Congratulations HailTheKing! Your Machamp leveled up to level 78

[fickle sluice]

I wish I had a karp 😔

[rocky wolf]

2020 community day coming up going to be tons of shines

[fossil nymph]

DAMN

[fickle sluice]

Green man

[severe phoenix]

I’m looking forward to the community day

[fickle sluice]

This is my achievement

[rocky wolf]

^

[severe phoenix]

I can catch up on the ones I missed

[robust mountain]

I picked this up 2 days ago and almost threw my phone

[rocky wolf]

Meltan was my best shiny 🔩

[fickle sluice]

That shiny fits so well with the team rocket theme

[glacial lily]

we flexin with shinies?

[severe phoenix]

Ok I have five big sad

[twilit sapphire]

I have 300

[analog steeple]

Aladin

[twilit sapphire]

of course, most of them are repeats from community days, but some are random non event

[severe phoenix]

Whaaat I ran out of name ideas

[night storm]

I have a problem.

[fossil nymph]

Got this a month ago still in shock was from jessie/james

[analog steeple]

I love the name sorry if I made you think otherwise !!!

[tardy loom]

I transferred my Shiny Melmetal to Shield. I got another Shiny Meltan to evolve soon.

[glacial lily]

i got this today

[severe phoenix]

Gunter, Aladin, and unnamed Charmander are random encounter

[fossil nymph]

Anyway interested in trading for a shiny weed caterpiller

Or a fire lizard

Nidoran not for grabs

[severe phoenix]

“Shiny Weed Caterpillar”

[fossil nymph]

What

[twilit sapphire]

we don't have that many distance trading

[fossil nymph]

Its accurate

Oh yeah fuck

[severe phoenix]

sHINY WEED CATERPILLAR

[tardy loom]

I'm fine with my Weed Bat, thank you.

[severe phoenix]

IVE NEVER HEARD ANYONE CALL IT THAT

[muted marlin]

Flexing shinies you say?

[fossil nymph]

Damn

I thought my son was cool 😦

[severe phoenix]

Alright, spit in my eye while your at it why don’t you

[fossil nymph]

He my salad snake

[tardy loom]

He's a nice garden snake.

[fossil nymph]

Yes

With poison on him

[tardy loom]

Hmm...that's an idea.

[fickle sluice]

I play a lot of pogo and

[tardy loom]

A new form for Ekans.

[distant crown]

I have a shiny charmander

[fossil nymph]

Who poisoned my son

[tardy loom]

Grass type

[fickle sluice]

I had another meltan but I raised it to a melmetal and got it into SWSH

[astral oracle]

Oh we flexing shinies? 😀

[twilit sapphire]

why flex a perfect iv shiny when you can flex a 0iv shiny

[tardy loom]

Oh wait, Snivy exists.

[magic jolt]

YOU’RE SO MEAN

[night storm]

I'm so jealous right now

[weary dock]

[jovial raft]

I wasn’t even looking for a shiny Gyrados when I got mine

[severe phoenix]

Why flex at all when you can cry in 5 shinies

[twilit sapphire]

Grove

[tardy loom]

Better to have 5 that to have none at all.

[astral oracle]

Noodly bois = Best bois

[fossil nymph]

Why show off your 0 iv shiny when u can show off your almost perfect son

[muted marlin]

Got this 2 seasons ago from the Go battle league

[severe phoenix]

That is a very fair point

[fossil nymph]

Why no trading general for pogo

[severe phoenix]

Mythicals are impossible to get in every game but Go

[astral oracle]

There is no remote trading right now

[muted marlin]

because that requires you to be in local distance of one another

[fossil nymph]

;((

[tardy loom]

The sub channels were just born.

[fickle sluice]

You can get shinies from go battle league?!

[drowsy granite]

Living in the middle of no where

[tardy loom]

Give em time.

[severe phoenix]

What mythicals have been in Go?

[untold breach]

Anyone interested in Mega Charizard X?

[fossil nymph]

Accurate

[primal gyro]

Swsh had Keldeo doesn't it?

[fossil nymph]

No i have some

[muted marlin]

deoxys, darkrai, mew, celebi

[astral oracle]

It's crazy how much shiny Mythicals have been diluted because of PoGo

[severe phoenix]

Damn I missed Darkrai

[fickle sluice]

Literally me as well 😔

[fossil nymph]

Yep

[drowsy granite]

[severe phoenix]

Mew, Jirachi, and Genesect are in it as well

[fickle sluice]

@untold breach YES I AM SO INTERESTED

[muted marlin]

and victini

[severe phoenix]

Bruh, lucky

[fickle sluice]

Cries in no shiny legends and only 2 legendaries 😔

[severe phoenix]

If only I had HOME Premium, maybe I could trade for one

[astral oracle]

Ha I've been a hardcore PoGo player aince day 1 ha

[fickle sluice]

I’m getting there!

[fossil nymph]

Theres nothing here ugh

[astral oracle]

So the stuff adds up over 4 years

[severe phoenix]

Cries in 5 shinies and no legendaries

[fickle sluice]

I’ve been a POGO player since day 1 too, but I took a break and then came back

Aww I’m sorry Hail

[astral oracle]

@severe phoenix you'll get them

Just get some friends from here and you can remote raid for Legendaries

[twilit sapphire]

i'm from day 1 too but my phone died and couldn't play for 2 years

[astral oracle]

Kyurem is a pretty attractive boss right now for Candy

[fickle sluice]

Yeah you will eventually! Catching legends in raids is hard, but once you learn techniques it gets easier

[fossil nymph]

I sent my shiny nidoking to lets go and a charizard and i think theyre stayin there

[primal gyro]

I quit at the end of 2016 and only started playing again with Home intergration.

[fickle sluice]

Oooh I got a kyruem first try somehow

[fossil nymph]

Guys is nidoking in sword sheild isisns

[fickle sluice]

I only got a nice throw and caught it

[primal gyro]

Sadly in 2016 there weren't any shinies

[fickle sluice]

Oh yeah, I also used to have two shiny dratini from like an event a year ago

[primal gyro]

All I got is pikachu with a hat on it

[fickle sluice]

But I put them to SWSH

[astral oracle]

You should have seen the rates from Magikarp Community Day

[fossil nymph]

Whats everyones rarest non shiny?

[amber citrus]

Cday next weekend is gonna be epic

[severe phoenix]

I like getting the rarer mons, but I got bullied pretty hardcore over getting caught playing PoGo a week after launch and stopped playing it cuz it was a lot. Sooo, from 2016 to recently, I missed out on a tonnnn of events

[astral oracle]

Magikarp CD I walked away with 65 shiny Karp

[severe phoenix]

Including good ol Nightmare Nicholas

[astral oracle]

It's just wild

[fickle sluice]

Rarest non-shiny is... maybe Galarian Linoone or Azelf? Not sure if that’s rare or not

[charred rapids]

my "rarest" is a dragonite with reaaally low cp

[fickle sluice]

I also have tons of pikachu’s with hats from years ago and more recently

[astral oracle]

In PoGo, rarity is more defined by moveset

[severe phoenix]

I’m working on getting my G Linoone to Obstagoon

[astral oracle]

So legacy movesets are what are rare

[fossil nymph]

Haha strong child

[twilit sapphire]

3 meltans, maybe

[charred rapids]

i have a lot of old mons, so. those probably havr rarer movesets

[fickle sluice]

WOAH that’s a strong litleo wow

[fossil nymph]

Thank you

[amber citrus]

Right now klefki is the rarest from gen 6

[fossil nymph]

Shes gonna be a big girl soon

[twilit sapphire]

stinky

[astral oracle]

Yeah just type "special" into your search. Bar

[fickle sluice]

How do you check for legacy moves?

[astral oracle]

You'll get legacy movesets that way

[twilit sapphire]

@special in your search bar

[astral oracle]

Yep I forgot the @

[twilit sapphire]

it will bring up special moves like community day exclusives

and some other event moves

[fickle sluice]

Ohh nothing shows up

[severe phoenix]

Well I guess Spanish class is helping, cuz I could understand 50% of that

[astral oracle]

My oldest legacy

[severe phoenix]

Does anyone else here try to do Mythical trades?

[astral oracle]

It's not possible

You can only trade Meltan

[severe phoenix]

Oh, bro in PoGo

[twilit sapphire]

you can't trade myths

[severe phoenix]

*not not bro

[weary dock]

mega raid up in #784549787156349001

[astral oracle]

Meltan is the only exception

[charred rapids]

he's SO strong

[night storm]

Meltan is the only Mythical that follows no other Mythical rules

[severe phoenix]

I meant in Home/SwSh

I’m working on a Mythical Dex, and it feels impossible because of ridiculous trades and greedy-ish people

[charred rapids]

Congratulations HailTheKing! Your Machamp leveled up to level 79

[astral oracle]

That you can do for sure with Friend trades. I've already done Shiny Genesect and Shiny Darkrai trades

[severe phoenix]

I wish I had a Shiny Darkrai

[astral oracle]

It'll come back

PoGo always brings things back

[severe phoenix]

A nice person I met in the server gave me a Shiny Genesect tho

And I appreciate it a lot because that was a huuuge step in the right direction for my Dex

[noble acorn]

spsaking of pogo, caught this beaut today

[severe phoenix]

Now he be zoomin on Sword

[noble acorn]

[severe phoenix]

Damn how does one get so many candies

[astral oracle]

[severe phoenix]

I don’t have a car yet and am not allowed to walk around town alone so it’s rough for me

[astral oracle]

[fossil nymph]

[twilit sapphire]

[noble acorn]

shiny celebi isnt out at all

[severe phoenix]

I mean, technically you weren’t wrong, Celebi can be pink

[upbeat drum]

I have a feeling I won't be getting shiny celebi, usually those timed researches have crazy requirements

[noble acorn]

in go

[fresh tree]

i keep finding pokemon yet im out of pokeballs '_'

[noble acorn]

its a special research

[astral oracle]

@noble acorn it probably won't be that difficult

[upbeat drum]

oh is it? thought I read it was time limited

[noble acorn]

@fresh tree pokestops are giving out significantly more pokeballs if you need them

[fresh tree]

i don't live near any oof

[severe phoenix]

Wait wut

[noble acorn]

the thing said "special" reasearch

[severe phoenix]

You can keep the missions?

[fossil nymph]

[severe phoenix]

OH YEAH, IM GETTING MY PINK FAIRY

[astral oracle]

@fossil nymph they only released the first wave of Kalos

[fresh tree]

oo you can do that? :o

[astral oracle]

So we'll need to wait

[upbeat drum]

then you get randoms showing up near your house

[noble acorn]

inb4 the requirement for sylv is max friendship eevee

[fossil nymph]

Im gettin that shiny sylveon from the guranteed shiny eevee

[severe phoenix]

I can have my Murder Monkey and The Pink Onion Fairy

[noble acorn]

you can submit stops at 38 now

[twilit sapphire]

yeah, you can nominate a couple pokestop, as long it applies the requirements

oh yeah i forgot 38 can now do wayfarer stuff

[paper reef]

Finally, I asked Seal for a Pogo section and it went through.

[fossil nymph]

Why do the rewards get shittier the higher the level u are?

[severe phoenix]

Sarah!

[paper reef]

Hello

[plain quarry]

how do u get shiny celebi tho

[severe phoenix]

How’re you?

[meager dragon]

goodish timing, I started pogo last month and I'm still ultra noob

[noble acorn]

@fossil nymph they dont really

[meager dragon]

veterans send me your wisdom

[paper reef]

Pretty good. Hbu?

[astral oracle]

It'll be tied to research

[noble acorn]

@plain quarry it will be through a special research

[twilit sapphire]

feel free to ask stuff, don't worry about it

[fossil nymph]

I dont get incenses anymore tho @noble acorn

[plain quarry]

oh makes sense now lol

[fossil nymph]

Or any rare item for that matter

[severe phoenix]

I’m doing good, enjoying my last few days of the wonderful Nitro you gave me

[fossil nymph]

EW YELLOW TEAM

[upbeat drum]

yellow team best team

[fossil nymph]

NO

[twilit sapphire]

imagine still hating team colors

[severe phoenix]

I’m Valor all the way baby

[noble acorn]

get used to doing curveballs, they increase catch chance by a ridiculously good amount.
go for excellents, currently the best way to get exp

[severe phoenix]

Although, I do like Mystic

[night storm]

[gleaming lark]

instinct supreme

[charred rapids]

Why isn't anyone talking about the snorlax kek

[night storm]

Can't talk about PoGo without having a clan war

[fresh tree]

are tauros's rare/good?

[plain quarry]

hey a clan war already done leave it be

[fossil nymph]

[night storm]

Nop, sorry 😦

[fresh tree]

oof

[fossil nymph]

[noble acorn]

[twilit sapphire]

They're regional, they're rare for other people who doesn't have their spawn

[paper reef]

Ah nice. Glad you’ve enjoyed it

[noble acorn]

the only thing that they could have that would count as "rare" is that its a regional

[plain quarry]

how tf are people finding fearow

[twilit sapphire]

it may be not rare for people in the USA, but rare for others

[meager dragon]

yeah I watched a video, though I still don't fully understand how my motion translates to the distance and pathing of the ball tbh, a lot of it is guesswork from me atm. I can excellent a few species but mostly just throw greats or worse lol

[plain quarry]

ive been playing for 3 years and no fricking ferow

[meager dragon]

yeah I haven't seen a single spearow or fearow around here

[paper reef]

I’m Team Mystic

[noble acorn]

dw, you get better as you play more

[plain quarry]

I use mystic cuz articuno looks cool

[gleaming lark]

im jealous!!! my only perfects are a staraptor and a halloween squirtle

[astral oracle]

The single best video you can watch to help you throw better is ProdigyNation's "set circle trick"

[noble acorn]

i got a shiny articuno on the first raid it came out in

[charred rapids]

thats pretty nice already

[astral oracle]

https://youtu.be/4qdjCk-cT08

[noble acorn]

setting circles can take too long if you're consistently driving for exp

[plain quarry]

lol the event celebi in go will come out 3 days after the zarude one is SWSH

[noble acorn]

its better to just start going for it and catching more things at greats/excellents than just wasting 20 seconds or more setting a circle for 1 pokemon while missing 20

[meager dragon]

I've seen a couple of videos on the trick where you hold the ball down then wait til they attack, right? The main difficulty I have is judging how far away stuff is and just generally how to aim the ball and control its path/power, not really about controlling what the circle size is when I launch

[astral oracle]

The tip is for raid bosses specifically. There is no reason to set circle for normal spawns

[noble acorn]

yeah

[astral oracle]

Like you should absolutely set circle for Legendaries

[fossil nymph]

Darn it

[meager dragon]

that worked well

[night storm]

Setting circles is useful for legendaries

[astral oracle]

And yeah, just takes practice

[noble acorn]

_ _

[fossil nymph]

Pokemon go fans sayin they know everything like:

[twilit sapphire]

[meager dragon]

mostly it seems like I just need to lob diagonally off the screen and it'll curve back, except when it just goes off in a straight line sometimes lol, idk yeah I'm still learning hah

[night storm]

The ball have to spin!

[astral oracle]

Your phone type will matter too. If your phone has a higher refresh rate or resolution, you will have to spin more

[plain quarry]

what if i transfer the shiny celebi from go to sword and sheild XD

[noble acorn]

yeah do not through the ball straight when curving

[fossil nymph]

Damn

[noble acorn]

throw it off the center a bit to ensure you actually hit the mon

[meager dragon]

so the spin rate impacts the amount of curve?

[noble acorn]

no

[plain quarry]

idk if i really need celebi lol i mean i have both eclipse and jungle and ultra mons .-.

[astral oracle]

Not exactly. But you need to get the ball spinning a little bit before letting go

Otherwise it won't curve

[thick inlet]

im a boomer

pogo is pokemon go right

[noble acorn]

yes

[wet bay]

yes

I'm so sad I don't have a Mr. Mime in PoGO

[astral oracle]

It's been featured in events

[wet bay]

I only started playing this summer

[meager dragon]

I see the creepy bastards everywhere

[astral oracle]

Typically have to hatch it if you don't live in Europe

[night storm]

It will most likely be featured again

[wet bay]

yeah

I do have a melmetal though which is sweet

[twilit sapphire]

now mime jr, that one is troublesome

[noble acorn]

mime jr is the real hell

[wet bay]

YES!

[fossil nymph]

[noble acorn]

could you just not send random emotes over and over

[twilit sapphire]

can you stop spamming emotes only

[fossil nymph]

Ok

[glacial lily]

gbl is fun

[primal gyro]

About the only thing I have of "value" from pogo is a chonky santa Raichu from 2016 with perfect attack. Too bad I didn't have the clarvoyance to see that 4 years from now I'd be playing Pokemon on switch and it'd be the only way to get a bunch of shiny Mythics

[wet bay]

dude, can you stop

[fossil nymph]

n o

[meager dragon]

I'm sure there's a spam channel somewhere if you want to play with emotes

[fossil nymph]

You thought it was an emote, but it was actually me! Dio!

[honest oriole]

#bot_commands

[twilit sapphire]

pumpkin

[honest oriole]

Or rather, your own personal server

[meager dragon]

atm I've been searching like mad for the kalos starters and the noibat, for mons that they said have a boosted spawn rate for this event I expected to see loads of them, but it seems to just be pure litleo and bunnleby and the occasional absurdly low catch rate for a route 1 bird fletchling :S

[honest oriole]

Hi Aimee

[meager dragon]

are all events this... uh underwhelming?

[astral oracle]

They haven't always been great about boosting rates

The starters are definitely more rare then they should be

[noble acorn]

looks at dragon week

[twilit sapphire]

we don't talk about dragon week

[noble acorn]

i wouldn't say all the starters, froakie is just absurdly low in spawns

[astral oracle]

Ha was that the Axew in eggs week?

[noble acorn]

no

[astral oracle]

At like 0.1%

[meager dragon]

F

[noble acorn]

shiny deino that never hatched

[twilit sapphire]

shiny deino

[astral oracle]

Ahh

[night storm]

shiny what now?

[astral oracle]

Yeah I remember

[fickle sluice]

Heya guys, there’s a mega charizard raid in #784549787156349001 that we really need help with if anyone’s interested!

It says in the rules to not discuss pogo spoofing, but what is pogo spoofing?

[crimson swallow]

Uhhh

[twilit sapphire]

[calm wraith]

Ohhh

[night storm]

Basically, cheating

naughty cheating you shouldn't do

[calm wraith]

Thank u, i hadnt heard of the term before

[odd glade]

Very disappointed that 2019's mons will be locked behind raids and eggs in Dec ComDay. Really wanted a shiny bagon in SwSh

[twilit sapphire]

[lethal siren]

I live in the middle of fucking nowhere

[dusky juniper]

[twilit sapphire]

[lethal siren]

[twilit sapphire]

my zone was empty asf when i started but managed to still get to 40

[lethal siren]

I live in the desert

[crimson swallow]

It 100% depends on how many pokestops are in your area and how dedicated you are

[twilit sapphire]

and then just placed pokestops in my area

[crimson swallow]

True

[lethal siren]

Turns out there isn't a pokestop in my down I'm out

I just got a hundo Fennekin from the wild, but I can’t get a damn Froakie spawn at all. WHY AM I GETTING THE BAD STARTER ONLY

[green bridge]

We have pogo chat

[twilit sapphire]

[meager dragon]

raining and still no sign of the froakies 😦

[solemn salmon]

I had to go out to find a froakie

Just 1

[untold breach]

me but with chespin

[solemn salmon]

Imagine catching a chespin while being stuck with litleo

This spawns hate me

[untold breach]

Oh my god

[solemn salmon]

Good luck on your finds

[untold breach]

thank you

[plain grove]

@lime quartz whats your weather been like? All sunny and clear for me and all Fennekin too

[twilit sapphire]

clear but spawns has been nice so got all 3 starters

[lime quartz]

@plain grove I don't look at the weather, I log in, see if there's anything spawning for my living dex in HOME and close the app
I don't actually play PoGO anymore

[twilit sapphire]

also, Froakie still spawns close to water sources as water mons so it was kinda easier

[solemn salmon]

Aimee cute

[rotund copper]

In the GBL, me and the other trainer both ran out of Pokémon at the same exact time. I lost, though...

[charred rapids]

Congratulations HURB! Your Purugly leveled up to level 20

Heeeey, a Pokémon Go section.

Now we’re talking.

It doesn't as long as you have remote passes

[crude nacelle]

If a match ends with both players losing their last Pokémon at the same time, it ends in a loss for both players.

[faint ferry]

thats a keeper

[crude nacelle]

deleted as i decided not to dox my location

[faint ferry]

lel

[crude nacelle]

re-upload
look at what i got today lmfao

[jaunty mica]

i got all three starters but mostly the fox

[faint ferry]

i havent even encountered a fletchling yet

[jaunty mica]

i seen them but i have too many fire types

[crude nacelle]

I've seen 2 Froakie, but several more Fennekin and Chespin.
Only new Pokémon I haven't seen yet is Noibat.

[jaunty mica]

i haven't got a shiny in a while

[faint ferry]

got 11 shiny nidorans during that event...

[jaunty mica]

11? i got non

[crude nacelle]

I got a stupid Growlithe off the Gotcha last week lmao

[faint ferry]

RIP

[jaunty mica]

but i see pogo instagram accounts get like 4 shinys in one run

[haughty saddle]

I have so many Machop to reroll...

[faint ferry]

reroll?

[haughty saddle]

When you trade a Pokemon with someone the IVs are randomized

The higher level your friendship, the better the IVs. Best friends get minimum 10/10/10

Lucky friends get minimum 12/12/12

[rotund copper]

Ah I see, thanks Krabs

[crisp relic]

HURB has given 1 'General Rep' to ArmorAbsKrabs.

[haughty saddle]

So I caught a fuck shit ass butt ton of Machop and Ralts from the Lake Trio event, hoping to find local people to swap them with to get good PVP IVs

[faint ferry]

i wish rural PoGo got more love...

[tidal violet]

honestly yeah I have 0 pokestops near me

[faint ferry]

like, why arent rural areas just all spawning grounds or w/e

[tidal violet]

[haughty saddle]

I'm lucky to live in a city, for sure.

[charred rapids]

Did someone just say best friend trades are minimum 10/10/10

[haughty saddle]

Yeah, that's why I trade with new friends. Great League and Ultra Leave generally want 0/1 atk iv and high Def and HP

[charred rapids]

Then no that’s wrong, it’s all randomised lol

The only one that guarantees a set of IV’s or higher is lucky friends as you said 12/12/12

I’ve been best friends with my alt and have done 28,000 trades, I can tell you majority have been lower than 10/10/10

[faint ferry]

28k

[fresh tree]

o.o

[charred rapids]

Sorry 29k had to recheck

[faint ferry]

cheesus

[haughty saddle]

Apologies, minimum for BFs is 5/5/5

12 for lucky

[fresh tree]

hbjifokd vovrnjfigngninijuijuiiijiji

[haughty saddle]

Still, you want 0/1 atk for most GL/UL Pokemon, so it's better to trade with non-bffs

[red cove]

I just downloaded Pokémon go, I haven’t played since the first month or so after the release. I live in a relatively small town, is it worth playing?

[faint ferry]

depends what you want from it i guess?

[tidal violet]

I think so purely for the fact you can get melmetal/free shinies in community day

[faint ferry]

also yeah, its relatively easy to farm meltans

[tidal violet]

also the new shiny celebi event

[red cove]

I guess I don’t really know what I want from it. It was pretty bare boned the last time I played. I know they’ve added more but idk what it is or if I can even access it in my town. Thanks for all the help

[faint ferry]

ive gotten more shinies from PoGo than i have in my entire history of playing mainline pokemon games and i live rural

and ofc now you can send things to home if thats what youre after

[red cove]

So the shinies I get in go I can transfer into sword and shield?

[faint ferry]

if theyre pokemon available in swsh

[tidal violet]

yes, as long as they are in swsh

[faint ferry]

and probably whatever future pokemon games

[crude nacelle]

I'd trade with you 😘

[faint ferry]

the only IV thats not knowable on PoGo transfers to home/swsh before sending them is speed i think since theres no speed stat in PoGo

[severe phoenix]

I have no clue as to why, but @paper reef , you always give me the best stuff in gifts

I’ve got at least 4 Max Potions from you

[fresh tree]

are we able to trade with people from any distance

[twilit sapphire]

no, distance it's locked for like 100mts or something like that

we had just an event were the distance was maxed to 10km or something, but already passed

[charred rapids]

Was maxed to 40km, was 12km first wave.

[fresh tree]

o h ooof

[paper reef]

Glad you got some good items. I seem to get a LOT of max potions from everyone. I was at 72 earlier today but I used a few taking down gyms for Team Mystic.

[severe phoenix]

72??? Woah! I have 10

[twilit sapphire]

i just want to spend my items

[paper reef]

Oh and I came in here to share two of my mons. Biscuit & 420 CP. Biscuit is my first Lucky Pokémon and I’m collecting as many Poochyenas as I can to get a Mightyena because I love it and I managed to catch one with 420. I actually thought mons with CP of 420 & 666 weren’t possible for obvious reasons but guess it is.

Well I gtg, I need to finish some stuff up tonight before I go to my family Christmas lunch tomorrow. My family, depending on the side will shift around all of December & November for holiday lunches and dinners. This is from my grandmas side so I’m going to be there with like 2 of my aunts, 2 great aunts, and one of my cousins.

And it’s at a Bee Farm so I’m going to be surrounded by like 4 billion bees lol

Many of these hopefully to catch lol

That’d be pretty funny if I found a Beedrill, Combee, or Vespiqueen there

[fresh tree]

chat ded

[charred rapids]

Well I’m making progress on getting Victini. Just need to get one more candy with my buddy and then I can start the next level of the research where I catch it

[untold breach]

I mean, most of the world is asleep rn, it's gonna be dead for a bit

[fresh tree]

oof

[charred rapids]

I wish I was

[steel parcel]

@paper reef twins!

[analog steeple]

Cries in PST time zone

[stark narwhal]

Trying to catch Chimchar for this victini research task makes me retroactively regret any gen 4 playthroughs where I chose it lol

It's almost the only fire type spawning around me today, save for a random charmeleon and a few fennekins

I did manage to snag three new dex entries today, Durant, Joltik and a sneaky Froakie!

[analog steeple]

I’m trying to find a froakie and no luck!!!

Also, since this is general

[stark narwhal]

I recognize how lucky I was lol

[analog steeple]

If y’all ever need someone for marowak or raichu raids pls ping me! I’m trying to shiny hunt both

[stark narwhal]

I had read all the lamenting in the PoGo subreddit and was worried I'd never find it. Idk if the rain all day actually assisted or not but I found one. Do water types actually spawn more near water or is that a myth?

[analog steeple]

I live near a body of water and cannot confirm

[stark narwhal]

I mean Froakie showed up in a grocery store parking lot so idk really

He’s now mocking me from my bed

Not about to roam the streets of my neighborhood this late looking for a virtual frog

[analog steeple]

Chris I’m hooked on this play by play lol

[ripe swan]

Are Kalos starters shiny locked in Pogo?

[charred rapids]

Exhilarating friends, absolutely exhilarating.

You must be new, the answer is most definitely yes

[analog steeple]

Ayyy mental Jesus

Were you here when we were at the lowest possible corner of this server ?

[charred rapids]

Probably not

[analog steeple]

Probably not

We were like the last channel in the server 😂

[jaunty mica]

nope just saw someone get a shiny froakie

[idle moth]

They're not out yet shiny...

[jaunty mica]

i was lied to

[charred rapids]

tryin correct me

They’ll be a community day just like every other starter

[twilit sapphire]

unova and kalos starters are shiny locked until their respective community days, most likely

[charred rapids]

Must be in a cave, lot of echos

The drunk uncle that hasn’t bathed in days has made it to pogo

[surreal parrot]

Oh nice more pogo channels

too many shinies and hundos

[west marsh]

After this level I’ll be stuck on a stand by. Wont have enough experience 🥲 level 45 foreverrr

[crude nacelle]

50 Rocket Leaders is a lot, whether you're paying for Radars or battling Grunts.

[charred rapids]

Yeah the xp won’t be the only thing you’ll be stuck on

[feral nova]

i think i need to farm this marrowak raid

[charred rapids]

My area is fairly big but considerably small compared to cities so, it will probably take me awhile and a lot of aloe Vera

[feral nova]

i thought mewtwo was going to be worth something for PVP, its ranked so damn low!

chesepin if farmable right now right?

[charred rapids]

Shadow mewtwo regardless of IV is fun to max out but no, pvp is terrible lol.

[crude nacelle]

Melmetal is kinda nice for ML.

[feral nova]

ive only be doing GL

[crude nacelle]

Melmetal is also nice for GL.

[feral nova]

interesting

[charred rapids]

Chestnaught I’ve heard is great for great league.

[feral nova]

yes ^

i need to get it though, have not gotten even 1

[charred rapids]

Energy ball and superpower.

[feral nova]

when does this end? does he come to lure?

sry i mean incense

[crude nacelle]

I hate the idea of evolving before CD and missing out on Frenzy Plant.
But it does look nice.

yes, Chespin can spawn on Incense.

[charred rapids]

Yeah but you have a set of starters and probably a whole bunch of random com days before chespin gets it.

[paper reef]

Awesome, we have Twin Braixens

[charred rapids]

And elite charge tm’s are handy for that

[crude nacelle]

I hate the FOMO in this game

[paper reef]

I have a question about the tms you can earn

[crude nacelle]

I don't want to talk about what already needs ETMs

[crude nacelle]

sure

[paper reef]

I’ve been wondering about this quite a bit, but is it preferred to use candies to learn a new move rather then use a TM? I’ve been wondering if learning by candies can teach it an exclusive move that TM’s can’t do.

[crude nacelle]

And the Seaking needs TWO Elite Charge TMs.

[charred rapids]

I’ve stopped buying elite fast tm’s they aren’t worth nothing to me at the moment, I have a couple tyranitar with smack down and dewgong with ice shard

That’s basically all you really use them for

Seaking is kinda meh though

[crude nacelle]

regular TMs (not Elite TMs) will only learn moves that are currently in the Pokémon's movepool. Giving a Pokémon a second move pulls from that same movepool.

[paper reef]

What’s the difference between Elite and regular then?

[twilit sapphire]

Elite are used for moves that were tied to events and stuff

[paper reef]

Ah okay

[twilit sapphire]

moves that you can't get anymore

[crude nacelle]

Elite lets you choose the move, they're limited in quantity (you can't get them from raids), and they can get legacy moves.

[charred rapids]

Can’t use them to tm away frustration still lol

[paper reef]

I think I had one some time back

I’ma double check if I still have one

[charred rapids]

So they still have some limitations

[crude nacelle]

It's so stupid that Blaziken can get Stone Edge from ETM lmao

[uncut trail]

i havent played pvp in months

[feral nova]

sarah, the candies give you 2 charge moves

in pvp this is great because it gives you additional coverage

example hypno can have thunder punch and fire punch, or shadow ball, etc

[paper reef]

Except for Go Day Mewtwo. I know it can keep frustration boost and get rid of the locked move

So wait, I thought only super rare event pokemon can have 3 moves.

Any pokemon can have 3 at a time?

[crude nacelle]

Honestly, it can be nice in PVE too. Like, adding a second move to Shadow Punch Gengar. You can make it Shadow Punch/Shadow Ball, use Shadow Ball most of the time, but use Shadow Punch when you're about to faint to not lose as much energy.

[feral nova]

yes

[uncut trail]

there was a period where you could tm the frustration away

[crude nacelle]

But those cases are suuuuuuuper limited.

[feral nova]

thats what the candy does, 1 fast 2 charge

by default all pokemon should have 1 fast, 1 charge

[uncut trail]

not sure if giving my shadow mewtwo psystrike was a good thing to do tho

[paper reef]

How do you know what move you’re picking mid battle? Is it random?

[feral nova]

no

[crude nacelle]

I think so.

[feral nova]

you get 2 buttons

[paper reef]

Oh, so it’s bot just the single one on the bottom charging up anymore then?

[charred rapids]

Psystrike is one of its best so I dunno what ya aiming for

[feral nova]

they need to remove this slow stuff on general channels -_-.....

[paper reef]

That’s actually really interesting

[feral nova]

they both charge, and then you can use whichever you want

a lot of people use cheaper weaker hits to bait shields

and then pop the heavy hitter after the person things it wont hurt them and get slammed

whiscash for example, mudbomb and blizzard

[uncut trail]

charge your moves before switching

[feral nova]

i got spanked before because i thought they only have mud bomb.. second hit slammed me with a blizzard and i lost the match 😦

[charred rapids]

However people are smart and count your fast moves, ya have to trick em and hope they don’t shield correctly, it can be complicated

[paper reef]

Interesting, so basically save your heavier moves until your ready?

[charred rapids]

I overcharge so they eventually lose count.

[feral nova]

i mean theres a ton of strategy that can go into this

charge advantages, switch advantages, etc etc

[paper reef]

I didn’t know there was so much strategy in the game

This is all news to me

[uncut trail]

now all you need is to win a certain number of matches to go up in rank right?

i have 0 idea after i stopped pvp long ago

[feral nova]

i think so gloria

at least for season 5, im not 100% if its the same in season 6?

[crude nacelle]

It's similar in season 6, up until rank 21 i think

[feral nova]

sarah, for PVP also the IV's maxed are not ideal

people build bulky because you can tank a lot more damage, making you more effective overall

[charred rapids]

You get used to it, eventually ya start counting the fast moves yourself and know what’s coming, can either tell what the move is or switch on it, Azumarill still gets to ice beam in 5 bubbles, play rough I think is 6 and hydro pump 7 skarmory is also 5 air slashes for sky attack.

[solar mason]

yo hold up

we finally got more rooms

[feral nova]

and attack bumps up CP faster then hp and def from what i undersatnd. So you have combos like 0 13 15 as ideal. Metal recommended poke genie and its freaking awesome

[solar mason]

we owe this all to the lake trio

[feral nova]

slut (haha), yes we did

[crude nacelle]

I can't wait to max out my perfect Umbreon for Ultra League 🙃

[paper reef]

Why did you say Slut mid sentence?

Ah it’s sports name, nvm

I thought you were calling somebody one

[feral nova]

Lol, yes, his name cracked me up sry

[charred rapids]

Yeah a lot of Pokémon require terrible attack stats, only a few exceptions of course require high it maxed.

[paper reef]

I mean I call metal, Jesus lol

[feral nova]

krabs any idea what the difference is between XL and non XL for pvp?

[crude nacelle]

for Umbreon in Ultra League?

[feral nova]

i have a 90+ umbreaon, love it

[crude nacelle]

or just in general?

[charred rapids]

Pokémon powered up over 40 bro

[feral nova]

in general i guess, i just never understood what the deal with that is

[crude nacelle]

yeah, what Metal said

[charred rapids]

XL is the candy used to power them up.

[solar mason]

idk how i feel about the way raids were set up

[feral nova]

no

[solar mason]

should make it where people dm you first to get your code

[feral nova]

for pokemon ranks it literally has different stats for Azumaril and Azumaril (XL)

XL ranks higher

[charred rapids]

Things in great league are now decent in ultra, umbreon and defence form deoxys are some examples

[crude nacelle]

this is why i'll never host one here.

[feral nova]

i thought it was tied to their actual random generated size

[charred rapids]

No lol their weight or height are in no way effected

[solar mason]

yeah i like that we got new rooms but that method isnt great

[feral nova]

so wth is that XL for im still confused

let me get an example

[solar mason]

i think pogo is too flexible for adding for raids and shouldnt be locked

[charred rapids]

Just XL are those Pokémon above level 40 so since they are higher levels they’d require different stats

[crude nacelle]

Nope. On pvpoke, Pokémon with XL in the name are the variants that are powered up beyond Level 40. There were several Pokémon that can benefit from this like Azumaril, Sableye, and Medicham in GL. G-Stunfisk and Umbreon in UL, and Melmetal in ML.

Melmetal for Master League, because that's the most farmable Pokémon as far as XL Candy goes lmao

[charred rapids]

Medicham is a perfect example honestly

[feral nova]

i now understand, thats bizzare

[crude nacelle]

Ultra League is dominated by them lmfao

[charred rapids]

There’s also new Pokémon to use in great league because of this over 40 buff

[feral nova]

so basically the stats for azumaril and azumaril xl is different, requiring the XL to go over 40 in order to cap out at 1500

[solar mason]

yo can everyone name their machamp machamps.com

[charred rapids]

A grimer could be used

[solar mason]

i want to fill pogo with them too

[charred rapids]

Is that Ultra? Bruh I didn’t think it was that bad

[crude nacelle]

yeah that's UL 😂

[feral nova]

wait wth is this slut, im interested

[charred rapids]

Damn they overtook hahah incredible

[crude nacelle]

Melmetal is #1 in ML too

[feral nova]

machamps gym

[crude nacelle]

Jesus Swampert SHOT UP in ML with XL

[feral nova]

im confused

[charred rapids]

Mmmm and getting XL for melmetal wouldn’t be crazy difficult to get, just have to farm the box every 3 days

[crude nacelle]

Yeah!

[feral nova]

^ i mean this is indication that it wont be #1 soon

[charred rapids]

Every couple of catches ya get 1-3 so I may have to start.

[feral nova]

its going to be a meta shift quick since everyone will counter it

[crude nacelle]

I've already got 60 Meltan Candy XL, it's not too difficult

about 40 of that was transferring 3 boxes' worth after the update went live tbh

[uncut trail]

if you open the box every 3 day you will get even more

[solar mason]

machamps.com is a like a meme of all the hacked pokemon that get wondertraded in swsh

[uncut trail]

though im too lazy to tbh

[charred rapids]

I’m also lazy it took me way too long to get to 44 and now I’ll be stuck on the rockets forever

[feral nova]

lol

[charred rapids]

Got the xp but I don’t wanna hunt grunts

[solar mason]

i wish pogo added some new balls

[crude nacelle]

It's a good idea to farm XL Candy for Meltan, Mudkip, Magikarp, Dratini, Swinub, Beldum, and Rhyhorn.

[solar mason]

wait what

[charred rapids]

Great majority of those have com day this month

[gilded rune]

ye

[solar mason]

jeez i stopped looking at pogo for like 4 days

[feral nova]

jesus they sell pokemon? lol

[solar mason]

what is the xl candies

[feral nova]

so what they spoof to get close enough and trade?

[solar mason]

nah they just send out fake shiny pokemon

[crude nacelle]

Candy to power a Pokémon above Level 40.

[feral nova]

fake shiny?

[solar mason]

and they are all called machamps.coms, so a bunch of newer players use them

yeah

[feral nova]

they totally sell shit lol

[crude nacelle]

Hey please don't post that

[solar mason]

yeah lol

[feral nova]

ehH, my bad

[gilded rune]

Idk how I have two shiny onix heehee

[feral nova]

trying to even understand wtf is going on lol

[solar mason]

do you play swsh?

i feel like if you did youd know the whole meme of machamps.com

[feral nova]

i do play, BUT i dont play enough to knmow about that

i just picked up the game and switch like couple weeks back, played through the pve and hopped back on pokemon g

[charred rapids]

Onix has a considerably lower shiny rate than normal, scyther, sneasel and a couple of others are also included

[solar mason]

i just always name my shinies machamps.com

in pogo

[uncut trail]

once i went to a sneasel nest to farm, big mistake

a shit ton of shiny sneasels

[feral nova]

i do know about the max_raid_shiny, no idea how they spawn them like that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[charred rapids]

Shiny Onix is now a nuisance to me now skarmory too

[feral nova]

i want a shiny skarmory -_-

[uncut trail]

any gigaboosted species is annoying tbh

same for scyther

[feral nova]

are we talking pogo or swsh?

[uncut trail]

pogo

[feral nova]

wtf is a gigaboosted species?

[uncut trail]

although i was glad i could snag a shiny misdreavus off a nest before nests changed

[solar mason]

nice green boys

[feral nova]

jeeez wth metal lol

[charred rapids]

Bruh take one, just one account and I traded a couple

Bruh

[solar mason]

jeez

[uncut trail]

wrong channel

[charred rapids]

Wrong chat lol

[uncut trail]

................

[solar mason]

can we go back to the times when this room was empty lol

[feral nova]

LOL

[crude nacelle]

what the fuck is a hidden ability i play fruit ninja

[charred rapids]

NO

[uncut trail]

https://tenor.com/view/pidgeotto-throw-pokeballs-pokemon-go-fail-gif-11306653

i remembered this good ol meme

[feral nova]

rofl pogo is a fruit ninja variant at times

[charred rapids]

Giga boosted as I previously mentioned is when certain Pokémon have a lower shiny rate.

[solar mason]

does anyone have a iphone 11

[uncut trail]

the pidgeys were trolls back in the day

[charred rapids]

I have an iPhone 11 >_>

[solar mason]

i just got it after using my 7 and it feels so different

[crude nacelle]

for anyone that has an iphone 12 pro, does the phone overheat like a mf?

[solar mason]

nah im not rich

[crude nacelle]

iphone x user asking lmao

[charred rapids]

I feel that Boston

[solar mason]

but pogo always burns up phones

[feral nova]

my pixel is generally fine?

[surreal parrot]

This channel is moving too fast now

[solar mason]

yeah ive noticed i cant catch a good amount of pokemon with one hand now

[charred rapids]

Gotta go fast boi

[crude nacelle]

my 7 plus would always overheat, and my X overheats now.

[surreal parrot]

Don't really notice my iPhone X overheating?

[solar mason]

my 11 doesnt overheat but pogo is the only thing that gets it warm

[crude nacelle]

I guess it's mostly when I charge while playing.

[charred rapids]

I guess it just depends how much you leave the app running for

[feral nova]

charging and using any phone will burn it up

[solar mason]

yeah i leave it on for my entire walks

[surreal parrot]

I think charging and doing things will do that

[feral nova]

its not good for the phone

or your battery

[crude nacelle]

[feral nova]

i mean you'll be ¯_(ツ)_/¯

but you'll need a new phone soon, silicone degredation is a thing

battery keeping charge is also a thing

[solar mason]

i feel like iphones last about 4 to almost 5 years

[crude nacelle]

I didn't ask for a lecture, thanks. 🙂

[charred rapids]

[feral nova]

lol

your very welcome!

im just very bothered by charging and using phones. I did it for a while until i realized wth was happening.

They could prevent the damn thing by adding features to slow charge or something if they cared

[solar mason]

im loving the tags

makes organizing so much easier

need to add tags for friends

[crude nacelle]

Having a tag for Pokémon to power up is 👌

[analog steeple]

Tags for friends would be so nice

[solar mason]

nicknames are ok, but they need one more option

[crude nacelle]

✨ G I F T A B L E ✨

[solar mason]

also i hate we get a shiny locked kyurem for an entire month

[crude nacelle]

Think of it this way. You raid to get Candy for Kyurem-Black and Kyurem-White later on.

I actually have a decent IV Chespin for GL. I might try Chesnaught when I'm able to get the candy for it.

nvm i've got the Rare Candy. I'm doing it now.

[feral nova]

i dont even have a damn chespin

😦

[crude nacelle]

https://streamable.com/xe80z9
Chesnaught is kinda insane.

[severe phoenix]

Go to bed ya heathens

[untold breach]

no it's only 7pm

[charred rapids]

Congratulations Polyn0mial! Your Jirachi leveled up to level 85

[untold breach]

shut up pokemize

[faint ferry]

9:14pm*

[severe phoenix]

It’s 2:15 in Illinois

[feral nova]

324 east coast :)

And chesnaught is really good

[charred rapids]

Just change that energy ball to the frenzy plant when it gets it, you’ll have yourself a monster

[cerulean elm]

True, that’ll be a while though. When are unova starters getting their comm days?

I’d have thought start of 2021

[charred rapids]

Hoping for start of 2021, I’d like the regular community days to come back, would be nice. This year was kinda doody.

[cerulean elm]

Yeah, comm days were too long and too many shinies, and no 2018 exclusive moves for December comm day aswell!

[charred rapids]

Thaaaank you, ya get it, 6 hours for that rate, no one wants 30 gastly or seedot and now we get to see them again this month?

Give us back new shiny Pokémon for 3 hours.

[crude nacelle]

I'm okay with 6 hours. Gives me an excuse to sleep in on Community Day lmao

Honestly Unova starter Community Days are going to be booty cheeks until Oshawott.
IIRC Samurott with Hydro Cannon is a monster.

actually it looks pretty comparable to Swampert. A little more glassy.

Primarina is going to be the real monster. Comparable bulk, more Attack.

[charred rapids]

But at least we get new shiny Pokémon, more incentive than gastly

Not everyone be looking on the pvp or use side of things.

[crude nacelle]

yeah and that's why remote raids are so damn close nowadays 👀

[paper reef]

Woah wait, I just read up in chat and people actually already know how to hack shinies in PoGo? That’s crazy. You’d think it’d be 100x harder then on the switch at least or something.

I don’t understand how they’re getting into such a secure mobile game.

[charred rapids]

You can’t hack shiny Pokémon.... you can spoof for them

[muted gyro]

I need to trade

with people but nobody lives in my state

[paper reef]

Ahh that makes more sense

[muted gyro]

i need to evolve my machoke and kadabra

[paper reef]

I evolved my Machoke and named it MachoMan. It’s original name was RandySavage. But MachoMan just fit better and I still know who I’m naming after either way.

[charred rapids]

I mean they still can’t technically spoof to find it exactly lol but people run maps which find you all the perfect IV Pokémon, spoofers just take advantage of that and shiny hunt them or they hunt nests of that certain type. We had a group here do that but they were the most hated players of the community because they did it.

[muted gyro]

man

I need some better mons too

[severe phoenix]

Heathennsssss

[charred rapids]

Congratulations HailTheKing! Your Machamp leveled up to level 80

[severe phoenix]

I said rest

[charred rapids]

No

It’s 7:15pm. I’ll go to bed when I want to Mum

[muted gyro]

lol

if only someone here lived in my state, then I could touch trade

[charred rapids]

It’s more like a mirror trade since they can’t be traded back

[muted gyro]

wait why?

[charred rapids]

Just how it is in PoGo, it stops you from continuously re rolling IV’s, so once ya trade it you ain’t getting it back, you’d have to get the other player to trade the same.

[muted gyro]

I just need to evolve my mons and I want to save candy so I just wanted to trade lol. So trading rerolls the ivs?

[charred rapids]

It does indeed.

[main plover]

Ayo what’s the convo about?

[muted gyro]

interesting

[charred rapids]

He wanted to trade to evolve Pokémon, but wasn’t aware they couldn’t be traded back.

[main plover]

I see

[muted gyro]

so obtaining the 100 candy is the only proper way

[main plover]

Also am I the only one who’s really pissed that the 2019 com day mons are only going to be in eggs and raids?

I have about 2 Pokemon I need from 2020 and about 5 from 2019

[charred rapids]

If you don’t want it to effect your IV’s then yes

[muted gyro]

idek about my pokemon ivs

[charred rapids]

Bleh I’m more angry that 2018 was scrapped altogether

[muted gyro]

I just downloaded go again after like a week or so ago just for the azelf, uxie, mesprit raids

[charred rapids]

Would prefer better IV beldum’s and stuff

[main plover]

I agree but I see why they did it

[muted gyro]

but now i gotta keep it installed for the shiny celebi event

[charred rapids]

Well one reason is charmander would end up with two moves, they couldn’t do that.

[main plover]

It’s just really annoying that the 2019 mons won’t be spawning in the wild

I’m not willing to spend god knows how much money just for the chance to get one of the shinies I need

[charred rapids]

I’ll be doing it but every single shiny obtained goes to home lol

I say I’m doing it because it’s 2x dust so

[muted gyro]

so you're saying someone for example has to trade a kadabra with me to evolve my kadabra correct?

[charred rapids]

For the both of you to evolve it for no cost

[main plover]

I still need a Salamence with outrage, a good mamowsine, a better gardevoir, a good swampert, and something else

[muted gyro]

hmm ok

[charred rapids]

You probably should wait if you want to evolve a kadabra

[muted gyro]

I need a good level 1500 mon or lower, preferably within 1300-1480 range

[charred rapids]

Abra is unfortunately one of the few Pokémon spawning for community day

So candy should be relatively easy.

[muted gyro]

can't believe I wasted a remote raid pass on a charizard x higher leveled than me

and I did it solo only to not do a dent to it

[valid sentinel]

when you enter a raid there is a suggested player group written somewhere

[main plover]

Hopes for 2021 com days? If everything else is garbage I just hope that we get a gible com day

[charred rapids]

Hopefully they start back to how they used to be, starters and then some spicy new shines

[main plover]

I don’t really want starters

[valid sentinel]

while Niantic is miles off with the numbers it is still an indication that you need more than 1 player for a mega Charizard XD

[charred rapids]

Starters are a guaranteed though

[main plover]

True

[charred rapids]

And at least they’ll be new

[main plover]

Just please god not another charmander com day

[charred rapids]

Shiny emboar looks sick so I ain’t mad

No I mean the starters that aren’t shiny yet lol

[main plover]

Ye

[valid sentinel]

i have yet to evolve the gen 4 startes, waiting for com days... 😆

[charred rapids]

Gen 4 starters? They’ve been and gone O.o

[valid sentinel]

or maybe 5?

yes 5, sorry

[charred rapids]

5 yes, snivy, tepig and oshiboo

Cute little oshi

[valid sentinel]

Yeah, forgot a gen XD

[main plover]

Have we had the gen 2 starters?

[charred rapids]

Gen 2 starters except for totodile were 2018

[main plover]

A

[main plover]

So uh

[stark sluice]

dang, where was this channel a week ago when i wanted to get azelf?

i live in the US and i got 2 uxies and no azelf

[twilit sapphire]

there was already a raid channel tho

[main plover]

Why not just invite other ppl to azelf raids near you

[paper reef]

I requested it directly to seal and lots of people also wanted it so it went through

[twilit sapphire]

imagine taking all credit

[paper reef]

I asked for a bot too but he said it’d cause too much lag

[twilit sapphire]

like not raid but a single pogo one

[charred rapids]

Third time is a bit redundant

[paper reef]

The two PoGo chats were only PoGo Raids & #other_pokemon_games chat

But now we have a whole nice and clean category

[paper reef]

So I have a few outfits in PoGo I’m thinking about making. If anyone wants to, let me know what looks cutest. Currently I have this on. But I have a few shirts I like I might go with.

[shell kernel]

haha raboot goes brrrrrrrr

[paper reef]

I’m also really debating on which of my masks I should wear.

What matches the outfit better do you think?

[paper reef]

Raboot does indeed go very fast.

[shell kernel]

What region does Pokémon go take place in?

[paper reef]

None, I don’t think it has any lore to it tbh

[cold saffron]

the real world, but it's counted towards Gen 7 iirc

[paper reef]

But if it has all the pokemon irl then would be the whole world and if you’re counting regions like UNOVA being the USA then all the regions are in the game.

[charred rapids]

the one with latios or mew very cute

[paper reef]

The Latios one is really cute and I’ll probably swap my outfits up every so often. But what do you think of the flannel shirt ones at the top?

[shell kernel]

Nickname for the region pokèmon go takes place in: everigon

[paper reef]

Nice

[charred rapids]

If i were to pick between the flannels, i would go with the lime green one

[paper reef]

I like that one because it looks close to Leaf from LG/FR

Thanks for helping. I think I have an idea of what I want to use now

[shell kernel]

picture of everigon (in my opinion)(this was the first thing i found on google) :

[charred rapids]

no problem sarah !

[woeful sorrel]

yo i have a raid if anyone is interested, i put it in the general pogo channel

[ashen aspen]

Hai

[surreal violet]

Just found this

[sleek quarry]

Anyone else having trouble finding a froakie? I can't seem to find one 😭

[surreal violet]

Yh ppl have been having trouble

Rng luck

[sturdy kraken]

Cool, a pogo section!

[karmic raven]

Should I evolve this or wait for a better one?

[quasi mica]

That is a pretty good one not unless you want a Perfect one I would evolve that one won’t be much of a difference

@karmic raven

[shrewd cairn]

So I have a spare pigging and no idea what it’s for. Help?

Poffin*

[karmic raven]

Thanks Donnie appreciate it

[quasi mica]

Puffins are used for a treat for a Pokémon that will max out there treat bar and treat hearts but it will also dibble the hearts you can get in the time it is working. Once you use it you cant add more time on it unless you use another one but what I do is us it and then do your trainer battle with that Pokémon aka your buddy you have set and do the play and tack a pic all that will be left is the walking distance. That is the best way to get max hearts for your buddy in a day @shrewd cairn

[shrewd cairn]

Are there any xp from it. I’m about 200k from lvl 38 and I’m mostly just concerned with xp

[quasi mica]

Before and after puffin
