day, and yeah we're at the best friends level.
I don't know if this affects it, but the Pokemon were also caught at far distances and the Mewtwo was caught in 2019 which I think also gives a higher chance of it being a lucky trade
It is from a tie-in event where Pokemon was releasing the movie, Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back -Evolution (which is just a remake of the original Pokemon movie, Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back.) In the event, you could do raid battles to catch Pokemon from the movie, such as Clone Pikachu, Clone Charizard, Clone Venusaur, Clone Blastroise, and Armored Mewtwo.
I doubt it. It came back once or twice already, but not since late 2019 or 2020 I believe. Best chance if you want them is to try and find someone to trade them to you.

Can your uncle adopt me?
He might accept you as a niece/nephew š
That doesnāt guarantee a mewtwo, he only trades those with his nephews and nieces.
Haha well so far this holds true since he doesn't have kids.
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
Hes the cool uncle then
This is crazy omg congrats !!
Thanks!
How does one get this mewtwo?
By asking their uncle, obviously
Goddammit. I am the uncle.
Can I get that mewtwo?
Did you know you are my favourite uncle? ā¤ļø
That's a given. The other options are preeeeeetty weak.
I had to do more than just ask.
I believe these were in Raids a long time ago for an event. Armored mewtwo
it was a limited-time event that you had to play during that specific timeframe to get the research for, iirc. I also missed it :\
You did not need a ticket. It was a general F2P event.
Before pogo was pay to play. Back in the good Ole days lol
I'm level 50 and havent spent a dime... Seems free to me
I meant specifically for mega and ultra raid passes you have to buy if you don't live where the events take place for rare pokemon.
You can raid for free too. Did you know you can get 50 poke-coins a day?
Yeah, I believe you're misunderstanding me. I'm aware you can get coins from leaving pokemon in gyms. What im talking about is the necrozma raid, for example. There's no way to join that raid remotely through pokegenie without buying whatever premium pass.
Switch to GO Raid Party, thank me later
Thatās literally one monā¦.That will be available everywhere later in the year. Youāll survive š
Yeahhh... I wasn't gonna say anything but, seems they is talking about a third party app purchase and not pogo... I think pogo is still free if you want it to be.
You did not have to pay too remote raid Necrozma. Unless you wanted to, all that gets "introduced" during go fest gets given to Japan, Spain and New York (ie where the go fest is) and then later gets released to the general public, Necrozma is going to general public in July for global go fest.
I have a feeling it was Uncle EBay but still a cool mon haha
How does that work
I actually have never done it myself so canāt tell you, sorry!
Its alright. I wasn't going to anyway. Was just curious. I've never spent more than 10$ on this game. And that seems likely to stay like that forever
What is Uncle EBay?
Buying the pokemon on eBay? You can go there and pay someone money and they agree to become best friends with you and then trade the pokemon. I've never done it but I'm guessing they use a location spoofer to get close to you. But there is too much doubt here. I've got 3 of the damn things, it was 5 years ago when they came out. I'd gladly give one away to family.

$15 on eBay or find someone willing to trade you one lol
eBay
If you trade something 3+ years old then it has a 20% chance of going lucky. But the fact it went hundo is impressive. Grats OP!
Itās guaranteed if you have less than 20 lucky PokĆ©mon.
I have more than 20 lucky Pokemon
It's not about 20 lucky PokƩmon, you have per account 20 or 25 assured lucky trades. If you trade a PokƩmon which is from 2017 or older, at least that's the mark I know it might be 2018. Then the trade is gonna be lucky unless one of those accounts used all of his legacy lucky trades already l. Edit: idk about the 20%
2018 and older and 25. It was increased in December from 2017 and older and 10. So it will likely increase again in December 2024 to include 2019 and older.
You are correct. Any pokemon 2017 or 2018 currently has at least 80-90% lucky trade opportunities. So OP bragged about 20 lucky. I have 35+ mons from 2017. Does anyone want to trade for guaranteed lucky?
Thanks! And thanks for the info!
My dad traded me one and it went from a 3 star to a 0 star
Oh no :') it's annoying when that happens š but at least you got a cool pokemon!
Yeah
Does this uncle work for Nintendo?
No but that would be cool š
There's an online game called "The Uncle Who Works for Nintendo" it really creepy. Your story reminded me of that. That's why I asked. It's kind of a joke, and it's kind of a reference.
Ohh, I'll have to look it up :P
Is Bob your uncle?
Who's Bob?
Bob's your uncle
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[Screenshot-20240619-095840.png](https://postimg.cc/06Pnhrk6) Yep, it was...
How does it feel to be arceus's favorite?
Like I can become the very best that no one ever was.
Wanna trade uncles š
Ahahha don't really wanna give mine up š
Now THAT is a BRAG! Forget girlfriends. This is what you want amirite xD?! If everything fails, you have a nice uncle at least.
Thats kinda gay
Ha, ha xD! I'll guess only you got the joke (+3 people), and the rest just wanna shut up about.
r/angryupvote
What were it's stats before the trade?
I'm not sure, I didn't check. I just know it wasn't a 4* beforehand Do the stats beforehand affect the trade?
No
Awesome! Congratulations š
Thanks!
GG
Oh my goodness šš CONGRATS!!
Ty!!
I remember when he was in raids and there was never anybody else near the gym to join. Not many played in our area back then š¬š¬
Same :( that's why I couldn't get it back then
Lol I remember how little interest there was in this since Armored Mewtwo's it's stats were so much worse than regular Mewtwo
I hate you and your uncleā¦just sayinā
W unc
I wish we got the classic armored Mewtwo
Same, that one looked sick
They need to add that one like ASAP lol
Oh nice, I caught one just three days later.
What did you give him?
A Tapu Lele š I need to give him something better next time though. I just don't have very many legendaries to trade since I'm not usually around enough people to defeat them.
How did you get a hundo lucky? Did you both trade 3+ stars and what friend level? Thanks
We are Best Friends. And I think we had increased chances because the Pokemon is from 2019, plus being best friends helps. The Pokemon we traded were a 1* and the other was either a 1* or 2*, I wasn't really paying attention.
Wow so luck of the trade
Damn. Nice.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Well I do need more Mewtwo candy so maybe I should š¤ but thank you!
My lord lol
Jealous of your luck
That is so š
Now you should go play the lottery š
Haha I'll give it a shot
How do you do a lucky trade?
Keep gifting with Best friends. At some point they become Lucky friends & your next trade is lucky. (One way to do it that you control.)
I'm not entirely sure, but you get increased chances if you trade with someone that is a best friend. And I know that Pokemon that were caught a long time ago have higher chances, too.
Makes sense, older pokemon have a higher chance of becoming lucky, the older the pokemon the more likely it is to become a lucky trade. My partner and I traded and got 4 lucky pokemon in a row because we were trading our oldest pokemon. Pretty awesome lucky tho congrats, I never got one of those either
Dang that's a lot of luck you guys got! Hopefully those were some good Pokemon too!
As hell oh my god dude nice
Dang dude....that's awesome!
How did u make it look like that!????? That shit is a monster!!!!
It was from an event, I wanna say it was a pokemon movie release. It was only around in July of 2019. I got no Mewtwo except the armored type...which means I got 3 Mewtwo
Seriously how u get him to look like that
It came out in a couple events a long time ago. The last event happened in 2019 :( So there's a very low chance it'll be available in raids again
Dang thatās crazy. Massive W
Daaaaammmnnnn...
I have a hardcore pogo uncle too but he never trades me these š
Aw š but I'm sure it's nice to have a powerful raid buddy if he's that good!
Oh for sure, he enjoys raiding and collecting mons the most!
Nice!
How did it get the cool armor?
It was an event that happened a couple of times. The last time it was available was in 2019
Welcome to the club, same here. Even with the CP & HP stats. 1821cp 136 hp respectably/ lucky and hundo. Only difference mine was caught on 7/28/2019. Got mines via a trade too. ![gif](giphy|FY8c5SKwiNf1EtZKGs|downsized)
Thanks!! That's pretty sick!
Welcome to the hundo armored mewtwo gang!
No way that's awesome!
Holyš®
Awesome! What were the stats prior to the trade?
Either 1* or 2* I wasn't paying much attention
Congrats and gfy.
Trash ivs delete it
You're right I should
I never comment on these but holy shit bro! That's a sickk mew!ššš„š„š GGS!! Coolest uncle in town š. Congratulations š š„³š„³
Thank you!!
Is that mewtwo rare? I played PokĆ©mon when it came and and only recently. My step son wants this exact mewtwo and Iāve got one.
Apparently it is rare. I just wanted one cuz I regretted not being able to get one when it was out, and I don't think it'll be coming back to raids.
Holy forking shirt
nice! The only lucky I have is a cp 12 krabby. Be grateful you can use yours šš
Haha a lucky Kingler would be cool though!
Huh
much hate to you for my dream poke šš mines like 89% lucky though so I should get over myself. congrats!
Thank you hahha yours isn't so bad either!
Itās also a LUNDO
Goat uncle
DAMN
U R a Lucky bastardš
Whoa!!!
Is your uncle from another world? Only explanation
Awesome!!! Congrats!!!!!
Awesome
Iām so incredibly jealous. I just want a single armored mewtwoā¦ but Iād love this š
Great trade! I'd definitely say that's better than my prize trade when we mirror trades shiny Mewtwo and it came out Hundo. A perfect Armoured Mewtwo is certainly better than Shundo regular Mewtwo. Congratulations on your awesome acquisition!
Hey you got a pretty cool one too!! But thank you :)

I have some willing to trade if you can fly
Does anyone have an extra they wanna trade to me please?!
If u trade something caught in 2016 the first 10 r guaranteed lucky
Pokemon go has become such a drag its ridiculous. Between battling raids with folks who can't play or there not being anyone to raid with to SV raids where folks don't have a strategy its become more of a chore.
Oh and never, literally never found a mew or mewtwo or anything of value.
I'm pretty sure all players are guaranteed a Mew from completing one of the first research tasks you get
Can you invite me to the red bird?
What are the likely chances that we'll get to encounter an Armored Mewtwo again?
Wild. All my uncle gave me was ptsd and herpes
What the hell is that armor??? I knew Mewtwo had a suit but it certainly didn't look like this!

Unc got dat speciality
Itās lucky because itās 5 years old. Do you have more than 20 lucky PokĆ©mon?
no, guaranteed lucky currently works for pokemon from 2016 to 2018, the mewtwo is from 2019
Yeah I have more than 20 lucky pokemon
Too bad Armored MewTwo is trash lol.
Is it not just the same as regular Mewtwo?
It's okay and can be annoying to fight against in Ultra league, but to use it there you wouldn't want a hundo. This one's dex filler but OP seems happy.
True, my original post is too harsh. If OP is happy then that's all that matters.
I don't really care if a Pokemon is trash š I just like the ones that look cool lol I'm that kind of player
Call me a skeptic, but I have a hard time believing this was just a random tradeā¦especially with someone who youāre likely Best Friends with.

Congrats, dude! Iām jealous.š©
Why is it (one of) the most sought after? I also caught one back then, does it have some noteworthy value?
Why does it have armor?
It is from a tie-in event where Pokemon was releasing the movie, Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back -Evolution (which is just a remake of the original Pokemon movie, Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back.) In the event, you could do raid battles to catch Pokemon from the movie, such as Clone Pikachu, Clone Charizard, Clone Venusaur, Clone Blastroise, and Armored Mewtwo.
Think weāll ever get this event again?
I doubt it. It came back once or twice already, but not since late 2019 or 2020 I believe. Best chance if you want them is to try and find someone to trade them to you.
I was so annoyed, I started in 2019 and wasn't able to get one..
Oh thatās SICK
