First for FUCK waytroons
how do you sign in to pogo from bluestacks or mumu? I only get "Failed to sign in"
Huge event for shinies I already have>5 more daysOh fuck
>>58328890QRD?
>Honedge is in raids again>It wasn’t even announced because it’s somehow not even part of the event
>>58328956Is it good?
>>58328756Speaking of waytroons I don't think I can take a picture of the wooden well with the road in the shot without getting a house in the background. I don't know if I should keep pushing for this one when the mowed grass around it makes it look like private property. And it's also at the end of a residential street that can't be checked on street view. Either I try something else or just keep pushing it as is with no changes and hope I get lucky. I dunno.

>>58329111>Meganium, Feraligatr, and Emboar will also be able to learn their featured attack using a Charged TM during the event.Pretty good.
>>58329011Your call. If you can Photoshop/use AI well you could even make it seem like the road's close to the well as there is no other evidence that contradicts this.
>Step 1:Use your alt of the current team to force feed defenders to berry cap to prevent healingholy shit this is a genius movei will use this in the future
>>58329111You niggers told me this wouldn’t get revealed this week I FUCKING TOLD YOU
>>58329111>>58329123>Meganium, Feraligatr, and Emboar will also be able to learn their featured attack using a Charged TM during the event.Why the hell isn't this a regular thing during community days so I don't have to be afraid of evolving my favorite bois? Or has it always been a thing this whole time and I'm just retarded?
>>58329111>mega meganium with frenzy plant>mega emboar in generalmight be beasts for raids
>>58329223based retard
>>58329234>Mega Meganium>Meganium>Being good in anything at allAnon, I have a 100% Meganium and I'm certain it's still gonna suck as a mega (meaning that it won't surpass Mega Sceptile). The best contender we have is Mega Chesnaught.Mega Emboar, on the other hand, might end up being better than Mega Blaziken, so that could be interesting.
>>58329240Oh no...
why is the game asking me to link to my google account every time I open now?I've always had it with the pokemon trainer club
Anyone want to raid Scizor?
>>58329537No nigga, find paypiggers somewhere else
>>58329556:-/
this new update has made the game chugi wish i didnt download it :/
So the monthly pass upgrade is $7 to get $10 worth of coins? Wowee, Niantic sure is generous!
>5k eggs contain alolan meowth budew and munchlaxSo do they just want me to ignore hatching eggs?
>>58330226Until a 7 day event that adds the new dex entry behind 5k eggs for a limited time. Also there will be 5-7 other pokemon in that hatching pool.
WHAT THE FUCK IS TRAILBLAZE
Shiny of the day I think>>58330475Grass charged move that raises attack (raises speed in console games)
10 min before reset home Sotd
>>58329750The battle animations and research encounter animations are fucking ugly and bloatedFucking saudis already doing shit
>>58331204Wait, what new animations?
>have one gym i clear out right after midnight (to be courteous of course) >two different guys always piggy back and place a pokemon after me (they never help attack the gym with me of course)>they always put in two low cp shitters so we always get knocked out before the 50 coinsits shit like this that makes me want to just make alts to stuff gymsthis is so gay
>>58331494Just take the gym earlier lmao.Even if they put 2 blisseys in there people would still take your gym retard. That Turbo autist killing your gym will absolutely take 10 extra seconds to smash to blisseys to shit with his shundo Terrakidon and Shadow Machamp.
DamnFirst naturally caught Hundo.
>>58329492For me it's asking for google fit permissions (Samsung health here) despite AdvSync being permanently off and on alts (PTC login) - add work email (lmfao)Annoying
>>58332562It does that so it can make your character match your weight and shit, I thought (lol)
Mormon blud really took a month off on the last day before best friends :| what a jokester
Well beggars can't be choosers
will i be able to evolve to get a metagross with shadow claw? also is meteor mash available?
>>58331347Its just the white flash transition animation effectSorry i misspoke, it just makes the game feel weird
>>58331738Lucky bastard
>>58333611Awful luck on my end
>>58334059Not the anon you were responding to, but I've had pretty ok luck lately. Nine shinies in the last week.Five of them are repeats, but a shiny is a shiny.
>>58333642nope
>>58334249I’ve had insane luck this event (even if they’re almost all repeats) but man I dislike Skwovet and already have a couple.
>PLS GIVE US MONEY FOR DURALOUDON AS WE REFUSE TO PUT THINGS ON THE MAP DURING ON WHALE-BLEED DRIPFED CONTENT PAYPIG SQUEEZEGIVE US $5 agaiN!!!
>>58334661There’s like 8 million duraludon raids and you can solo as well as having it in research.
>>58334693its not in free research the research is 5usd
>>58334699Looks free to me
>>58334059I got other one later on but still not good
They do exist!
>>58334699It's a regular research from stops, win 3 dynamax battles.You can just beat three 1* shitters and get it.
Remember to do a bunch of the “transfer ten mons” task for the trubbish and save it, we have a double star dust spotlight coming up
oh shit metagross is tomorrowwas convinced it was sunday, almost missed it
>>58334699based retard
i forgot how hard it was to catch latiasthen shadow too....ran away....
I am cursed.(All male).The same thing with my three shiny buneary, weirdly enough.
>>58336184>That spoilerIt's over anon
>>58336184Geez, just how many Mawile have you been seeing? I've only seen about 3 or 4 so far. Thankfully, I've already long since caught my tiny shiny lady.
>>58336184I've got two shiny mawile, and it's a male and female.Ripperoni.
Is it worth it to go to an ambassdor meet up? I heard you can get swag from them. How likely is that?
>>58336264No shiny mawile this event, but I'm seeing enough mawile that I haven't given up hope just yet.
>>58336293By signing up on campfire and being at the meetup, you get to claim a reward that varies depending on the "event". For raid hour/day you get 1 free elite raid pass. Ambassadors are sometimes given items to gift participants, but that usually happens for big events and not every ambassador does this. Also>swagKys nigger
Friend me, faggots. I send/recieve gifts every night.9000 2601 9849
>>58336327Fair enough, should've realized from none of them having the blue tinge. I wish you luck, anon, everyone who desires one deserves an adorable shiny steel girl.
>>58336338uhh are you a zoomer? using swag to referrer to free given away merch was the original meaning.....
>>58336327well you got like 5 days more
>>58336346based ultra friend or whatever its called
>>58336383ESL bro?
Wait. Why is mega metagross raid day today and not Sunday like usual?That kinda sucks for me.
Da Gyarados or da Houndoom mega fo’ today?
>>58336603None, use a steel type for them candies. If you are lacking in the DPS department then Primal Groudon or Mega Char, Blaziken.
My most recent.
it won't let me register an alt account using @protonmail.com :(
>Well for sure I won't get Metagross shiny today
>>58336995just use mail.com
The monly pass thing only goes to 200? Wtf?
>>58333642>>58334395I evolved my Dynamax Beldum during raid hours and got Shadow Claw on a Dynamax Metagross.Worth it, it's a good tank option alongside Fury Swipes, such as against Latias and Latios. You can always elite TM for Meteor Mash later if you need it, Max Raiders primarily care about their fast move anyway.
>>58334693Show a duraludon solo
>>58334661I hosted one on Leekduck and 3 Japanese players joined in under a minute.
>>58336264>>58336364I know you!
>>58338198Just look on youtube? It’s not even that difficult. You just need it to have the right moveset
Good day today.
>>58337392Nevermind I got twoBoth were not good but still nice
Did 3 megagross today, 1 shiny.None had particularly good IVs but I already had a 43/45 one so don't really mind.
>Do Beldum Dynamax battles all week>All low-grade catches, trading fodder>Do Mega Metagross raid day>98%, 100%, and shiny within five first raids>Catch another 98% and 96%, all perfect attackWeird luck this week, I don't normally get this lucky on raid days.Today's hundo was the fifth Metagross, and they've all come from different sources>Hatched from egg>Caught in wild fully evolved>Received in non-guaranteed lucky trade>Caught after a max battle>Caught after a mega raid battle
do auto catchers count towards great/nice throws? you can see how many great throws people on your friend list have made and holy fuck i have some guy who's made over 3000 in the last two and a half days. i thought he was a local that i added from a raid but im pretty sure he's spoofing. i thought i was playing the game a lot but i don't even come close to this autist, especially if they're all from manual throws.
>>58337988is shadow claw a 0.5s move?
>>58338218Shut up, no you don't.
>>58338708I know that the official ones like Go Plus don't count, not sure about 3rd party ones.
>>58338699>>Received in non-guaranteed lucky tradewhat kind of maniac uses a guaranteed lucky on a regular beldum
>>58338724Yes, and it's also higher DPS than Fury Cutter, making it a great tank for all future psychic type max battles and a good alternative to Gigantamax Gengar.Long term, it probably doesn't matter too much since Niantic rushed max battles to their peak, and Blissey / Zacian / Zamazenta / Eternatus are good in most scenarios meaning you don't need dedicated counters so much.
>>58338751Well I guess that much is obvious, but it's just stating facts.
>forced to do two raids for enough m-meta energy>second one is shinyez
>>58338749his number has gone up another 100 in the time since last post. how the fuck are people like this real
>>58338734
Someone here said there’s a daily limit to walking (25km), is that still true?
>>58338980Not accurate, there's a 42km limit on candies your buddy can earn.It's so that you have a buffer to allow 20km buddies to receive up to 4 candies when excited (2 otherwise).Iirc the distance limit on buddy candies functions similarly to the 30 minute cooldown on feeding a gym defender up to 10 berries per cooldown (up to 10 defenders too).
>>58339013Oh, it’s just on candies? Cool, might get 150km this week then
>>58339038If there is an upper limit on distance tracked I've yet to hit it.I use a phone swing to hatch eggs with adventure sync, and I'm continuing hatch eggs long past hitting the buddy candy daily limit.I've had days where I exceed 50km I'm sure, you see it in the "walk star" raid achievements.
>mess with pvp again for candy and dust>all of my pokemon are now offmeta and actually dogshit now>i have next to no good pokemon for any leaguealright, how do i fix this when i lack dust and candy
>>58339051Disgusting.
>>58339110Just use a grass starter, a fire starter and a water starter, and then win 50% of your battles.
>>58339051Get your ass outside and hatch those the old fashioned way
>only need 300 mega energy for MetagrossI was expecting like 500 or something.
Ok but why would I want Metagross to have a ghost attack? What's the point? Isn't it better to just give him psychic or steel moves.It would be cool for Dynamax maybe but I can't use the shadow claw metagross for that.
>>58339546>onlymore than one raid to get a mega evolve is too much
I was working in the gym late one nightWhen my eyes beheld an eerie sightFor my pocket monster, from his raid egg, began to riseAnd suddenly, to my surprisehe did the Meteor Mash(The Meteor Mash) it was a Steel type smash(He did the Mash) it caught on in a cannon of flash(He did the Mash) he did the Meteor MashFrom professor Willow’s laboratory in the far off eastTo Candela’s bedroom, where the walkchads feastThe carfats all came from their humble abodesTo get a jolt from my Electrodesthey did the Meteor Mash(The Meteor Mash) it was a TDO smash(They did the Mash) it caught on in a cannon of flash (They did the Mash) they did the Meteor MashThe spoofbros were having funThe raid party had just begunThe guests included Sierra, a landwhale, and his sonThe scene was firing, all were digging the soundsCliff on chains, backed by his baying houndsThe Blanche-bangers were about to arriveWith their vocal group, The Valor-Kicker Fivethey played the Meteor Mash(The Meteor Mash) it was a mega smash(They played the Mash) it caught on in a cannon of flash(They played the Mash) they played the Meteor MashOut from his balloon, Giovanni’s voice did ringSeems he was troubled by just one thingOpened the basket and shook his fistAnd said, "Whatever happened to my Shadow twist?"it's now the Meteor Mash(The Meteor Mash) and it's a Hoenn smash(It's now the Mash) it's caught on in a cannon of flash(It's now the Mash) it's now the Meteor MashNow everything's cool, Giovanni’s a part of the bandAnd my Meteor Mash is the hit of the landFor you, the players, this Mash was meant tooWhen you get to my raid, tell them Gochad sent youthen you can Meteor Mash(The Meteor Mash) and do my DPS smash(Then you can Mash) you'll catch on in a cannon of flash(Then you can Mash) then you can Meteor MashMash good!Easy, Little Timmy, you impetuous, young boyMash good! (Meteor Mash)
I really dislike the raid event culture. It’s 90% carfats moving as a group and sitting while they raid. Fucking go and walk around while you mindlessly tap tap tap LMAO
>>58339637poorfag seething
>>58339616It’s pretty sad that mega meta doesn’t hit over 6k
did like 15 raids and no shiny fuck off
>>58339637I would rather drive to where the gyms are in my town, have it take onl 30 minutes and then I drive back to my neighborhood and walk around there.
>>58338751I once used a guaranteed lucky trade on a swinub but that was because he had nothing I wanted, I gave him a registeel
>>58339650There was a buy hitting the bong between raids and blasting metal in his beat up car. Hedonistic excess. Disconnect even just a little and use your legs.
>>58339608You can actually get it thereIt's supposed to work as energy acceleration for your dmax hard hitteryou still need to evolve a dmax beldum for that though
>>58339613I guess I'm too traumatized from all the other bullshit. Having to do like 5 for big magma boy and whale, double that for the fucking transformations with Kyurem, Necrozma, and the wolves. Literal RNG bullshit not letting me get a single Origina Dialga or Palkia with their super moves. Kyurem had the same thing but at least I got plenty with Glaciate. Compared to all of that fucking garbage, doing just two simple raids is a blessing. Takes no time at all.
>>58339791skill issue
Oh baby
>>58339870zamn xxl hundo
>wayfarer is testing street corners and bus stops as pokestopshabbening
ts is so ass
>>58339912I already have a ton of bus stops as stops around here but it’s shit like “the bus stop hand rail ‘art’” and some times not even that
how come defitt is so inconsistent?
>>58340104We use the sock here.
>>58340129I use my legs and walk.
>>58340129you cant expect me to shake a sock for 30 mins
>>58340129she puts the sock on my dong and boingboingboing!!!
>>58340104for me its FitAs
>>58339637It really depends on the gym layout of the town, sometimes it better to walk and sometimes it’s better to drive. I’m just lucky that my work has two gyms right there that I can raid when I work. Today was light unfortunately I did all the raids I could but I only had one partner there so I couldn’t just set it and forget it like during the necrozma raids a few months back
>>58340104Right now Adventure Sync seems to be inconsistent, sometimes it just doesn't sync movement data.Lots of weird problems with the 0.381.x updates on Android, no clue about iOS version.
Am I the only one who can't do playground photos anymore?The app glitches when I try to do heart photos, and it crashes entirely for playground photos.
>>58340313oh i see. its working fine for what it is then, im slowly putting a dent into these party challenges cheesing the 2km walk task each time
>>58338749>I know that the official ones like Go Plus don't count, not sure about 3rd party ones.Third-party auto-catchers can, at best, copy the behavior of official auto-catchers:- Go Plus -> Most auto-catchers- Go Plus + -> Don't think there's a single oneThat is to say that if the official ones don't do it, the unofficial ones won't either.
>>58338761>and a good alternative to Gigantamax Gengar.No it's not lol. There isn't a single Pokémon who can beat or even compare to Gigantamax Gengar as a Ghost type attacker in terms of damage. Not a single one. Not even Calyrex-Shadow Rider.You CAN use Shadow Claw Metagross as a budget option for Ghost type damage for sure (and you can definitely use it as a tank that deals chip damage with good results) but it's ludicrous to even imply it's an alternative to Gmax Gengar.>Long term, it probably doesn't matter too much since Niantic rushed max battles to their peak, and Blissey / Zacian / Zamazenta / Eternatus are good in most scenarios meaning you don't need dedicated counters so much.Nigger, what are you saying? You COULD say that tanks (like Blissey or Zamazenta) are good in most scenarios, and you'd be mostly right, but saying that you don't need dedicated COUNTERS is retarded faggot shit.
>>58339013>Iirc the distance limit on buddy candies functions similarly to the 30 minute cooldown on feeding a gym defender up to 10 berries per cooldown (up to 10 defenders too).Mind explaining this a bit more?
>>58339038The hard cap is for candies and whatever else that requires walking. Candies, eggs (don't listen to what that other anon is saying) and max particles. You can still walk and it will register the distance, but you won't get to use the perks that walking provides.
>>58339110Go to pvpoke, look if you have any of the top 50 mons of any given league and use those. That's it. IVs don't matter in 99% of cases so just do that. Also, don't forget to tank, picrel
>>58339616Extremely kino anon, thanks for posting
>>58340314>playground photosHuh?
>>58338708gps joysticks have auto excellent curveballs
>>58340666Special pokestops where you can pose multiple Pokemons at the same time for photos.
>>58340696Wthell, I never knew this existed
>have to usr go++ most of the time because i live in a very car dependent city>auto catch only works on poke balls, not greats or ultras REEEEEEE
>>58340828Huh? What do you mean lil niggy? The Go Plus +'s selling point IS the fact that it can use every ball type (you gotta confirm it in the settings and it can use 1 ball type at a time).
I need Scrafty stickers.
>>58340833auto catch is pokeball only. to catch with the great and ultra ball you have to press the button, which is not automatic. it's inconvenient for driving.
Just realized one of mu neighbors added me from raids today. Not a fan of this, in the least.
>>58340849
>my guy came way too lategod niandick dropped the ball on so many megas>>58328701
>>58340849Oh fug, yeah you're right. I modded my Go Plus + so the auto catch works with every ball, but its normal behaviour is to catch with normal pokeballs only.
>>58340873Same, don't like having people who love close to me as friends, so I never accept friend requests from raids whose gym was in my area.
>>58340852Whoops, >>58340895 was meant for you.
>Getting to the point where I unironically have to hide how far and good I am at the game to avoid making the normies feel badFeels weird to think I am probably like a top 2% of players despite being f2p. That and having to pretend like 80% of my shinies and hundos don't exist. Also I have to avoid having to explain to them that getting 13 shinies during a community day like the minimum. Oh and then there are the nice, but very sad whales who like spend 100s of dollars and still have mid at best accounts somehow. And then I have to remember like 90% of players can't trio, let alone duo most legendaries since no one invest in shadowmons
>>58340905It’s always strange when people say they can’t get many shinies during a com day. I guess I live in a semi-urban area, but yeah, 13 for an hour or so of walking is pretty average and I’m more than happy to walk around the city for longer than that. The thing that gets me is when redditors make posts saying X shiny is turned off because they didn’t get one in 10 minutes or something. If you guys were better at posting news I wouldn’t have to slum it up in silphroad and expose myself to those posts
>>58340905How do I unsubscribe from your gay blogs, nigger?
Caught this lil guy at home. Too bad it’s no longer relevant. Third rank 1 GBL I’ve caught at home. Home spawns have been great for me this year.
>>58341028GG anon
>>58340146>new LoreleiI don't care if it's slop, I need all of her I can get.>>58340905>>58340935You guys gotta remember that luck still plays a huge factor. 1 in roughly 20 is a wonderful boost but it's still no guarantee. There's been CDs where I got like 30 goddamn shinies and there's been ones where I struggled to even reach double digits.
>>58340905>to avoid making the normies feel badlol flex on them tard who gives a fuck
>>58340905normies don't play. I once attended a normie checkin for the recent eevee re-re-rerun CD, and they were moving so slow and standing still a ton. Don't think they even knew fast catch was a thing
>>58340905Imagine caring what other people think.If they give any sort of slack for your good account just tell them that the game motivates you to stay fit.
>>58341531Quick catching is just too sweaty for me. I'd rather not.
