reddit.comCan I ask for someone that doesn’t have carbink what can I sub in?

I'm not 100% sure honestly, I used my Carbink the whole way up the ladder. What's on your team right now?
3
I’ve been using frost/golbat/toxicroak

Idk if I would replace anything, that sounds pretty solid. Seems like it would struggle against lead Carbink though.
2
Dang. I thought I was doing okay hitting Ace. I had no idea the rankings go this high.
2
They go even higher, Legend starts at 3000.
2
Congratz! May I know what are the ivs of each pokemon?
2
Golbat: 4/14/14
Azumarill: 0/14/11
Carbink: 6/14/14
All fairly high rank, but I didn't really run into any situations where IVs were the only reason I won/lost.

This might be a dumb question but how come your carbink’s CP is at 1497? My maximum limit is 1430 (currently at 1152) and I am at level 39.

Mine is powered up with XL candy up to level 49. What are the IVs on your Carbink?
2
Atk 1/ Def 15/ Sta 15. Pokegenie says it only has good IV. I thought the lower the attack the better it is. Oh well.

It's a general rule of thumb, but isn't always the case. Really bulky and low base stat pokemon like Carbink need some amount of Attack IVs to reach the 1500 cap. It looks like your Carbink only reaches 1447 CP even at level 50.
That doesn't make bad, though. I did most of the cup with an underleveled Carbink at like 1420 CP, and only powered it up later by using RCXLs.

Thanks for your respone. XL candy is very rare though and I could only level it to 1230CP without XL candy. I guess, I just have to keep it until there’s an event in the future where Carbink becomes populous in spawn areas

Nice! Keep pushing you will surely hit legend at that rate
Thanks for believing in me!! But it probably won't happen, it really is all Halloween Cup since I started at 1900 :')
We still have a month left . If you climbed from 1900 in the span of two weeks then you are fine.
