Pokémon Go Appraisal vs. IV Calculator
Few days after Pokémon Go got released the majority of trainers started using one or another Pokémon Go IV Calculator (tool for calculating your Pokémon’s Individual Values of Attack, Defense, and Stamina). Therefore, it’s not a big surprise Niantic developers added Appraisal feature which is more or less eliminating a need for this type of tools.
On the other hand, your Team leader phrase doesn’t mean the exact IV but just a range. Therefore, all trainers who are not satisfied with the IV range will still use one or another IV calculator just to get more accurate evaluation.
