Pokémon Go

[1pooh4u]

Special lure module are live. Magnetic Glacial and Mossy 

just evolved magneton and nosepass. Just be near the lure and pick whichever one you want to evolve 

[1pooh4u]

[1pooh4u]

@SorceressPol there are new lure modules. They each create little environments depending on which you use. 

If you’re near a mossy module you can now make leafeon from eevee

The confused reaction was at Probopass. This is my first time seeing that creature. 

I'm so annoyed. I spotted a new pokemon shadow in the nearby pokemon slot and walked around trying to catch whatever the hell it was, and after seeing PokemonGo tweets, it turned out to be the daytime Cherrim. Me wanty cute flower pokemon.

Edited to add: Now I know what probopass reminds me of. It looks like that 70's porn star I saw when I was younger.

It’s a weird  creature 

lol I had to do it 

 

[viperxmns]

Lol

I have this hundo

[blueraven1999]

Just got my first Ho-Oh from doing Field Research.  It's cp1639 with Hidden Power and Fire Blast.

Never got around to it but I caught my first Burmy, Shellos, and Arcanine last week.

 

I had already been catching a lot of Growlithe since I started the game so I evolved the one I had and it was cp2300 something.

I've leveled it up since then and now it's cp2525 with Fire Fang and Fire Blast.  The Arcanine I originally caught wasn't nearly as good with cp1269.

[1pooh4u]

So, if I’m near a glacial or mossy lure and evolve an eevee, do you think that counts as “use an item to evolve a Pokémon”? 

I think it should but ya never know lol 

[viperxmns]

Interesting question, probably doesn't count

I've been having a day (Drowzee powred up)

[1pooh4u]

I raided dinner hour kind of a flop cuz no one wanted to do any raid other than legendary and the group I was with was insane. As soon as the battle said “go” we sped off to the next location. Very dangerous will not do again 😑

seriously I’d rather next time hook up with one or two other people fuck the T5 raids we won’t be able to do. At least we would be able to do the rest. 

PS I never got my free raid pass for the day. I had one but Niantic decided they weren’t giving the other daily during event. I hope that’s not how it’s gonna be from now on 😐

[viperxmns]

Unfortunately that extra pass thing didn't pan out

Yea I'm bored with Azelf been sticking to Raichu, Maro, Shinx if I can help it

Allegedly Slaking CD move maybe Body Slam

I didn't mind doing them, my bf can't catch one, I'm 4 out of 4 and he's 0-4, but I really wanted to do some chansey and dragonite raids, even shinx as all mine aren't worth evolving and I have no shiny.  My bf and I can do some T4 raids alone, it depends.  

Slaking can't ever get a fast move that deals some damage?  Cuz that woulda been nice, lol

[Raptorpat]

My phone shit the bed so I finally got a new one after five years. The game runs so much better now!

[1pooh4u]

I was only able to do one raid during Lapras raid. So lol of course no shiny 😆☹️😆

I want to do a raid so badly but even with access to transportation, unless I went to a bigger city, there wouldn't be anyone else to show up.

Went ahead and evolved some Eevee into Leafeon and Glaceon using the name thing because I rarely find any shinies and don't want to wait until then. It's nice that once you change the pokemon's name, it's 'question mark' status turns into the shadow of what you're hoping to evolve it into. Even though I researched the fuck out of the previous Eevee evolutions, it still felt like a crap shoot about what you were gonna get without visual confirmation that the name trick was gonna work.

Yeah the name trick is pretty straight forward I see a lot of people getting jacked up when they walk eevee for umbreon and espeon. Usually they do it wrong time of day or they got no gps signal, or they remove it as a buddy. Lots of ways to screw that one up. 

I was in Manhattan so finding people raiding wasn’t a problem but I was with 7 other people and I didn’t wanna be rude. 😬

apparently going to be snorlaxes everywhere soon

it's a tie-in to their announcement that they're developing a new "pokemon go plus +" device for release in 2020 that will also record your sleep activity (they didn't reveal how it will affect the game yet though)

[viperxmns]

Yeah they're all guaranteed catch on third ball, doesn't use extra balls if you don't miss, exclusive useless move Yawn, you can use pinap at the beginning for 6 candy

Lucky friend trade last night <3

Now to wait for community day x..x

[viperxmns]

Still no shiny Cresselia but finally one o deez

Legendary second moves only cost 25 candy for a while today but they patched it, bought Overheat for hundo Sky Attack Moltres

[viperxmns]

Body Slam confirmed for Slaking community day

[viperxmns]

No shiny yet but finally a perfect snek

[1pooh4u]

I would have rather it gotten a fast move that deals at least a little damage, however body slam will charge up faster and more often than play rough and hyperbeam so I guess that’s a plus?

 I am assuming that in the main games Slaking doesn’t have a fast move that hurts?

also I didn’t raid dinner hour. Couldn’t find enough people willing to NOT race around in their cars like jack asses 😬

[1pooh4u]

Seriously I can’t convince the younglings that we’re doing EXACTLY what Niantic and other people on the road don’t want us to do 😑

[viperxmns]

Yea Slaking's kinda 'not allowed' to have a fast move

I guess BS is harder to dodge and charges faster, but is less damaging w not as much coverage as Play Rough

In the main games, slaking has one of the highest attack stats out of anything, but it can only attack every other turn (because it's a giant sloth).

I think Niantic translated that badly cuz yawn does nothing and a hyperbeam Slaking probably won't get a charge off on me before I faint it.  So it's gotta be more than every other turn in this game, right?  

 

 

[Raptorpat]

This game isn't turn-based like the main ones, but I dunno why they wouldn't just let him have a fast move that's stronger but slower than a regular fast move.

[1pooh4u]

The whole gym battle mechanic is stupid with the motivation. It renders Slaking even more useless because he degrades so quickly. 

This game just isn’t hard enough when it comes to battles. 😬

[1pooh4u]

☹️ I think I’m getting bored with the game ☹️

[viperxmns]

Slaking is mainly a vehicle for play rough, with full motivation he can keep you on your toes because if it hits you you will die

Encountering a yawn Snorlax in a gym you feel bad for the poor guy, he's just doing his jumping jacks and you're beating him up

I have a Slaking with play rough and left it for that reason, same reason I left dazzling gleam on my Blissey

They're easy enough to dodge but you still take some damage

They need something between this gym mechanic and the original one.

One thing I wish they'd change is the first people in are the first knocked out and I'll tell you why:

Out here we got massive dicks with accounts on all teams and they snipe the first person out of the gym, stick shit in there and then they're protected.  Why should the person doing ALL THE WORK be knocked out first, that's bs.

I know, I know, a low CP piece of shit Pokemon still has to be fought 3 times, however there's a huge difference between smacking a pidgey twice and actually having to battle a fully motivated Snorlax, or even a Blissey.

Shiny Raikou, Entei, Suicune 

[1pooh4u]

😮

 

[1pooh4u]

Is there a specific event going on other than a global catch challenge?  I don’t know how percentages work but it’s like 90% of the Pokémon spawning are potentially shiny. 

Tons of

snorunt

sableeye

swinub

magikarp

drifloon

horsea

way too many to list 😆

[viperxmns]

tandem w Go Fest

Got a decent IV shiny Karp and a Swinub today, Cherubi dex

[1pooh4u]

Nice

Nice.  I caught a shiny horsea yesterday too.  I evolved it today and made it my buddy. 

Caught a bunch of horsea yesterday and some today too so I'm currently at 167 candies.

[blueraven1999]

I've had really good shiny luck lately.  Caught a shiny horsea yesterday along with a second shiny magikarp.

On June 1st, I caught a shiny Shinx.  Earlier this week, I evolved one of my eevees into Glaceon using the glacial lure module.

It's cp2193 but I plan on powering it up soon.  Also caught my first Finneon using it so that was nice.

Edit:  Meant to say on June 1st, I hatched a shiny Shinx.  Not caught.  Not a huge difference though.

The shiny shinx is cool but I love how the regular shinx looks so I plan on evolving that one first once I get enough candies for it.

Also this week I got the Magnetic lure module so eventually I'll use it.

That’s awesome. I caught a shiny swinub too but alas the shiny magikarp eludes me. (I traded for the ones I have)

Thanks.  I hope you catch a shiny magikarp soon.  I don't remember if I caught, hatched, or got my

first shiny magikarp from Field Research.  I think I got it from Field Research.

[viperxmns]

I need a shiny Shinx T^T

[blueraven1999]

Yesterday morning I got the Gold jogger badge for walking 1000 km. 

Don't remember if I mentioned it or not but a day or two ago I evolved Aipom into Ambipom.  It's cp2049.

[viperxmns]

Finally <3

[blueraven1999]

Well I'm currently in a really bad mood.  The screen on my old smart phone cracked and since it's so cheap,

nobody could fix it so I had to get a new one that's like my old one.  It's just as cheap but I didn't have backup data on my old phone,

so I have to start Pokemon GO from scratch. 

 

Just letting everyone know.  I'm currently making a new account right now.  It's going to take forever to catch up but at least I won't be bored.

Part of the fun is filling up the pokedex.  It's still sad though.  It took me a year and one month to reach level 33 or 34 (Already forget the level I was) and it probably

will take me another year to reach it again.  At least I know a lot more about the game than I did a year ago.

 

I'll ask you guys for your Friend codes eventually.  I'm not ready yet.

It gave me too much trouble so I had to sign up with another account.  I'm not good with passwords and I had my old one on my old phone.

I'm having a hard time just starting over again though.  It won't let me pick a starter.  My phone keeps saying GPS signal not found.

Currently thinking of banging my head against a wall.  Maybe for a couple minutes.  I ever get it working, I'll let you know.
