Useful Links
I'm sick of the memes here, I want the discussion posts! try http://nr.reddit.com/r/pokemongo for desktop users or this for mobile/app users. Niantic support : https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us /r/PokemonGO FAQ: /r/PokemonGo/wiki/FAQ There's this Pokéstop/Gym near me which seems inappropriate. Can I report it? Use this link. However, Niantic seems to be preoccupied with other things now, so don't expect too much. We have Niantic representatives on both here and /r/TheSilphRoad - please do not ping them for bugs which are in the known issues page unless you have found a niche yet gamebreaking issue/exploit. Where can I find other players in my area? Try our regional subreddits list! Also, see the related subreddits or TSR's community map! If you have any suggestions for FAQs to append to this thread or for meta questions, message the moderators or mention /u/PokemonGoMods! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 06:08 AM PST By using the AR+ glitch, and a few small edits in Snapseed, I was able to create this photo. I hope you enjoy! https://imgur.com/gallery/HV9KjRe For anyone wondering, here is the AR+ Glitch [link] [comments] |
| In AR, no one can hear you scream... Posted: 15 Feb 2020 11:33 AM PST https://i.imgur.com/t3nciCS.jpg I don't know why Niantic featured HER in the event... Don't they know that some of us have some dark, DARK memories of Miltank? [link] [comments] |
| Beating Giovanni should result in non-trash mon rewards. Posted: 16 Feb 2020 06:30 AM PST I get that the pride and thrill of defeating the boss should be it's own reward, blah blah. But my shadow Raikou was a zero-star turd. 🙄The special research rewards should at least be guaranteed to be a 10-10-10. [link] [comments] |
| I opened Pokemon Go and appeared in the Distortion World. Posted: 16 Feb 2020 12:26 AM PST I don't know if this is an ordinary bug or what, but it was still nice. [link] [comments] |
| Putting lovedisc in 7 km eggs was a really trashy move, Niantic Posted: 15 Feb 2020 08:32 PM PST Out of the 15 - 7 km eggs I've hatched, I've hatched 3 lovediscs. Seriously Niantic? As if I wasn't getting enough lovediscs already from LITERALLY EVERY 2 KM EGG AND LITERALLY EVERY STREET CORNER. When I walk 7 km (!!) to hatch an egg, I expect something that I can do SOMETHING with instead of just transferring or AT LEAST get useful candy for. Really not cool, and I am mildly upset about it.

| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 05:28 AM PST ''Legendary'' Birds https://imgur.com/gallery/ZbNdNqJ After poor luck with research breakthroughs, I realized I could have some fun and make my own legendary birds with a bit of help from a pidgey, a pidove and a photo editor! I'd love to see other peoples take on turning a common pokemon into a legendary! [link] [comments] |
| Niantic should ban those f...ing battle league cheaters Posted: 16 Feb 2020 12:29 AM PST You can't tell me someone is not cheating, when I am winning and they bust out their last pokémon, which in this instance was a giratina, and they land 1 quick move then use a charged dragonclaw, and repead this 4 times in a row!!! how could it be possible to activate 4 charged moves within 10 seconds of attacking time when one is not a cheater, I don't understand why niantic dosn't get rid of those pests, after all they should be able to see such actions in the serverlogs... smh...

| Kecleon changing color until it is released (Day 22) Posted: 16 Feb 2020 01:55 AM PST I am in love with this anime, too bad I already watched it all the way through. Yes, even the animated ones. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 06:45 AM PST Got off the train and saw this a few days ago. First thought was "the job training can wait". [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Feb 2020 07:13 PM PST Marathon Egg 42.2 km walking distance It's a legendary egg that hatches legendary pokemon that have been released. Or a way to release new, legendary Pokémon. Make it rare or for after you spin a 7 day streak. Then create a new incubator called a "ultra incubator" that costs 500 coins but it cuts the distance in half and is only one use.

| Shiny trinity today: raid, hatch and wild catch! Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:15 PM PST https://i.imgur.com/pasWiI4.jpg Im normally not so lucky, got two shinies so far this year. But today there was some sort of jackpot... [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 05:02 AM PST I've definitely defeated more than 7 people through Battle League and checked off every other related research item from other quests, but this one hasn't budged. What gives? [link] [comments] |
| Why do you keep playing pokemon go? Posted: 15 Feb 2020 10:13 PM PST I've played pokemon go off and on since it launched. I really want to enjoy the game and I don't fully understand why I don't really enjoy the game. I'm almost max level in the game but haven't even come close to completing my pokedex. I just want to hear some of the communities opionions on the game. What keeps you in the game, what holds the enjoyment for you. Do you enjoy the game as much as you used to? Is the game what you hoped for form the beginning? I'm hoping some of your answers can maybe show me how to enjoy the game too. I'm open to DMs if you feel like you want to discuss this with me further. I really want to enjoy this game. I hope you can help. Thanks. [link] [comments] |
| Improvements to the Buddy System (aka better incentives to work for Excited moods) Posted: 16 Feb 2020 03:29 AM PST So here's the main problems with the current system that's turning people off from getting their buddies excited:
It's simply not worth this much effort just to half the time needed to get enough candies to level up that legendary, evolve that Gible or Magikarp, or whatever you're planning to do. A CP boost of 1 level isn't worth the effort to speed things up even for "hardcore" min-maxers either. So here's what I propose as ways to make working for the excited mood without buying the berry more attractive:
It's kinda ridiculous, imo, that a stop I've not visited since moving house, or a stop I visited once during vacation abroad doesn't qualify the next time I'm there 2 years later. The concept is getting you out of your comfort zone, not straying further and further from home until you've explored every corner of the planet.
Basically, for each heart you earn, the mood points that come with that heart (3 points for walking, gifts, souvenirs etc. and 1 point for everything else) will not be subjected to decay. This means that after you've earned all possible unexcited hearts for that day, Good/Great/Ultra Buddies will have 16/19/25 points that's not subjected to decay, so you only need to worry about decay for the remaining 16/13/7 points. If you swap out your Buddy, however, these special points will be lost. If you swap it back in later in the same day, the points shouldn't come back, so all 32 points you need to get excited will be subjected to decay (unless you still have empty hearts to fill).
Why not? This isn't such a big bonus though imo, not compared to
Stardust >> Candies in the current game meta tbh
So you've a level 40 Pokemon. If it's a Best Buddy status, it'll only be equivalent to a level 41 when it's the active buddy. But if your Best Buddy is excited, it'll unleash the full level 45 potential. Now that's what got players excited originally when the data miners found out about this. Could be a bit OP though. Maybe +2 CP levels would be better... What do you think? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 03:34 AM PST Idea as in title. I've hundreds of potions I don't use fast enough, and my friend has dozens of TMs, hundreds of Rare Candies, and hundreds of berries he doesn't use fast enough. As it happens, we both have too much of what the other really needs. So why can't we trade items? Barter economy FTW! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Feb 2020 08:25 PM PST Am I the only one who thought about it? Haha That's the first thing that came to my mind when I opened the shop. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Feb 2020 08:55 PM PST Once i hatched this i realized ive never even had a chancy yet. Realizing they are so rare i was kind of disappointed i would have to get candy the hard way. Welp thanks to this event, in just 2 hours ive accumulated 101 chancy candies! Now i have to walk her for 15km and i will finally get a chansy and a blissy at the same time [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 01:55 AM PST Go battle league? What is the first thing you think of when you hear that? Bugs? Lag? Exploits? Fun? Game breaking experiences? I love go battle league but there's one big problem. The bugs. Even after the patch there is lots of them. In this case i want to talk about one particular bug. I just won a Go battle but in the animation part after it said i lost. I double checked but it didn't register the win. And no it wasn't a tie i had well over half of my health left. This has happened to me several times. Does anyone have the same problem as me? Solution? There has also been multiple times even after the patch that the opponent have been able to use a shield without losing it which results in them having three shields! Im very thankful for all help i can get [link] [comments] |
| The Battle League, obviously, needs to improve... Posted: 16 Feb 2020 06:49 AM PST ... and it should start doing so by changing the way we swap our Pokémons mid battle. In addition to that, Niantic needs to change how the Charged Attack move gets activated. I don't really know how to explain this but I hope you understand: I know there are multiple posts with suggestions for improvement and reported bugs, but these two major issues are the ones that have affected me the most in the negative way. TLDR; This is my first real post, so I'm not sure how it works with Flairs, but I'd rather discuss this than choosing "complaint" in regards to the flair. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 02:55 AM PST So I've been playing the ultra league this morning and I've had a couple of instances of my game just freezing, then coming back and I'm suddenly down 2 pokemon, but apparently they're unaffected by the lag? I assumed it was my wifi so I switched to 4G, this worked fine until my last battle and exactly the same thing happened, I held out but ended up closing the app and reopening it, it sent me straight back in to the battle where I get to watch my last pokemon die. I'm a casual player so this isnt going to ruin my day, annoying but really I just want to work out my team which I cant do if constantly freezes and/or lags. The question is, is this because of the battle system not working correctly or is it because of other players taking it too seriously? It just seems weird that no opposing players seem to suffer from the freezing when I play, and most games work absolutely fine but the odd ones just do this and suddenly I lose. Be good to know if anyone else suffers from this or is it just my phone or connection or something else? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 16 Feb 2020 06:12 AM PST I opened my buddy's (Lucario) gift and earned a bonus heart. Now it has another gift that I want to save for tomorrow's bonus heart. If I switch to another buddy (Rayquaza) so I can earn hearts for Rayquaza, do I lose Lucario's gift? [link] [comments] |
| Go Battle League ranking system? Posted: 16 Feb 2020 05:57 AM PST Currently I have done around 200 go battle league battles and have won around 150 Right now I'm on on a 27 game win streak and after each group of 5 games I only rank up like 20 max ( after being placed in rank 7 ). How does the ranking system work and how do I get more rank besides just grinding out win for the rest of my life just to hit rank 8? [link] [comments] |
| Completely new to pokemon go. What should i focus on? Posted: 16 Feb 2020 03:40 AM PST Hey! I just started pokemon go and i chose charizard. The game is kinda complicated to me. All i have to do is walk and find pokemons? Is every pokemon available in every country? And most importantly, is it really free to play [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:13 PM PST Hatched this lovely lad from a 10k egg today, came with enough candy to evolve too :) [link] [comments] |
