Alright, guys, so I’ve been diving deep into Pokémon GO lately, and let me tell you, this Genesect with the Douse Drive? It’s been a whole thing. I wanted to share my experience, from the initial confusion to finally figuring it out.
So, first off, I kept seeing people talking about “Douse Drive Genesect” and I was like, “What the heck is that?”. I’d caught a few Genesect before, but they were just… normal? I did some digging, and found out that Genesect can have different “Drives” that change its Techno Blast move type. The Douse Drive makes it Water-type, which is pretty sweet.
My first step was figuring out where to even get one. I checked around, asked some folks on my local Discord, and it turned out they were only available in specific raids. Bummer! I’d missed a few events, it seemed. Kept my eyes peeled, checked the in-game news constantly. Nothing.
Then, boom! One day, there it was – a Genesect raid, and the announcement specifically mentioned the Douse Drive. I was stoked. I rallied a few friends, we jumped into the raid, and… it was tough! We barely managed to take it down with, like, seconds left on the clock. My heart was pounding.
- Tip from me: Make sure you have a solid team of Fire-type Pokémon. Seriously, they melt Genesect.
Finally, I caught it! I checked the moves, and there it was: Techno Blast, and it was Water-type. Woohoo! I immediately powered it up a few times, just to be sure. Felt good, man.
Putting it to the Test
Now, the fun part – actually using this thing. I took it into a few battles, mostly against Team Rocket grunts and leaders, since I wanted to see how it performed against different types.
It did pretty well! Water-type Techno Blast is super effective against those pesky Rock and Ground-types. The Grunts didn’t stand a chance. And the leaders? Let’s just say Arlo’s Charizard wasn’t so happy.
So, that’s my Genesect Douse Drive story. It took a bit of waiting, some serious raiding, and a little bit of luck, but I finally got it. If you’re trying to get one, keep an eye on those raid announcements, and make sure you have a good team ready to go. Good luck, trainers!
