What a fail of a season and it just started. At least locally the player base really dies down, so you’d think the better bonuses would come when the northern hemisphere’s winter to stir up some hype.

I believe so, yeah. A friend of mine bought one like that and was able to play without much of a problem (his got very hot after a while though)

Got around 200 Cranidos, none very good. What should I do with them? Guaranteed XL candy trading is over, is the best option now to wait a month until double transfer candy is back?

Save a few of the highest attack ones, its one of the best non-mega/ non legendary attackers.

they need enough ram though. 8gb minimum although the game states you need 4gb but it will run very slow at 4gb but if you want the best fps you ideally want 12gb and snapdragon 8 for the best performance but since Niantic never bothered to update the unity engine for pogo, the game continues to run like shit for so many years even on the best phones. you're better off purchasing a refurbished phone off of ebay or amazon that would perform better than a Walmart phone.

Maybe no. I've got an iPhone and the game is crashing a few times a day. Checking the debug logs it's "outofmemory event," and the frequency's getting worse with each patch. It usually dies when I start a gym fight or a raid, which means my first 'mon just idles while I'm rebooting.

And now the new weekly team quest thing is also throwing me "outofmemory" events. I thinking it happens when the game loads up new models+textures since it doesn't bother deallocating the ones it loaded before -- typical fucking gamedevs thinking memory is infinite.

How much difference does this make?
>>
>>58693776
2x
>>
>>58693506
You get +1 candy if the distance between traded Pokémon's caught location is >10km, and +2 candy with 1 guaranteed XL if >100km.

If you're playing multi accounts and doing mutual trades, a straight transfer is only 1 candy with a chance for 1 XL, but a trade then a transfer is 2-4 candies with chances for 1-2 XL.

That and the trade rerolls might give you luckies or hundos.

>any of these eevee evo attacks mean anything for MAX???
They don't. In max battles, you only care about mons who are tanks/healers or attackers. The former needs a 0.5s attack to be viable (and doesn't use charged attacks), the latter need to have high attack/have a Gmax form and it's only used during the max phase.

Every power creep legendary/fusion will only give you their currency if the raid has them in their special form already, which are usually never saved for week-long raid rotations.

a little drama in the wayfarer forum
regulars and ambassadors are having a meltdown over the staff helping to reinstate a neighborhood sign
>>
>>58701802
Wayfarer anon, do you know what I should do if I want to get rid of a gym in order to create another one closer to my home?
The stop I want to turn into a gym already has the most likes in the cell, with +3 months of age, so my question is more about what steps to take to get rid of the current gym. I read that you have to go though the forums but I believe there is an automated way now by submitting pics and explanations on a Niantic website (sort of like a form), do you have any info or guidance on this?
>>
>>58701880
well you can just report it in game
the problem is what reason you have to remove a gym, they will not budget on any reason aside from that its not there anymore or its unsafe (like literal in the middle of the road unsafe) or if its on someones house
>>
>>58701892
To add a bit more context, I already got a gym removed before so I kind of already faintly know what to do (but I did this ~3 years ago and I don't know if anything changed + I don't 100% remember the steps).
>Report it in-game
That will fail 99/100. In fact, that's actually the first step to be able to report it in the forums. You need to receive the email that says that the report wasn't accepted.
>Reason
I'm going with the "no longer there" option. I took some pics that look pretty convincing, but I don't know if I have to go through the forum or there's another alternative. The forum is pretty fucky because there are many jannies there who patrol 24/7, hence why I'm asking if this sort of form website (https://pokemongo.com/report-location) actually works or if you've heard about it working.
>>
>>58701912
ive never tried, all the removals i have done where just straight in app and they all worked. the reasons i gave were just what i have seen on the forum
your best bet is the app or that report location forum
if you go to the niantic forum you will definitely get 3 regulars and 3 ambassadors geo locating your stop before a staff member shows up
>>
>>58701927
>all the removals i have done where just straight in app and they all worked
Very interesting, I haven't tried using the in-game report system in quite some time. Do you have any "tricks" you used? Last I checked and read, it was almost impossible to have a stop/gym removed because the automated system shut down most requests.
>the reasons i gave were just what i have seen on the forum
Could you expand on this a little bit more?
>if you go to the niantic forum you will definitely get 3 regulars and 3 ambassadors geo locating your stop before a staff member shows up
Yeah, I remember it took like 3-4 weeks before a Niantic representative said anything in chat. I was lucky enough not to attract unwanted attention from these regulars. I wanted to check what I wrote back then but it seems everything has been wiped (when I entered the forums a couple of months ago it welcomed me as if it had been my first time there).
>>
>>58701943
i think you should just try in app, they have a faster response time these days. all my in app reports i selected it was on private property, didnt even write an explanation or add a picture. a few days later i even got an email that my report was rejected, but it still disappeared

niantic staff is extremely lenient when it comes to interpreting the criteria for removal. they are usually in favor of keeping rather than removing. you have to go to great lengths to provide evidence to get them to remove something. since your reports is dubious its best to keep trying the in app option to avoid any real person interaction

but staff replies on that official forum are usually faster than that these days like a maybe 10 days at most. but sometimes things get completely ignored and only get replied to after weeks. so if you are super desperate and have extremely convincing pictures you can risk appealing on the forum
>>
>>58701994

>>58704919
>strictly playing Ultra League, an actual skill league.
I've found Ultra League to be the opposite of a skill-based league, which is why I used to tank in it so much. If you're struggling to win in Great League with that team, then you're probably better off coasting with free wins in that league.

Questin about tankin: So between lvl 18 and 19 you need 20 wins.

If I end up losing a game so I can't complete it in 4 sets, do I just continue trying my hardest until I get my 20 wins, then tank the remaining set OR tank the remainder of that set to lower my mmr. What's most effective?

Hello,

Must the pokemon that are granted special moves upon full evolution during this CD have to be caught either today or tomorrow? Or could they have been caught prior to today,Saturday, in order to be awarded their special move?

Today, i HATCHED, not caught, a quaxly with 14,14,14 IVs at around 10am est. is this quaxly eligible for hydro cannon if fully evolved before 9pm Sunday?


Thanks!

It doesn't really matter all that much. I suggest you try to reach rank 20 asap because the rewards there are better (mainly the encounters). If you follow the usual patter of 4 wins, 0 wins, 4 wins, 0 wins, 4 wins, you will end up slowly lowering your elo and not have to necessarily lose just to do so. You should keep these 2 things in mind:
1) Early season rank 20 can be kinda rough because it's filled with either tankers or tryhards (elo 1400-1900, rank 20 master league is fucked rn)
2) You need to get 25 wins at rank 19 to get to rank 20 (implemented this season, might be here to stay).

I have a Pawmot, Gastrodon, and Toucannon for great league now.

Pretty solid team I think.Probably gets rofl stomped by the actual top tiers eventually, but I have good coverage and flexibility. Gastrodon is a solid lead too I think.

Anything in particular I would fold too?

>>58707741

I'd assume swapping Toucannon for Corviknight would improve my bulk considerably. But then I'd have two ground fast attackers which does kinda suck sometimes.

I really hope the fact that this is effectively the first interlude season since they made major changes over 3 years ago is evidence that they're gonna rework the system. Info from Pokemod seems to be implying that they're gonna rework other systems as well (mainly megas), which would be good since the game has felt pretty stale since the biome update (aka the ugly avatar update) a little over 1.5 years ago.

Flabebe, Rookidee and Pikipek were the big 3. Among the rerun CDs the most important was probably Ralts (because of the candy, not for the move), then Toto and Machop. But they were available just the 10 last mins of each hour.

Playing for a year and I finally have the mega-energy to evolve a couple 'mons: Beedrill (14/11/15) and Diancie (10/15/13). Should I wait until I can find 'mons with better IVs before I use a year's worth of saving-up ?

no, once you've mega evod one of them, you can walk anything of that species for more energy
for beedrill that's 1km and you're never going to get another diancie so there's no point in thinking about getting another one
>>
>>58708964
>Should I wait until I can find 'mons with better IVs before I use a year's worth of saving-up ?
No, you should get mega evolvin. Unless you were planning on using Mega Beedrill in battle, you will just use it for the poison/bug candy, so getting a maxed out mega is a must. Talking about Diancie, we're getting the shiny this upcoming Go Tour, so that's your only chance to get another one. We are very likely also getting a lot of Diancie mega energy from the Masterwork Research, so you could Mega Diancie it every other day or so, so that you don't deplete your mega energy as fast.

>>58709038
florges is a passable fairy attacker if you absolutely have nothing else, but not because of the cday move, and flying type just isn't that useful outside of megafug, so toucannon being one of the best non-legendaries isn't all that compelling
i guess those two would be useful if you were new, but then florges gets immediately replaced because ralts happened, too

Corviknight gets much worse with steel wing. Its damage is coming from its charged attacks anyway, if they resist ground it's only 1 damage per turn you're losing out on.
>>
>>58710242
I see. I guess if you're gonna have two fast attackers of any type Ground is the one since it hits so much stuff. And 2 of the 3 things that are resistant to Ground are then weak to flying, so Corviknight still has no trouble against them.

I just have no replacement for Gastrodon or Furret right now. Well, a Toucannon or Pawmot, but those just don't measure up.

great league = who can spam and RPS the most, shitted up by content creator teams for all the idiots who cant team build
Master League = paypigs who invest in the most powerful pokemon
Ultra League = Spamming doesnt win, the pokemon actually have bulk (you can actually play out of bad algorithm leads). No EZ mode guides from content creators on how to build teams.
Why would you use a so-called no skill league to tank? Why not just put 10 CP in Master League? and then Feast on all the no skilled players in Ultra League. Your logic makes ZERO sense.

Are you retarded? Ultra League has always been and still continues to be the charge move spamming format. They nerfed Giratina like 5 times because of how powerful that spammy tank was, and even then I used to still 5/5 in ace with it as a lead back when I cared about climbing.
>you can actually play out of bad algorithm leads
You can do that in Great and Master League with like 50 battles-worth of practice, no skill required.
>No EZ mode guides from content creators on how to build teams.
Have you never watched Homeslice Henry?
>Why not just put 10 CP in Master League? and then Feast on all the no skilled players in Ultra League. Your logic makes ZERO sense..
Because Ultra League is boring and braindead, I don't need any more stardust or rare candy, and a lot of my favorite cup mons are now top-tier this season for some reason, so I wanna take full advantage of them while I can. I also hate most of the top Pokémon in Ultra League this season and would rather fight Azuumers and mirror matches than these types of teams.

Homeslice, like every content creator, barely plays Ultra League. They spam Great League and Master League. There are NO content creator teams spamming up Ultra League changing and defining the Meta. It's full of Free Thinkers, who dont need a guide to hold their hand.
Giratina spams and it does NO fricken damage, unlike in the Great League when Not Effective attacks take half the HP. Give me a break. Come up with something better. NVM, you sound really dumb, dont waste my time with moronic takes.

Yes; to most "Free Thinkers", Ultra League is so easy to comprehend that you don't need a guide to figure it out. To me, that suggests it's not a very skill-intensive league, well, that alongside my experience with it.
>unlike in the Great League when Not Effective attacks take half the HP.
What Pokemon are you using in Great League? In my experience GL Corviknight takes maybe 20% more damage from the average charge move than UL Corviknight. Have you considered investing in a Bastiodon or Carbink? Or even a lvl. 50 Azumarill?

Master League is the least paypiggy league because the mons that you use there are generally also top tier raid attacker, so by investing in them you also invest in the PvP league. Ultra League is THE definite paypigger league because most (pvp shit) mons need to be lvl 50, at least Great Leagues Mons are cheaper.

Pokémon GO has announced a new feature that is gradually rolling out. This feature is a new level of Friendship as well as Remote Trades. This is gradually rolling out, starting today with New Zealand
When you become Forever Friends with other players, you'll be able to Remote Trade. You can keep engaging with Forever Friends to earn more Friendship Points to get more experience and more Remote Trades, but you can only have one Remote Trade available with a Forever Friend at a time
Friendship Pointsare to be added to track friendship progression. You can earn one Friendship Point a day with a friend
With Remote Trades, each player takes turns to select up to 3 of a friend's tagged Pokémon to receive. These wishlists are sent to the other trailers and when each player selects it, they can then review and confirm or cancel. The following Pokémon can't be traded in Remote Trades: Pokémon caught in the last 30 days, Previously traded Pokémon, Shadow Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, Pokémon defending Gyms or Power Spots, Pokémon currently set as your buddy, Actively Mega-Evolved Pokémon, Fused Pokémon, Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta, Pokémon placed at Pokémon Playgrounds,
The number of friends players can have will be increased from 450 to 650
There will be Timed Research from December 15th through 29th which contains an encounter with Scatterbug as well as Experience, Stardust and more

From the sound of it, it seems like its just the same restrictions as normal trades with a 30-day wait time slapped on, right? Hopefully meltan/melmetal will still be tradeable, all the shiny ones I got had terrible stats and who knows when they'll let it out of shiny-lock jail again

The way they phrased the new friendship rank stuff is kinda wonky, so is remote trading something that you randomly unlock like lucky trades? Or is it something that you get after a set number of interactions? And how many interactions will it take to reach the new rank in the first place?

All 3 have their own meta and play style

GBL - most popular, easiest entry for new players and the highest variety of pokemon you can choose from. Low CP keeps legendaries and mythicals at bay which can lead to swingy one sided battles. It gets the most coverage because the world championships are done in GBL. Any try hard and wanna be who thinks hes got a shot at going to Hawaii for PoGo plays here. Best league for casual games with friends and people looking to take on the world, as theres so mamy options your opps can bring.
UBL - Faster paced battles. Swapping and switching out is more strategic here but it has its own meta you can pick up the patterns of what people use. Battles can be one sided with low level legendaries being introduced. These legendaries feel like they ignore ivs and can make battles feel one sided but popular picks are generally spammed alot so if you run a counter meta team, you can do well. Under rated league imo, lots of fun to play but it took me a while to get used to its pace and play style.
MBL - Feels most like rock paper scissors. Battles play out in 3 defined acts as the 3 pokemon are paired up and played out. These battles I find to be, maybe not predictable but they pan out in an orderly fashion. Most people bring the same 2 with slight changes in their 3rd choice. Wins are blow outs and losses are landslides. These pokemone are ones the trainer has had for years and built up XLs to max out or recent grabs they paid out of pocket to max out by spamming raids. Armoured dogs totally fucked the meta and now every list is Zacian Palkia with some random 3rd choice. Armoured dogs shoukd be Mega Master Ball exclusives. Mega Masterball League is way better than standard MBL.

What's up, pal? We have 22 days until we're best friends. I have a shiny Zekrom I'd be willing to trade. Also, are you a big Zarude fan?

I just realized all the rank 19 rewards are encounters, so there's no reason for me to care about 4+ wins per set anymore, so now I can get 2-3 wins per set without regret that I didn't get to rank 20 by the end of GBW.

All I do is get ready for gbl, if I see something with over 90% iv for gbl I save it in case its viable someday, and give it the pvpoke movesets when its time. Some of these have never been relevant but I worked on them before I understood what I was doing, but I can always make a winning team now.

Would pvp be better if there was a league with max CP someone between 3000 and 3500?
Just out of the range of gazillion CP legendaries, but in the range where bulk doesn't dominante the rankings and where for many mons you prefer hundos over 0/15/15.

I wouldn’t say a big fan, I just choose a legendary or mega mon and just leave them as a buddy for a while without thinking about it. Zarude is the one I gave the silver bottle cap to as well and I need to have it as my buddy to get the boosted stats I’m going for
