| Posted: 12 Mar 2020 10:42 PM PDT They can clearly track when people are moving or not, seeing how that's the whole point of the game and how they can track your distance for eggs. So why not an event that incentivizes staying put and quarantining yourself? They would obviously have to account for drift, but that's doable for sure. Just make it so as long as you don't move more than a certain amount you effectively count as stationary for the event. Increase the spawns for lazy or slow pokemon like Slakoth, Slowpoke, Snorlax, maybe have a napping hat pikachu since they seem to like that so much. Put Regigigas in Go Battle League rewards (Slow start), make certain pokemon spawns related to standing still (maybe every few minutes a Slakoth spawns). They could make a Special Research line with tasks like claiming rank rewards in GBL, catching/taking snapshots of Snorlax, Slakoth, etc, and then they could have something neat at the end like a shiny Munchlax encounter or a PvP perfect Vigoroth.

| So, as a rural player who can't do 5* raids, I just got a small heartattack Posted: 13 Mar 2020 02:18 AM PDT I think it's nice that you can get legendarys from GO league, was trying to get a legendary because I heard that you can get a Giratina this Weekend, certainly not what I expected [link] [comments] | ||
| I just received a Dratini that harnasses the pinacle of CP and HP values. Posted: 13 Mar 2020 06:47 AM PDT This beauty is all that us trainers want. This is all that we strive for during the time that we play this game. It consists of the values that we consider worthy and important. [link] [comments] | ||
| One Hundred 100% Pokemon! It feels amazing to hit this milestone after playing since launch week. Posted: 12 Mar 2020 10:07 AM PDT https://imgur.com/gallery/5G97UfG I've never posted an image here before, but wanted to share an achievement that I'm quite happy about with this great community. The glorious, inspiring, mighty Magikarp marks the milestone for me. Some relevant info; I play every day for about 2 hours, mostly while walking my dog or commuting. Some of my family members also play, giving me trade partners under the same roof. We live in Toronto, a majorly active area for PoGo with vibrant communities of players. Here's a breakdown of the hundos I've collected: - 11 hatches - 12 trades, 6 of which were lucky trades - 7 Purified Pokemon - 1 Shadow Pokemon (Porygon) - 69 hundos caught in the wild or from raids, including 1 Mythical (Darkrai), 1 Legendary (Mewtwo), and an Unown caught at Montreal Safari Zone! EDIT: Thanks for all the appreciation! I'm glad that so many people are digging my naming scheme too. Thought I'd share some of the more creative nicknames not pictured here. I'm pretty fond of a my Machamp named "J100estar" after the JJBA anime, a Gengar named "M100rty" after the Ghost gym leader, a Blissey called "Nurse J100y", a Farfetch'd called "D100nald" (as in the Disney duck), and a Probopass "Hundnose."

| 30 Incense for 1 Pokécoin is awesome Posted: 12 Mar 2020 06:14 PM PDT I've been playing since almost day 1 and I think this is literally the nicest thing Niantic have done for us thus far. While there's plenty of things in the game I'd like to be improved or reworked, I really appreciate this gift and I have to give credit where it's due. So - thanks Niantic! [link] [comments] | ||
| Now, THIS is how incenses should work Posted: 13 Mar 2020 05:17 AM PDT I like this initiative of reworking the incenses to encourage people to stay home as long as possible. It's a good idea, and Niantic doesn't come up with these ideas very often, so I think we should give them a big thumbs up. But, isn't this the way incenses should've always worked? The only way to make them work was to go on a vehicle while using them, because otherwise it was 80 coins for six sentrets... Not a great deal. Should we shout out to make them work this way permanently? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 13 Mar 2020 06:39 AM PDT I am not complaining don't get me wrong just teasing how many spawns we are getting with these new incense spawns. It's crazy I might actually run out of pokeballs if I use anymore incense. I am loving the incense duration and spawns but I am going to run out of balls pretty quick. Perhaps we could buy pokeballs in the shop for 1 coin as well? [link] [comments] | ||
| Increase gym range as far as visibility goes Posted: 13 Mar 2020 07:18 AM PDT Just an idea so people can keep their distance: Set the gym range to the visible range in game, so you can raid in every gym that you see on the map. It should be easy to do and in the end could even earn them more money, because people will be raiding from home like crazy. [link] [comments] | ||
| Now the next thing is 1 coin for 1000 pokeballs Posted: 13 Mar 2020 12:42 AM PDT So we have incense. Now we need a lot pokeballs. Maybe 1000 its a lot. At least 500 for sure. What do you think? Do you need pokeballs? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 13 Mar 2020 08:13 AM PDT Whilst everyone is inside and unable to go out and play, we are going to run out of pokeballs pretty quickly (mostly due to the incense box). You could make it so that everyone gets a "portable pokestop" that is tied to 1 spot (wherever you activate it). This would not show to other players so people cant group up/group devices and spam pokeballs. Would be a great way to keep up stop streaks and getting gifts. Also allows us to not run out of pokeballs! [link] [comments] | ||
| Niantic should bring back shiny meltan to replace abra community day Posted: 12 Mar 2020 08:09 PM PDT They could bring it back for about 2 weeks like they did last time. It would also be an interesting pokémon to give a community day move to. Edit: obviously abra community day would still be held later and meltan would need to come from the boxes every 3 days [link] [comments] | ||
| Just hatched a shiny party hat Squirtle. Idk how to feel. Posted: 13 Mar 2020 07:20 AM PDT Idek what to say. My face dropped when the party hat came out to ruin it's pure image. I think I'm sad and disappointed. [link] [comments] | ||
| Unpopular opinion: Niantic's monetization strategies are very user friendly and fair Posted: 12 Mar 2020 03:44 PM PDT Disclaimer: I do not work for Niantic or have any financial interest in Niantic. Im a recent grad currently working a low paying salaried position in my field, with not that much discretionary income. I still think that Niantic's monetization strategies are extremely fair to the user. I am tired of seeing people complaining that it is unfair and making very irrational statements. For example, people are complaning about a 99 cent paid research on Community day. What's 99 cent to you for a game you love playing? You probably spend 5 times that daily on a cup of coffee. But 99 cents to support a game you love is too much. The Genesect special research is still very fair. You get a lot of value for your money in the form of in game items and of course the encounter way before every one else. 8.99 is NOTHING for a game you love and support. Everyone complaining please put things in perspective . Supporting a game you love is good; complaining about spending a few dollars occasionally for a game you love is not. It's neither attractive nor reasonable. [link] [comments] | ||
| Further updates ideas for Niantic to help with the current situation. Posted: 13 Mar 2020 03:39 AM PDT It is bad and it's getting worse. Niantic started really well with the incense buff and offer. Kudos! But there are two more changes that I think will make the most out of this bad situation:
I really think these would alleviate the situation and reduce the chance of spreading the virus. [link] [comments] | ||
| Niantic should stop events everywhere Posted: 12 Mar 2020 11:41 AM PDT With the coronavirus landing in all continents with permanent residents and public gatherings being shut down left and right, the responsible thing would be to stop PoGo players from assembling. Raids should stop, GBL should not require walking and there should definetly be no community days. Would this hurt their bottom line? Sure, but for example, here in Colombia coronavirus has already infected a few people in three cities. Community days are largely played on malls and parks, where dozens to hundreds of people come, and have a chance to get infected too. A couple of months until everything is back in control would do wonders. It's not enough to limit it to countries that quarantine themselves. Edit: Corrected for Antartica Edit2: Niantic followed through. [link] [comments] | ||
| A new Special Research story event is coming: A Drive to Investigate! Posted: 12 Mar 2020 01:02 PM PDT

| As a day one rural player, this pretty much makes my year! Posted: 13 Mar 2020 08:35 AM PDT I'm a rural player, so doing 5 star raids is impossible unless I drive 30 minutes to the city and get lucky enough to find a raid group. I saw the news and tried my luck with the GBL. I haven't seen Darkrai, but this is a great shiny too! And my first dex entry for it as well! https://ibb.co/H7BxRNS [link] [comments] | ||
| How about this month's Raid Pokémon / legendaries in field / special research? Posted: 13 Mar 2020 04:28 AM PDT Here's a suggestion for the folks at Niantic - With the COVID-19 pandemic in mind, why not open up a few field / special research tasks with this month's Raid bosses (Timburr, Togetic, etc) and legendaries (Darkrai, Cresselia, Giratina, Lugia, etc)? Tying together with the Incense discount, the tasks could be catching a significant amount of Pokémon (say, 10 or 15 of a specific type) and then having the raid boss as a normal encounter reward. With social distancing protocols and large gathering spaces closed or empty (the Disney parks here in Florida come to mind, closing starting this weekend), it will become very difficult for people to do 3-, 4- or 5-star raids. Thoughts? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 13 Mar 2020 07:33 AM PDT After several days of no luck with Shiny Cresselia or Registeel, this about makes up for it. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 12 Mar 2020 09:06 PM PDT https://imgur.com/gallery/Y5LOpZY I finally have a shiny Gardevoir!! I've only been playing since last December so I'm pretty proud! :) [link] [comments] | ||
| Guys I think this one might be too close to call Posted: 12 Mar 2020 07:34 PM PDT https://imgur.com/a/02qUbNQ I have confidence in my pokemon's ability but I think he still might be in trouble here. [link] [comments] |
