potentially-retarded question here:does the "daily limit" for how many coins that you can earn from a Pokémon defending a gym (50 per day) apply to each day that a Pokémon is sitting in the gym, or just to that one day when it returns to you and brings you the coins that it earned?like, if I have a Pokemon defend a gym for three days, would it bring me back 150 coins, or would it only bring back 50 since that's the limit for the day during which it came back to me?
>>59011386You get 50 coins max per day for gym defense.Doesn't matter if the thing that get s knocked out sat there for half a day or half a year
>>59011386the latter, and it gets even worse than that. if you have, say, ten pokemon in gyms all at once and all ten get knocked out in the same day, you only get 50 coins off the first one knocked out and 0 coins from the other nine.
>>59011386use your gacha brain and you will know the answer
>>59011407>>59011429>>59011447grimthanks, guysgonna stop stuffing my pokes full of berries now
>>59011540you might as well keep doing it for the progress on the berry feeding medal
>pokemon go is 30 years oldIt's GOver...
>enter raidcrash>beat raidcrash>send giftscrash>attack gymcash>pvpcrash>try to join a weekly challenge groupcrash>open the research pagecrash i guess i finally have to upgrade from my iphone 7.....
my gf claims everyone is guaranteed a shiny ditto from one of the quests/research but i'm skeptical. i asked ai and it couldn't even understand my question. so i come to you, is everyone guaranteed a shiny ditto so long as they do the special research task?
what should i make my perfect eevee into
>>59011661>is everyone guaranteed a shiny ditto so long as they do the special research task?No
>>59011763whatever your favorite shiny is
>>59011658I'm on iphone 6s and have been playing the game just fine over the years, but since yesterday opening the research menu has consistently resulted in a crash. Not gonna get that Mewtwo at this rate.
>>59011763nothing is useful. the only situational use are the dynamax versions.
>>59011821>>59011658I'm on iPhone 13 and this shit crashes often for me too, over this last week at least.When it crashes after beating a raid, go back to the gym asap especially if it's a remote invite you should still be able to click on it and go catch the pogerman
>>59011540Gym feeding is a great way to farm star dust and make bag space
shiny shadows arent held back anymore, if its shiny in the wild it can also be shiny shadow allegedly
>>59011763The one you want to fuck most would be the most obvious answer, given that they have little use otherwise.
>>59012085im pretty sure they meant that if the shadow shiny specifically has been unlocked via rocket leader then any shadow of that species from a grunt/raid can be shiny. even though they made grunt shinies a feature a few years ago not everything was unlocked iirc
>>59011763umbreon is the only useful 4* eevee even if it isnt that good anymore in ul
>>59012135Doesn’t that require it to have its community day move though?
>>59012148who doesnt have a dozen elite tms sitting around at this point
>>59012160
What's the definitive moveset for Smeargle nowadays?
>>59012529there is none because little league is dead
>>59012130>>59012562i stand corrected
>>59012562>>59012567They fixed it recently with the new season, same with evolution being able to be shiny in the wild now as long as their forms have been released as shiny already.
>>59012148It doesn't. Also every Eeveelution is shit if you're an old player/have good attackers. The best ones are Glaceon, Espeon and Sylveon
WHERE ARE MY POWER SPOTS
>>59012780Eternatus ate them.
>>59011763Into whatever you want honey
>got 100 zygarde and never have to do another route againfeels good mantoo bad its going to rot away until gmoltres gets nerfed cause that thing is too good not to use in ul and they dont mesh together too well
Woke up early and finally got to host a couple of raids before they closed for the night tonight. Learned hosting raids on genie ALWAYS takes at least 20 minutes to fill no matter if the que is 200 people or 20Got a decent pinsir, the latias was a shit 1 star thoughthanks for reading my blog
>>59013556why not host on leekduck? takes 5-10 min
>>59013603because i dont have it set up and this was my first time successfully hosting a raid and had no idea it took so long
>>59013613it takes two photo uploads to set up leekduck
>>59013615
>>59013617it takes less time to set up leekduck, host a raid on leekduck, beat the raid than to host on genie
>>59013774And how was I supposed to know that before hosting my first raid on genie? genie is what is always recommended here
>>59013603>>59013615QRD me on Leekduck hosting. I've hosted like 200+ times on Genie and I've seen the good and the bad. How does Leekduck compare?
>>59013836Basic idea's the same, you host and others join you online. Difference being that genie puts you into a queue so you gotta wait your turn. Not so bad for events like Go Tour/Fest and raid days where the remote limits are significantly higher and people are joining like crazy so you're not left waiting too long. Of course, it was way better when there wasn't limit in the first place, but alas.Leekduck is essentially, you make a room for what you wanna host, throw it out into the ocean and hope other raiders take the bait. It's significantly more luck-based but when the cards are right, your room will fill up almost immediately and the general limit is up to 9 others and opposed to 5 you get for regular raids on genie. Of course, to make an account you gotta give two screenshots of your profile. Not a hassle at all, but more effort than genie. Plus when demands are low, it can be almost impossible to get a room going for a specific raid you want. Genie is good in that regard, it lumps literally everyone who wants to fight a specific boss so you can pick up any stragglers if it's, say, the end of the day.
>last page of volcanion research>walk 2 candies out of your volcanionBut I don’t have my year old Volcanion anymore. Will I just have this trash on my research page forever now?
>>59014054What? You can't toss a mythical.
>>59014140Home
>>59014150Put him back
>>59014039>more effort than genie.genie has you screenshot all of your mons you use to raid lol
Does alolan Diglett look weirdly bulgy for anyone else?
What do they mean by “other trainer?”
>>59014242Bullshit, I raid constantly and it's never once asked me to do anything of the sort.
>>59014320both times i downloaded it it told me to screenshot all my raiders to determine if i can actually contribute to 5* raids
Yeah buddy been waiting forever for this to show up
>>59014322Maybe it's something new, I dunno. I've had genie for like 2-3 years at this point and it's never come up.
It's so tiresome.
>>59014387perkele
>>59014403Dont download my car pls
>>59014417
>>59011540You have around a 5% chance per berry to get a candy for whatever you feed it to. Not usually super useful but it can save you a few rare candies for things like larvesta or snom.Can also be nice if you've got excess gold berries and want to discourage other people from flipping a gym until the next day, most people won't waste their time dealing with a bunch of blisseys and slakings and shit when they're at full energy>>59013556Depends on your time zone. If you're in east asia or australia you can usually get quick queues whenever raids change since you're first in line, or shortly before they change if you're on the pacific coast. Getting instant queues during the last hour of raid days is nice :^)>>59014322I know there's the option to screenshot your team if you want but I've been able to completely ignore it, have you actually tried just going to the main menu->raid then either joining or hosting from there? Or does the thing you're talking about just pop up when you start the app and refuse to go away?I've heard genie works differently on iphones since they don't let apps scan the screen normally like you can on android, dunno if that applies to you or if it might be related to the issue
>open the game>suddenly there's "bonus tasks" for the pass, 3500 points worthYooooDid they hear all the complaining? It's practically guaranteed to get 80 now. Just doing the daily task (15 catches), plus these, would basically be enough by itself. No need for grinding the cap every day + weekend grinding.
>>59014477liar liar plats for hire
>>59014497I am many things but I'm no liar>exactly enough points to get my 151st Kanto catch, Tauros, todayBased
>>59014502>>59014477Oh apparently it's appearing for players at 10am local time, which seems to track
>>59014522That makes sense that’s when the February pass finally expires. I literally just held out to get the double candy boost for the giratina
How we doing, Tankbros?
Has anyone actually seen any advertised kanto lego birbs in the wild?
>>59014740this isn't valid anymore because of battle thursdays retard>>59014265an account aided and left your group before it completed. nothing like antics to keep the game playable>>59014477>Did they hear all the complaining?you think they hear complaining? its their metrics told them that a sizable amount of players were going to miss mewtwo and that they were headed straight for a PR disaster. just another day at niantic.
>>59014982>this isn't valid anymore because of battle thursdays retardWhy not faggot
>>59011230My favorite Kantomon is altaria too
turns out the zygarde jacket is available
>>59015050No fucking way LMAO
>>59011821Aaaand we're back, research menu works with no issues. Wonder what that shit was about.
With the 30th anniversary bonus task points double on Monday as well?
>>59015298It should, yeah
>>59015298Should be pretty well done before then with the weekends being uncapped.
>>59015337Thank you.>>59015341Sadly, I work Saturday and Sunday so I'm gimped on the weekend. Monday will be crunch time for me.Thankful for the 2x points.
>>59015346Guessing you don't work near a stop to throw a lure on and auto catch while at work? It's basically what I do throughout the week to help out with ranking up.
>>59015352unfortunately not. Gotta work with what I've got.
>>59015356Ahh that sucks. We lucked out in Summer last year in getting a stop for our workplace finally, so I just leave GO on all day autospinning and catching. Hopefully you can blitz it all done.
>>59014740take the 40404 pill instead of following the retard chart
>>59015606It's ok to be retarded, anon. You go 40404 AFTER reaching rank 20, that way you actually farm good rewards. Your first objective as a tank (and probably anyone else) is to reach rank 20 asap.
>>59015614>you NEED to be rank 20 asap because... you just do, okay?
>>59015624>Better encounter pool>Access to legendaries>Almost twice as much stardust
>>59015698>doesnt matter>two a season max if the game feels generous>valid but candy is worth more than dust
>>59015050I'm not surprised, it's been that way for a while now. Almost every single new piece of clothing or emote initially locked behind a pass now has been put into the regular shop immediately afterward.
>>59015767>Almost every single new piece of clothing or emote initially locked behind a pass now has been put into the regular shop immediately afterward.where are the uncensored outfits? aren't they all about diversity?
>>59015710>Duuuuuude get worse rewards just because duuuudeDo retarded faggots really?
>>59014242>>59014322It's not mandatory and that's only useful for remote raiding, not hosting
>>59016153>where are the uncensored outfits?Huh?
>>59016155candy>dust
I had over 6500 Pokemon with nicknames for IVs and attacks and Scopely somehow managed to fuck up how they were displayed. How the fuck do you manage to mess this shit up?
>>59016547>somehow managed to fuck up how they were displayedyou say that like they didn't do it on purpose to fuck with everyone
>>59016547deserved for doing that soulless shit
Speaking of deserved, pgsharp isn't working again
>>59016720give it a few hours while the devs update it, this happens when niantic drops a required update without warning
>>59016724I feel like that's been happening more as of late
>>59016547>I had over 6500 Pokemon with nicknames for IVs and attacksI don't think I have even 200 pokemon worth keeping, and I was autistic and built unique six-mon parties for each type before dynamax was released
>>59016744pack it up, evidently one of the devs sold themselves to niantic
How do i get the 10km Eggs with Hawlucha?
Is there any event this weekend?
>>59016825you only had last weekend to stock them
>>59016825You can't. Only way was to spin stops during the Kalos Tour and hope you got a 10km egg.
>>59016836>>59016839FUG, guess I will get myself a mexican buddy and hope for a remote trade
>>59016867We might end up getting Mega Hawlucha faster than that
>>59016867just find the hot pokegirls in your area
>>59016867If you’re in the mass area I’ve got a few to trade
Over the road to kalos went down to 700 candies to boost a few caught legendaries and now just dicking around doing tasks I’ve completely replenished what I used
>remote trade>game has been constantly spamming me saying THE REMOTE TRADE EXPIRED even though it completed days ago>turns out the only way to stop this is to open the menu, go to the notification pop up and physically view the notification from the listWhat a weird fucking issue.
GBL is unplayable again, not even worth the stardust.
>>59017633Not sure how you guys deal with PvP in general.
>>59017633Unplayable how? It's almost exclusively insta-win now
>>59017680It's using the same dogshit system rocket battles use. Laggy and just feels like shit.
Idk where else to ask but: Have there been any other GPS map phone games that have come out lately? I enjoyed Pikmin Bloom for a little before deleting after getting bored with how little there actually is in the game. I used to play POGO a ton but tired of that after several years as well
>>59017686It was unironically suicide tier during the Thursday of the Road to Kalos.
>>59017700>Have there been any other GPS map phone games that have come out lately?There's Monster Hunter (also from Niantic) and some other chink-ish clones (some with monsters and some with dinosaurs) which I don't think are very good.
>>59017700you can still play ingress i think
>>59017042its ok to say you drove around with a pokegoplus you don't have to be all secretive about it>>59017063do not redeem>>59017633good news GBL is just throwing matches
>>59014242It's not mandatory in most cases. It just gives you more battle points (not host points) and also puts you in lobbies with more other people who also verified their damage, which will increase the quality of the lobby. I say it's always worth doing, especially because it remembers your previous verification if a legendary comes back. It does become mandatory if you want to do smaller size lobbies for the ultra "hard" bosses like primal/mega legendaries or super mega raids.There is straight up no verification system for max battles.Pokegenie has 2 point/leveling systems. Battle points are rewarded for joining battles, and going up in battle level improves your matchmaking quality (dunno exactly what that means but I think it's putting you with other experienced players) and unlocks the ability to reward the host with more host points.Host points are earned through hosting. Going up in host level also improves match quality and reduces the time you have to wait in host queue (I don't know what that means either. I don't think it means you get to "cut in line" since I haven't noticed my queues getting faster, but I have no idea what else it could be).
>>59017700Monster Hunter Now is really good. Despite being a Niantic game the events have been really generous and lots of qol stuff is added every update. And its fun.
>>59011230Caught a dittoOnly took me 7 yearsAny clue when the next shiny meltan event is?
>>59019320It's been a few years at this point I think since they've last enabled Meltan to be shiny, so who knows. They haven't even brought it up themselves in ages, and there's nothing listed on the site nor have they answered people on social media asking about Meltan's inclusion.
>>59019320Shiny Meltan has been superseded by shiny Gimmighoul, sorry
>>59019380Gimmighoul is gay and shiny huntable in the plza dlc
When are they gonna allow the safari ball transfers to home like they promised they would?
>>59019436Probably the next home update which should be sometime in or before April when Champions releases.
>peek at my daily incense report>sees galarian zapdos was caughtoh, neat
>first Mewtwo I ever catch is a Shiny>it's also 2* crap>no special background so I can transfer it up to Home>but also Game Shark hates Mewtwo and it's been powercrept to hell and backDid I get monkey's paw'd?
>>5901932010th year anniversary event seems like a good chance
>>59019759Seems like it, but it's not listed on the site as a returning mon and so far I'm, along with others, are having no luck with asking them about its return.
>>59019779Did you mean the ongoing 30th anniversary event? I'm thinking about GO's 10th around July
>>59019789Honestly both. It's been almost three years since they've really done anything with Meltan
>>59014039You don't need to send screenshots to leekduck, just type in your name, code and level that's allLeekduck is more lenient, nothing holding you back from starting while in genie you might have to wait for that one shitter to get replaced... sometimes twice.Leekduck doesn't really have a questionnaire but you can give a thumbs up or down which does nothing at allThe rating system in leekduck might as well not exist so no stressing over it, 10 man lobbies are much less likely to fail than genie 6 man lobbiesLeekduck lets you set weather and gym color so people can be more willing to join those lobbies for the cp bonus or +2 balls for catchingIn general I found hosting to be more reliable in leekduck but it's been a long time since I used it, because I started spoofing when niantrannies nerfed and doubled the price of remote passes
Do you guys also play the normal games and transfer to Home what you catch in GO, or do you primarily stick to just playing GO?
>>59019930buy an ad
>>59019947I don't have any of the Switch games so I just transfer to HOME and trade them out. Room traded a shiny Giratina earlier this week.
>>59019701you don't get psystrike by default either even after how long the mon has become behind the meta
>>59019947I'm not gonna have any reasons to transfer anything I have to HOME until Game Freak either makes a good game I can transfer my Pokémon to or they shut down GO. It genuinely fascinates me that some people only play GO just to transfer shinies from it to HOME so they can play with them in mainline games. I haven't had a reason to play any of those games since they announced they were cutting off Pokétransporter support.
>>59019947I would if they ever released a mainline game on a platform I owned, but since they use pokemon as a selling point of their consoles, that's never going to happen.
>>59019947i am doing a shiny dex on go and my 3ds. i send the shinies i dont have and some 4* and xxl/s mons to home
Would anyone be down to add me and send spoofed postcards for a few days so I can finally get an Icy Snow Vivillon? I never get these. Only one I still need to finish this shit.7896 8799 1266
>>59019457Buddy this is 100% on Niantic’s end, like when you couldn’t put Hoopa big form in
>>59019947Go, for me, exists for me to get stuff to use in real games or help complete my dexes. Also got 5 new teensy/jumbo marks last night checking XS/XL shinies in scarlet :)
>>59020141Transporter is still up, I used it last week
>>59019947I transfer shitty IV legendaries there and use them as GTS bait. I’ve been able to get some of the SV legendaries this way as I did not play that garbage.
>>59020244Do it yourself negro
>>59020308>when he trades the zero attack zero speed lunala because he thinks its the worst one
>>59020317I don't get it
>>59020448You can raise any stat to max since gen 7, but not lower. Having the slowest Lunala with zero attack (for reduced foul play/confusion damage) is optimal for trick room and would be very hard to get yourself
>>59020244Go on leekduck
>>59018827Yes, drove around using pokego plus, not driving around actively playing the game…
>>59020244Snow was not hard. I'm missing Sun. It's only in some regions of Mexico and Australia apparently.
>2x XP from catches activated from eventDoes this stack with lucky eggs?
>>59019947Always been a main series person, just happen to always have my phone on me so GO takes up my time. Largely keep them separate, but GO supplements my main games with pokedex completion, breeding and obviously the occasional cool shiny. HOME is contributed to from all sides.I was one of those people who played LGPE in conjunction with GO. Other than for the Meltan line it wasn't really worth it to do both together, but pokemon transfered from GO into LGPE and caught there have their unique version of the GO origin stamp
>>59020819Yes, though lucky eggs are best saved for the 100,000xp you get from hitting best friends
What’s the point of max battles these days? If they only last a day why would I ever bother doing random ones?
>>59021070To give you a quest that requires you to collect Max energy when they've force fed you thousands of it prior. A cruel cycle.
>>59021070Sticking legendaries in them instead of using rare candy / farming a specific mon that's in them
>>59020317its exceptionally uncommon to get a 0 attack legendary in go to transfer to home though
>>59021117With the daily reset there isn’t any time to actually accumulate candies though. U have 400 candies for my kubfu I’ll never evolve but I want more candies for my raikou
>>59021225Depending on where the spot is, I can pretty reliably get all 5 candies within an hour or two, so the daily reset is actually beneficial.
>>59021228I’m not in popular enough areas I guess. I got in the habit of just pulling my mons out when they hit the 5 candy limit and trying somewhere else.
I always find it funny when this happens with megas
TIL using an octothorpe in the storage search bar shows all Pokémon with any kind of tag.
I find it strange that the Kanto event pass ends at 100 rather than 151.
>>59020244I don't know from where, but one guy on my friend list keeps sending snowy cards from Finland.Love the guy. Perkele!
>>59021296AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHA!!
I just transfered a shiny weedle I JUST FUCKING GOT WITHOUT THINKING I AM A FUCKING DROOLING RETARD I ACTUALLY WANTED A SHINY WEEDLE
>>59021752oh noanyway, just boot up zah and shiny hunt one
>>59021764It's not the same anon. I found him in my backyard and everything :(I just BARELY managed to get a shiny gimmighoul before the opportunity ended recently so I guess this was my penance
>>59021752I have also muscle memory hit transfer on a shiny before.It gives you a second warning. Why the fuck did you not read it
>>59021787Because I lied about being a passenger and was focused on the road :(
>10 year anniversary event>Can’t be bothered to region unlock anything
>>59021677It’s not maxed out
At least he doesn't have a stupid hat this time
spoofbros its time for our legendary shundos
>>59021070It's a good way to get XL candies of the dynamax Mons in rotation.
>>59022094>Pikachu without a hat became more rare than Pikachu with a hat
Yeahp, I’m thinking I’m going to destroy my neighborhood driving through everything to get to my wild/incense spawn legendaries
>>59020848blogfaqs (proceeds to blogfaqs)>>59021070raidlike with rarecandylike but enshittified>>59021228thats the thing. they killed (hid until monday) all the max spots in ulu areas and left only the central gathering ones open. what's the end result? the central gathering ones have 40 attackers already stacked on the spot, and so, nobody visits those spots even more because they are always full. how do you fuck up this badly on the anniversary of pokemon and make the game WORSE when the game has more players? what do you think would happen? people would start recommending the game LESS because its showing it no longer has the infrastructure to support it.this is how you get people multiplying alts and location spoofing by a factor of 5 to self farm spots and then those start fucking with raids. did they even think about what would happen, or did they leave it to ai which can only hallucinate and infer only if there is a past example? for a series that fucking PREACHED to us about the saving environment and black/white ideals they sure are gobbling on that AI.>>59021599because half of the mon are in the paid pass so it should end at 75 which it kinda does
>>59022723I just bought an electric scooter to take to a local monument tomorrow to maybe host raids and grind incense spawns but I now have a small window in the morning before an afternoon full of thunderstorms
>>59022723>>59022980Pretty much have to tomorrow since we're due for all day rain and thunderstorms, but it's a sacrifice my neighborhood is willing to make.
>no shiny mewtwo:/
so what do i turn on for my alerts?
>>59021070I've said it multiple times. Max battles desperately need a rework. Everything about them is half baked.Outside of the battle they should function more like raids, with a rotation that gives stuff like evolved starters (with legacy moves?) or other evolved pokémon, making max battles the premier way of getting non-legendary pokémon. Having the spots refresh like once every 3 hours, with an hour downtime that shows off any mons you left at the spot in the overworld.In battles there should be a reason to use slower fast moves and charged attacks. Maybe dealing damage fills up like a second bar that does something else, like making the next max attack you do deal more damage, or maybe if you reach a damage threshold entering the max phase grants you a 4th action.Would have been cool if max was a part of the game with some actual depth and decision making.
>>59023433>In battles there should be a reason to use slower fast moves and charged attacks. Maybe dealing damage fills up like a second bar that does something else, like making the next max attack you do deal more damage, or maybe if you reach a damage threshold entering the max phase grants you a 4th action.iirc slower/more powerful fast moves and charged moves are fine in non-5 star. you do gain energy based on damage, but in high level battles, the damage reduction is so great just attacking is more important than any damage you could deal. i might be wrong, but I think that's how it works based on what I've read months and months ago.
What's the best place to find pogo coords? I'm in some discord group but it's mid. I want a Salazzle.
Saved all my pass catches for today:>one shiny (Tangela)>no 4*s>the Mewtwo was a 2* (I already had a mediocre 3*)At least I finally got my Tauros and finished the Kanto pokedex.Still kind of disappointed
>>59023642Was there a shiny increase today or something? Why else save?
>>59023647I was saving them for the uncapped weekend points, to make getting the higher ranks a bit easier. But then they added the extra 35 ranks worth of bonus tasks a day or two ago so it didn't really matter at all, I would be rank ~50 today but instead I'm 85.Figured I'd keep saving them anyway, do one grand opening
>encountered ~8 legendaries from 2 incenses>3 were ones I'd never seen/caught>caught 0What a cruel tease these are. And I'm guessing their average IVs are going to be shit compared to raid captured ones; are these just bait to get people to buy incenses?
>wild SalanditIs that normal?
>>59023767Yes they have mediocre ivs.>>59023811Basically anything that can be wild is wild this event. So barring shit like region locks, Kecleon, Smeargle, certain legendaries etc. you can find them in the wild today and tomorrow.
When does the incense thing end today? Or does it run through the night?
>Encounter my wife Latias>She ran awayBaby broke my heart, but I know she'll be back.
claimed the entire kanto pass at once>no shinies>no perfects>no nothingwhat a disappointment
are kecleon stops increased in chance to spawn since the keks arent in the wild
>>59023659Thats fun
This incense event is bad.
>>59023846Through Monday, slated to end at the same time the 30th Anniversary stuff does.
>>59022598Have you gotten xl candies from max spots? I’ve never had a mon return with xl candies
>>59024260>Have you gotten xl candies from max spots?That's currently impossible. It seems either Niantic forgot or didn't care enough to implement candy XL obtention from returning mons in max spots. What I meant was that you get around 3 XL candy just from beating a max raid, so it's an ok way to grind for candies for Mons in rotation such as Chansey.
>>59024140God damn it, I just remembered that I passed like a billion pokestops for Kalos tour and didn't find a single goddamn Kek. At least I got one a few days beforehand, but I'm still only at 5/10 now and was really hoping for all that walking to bring it up a good amount.
>>59022841I just mean it seems so weird that they went through all the trouble to give out more than enough ways to get points with those random tasks that I’m surprised they didn’t just give more stardust by having the event end at 151. I got mewtwo first thing this morning and I would’ve been done with the whole thing if I wasn’t working right now

Neat.
Are any of these current "ultra beasts" worthwhile? I got a decent IV Blacephalon, but from what I gather its massive DPS is offset by it being extremely fragile. So I have a feeling its damage might be more theoretical that anything, it might die before it does much.How about Kartana, is that worth investing heavily into? Or should I just wait for something else in the future to use my candies & raid passes on?Assume everything else I have is C-tier or worse (because it is)
>>59024430Kartana is basically the best grass attacker if you exclude megas. So very worth getting.Blacephelon is the best non mega fire attacker.Xurkitree is one of the best electric attackers.Nihilego is the best non-mega poison. But poison is a shit type.Necrozmar is worth getting for fusion materials.
>>59024466Cool, I'll see if I can nab a decent Kartana then, thanks anon.>NecrozmarThis fusion stuff kind of confuses me, but I understand that it takes like a dozen raids to get enough materials for any of those ones.So it may be a bit beyond my means
>>59024487necrozma fusion energy comes from fusion raids so you can't even get it right now you could try to roll for the hundo and candy though
>>59024466>Necrozmar is worth getting for fusion materials.>>59024531>necrozma fusion energy comes from fusion raids so you can't even get it right nowAieee
>>59024466>Nihilego is the best non-mega poisonThere's a good mega poison? I assume Gengar.
>>59024576gengar doesn't even get a poison quick movebeedrill is slightly better than nihilego
>>59024599Fair enough. I love that one of the original com mon bugs is better than the alternate universe jellyfish parasite.
Neat
>second ever shiny legendary>it's thisOh... I only wanted a regular one for the dex...
>>59024544Forgive me anon. When I said fusion materials I just meant the Necrozmar itself and the candies. Maybe you get like a hundo or shundo necrozmar you would use for the fusions.
Today's wild catches. If only I could catch any of the multiple galar birds i encountered..
>>59024903My luck with them was abysmal despite seeing quite a few of them. Not a single shiny popped up for the Legendary ones though, so that was a bummer and the thunderstorms pretty much killed all of the planned in-person bits in my area. At least I got a shiny Oddish.
248276112765Please invite me to xurktree raids today
>>59025230no
Come on, man.
>>59025281Butt y?
>all these raids>they didnt even turn on the 1 raid per hour ever hour on every gymWHY
missed on every incese shiny>lunala>dialga (twice)>regidraco>galarian zapdos>latios>Xerneas>groudon>registeelman it's hopeless unless you have a masterball or god tier luck
>>59025734it was intended for that to happen, anon. all the legends were given galarian bird flee rates
>>59025734you found all those shiny???
>>59011763I just made it into sylveon because it has some use in master league and pve. Wouldn’t even bother with it but I needed to max some mons out for level up tasks and had the candy handy
>>59025866>Those tags
>>59014740Last season I got to rank 20 and then I only played master league when it was 4x dust and didn’t fuck with any other leagues so I basically had every other week off from it and I still made 2.3mil dust with the battle days even though it was right at the beginning. If I part time it again this season which I probably will, I doubt I’ll hit that much because the way they changed the battle days. Idk. I went camping Thursday and Friday so I don’t play any so I just hit rank 11 today. Now I gotta start trying (sometimes)
>>59014983Because now on Thursday there’s always 10 sets and 4x dust (excluding set end rewards) so that template doesn’t apply. Me personally when there’s 4x dust I do a combination of 5/5 and 1/5 to keep my rating between 1250 and 1400 or so which seems to work good for dust farming
>>59016191>rare candies is better than dustHow? Don’t you need both to do anything? Without the dust you can’t do shit with those rare candies anyways
>>59025980you get more than enough dust from doing everything else in the game, pvp and raids are the main source of candy
Bros are any of the ultra beasts worth buying a remote pass for and if so which ones?
>>59025937That's all the reason to follow it and get to rank 20 asap. Rank 20 gives a substantially higher amount of dust than the lower ranks, so getting to it is a must now
>>59025763Is this real?
>>59025763I never saw one and multiple incense didn't spawn ANY incense mons at all
Why can’t I upload any stops? The thing is glitching out
>>59026016blacephelon and kartana, maybe
>>59026038try the web submission i have been submitting things for the last week
>>59025988If I spent all the dust I have, I’d be left with a shitload of candies but I have been tanking for years so maybe I’m just established by now idk
>>59026034Everything spawned based on what biome you were in.
>>59026051what about Xurkitree? I don't think I have any decent electric attackers right now
>>59026137Are you trying to tell me I wasn't in any biome?
>>59026142Yes, voidanon
>>59026131No, you're right. Dust trumps most other types of currencies in the game. Candies are quite easy to come by by tanking or doing raids.
>>59026138It's not the worst, but you're better off with Kartana
>>59026153I was thinking xurlitree because I already have shaymin for grass and blaziken for fire but I don't have a good electric (or really a good ghost besides gengar)
Is there any reason to get hearts with your buddy pokemon after your best buddies?
>>59026131youre supposed to be dumping your excess rares into mythicals
>>59026138>>59026168He's also an option, but electric isn't amazing to invest in and you should probably have a mega manectric or shadow raikou or magnezone or electivire or a thunder cage regieleki alreadyIf you actually have zero of those, xurk isn't a bad choice
>>59026190>you should probably have a mega manectric or shadow raikou or magnezone or electivire or a thunder cage regieleki alreadyI've been playing for 2 months the only one of those I've seen is the pre evolved forms of magnezone lol
>>59026174None
>>59026196Rip, we had a shadow Raikou raid day not too long ago. HOWEVER, Xurkitree isn't a bad electric type attacker at all, anon. I'd go for it.
>>59026205Word, thanks
How many raids do I need to do to get a Mewtwo tomorrow?
>>59026217I just got mine and only did 2 raids tonight
>>59026217Depends on how many points you got
>>59026174you can still halve the distance for candy/mega energy with friendship points, but nothing prculiar about getting hearts
This is the best possible event to get rid of surplus incense I keep getting from showcases
This was the most interesting thing I've caught all day.
>Send cool natural or historical postcard with gift that takes a bit more effort to reach >Most just take their free stuff>Send sponsored boost mobile gift >Every person I've sent it to has saved it as soon as they see it Where you at dawg
I guess, man
>>59026405Everyone saving them for the diancie research rn
How hard it is to reach legend in PvP? I kinda want to get the cosmetics, I'm not sure if it's hard or I can just get it playing consistently
>>59025917>I doubt I’ll hit that much because the way they changed the battle days.It might actually be the opposite. 50 sets with double dust every week sounds pretty good
>>59026463First step would be to reach rank 20 like the guide here >>59014740. This will take you around 6-9 days. The rest depends on what PvP Mons you have and what """skills""" you got for the taptaptap.
After a year of playing completely alone, apparently I need to send gifts to "friends" in order to complete some research quests.Who wants to get spammed with gifts?
anyone with pgsharp premium know how many 4* galar dogs/kyurem have spawned so far? been watching the free feed for a while without seeing any and i have 3 master balls i cannot conceive of using on anything else
>>59026463It's extremely sweaty and extremely frustrating. Not worth it imo, I just tank for easy stardust.
>>59026650There are anon codes in the OP
>>59026729neat, did not know that
Are the legendaries 1/20 like raids or normal encounter odds?
>saw about two dozen wild legendaries, managed to catch 4, none were shinyNot too bad I guess. Does anyone know if they have the 1/20 shiny rate or is it the same as normal spawns? And are the shinies guaranteed not to flee like when you find a shiny birb with the daily incense?>>59026138Regileki will be in raids later this month but I don't think it will know thunder cage>>59026174It still counts towards those "earn x hearts with your buddy" research tasks but not much else afaik
TOADINATION's friend code has one too many digitsand did SpeedBoatDope ever get his/her Drowzee?
Getting too many what I call "Hanke's Vision" rolls lately, ie green-ringed shitmons breaking out of 5+ balls and running away
>>59026405uhh bro just so you know they dont actually save it,...they just pin and unpin for the bug......

... I could've been using incenses for legendary encounters for this whole event?
>>59027177they have roughly the same flee rate as galar birds, so you get nothing but a seen dex anyway
>>59027246Not him, but funnily enough the one legendary I got from popping regular incense was a galarian moltres. And weirdly enough it did have the flee rate of galarian moltres.
>>59027177encounter rate is bad and catch rate even worst this is genuinely a waste of time unless you ready to throw MB
>>59027246>they have roughly the same flee rate as galar birds, so you get nothing but a seen dex anywaysaw Kyogre, Zacian, Rayquaza, Yveltal, Thunduruscaught Zacianalmost caught ThundurusI was fine with just having had a chance at the restand I'm used to hunting the Galarian birds, so this isn't new to me>>59027277>this is genuinely a waste of time unless you ready to throw MBI've still never even seen a master ball research quest

>>59027116Well it doesn’t have high IVs but it’s a girl
>>59027506so take her virginity
>>59026405There's an old rusty pipe nearby, which was built to help funnel all the shit fumes to an acceptable height above the surface during the Victorian era. There's probably a few hundred of them left in the country, Victorian stink pipes.It's a Pokéstop, and the picture used for it is on a wet, grey, overcast day, and there's an overflowing bin for dog faeces also captured. It is the most unpleasant stop I have ever seen, but it's also on 90% of the gifts I ever send.I have seen no end of people save this cursed thing
>>59026217I got my mewtwo without doing a single raidyou DID catch 15 pokemon every day, and did the overall 151 catches tasks, didn't you?
Hello, I have two (2) questions, I would appreciate any help:I think I'm missing 3 of the 'ultra beasts' now (Buzzwole, Xurkitree, Necrozma), and I'd only want them for the dex really (can't fuse Necrozma, the others seem meh).Am I likely to be waiting another 2 years for my next chance at filling their dex entries? From what I'm seeing they last appeared in 2024?And I see that Zacian is coming to raids a few days. I don't understand fusions much, but am I right in understanding that this version ("Hero of Many Battles") does NOT give the energy needed for the Crowned upgrade?
>>59027752>and I'd only want them for the dex reallyXurkitree is a good electric type, though electrics are pretty underwhelming so that's not saying much.>Am I likely to be waiting another 2 years for my next chance at filling their dex entries?It's entirely possible. Necrozma is more likely to show up because of the forms, but it's possible that they just won't run him again for a while after the number of times he's been available in the last six months.>does NOT give the energy needed for the Crowned upgrade?Only the fused forms give fusion energy, just like only mega raids give mega energy.
>>59027767I see, thanks for the clarification anon.I'll probably save up my coins/passes anyway, even if it is a wait, I've got so many other missing pokedex entries I probably shouldn't be worrying much about a few random legendaries right now. There's bigger and better out there I'm sure.
>>59027578unsub>>59027752I don't see this game lasting. the game got bought by saudis and they write things off pretty quickly. a mere two years and liv golf changed hands back to pga. in two years this game could be ended or changed hands again.
It's good
I don't understand all the people bitching about the all out spawns. were they really expecting it to be a weekend of nearly mid/top tier community day candidates and never a single shitmon to be seen?
>>59028128i think they expected more than just KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and ten egg/raid only spawns, yeah
>one day away from a remote trade with someone>they're holding the last gift hostagefucking piece of shit
Fucking hell
>>59027778>I've got so many other missing pokedex entries I probably shouldn't be worrying much about a few random legendaries right now. There's bigger and better out there I'm sure.Pretty much, anon. It's worthwhile to worry about Dex entries when you're missing very few and there's a research that requires you to complete your Dex. Outside of that it's best to take it slow and steady.
>>59028209Just create another one, anon. It will get insta-accepted
>>59027832>the game got bought by saudisApparently that was a year ago, and things don't seem that different from when I last played.Monthly passes are new to me, but they seem kind of shit anyway. Otherwise the shop and other mechanics seem about the same as they were?
>>59028238events are getting more monetized, which is the number one concern everyone had that knew of the name scopely prior.
>>59028238>Otherwise the shop and other mechanics seem about the same as they were?That is correct. The game is more or less the same it's ever been. Only """significant""" change brought about when Scopely bought the game was the increase of remote raids that could be done per day.>Monthly passes are new to me, but they seem kind of shit anywayFunnily enough these were introduced by Niantic about a month before PoGo got bought.
>>59028221>there's a research that requires you to complete your DexWow that sounds disgusting to obtain, I just looked at mine and I'm 259 away. I guess there has been new regions, but still, that's a lot
>>59028277"complete the dex" means complete a region/generation dex, not the entire 1024 w/e dex. some "end-tier" special research demands you complete the platinum medal for a region's dex, which is to catch every mon in that region.
>>59028287Oh I see, that's a lot more reasonable.
>~10 leggo encounters today>0 shinies>1 catch>it was one I didn't have (Lunala (2*))I guess that's an okay result
I could swear there was a way to see how many extra candies you earned by having a primal reverted mon out, but I can't see it anywhere or find any info googling.Am I crazy?
>>59028364Never mind I found it, hidden in plain site.
>>59028128>an event that conditions the players on ticket use through incense usepretty disgusting dark pattern>you have to be at driving speed to even spot legendariesvery disgusting when this game should be about being on foot>and then they have shit stat flooreven if you could mirror trade them for, this fucks up raids as everyone brings these shitmons into battle>and then the raid spawn distribution still sucksgross>and they apparently nerfed the number premier balls handed out based on speed for raidsso you can fuck right off with praising them for the event as that signals them to keep enshittifying the game
I'm having issues with my Pokédex, and I don't know if I'm just being really fucking stupid or if there's actually something wrong here.For some reason a lot of evolves just aren't registering properly in the dex. Am I missing something? Is this a known bug, because I can't see anything about it
