I understand that a skill will be 2 times more powerful (ex. Extra ingredients 6 is now 12 extra ingredients), but what does the other part mean? Is it different than the regular 2X ?
#How exactly does the Raikou main skill work?

Where did you got this that the skill will be 2 times more powerful?
It's not like that
These are all extra helps added
Like if the base helps is 3x, and you have 5 different electric mons
You will get 4x helps added, so you will get total 7x helps
7x helps from each of the 5 mons
night ferry
Oh, so what the main skill shows plus the multiplier for qualifying mons is the real multiplier?
rugged bay
Yeah, correct
night ferry
Ok, I have a skill level up M at 25, so if I have 4 other electric types, it will be 7x
night ferry
Thanks
Also, with the skill multiplier, if I have a pokemon with Extra Helpful Lv 3, or 7x more things, does that mean I get 49 more things?
Picture for reference
rugged bay
Oh, nah
It doesn't work like that
Extra Helpful is just a random mon
It will make that mon give 7x helps
Raikou procs on everyone
All mons will give 7x helps
It won't be 49x
night ferry
Oh, so it's this skill, but for electric types?
rugged bay
Raikou's skill works on every mon
It's just you get extra helps if you keep electric mons in team
So like 3x base if no electrics
And 7x if 5 electric mons
night ferry
Hey, can we get in a call? I am a better listener than visual understander
rugged bay
Nah, sorry, I can't
I don't VC
night ferry
Ok
But let's see if I get it
So it already gives all mons 3 extra ingredients/berries by itself, but with more and more electric types, the mons will give the respective more berries and ingredients in relation to the chart
rugged bay
Yeah, correct
rugged bay
Yeah, that's good
night ferry
Sometimes, it seems like pokemon give more than the 7 extra that the skill should give in the picture, is that due to the sub skills or the nature of the pokemon the main skill activated?
rugged bay
Nah, I don't think so that should happen
Are counting every berry as a single help or every ingredient?
night ferry
Yes
rugged bay
Like a Raichu drops 3x berries, it's per help
So 7x helps will make it drop 21 berries, not 7
A pokemon's drop is always per help
Those helps are given 7x times instantly
It could also drop ings
So like 18 berries and 1 apple could also happen
night ferry
Oh, the amount it shows next to the berry picture?
rugged bay
Oh, the amount it shows next to the berry picture?
Yeah
Or either the ing rolls it shows
Here are examples of how 7x rolls can happen
- 21 berries
- 18 berries, 1 Apple
- 15 berries, 2 Apples
- 15 berries, 1 Apple, 2 Ginger
night ferry
That explains a lot, because my Venusaur has 7 honey normally
rugged bay
It should be either 2 or 5 Honey
night ferry
Oh yeah, 2 for the first, 5 for the second
rugged bay
Yeah, hmm
night ferry
Wait, is the x7 help for berries mostly?
rugged bay
Nah, even ings can drop
It varies for every mon
If a mon has like high ingredient rate, for an ingredient mon
It will drop like 4x of those helps as ingredients and only 3x helps as berries
For some mon it could be like 6x helps are berries and 1x help is ingredient
night ferry
Ah ok, I think I get it now
rugged bay
Nice
night ferry
Thanks for your help
night ferry
What electric type do you hope they add next to make Raikou even more useful
rugged bay
Wish they add Pachirisu but they already added Dedenne
night ferry
I hope for Helioptile / Heliolisk
night ferry
Yes, that would be great
