    There's this Pokéstop/Gym near me which seems inappropriate. Can I report it?

    Use this link. However, Niantic seems to be preoccupied with other things now, so don't expect too much.

    We have Niantic representatives on both here and /r/TheSilphRoad - please do not ping them for bugs which are in the known issues page unless you have found a niche yet gamebreaking issue/exploit.

    Farewell best buddy, too bad I can't use a PokeFlute where you're going

    Having an IRL partner made this game so much more enjoyable, especially in the early days of crashes, boring spawns, and proximity radars.

    Despite his lack of mobility near the end, our travels run far and wide. He inspired traversing the wilderness, taking on the most remote gyms in the middle of the woods. NGL, it's gonna be mighty lonely.

    Edit: since so many were asking, his name is Naga, after TLoK. Many thanks for the condolences from all

    Edit 2:

    I think it's also important to note that Naga was adopted. I know adoption isn't the best choice for everyone, but it should be at least considered. Please check your local listings when looking to expand your fur family. You may be pleasantly surprised. We had our hands full, but Naga taught us very valuable lessons in the process that would not have been learned if we had gone to a breeder.

    Paraphrased from the author of the children's book "before you were mine":

    Adopting a pet has a sort of ripple effect, in that shelters can make room for a new dog or cat that may be scared on the streets or alleyways. Unfortunately, shelters do not have an infinite amount of capacity, and many animals get destroyed as a result.

    I think today my luck in POGO peaked. I did not even know this was possible

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 01:36 PM PDT

    I was casual doing my daily raid at my nearby gym and was walking home. This badboy awaited my at home: https://imgur.com/a/RWWABjU

    My hands were shacking when I was trying to catch it. It broke out several times and I feard it may run away. Luckily I was able to catch it. Felt so happy. One of my favourite Pokémon.

    advice? My pops accidently incubated an egg that(probably) isn't part of the pikachu family on his pikachu-only-account. Account Stats: Pokedéx: 3, walked: 12,056.4km, level 40.

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 11:16 PM PDT

    some quick background: my dad started a Pikachu only account back in 2019 (This was a reddit thread that gained recognition), reached level 40, and was actively playing on his account until recently...

    He was messing around on his account and incubated a random egg by accident. He's been an active player, even after capping at level 40 he's been actively gifting and helping people level-up as well as making plenty of poke-stop submissions (can't level-up past 40 due to the challenges involving catching other Pokémon).

    He's had some foreign articles written on him such as this one and this one for his accomplishment as one of the first Pokémon GO players to one-trick with a focus on a single Pokémon.

    quoting the man himself (u/naonpikachu): "As there is no way to cancel the hatching process I couldn't take the risk of hatching whatever might come out so I turned off my adventure synch and logged out of my account. " So for those on reddit who are still friends with him and noticed his inactivity, this is why lol

    So the question is does he log out of the account permanently and leave the account as a legacy or should we try and contact Niantic support and see if there's anything they could do about it?

    I didn't realize the date on the egg whenever I selected it to my incubator lol. It has to be one of the first eggs I ever received.

    Appraised at three stars as well! 😅

    I think I found a god in the making today.

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 04:59 AM PDT

    He kind of looks like a Bidoof, though 🤔. Kind of puny too.. but he's a mega and has more than one attack so maybe it's a game changer? He also seems to have a FIRM CHANGE BUTTon and can evolve into Bibarel and back on demand.

    Maybe we are witnessing a new god.

    ..but at what cost?

    Your Kind Assistance,Please: Niantic Needs to Listen

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 07:57 AM PDT

    Over on Twitter, admist all the saltiness against the upcoming changes to the gym/stop interaction radius (aka, reverting quarantine QOL updates), there are some genuine, good points and thoughts being expressed.

    There are some who disagree; I respect there are other opinions. Some see nothing wrong and welcome the changes.

    This discussion, however, is not centered on agree vs. disagree/ reasons supporting each side, as there are MANY other discussions regarding that going on now.

    Rather: This is focused on details of a boycott, IF you are interested, please.

    Niantic isn't listening to those opposed, refusing to acknowledge this portion of the playerbase's opinions. Rather, they post silly Bidoof-themed tweets.

    At least 3 petitions (that I'm aware of) have gained over 80k signatures, the last time I looked. They're constantly receiving support.

    Well-known PokémonGO YouTubers are united against the upcoming changes.

    Niantic says nothing in response.

    Here's where the influence and power of Reddit come in:

    Twitter's too chaotic to properly organize a boycott; so a suggestion was made to plead for your kind assistance with:

    1. Deciding when to boycott
    2. Determining how long it lasts
    3. Agreeing it is a zero spend/ zero login boycott
    4. Agreeing on a hashtag
    5. Spreading the word

    Many thanks for listening. Kind Regards,

    Elegant Nerd

    Edit: fixed typos

    What is the easiest way to get 10km eggs

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 07:41 AM PDT

    I'm trying to hatch some Riolu's in hope to get a hundo or a great IV at least, so before I waste all my incubators 5km eggs I would like to know if there is a special way to get lots of them and in that case how??

    No limit on raid passes

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 11:32 AM PDT

    Niantic should seriously consider removing the cap on raid/remote raid passes that you can have in your bag. It would make the game much more enjoyable for players in rural areas.

    I know that they won't because it's a great income earner but it would be nice if corporations and consumers could have a more mutually beneficial relationship.

    Edit for info: 1. I am only talking about raid and remote raid passes. (I noticed someone mention battle passes and I'm personally not interested in those at all.)

    1. Being able to "hoard" remote raid passes in particular would make it so much easier to actually participate in raids for mons you might need to fill a dex or build a team or whatever (mainly thanks to pokegenie etc).

    2. If you don't live near to a gym and are depending on research rewards etc to get those passes, you should be able to hold as many of them as you want at any one time simply because you can't easily access that guaranteed free one.

    So what is everyone's plans/hopes for the Go Fest make up event?

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 02:25 PM PDT

    All day Mewtwo? Guaranteed XL from raids? More free passes? New shiny?

    Lucky Tropius at Midnight on Vacation in America

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 08:46 AM PDT

    I've always wanted a Tropius given that you can't find it in America and how cool it would be to have one to show my friends and use in the game. I found someone on discord in my county in my home state of Florida who was willing to trade one he got after having just visited Spain. On the day we were supposed to make the exchange I got no response so I was very dissapointed for a couple days. Out of nowhere while I was on vacation by a beach an hour away he messaged me saying he felt bad for not trading it to me. He then drove an hour to trade it to me while I was on vacation. I ended up with a 3 star LUCKY Tropius! Best luck ever!

    Bidoof Candy

    0 iv shiny chikorita

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 09:28 AM PDT

    I was looking through my shinies and checking ivs and i noticed my shiny chikorita was 0 across the board. I was just wondering how rare that actually is.

    Is my max ATK and DEF IV, but 0 HP Murkrow worth investing in?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 09:27 AM PDT

    I just caught it, and I know it's not meant to be bulky in the first place, but...I'm not sure if max DEF instead of HP will make too big of a difference. It has no stars in HP at all. I'm probably overthinking this and am picky with Shadow Pokemon

    Boosting levels

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 09:10 AM PDT

    I'm level 25 right now, and I don't live in a particularly crowded area. There are some pokestops and gyms, but that requires me to go outside and spin them. How can I quickly boost exp level, and also are there any perks to having a high level?

    What’s your record for Shiny encounters in one day? (Excluding Community days)

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 08:09 AM PDT

    Yesterday I seemed to have mental luck, woke up and checked PoGo, first encounter was a shiny Lillipup.

    Only an hour later I encountered a Shiny Taillow, followed by a Shiny Bidoof a few hours later.

    Then, to top it off, I caught a Shiny Shadow Sneasel later that evening!

    4 Shiny Pokémon in one day, and one of them was a Shadow Shiny!

    What's the most Shiny Pokémon you've ever caught in one day?

    Is it just me or are Pokémon harder to catch after the update?

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 06:11 PM PDT

    Right after the update every time I try to catch a Pokémon they breakout and it's even happened with a 200 CP Pokémon, I used a Ultraball and a berry and it broke out and ran away.

    How rare is it to find an evolution of Eevee in the wild? (Flareon, Vaporeon, etc.)

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 07:52 AM PDT

    A couple days ago I found a Flareon with 1632 cp. I caught it. I had never seen an evolution of Eevee in the wild, and I thought the only way you could get these Pokémon was by evolving Eevee. Is it very rare to find one of those Pokémon?
