>>56368239>Anyone here spoof? I want to get back into spoofing, but the landscape has changed quite a bit over the years it seems.>Like I used to do Bluestacks with PGSharp, but apparently that's no longer possible.>If you spoof currently, what emulator do you use? I've heard "Mumu" works, but its apparently a very controversial emulator.Reposting from old thread.
Aegislash when? Are we really getting Aegislash on PLZA before its in Go?
>>56368356Sex with Blanche and sucking on, um uh...
6 more days <3
>>56368397this but unironicallypost your ttars
Guys, start beating up some rockets please. I've got eggs to hatch>>56368397post medicine cabinet
>win 2 showcases>get 2 lures and some ultra balls
Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble are coming with the Dynamax update.
>>56368540Finally
>won 4 in a row in ML>get ready to lose the last so I won't get a higher rating than necessary>put two shitmons after my usual starter (rape ape)>other guy has magnezone, ice mammoth, and excadril>wipe him out with my starter aloneI just couldn't help myself... I know it's stupid, but it was just too funny to not do it
>>56368540Awful news
>>56368540About damn time
>>56368365We’ll be lucky if Honedge even comes during Halloween, it could be Mimikyu, it could be gigantamax gengar, it could even be dreepy or galarian corsola. The last two years were just mega banette, a botched zorua debut, and greavard.
>>56368540Buuny
Serebii says they posted info about the new season but I ain’t seein shit
>>56368773
>>56368758No new information except we know the name of the season, Max Out.
>>56368361Yes, Mumu + PGSharp is what I use. It’s sometimes finicky to log in, but just keep trying.
>>56368796
>>56368798>It’s sometimes finicky to log in, but just keep tryingjust like my vanilla experience
>>56368758>Serebii says they posted info about the new season but I ain’t seein shitMega Latios and Latias are returning in the next season according to LeekDuck.
>>56368866surely this time around I will finally get enough candy for a mega latias
Would you prefer to marry Brionne or Primarina? I cannot decide...
>>56368918Brionne!
>>56368918>>56368925I'd prefer you kill yourself.
>>56368913>surely this time around I will finally get enough candy for a mega latias>*gets 15 energy per raid*Wow. That's surely fair. Thanks, Hanke!
>>56368540Proof?
>>56368935Check Twitter
>>56368933please hanke spare me I only need 75 mega energy for it
I’m about to hit level 50 and I feel quite depressed about it Is this what other anons have felt?
>>56368946>please hanke spare me I only need 75 mega energy for itI mean if they made it so you got enough mega energy in 2 battles, that would be cool.But no.They want you to do 4 battles.For both.Fuck them.
>>56368948I don't care about levels. I imagine this is what I'll feel when I've caught them all. Followed by happiness for never having to play this shitty gacha ever again
>>56368948Don't care about the levels either. There's a point where I'll never advance because I'm not going to jump through their hoops to accomplish the tasks. I think it's the PvP stuff in level 44 or 45. Hell, I've been on level 41 forever because I don't want to do the eevee evolve task.
>>56368948What do levels do?
>>56369030>What do levels do?waste items, waste time.
>>56369030>What do levels do?waste space
>>56368929So you're more of a Popplio lover? I won't judge.>>56368925Brionne is extremely cute. I'd love to hold her in my arms and kiss her a lot!
>>56369049Speaking of Brionne i should get one as female shiny.
Almost there...about fucking time. My eggs are so old my uterus is starting to shrivel up
>5k eggs hatched the moment it starts Hankes padding numbers
>doing in-person xerneas raid>the moment the xerneas reaches 0 HP I'm instantly removed from the raid instance with>the gym battle has already ended >don't get any rewards or a catch encounter as a result>everyone else has already had the raid classed as completed nowI understand that mobile games are meant to be dishonest but this seems kind of extreme to just randomly deny you all rewards and also remove your raid pass from you as wellbasically one step above just randomly deleting pokemon or items from your storage
>>56368361I use pokemod, requires root but it’s doing pretty good.
> valor chads finishing their task first we carrying this game boys
Who's dick do I have to suck to get some fucking XL candy??How do people get enough to max out anything? I'm level 40 and I only have 29. Never used a single one
Millions must hatch
>>56369539they are in series
>>56369612inshallah they shall hatch
>do the "fight two rocket grunts" special event>get a ponyta with costume>YOU GOT A LOCATION CARD>immediately click it away so I don't see it>doesn't show up anywhere>Ponyta background is exactly the same as any other fire typewheeeeee. thanks hanke.
I'm not hatching anything for you fuckers.
How do I abort my pokemans
>nearest pokestop outside of neighborhood turns into a gym>two new pokestops inside neighborhood at the local playground>still a 5 min walkWould I get banned for trying to submit a power line generator box that’s within range of my house?
>>56369840>Would I get banned for trying to submit a power line generator box that’s within range of my house?probably. have a drawfag paint it up and then submit it as art.
>>56369771>half hatch distance>double dustyour loss. More time for me to eggmaxx
>>56369833send them to the candy factory
>>56369869I mean while they’re eggs not born yet
>>56369860Can confirm there’s like 30 of those here
>>56369892eggs count towards your pokemon inventory number as soon as you get them, so according to niantic, they are already alive once you get them and you can't abort them before they hatch
They're finally giving out the GO Fest Day 1 Ultra Beasts with special backgrounds that you should've gotten from remote raids during the event. Did you guys get anything good?
>>56369901Classic republicans banning abortions but doing everything they can to legalize kid death once they’re born
>>56369908Got this dude, now I can have the bat and the lion.
>>56369757Same thing happened to me. They apparently forgot to push the location card itself before they pushed the timed research. You should be able to see it now.
>>56369934>niantic fucked it up as ususalAhhhh. there it goes. >fades out almost instantly.Wow. what a great feature. Glad they added than instead of some other quality of life improvement or bug fix.
>>56369908Why didn't I get this one?I only got necrozma, pheromosa, celesteela and buzzwole>Did you guys get anything good?5 or 6 necro xl candy
So an event designed specifically so people shell out real money for incubators? LMAO fuck off Niantic.
>>56370112how do u figure?
>>56369860>>56369896My county has a bunch of those electrical boxes with art murals on them, and those are always guarantees when submitted. Something about a beautification policy. Really wish these were all over the country. In other places there’s just tons of blank boxes. If there’s nothing on them, you probably won’t get it approved, but it doesn’t hurt to try I guess. Sometimes I submit stuff on a whim and some acceptions surprise me. You won’t get banned or anything, you’ll just get a rejection with probably some listed reasons. Retrying submissions may or may not help depending.
>>56370194There is a BUNCH of these in my town, I really should submit the others that they’ve “beautified” but honestly they’re not even worth THAT.
>>56370194Rejection is the most painful thing a Pokemon Go player can experience
>>56370215Some might be worth it, some could help create a new gym or be a stop closest to home like power line generator box poster wants depending on the local cells, or you could just wait for someone else to submit them or get someone else to submit them, which is rare. One time I came across a park that needed more work put into it, and by the time I got back a couple weeks later it got terraformed with more stops and gyms.
How hard is Drapion to solo?
>>56370251pretty easy if you have the ground attackers and it's not ice fang. basically impossible if you don't. Weather boost may or may not be required for you.
forcing people to buy a pass = designed to shill out money to participatecontributing while using the free infinite incubator = not designed to shell out money
>>56370268setting dust reward at double for hatching = designed to shill out money for incubatorsI just made over 100k for an inventory of 10 and 12km eggs. Pretty good for a 2mill dustlet like me
>>56370282dust is like the least important resource lol
>>56370291>money is like the least important thing in life-rich people
On the one hand I wouldn't doubt Niantic would bullshit the numbers so the players "win" but on the other hand the playerbase of the game are turbo autistic. One of my friends had 500+ Rockets defeated and I've seen screenshots of people who defeated 1000+. Eggs are bit trickier but I'm banking on the autismo supremos to hard carry.
Uh was the free Necrozuma shiny for anyone else or just me?
>>56370354only you got the gay one
>>56368540I honestly didn't even realize that they aren't in GO yet. Considering that both the legendary dogs from Galar and Eternatus are in the game, as well as the Paldean starters, it didn't even occur to me that somehow the Galar starters were missing.How on earth did we get Zacian, Zamizenta, Eternatus, Quaxly, Fuecoco, and Sprigatito forever ago but somehow Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble are still not in the game yet?
>>56370511>EternatusWait, he is in the game already?
>>56370526no
>>56370511There was a weird big skip 3 years ago when galar skipped alola and then there was that othet skip a year ago when paldea skipped most of galarWhy did they do this? Who knows which company decides to debut which thing and when.I’m more disappointed that it’s seemingly just the starters and not more galar mons like dreepy, nickit, rookidee, and blipbug kind of like how paldea introduced the starters, route 1 mons, and pseudo right away. But Dynamax I guess!
I haven’t hatched a single egg
>>56370303just play pvp. i was a dustless loser and now i got more dust than i can spend
This game made me hate Vullaby. I hate hatching a 12k for this little nigga to pop up yet again.
>>56370982In my case, it made me hate salandit, i haven't hatch any female salandit, through 3 accounts, 2 with pgsharp paying the premium access to finish beat team rocket grunts instantly, its fucking bullshit, i gave after to months and now i don't even fight rocket grunts anymore, im just waiting for it to get a community day
>>56370262didn’t work out. Only got 4 KO’d but didn’t have the damage. RIP
>>56371022What ground attackers did you use? One mega garchomp is about all you need to KO drapion even without weather boost.
>>56369030The max level of all your mons is capped by your trainer level until 40. After 40 it's just clout and a goal to grind
>>56371065I do not have that. The best I have is a shotty mamoswine
uhh red team bros.....pick up the pace with the eggs......
is the 1/2 hatch distance actually enabled? The event pane doesn't show it as one of the active bonuses
>>56371608yes it does
>>56369461reach support you might get a pass for free or some shit, so i heard
>>56369545whales do countless raids, us peasants need to choose a mon and buddy walk it, try defit
>>56370354>freewait what?
>>56371000>18+ hatches, no femaleIt was an eye opening experience when I met an outbreak of Salazzle in SV. I got a shiny white sex lizard and hanke got a middle finger.
I gotta ask do female salandits exist in the game at all, because I have hatched 12 salandits out of hundreds of 12 km eggs and all of them were male
Is there any reason why seemling random pokemon have fuckhuge candy requirements?Like I get Magikarp since it's similar to the grind in the game but shit like Stufful and Swablu?
>>56371956Female avatars get male salandit and vice versa
for me its FitAs
>>56371869>10 kilometers per candyfuck...How long does the buddy boost stuff last? seems pretty easy to get since I maxxed out
>>56368933Mega Lati@s were available a few days ago in Indonesia. It was over 200 energy per raid.
>>56372326How come the asian countries get special events?
>stonjourner a UK exclusive spawn BASED ANOTHER REGION EXCLUSIVE SHITMON THAN YOU HANKE
>>563721493 hours, you need 32 emotion points to reach it, you can keep the state for longer if you keep doing emotion actionsyou can get some extra, invisible hearts with battling, say you did 3 battles in pvp with the mon and the heart count for battling is fullyou get an extra heart for each other kind of battling (rocket stop, balloon, gym battle, team leader training)
>>56372691> can get some extra, invisible hearts with battling, say you did 3 battles in pvp with the mon and the heart count for battling is full>you get an extra heart for each other kind of battling (rocket stop, balloon, gym battle, team leader trainingThe fucking head cannon you retards come up with to sound smart. You get 3 hearts for using your buddy in any battle, gym/pvp/raid/rocket and 3 extra hearts (or two each time) when excited. There's no fucking invisible hearts.
>>56372745i'm wrong in calling it hearts yes, the correct would be emotion point which is something that happens behind the whole heart thing and it's been known for a while now, literally in the code, you can keep getting emotion points in a timely manner regardless of how many hearts appear on the buddy and the different kinds of battling being separate is therehttps://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/edcb01/how_to_get_your_buddy_excited_from_gamemaster/
Oh boy, people are not gonna be happy about this...
>>56372813The mega bullshit thing gives extra candyDoes this gimmick do anything? Otherwise I'm just gonna ignore it
>>56371613oh? And where exactly does it show it
>>56372809to add to it, that thread is old and maybe outdated, i can't find current research on it but apparently the rocket battles got split to each have their own cooldown on emotion points according to this reply to this threadhttps://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/smtjdt/comment/hw3gujg/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
>>56372829I can't find any information on the mechanics for the dynamax raids so, as far as we're concerned, it just feeds into itself.
>>56371917>wait what?Check the special event tab. There should be a task where you beat two rocket grunts.If you did any of those raids where you were supposed to get a special background, you have a chance at spawning those mons and getting the background. Otherwise it's just a regular mon with a special background.
>>56372046>Is there any reason why seemling random pokemon have fuckhuge candy requirements?I'd wager it has to do with how difficult it is to evolve the mon in the games.
>>56372813>Those thousands of Pokemon you've accumulated over the years? Yeah sorry trainers, you have to start all over again if you want to use the shiny new gimmick on them!
>>56372957>we can't into game balance so we'll just make everyone start over.>nevermind the fact that day one someone will be lucky enough to catch a shundo and get all the resource they need in order to dynamax all they want.
I STILL don’t know what using a dynamax means for Go
>>56369918kek
>>56371956yes (and I got one very early with a female avatar so that's not a factor)simply keep gambling
>>56370699dreepy is /in/ (but you're not gonna see it for a while)shitmons got shafted for now
>>56373070>I STILL don’t know what using a dynamax means for Golooks like a new form of raids with exclusive pokemon that you can only get (and use in) from those raids. also probably only in person raids.
>>56373081Looks like it will be either super rare pseudo in the wild like jangmo-o and frigibax and/or just exclusice to eggs and researchMaybe in 3 years I’ll have a good dragapult
>>56372682I will simply make a spoofing alt to get it while also getting other shit I want.I will get banned.I will wait 7 days.I will wait until the community day stardust discount before trading with myself.I will dex enter it from america.I will never buy a plane ticket to get a regional.
>>56372844Right here
>>56373111yeah I'll be honest that seems like the only reasonable way to do it. I'll even say it's intended. Niantic WANTS you to trade with spoofers, no other explanation
>>56373132honestly, pure incompetence is right up niantic's alley>have regionals because LOL ELITISM>only way to legally get them is to literally fly the entire globe every so oftenP.S. fuck the pieces of shit that can and do do that.>never have events where regionals appear elsewhere >therefore there are several dex's you'll simply never get to complete because you can't afford to travel the globe>niantic thinks this is fine
>>56373160>only way to legally get them is to literally fly the entire globe every so oftenOr wait possibly years until they spawn locally / in raids.
>>56373160buy a cheap phone and install pgshart and trade yourself regionals
>>56373179>buy a cheap phone and install pgshart and trade yourself regionalstoo much work for something idgaf about.
>>56373160>P.S. fuck the pieces of shit that can and do do that.no need to be a jealous fag
They’re bring back monthly tickets while rubbing their hands
>>56372682It references the real worldino inspiration of the region stojourner debuted in. /vp/ should love it.
Thoughts?
>>56373201It stinks.
>>56373201>Larvesta in 2km eggs this is an admission of guilt on their part for the absolutely atrocious hatching chances in the 10 km eggs, yes?
>>5637320112KM eggs need a shakeup. I’ve been trying to hatch varoom for months and I only get vullaby.
>>56373201>even starters debut in eggs nowwow, how natural!>>56373213No, it was always on those.If anything, its weird they aren't making it 10km exclusive now.
>>56373218skill issue
>>56373219starters will be in the wild>>56373185well then you're not the same anon that clearly cared about the dex then>>56373179don't even need a phone, just find the right bluestacks build (it's not hard)though if my spoof alt is only friends/only trades with my main acc, is my main at risk of getting b&?
>get to Lv43>New task: win 20 times on ladderfuck this
>>56373287Sounds like an OSHA violation.
>>56373201is larvesta a real hatch chance or still 0.02%?
Is there actually a point to dynamaxing? You can only dynamax something to beat more dynamax raids, but what is the benefit outside of that? At least Megas are much stronger and give extra candy
>>56373299DexThe only reason to do anything in this game
>>56373299No, seems DOA.
>>56373287This is nothing, you can come across 20 tankers who will immediately surrender to you in a matter of days, especially in the first few days of a season.
>>56373299find out later this season when we do enough pointless research and niantic comes up with a story for it an hour before the next step goes live
>>56373287>win 20 times on ladderladder?
>>56373308It's not really about the difficulty.It's more about forcing me into a game mode I absolutely don't care about.
>>56373310meaning actually play the pvp game mode instead of mindlessly fighting the team leaders
>>56373287>scrubs getting filtered by the easiest pvp requirement everI guess you're not the best, like no one ever was.
>>56373341Gotta tap them all!
>2x evolution xp for the first weeklong event in new seasonfinally
>>56373287The algorithm keeps you at 50%. At worst it's 2 days
>>56373329ahh>>56373287why are you crying about that? Until you get 1500+ rating, that shit is ridiculously easy. You don't even need to think about setting up a proper team
question, why is the master league so easy?i don't know shit about PvP, just added 3 of my strongest mons (groudon, kyogre and togekiss) and almost everyone just gets wrecked with my basic ass strategy. are the lower leagues just too optimized compared to masters or what
>>56373354>why are you crying about that?some "people" get heavily offended by the thought of having to do pvp in a pve game, or busywork outside of their typical five minute rotation of 'log in, tap daily shit, log out," both of which are part of the level 40+ goals
>>56373357If you have a good team it's really easy - until it's suddenly not.
>>56373357The fact that you grabbed Togekiss means you have more presence of mind than 90% of Master League players. Master League at high ranks is actually impossible without 45IV lv50 Legendary Pokemon though. You'll just get smacked down over and over again.
>>56373357>low eloYou're fighting other people who don't give a shit and just que up with the 3 biggest CP's they have. Any semblance of an actual team will wreck them>mid eloWannabe tryhards who read an info graphic about ML but have no idea how to play. You'll find a lot of level 40 meta mons here but they'll double shield aqua tails from your palkia trying to get switch only to get obliterated by brave birds from your ho-oh.>mid high elo 2500+These are the sweaty ranks. You're finally going to face competent players with fleshed out teams. You can't just rely on team comp to carry you anymore, you'll need actual skill to progress>high elo 3k+Hell mode. Everyone here has the most meta teams and knows what they're doing. Dedicated anti meta teams don't really work that well since ML isn't really RPS. The skill level though is still lower than what you need to hit legend in GL, since ML is a much tighter meta and most everything has play into everything elseProbably more info than you asked for, but that's why ML is so easy compared to the rest of the leagues.
>>56373357If you're in the vast vast minority of people that have enough xl candy to max out your Groudon and Kyogre, you already have an inherent advantage over most other players. And you happened to stumble upon a good ABB team, Togekiss struggles with steels and rock which Groudon and Kyogre both can handle when in the back, supporting Togekiss when it leads.
How we feeling Dragabros? You think we are getting a cucked moveset? or a good one.
>>56373417https://pastebin.com/5Xp3fei9>august 18, 2021Dragapult:Fast moves: Hex, Dragon TailCharge moves: Dragon Pulse, Shadow Ball, OutrageStats: 204 (HP), 266 (Atk), 170 (Def)Buddy Distance: 5.0km
>>56368361i use mumu too but it hasn't been working for 2 days now
>>56373357>question, why is the master league so easy?For me when it's easy it's because the mon I use are so high level + exclusive moves. If I use 3k+ mons as long as I don't encounter someone who is using strats, I can clean them out. I rarely PvP though...don't like it. I only PvP when events basically force me to.
>>56371166(until lvl 60 is added at least)
>>56373417Pvpoke has it as dragon tail, hex + pulse/outrage/s.ballSo meh overall, decent ghost or dragon attacker but no shadow so all the old powerhouses you have already win. No bait move so dead on arrival in pvp. Even Draklok with the astonish buff probably won't make to many waves in GL
>>56373427Dang, okay for raids, similar to salamence, but useless for competitive tapping.
>>56373432>(until lvl 60 is added at least)They'll never add level 60.To lock level 60 mon behind that much leveling work would cause players to riot.
>>56373442they went back and made 1-39 easier when they released 41-50, so its possible they could do the same with 41-50 for 51-60
>>56373417>>56373438>not even 4k cpmogged by salamance & dawn wings
>>56373451>they went back and made 1-39 easier when they released 41-50, so its possible they could do the same with 41-50 for 51-60i think that would cause everyone to get just as pissed. a lot of those tasks are a gigantic pain in the ass (and expensive in terms of time and items) and to just remove them for new players or a new plateau would cause a shitstorm.
>>56373442Bruh, they said that about lvl 50 and then look what they did. 156 million xp to go from level 40 to 50.
>>56373417>>56373438>>56373461Just wait till It gets dragon darts in 3 years from a community day.
>>56373463I didn't say anything about the tasks themselves. they might cut the xp cost down by a ton to equal it out with the typical time it takes to do the specific tasks each level.
>>56373243>starters will be in the wildThat's unnatural, pokemon don't appear in the wild.EOS soon then.
>>56372745is this... "him"? oh my fucking god, again
>>56371865Yeah, did that. Even when I can't supply a screenshot evidence because there's nothing in-game that can provide it they refunded myself a premium raid pass anyway.I guess they just know the game is an unstable sack of shit.
>>56373201Thank you for crossing out that ugly ass avatar image at the bottom.
Will Dynamax Bulbasaur be able to learn Solar Beam?
>>56373201>No one mentions the guaranteed trade candy XLThe lack of guaranteed candy XL felt especially obnoxious during the summer since that's the only time I can trade with my friend regularly. At least this'll make my alt. way more useful during the fall even if I don't find anyone to trade with.

>>56372682How detestable.>>56372813>Pokémon caught from Max Battle encounters, as well as their Evolutions, can be Dynamaxed during Max Battles.The point of Dynamax was that every single Pokémon could be DMaxed, no matter the source, in absence of GMax factor.How detestable of niantroons.>>56373111>I will get banned.I wouldn't be so sure. I'm STILL not even warned :^)>>56373201The best part of the image is the paint over the dude, I'm hyped for exactly nothing>>56373299Assuming you can't DMax in normal raids? Then it's probably just a "be ready for GMax, the new drip feed" shit. Which will also be only usable in DMax raids - back to step 1.
People still play this shit?
>>56373686That's the new standard of niantroons' generosity. The spawn rates might drop off a cliff after the event though. And we still haven't seen catch rates...Paldea unlock debuted with more additions though.Would these motherfuckers die if they added Rookidee somewhere in the mix?
>>56373742this isn't the galar debut, so they don't have to match it up to paldea's
>>56372813It make sense. Its a new riding system.They give you special mon > you get more special mons > You get exclusive Gmax monsSo everyone will be forced to do them.
>>56373696Everyone loves you PrimarinaCHAD
>>56373668
well that's 5$ I won't get back
>>56373760Not only they don't have to match it up, they go out of their way to make things shittier regardless. Like dismantling Adventure Week. Things only ever get shittier in this game.>>56373812Thank!>>56373866Cheer up, at least you got one 15 stat, so that will be one less Bottle Cap to use in the games.
Any reason to hold onto pokemon for the 2x transfer candy day if all I need is candy XL?I can't find anywhere that says whether or not XL is included
>>56373891If we somehow complete the Mystic challenge, we'll get a window where we can get 2 candy XL for evolving Pokémon (i.e., Evolving a Metang to Metagross will give you 2 Beldum candy XL)....Wait, are you talking about the 2x transfer candy day from last week?
>>56373926>are you talking about the 2x transfer candy day from last week?yes
>>56373891If you're interested in exchanging 100 candy for 1 XL...
>>56373961that has nothing to do with my question. Go avatarfag somewhere else
>>56373978Are you dense?
>>56373668nope, sadly
An exclusive Max Particle Pack Bundle will be available on the Pokémon GO Web Store for US$7.99 (or the equivalent pricing tier in your local currency) starting September 8, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. PDT! The Max Particle Pack Bundle will feature six Max Particle Packs, for a total of 4,800 Max Particles for all your Dynamax needs!behold our future
>>56374012https://pokemongolive.com/post/go-big-dynamax
>>56373978I think that anon was taking my point too literally. Technically, you could get it by spending 100 candies (-1 after the evolution because Niantic rewards the baker's dozen I guess) to get 2 candy XL, or you could evolve a Beldum into a Metang for only 24 (25-1) to get 2 that way.>>56374012>Hey, you should spend $8 on this resource you have no info about!No thanks, Hanke. Maybe some other time once I know why I should want those "particles".
https://x.com/pokemongoapp/status/1828522977983438957?s=46&t=uoxyuUwYsi7jqcWRSiBgqAWe are already getting defendersWe are never fucking getting that Max Soup as long as Steranka is alive
>pogo players have been milked and stripped from their dignity since the beginning of the game>hurr durrrr this is our future lollmao even
>>56374069most cringe exchange I've read in a whileBut I still have no idea what exactly those *max things are, so maybe I'm just ignorant
>>56374109>DynamaxSomething every single pokemon can do>Gigantamaxsomething only specific pokemon can do, and had to be caught in gameDynamax should just be a thing you can do on any of your pokemon once you get enough energy, gigantamax are the forms only certain pokemon can do, and being forced to raid for them would at least be in line with how they were introduced in the first place.
>>56374125>something only specific pokemon can do, and had to be caught in game...or given Max Soup from Isle of Armor.You will not see Max Soup in Pokémon Go.Ever.
>>56374203of course not, why would they? Maybe in a year we can get them during some masterwork research if you pay 15 dollars. Or 25 for a GoFest ticket next year...but only for CHARIZAAAAAARD
https://x.com/thepokemodgroup/status/1828539116226560119?s=46&t=uoxyuUwYsi7jqcWRSiBgqAFucking finallyNow to wait for 2 months
>>56374231looks like a useless blobwhat's the big deal?
>>56374319The big deal is that non-spoofies hope to finish their Johto dex. Galarian Corsola will fill that missing spot.
>>56374369Corsola was in go fest last month.
>>56374369Fair enoughPretty sure I'm missing a bunch
>>56374382That was for paypiggies only
>Dynamax pokémon can only be used in Dynamax battles >they have literally no function outside of that, no special bonuses or anything when used anywhere elseSo what's the fucking point?
>>56374402don't worry they'll fix the gimmick several years after it debuts, like Megas
megaCHADS just keep on winning
shadowCHADS own this fucking game
Zygarde Cell Dissasembly when?Z-moves when?Ultra burst when?Terastalization when?Terastal forms when?
>>56368356New shit, thats cool!, but where are the dogs? I missed them the last time
>>56374069holy shit, i just realized that we won't be able to gigamax the dynamax pokemon we wil catch in these new raids
>>56374394I thought it was just incense only
>see Go shiny Pokemon in Home Box>instantly release that garbageThat "G" is just so ugly.
>>56374597Did you get laughed out of the shiny hunting thread again?
>>56374609Stop ban evading.
>>56374687Says the ban evader.
They should make remote raid passes a showcase reward
>>56374885Best I can do is another lure module.
Match me with an opponent before we pick teams
>>56373287I beat that in a week. Though if you want to cheese it I believe fighting a friend counts
>>56374926play sanctioned bring 6 pick three tournaments then. Also, if they turned GBL into that the meta would drastically shrink even more.>>56374935you can cheese the wins in GL/UL/ML with a friend, but not the 20 GBL wins. Gotta do that semi-legit
Why is the Cresselia candy grey?
>>56374987Why is your hair turning grey?
>>56374943How would what I suggested shrink the meta?
>>56375043Just look at worlds, every fucker was using almost the same team in a show 6 pick 3 format. Or are you some idiot that thinks you're getting algorithm'd?
>>56374369>finish their Johto dexthat isn't regular lugia (fuck shadow legendaries), corsola appears quite often
>>56373201all shit, specially dynamax raids because they'll be a mess just like elite raids
>>56368965I'm on 41 as well, but about to have to choose which of my 50+ eevees to evolve. I don't have enough shinies for one of each, so I have to try and figure out which ones are good competitively (if any?)
>>56375188>plebbit spacingNever once did I suggest a team preview, retard.The algorithm is real. Literally anyone with half a brain recognizes this.
>>56374609Time for meds.
some retard just tried to use solar beam against my dusk mane lmao
>>56374597i like that this is specifically the ones that can only be obtained in pogo through insanely high effort quests that take months/years to finish, well done bait
>>56374069don't know if this is controversial but as a dexfag I'm actually quite ok with the mon-by-mon debut scheme for DynamaxI would assume mons that get their Dyna function enabled get an event where they're available, meaning if you're keeping up with the game you can reasonably keep you Dynamax Dex to as full as possible (might even help for the regular dex)if they enabled dyna for every single Mon at once there's no universe where I would be bothered to complete the dyna dex(and yes I know dyna is different from gigantamax and that they'll have different dexs)
I know everyone in this thread is probably really bored but if everyone hates !Akemi so much then why do we keep pointing fingers at him?
>>56373213Larvesta is in every standard egg type, only 7 and 12 can't hatch it
So I guess we're gonna have Zacian and Zamazenta in the raids next month?
Is the 2x hatch stardust supposed to be active right after instinct global challenge ends?
>>56375775He doesn't exist
The egg numbers were fake, right? Maybe I'm naive, but there's no way people actually hatched that many eggs?
>>56375294>algorithmRetard confirmed.
>>56376235Yep. There's no way 10 million+ eggs were hatched while America was sleeping.
>>56373438>but useless for competitive tapping.Apparently it will get Breaking Swipe, so it can be a decently good anti-meta pickBuffed Astonish, Breaking Swipe, Shadow Ball. Complete shame about not having Dragon Darts, but whatever, just happy that the Dreepy line is finally in. Now to wait for the Honedge line and Mimikyu
>>56376372It'll need dragon darts before it's actually good in competitive. The breaking swipe/astonish switch was nice for it, but it's just too frail and slow to threaten the new meta. It will be usable though, which is more than the old moveset could say.
>>56375775So maybe fucks off and realized how stupid he is.>>56376176You are.
>>56376253Not enough sunlight absorbed confirmed.
>>56376535Sunlight causes skin cancer.
>>56373408Hell Mode in GL starts at 1800
>>56376579It really doesn't lol, GL is an entirely different beast compared to master league. End of season, anything below 2500 is just easy mode even if they're running full meta teams. 2500-3k in GL is the sweaty elo when your team needs to beat the taptap fast move bullshit and good balance teams. Then you get into legend elo and the teams get wonky as fuck as everyone is playing shit they enjoy, which unfortunately still includes retards with their taptap bastiodons. Hell mode in GL isn't until you climb the leaderboard. I would know.
>taptaplmao>700 lossesDude
https://x.com/PokemonGoApp/status/1828779746626351532>Normal Kyogre and Groudon finally return to raids, after 1.5 yearsI was convinced they were gone for good...
>>56376542everything causes cancer.
>>56376791You tried this argument before and lost, get some new material.
Anyone else hate pvp alot? I always got frame rate issues but it wasn't bad to the point where the entire game would freeze for 3-5 seconds while I lose several fast moves and my opponent gains additional fast moves and gains their charge move earlier. I never really get frame drops anywhere else ingame that's as bad in pvp.
>>56376841Hopefully they're trying to fix things on the backend right now so next season is smoother, but yes pvp is pretty shit with frame drops and 1 turn lags right now.
>>56374597You can put a G mark on injected mons right? No way that's real
>Zacian finally back in raids after 2 years>Shiny unlockedNeatI still think it’s fucking insane doing all this while solgaleo and lunala have still never been in raids because le cosmog
>>56376825>and lostNot as much as you did LMAO
>>56376889Yeah, the only 100% legit ones are those which display pogo as the last game visited (top right mark on pic related, it's from pogo but visited Violet, so you can't know - this one is mine though)
>Falinks raid dayL M A O
>>56376530Lol fair but at this point I think he's self-aware and just trolling.
>>56376961
>>56376622I was going by my experience as a tankfag and the actual descriptions laid out in >>56373408 sorry i offended your pogo pvp sensibilities.
>>56376895if they don't have the other dog in raids right after that im gonna riot
>>56377018>the other dog>so irrelevant nobody remembers its nameZamazentaI like Zacian more though, she's a big girl
>>56377017It's just hilarious when people try and claim anything around the 2k is hard. I tanked last season just to see what the hype was and it was the most laughable pvp experience I've ever seen. Not like pvp is hard in general, you fight the game more than you fight other players.
>>56377045no I just don't remember anything about gen 8 because I hated that game (loved sv though, not an oldgenfag)
>>563770732k/Ace is where most people encounter two move pokemon for the first time anon
So no release of the Crowned forms of Zacian and Zamazenta? Gay.
>>56377094>two move pokemonnta. What?
>>56377116wait for galar tour
>>56377131>wait like four more yearsThank you Hanke, Very cool!
>>56377116"legendary heroes" event later in the month when zacian is inmaybe there's more to it
>>56377139itll be an event based around all the champions' teams or just their aces, so expect a lot of charizard focus thanks to leon
So does anyone know how the dynamax battles will work yet? Like should we pre-build teams like with regular raiding? Or does that not apply?
>>56377125Pokemon with their second charge move unlocked.
>>56377084Understandable, SwSh was the most stinky turd of all. SV was shit too, but at least it was enjoyable shit where I spent more hours than I care to admit.The only decent part of Galar is the DLCs lol
>>56377255>SwSh was the most stinky turd of all.That's not true, ${Your_favourite_gen} exists
>>56377255i don't even think SV is bad, it's rushed and that's unfortunate but the DLC was probably my favorite experience in the series (with the ending of PLA in close second)story and music were top-notch and the fights were decently hard and interesting
Dynamax battles are going to be an absolute clusterfuck on Day One, aren't they?
>>56376793because most people already have a 4* and infinite mega energy for both of themso forcing them to fight primals is just extra hard work for no rewardespecially primal kyogre who is next to impossible as a 2man
>>56377094I'm rank 18 and I've been going up against 2 move anons as far back as before level 10. I consistently see them every battle now
>>56376869So how do they expect trainers to progress in rank?
>worst region>worst starters>worst dex>worst gimmick by a lotWhatever their reasons, largely skipping gen 8 for like 5 years or whatever was the right call. The only saving graces in that dex are the Hat, the bug types and Falinks
Found my first not useless shiny pokemon14/15/15 XerneasI'd still trade it for a hundo tho
>>56377437ivs get rerolled on a trade, so you wouldn't be getting a hundo if the other player sent you one
>>56377437you got a top 10 fairy type there so unless you have something better already, it can work.
>>56377449I know... I mean I'd still prefer a hundo over my shiny...
>>56377471Yeah, the plan is to switch out my togekiss in the near futureI'm gonna miss it's ground resistance tho :/
>>56377336I know, I'm saying I'm surprised Hanke had the foresight to do something people actually wanted for a change.
>>56377266I'll give you that music and some fights were good. I don't think the story was anything amazing, but had ups and downs. But GF was never half as good as Chunsoft with stories anyway.I'd also give them that Pokémon models are simply the best and that shiny hunting became somewhat enjoyable.But I can't overlook the utter lack of anything to do after postgame, the insane drop in move animation quality, how ass tera raids are, how buggy everything is, the unresponsive laggy UI deprived of PLA features, beyond horrible graphics and performance (and this is the console that runs smoothly much prettier games) and everything else that's been already argued a million times.It's just infuriating knowing how much potential the game had and how great it could've been, had it remained in the oven for longer.By the way, WHERE IS MY ESPATHRA HANKE
>>56377157We have literally no idea how they'll work. As far as we know, they're either the same as normal raids or completely different.
>>56377524>We have literally no idea how they'll work. As far as we know, they're either the same as normal raids or completely different.Dear lord. >have to go out in the summer heat>hunt down some place where these raids are supposed to happen>hope there's tons of other people there wanting to do the same thing>jump in blindOh God, they're gonna fuck this up so bad.
>>56377534I'm pretty sure everyone here is ready for max raids to shit themselves day one, and then maybe in a week, it'll be in a playable state. Of course that doesn't mean it'll function as intended, but at least it won't shit itself every single raid.
>>56377548>I'm pretty sure everyone here is ready for max raids to shit themselves day one, and then maybe in a week, it'll be in a playable state. Of course that doesn't mean it'll function as intended, but at least it won't shit itself every single raid.I just hope there's some part of the system that doesn't fuck up that I can take part in and maybe gain some ground on the system. like leaving a mon at a dynamax lair and get energy or something.
>>56377552>like leaving a mon at a dynamax lair and get energy or something.lol, lmaopower spots change daily so you aren't going to be leaving anything in one, especially not to get dust they are already planning to sell you in the coin shop
>>56377560>power spots change daily so you aren't going to be leaving anything in one, especially not to get dust they are already planning to sell you in the coin shopOh great. and here I am with no pokestops within a reasonable walking distance because the wayfare elitists refused 95% of the stops I submitted.
>>56377552>leaving a mon at a dynamax lair and get energy or something.They did find text in the datamine suggesting they'll have something like that. It currently says something about leaving a Gigantimax Pokémon there so that it'll make dynamax raids more likely to spawn. Would appreciate if it's not only restricted to something we probably won't get for months, maybe even a year, but we'll just have to see.
>>56377437Trade it for a bigger Xerneas for fairy-type showcases.
