Pokémon Go

This new update is helpful.  Wow it's been a long time since I last updated here. 

A long time ago I caught my second shiny and I caught a third one about a month or two ago I think.

I'd have to look it up and I'm too lazy to do that.  I was close to leveling up before the update and now I'm level 30.

I haven't been able to update. It sends me to the playstore and then it says "waiting for download" forever after I initiate. Given I've barely left the house in a week+ it hasn't a pressing issue.

Bam! 😮

[1pooh4u]

It’s only the second Riolu I have 

[Raptorpat]

I've only booted up a couple times since the shutdown began. It would be easier if they preserved intermittent streaks right now, because otherwise I'm all "why bother play if I'm not going to go out tomorrow to continue the streak".

[1pooh4u]

I’ve been very lucky with hatching shiny 😮

So there's a pokestop I can reach from my mailbox now. Suddenly started to get the mail every day.

Remote raid battles are live. For 1 coin you get 3 remote raid passes in the shop.  They’re 100 coin for 1. 3 for 250

yea pretty shitty we can't use daily passes remotely for quarantine, but remote will eventually have an invite component. Pokestop spin distance also increased to match gym

[1pooh4u]

I’m glad they fixed stops. I know they just recently made it so you had to be practically on top of the stop. I’m glad they switched back. 
 

for now, remote raid passes will allow you to be equal to people that are there, eventually remote passes won’t allow you to be as strong as being there. 

[1pooh4u]

Does anyone understand the formula for pvp IVs

example my bf hatched a 96% IV riolu, but for pvp it’s only 81%.  Fuckin math. I hate it. 

[1pooh4u]

Got this today 

 

[1pooh4u]

Went on a shiny streak

 

[1pooh4u]

I used a remote raid pass last week for reshiram, lol, if you don’t win you have to use an additional pass to try again.  Not fun. 

[Raptorpat]

I haven't come across a populated room to join remotely yet. But that's def garbodor that the pass is single use even when failing.

It might be different now, but I’m not willing to find out. 😬😆

[viperxmns]

There was a weird bug where you need a second remote pass to re enter, but a raid will only consume one pass

I dunno, I def had to buy more to try again. I didn’t even think to contact Niantic. Too late now. I guess it’s possible I bought more but they weren’t really used?  
 

I really want this new Legendary. It’s cool af 😆

[viperxmns]

Did you check that you physically had one remote pass left after the raid? We can hold up to 3 at a time, so see if it actually uses more than one up. It may ask for a second pass but it won't use it up, but yea that's broken if you already have one left and it's like forcing you to buy another, you could email for free pass, they've given remotes to ppl

Zekrom is the new best electric type, managed to get a fundo Reshiram but not much luck for Zekrom atm

[Raptorpat]

one of the emails about team rocket balloons was supposed to give you a promo code for the Pokemon GO shop but i couldn't log in with a ptc account

[Raptorpat]

man this community day is just ghastly

[1pooh4u]

Lol I opted to do GoFest laggy af it was fun. Didn’t get as many shiny as I thought but if I purify shadow moltres it will be my first hundo legendary

Got this  I will eventually purify  idk y I don’t like leaving Pokémon as shadow Pokémon  it makes me feel guilty 😬😆

 

[viperxmns]

Nice, don't purify any shadow legendaries, they're stronger as shadows

I wouldn't purify that Ekans either

[Raptorpat]

Cheeky workaround to having no revives is to power up the fainted Pokemon until they gain HP

[Raptorpat]

hey i caught a perfect magikarp

I haven’t purified any of the Pokémon I got during Go(but stay at home)Fest. I did remove frustration though. 
 

Never got shiny Rayquaza, but I did get Deoxys 

 

[Raptorpat]

wait so what's the deal about not purifying Shadow Pokemons?

I simply don’t have the candy. Some people say they’re stronger but others are saying it’s no different.  From what I see they get an attack bonus but I don’t know how much they give up in defense 

I actually do have the candy to purify if I wanna  eventually I will cuz I’ll feel bad leaving it like this cuz I’m a derp 😆

[1pooh4u]

Finally!  I must’ve encountered 500 Staryu before I got that shiny 🤡💩😆

 

[UwP]

Idk if any of you humans still play  but uhhhh. Add me. Cuz I still do. 😐

[Raptorpat]

the past several legendary raids I've done I've had no luck catching the pokemon after, it's starting to get really frustrating

Or you could ya know, invite a fran. 

[Raptorpat]

ok next time i will invite a fran

[1pooh4u]

I sent a friend request 

I got a “my little Ponyta” 😆

 

[1pooh4u]

He was a brooding, punk rocker....she did ballet 💜

 

[Raptorpat]

Sorry Pooh! I just saw you invited me to a raid. 

I'm gonna have to mess with the pogo push notifications so I don't just assume it's spam.

That’s ok. I was picking random people off my list. It’s tough to send invites without a chat feature, or a discord for coordination 😆

[1pooh4u]

I saw this and lmfao

it also sucks because tabbing out of the game to open up discord or uemb or text messenger or whatever makes the game reboot from scratch half the time

Omg yes!  Half the time I’m afraid to answer my friend’s texts for that reason. It’s very annoying

That seems to be happening a lot for me lately. 

[Raptorpat]

I wish I could figure out the trigger because sometimes it'll be tabbed out for a long time and not need to relaunch and other times it'll need to reload even if I switch out briefly.

I was also trying to figure it out, but idk.  PoGo shouldn’t be shutting down like that so often, especially since I have adventure sync enabled. I don’t think it tracks steps if it shuts down completely. I keep trying to test that but I always forget my km when I start 😆

[viperxmns]

AS has been annoying lately, it randomly isnt tracking distance. Then I have to perform some specific alchemy to make it work again (do I restart? Turn sync off and on again? Refresh fit? Blood sacrifice?) and I'll go back in and it's randomly workjng again, or maybe it isn't 

[1pooh4u]

The game has some weird bugs. When I scan a gym or stop for ar mapping the map looks weird after.  Easy enough to fix, just restart the app, but still seems like a bug nonetheless 

[Raptorpat]

I get a lot of graphical glitches, if I think of it I'll try to get a screenshot of pokemon or my avatar turning into single-color blob artifacts.

[Raptorpat]

sorry @jackiemarie90 i did not see the invite

[1pooh4u]

Anyone else notice their camera roll full of Pokémon snapshots, or is it just me? 😮😆

who is jackiemarie in game?  I have my phone close most of the time and respond to and send invites often.

What do you get with those Pokemon Community Day tickets you pay for like the upcoming Electabuzz one?
