Niantic's pretty cool. Wants people to walk and meet up during pandemic crazy.

They're messing alot up.

Probably trying to fix it, along with so many other things.

Just give it time.

They're making money, they'll worry about the issues later

[severe phoenix]

I wonder if Hoopa will come back for the PoGo events

And Diancie would be probably there too due to the heavy plays on Mega Evo’s

[odd glade]

We still have to get all of these first

[charred rapids]

There's alot missing.

I want Cosmog so baaaadddd

[severe phoenix]

I think they’re leaving out some on purpose for some future events

[charred rapids]

Everything will be released eventually.

[odd glade]

inb4 Kecleon will be in 8$ event

[severe phoenix]

I do know now that I can finally make some money in February I will be buying every Research event from Kanto on

I’m really thinking about the Kanto Ticket

[charred rapids]

Niantic conformed a while ago, all legendaries will be made available. Eventually lol

[severe phoenix]

What bout Mythicals?

[charred rapids]

I did, childhood memories.

[severe phoenix]

I still need Darkrai, dreamstealing bastard disappeared the day I got back into the game

[charred rapids]

Same here, saaaame here.

And giratina. I kick myself everytime because I missed that one.

[odd glade]

You guys will probably have to wait until next Halloween

[severe phoenix]

Living Dex is hard, but it turns out 9 year old me had a decent brain on him

[odd glade]

Maybe he will get a special research , who knows

[charred rapids]

I'm so ok with that, ghost bbs are my soul ❤️

[severe phoenix]

I have a Shaymin and a Deoxys sitting in OR because I didn’t wanna trade them cuz they looked cool

[charred rapids]

Deoxys looks so so cool

[severe phoenix]

My big brain saved me at least one Pokémon that was gonna be a pain in my ass

I had a huuuge thing for Hedgehogs and I got Shaymin and fucking fliiippped

It was on my team for years

[charred rapids]

Oh my gods like, when I got shuckle. I lost my mind.

Simple lil babe but I love them, I have a tattoo of one lol

[severe phoenix]

I remember screaming and jumping up and down cuz I got a hedgehog Pokémon and my mom thought I stubbed my toe or fell off my bed or some shit

[charred rapids]

I completely know this feeling.

[severe phoenix]

I don’t have the same reactions anymore, but oh man when I get something cool do I still feel like a child

[charred rapids]

When Misdreavus was released, there was one in my backyard and I caught it, called my mom and cried into the phone. She thought my husband died lol

[severe phoenix]

Lol

I got shiny Grookey via egg hatching a couple of months ago and a Shiny Pikachu in Sword within 2 days of each other

[charred rapids]

It was finding the pokemon I attached to for so long to evolve it into the pokemon I bonded my soul with via the pokewalker thing from SoulSilver

[severe phoenix]

I was sooo excited

Now I realize it’s killed my shiny luck

[charred rapids]

Worthy of excitement though!

[severe phoenix]

Definitely!

[charred rapids]

Well shit.

[severe phoenix]

I have 3 shiny G-Max Pokémon now

[charred rapids]

On Shield, I moved my Diancie and two Zygardes over jus tto see them camp together hahaha

[severe phoenix]

Working on the whole collection but that might take awhile considering my ever growing homework mountain and my lack of free time/attention span as of late

[charred rapids]

All the dude hears from the bedrrom is me going, aww look at that big boob being cute lol

[severe phoenix]

I still haven’t caught a single legendary for Sw/Sh in the CT

[charred rapids]

What I did was move a bunchabunch of pokemon over from way older games to home to shield.

[severe phoenix]

My goal is all shiny and now I realize what I’ve done

[charred rapids]

While they still worked, I mean.

[severe phoenix]

I can always use Shield for non shinies tho (at least the ones I don’t need)

[charred rapids]

Oh noooooo how dare the game cheat you of such wonderful things.

[severe phoenix]

Right now I’m stuck on Pebbles The Rocky Bastard (Regirock)

I’m somewhere around 500 encounters

[charred rapids]

Aww, Pebbles. I love it.

Kick its ass!

[severe phoenix]

That’s the goal

[charred rapids]

Look at it and go, you're mine today ok?

[severe phoenix]

At this point, I’ve probably beat the shit out of it so many times it’s more like Dust the Bastard

It’s funny, when you use the Legend Pup moves and Eternatus signature moves, all you see is it’s emotionless face kinda go “well fuck” for .5 seconds and then explode

[charred rapids]

On SS, the red Gyrados.. I would smack it down and keep it down but it was either kill it and lose it or damage and catch it.

took four days.

I kept killing it, and would just complain and biiiitch and I named it Jammy from fable 3

The thing wouldn't die then it did lol

[severe phoenix]

Lol

[charred rapids]

Well, I'm gonna get my day going. Thanks for the fun chat, and everyone be safe and happy raiding!

[severe phoenix]

Question

You too!

Anybody know what Pokémon can be Ditto?

[charred rapids]

Yeah, what's up?

Mine came as a Psyduck. lol

[severe phoenix]

Lolll, I need one to move on with my Mew breakthrough

[charred rapids]

Mew omg yesss stuck at the magikarp bit 😭

See you all later!

[stark narwhal]

Hoothoot is a Ditto right now. I've seen multiple people in server say this.

[severe phoenix]

Ooh ok

[cold saffron]

ohh, I'm stuck there too

[severe phoenix]

I’m 100 or so candies off

I’ll probably just battle league my way there

[timid edge]

hey guys, i dont actually play pokemon go that much, but want to get the shiny celebi. i am stuck where i have to evolve 3 grass type and the only one showing is cottone and you need a sun stone thats hard to find and nuzleaf dosent spawn that much and i would need 300 candies any tips to make this procces faster

[leaden arch]

Hey I’m stuck waiting for a last meowth ballon to spawn right now am I screwed when the event ends in 8 hours or will meowth balloons keep spawning?

[livid spade]

Me too

[timid edge]

does the vent end in 8 hours

[livid spade]

I only have two more chances

No 15

So we all have two more chances

Until we are screwed

Hopefully we are not XD

[woeful pulsar]

meowth balloons will be going away after this event, but they will be spawning on christmas day as well

we don't know of any other events for them after that, but there will likely be some

[stark narwhal]

I can’t wait until tomorrow so I can get different spawns. I’m so tired of these

[odd glade]

The event's spawns are really boring

I liked the previous event with all the mid-forms

[stark narwhal]

And why were only the shiny rates for Dwebble and Durant increased? At least boost all of them.

They’re extremely dry spawns.

[odd glade]

Hoothoot and Cottonee don't even have a shiny

[woeful pulsar]

not a fan of the new costumes

[odd glade]

e..ew

[stark narwhal]

Goodness

[cold saffron]

what is that thingy Cubchoo has on it's head, a ribbon?

[odd glade]

Wow another pikachu iam so hyped

[woeful pulsar]

yeah like a ribbon/bow

[cold saffron]

the costumes are hella underwhelming

[odd glade]

I like Cubchoo's ribbon but all the rest are pretty meh

And I bet this Cubchoo can't evolve

[woeful pulsar]

yeah most likely

[untold breach]

oh I'm disappointed in them tbh

smh can't even make slowpoke wear the damn glasses

[runic socket]

#pogo_friend_codes

[severe phoenix]

YOU WERE RIIIIGHT

Ahhhh I was just complaining I didn’t have one

Now here’s the uh oh part of the Mew Missions

10 raids and a Gyarados

[fickle sluice]

Ohh I’m stuck on that part too

[runic socket]

Wanted to go see if my local Best Buy has any Pokémon go pokeball but don’t know if I want to drive on icy roads for that or not

[runic socket]

[minor pilot]

😄

[stark narwhal]

Doro did you get more snow?

[untold breach]

Get a gotcha instead

[runic socket]

I’m trying to find one but none of the places around me are selling it I don’t think gonna go to Best Buy later and see if I can find one of those too. They look amazing

[haughty saddle]

Gotcha are amazing.

Order it online

[runic socket]

It finally stopped LOL

[haughty saddle]

v v v worth

[untold breach]

listen to shark

[runic socket]

I tried to order it online but it won’t be here until January 6th if I do

[haughty saddle]

Once you figure out how to pair it, and how it behaves, it's so worth it.

[runic socket]

[untold breach]

Jan 6th isn't that far

[stark narwhal]

How much did you end up with?

[haughty saddle]

Yeah, sometimes they're on back order.

[runic socket]

So I’m gonna see if it’s at the store first

[haughty saddle]

Very unlikely

[stark narwhal]

I saw pictures of over two feet in Southern NY

[runic socket]

And then order online if I have to

Yeah we got about 2ft here

I dug out my car today

[stark narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/gross-bleh-nope-grossed-out-yuck-gif-5759353

[runic socket]

Shark bestbuy website says they have them so I’m remaining optimistic the plan is to go out and check, and if they don’t have it I’m just gonna order off Amazon

it would be really nice to have that thing running in my pocket while I’m at work

[haughty saddle]

It does have a pretty ugly wristband

but I wear it anyway

because it's easy

[runic socket]

Can’t you put it on a keychain too?

[haughty saddle]

If you get one and have trouble linking it, let me know

[stark narwhal]

I was trying to shake my phone to run up the egg counter, but I almost made an SOS call.

[runic socket]

LOL

[quiet coral]

loool

also do jessie and james have boosted shiny odds?

[quasi mica]

@runic socket where do you live at with 2ft of snow?

[quiet coral]

isnt that like canada?

were theres that much snow

[stark narwhal]

Pennsylvania and New York got hit

[haughty saddle]

Baltimore got a lil bit, but like... not even 6in

[quasi mica]

Y do snow removal and at 2ft I would be out for days lol

Nothing in Kansas kc and Branson got like 6 inches only a 3 Hour Drive

[stark narwhal]

The northeast gets big snows all the time

[quasi mica]

I*

[untold breach]

Man I do not miss East Coast snow at all

[haughty saddle]

I honestly do

I loved the snow

The one thing I hated as a kid was having to wear boots over my halloween costumes

[odd current]

Finally Lol

[untold breach]

If my uni wasn't absolute trash about closing for snow I might've enjoyed it more

but they were shit heads that made things dangerous for everyone

[odd current]

I just had a mission for Dragonair where I could get a total of 200000 exp but I used an lucky egg so I got 400000 exp

Finally lvl 30 now

[untold breach]

Noice

[quasi mica]

Nice

[haughty saddle]

💪

[charred rapids]

is there a shiny charm in pogo?

[stark narwhal]

Nope

[charred rapids]

that sucks

[untold breach]

that would be even more OP honestly

But don't give Niantic ideas they'll charge like $20 for it

Hell maybe even more

[charred rapids]

oh shiny odds are pretty high anyway

1 in 450

[haughty saddle]

They are, except that in regular Pokemon games you can just repeat encounters until you get it. In Pokemon Go, often those encounters cost raid passes, which cost actual money.

[untold breach]

SO

Meowth balloons are still appearing for anyone worried

[haughty saddle]

No they don't

[river forge]

Need 3 friends for a mission, anyone help me?

[untold breach]

shark do u wanna fight

explain this

[haughty saddle]

spoilers: Meowth balloons are a myth

[untold breach]

you're a myth

[analog steeple]

Anyone who has one is using hax

[untold breach]

fuck you got me

[analog steeple]

Bout to tag POGO helpers on you destiny

Wait a sec

[untold breach]

[analog steeple]

[haughty saddle]

[paper reef]

[haughty saddle]

[paper reef]

[analog steeple]

[still pollen]

I guess it’s just like the anime then lol

Cho you still waiting on your Meowth balloons?

[analog steeple]

You know it

[untold breach]

it'll be your Christmas present from Niantic at this rate

[analog steeple]

[charred rapids]

does anybody have a trash treecko they can trade? I need only a few more candies to evolve mine

[still pollen]

I’ll trade you I need to do some trades for a research anyways

[charred rapids]

ok!

[stark narwhal]

Are you two less than 10km away?

[charred rapids]

[stark narwhal]

Ah okay, then you can probably meet up then. Nvm

[charred rapids]

[still pollen]

Added

Oh wait so we have to be close to trade? I’ve never done a trade before on PoGo so I’m a little bit of a newb on this lol

[analog steeple]

Yup

[stark narwhal]

Yeah you have to be close

[charred rapids]

same

that sucks

[still pollen]

Rip

[amber temple]

Is it bad i have a rattata and pikachu collection

[analog steeple]

Physically close

[still pollen]

Sorry I didn’t know Simber 🤦🏽‍♂️

[charred rapids]

same

its fine

[runic socket]

I live in PA

Well my outdoor adventure in the snow and ice resulted in me twisting my ankle and face planting on ice

[charred rapids]

that sucks

[runic socket]

It did and I didn’t get anything good out of it either

[charred rapids]

i literally dont move all day so i havent hurt myself at all

[stark narwhal]

My dad just broke his tooth on lunch and just left for the dentist, so there's that.

[paper reef]

I really want a shiny Woobat, why won’t it spawn?

It’s a Unova pokemon so it should have a shiny variant right?

[stark narwhal]

I don't know if woobat shiny is out yet

[cold saffron]

iirc it is

[mortal basalt]

It is. Someone in shiny hunters got one

[stark narwhal]

Just nabbed Pinsir so that's dope

[faint ferry]

got my 2nd meowth balloon

[charred rapids]

i havent gotten any balloons ;-;

[faint ferry]

13th times the charm

[charred rapids]

do shinies spawn in the overworld?

[faint ferry]

no

[analog steeple]

[stark narwhal]

@charred rapids you won’t see them until you start the encounter

[faint ferry]

you can only see if theyre shiny when you check

[charred rapids]

ok

[faint ferry]

you can just check them and run if all you want is shiny

they wont reroll though

[charred rapids]

thanks!

[stark narwhal]

Is Diglett's out yet?

[faint ferry]

got my red onion

[analog steeple]

Nice !!!

[stark narwhal]

Cottonee and Drilbur shinies aren't in the game yet right?

[solemn salmon]

Finally!

got a meowth balloon on my alt

[last hinge]

I only have two more chances for getting my second meowth balloon before I have to wait for Christmas. I’m praying out here 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[solemn salmon]

you got this!

[last hinge]

Thanks Alex

[analog steeple]

Me too Lucas

[solemn salmon]

cho

[last hinge]

What’s so annoying is that my first balloon during the event was a meowth balloon but I wasn’t on the last step yet so it didn’t count

[livid spade]

Oof

[last hinge]

But it’s supposed to be a 50% spawn rate so hopefully the rng does it’s thing

[livid spade]

I need one more balloon

[last hinge]

Same

[livid spade]

I have two more chances

[last hinge]

Me too

[livid spade]

So gl to both of us

[last hinge]

Yeah

[livid spade]

My rng better not fail me lol

I need this

[last hinge]

I feel you man but worst case we just have to wait for Christmas

[livid spade]

Lol

[last hinge]

But it would be nice to get it before then

[livid spade]

Yeah

It is sad that you have to have some experience to be able to get it

[faint ferry]

reminder

[livid spade]

Good thing I had experience

[quiet coral]

wait doesnt it countinie to spawn for the rest of the month?

[faint ferry]

for an undetermined period

and J&J will be 100% spawn on 25th

[last hinge]

I’m pretty sure they stop spawning at 10pm Thursday local time and they come back on Christmas

[faint ferry]

check the top pinned message in channel

[stark narwhal]

that shiny pinsir's IV were booty

[last hinge]

Ahh I see

[livid spade]

If I don’t get the shiny Celibi I’ll be sad

Only 2 hours and 10 minutes till next balloon spawn

[faint ferry]

i woke up at 5:50, so i got 2 chances at it pretty close together

[frosty lintel]

I need friends in pokemon go

I have no friends

And I would like to send gifts to people

[faint ferry]

there are a bunch of friend codes in #784549820412854322

[paper reef]

Thanks.

[crisp relic]

🌺QueenSarah🌺 has given 1 'General Rep' to Fubani.

[lament girder]

Since Ditto will be shiny in FEB I'm curious how they're gonna handle it's apparences

[faint ferry]

probably just have whatever its disguised as appear shiny

[stark narwhal]

Hopefully

Niantic will find a way to mess it up

[faint ferry]

just like gamefreak

[fast copper]

It may be that they give a task with a guaranteed shiny like they did with eevee

[lament girder]

Also thinking if Ditto gets released shiny, I think I know what they could do next

[quiet coral]

i think thell probably like prank us

like catch shiny mew but its a shiny ditto

and then you get to catch the actual shiny mew

[lament girder]

-cough- Zorua -cough-

the perfect og ditto replacement

[haughty saddle]

They are JUST NOW getting to Gen 6 pokemon. You think they're gonna release the latest legendaries?

Or is it Gen 5?

[stark narwhal]

Zorua isn't a legendary

[quiet coral]

isnt zorua from gen 7 tho?

oh wait nvm

[stark narwhal]

Gen 5

[haughty saddle]

Oh wait, I was thinking the grass monkey thing

from Gen 8

what is that?

[charred rapids]

Zarude

[haughty saddle]

I stopped playing before it came out

[quiet coral]

thats kinda za rude

[haughty saddle]

yeeeee

[charred rapids]

Sandstorm

[haughty saddle]

[faint ferry]

dududududu

[gilded rune]

Guys I got a shiny

Finally after years of search

[haughty saddle]

it looks exactly the same, but with a big black box over your screen

[gilded rune]

Sorry I was watching a show

[haughty saddle]

lmao

[gilded rune]

Lol

[vernal nebula]

Have tw remix gxt want 2k creds

[charred rapids]

Honestly they’ll probably just release ditto as is, giving it all the common Pokémon as it’s pool, pidgey, rat, paras, spearow, nidoran and probably a few others, catching a shiny one might transform? I mean the shiny rates for a good amount of mons are boosted.

[stark narwhal]

@gilded rune shiny Crustle is great though so def evolve it

[gilded rune]

Yeah I was gonna say that

[muted compass]

I got my shiny celebi

[gilded rune]

Yep beautiful lime biy

[muted compass]

15 12 13 GGG

[gilded rune]

Wow nice!!

[muted compass]

also got a 15 12 15 cottonee today :)))

[gilded rune]

Nice

[muted compass]

don't you all just hate it when your pokemon stays in the gym for like 3 days

[gilded rune]

Yeahhhhhh lol

[muted compass]

I left a pokemon during a roadtrip and it stayed at that dormant gym for 3 weeks LOL

[gilded rune]

LOL

[muted compass]

last year, it didn't come back til may and I left it in march

[gilded rune]

I had like 4 Pokemon in gyms and they all stayed in there until one day every single one died on the same day

[faint ferry]

i hate this 2min countdown on raids...

idc if more people join for a dumb 1 star, just lemme start

[lament girder]

Hears Zarude, -sees this- (ZA RUDO!)

[small cobalt]

lol

[minor pilot]

I traded a magikarp with my friend and this happened

[faint ferry]

lol

[minor pilot]

He even said to trade at the third pokemon cause it was his “lucky number”

And it actually worked

[faint ferry]

ive got a shiny magikarp to reroll still

probably just to send to home though

[paper reef]

It’a telling me to go that way.

[faint ferry]

👉

[severe phoenix]

Ughhhh

I have to get 4 wins on every 6 sets of battle league I do for the next 3 days if I want a Gyrados

Which isn’t bad now that the cap is 2,500 but still, that’s gonna suck

I can only have one loss per set

[paper reef]

Just battle an alt account

Or I can battle you and let you win each time

[severe phoenix]

Doesn’t it have to be Go League?

[stark narwhal]

yup

at least i thought so

[paper reef]

I helped someone out the other day with 30+ battles and they leveled up

[severe phoenix]

I don’t need a level I need to do the brackets for Rare Candy

[paper reef]

Ah okay

[severe phoenix]

Since all the Magikarp have up and vaporized

[paper reef]

I think you get a rare candy for the first battle you beat me in

If you want to test it to see if it works I don’t mind. I’ll just be a bit laggy since I’m in the middle of god knows where.

It’s pretty though

[severe phoenix]

It taunts meee

I have 0 raid passes too

So it’s a real spit in the face

I can do in person raids but I don’t walk often

My best bet is a gym a day for the 50 coins

And then gradually save up

It takes 4 days for 250 so if I want 9 I’d need 16 unless they do a freebie event in celebration of Christmas

[minor pilot]

You can do it in 10 days thanks to the daily raid passes

[faint ferry]

i can evolve my pupitar today...

[still pollen]

@analog steeple I just got another Meowth balloon just wanted to let you know lol

[paper reef]

Omg, I’m at Starbuck in Angels Camp and they were just playing Rhinestone Eyes by the Gorillaz!

They know good music

[charred rapids]

Good day to everybody!

[plush spear]

Got it

[paper reef]

Congrats!

[still pollen]

Thanks for the raid @paper reef ☺️

[crisp relic]

Pietro (POGO lanilowtide) has given 1 'General Rep' to 🌺QueenSarah🌺.

[paper reef]

I caught a bb spooder today when it was raining this morning at home.

[paper reef]

No problem. I used my free daily orange raid pass since I’m parked right outside Starbucks & Pizza Hut where it’s at.

[analog steeple]

Pain

6 minutes before I can be let down again

[still pollen]

That’s smart I need to walk my lazy butt to a gym one day instead of buying the remotes. I live Downtown so there’s like plenty of raids near me at any given time.lol

[still pollen]

You got this! Sending you good vibes!lol

[paper reef]

Let down again? What happened Cho?

[analog steeple]

Meowth balloons

[paper reef]

Ah, I’ve gotten like 10 in the past 3 days. I’m sending you good luck.

[analog steeple]

This is one of my last attempts left

[paper reef]

What do you mean?

[still pollen]

Is today the last day to actually be able to get shiny Celebi?

[analog steeple]

For today. 2 more spawn chances

Nah they’ll be back Christmas

[paper reef]

No, you keep the quest forever if you didn’t complete it

Just Meowth balloons are rare event battles

[still pollen]

Ahh okay I see

Good luck Cho!

Let me get back to work you guys have a good rest of your day

[paper reef]

Okay have a good day

[analog steeple]

See ya later pietro !

I’m saving coins for the regi weekend

[paper reef]

When I leave later when my grandma is done with signing her paperwork I’ma go down the road and get this Pokestop lol.

[haughty saddle]

This is my fav pokestop

[paper reef]

Finally she spawned!!! I can get Mewtwo right after her!

[stark narwhal]

phrog

[paper reef]

Time to catch me a Mewtwo

[stark narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-giovanni-team-rainbow-rocket-rainbow-rocket-trr-gif-14640319

[last hinge]

I got my second meowth balloon!

I just need to hatch two eggs and celebi is mine

[paper reef]

Can I ever catch it again from Giovanni or is it a one time thing from this quest. I know I can catch it on special events like PoGo Day and stuff but I mean this exact one if it’s possible.

And can I ever get a Black Radar again?

Good Luck Lucas!

[last hinge]

Thanks!

[paper reef]

Best of luck to both of us

omg they are playing more Gorillaz!

[last hinge]

I need to try and hatch these eggs!

[paper reef]

They have DARE playing!

I love Gorillaz so much

[last hinge]

Gorillaz is a vibe

[paper reef]

Okay back to Mewtwo. Good luck

[last hinge]

I’m going to go on a long walk and try and hatch an egg

Good luck

[paper reef]

Aw dang it, It scans like a normal radar. I was hoping I could battle him right away

[analog steeple]

[paper reef]

Is Giovanni in it? I’ll gladly take it lol

But don’t worry about it Cho, at least Christmas day is a 100% guaranteed spawn rate all day long. You’ll finish that quest instantly and you can even be one of the few people to make it extra special by catching it on Xmas day as your own Christmas Gift and a special tag saying “Christmas Day” or something.

Now I kinda wish I waited til Christmas.. damn

@analog steeple ^

[analog steeple]

Yeah I’m not too beat up about it. Now I don’t have to worry about checking for the damn balloons lol

[paper reef]

That was your last spawn chance right?

[analog steeple]

One more

I have a 6pm spawn chance

[paper reef]

How is your RNG so randomly bad though? I keep getting them and I want them to go away. I only battle them now for hopes of a shiny. I’ve battled like 10 balloons now.

Well I hope you get it during that time

[haughty saddle]

I've seen two meowth balloons so far, but one was the first one before I made it to that screen.

I check every 6 hours.

[analog steeple]

“Yo cho why you suck so much”

[solemn salmon]

[runic socket]

I’ve had 7 meowth balloons now

[solemn salmon]

No

Doro cute

[analog steeple]

[runic socket]

[analog steeple]

[solemn salmon]

[analog steeple]

Send me a meowth balloon I’ll send you this rare hat pika

[haughty saddle]

I'll give you a hat charmander

[crude nacelle]

Bought a Rocket Radar to use for my balloon at noon.
It was a Meowth balloon.

Feels bad man.
I'm done with the Celebi quest. 😭

[analog steeple]

I wonder if I can do that

[runic socket]

My celebi is trash

[crude nacelle]

mine's okay

not like i'll ever use it for anything.

[analog steeple]

Oh nvm I’m too poor to buy it lol

[twilit sapphire]

same, but not as trash as my Victini from Fest

for being paid, the ivs were almost the lowest possible

also, rufflet raids are a lie

[analog steeple]

I have one rn

[faint ferry]

politoed or poliwrath?

[analog steeple]

Toed is cuter

[faint ferry]

wish i knew what kinda tasks the mew event required

[twilit sapphire]

the normal mew? or the shiny mew?

i mean, there isn't anything yet for the shiny one

also, it's been one year since the cutest GO ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tU_D0e2auE

[haughty saddle]

IM NOT CRYING YOURE CRYING

[twilit sapphire]

[gilded rune]

Interesting...

[tawny vigil]

Any else upset that they are releasing the mew I think it’s ruins it’s rarity

[twilit sapphire]

why would i be upset

[charred rapids]

I mean

First legit shiny mew in 15 years

Not really something to be upset about imo

[fickle sluice]

Will you be able to continue the research for shiny mew even after the event?

Also I got a rufflet raid!

[gilded rune]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[fickle sluice]

WOW CONGRATS!

[stark narwhal]

I’m so jealous of the Roggenrola

I want that one so bad

[gilded rune]

I bet you could get it after but idk

[stark narwhal]

Just a lot harder lol

[gilded rune]

@stark narwhal I was always jeaulous of roggenrola

Finally got one

[stark narwhal]

I got Crustle at least

[floral tusk]

Good evening pogo gen

[muted compass]

How do you all play pogo at home?? 🏠

No pokemon appear :(

[twilit sapphire]

Inciense

[floral tusk]

I get like 4 pokemon spawns at my house..

If i drop an incense i can more

[twilit sapphire]

I put myself pokestop nominations since i live in front of a small park and those are my only spawns, they aren't that big tho but incense it's worth

[floral tusk]

Very smart

Im not high enough lvl to nominate a location yet

[stark narwhal]

I can't express how excited I am for new spawns tomorro

[floral tusk]

Whatre they changing to?

[stark narwhal]

back to normal

[floral tusk]

I think I have a graphic one sec

There will also be an increase of Team GO Rocket balloons, including Meowth balloons, on December 25.

[analog steeple]

AHHH MY DAMN FINGER

[twilit sapphire]

[analog steeple]

you didn’t see anything

[crude nacelle]

yeah, it's when it's medium sized. you need to hit it within the circle as well.

[faint ferry]

nice, great, and excellent throws all increase the catch chance

[harsh jungle]

The circle shrinking matters?!

as well as curveballs

yes lol

[analog steeple]

Although the great circle can be a bit wider tbh

[harsh jungle]

You can curve the ball?!

[analog steeple]

I yeet great throws for days

[crude nacelle]

the smaller the circle, the more likely you are to catch the Pokémon.

[faint ferry]

move your finger in circles while holding the ball

when you throw it, dont aim directly at the mon

[crude nacelle]

You get more XP for making Excellent or Great Throws, as well as curving the ball.

[harsh jungle]

Wow I’ve barely been playing, huh

[faint ferry]

curveball throws are 1.7x catch modifier, for example

[crude nacelle]

I find that curveballs are more accurate in hitting the circle than throwing it straight on.
You just have to practice a bit. Try to find larger Pokémon to practice on.

[stark narwhal]

Oh I thought the size of the circle determined if it was Nice Great of Excellent

[faint ferry]

electabuzz is super easy to hit

[stark narwhal]

Snorlax too

[crude nacelle]

That's exactly it Chris.

[faint ferry]

it does... if you hit within the circle

[crude nacelle]

Wailmer is nice too.

And Makuhita.

[analog steeple]

Onix too

[faint ferry]

ironically, i find the hardest mons to hit accurately are things super close to you like weedles and shit

[crude nacelle]

Most Legendary Raid Bosses that aren't Rayquaza or the Lake Trio lmao

[faint ferry]

its really hard to throw it soft enough without just hitting the ground

[twilit sapphire]

it feels weird seeing purple pinning here

[severe coral]

Why???

[paper reef]

I have been searching for Giovanni and I’ve encountered 3 Decoy Grunts so far. I’m only guessing this since it seems like something any game would do but I’m assuming it’s 3 or 5 grunts at most before you’re allowed the boss battle. Does anyone know the accuracy on this?

[faint ferry]

im still waiting to find a cliff battle to unlock giovanni

[paper reef]

I was hoping I could use Ultra Balls but I know it’s probably going to be a Premier Ball catch and not guaranteed to catch...

[floral tusk]

Would anyone mind doing a touch trade for me? I need to evolve my boldore

[faint ferry]

a what?

[paper reef]

You can only trade in PoGo if your close irl

Touch Trades are when you trade just to register the pokemon in the pokedex and you trade the same pokemon right back

It’s a mainstream game phrase and not used in PoGo since you can only trade a pokemon once anyways to each other

[faint ferry]

yeah...

1359 mine...

[stark narwhal]

Do you mean 1399 is the max when caught?

[plush spear]

Yeah

Oh okay.

[livid spade]

alr nice

nvm I have nothing to worry about XD

[autumn goblet]

Hey all, a new player to POGO and I'm about to encounter the shiny celebi (my first mythical) and I read somewhere that it can't run away so no need to use a rare berry on it, but hoped someone could verify if this is correct because if it runs away before I can catch it I shall mourn eternally.

[gilded rune]

NO NO NO

I HAD A MEOWTH BALLOON BUT WHEN I OPENED MY GAME AT 7:30 IT FLEW AWAY

I'm not actually that mad cuz I already did the challenge

[twilit sapphire]

Mythics from special research can't run away but they will always get caught at the third pokeball.

but you can't give berries to them

They will always get out of the first 2 balls

[charred rapids]

I finally finished my Shiny Celebi research, and because of the Vibrava at the end of the shiny Celebi research I was also able to beat my Throwback Championship research after all this time. So now I have a Genesect in an ultra ball.

[autumn goblet]

Thanks so much for the knowledge drop!!! Weird that they make it always catch on the 3rd, guess you gotta pay up before the reward haha

[crisp relic]

jessiehuff has given 1 'General Rep' to Aimee.

[primal gyro]

...What mon is "a mythical discovery"? After redownloading Home for no other reason than Shiny Celebi, I realize I have this research I never did.

[twilit sapphire]

Mew

[charred rapids]

After you progress in the Mew research you later unlock normal Celebi’s research.

[twilit sapphire]

the first big special research

[charred rapids]

Mew’s probably is the most difficult since one of the tasks is to evolve a Magikarp and you need 400 candies for that.

[primal gyro]

Oh dang, I should probably do sometime lol. Would at least make good trade fodder

Sweet. I just blew 100 magikarp candies. Guess I'll wait for magikarp community day or something

[charred rapids]

I think the task to evolve Magikarp is in the 5th or 6th part of the research so you have some time. If Magikarp’s your buddy it only takes 1km to get a candy from it

[twilit sapphire]

We don't talk about that here

Please don't ask about spoofing, it's against Niantic ToS and ours too

[twilit sapphire]

Also, let's not forget the ditto pain

[charred rapids]

Oh yeah Ditto is a nightmare, it only disguises itself as a few Pokémon that are supposed to be very common, but Ditto is very hard to find. I was able to find one disguised as a Whismur after a long time

[vestal dirge]

ah ok, thanks for answering!

my closest pokestop is 500m *sad pepe meme

[stark narwhal]

Hoothoot has been Ditto during this current event

[charred rapids]

With the mythicals in Pokémon Go, Genesect is probably one of the few that has been available in certain Pokéballs. After I beat my Throwback Championship research I could catch it in a pokéball, great ball or ultra ball. Since it’s also been in raid events it’s also been catchable in a premier ball. So all four of those pokéballs are completely legal for it now.

Which is honestly pretty cool

Now that I also have a shiny Celebi, I’m going to transfer it from Go to Home. Got one shot to see if it gets a best IV for it’s speed stat.

[gilded rune]

.7 kms from celebi

[charred rapids]

Was going to post a screenshot of the shiny Celebi, but since it’s not in Go anymore I’ll just do that in the shiny hunter channel.

[paper reef]

11th spawn since the beginning of the event. They need to shoo

Go bother people who actually need them still

[stark narwhal]

Still a chance for shinies tho

[charred rapids]

Well Jessie and James haven’t left Ash alone after all these years, maybe they’ll do the same for you.

[stark narwhal]

Should I purify shiny Shadow Pinsir?

[charred rapids]

I usually purify all the Pokémon I can get. So it count towards the medal for it.

[stark narwhal]

It's only 680 CP

Yeah I might as well

Holy schnike its now over 2k cp

[twilit sapphire]

im saving the shadow mons for the level up requirements of 40ish something

since you need to purify lots of shadow mons

[stark narwhal]

I'm only level 35 so I'll cross that bridge when I get there.

[faint ferry]

i got a pretty nice shadow scyther...

[stark narwhal]

So does mewtwo get a huge boost in CP if you purify it too?

[faint ferry]

id assume its the same as any other shadow?

[stark narwhal]

Well a lot of people say its better to keep it as a shadow so I was just wondering

[faint ferry]

shadow pokemon deal a lot more damage

[twilit sapphire]

yeah, still the same boost, but shadow mewtwo it's better than normal mewtwo so

[stark narwhal]

My Mewtwo is sub 1k cp though

[crisp relic]

Aimee

[Message Link](#pogo_discussion message) to #pogo_discussion

In PvE, a level 20 Shadow Mewtwo 0* is as strong as a 4* lvl 40 Non-Shadow Mewtwo.
IVs only matter when deciding which 6 Shadows to keep, not whether you use a shadow or not.
20% atk > +15 ATK IV.

Req. by Aimee. Quote from · Dec 12, 2020, 8:18 AM

[paper reef]

I do enjoy them for the shiny chance. But that’s about it. I just want people who actually need them to get them more.

[twilit sapphire]

Of course, its up to you if you purified or don't

That's just info to keep in mind if you want to use it or something ,you're not forced to follow that

[faint ferry]

15/14/12 603 shadow scyther

[paper reef]

I think I’m going to keep my Mewtwo when I catch it from Giovanni soon and wait until another Frustatuon removal event happens again. I sadly didn’t have anything worthy of removing frustration on during this recent one like a month ago.

Shadow Mewtwo is a powerhouse

[faint ferry]

need 25 more candy for scizzor

[solar mason]

Lol hold up, I just evolved a 312 weedle and it became a 282 kakuna

[stark narwhal]

LMAO

get jebaited

[solar mason]

Something doesn’t seem right here lol

[twilit sapphire]

it happens a lot it's totally normal

[faint ferry]

yeah, the average increase for weedles is real low

[twilit sapphire]

happens with the console game too

[solar mason]

But it gets lower?

[twilit sapphire]

yeh

[solar mason]

Why lol

[faint ferry]

the CP change is a range, and with weedle its close enough to x0 average that it can go lower

[twilit sapphire]

cocoon forms are weaker, using the irl info, so it's normal for cocoon mons to do that

it will get a cp up when evolving to final form

[solar mason]

Lol weird

[twilit sapphire]

yeah, it's totally normal

[faint ferry]

yeah

[solar mason]

I guess I just haven’t evolved bugs enough to notice

[faint ferry]

from kakuna to beedril is like ~5x

[lament scarab]

Finally got my shiny evolved

Off to home it goes

[stark narwhal]

I haven't bothered to even open up the box since I got a regular Melmetal tbh

[lament scarab]

It was an event for Pokémon go working with Home. You had a chance of finding a shiny

[stark narwhal]

I gotta hop outta bed for this right?

[twilit sapphire]

[lament scarab]

I just accidentally wasted my candy by spamming transfer:/ and evolved a trash meltan lol

[stark narwhal]

I mean when is the next time Noibat will spawn near me

[lament scarab]

Ohhh

Near me is just trash

[stark narwhal]

I don’t want to be creepy driving around the neighborhood looking for a virtual creature. I’m sure the cops will understand

[lament scarab]

Lol I don’t go out after dark

[stark narwhal]

I live in a very small town. I'm lucky I don't have to worry about it too much.

He's already gone. I couldn't have found him if I wanted to.

Oh no he's back again

[lament scarab]

Oh that’s good

Yeah I live in the city now so I don’t go out after dark

Luckily I live next to a bunch of poke stops so I don’t really need to leave unless I wanna do a gym or a raid

Rarely tho my game glitches me to the gym

But it’s only happened twice

F I gotta wait to send it

[stark narwhal]

I just popped an incense and hopefully it works. I tried walking down the street and I felt creepy doing it so I just came back.

[untold breach]

Y'all better be ready for early regiwhateverthefuckcauseicantremember

ah, it's steel this weekend

oof

cho cute

[charred rapids]

[gilded rune]

I finally got a froakie

phew

[cerulean elm]

You get a froakie for rank 18 guaranteed first encounter

[stark narwhal]

but that requires pvp skill.

[cerulean elm]

That you don’t have?

It’s rewarding

[stark narwhal]

Yeah, the implication is that I don't have the skill or patience

[cerulean elm]

Fair enough, I have good skill but patience is a bit more limited, at ace rank right now

[stark narwhal]

I have a froakie anyway

[odd glade]

I find PvP pretty boring, I only play it when they host a special tournaments so I don't use or play against the same pokemons over and over.

[minor pilot]

What’s the best team for Jessie and James

[stark narwhal]

Well Jessie is bug/poison,/normal. I typically use a fire, psychic, and fighting pokemon for here and just a fire/psychic and ground for james.

[vestal dirge]

hello guys, i want to start joining raids. can someone explain on how to join raids?

[stark narwhal]

remotely or just in general?

[vestal dirge]

remotely

[stark narwhal]

Okay, well you need to have a remote raid pass first off. You can monitor the raid channels here and add host trainer codes once they put them up. There is an app called PokeRaid but some people don't like the interface used. I use it a whole lot to join, but I host raids here.

[vestal dirge]

yep i have the remote raid pass, is it infinite or one time use?

[stark narwhal]

They are each one use

[vestal dirge]

oh dang

i see so we add them and join their raid? kinda similar on the legendary hunt in crown tundra?

and one more, how to get more coins?

[stark narwhal]

you can get a max of 50 coins per day by having a pokemon occupy a gym for 8 hours. No matter how many different gyms are occupied you will only get 50 coins.

[vestal dirge]

noted on that

[stark narwhal]

But spreading them out increases the chances of one reaching the mark of 50

[vestal dirge]

i see ok thank you!

ill try to understand how raids work first

*by joining some raids

[fossil nymph]

Woke up to this!

Bad ivs as always

[quick notch]

is the shiny celebi paid event?

[stark narwhal]

no

[charred rapids]

Hi hi hi

I have three eggs to hatch then pink onion is mineeeee

too bad I'm stuck trying to hatch a 12k and it's in the only incubator I have

so dead in here today.

I'm just gonna go.. you folks be safe.

[obtuse sundial]

I need one meowth balloon for shiny celebi
My sister got 4 meowth balloons and I'm still looking for them😂

[harsh jungle]

I decided to try out this “curveball” thing on james’ shadow pinsir, was not a good test subject

I completely whiffed all 5 or 6 balls

[stark narwhal]

Quick heads up, according to the PoGo subreddit, Niantic is removing stops and gyms based on the ar scans that players do. I'd advise completely ignoring those tasks.

[harsh jungle]

That’s weird

[charred rapids]

Luckily Niantic extended Jessie and James being in the game until late February so should be more then enough time to find another balloon.

I already avoid doing the AR tasks whenever I get them since I actually have no idea how to do them.

[obtuse sundial]

Yeah, but I need the celebi sooner
Don't want to wait till Feb lol

[charred rapids]

Oh I completely understand, this is a shiny mythical we’re talking about. Things like that aren’t so easily distributed

[harsh jungle]

I had an AR scan for a whole ass restaurant and I was like “no”

I ain’t circling the place with my phone like a creep

I considered it tho

[mint echo]

woah. i didn't realize this existed

[stone gale]

GALARIAN MR. MIME IN GO

[stark narwhal]

Yeah for 8 bucks. No way. I'm not encouraging this from Niantic

[stone gale]

You had to log in the past 4 days in order to have the event registered to your account. If you log in now, then you've missed your chance.

Oh waaaat
That stinks

[quick notch]

i have it i logged in today

[glacial geode]

anyone know the next raid boss

[stark narwhal]

Registeel is going to be this weekend.

[glacial geode]

ok

[stark narwhal]

Kyurem goes away at the beginning of January

[glacial geode]

thanks

[harsh jungle]

How do yall know when things happen? Is there a newsletter?

[mint echo]

meh

[harsh jungle]

I hate all mimes besides mime jr

He can stay

[mint echo]

i don't hate them. but to pay for Galarian Mime? why...?

[analog steeple]

I like mr mime but not paying for him

[harsh jungle]

Ok this is more related to swsh, but when a pokemon’s idle animation in battle is them constantly hopping or moving around, it gets a little exhausting, like chill out mr rime

I love scorbunny but sit down kiddo

[charred rapids]

I have Serebii’s home page on my phone and check it everyday. It helps with keeping up with Pokémon related news.

[stark narwhal]

Hitmontop is guilty of this too

[mint echo]

just like Ash is training to be a Pokemon Master, Rime is training to be a Tappy Master
#EternalStudent #HumbleYoSelf #FoRealSettleDownPokemon

He’s about to run away with my purse but he’s stretching first

Any luck with shiny cubchoo here

[paper reef]

I saw a cubchoo spawned but I’m not sure why. It’s foggy outside so I thought that might have been why

[analog steeple]

@rose skiff I’ll ping you in the raids channel when I get a flygon

[minor pilot]

I got an incense and they spawning rarely but none have been shiny

[paper reef]

Why would they be shiny? Is there an ongoing event for Cubchoos?

[minor pilot]

They got 3 hour incense so I have a bit of time

[minor pilot]

Yes

[paper reef]

3 hours? What are you talking about

There’s no event today is there?

[minor pilot]

My incense are 3 hours long

[paper reef]

Mr. Mime event???

[paper reef]

Yep I was right

[minor pilot]

Cobchoo shiny got released

[paper reef]

I thought it wasn’t for a few more days. These last few days have been insanely stressful for me so the past 4 days feels like 3 weeks

Oh awesome

What time does the event start?

I only see cubchoo on the map

[minor pilot]

Same here I haven’t had time for much so I have been buying incense

[minor pilot]

10am local time

But my incense are still green and say 60 mins

Ah okay, I better save my incense and buy a few more then

Anyway will keep an eye out for Raids. Much appreciated as always!

[karmic raven]

First Vulpix of the day and it was shiny she’s beautiful

[fossil nymph]

Why must it be so weakkkk

[karmic raven]

In cp it can be increased I guess if it’s iv then oof

[stark narwhal]

I have a quilladin with higher CP than my chesnaught

[fossil nymph]

What can ditto turn into?

Still trying to get one for that stupid misson :(

[karmic raven]

To bad you can’t trade ditto for it to be counted as catch a ditto

[solemn salmon]

Shiny cubchoo gib

At least kalos spawns are back

[livid spade]

I need help I can’t transfer my shiny celebi from go to Pokémon sheild

Can someone help me with that

[stark narwhal]

Do you have a celebi already in Shield?

[livid spade]

No

[stark narwhal]

that's why

[livid spade]

Oh so if I get a celebi traded to me can I transfer it then

[stark narwhal]

You're getting the 'this pokemon is not in your save data' message i assume

[livid spade]

Yes

So what do I do

Is it stuck in home now

[stark narwhal]

You have to have a celebi in box to transfer it over

[livid spade]

Alr

I guess I have to find someone who has one

Can you help me with that

[stark narwhal]

I don't have one in Sw/Sh

[livid spade]

Oh ok

Can it be touchtrade

[stark narwhal]

Has to be in box until you celebi from go is in game, then you can trade the other one back

[livid spade]

Like I keep it in until I transfer the shiny celebi

Alr

Ty

[stark narwhal]

np

[coral kite]

i used a insence thinking you could get mr mime during this event

[stark narwhal]

You had to buy the ticket. The ticket gives the research that ends up with mr mime as a reward

Must have been a sufficient response

[coral kite]

im surprised theres no #pogo_trading chat

[charred rapids]

Well trading has a limited distance to 100m

The next time it will be increased is Feb and it’s only 40km.

[coral kite]

oof

[stark narwhal]

that's why I have an alt lol

[twilit sapphire]

Yeah, it isn't necessary a trading channel for pogo since the trade distance is so small

[faint ferry]

i cant imagine the small trade distance is good for the game...

[faint ferry]

oh god... explorer pikachu is still here

[faint ferry]

have prem balls been nerfed or something

failed to catch both pinsir and scyther even using berries

8 balls each

[timid edge]

guys i am new to pokemon go, i started because of the shiny celebi event, just wanted to know when there is a ex gym pokrmon like hariyama with cp 1530 how much should my pokemon be. i am lv 15

and do you guys fin grass pokemon i cant find them

stuck on evolving three grass types

[faint ferry]

youve just gotta hope grass pokemon spawn

[runic socket]

Grass Pokémon spawn more during certain weather patterns. You can also buy a mossy lure and use it at a pokestop to draw in more grass types

[timid edge]

i have useed mossy lure but it dosent do anything almost

[odd glade]

1 mossy lure will encounter 2 or 3 good spawns in average

When I use a special lure, I usually go to a place with 2-3 pokestops that close to each other, and lure all of them

[ocean helm]

Anyone know what the shiny rate is for Jessie's scyther and james' pinsir?

[timid edge]

the thing is i have 40 seedot candy but not a single seedot got 50 cottone candy but dont have a sun stone

[faint ferry]

yeah, the special spawns for the event were bad

[analog steeple]

Gyarados wants bite for the fast move over waterfall right ?

[deep halo]

I did it!

[analog steeple]

Niceeeeee

[odd glade]

Mossy lure will not spawn a seedot, you will have to pinap bellsprouts and odishes
If you are patient, there is a snover spotlight at Dec29, you will be able to farm 150 candies in no time, the thing is the mewoth balloon might be gone until then

[faint ferry]

they may also change the meowth balloon task after theyre gone

[stark narwhal]

I'm getting a lot of Chespin spawning

That could help

[faint ferry]

wish i was gettinng chespins...

[covert fog]

How

[fickle sluice]

I just got my shiny cubchoo!!

Took two hours XD

[stark narwhal]

Which one to evolve?

[untold breach]

No regi raids nearby, sad

[stark narwhal]

Bit early I’d wager

I’ve got Mega Abomasnow

[odd glade]

Why would you evolve the 2nd one?

[still pollen]

I’m sure it’s a joke lol 😆

[analog steeple]

Pietro

I got balloon 2

[still pollen]

[odd glade]

[stark narwhal]

I didn’t know if the CP difference outweighed the IV diff

[analog steeple]

IVs can’t be fixed tho. CP is fixable

[odd glade]

Oh, evolve the first one then
IV's can't be fixed (yet)
