    Pokémon GO - New Event Pikachu? (I'm Very Bored..)

    Pokémon GO - New Event Pikachu? (I'm Very Bored..)


    New Event Pikachu? (I'm Very Bored..)

    Would this not be the best time to release a shiny Snorlax?

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 06:23 PM PDT

    Everyone's at home. Sitting. Playing the game inside because of the different levels of self-isolation/quarantine.

    It would be great to have a chance to win a shiny Snorlax from a Go Battle League reward or something similar that everyone has access to.

    It's also my all time fav Pokémon. So I want an army of shiny Snorlax!

    Just a thought. Cheers!

    Be like Wailord - Practice social distancing

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 03:48 AM PDT

    During my last session of Pokémon Go I dropped my big boy Wailord into an almost crowded gym. I noticed he was the only Pokémon taking some precaution in such a social situation.
    Everyone scrunched up together in one corner but not Wailord. He knows the drill. Be like Wailord. Practice social distancing.

    Made Niantic a new logo to use for the next few months. Think they’ll use it?

    With everyone going into isolation, wouldn't it be great to be able to raid remotely for the next month or so?

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 06:23 AM PDT

    As the title says, it would be nice to be able to raid as much as I used to before the pandemic. Sure, I can still knock out a few solo raids here and there while staying inside my car, but the raiding community is basically non-existent in my area at the moment (and understandably so). What are your thoughts about being able to raid remotely in the meantime?

    Opponent using 3 shields?

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 06:46 AM PDT

    I just lost a round of GBL because my opponent used 3 shields. Just as I'm about to use my finishing move, another shield prevents me from executing it, and I lost. Is this a glitch or is the person hacking?

    I am so fucking done with go battle

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 08:53 AM PDT

    Read the title. I have lost about 15 games today because of lag. I just had a battle where i started off with altaria(as always) and it came out dead. DEAD. It just died the second it came in there. I have good service, good wifi, and the lag always seems to benefit the other player. Come ON niantic. Lag needs to be fixed. I get a little lag, but not so much that in makes my rating go down 600 points. I'm also someone who LOVES pvp and go battle, but not when there is this much lag. Rant over.

    Interesting title: GBL is an absolute delight

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 07:53 AM PDT

    Imagine going into your 5th game. You're 3/4 so far. You win the coin flip and have the right counters. You make the right switches every time. But the problem is, everything you do is delayed. Your charged attacks don't go off until 2 seconds after you furiously press on them. When you make the switch, EVERY TIME the opponent player just gets to attack you multiple times and activate their charged attack before your Pokémon could even start moving. You won the coin flip. You made all the right decisions. You lost. Why? Because fuck you that's why. On the bright side, I did manage to save golden razz berries and ultra balls on a non shiny, shitty IV Cobalion.

    Regional switch up( with increased spawns)

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 06:47 AM PDT

    I think this would give people some new Pokémon to catch while most of us are quarantined and could get switched up even more depending on how long the issue last.

    Go battle league buggy as ever

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 08:53 AM PDT

    Has anyone noticed today the GBL has been extremely buggy? So far I've had a battle where the 3..2..1.. countdown started while I'm stuck in the pokemon selection lobby before the fight and the only way to enter it was by closing the app and restarting. I've had two fights where at the very end while im trying to get a charge off the battle just stops for 5-10 seconds and I don't get the charge move off. And my last battle I had a charge move go off say super effective and do zero damage while my opponent still had both shields and didn't use one eliminating it being just a graphical glitch.

    GO Battle League reward Pokemon encounters should not be resource intensive!

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 10:06 AM PDT

    For the past few weeks, we've had opportunities to get Legendary pokemon as our GBL rewards (which is great!), but it can feel more like a punishment when it takes 8 Ultra balls and top quality berries to even capture the thing! That's with GREAT and EXCELLENT throws, mind you.

    We cannot skip accepting the pokemon (I tried), so it requires us to sink resources into catching the thing.

    With the social distancing and isolation going on, it's hard to keep up on Great and Ultra balls, which are my go-to for Legendary catches.

    I get Niantic wants us to earn the Legendary, but frankly, I already earned it by winning in GBL. I don't need to feel accomplishment by throwing yet another ball at yet another pokemon.

    I would love if it were a 1 ball guaranteed catch, similar to shiny legendaries. That way we still get to earn the catch and stay in the Pokemon world theme, but we also don't just waste ball after precious ball on these already-earned "rewards."

    TL;DR - Sinking resources into something I've already earned, and cannot skip capturing, feels more like a punishment than a reward from GO Battle League play.

    Me and this random person have become lucky friends. Since then, he has been slyly communicating with me by renaming his pokemon... I think he wants to meet.

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 10:03 AM PDT

    This person has always sent me gifts like clockwork, and I've seen his avatar at local gyms. So, I asked my local raid group if they know who Norman Grossfeld is - but no one has heard of him.

    I tried looking him up on FB, but couldn't find anyone by that name around here.

    Which was kinda weird. And then, whataya know, we become lucky friends.

    As soon we become the luckiest of friends - I notice that he started communicating with me by renaming his buddy pokemon certain things...

    Kinda weird right?

    So, should I meet him?

    If you don't get too serious about it, GBL is a lot of fun

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 02:20 PM PDT

    I'm never going to be rank 10. I accept that. So I just have fun and I notice that I'll really only run into 1 or 2 really competitive players in any given 5 game match. Usually, when I lose, it's because I got out-played rather than out-collected.

    Yesterday, I ran an "all shiny" team: Shiny Alteria, Shiny Vaporeon, Shiny Shelgon. In my head I was calling them "Head in the Clouds, Purple Rain and Young Shelgon".

    I don't mind if I lose to the really good players. I'll get there, or not, but who cares.

    BTW: to the girl who was running Regirock, Regice and Registeel, kudos on the collection!

    Gyms being left empty/neutral in my area.

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 05:16 AM PDT

    Walking on my way to work this morning ( I work I'm a supermarket so I am classed as a "key worker") i took down two gyms and put mons in. However when I checked my game on my break I realized that both had been kicked out of said gyms, with only one coin earned between them both. To make it worse the gyms were then left empty/neutral. So I scanned the area of all other gyms near by and yes, they were all empty/neutral too. So I was just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this or if someone in my area is either spoofing or just plain old trolling everyone??

    Question about evolving Swablu

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 04:57 AM PDT

    So I finally have enough candies to evolve my little Swablu into Altaria. My concern is that I will evolve my Swablu and the resulting Altaria will be over 1500 and thus not be allowed in Great League.

    What CP is a safe CP to evolve Swablu into an Altaria that will be under 1500?

    stay-at-home event idea

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 02:39 AM PDT

    Just what the title says, it's sad that people have to stay inside and not be able to go outside and catch new pokemon. especially when you live far away from pokestops, gyms and other

    coronavirus will kill this game if it keeps getting bigger and people will have to stay inside

    I hope niantic does something about it and will release some kind of stay-at-home event

    do y'all agree?

    Caught my first ( non event ) shiny in quarantine a few days ago

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 03:21 PM PDT

    I was in a call with my boyfriend while streaming videos and opened up the game. Had three growlithe outside of my house and caught 2/3 because being close to just shutting the game down but said fuck it and screamed when the growlithe came up yellow. Scared my poor boyfriend because I couldn't put into words what happened until I actually caught it - would have cried had the shiny ran or I ran out of balls

    Perfectionist at GBL

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 09:08 AM PDT

    Ever have that team that does work but then you lose a couple games in a row and you are like damn I need to rebuild my team? Being a perfectionist sucks. I have steadily moved from 1600 or so to start in Rank 7 to now in Rank 9. Lost maybe 4-6 games in a row and decided I needed a better team. So of course I spent hours during this quarantine trying to figure out what is better. Spent probably 700k dust or so building it out and then only to have fallen back to my original setup which continues to dominate!

    Anybody else?

    Research tasks suggestions

    Posted: 26 Mar 2020 02:19 AM PDT

    Niantic have done a great job lately at supporting players that can't get out of the house. I do however think that now would be a great time to release a few research tasks just to keep us on the game a bit more. Nothing difficult, could just be catch x Pokemon, compete against other trainers and rewards could be a possible shiny encounter.

    Any thoughts? I feel like I'd be mouth more engaged with the game if they dropped a few of these but since I can't hit any poke stops or gyms, and I'm assuming many others can't too this would help out a lot.
