    Pokémon GO - I just realized why TODAY is Slowpoke spotlight hour and not last week


    I just realized why TODAY is Slowpoke spotlight hour and not last week

    Posted: 15 Jun 2021 02:07 PM PDT

    I was super perplexed as to why Slowpoke wasn't last week's spotlight hour during the actual Slow Discovery event when it was literally the featured Pokemon, and Niantic typically themes spotlight hours around the event at the time.

    It's actually extremely clever, Slowpoke is slow and lazy, so it was a week late to spotlight hour

    THIS LAG IS UNPLAYABLE

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 06:08 AM PDT

    I have no idea how Niantic is able to completely fu*k the game over, over and over with bugs and now this insane lag making battle league potato to play and the actual game lag getting worse for every 5min you keep it on.

    Get your sh*t together Niantic, stop putting all your energy on releasing new games like Transformers Heavy Potato Metal and fix the game you got out already.

    Rant over. Have a nice Wednesday. Catch 'em all and all that.

    I always wondered how so many people had Melmetal...

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 07:09 AM PDT

    I have been playing since launch... I try to keep up with events but somehow I just knew about getting the 1 melatan from research and that was it.

    When I saw he was 400 candies to evolve I thought oh I'll just buddy him for a while. 20KM CANDY?! LOL no thanks and moved on.

    Then I kept seeing Metmetals everywhere. I'm over here thinking dang people walk a ton or use Rare candies for him exclusively...

    After using all my Rare Candies for Metwo recently I changed it to Meltan to start pecking away at thoes 400 candies I needed...

    I put at least 40-50 candies into him until running into the gift box TODAY. I saw a thread the other day about open your gift box at a certain time and boom 600 metal candies. I was so lost and I asked what it all meant, and they just kept giving me the math breakdown of meltan and candies and I just needed to know WHAT EFFING GIFT BOX!

    Gave up and saw another thread today that said watch this video... and would you know it after all this time I found out about the Meltan Box you get (APPARENTLY EVERY 3 DAYS IF YOU WANT?!?!) for connecting Pokemon Home and Pokemon GO and transfering a pokemon....

    I have a switch and fully pokedex Sword game. I installed an setup Pokemon Home at launch (but honestly haven't really used it or looked at it much). I thought I connected those two way back when it was release but apparantly not. Today has been so sad ayet so exciting at the same time. Just swimming in Meltan and should have a Melmetal in no time.

    I just learned about the quick catch method with the berry menu as well on Gible day!!

    Been playing since launch but these last few weeks have been eye opening. Is there any more fantastic tricks or tips I have been missing here?!

    TL;DR - Don't Rare Candy your Meltan like me. Just connect Pokemon Home and GO and get the meltan mystery box every three days and you will be swimming in Meltan.

    Does your heart break too when your favorite Pokémon is garbage in pogo?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 07:47 AM PDT

    I've always loved Psychic types. Facing the Elite four with an Alakazam was a guaranteed win. Since Mew and Mewtwo were unobtainable during the game, Alakazam was the best available Psychic type. But they really ruined him. It's so glassy and can't take a hit. Using it in pvp is suicide. I have a maxed one just for the heck of it, but I've never been able to use it.

    Same with Mew. What was supposed to be an amazing Pokémon is meh in the league. Same with Deoxys. At least they did justice to Mewtwo, but I'm really disappointed all my favorite Pokémon are garbage in the game.

    Question about up coming Bidoof event.

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 03:55 AM PDT

    Small spoilers I guess. But as it's been discovered. Bidoof caught during this event will have 3 exclusive moves. Shadow Ball, Thunderbolt and Ice Beam. And, if we evolve then during the week Bibarel will have Hyper Beam. Obviously when you evolve one it'll replace the exclusive move with Hyper Beam, however, will S!Ball T!Bolt and I!Beam still be available in Bibarels move pool, via TM or secondary slot? Because if not I'd much rather keep the unique Bidoof moves for the novelty than a Bibarel with Hyper Beam who I'll never use.

    COVID extras?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 05:10 AM PDT

    Does anyone else feel as if they are rolling back on the extras we got during COVID? Has there been any official announcement?

    Here is what I'm experiencing. There has been a pokestop in reach of my desk since last September when I moved into this spot. Now it's really random when I can or can't reach it. Seems like they are slowly rolling back the extra distance requirements for stops and gyms.

    Favorite Pokemon and why?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2021 12:58 PM PDT

    My favorite pokemon has always been Charmander. His sad childhood in his first appearance episode really hit me hard. I always felt like I could relate to Charmander. Especially when he grew up, evolved into Charizard sure he was rebellious but then again who wasn't as a teen. Once he fully matured he was the most loyal pokemon I ever seen. Especially when my dude started his own family 😭😭😭😭

    Do actual teenagers/kids play this anymore?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2021 07:42 PM PDT

    I literally only ever see middle aged people and slightly younger then middle aged people on the bus playing but I've never met another player my age since lie summer of 2016. It would really make me feel better if I knew it was still relevant to my age group.

    Man it was so cool going down the block and seeing other trainers at the poke stop and like interacting with real people. And the community days man those were fun. Although I never know where they are in my city 😕

    Former Gyms

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 08:00 AM PDT

    The last update changed a sponsored gym to a poke stop. The poke stop now looks slightly different. Does anyone know why this happened? I'll miss that gym.

    Trying to recover my account, only to be given the run around

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 07:24 AM PDT

    For the longest time, I've been using my facebook as a mean to sign into pokemon go, I didn't lose my account or anything but I was render from signing in ever since. At which, I wrote several ticket to Niantic asking for help. I received a replied and was given an instruction to add a different e-mail to my facebook. To which I did but was then ignored. I invest significant amount of time and money into the game because I enjoy the event as well playing with friends. Now I'm disheartened as well lost into seeing that I'm being ignored and left with nothing. Is there anything else I can try? I also attempted to contact their support group via twitter. They responded by giving me the run around with useless thing to do before telling me to just e-mail and wait

    Reporting a Problem to Niantic from Outside of the App

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 09:34 AM PDT

    Does anyone know a good way to contact Niantic support without going through the app? My app hasn't worked at all since Sunday and their website tells me to report issues through the app I can't use.

    I've deleted and reinstalled the game and have reset my phone and still nothing. I just bought PokeCoins last week so I'm considering just disputing the charge through Apple and deleting the app permanently since I can't utilize the coins I purchased.

    If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it.

    Overheat issues

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 09:23 AM PDT

    The game started overheating and lagging my phone since the last update. I can't even make a curveball anymore it's so bad after 30 minutes of play. Never had any issues before like this. Does anyone else experience this kind of proplem, or is it just me? (My phone is not that old, its a galaxy s10+)

    Has anyone else noticed the updated changes in detail in PoGo? For example the subtle shading in Pokémon on the catch screen? Definitely adds more depth to the game!

    Can you even get a pokeball plus anymore?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 09:00 AM PDT

    I went to the nearest Nintendo shop next to my house (about half an hour away) and I looked for a pokeball plus. When I couldn't find one, I asked the cashier and they said the pokeball plus had stopped production. Is there anywhere I can get one without paying a dramatic price?

    [Humor] Remember Ex Raids? Feeling old yet?

    Posted: 15 Jun 2021 03:53 PM PDT

    Remember the days when EX Raids were a thing and everyone was pretty hyped about it? The gyms still have the EX Raid tag.. I remember when I saw like 40-50 people at one EX Raid on time.

    Is this a bug or is it just me?

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 08:51 AM PDT

    I opened Pokemon go today and saw that every time i ran into a Pokemon it had no cry. And this was every pokemon i came across. Everything else seemed normal. Bug?

    Giovanni bug

    Posted: 16 Jun 2021 08:44 AM PDT

    It's happened a few times now but every time I beat Giovanni, I can't catch Electhor. The game bugs completely and I can't do anything unless I close the app and reopen it. I'm getting kinda sad/annoyed because I really want that bird.:/
