Well the double raid xp using remotes would of helped, was like 45,000+ xp per raid with a lucky egg
I made myself a winter outfit. I like black and yellow and I thought it matched the reindeer theme quite a bit so I went with it. Plus it’s cute.
Ooh that's a cute outfit
Well, of all the cute and lovely Christmas shiny potentials, I get this sad sack of bleh
congrats on your yellow spiky worm
Vegemite lover? You liar! I don’t even eat our famous “delicacy” What are you?
did anyone buy the kanto thing
not yet
i'm not a liar 
In my defense, I grew up on marmite
Okay, fair.
vegemite is definitely better
marmite is better
I bought
Also bought it.
Does the 2x catch candy stack with pinap?
Am I getting 9 candy per catch now or 12
yeh, you would be gettin' 12
Time finish off Vanillite once and for all
@haughty saddle I got the last one at Best Buy 
Tf is that
THAT is a Gotcha
You link it to your phone and it auto-spind stopd and auto catches pokemon
Like the official Pokemon Go thing, but you dont have to press the button

Apparently it’s much nicer than the other ones
the Pokémon go plus and pokeball plus
at least I’m hoping so
Doro thumb

Thumb reveal 

Gonna be wearing this on the ambo tonight. Gonna get all those pokestops while I’m driving to the hospital 
Pokeball plus has been too unreliable for my outings
but this 
Kinda want one now 
I have the OG gotcha. Connecting it can be a little finnicky
But once it's connected WATCH OUT
cause it eats through pokeballs like crazy.
Yeah I’m a little hesitant cause apparently it’s the newer version and not the OG one 
Yeah I saw that
been experiencing that with the Pokémon go plus
But I think I can turn auto catching off
And just have it spin stops
I'm super lucky that my new house has a PokeStop in range of my office
Yes you can
That's very helpful.
My work has a gym right on top of it 
Mine lets you toggle Catching Known Pokemon, Catching Unknown Pokemon, and Spinning Pokestops

oh and you can toggle vibrations to make the battery last longer.
Hopefully mine does the same
It does AT LEAST all that.
yeah I’m turning vibrations off probably
I'm sure
I think yours is also a watch, which is cool
Yes it is 
Doro cute
no u
Gets enough Vanillite to evolve fully; higher IV one only has 150 CP
Also for some reason my charged move is bug buzz. That doesn’t sound like the best option
I’m out of pokeballs and it’s still early
Do I dare leave the house and go for a walk?
In this economy?!
I had to cut mine short because it started freezing rain
If you have a car you can just drive around to pokestops 
For the season of celebration is it possible to catch a fully evolved shiny?
I caught a shiny abomasnow the other day so I’d say yeah
@karmic raven in the wild
Ok thanks now I’ll try to find A fully evolved Pokémon and try getting one
whats the shiny droprate in pogo im new lol
I think I have enough potions and revives for a while
noice lol
I seem to constantly get Max Revives and Max Potions from friends for some reason. It’s like the most common item drop from gifts.
Which mon?
I went to a mall for Christmas shopping and Got distracted with a gym this one dude was persistent and kept defeating my Pokémon it went to a loop until I finally one almost out of revives
Which outfit looks best? I’m currently wearing the first one.
Number 2
The Antler one? Okay, I think my plans for my outfit will be beanie for New Years Eve & New Years, White Antler for today of Xmas Eve, & Black Antler for Christmas.
Thank you for your thoughts.
I haven’t bought a single outfit in the game it’s always pokeballs incense or Remote raids but never clothes
you gotta style though
i bought the vileplume shirt to style
i also would never buy pokeballs. you can just spin stops to get those. raid passes and incubators are usually the best thing to buy imo.
Good enough
I only bought pokeballs once it was for community day tho
Other wise I never would have bought it
I bought pokeballs in 2016 because a Charmander spawned at work lmao
Those were simpler times.
If you're going to spend money on Pokemon GO, I'd heavily suggest that most people invest in getting a Go-tcha.
You probably won't run out of balls after getting one, as long as you are near a couple stops.
Does it auto spin pokestops?
It does. If your GO Plus settings (in Pokémon GO) are set to both Pokémon and Pokéstops, it will prioritize Pokémon. Just a heads-up.
I've had a Go-tcha for several years. I love it.
Maybe I’ll buy one this Christmas 
Hi I just started back playing Pokémon Go does anyone want to be my friend?
Idk if this is late but I love the 3rd one
@feral bridge u can use #pogo_friend_codes 
Thanks yo I just seen it
Whats a good channel to ask for trades?
the trade one
I must be blind or something because I dont see a trade channel
There's no trade channel for GO, since you have to be physically near (within 100m) your trade partner.
alright makes sense
If I trade this to a Best Friends friend What will it’s stats be?
The stats re-roll.
So Attack can be anywhere between 5 and 15.
Defense can be anywhere between 5 and 15.
And Stamina can be anywhere between 5 and 15.
Does anyone know if vanillish is attracted to incense rn in go?
I don’t think so
Rayquaza in raids atm?
I have Kyurem rn 🤔
Disappointing af
Vanillish should be attracted to incense, since it's an event spawn.
There's no incense-specific spawns like there were for the Galarian Mime event.
Yawn city.
I was able to significantly power up a my Vanilluxe thanks to this. Now it’s hovering around 1600 CP instead of the lame 600 CP it had when I first evolved it
Silver linings I suppose
Since Genesect is shiny locked this time, do you think they're going to shiny lock future mythical raids in the future like Darkrai/Deoxys?
Pog
Kinda upset about Genesect being shiny locked I really like that mythical Bug but there nothing I can do and I missed out last time since I was low level
I thought remote raid pass boxes were only able to spawn once every monday morning and you have to wait a week til you can get another free one.
Maybe a "Christmas gift"?
On dec 25 it’s Jessie and James Takeover and it’s a free gift we get
Ah that makes a bit of sense
Well Christmas isn’t for another 7 and a half hours at midnight
For me at least
xmas is already 13hrs in
Happy Christmas Eve!
happy today
Happy all day every day 23hours & 56 mins /7 days a week, 365 & sometimes 366 days a year!
I read somewhere that the Remote Raid free passes go out at 8am local time Christmas Day
Thanks.
🌺QueenSarah🌺 has given 1 'General Rep' to TopRed6899.
shiny shadow pinsir
Happy Christmas to everyone here 
Np. Will confirm in the morning if I remember (GMT gang here) 🙂
Don’t need to confirm it, it’s true.
Even better. Thanks @charred rapids
TopRed6899 has given 1 'General Rep' to MetalJesus |WetNoodle|.
happy holidays man 
Holy cow watch out! Santa is coming in for a landing!
wtf a second shiny shadow pinsir
I haven’t even gotten one
id prefer scyther...
Imagine shiny Shadow Scizor now that’s something
For future Pokémon games or the current Pokémon games on the switch
Welp couldn’t go out today because of heavy rain, hope I find good mons tomorrow for 2x catch candy
19k exp for lvl 33...
I wanted to reach lvl 38 before New Years but that ain’t happening I’m half way done with lvl 33
still hate these dumb event pokemon that cant evolve or even go to home...
name. it. biscuit.
no
Lolol
Sarah has that name 
name it william
Exactly
i cant take off their Jam plus its male
name it pants
in the mainline games i give all my starters terrible names
How do I get good at this game? I'm getting stomped on by rocket GO and their 3k-4k cp Pokemon. My highest is like 1.9k atm
Keep catching every mon you can and transfer them if their ivs aren't good. I saw somewhere that the higher cp average you have, the higher cp wild spawns will have. You just gotta keep leveling and evolving things
It’s all about the grind, ain’t no shortcuts with this game
Lol he mentioned u so I said that as a joke lolol
I know. Just showing my biscuit child lol
Nice!
ive been slacking recently
I’m closing in on legacy 40
Wish I started playing this more seriously before the 'rona
cuz ur ho-oh is secretly a articuno
Articuno w fire blast 👀
Hidden Power can be any Type (except Fairy-type) 🙂
Oooooooooo
That's true of Hidden Power in Gen 2-7 games, as well.
It's always been a move that can be any Type (except Fairy, because Fairy was introduced after HP).
so if I use fast tm do I have the option to get every type of hidden power for it?
To possibly get fire type hidden power
The Hidden Power can't re-roll either, so it's no use trying to get a different type.
That's not 100% true, it can re-roll if a Pokémon is traded.
Nope, it will only be Ice-type for that Ho-Oh.
Oh ok so it’s almost like a legacy move?
Ho-Oh did recently get Incinerate as a Fast Move, and that's Fire-type.
Yeah I was thinking of giving it that but if hidden power can’t reroll I’ll prolly keep the ice type
It's not a Legacy move, since you can always relearn it. But the Type will never change, even if you TM it away and TM it back.
Only time it will change is if you get a Pokémon in a trade that knows Hidden Power, TM that Hidden Power away, and TM Hidden Power back onto it.
But it's honestly not worth doing since Hidden Power isn't that great of a move in GO.
It’s not that good of a ho oh it’s just shiny that’s why I’ll prolly just keep it
Incinerate is far better for Ho-Oh than Hidden Power.
Hidden Power was actually only decent for Ho-Oh for a time, because that was the only way for it to have a Fire-type Fast Move. And only if you were lucky.
But Incinerate is just a better move and also guaranteed Fire-type.
oh ok
I’ll do that for my good one
hidden power can also change type on evolution
Got my celebi finally!
I think some Pokémon have different rates
Like right now some ice types have boosted rates
Thanks
Happy Christmas everyone!
Congrats!!
Thanks, I’m now less than 900k away from legacy 40! And this weekend will be my last push
You got this
Thanks
I get another ez 100k from ultra friends tomorrow, and I’m gonna grind shiny regice
My dad didn’t know the team rocket celebi was a shiny lol
Can someone come and kill my pokemon in my gyms please? #NeedThemCoins
To bad if someone actually knocks them all out today it will only be 50 pokecoins
I got it earlier today.
Niceeee
Daily exp update! Thanks for the gifts guys, you basically made sure I didn’t have to play much today!
Yes, around 600k just from gifts
Dang that is nice unfortunately I am the one always Sind so it is to hard to time the egg for me on my end
You have to monitor your friendship levels and DM people to coordinate
Or just send and then open when the time comes
I do both depending on the person
Ya that is what I should do just hold one and if I know the people dm them so we both benefit from it
Yeah
Cause 200,000 k from one person is amazing
The 100k is better though, takes less time
Well I hate that I almost released my shiny Vulpix it’s a good thing it gives a warning
Congratulations
I am down if you do find one @uncut trail
Does anyone have a dragnair they can trade? Or a dratini?
You have to be in close range to trade
We got four inches of snow so I didn't get out to spin my daily stops ugh
That sucks
I’ll gladly join too. Sadly almost no one hosted any Registeel raids at all so and only one spawned in my town of like 2000 gyms in the 2 days. It was a scam. I just hope Regice people actually try to host in here.
t5 just spawned, gotta wait an hour later to see if its the scrooge or the titanic iceberg
If the snow melts a lot tomorrow I may go look for raids
I can’t wait get Shiny Mew!
I seriously need a gym near me
I feel u
To add a poke stop what are the requirements for a place to be a stop?
I'm down for Regice
@karmic raven all I know is that you have to be lvl 38 to do it and approved some how would be a good YouTube look up
@karmic raven https://youtu.be/j4T0qy_7Y-I
It's Finally here!! How to create a pokestop and gym nomination in pokemon go has finally been globally released to all level 40 players..

- How to make a gym in pokemon go
- Everything you need to know to create stops easil...
Actually tempted to get the Kanto pass, but not sure I can get the 150 pokes to unlock Shiny Mew
Esp since its just 12 hrs
@clever hedge as of right now only way to get shiny mu on this game. It will probably be a task that you have to do and once you get it done you will get it. If you’re missing Pokémon from kanto it is worth it to help fill in dex or get shiny of Rare stuff that you can’t get in your region. But it all really boils down to the point do you want to spend that much money on the game.
Thanks @quasi mica
Crimson Knight12 has given 1 'General Rep' to donnie angel69a.
Np now I know too lol get close to being able to do it wold be cool if you where the person that adds a stop to the game you know
Would actually be quite worth since I can transfer over to SwSh
Ya that is a big bonus too. I finally just finished kanto with the mr. mine event that just happened. But wold love to get some shiny out of stuff that I never see in my area too. I am really waiting on johto I missed some of the hard stuff or missed my one shot to get it with 5 things and it sucks
That sucks was looking forward to regice but it happens. I feel like kyurem has been around a little to long now
Shiny regice 
So what’s the deal with the Kanto Shiny Mew event. If you already have all Kanto Pokemon do you not have to catch all 150 in a single day?
Like if one of the quest is have all Kanto Pokemon Registered and you do, will it just auto finish the goal
Well we don't know, the event isn't even out how can we know how the research will work 
i bop aimee



Well it seemed like above that there was already news out for it the way they were talking about it. I figured since there was already info on it, it might have been out already, or at least a past event similar to it.
i just caught a shiny regice first raid on my fucking alt account
Grats
Trade it to your main
nowhere near best friends tho lol
Any early 2016 mons?
nope
Aw rip.. guess you will have to wait
ye ik
Because it fits perfectly lol
I’m finishing up organizing my pokemon before I go to bed.
@odd glade what’s the significance of early 2016 mons?
They will guarantee a lucky trade
Idk if he meant to the dusts cost as well, but if it's only that I would even trade it as an ultra friend. Rip the IV's tho
If only 2018 could be Lucky trade as well

guys, i have a question, how does raiding work when you arent close (never done it besides with just friends)?
do i just add someone and they sent an invite for raid and i use my raid pass?
remote raid pass, but yes pretty much that
When u are not close to a gym or someone invited you, you use a remote raid pass, the blue ones that let u raid remotely lol, and they are 100 coins dor 1 and 250 for 3
Yea
my buddy told me it only works in your own country so to speak and i never bothered to check if that were true
Yea works for anywhere in the world
cool, i have multiple lego pokies here but barely anyone plays anymore so i can invite poeple from here
What is you’re guys highest cp wild catch?
I think a snorlax with 2.7k or so
Same’
I want to stress that I think Niantic has fucked the raid catch rate as well. I’ve almost always managed to catch the legendary raid bosses on one encounter. It took me 2 raids to catch Regirock, 3 times to catch Registeel, and I just whiffed my first Regice. Honestly this pisses me off more than the other stuff we complain about.
caught all my regice so far tho
all 14 of em
do you aim for excellent throws?
Any bonus is fine
I can't do them consistently
with enough practice you should be able
and its better to lock the circle and throw while they attack
lock the circle?
hold the pokeball and shrink the circle until you can hit an excellent, then let go of the ball
when its doing the attacking animation throw it
Im below the final threshold. I can literally use ultra friends to hit legacy 40 now
You can level easily in the x2 lucky egg duration event & excellent throws
Nala i got my shiny 
Nala, I was going to actually abuse the double evolution exp that day. But I’m 400k off with 4 friends about to hit ultra.
I’m done and exhausted from playing pogo constantly.
I got 2 million exp during the double exp raid days
1.9 mil over community weekend
after lvl 40 are you gonna take breaks 
Yes
good
I had to earn 500k a day to go from lvl 35->40 in a single month
Fun fact btw, I’m ahead of schedule
If I wasn’t so exhausted, I’d probably just make the last push today rather than coast to the end
nah take ur time
Heh, it was supposed to take 28 days, but given the circumstances, it’ll only take 27
Technically only 25, I saved 4 days from the million exp days
I will get that gyarados hat!
:O
which?
Anyone up for a reglice? Need one in #pogo_raids
Wtf Alex you got 2?
Yes

Wow! congrats
Lf Shiny poli
Ft shiny rayquaza, tapu fini
Shiny regice is a bit more noticeable unlike the main games
So I have a question with pokemon home can you now trade on pokemon go?
Only goes Go to Home but not Home to Go
Oh dang
What about pokemon going from go to sw/sh
Are most of the pokemon transferable or what?
So anything leaving Go can’t come back. It’s a 1 way trade
And then you can’t send anything into Go
I get that but what if I wanted to take from my go to my sword
There’s a few that you can’t move like the legendaries or mythicals unless you have in your box or as a dex entry
Ok
So like the Regis can’t be brought in till you have the dex entry
What about mew or mewtwo?
Ok
Looking for regi ice raids. Mega evolved and ready
What’s after this?
I’m not sure. I’m on step 5/8. In October I found over 50 Dittos but since November & December I haven’t seen 1.
Did you all know there is some kind of Smeargle event going on?
Btw, you can just leave and re-enter to the same raid for the battle raid mission.
You can finish it in 2 mins xD
They increased the chance for it to appear, that's all I know
Really thanks Nala that’s such a cheat and real good considering I don’t got any remote raid passes
Marill is an increased spawn?
incense wise or just spawn?
i dont have a smeargle and really want 1 
just take pics until it appears, Alex 
Spawn, just pick the camera in your items bag and snap one of your Pokemons.
nice!
From here on out I’ll only get 2km eggs
How do I get a ditto ?
It’s transformed into a Pokémon
does anyone have a dratini i could get? i need one for a quest...
The trade range is kinda short
You need someone almost near you to be able to trade
oh yea. itotally forgot about that... :/
Anyone know which Pokémon can transform into ditto atm
Hoothoot
I evolved it.
That was a month ago and I still never got any of them to appear as a ditto
On my journey to legacy 40, I got 2 hoothoot dittos
There was an event that made ditto have a higher spawn chance I don’t remember it but it was a couple months ago
That’s how I got mine
I got like 50 back in October but none have spawned since
It was either animation week or Pokémon home celebration I could be wrong tho
I want shiny tepig so badly
Nummel
Do you think it’ll ever be possible to evolve the currently appearing Cubchoo?
Because I caught one with stats for a rank 1 Beartic in Ultra League :(
Knowing Niantic prob not
Why is catching a ditto so hard
cause niantic hates us all
I hate it here
I’ll get over it soon, probably
mhm
Sorry to hear about the magikarp
What cp should my pokemon be in order to attempt legendary raids?
I’m not really that maxed yet but I use 2000+ cp Pokémon and usually does fine
2k+ is standard. I’ve leveled too quickly, so my mons are underpowered for my level.
Last daily exp update before I hit legacy 40
Almost there 
Been 26 days of work, But the end is near. Just gotta open gifts
You’re so close to leveling up good luck with the remaining xp grind
200k off now
I am so under powered
I’m almost lvl 40 and my strongest mon only has 3.3k normally, 3.4 with BF
Always time to raise CP anyway
Hope you got stardust stored up
I just caught a shiny Snorunt Christmas morning.
Better luck next time with future shinies though.
Sarahh gib luck
Good luck!
Ty sarah
Welcome
my christmas present to myself was grinding excellent throws all day so i could hit 40 a few days ahead of schedule :D
You will be able to catch one pretty easily in the Kanto tour event
Love your Noibat, it’s been up in my top favorite dragon types since Gen 7
There’s no way I’ll be able to hit level 40 in 5 days lmao
I’m like 2/3 through level 30
@paper reef rn i’m watching the part of xy where ash meets noibat and teaches it to fly and everything, so evolving this lil boi definitely felt like a big deal!
@main plover just keep playing the game the way you like to play it :) it’s a silly hat and a medal that no one else can see!
That’s true but I’m not even interested in the hat or the medal
I just want to get to level 35 or higher as soon as I can so that I can get invited to the b i g b o i raids
(Dialga, palkia, other extremely rare or hard to take down raid bosses)
Speaking of dialga and palkia, I hope they bring them back soon
I was aiming for lvl 40 also for that Gyrados hat but I’m almost lvl 34. It’s not physically possible even with every available method for exp rushed to it’s maximum potential for 24 hours straight no breaks for me to get lvl 40 no matter how hard I tried. Just enjoy the game at your own pace.
Kyogre & Groudon are coming back
i wasn’t sure i was going to make it but he regi raids + excellent catch bonus + friend xp took me from lv35 to 40 in just under 3 weeks
I know K&G are coming back and I’m glad because I need them
But we need dialga and palkia to come back
They’re some of, if not the best raid attackers for their respective types
@main plover you can get invited to raids at any level! i started raiding around lv27 using raid party
Oh I know that
shiny kyogre!!
Same but I still want a ton of kyogres
the only shiny i want
Shame the Genesect can’t be shiny though
Kyogre is my Sea Goddess Orca Whale.
that’s my bf with charizard haha
Ok doing stuff least one raid of all of them except for heatran
Btw how do people know if Genesect is shiny locked this time around? There’s no evidence it is yet or announced at all.
Let me get it rq
we did a ton of mega raids and now he goes into most lobbies with 6 charizards
I have a few Charizarda
Bring your attention to the part where it says ‘burn drive Genesect will not be available as shiny’
There’s no way that is accurate. The event isn’t even out yet.
yeah but the other legendaries were teased as having shinies
nothing similar was hinted for genesect
It’s not possible to data mine the game. This was a whole conversation we had here in chat like 3 weeks ago and some of the most experienced players in here said it’s not possible to cheat or get into the game.
I’ll believe it when it’s confirmed and official
Well actually wait..
Ircc they said it’s not possible to hack or modify the game but digging through code is different I believe.
So uh changing the subject a tad, what do y’all think the surprise mon will be? My bets are on either a kyurem fusion (most likely white) or keldeo
Okay I guess they can dig through code
I want a new Mecha Pokémon. I missed out on Mecha Mewtwo
they’ll never announce keldeo, you’ll just be clicking on an empty spot one day and bam he’s there
Maybe they’ll add Urshifu to the game
Doubt it
Mecha Urishifu I feel would be able to punch a hole straight through 3 mountains in a single punch.
Also, I was talking about this around a week ago, and I think these are the possible megas to be released, since there’s a new one coming out soon.
Diagonal crossed is in game and vertical is coming to the game?
No. If it’s crossed out at all it means it most likely won’t be coming this time around.
To put it into text form it’s:
Alakazam
Pinsir
Aerodactyl
Ampharos
Steelix
Scizor
Mawile
Aggron
Medicham
Manectric
Altaria
Lopunny
Audino
I would love a Mega Glalie. I just evolved it about 12 hours ago and I caught it as a Snorunt on Christmas morning.
I love those red eyes
My theory was that it won’t be released this time around, it’ll be saved for a winter event
Probably next Christmas or something
Mhm
Or next New Year
I think the kanto ones listed are the most possible because hype for go tour: kanto
Oh I forgot I caught Tentacool on Christmas Eve. I’ll have to give it some rare candies and evolve it right now. Brb
Neato
It’s loading
If JellyDoughnut fits I’m see if I can name it that
Damn, 1 character too long even with no spaces
Yeah but it’s a Jelly Fish and Jelly Doughnuts are tasty
JellyDonut
Have you not seen my list of shinies? A bit of them are based of food lol
Ooh that might work
Thank you for the workaround on the name. It’s perfect!
Now I’m just wondering what to name Glalie..
I’m thinking something along the lines of icecream related but I’m not sure
Maybe WhippedCream?
No.. way too long
But I want to shove one of these kind of thingys in it’s name some where ||✿ঌ♡メ⼮⊙|| so I might have to work around it.
Basically emojis but they aren’t
Ooh, SoftServe
I’ve got it!
⁂DeepFreeze⁂
It fits perfectly with those aggressive evil red eyes.
Thank you for helping me name them @main plover. Here’s some thanks rep.
🌺QueenSarah🌺 has given 1 'General Rep' to TheVagrant.
Oh. Thanks!
Oh btw, did you ever get the Event shiny Celebi?
I just need to hatch one more egg to finish the quest line
I know some people are still struggling getting it done.
Good luck! I hope you get a Hundo
Thanks!
I’m hoping to summon Ghost types with my new outfit.


There goes one haunting PepeoChicken. Okay well I’m ready for bed now. It’s about to be 3am and I am so tired
I've been trying to catch a ditto for 2 monthly now
Ah yes monthly auto correct what are you doing
I can smell the 12 trubbish

The audacity of this birb
The stats are ok ig but should I evolve it to a Bellossom or vileplume
Can we just take a moment to talk about vanillite catch rate? 4 ultra balls and 3 silver pinap berries and it broke out each time then ran
Yeah I haven’t put the effort to catching them.It’s Kinda of a waste of pokeballs
Imo
Right
I need a way to check raids near me
I got an 11/14/14 for my celebi. Not the worst
Got a 10/15/15 on my first mew though
So that was pretty neat
Congrats mate! Though this is PoGo general, I think you’re looking for #shiny_hunters
Hey guys, since I’m about to hit legacy 40, I was wondering, would any of you guys be interested in a fast leveling guide written by me?
I know. I just got sword recently so I was just excited. I’m only on the pogo tabs since I’m on pogo all the time so I just posted here
Np mate, congrats!
Thanks
Any tips on how to get excellent throws?
Yes actually
You have a few ways of getting consistent excellents, 1: timing, everything is timing. You need to wait until the last possible great throw to get excellent.
Size & distance: aim for bigger targets or far away ones to get excellent throws
Practice is most important,
Also
Gg. @sturdy kraken
Nice
Man, I don't know if I can keep up.
Only on lvl 32, Team Mystic camping gyms near my house. I'm at my limit
I'm close to 37 currently
250+
You have 15 mil exp to go mate
Were you tryna by to get to 40 before the end of the year?
Ag
Was lvl 4 when I got back for Shiny Meltan.
I'm at least happy I got to 30 and above.
But other teams camping gyms 24/7, it's exhausting my resources.
Which, in a way, is kind of good, since I need room for more items.
Oh... you mean that?
Yes
Just pull out someone else's handy dandy magic plastic
I was level 35 december 2nd
I would have to go and buy one, and the nearest place that has one of those would be in Midtown Manhattan.
Which I can't do, since I'm on vacation...plus...||I had to get tested again...for Covid||.
So I'm screwed.
Ah
Question has Aron ever had a community day,spotlight hour,spawn increase,etc?
Same thing happened with me sort of
nope, none at all
would be nice for a spotlight hour tho 
Also, @tardy loom @bleak merlin thanks
Omega Galaxy has given 1 'General Rep' to Nazarenus.
Thanks @bleak merlin
You gave General Rep too recently. You will be able to rep again in 5 minutes and 10 seconds.
Lol

Any other pogo discord servers ?
Message has an invite!
bruh
Well, anyways check the link above, it's our announcements here we have a fwendly server affiliate, or something like that for pogo 
Boy I can’t wait for mega aggron
How do u get that mega energy kindA circles around youre character?
You need to have a mega Pokémon active
Ahh ok thank you!
As far as PVP goes, there's the GO Stadium server. I'm sure there's also servers for the major GO Youtubers. There's also The Silph Road.
I don't have server links (this server's rules), but I'm sure you can find them on the Internet. 🙂
Deciding which one is best. Just a difference between the mask is all.
I’m thinking the Sabeleye one looks better but I’m not too sure.
But the Bannete mask matches my Aqua Bandana
For now I might go with Bannete and swap it if I feel it doesn’t look right.
banette for me too 
Does anyone have tips for catching a ditto or evolving a magikarp?
Bruh wait u have to wait for giavonni at 12 to 6
wdym?
There was recently a magikarp event where they appeared a lot so u kinda missed out on the best way
Other than that u just gotta be patient
darn
And there's only certain Pokemon that can be ditto
Idk what they are rn but I have 2 ditto
Is there a way to know if its a ditto before hand or is it like a shiny basically
Nope usually it's harder to catch I beleive
oh geez
Im just tryna get this mew
When u catch it instead of saying gotcha it says oh?
Ohhh I see
Yee mew is a great mon
Yeah also once I finish mythical discovery I'll get more research cus rn thats the only one available to me
But due the this Christmas event rn these mons might be hard to find atm
Lucaskurosaki has given 1 'General Rep' to Crimson Knight12.
I'm hoping to unlock the victini or jirachi research
Idk if it’s visible
Are u sure that's not old?
Probably not nvm
I transferred my shiny celebi to shield already
When do the regice raids end again?
image is also in the pins
Oh I didn't see haha, thank you!
Mfw spamming greatballs at this one Achamo that refuses to be caught
It's gonna be raining all day tomorrow here in los Angeles so of I manage to buy a few passes I'll be able to do some weather boosted alolan raichus 
I’m just 2 raids away from getting the legacy 40 hat.
27 days of grinding and now, I’m on the last step
you got this 
Yeah, just 2 more raids to go! I'm probs just gonna do 2 tier 1 raids and be done
I’m still Trainer Level 29 and I want to know if it’s better to save it or just catch it now
The Celebi that is
so 
Taking on Giovanni for the first time
I haven’t even tried yet cause I know I’m gonna get wrecked
you've got this doro
Giovanni abused my team the first time. He's so strong
hariyama and glaceon carried my giovanni today
My shiny giratina kicked mewtwo’s arse
I think it was dragonite, Melmetal and giratina to take him on
i used hariyama, glaceon and another one, used both charged attacks with hari on persian so he would waste his shields and glaceon charge attacks just 1shot mewtwo
It scales to you level
You got this
Melmetal with thundershock 
I’m not powering up my melmetal for the time being. I’m working on making a lucky shiny melmetal and lucky shiny beldum
@runic socket also! DO NOT PURIFY SHADOW MEWTWO
And lose the glorious 20% shadow boost?
I don't use it now so I'm not going to lose anyting lol. It's sub 1k CP
You’re posting this because it’s controversial but go off lol
Any other ios user having a hard time with redeeming any niantic reward?
Keep getting a, “something went wrong” message
What was controversial? What did I miss?
I haven’t tried to redeem any niantic rewards yet
Wait why not purify it 
I must free it from the pain it endured as a shadow mon
@runic socket shadow bonus gives 20% more damage

just loses 20% defense
but shadow mewtwo
is literally better than a 100% mewtwo
so never purify it
I did too, but that’s usually with signing in with google. It worked when I signed it with fb
The pros of purification outweigh the cons.
Yes, shadow Pokémon take more damage, but their damage output overcomes their flaw.
If you get another shadow mewtwo than purify the worse one if you want
Shadow bonus is a free weather boost basically, on top of an actual weather boost
Everyone so wise
Mine had 2 stars with attack that could be better
But im putting my candies on it since I only have that one
Still gonna purify my Mewtwo. "Strong Pokemon. Weak Pokemon. That is only the selfish perception of people."
I’m gonna make mine my best buddy!
I already taught it psystrike
Well enjoy then. Shadow mewtwo is great for PVE
What game is that quote from Chris? That just sent me back.
Congrats on the Mewtwo. I’m still working to get mines 
Thanks, and good luck! It’s not hard, just time consuming
Hosting 3 mega raids (2 gengars, 1 charizard) check active raids
For anyone that is on my friends list, after a long week and a half I’m finally at the park stocking up on gifts to send out for all of you. Hope you enjoy!
Oof i must add u then. I love trading gifts
It's from Karen in the Johto Pokemon League
Time to dust off my Facebook
Also Chris thanks for that throwback quote lol
@floral tusk you’re here

Gotta find your friend code
Lol
Nvm I ended it. It’s not like it was completable solo anyways since it was a 3 star and I had bad type matching
Sarah i saw it too late 
It’s all good. I ended it with like 15 mins left before it was done but it’s long over now.
i need to catch 3 whismur to progress my jirachi quest 😒
hey guys I need 2 urgent friends to finish 3 delibird quests! my code is at #pogo_friend_codes I would love if you guys could help me out
3426 4908 8725
Looking to evolve my machoke
you're only able to trade with people who are close to your location irl unfortunately
Another thing, once you trade the Pokémon it can’t be traded anymore.
Thank you @bleak canopy
Gibble has given 1 'General Rep' to NotErick.
Thank you @upper mirage
You gave General Rep too recently. You will be able to rep again in 1 minute and 20 seconds.


Soon
Soon
So it’s pokemon’s 25th anniversary next year and PoGo’s 5th anniversary. I smell a special event or two of some kind..
Anyone figured out the surprise pokemon arriving next month?
Because I sure haven't.
I hope with everything in me it's Cosmog.
I doubt it would be a Gen 7 mon when we just started rolling out Gen 6 but I'm not known for my intelligence and detective work so who knows
probably mega diance
That sounds like it now that you mention it.
bruh too early for gen 7 legendaries when not even finished with gen 4 myths
I’m not sure if you’re referencing the cosmog or diancie comment.
Diancie was a mythical from Gen 6 though
rip Shaymin, Keldeo and Meloetta from gen 4 and 5
Arceus as well. Phione and Manaphy to boot
I’m convinced they’re never going to add it and they like how upset not having kecleon makes us
Hello
hewwo
yoo one more level
11**
@steady acorn pretty poggers
Aimee has given 1 'General Rep' to CapZ.

You gave General Rep too recently. You will be able to rep again in 3 minutes and 18 seconds.
GFDI


anyone playing the holiday cup?
Congrats mate! You can make it to Legacy 40! Just gotta earn 2.5 mil today and tomorrow!
lol people are expecting too much for that surprise raid boss.
won't be surprised if it will be "just" the legendary doggos since it will be during the Johto week and you can't fight Giovanni as for now if you are a newer player except that one fight against shadow mewtwo,
or some boss we already had. maybe regigigas.
Heya what does xl candy do?
it's used in order to power pokemon past level 40
You only get it when you hit lvl 40
I hope you get to 40 in these last 3 days. Good luck!
Good luck! He needs about 2.5 mil in 2 days now
Is shiny Starly in PoGo at all? I have a Staraptor already but I’ve been hoping to eventually get lucky and find a shiny starly.
Omg I just did my first raid and I got the Pokémon I’m so happy rn
Sorry that’s off topic- I’m just really happy
Congrats!
Lol thanks!

Congrats!
🎊🎉
im finally not feeling like death but of course i missed regice because of covid, so cool
ouch mate... you all right?
yea im better now, it just took me out pretty bad for 4 days
Anyone catch a bunch of shiny snovers?
nah did you
No :/ I was hoping to tho
i can try!
If you make it you will unlock the quest for the Gyrados hat which I’m very jealous of.
I’m at the park playing PoGo, I just ate Sonic for lunch, and then I need to head across town for my weekly allergy clinic shots.
I’ll talk later. Good luck!

i just got one shiny snover
rng sucks, never had luck with shinies and never will
I know you can do it, keep it up!
na didn't happen, the snover i got wasn't even from the spotlight hour, caught it in christmas
apparently they changed the wording for the genesect raid thingo
but
i still don't think it'll be shiny yet tbh

Wait spotlight hour?
Did it have a higher shiny chance or something? I just came back to pogo like a week ago and i felt back then we only had community days
Spotlight hours only have increased spawns, like almost community day spawn like, but the shiny rates are kinda the normal ones
and usually bonuses like double stardust, exp, candy
depends on the day
spotlight hours are always on tuesdays at 6pm in your local time
I gave you all my good luck apparently because I’ve been having shit go wrong all day since I said that. Gib some back plez lol
Someone invited me to a alolan raichu raid and by the time I bought the remote passes and tried to join it said no groups found 😭
So uhh how does giovanni radar work
you just have to keep walking/driving around to diff pokestops until its actually him
Whats the chance it isnt a grunt and if i hit the grunt i dont lose radar right
@jade mulch if it’s not him you won’t lose it
you can take it XD
Ah thanks, it's been slowly coming back. I think I snuck some back already lol. Keep enough to lvl up! 😄
Ok game i stop
When you finally have a lot of raid passes but raids are dead around you and nobody is hosting

I've saving coins for Ho-Oh and such coming next month 
same
you're not allowed one clearly
did u see my photo i sent
above
i learned dig

Woah!! That would be super cool if we could see the stops and gyms from ground level and they were all just massively tall digital towers.
And also goodnight.
Goodnight to you too sarah 
Oh really how comes
It's attack is boosted since it's a shadow pokemon.
The shadow boost is so drastic that it’s actually stronger than a hundo mewtwo.
It basically has a permanent weather boost
Well at least he can use it for the master league
Yeah I guess
Found this little dude today and it had better stats then most of my com day piplups
Also this is why I asked for tips of excellent throws
Lots of mons are easy to get excellent throws, you just need to nanab berry them
Snover and Stantler are easy excellent throw material
[Message Link](#pogo_discussion message) to #pogo_discussion
Yeah the deer with bells makes it a lot easier but when I’m at 2/3 I freak out and I fail the last one
Stantler
How much time left? I’m finishing a trade right now
About 25 minutes
Sweet I’ll be done and can zoom over
Oh wait nvm I can’t my mons are dead
I have no revives from the regi weekend

I was grinding on kyurem and got a lot hahaha
Perfect time to test out my garchomp named LANDSHARKKKK 
Well I'm gonna start it in a few if you can join or not please let me know to invite you or not!
I've also found 2 shiny piplups during the holiday spawns... Kind of a mixed feeling about it since we JUST had the community day... Would rather have had luck on some of the other spawns 
^fr I sometimes wonder,like what would have happened if I tapped on the torchic first instead of the piplup would it have been shiny or would both not have been shiny makes me wonder
@paper reef IM NOT GONNA MAKE IT 
For 3 excellent throws in a row just go for 3 stantler cuz easy compared to rest cuz massive circles
The only time I did that mission was during my rush to legacy 40. Most of my throws ended up being excellent throws because I was rushing so hard
Just hit level 26, so yeah, I’m pretty cool 😎
Congrats!
I mean compare the excellent range weedle vs stantler, one has much more leeway
I’m going to make it to Lvl 40 before the end of the year, I’m so close lol
I can only dream
I just saw the New Years Items in the Holiday section of the clothing shop and they should add more masks. I want the Trio of Balls as masks such as PokéBall, GreatBall, & UltraBall.
Ahh I keep messing up the finale reindeer excellent throw
Don’t worry! You only have about 15.5 million to go! You can do it in a day!
Wait what task is this
Holy crap
Imagine using light theme for discord 
Anyone
I wish pokemon go had a mechanic where you could turn in like 5 shiny to get an item to turn any pokemon shiny
Anyone
Sorry Tanaka, I'm done with kyurem until it goes black
I have no pokeballs but a smeargle wants me to catch it
Okay then no kyruem raid for anyone
Open gifts from friends?
No gifts 😤
Hope for 10 reds
Your friend code isn't in #pogo_friend_codes
I can't send you a gift
Should I buy bag space or pokespace only ome
@pallid slate i posted there, was like two weeks ago
oh well it didnt come up in search, i guess they clear out

Woah that’s me

Anyone up for a mega raid?
Is regice gone now?
Wow I’m really slow
Tbh I saw that a couple of times and never even realized the date they left or came
It's the only one I did get
Think there’s any chance I get to 40 within like 27 hours lol
Heck yeah if you just get excellent throws and legend raids probably
Or if you play all day
I don’t have remote passes or money to spend on it
Wish we had known about the legacy 40 thing a couple months back
Would’ve been grinding the entire time
maybe be close to a poke stop and spin it for pokeballs while catching Pokémon that spawn there
I live right on a stop but that won’t be enough. It’s annoying that they stopped giving out free remote passes every week. It wouldn’t get me to 40 but I’d def be closer
For me, it took 8 days to go from 39 ->40
I took a break day, so it’s technically 9
So yeah, very, very unlikely, sorry mate
yeah 5 mil in one day would be insane
youd have to have a bunch of friends saved up for xp and spam raids with eggs lol
i still think that would be impossible tho
I mean, 25 best friends on 1 lucky egg = 5 mil easy
That’d require 250 raids in a single day
That’s only if they do remote raids. The price drops slightly if it’s a mix of remote and in-person raids due to the box
I barely pulled off legacy 40, and it took me 26 days to hit it, from level 35. 8-9 days were dedicated to level 39->40
dope
Omg
Congrats Omega!
Finally!
Ooooh
i feel so happy for you and also bad for the amount of pain you must have went through
either way niceeee
