    Pokémon GO - Seasonal Beauty

    Pokémon GO - Seasonal Beauty


    Seasonal Beauty

    Posted: 18 May 2021 05:33 AM PDT

    Last night I found a group of 4 team Valor gyms near me where a player called Jalieus had placed each of the sawsbuck forms. Looked super cool so I couldn't bring myself to take them in the name of Mystic and had to screenshot to share with you all:

    My Blissy brings me the WORST souvenirs :(

    Posted: 17 May 2021 12:37 PM PDT

    Guys, my blissy seemingly wanders around Brooklyn and brings me bizarre gifts. I should swap her out for a less disturbed pokemon methinks.

    I painted Gible for community day!

    Posted: 18 May 2021 07:19 AM PDT

    I've painted a few Pokémon portraits before but Gible is one of my favorites. I hope everyone gets a shundo! I am planning on painting Gabite and Garchomp before June 6th.

    Stardust question

    Posted: 18 May 2021 02:34 AM PDT

    So I'm level 37, never used stardust to level up any of my pokemon (with the highest level being Landorus with like 2700 something CP).

    I'm sitting on close to 3million stardust and am not sure whether I'll need to use some of it on my stronger, 3* mons or not.

    I mainly do raids and like no PvP unless it's for a task. Is it worth using the stardust now that I'm at a higher level or should I keep saving?

    Cliff's Aerodactyl seems impossible to catch.

    Posted: 18 May 2021 05:50 AM PDT

    I know it's NOT impossible, obviously, but the odds definitely seem stacked against you. You only get five shots and Aerodactyl commonly breaks out since it has a red circle even with berries, so even if by some miracle you land every throw you're more likely to walk away from each attempt with nothing than you are with a catch.

    I'm honestly over it at this point and commend anyone that was lucky enough to succeed. It wouldn't be so bad if Aerodactyl was at least guaranteed to be super strong, but most pretty much have to be powered up to be of any use so it's usually not worth anything more than a Pokedex entry. That's just not enough to justify all the potions and revives imo.

    Niantics game and pricing policy is getting worse by the day

    Posted: 18 May 2021 08:11 AM PDT

    So let me get this straight: I don't mind cosmetics. I even don't mind loot boxes or raid passes or basically anything that's currently in the shop. A free to play game has to make money. I get that and appreciate that the game is not completely pay to win.

    BUT i do mind the constant min-maxing of Niantic trying to squeeze resources out of the player and i don't understand how this is supposed to be profitable for them.

    What does Niantic gain by squeezing stardust out of you with "Power-Up Pokemon X Times"-quests, "Purify X Pokemon"-quests or even "Use X Golden Razzberries"-quests? The percentage of players who will invest in star pieces or raid passes because of this has to be so incedibly low. And for everybody else, it just feels bad.

    They just released the first pokemon which requires the use of an incense to evolve. I really don't like where this is going.

    Same thing with raid pokemon fleeing. You already payed for the raid pass and invested revives/potions to beat the raid and golden razzberries trying to catch the pokemon. Why is there a possibility of it fleeing after that? The percentage they gain out of decreasing the catchrate has to be very low and it just feels SO bad for the players. I have friends who quit the game after not catching multiple raid-legendaries in a row.

    And i feel like this is getting worse by the day. Almost every newly released pokemon requires great or ultraballs to catch for the first few weeks until they change the catchrate. Again: It feels really bad, but has to generate next to no money for them (and i don't even think they want to generate money from this because otherwise they would let you buy ultraballs from the shop).

    And don't even get me started on Eggs.

    It seems to me like this is a case of the financial management only caring about "average online time" and "average money spent". And they want to see both numbers go up, whatever the cost. I hate this approach of making profit. It gradually takes away the fun and there are better ways to make money from a free to play game.

    TLDR: I would really appeciate if, instead of min-maxing the basic functions of the game, we could get some additional stuff (like cosmetic items for pokemon) to spend money on and Niantic would balance quests, raids, eggs, new pokemon releases and other basic functions of the game to be actual fun and feel rewarding.

    Has Team Rocket leaders run out of all pokemon?

    Really disappointing to see Arlo now comes up with Venonat, not Beldum anymore!!!

    Is Yveltal worth raiding after catching your first?

    Posted: 18 May 2021 07:51 AM PDT

    I can't find any information online as to whether Yveltal is useful for battling in raids - is it worth raiding to get a decent one or should I save my passes?

    Many thanks!

    Team GO Rocket

    Posted: 18 May 2021 05:47 AM PDT

    Do Team GO Rocket balloons still appear every 4 hours (12am, 4am, 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm) during the event? It would be cool if the balloons appear every two hours according to the global challenge...

    Regards from germany and happy shiny hunting!

    Got lucky on the last day of the X

    Posted: 17 May 2021 11:47 AM PDT

    Got pretty lucky today in the last day of the event. Found myself a perfect dragonite and I'm super happy! None of my friends play, so i didn't know who to tell.

    Time to start farming that stardust tho.

    Times zones in spotlight hours/events

    Posted: 18 May 2021 08:34 AM PDT

    *Disclaimer! This is just pure curiosity as I am nowhere near my neighboring time zones*

    Could a person participate in a spotlight hour or another event in one time zone then drive/walk over to another time zone to get an extra hour? Would the person need to restart the app? Adjust your phone's clock if it doesn't self adjust? Has Niantic thought about this and enforced ways to prevent players from doing this? Just interested!

    Legendary raids

    Posted: 18 May 2021 08:29 AM PDT

    I am really annoyed at how hard it is to catch legendary raids. Me and a few friends did an yveltal raid earlier and only one of us got it. I think they should make the legendary raid catch rate less because it cost all of us a remote raid pass, our pokemons health (a couple of my friends are low on revives) and time that we could use on a different raid. I used up about 5 golden razzes and all of them with a great curveball. I hope this gets easier soon.

    Purify a 3* shadow Dratini?

    Posted: 18 May 2021 08:21 AM PDT

    My shadow dratini has quite high 3* stats. Do I purify it to get the stat boost to 4*, or leave it as it is, as shadow Pokemon are supposedly stronger?

    GO League BS

    Posted: 18 May 2021 08:05 AM PDT

    Do any of you who use a team of 3 legendaries actually feel good about yourselves when you win? Come up with something original for Christ's sake. The amount of Kyogre/Dialga/Mewtwo teams I've seen is ridiculous. Like playing the game with a handicap on.

    What happened to the variety?

    Posted: 17 May 2021 09:56 AM PDT

    Pokémon GO used to have such a large variety of Pokémon to be found in the wild. After the year Pokémon GO took off I stopped playing. I came back earlier this year and keep seeing the same 5-6 Pokémon, even in raids. Is there a meaning to this?? What happened?

    For some reason, I just had to have a Pangoro before the Y event and spotlight hour showered us in wild dark spawns. Hunted down every dark and fire grunt I could find over two nights and got my trophy. My machamps and heracross think I'm a monster.

    1st raid gets me a hundo Yveltal

    Posted: 18 May 2021 01:13 AM PDT

    My very first Yveltal raid brings me a hundo pokemon. I am a very casual player who is free to play and hence dont raid very often and this is my 9th hundo pokemon. So this is extra special. :-)

    What do you think the next season will be?

    Posted: 17 May 2021 09:45 PM PDT

    Next season will be our third since the inception of seasonal gameplay (excluding the previous GBL seasons before).

    The first season, Season of Celebration, was centered around celebrating all of the regions available in the game, with events featuring each of the regions and of course, the Tour: Kanto event.

    The second and current season, Season of Legends, has emphasized legendaries and raiding a lot (although, ironically, with Yveltal-included, there's been a total of 11 different legendary raid bosses, which is less than Celebration's 15).

    So, what do you all think the next season will be called/center around? In a normal time, I think a Season of Exploration would be very appropriate, with it likely also coinciding with the annual Adventure Week. With not everything being normal though... I'm hesitant on this one happening for next season. Not impossible, but it doesn't seem like the best idea.

    But what do you all think? Any ideas on what the next season will be called/themed around?

    Cliff Post Freedom

    Posted: 18 May 2021 06:24 AM PDT

    I think we will finally have freedom from people asking how to defeat cliff over and over again because I swear to god if you can't beat a flipping seedot and come here to complain I'm going to lose it.
