'Pokemon GO' Debuts Aeroblast Lugia—Is it a Good Move?

"Pokemon GO's" Augmented Reality is back with new raids for early November to bring the legendary bird, Lugia, with a devastating new move called "Aeroblast" without the stats and power. The AR game's players are now speculating whether the move is excellent or powerful enough to face off other legendary entities in the mixed-reality world of "Pokemon GO."

Niantic's Augmented Reality (AR) game "Pokemon GO" offers players the experience to face-off against one of the most famous legendary birds in the series, Lugia. The bird brings a new move that is heavily-anticipated by gamers, the Aeroblast. The move is famous among the Pokemon Manga and game series on Nintendo consoles.

The extraordinary move is native to Pokemon's legendary bird and may even be a unique and exclusive attack by Lugia. "Aeroblast" is a flying attack move that releases a barrage of furious wind from the bird's wings, dealing massive damage and super effectivity.

Aeroblast Lugia: Pokemon Raids on Animation Week Event

According to DBL Tap, Niantic announced the new Animation Week event on "Pokemon GO" Live's website, marking the raid events from Friday, November 6 at 8:00 a.m. until Thursday, November 12 at 10:00 p.m. local time. The almost week-long event would feature Aeroblast Lugia as the big boss on raids.

Aeroblast Lugia would be waiting on top of five-star raids for players to challenge the bird and go on a showdown of power and skills from various Pokemons on the trainer's six-man line-up. The decisive move "Aeroblast" would also be Lugia's special move that has limited cooldown charges.

"Pokemon GO" frontlines Aeroblast Lugia as the Animation Week's face and featured boss, exciting players to prepare for the legendary bird and soon get their hands on a new fighter with the devastating "Aeroblast" up its sleeves. According to Bulbapedia, Lugia is a Psychic-Flying type in the game series that only appears when Generation II's legendary birds are caught.

Lugia: Aeroblast Stats Speculation from Reddit Fans

Lugia has CP stats of 3,703, with an attack stat of 193, 235 points of stamina, and 310 points for defense. The Pokemon is highly-regarded for its strength and skills, including the Extrasensory and Dragon Tail. Now, Aeroblast will join its special fighting skills, making the bird more powerful than ever.

Redditors are speculating on Lugia's Aeroblast, whether it would be worth the hassle and raid that would be sought by most trainers in "Pokemon GO." Since the move has no official stats yet from the AR game, the Redditors judge the move if it would be strong enough to face the game's Master League.

Redditor u/JRE47 even argues that Lugia is an underrated Pokemon legend in the AR game; however, the move Aeroblast may make the Pokemon a force to reckon with. The forum even believes that Aeroblast would be a charged "hurricane" move that could bring immense power when hitting the opponent.

Aeroblast is Lugia's signature move, apart from the list of fighting skills it already has when it initially debuted in "Pokemon GO." The Animation Week would begin by next Friday, and players would soon witness Lugia's rise as a 5-star raid boss, along with its iconic "Aeroblast" attack move.
