What is Kira Pokémon, a new element in Pokémon GO? Pokemon Go" New Element: Kira Pokemon

It has been several months since the friend function was implemented. Do you "exchange" Pokémon with your friends?

When you exchange Pokémon with your friends, you can sometimes get a "Kira Pokémon. In this issue, we will introduce "Kira Pokémon.

What is Kira Pokémon? How can I get one?


When you exchange a Pokémon with a nearby friend, you may receive it as a "Kira Pokémon" (hereinafter called "Kira") in rare cases.

In particular, if you exchange a Pokémon that has been in the box for a long time, the probability of it becoming a "Kira" Pokémon increases.

Only one Pokémon, your friend's or your own, will become Kira Pokémon.

Advantages of "Kira Pokémon


Let's compare a regular Metagross with a "Kira" Metagross. The Kira Pokémon has a yellowish color in the number of Hoshi no Suna (Suna of Hoshi) required to strengthen it.

It is a little difficult to see because the Kira Pokémon has already been strengthened to the limit, but once it becomes Kira, the number of "Hoshi no Suna" required to strengthen it is reduced by half.

This has the advantage of making it easier to strengthen Pokémon.

I strengthened a regular Metagross to its limit.


Since a regular Metagross had room to be strengthened by the amount enclosed by the boxed line, I tested it by strengthening it to the limit to see how much "Hoshi no Suna" it would need.

The CP of Metagross before strengthening is 2150, and the amount of "Hoshi no suna" on hand is 643,851.

Let's strengthen it while keeping an eye on it.



After strengthening it a little, the required number of "Hoshi no suna" went up.

There is still plenty of room in the reinforcement gauge, but how much will I need in the end...?



When the gauge was half full, the number of "Hoshi no suna" required increased even more.



The "Kira" Metagross I mentioned earlier requires 4,000 Suna (Suna of the Hoshi no Suna) after being strengthened to its limit, and even if this Metagross exceeds that amount, there is still room for further strengthening.

The number of "Hoshi no Suna" and Danbar's candy I have is decreasing rapidly...! I am getting impatient.



Finally, I was able to strengthen it to the limit. As a result, I needed 9000 "Hoshi no suna" and 13 pieces of candy.

The number of candy needed does not change even after the "Kira" is obtained, but I would like to save at least the "Hoshi no Suna".

The amount of "Hoshi no Suna" used to strengthen the "Kira" to the limit was 169,000.

If it were a Kira Pokémon, the number of Hoshi no Suna needed would be cut in half, and that amount could be used to strengthen other Pokémon.

Searching for Kira Pokémon


Enter the word "Kira" from the magnifying glass in the box to see all the Kira Pokémon you have.



If you check Metagross in the Pictorial Book, it is marked as "Number of Kira Pokémon 1.

We hope to add more "Kira" of various kinds in the future.

Conclusion

To gain an advantage in battle, strengthening is essential!

If you strengthen various Pokémon, you will run out of "Hoshi no Suna" in no time, so I would like to increase the number of "Kira Pokémon" by exchanging many. (Sasahime)
