    Salty Sunday - Rage Rants and complaints

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 01:00 AM PST

    Have you been the one missing the Mewtwo EX raidpass?

    Maybe you haven't been lucky the whole week and that damn raid Tyrannitar ran and everyone else caught him.

    Or the worst part, maybe it's monday again?!

    (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

    Here we rant about everything that goes wrong, someone who sniped a gymspot (  ̄Д ̄), a missed Tyrannitar again (ಠ_ಠ) or that stupid bug which made you miss your raid because of the server desync, ending the raid prematurely (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ

    No personal insults, no trolls and provocation but all salty stuff is accepted.

    • Only salty posts allowed ( ಠ_ಠ )

    • No uncivilty or personal information allowed. ☜(`o´)

    • Complaints can be posted here as well, agree that stuff needs to change here as well, like the spawn rate or gym bugs.

    (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

    Don't forget to hydrate after all the salt!

    Please read this post regarding the rules of the sub before posting

    Posted: 06 Jan 2021 04:49 AM PST

    As we hop into the new year we are making a bigger effort to curb rule breaking posts before they happen. We hope that an education effort will help and have already started with an auto mod message DMing all posters a link to the rules with a message about rule 2b and rule 3 being the most broken rules of the sub so they have a chance to self regulate.

    The rules for the sub are available here in their entirety, but I will break them down into shorter versions in this post for everyone

    So here we go


    Rule 1: Be kind, Be civil, Don't be a creep, don't witch hunt.

    Rule 2a: All posts must be relevant to Pokemon Go, and not simply Pokemon in general. This means that art, crafts, memes, must use assets from Pokemon Go. This means your meme templates need to have something from Go in them. Simply saying something is related to the game is not enough, you must show us it is related to the game if you are posting images.

    Rule 2b: Non AR INGAME SCREENSHOTS and VIDEOS must be posted as a link in the BODY of the post, supported by 100 characters (not 100 words). This formatting rule only applies to Non AR ingame screenshots and videos, and not memes, art or AR images.

    Rule 2f: Please do not share trainer codes for any reason. There is a dedicated subreddit for that, as well as a Discord.

    Rule 3: No cheating. Do not tell others how to cheat, where to get advice on cheating, or how you do or have previously cheated. Play the game the way the creators intended. These are the trainer guidelines as defined by niantic

    Rule 4: Don't spam. If you want to share a Discord, Etsy, website, survey, give away, etc ask permission in modmail first. Unless your group page offers something unique that an affiliated sub or discord doesn't, you will likely be denied, but we are always open to hear about new ideas.

    Please remember this is only a short breakdown of the bulk of the rules, and that the rules in their entirety are available in the hyperlink above.


    Now, a lot of users ask why to some of these rules so here we go. Here is one resource to the why.

    Rule 1: Because nobody likes jerks. We are all here because we love the game. If you have a problem with a user on Reddit, modmail us, if you have a problem with a trainer in the game, contact Niantic. The user base is not here to fight any battles for you.

    Rule 2a: There is another Pokemon sub of equal size. If you want to show off your cards, plush collection, surprised Pikachu meme, general Pokemon drawing etc, it is better suited there. We obviously don't want content that has nothing to do with the game either, there are like a million subreddits, find the right one if it has nothing to do with PokemonGo.

    Rule 2b: We have a bot that removes non ar ingame screenshots and that is literally all it does. It is about 50 percent effective, and still performs something like 10k actions a month. The bulk of our human moderation is honestly catching what it misses. The subreddit would be overwhelmed with non ar screenshots, and essentially useless if we did not attempt to mitigate this through forcing users to post them differently than other images. The alternative to this rule is to simply ban non ar screenshots.

    Rule 2f: Similar to rule 2b, when friend codes first came out, and about every time there is a make 3 friends mission, the sub gets flooded with requests. The automod is much better at catching these than Magic eye is at non ar screenshots so you don't see it, but the spam can get pretty significant, even in the comments on top level posts that have nothing to do with friends codes we see dozens of automatically removed attempts to share codes.

    Rule 3: No one likes cheaters. Even if there is some justification for cheating, like say, there is a pandemic and going outside is risky for your health, the risk to your account is not worth it, and we do not want to be responsible for spreading information that may result in bans. If you are unable to play fair, don't play until you can. There are lots of other games that you can play in the meantime.

    Rule 4: We are not here to make money for any one, we don't make money being moderators. We want anyone who is turning a dollar off linking to this sub, to also be an active member. We want any one using this sub to do research to be verified to some level so we know users aren't being sent to risky sites. We don't want to direct users to cheating groups, and a fractured community is not very beneficial to most users, so we want to peak at any Facebook, Discord, Telegram or similar group before allowing it to be posted. There are already a few well established groups out there, and the affiliated discord is run by different moderators than this subreddit.


    As a warning to all users, we have started issuing short bans for minor rule violations because the rules have been excessively ignored in the past.

    We have a 0 tolerance stance on cheating in this sub and bans are significant to permanent for all rule 3 violations.

    Why have to pay coins for clothes unlocked through challenges? Pretty sad!

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 04:21 AM PDT

    I thought at first when you completed a challenge it would give you that piece of clothing for free! That is however now the case! I wanted to use the pikachu shoes, but why would I waste 200 coins when that's almost enough for 3 raid passes! This makes no sense!!!!

    Your daily gift may have been sent with love

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 10:16 PM PST

    My daughter is a 10 year old super fan. A while back, I helped her build a few friends from random trainer codes on Reddit. It's now been months and she truly thinks of them as real friends. She anxiously awaits gifts each day. She studies each and every postcard picture with a smile and then takes a screen shot so she can look at it again later. She uses her Apple map to look up her friend's states and countries. She takes great care when sending gifts so that her friends get a nice variety. If one of her friends hasn't logged on in awhile, she will save a gift specifically for them. Her gift inventory is well curated. She would never want to send her friends a boring picnic shelter or mailbox,

    Her older siblings make fun her for this but she doesn't care. I personally think it's one of the sweetest thing I've ever seen. I hope she never changes.

    Shadow Metagross info

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 03:31 AM PDT

    Seeing a lot of posts on here asking about shadow Metagross. So, to clear up some questions:

    • Shadow Metagross CAN learn Meteor Mash, but you must have ALREADY used a charged TM to remove frustration.

    • Frustration can only be TM'd away during set times/event windows - unfortunately, now is not one of those times. Last time was Sunday 28th Feb 2021 11AM - 2PM.

    • Shadow Metagross will NOT learn Meteor Mash if it still has frustration, even if it has learned a second charged move.

    • To get Meteor Mash, Metang must be evolved within the time frame stated, which is 11AM - 5PM your local time. It is not a community day and Niantic have not stated that we'll get Meteor Mash after 5pm, so play it safe and evolve inside of the time frame.

    • This is an incense day, not a community day. Activate an incense to get the specified spawns.

    Is catching incense spawns as a passenger in a car still undoable?

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 07:19 AM PDT

    I unfortunately will be spending most of incense day as a passenger in a car riding on the highway (over 55 MPH).

    I know that if you pop an incense the spawns still come, but the last time I did this all of them always jumped out of the balls (like when you are soft banned).

    Does anyone know if that's still the case? Trying to confirm before I waste an incense. Thanks!

    2 poké stops for 1 million people

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 04:56 PM PST

    I live in Iraq. Grew up watching Pokémon. Now my city, who has +1 million population has only two pokestops and no gyms. Beside everything shitty going on in my country. The least I want is proper pokestops and gyms. lol

    Is there any way? Direct contact Pokémon go team ? Or crowdsource people above level 38 to suggest pokestops?

    Purifying Shadow Pokemon Question

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 05:57 AM PDT

    Should I be purifying shadow pokemon as soon as I get them or waiting until they're fully evolved? I got a shadow beldum and I purified it so I can evolve it, however I see people on here with shadow metagross. Should I leave my pokemon as shadow pokemon or not? Also, if I have a shiny pokemon who is also a shadow pokemon should I purify those? Thanks :)
