Yep that’s the only thing to do
Ah okay there's no special research right?
Ah just field got it
@charred rapids ^^^
ty 
I need the field research catch 20 luvdisc because I can’t find alomomola
And I’m not doing a raid for it
wow catch 20 luvdisk quest seems incredibly rare, every single alomomola quest in my suburb and the neighbouring one is win 2 raids -_-
at least managed to dodge doing an umbreon raid as i had a spare encounter in my field research stack, might be worth double checking if you recall claiming umbreon field research rewards from a few weeks back
in painful quantities of 10km eggs in the past
and the feebas event that happened sometime in the past year or years
I finally got the win 2 raid alomomla
Why is that Pokémon’s name so hard to pronounce geez I get so confused spelling that Pokémon’s name
it likes to flex on the tongue. Make you tongue tied
Yeah kinda makes me brain dead for a while as well
My newest cute outfit
When was someone gonna tell me I could DODGE during a raid battle
You can’t. It just moves you around and changes your placement
No you can dodge attacks
I try not to do it too much since I’m pretty sure others can see you running around and I don’t want to annoy them
It’s not dodging
It is I kid yoy not
It’s literally just moving around
Nope
If it is dodging then that would be nice I guess
It's a dodge. If you do it and time it to the attack of the enemy
Or just spam and hope
So it doesn’t dodge all attacks, just the special ones?
Yes
Okay
Sometimes normal if your very good special
I just never knew it was a feature till my pokemon started sliding to the left then cha cha'd real smooth
It's not a guaranteed thing so i usually only do it for specials because otherwise it wastes time
Well that’s cool to know I guess. I didn’t like moving around because I thought others could see me and I didn’t want to annoy people by jumping in front of them blocking their view from inside their pokemon.
Plus I hate it when I accidentally slide to the side when attacking
Can others see it cause if so I just looked like a muppet in a latias fight
lol
Big ass godzilla looking mofo hopping around the stadium
Pfft i don't think others can see
Phew
I've never seen anyone else move
EYYYY free raid pass tomorrow and pokeballs LETS GOOO
We get more free passes tomorrow???
= )
has 5 but no raids
Ok so I finally got a shiny Latias and Named it OJ for orange Juice now I need a shiny latios and name it mint because those two things go well together
Crimson Knight our personal news source for all things pogo
No flippin way Orange Juice actually fits I just abbreviated it but this is better!
im more of a fan of orange juice and toothpaste
If toothpaste was orange then I would have named Latias toothpaste
Dude ORANGE FLAVORED TOOTHPASTE
Damn you stole both my ideas for my next set of shinies if I got them
I was going go stick with OJ and mess around with symbols and Minty Fresh for the other
You should name them Minty Fresh & Orange Juice lol. A perfect name combo but a horrible irl flavor combo.
how long does a mon last in a gym if no ones attacks it?
also is umbreon good in GL?
A mon will stay in a gym until someone knocks it out
As for umbreon, its good in GL but it’s recommended to have last resort as one of its moves, which is currently an exclusive move
Zekrom and Reshiram can be coke and mentos
For some reason, shiny latios has always reminded me of colgate toothpaste so I called it as such XD
Quick heads up This Tuesday our spotlight hour Pokémon is Luvdisc
This Spotlight hour will be great for the field research catch 20 luvdisc to get Alomomola
I just want one shiny feebas 
I just saw the collection list. Niantic is frustrating me with these.
Do you know what time Tuesday? I’m going to my dads house to stay the night so I want to know if I’ll be able to do it.
@karmic raven
spotlight hour always 6-7
Ah cool. I didn’t know that. Thanks.
is there an easy way to find whimsurs ?
if they nest, probably a whismur nest. otherwise just need to hope for it to pop via weather boost. issue is event spawns pretty much drown out everything else
All of these events are so confusing x.x
easy there buddy and spin some stops
I don't have data
I am confined to my house
Legit my only source of balls is gifts and the daily box
That's why I'm angry
What are the counters.to.giovanno
imagine lucky 100% shadow mewtwo
in the past it could 

Guys I need some help me and my bro are lucky friends should we do a trade now or should we wait for mewtwo and trade mewtwo (we both don’t have mewtwo rn) but if we wait we can’t take advantage of increased lucky trades either way I’m gonna pier up my shadow mewtwo tho
@ivory bough i mean you could wait but do u both have any shiny legends?
We both have shiny ho oh and I have shiny groudon and he has kyogre but u don’t think he wanna trade it
But the thing is I feel I’m still gonna power up my shadow tho
Even if I get a lucky so idk
That’s why I was asking is it worth it to wait or just trade
Actually if u evolve a eevee rn it will get last resort
Are you sure about that? I thought it will be possible only at the Kanto Tour
Thats what i saw on reddit
Should be in shop today
I haven’t seen it yet but got this from a remote raid discord server
Yep Every Monday we get a 1 pokecoin bundle
Thank you
Within an hour from now im going to be level 36 never have I been more excited in my life for a level up in a game
Nice
Not long now till pokemon news on the main line games
Should I Mac out my shiny shadow beldum? Thinking of using it in PVE
Pve?
So how do I get Lucky friend status? I keep trading with my alts but I’m not sure if it’s from trading or exchanging gifts.
It’s from Both
Oh awesome
Its from any interaction with a other person: trading, gifts or raiding.
But just the first interaction each day would trigger Lucky friends
any alomomola raid happening? pls @ me :)
Ive got a latios if your down
Only have 1 pass and need alomomola
Welp
Whoops wrong place
Guess who just failed to catch Latios after 13 throws.
guess who has 7 2* latias 
Guess who failed latios due to its losing animation taking forever to happen
Nah jk I don’t even know if their losing affect actually takes time away
Try restarting your game
Dang I started evolving everything I could and ended up being 40k away from leveling up
Damn thats unlucky got any ultra friends like friends who are close to lvling up ?
Yeah but the thing is I started opening present from all it friends and forgot their was a limit to the presents we can open
there are ???
it's 20 gifts a day usually, depending on the event it has been 40 as well
oh wow i never knew that
For the pandemics we can open like 30 gifts
if they do pidgey CD
If its pidgey CD it better have triple catch dust 
it looks like fletchling 
I HOPE its Fletchling
It matches fletchling’s foot more than anything else 
Community days have a habit of following a pattern of using Pokémon with a 3rd stage evolution. Using electabuzz, magmar, roselia etc. still made their 1st stages available through eggs.
Doduo
Starly
Tailow
Fletchling
Pidgey
are what people are guessing
ill take any other then Pidgey xd
It’s not starly, has three toes and taillow is the same, not doduo only evolves once
It’s either fletchling which is my guess because the print is so compact where pidgey has large feet
Im 99% sure its Fletchling
Hope so, new shiny! And it's nice and orange too
Me trying to guess this next CD:
Pidove 
If it’s pidove I’m throwing my phone
can finally turn my hundo pidgey into a L50 beast 😂
Well if the footprints are an indication, 80% of those guesses are already excluded 
Fletchling or pidgey
Its fletchli... oh wait
The fact people have made memes this fast about it 
Can I post something to do with pokemon foot prints?
The foot prints look damn close to pidove
Just to clarify here, the special quest "A Mythical Discovery" will give me a normal Mew encounter at the end, right?
Yes @fallen junco
Thanks @analog steeple
Is the Shiny Celebi event permanent or does it leave soon?
I still have it available which is why I ask. (At least I think I do)
I think it’s permanent now that you have it 
But you gotta grab Jesse and James before they leave
I think they're removing it at the end of the month because they're removing the rocket balloons
either way, get it done before march
Did they already leave? How am I able to grab them? Can you talk me through it so I can blast through it?
balloons spawn every 12am/6am/12pm/6pm daily
I'm playing for the first time since like 2016. A lot has changed but I've gone from level 12 to 20 in the past few days
What quest are you on? What part? The fighting Jessie and James one ?
Oh dear, time gated?
check then, if you're lucky it's a meowth, but it's rare
I'm on catching grass pokemon and evolving grass pokemon "Distracted by something shiny"
New event just announced!
Problem is it's raining and snowing here 
like sometimes i takes like 10 balloons before i get one meowth
it's sooo appropriate haha
don't need to leave the house for the balloon 🙂 they spawn where you are and follow you around. once they spawn, you have 20 minutes to do it before they despawn
But I need to get through more of the quests I am currently on for them to count?
which page of the quest are you on? meowth balloon is on the last page (3)
yeah you need to finish that first, grass type is hard with the current event
might want to try getting some field research with grass type rewards e.g. the non event send 3 gifts = roselia
I have some oddish too I might be able to evolve
At least that will take care of half of it
But this event, the one with the grass pokemon and the team rocket balloons, is the shiny celebi quest?
yes
Cant wait to start using this tomorrow
correct, you're on the first page, 2nd page was buddy related from memory, meowth is ont he 3rd page
STEP 1 OF 4
Transfer 10 Pokémon (20 Ultra Balls)
Catch 10 grass-type Pokémon (Nuzleaf encounter)
Evolve 3 grass-type Pokémon (Cottonee encounter)
STEP 2 OF 4
Play with your buddy 10 times (1 Poffin)
Take a snapshot of a grass-type Pokémon (Combee encounter)
Give your buddy 10 treats (Cherubi encounter)
STEP 3 OF 4
Defeat Jessie or James 4 times (5 Max Revives)
Make 5 great curveball throws (Hoothoot encounter)
Hatch 3 eggs (Whimsicott encounter)
that's the quest list, page 4 is just claim your prizes and celebi
Entirely possible to do.
You said balloons are at what times again? Are Jessie and James easy to defeat?
it's every 6 hours starting at 12
but it's not that it spawns at 12 exactly, it'll pop when you login after that time
Is that for every time zone?
its following your time zone
okay
jessie's scyther is annoying but otherwise they're not too hard, i did it on an alt pretty ok
so to get the 4 wins = 2 meowth balloons
Should I try to power up a fire type pokemon then?
rock types work as well, but tbh you can burn two at the first one and the last two are ekans and stantler which isn't hard
i'd wait until you get the encounter before powering, you might have something usuable already, it's ok to lose and retry on these
yeah, you can retry it as many times as you want as long as you don't lose the spawn
Is there any way I can get grass pokemon to be attracted to me at all? Or I just gotta get lucky?
lucky...if you have the right weather grass types may be more likely to spawn
but i literally haven't seen any grass types atm outside of field research in this event
or if you happen to have a nest with grass type spawns that'll be the easiest
What on earth is a nest?
it's a spot that spawns a lot of the same pokemon
usually tends to be parks e.g. a reserve near my place is a scyther nest, scyther everywhere there lol. they rotate around so you get different things
....I have a lot to learn. Jeez. Thank you for trying to help me. I will check back in later if I have more questions. Can I add you for gifting perchance too?
I am also. I'm working on Kantonian pokemon and going for walks now myself. I want that Shiny Mew x.x
Celebi, Jirachi, and Mew are three of my favorite legendaries.
I had no idea Celebi was available already.
Sent
Yeah you can get normal and shiny celebi atm
From the same event?
separate, the normal celebi will always be there, that might need to be unlocked from something else though
Ah, it's unlocked after the third "A Mythical Discovery" quest
For the normal one.
I will work on getting the shiny one for right now.
MaskedAquakitty your right it is fletchling
Just was that recent pogo post and the only bird from the Kalos region that resembles those footprints is fletchling
Who wanna do some GL battles? Wanting to show off some spice and test out a new pokemon i got
pidove also is quite close as is the dragon fluffy dragon pokemon forget its name
Also how long till the trio return ??
Which trio
Kanto
next week i think due to the kanto event
Doesn't the event start on the 20th?
probably whenever the event starts yeah
Woooo
Best of five?
Oof rip im not able to anymore
i could another time if that sounds good
dont have magnezone built for the GL but i do have magneton built
Fletchling line shiny for CD reference
I mean at least it’s a new shiny, and it’s an okay of a Pokémon, still not comm day worthy but better than roselia 
would have preferred unova starters 
They really need to start doing them like how they used to, nothing was wrong with the starters, some people hated them? That’s fine people hate these ones too it’s a lose lose, the starters with pseudo’s and a couple of spice is more preferable than shines that have been out for years and a flame chicken.
Kalos pokemon don’t have shiny forms yet. That’s probably fake
It’s possible though I guess
nope it's in the datamine already, as well as incinerate
Interesting
and niantic tweeted that the CD pokemon was gonna be from Kalos
Hint: The Pokémon to be featured during March #PokemonGOCommunityDay was first discovered in the Kalos region! 🤫
126
1863
I’d like some Starter shinies
Checking that out now, brb
Lol I love this in the comments of the tweet,
bidoof comm day when
Hi Des
Hey Sarah
I’m about to fall asleep but I sensed a disturbance in the #pogo_discussion force and knew someone was typing. lol
Goodnight
I’m 20k off from level 36 but some of my friends who are about to level up haven’t opened my gifts
one moe catch
Finally lvl 36 and Now people open their gifts :/
😐
So fletching is confirmed for the CD now?
oh legit?
Mhmm 50 mins direct
Oh most likely we will probs see some pkmn unite fake yay and then possibly some botw2 and maybe a personal pokemon announcement for a separate stream for the anniversary
honestly cant wait for 25th anniversary
I'm capping all expectations and just hoping it's something fun
How can I catch grass type Pokémon fast?
Uhhhhh how many do u need and whats your like limits or movement
do u think 60 raids is enought for a shiny mewtwo
It should be, but it can be over odds. Usual legendary odds are 1 in 20.
For the valintes day event, how am I supposed to get Umbreon, Latias, and Latios?
Raids
Well no, that’s definitely not advised
There’s raid channels though below this one you can probably keep an eye on, or if you have local chats
I see, thank you!
What is the chance of getting a legend spawn from go battle league? Just made it to rank 20 not sure if I should push it.
:/
@flint wind i haven’t tried to do that very much but have gotten 1 before !
ooo
3x xp pog
yay x3 catch xp
too bad fletchling is pretty hard to excellent at least for me
Yea I wanted to say that too that I just received the notification
Hope they make it easier to catch during the comm day lol
that would be noice
They probably will as always
@rotund totem ping me back if you wanna battle ill be available for a while
Yep im ready
Id rather practice for today then lose big playing gbl when tired
@lucid frigate
Sent
Do you lose anything losing gbl?
u have a limited amount of runs every day so just that
If youre rank 20 or above you do lose elo which is how you climb ranks above rank 20
Oh ok
o yea
I still have a long way till rank 20 so im okay
Accepted the fr and sent gift
Ready to battle
Alr sending battle request
Gg the team played out so much worse than i thought 
Imma change teams
Yeah lol
Catch rates are usually boosted for CDs
Gg
Alr man thanks for the battles @lucid frigate
UprisingCanadian has given 1 'General Rep' to Naturn3.
Thanks you too @rotund totem
Naturn3 has given 1 'General Rep' to UprisingCanadian.
well his atk is good i guess
obviously still gonna keep him
dunno if he'll be useful in battle tho
milotic is decent- wish love cup was still on ngl
only one star but that star is in attack so im sure i can make it work
i pushed so hard in that with ariados scrafty seaking walk
noice
now im back to ultra league- im working on making a team
welp i got a hundo
pog-
ayyyy
rip cp tho ngl
how long have yall been playing?
my hundos are shiny celebi venusaur and houndoom- havent had much hundo luck and im at lvl 31
started december 20th lol
since january 2019
im sorta new but i have been sweatin a lot
i've been here since launch lmao. i fell out of it for a long while tho
i sorta regret giving my sister a shiny cresselia in sword- i think she might link trade it for some hacked garbage...
still brings back memories when i look at my chansey (now blissy), vaporeon and magikarp(now gyarados) from 2016. turns out they had high ivs.
vaporeon especially absolutely shreds.
mhm
i think she might transfer to pogo lol
you guys have a favorite buddy?
not yet- ive been with goldeen the magikarp
but before that was tyranitar and before that alolan sandshrew (now slash)
ive been trying to raise joy, that blissey, but blissey just.... isnt a battler.
oof-
tis the nature of a blissey.
should i work on my hundo venasaur or my hundo houndoom
which would be of the betters
no idea
both are pretty noice
i have a decent iv shadow houndoom, hope to do something with that eventually
noice
rn my buddy is my shadow mewtwo. which honestly, looks really really intimidating.
i sorta gave up on pushing my shadow mewtwo ngl
like, im not sure who's in charge here xD
he's got almost perfect atk and the other stats dont matter too much
noice
i just spam rare candies lol
honestly im just waiting for the next shadow tm event so i can get a shadow mewtwo with psystrike.
mine has frustration too lol
lol
Tapped on a few hundred Luvdisc, not a single shiny.
I was never here lol
lek
Was more worried about the XP, only gained 250,000 
oh hey its si-
DROWNING IN LUVDISC
At least you gained xp I fell asleep during spotlight hour
Our last Spotlight hour for this month will be pikachu with a 2x catch candy
Not participating 
Wow pikachu, that’s a very creative and new pokemon to feature
Omg pikachu spotlight hour?? Holy cow I’m in 
I’m gonna check pikachus but only for the chance of some shinies since I don’t have a shiny pikachu
Does anyone happen to know if me taking care of meowth balloons before I'm on that step of the Celebi quest will earn me the points for that part of the quest?
It wont so youll have to do it when youre on the step
Then there need to be more grass pokemon X.X
Hey just a question about team rocket balloons can i get one to spawn anytime of the day or just during the daytime when raids are available
Rocket balloons show up 4 times a day, 6am, 6pm, 12am and 12pm.
But if your game is off they’ll appear the moment you open the app, let’s say you open it at 5, you’ll get the one from 12 and have another an hour later at 6.
Ohhhhh ok i see that helps thanks
Also if i dont fight the balloon how long does it take to reset to a different member
Balloons linger around for about 15-20 minutes, then they’ll disappear and you’ll have to wait the 6 hours for the next.
It will be the same grunt for the whole 15-20 minute process.
So it wont change to a different member in the time
No
What about if im looking for the leader Giovanni
Giovanni is guaranteed in the balloons if you have a super radar
Ok cause im using that right now but it gave me jessie ans james balloon
Jessie and James are a special case.
The next time you see a normal rocket balloon you’ll have Giovanni.
is the kanto event playable from home
like spend the first 5 hours out then spend the last 7 at home
it should be enough to complete the ditto research. that should be a relatively short quest
and a lot of the spawns will be on incense
what do u think wont be on the incense
this has which pokemon have a high chance on incense for each version
ight
but will other pokemon definitely be on the insence
coz theres not that many on the lists
Wow this channel is dead

Was asking for help on a latios and nobody replied for over 10 mins so i deleted my comments
A lot of folks have already raided latios. It’s been in raids over a week 
But sometimes channels do be quiet
Im lvl 25 and way too weak to be able to beat it
Max cp pokemon i have is a espeon at 2138 or something like that
Wow a 56k mega ampharos is just down the street from me
i havent played POGO since like 2016 or whenever it first came out - is it hard to complete these events? Im interested in getting shinies to trade over to SWSH
They usually have a day where a certain Pokémon’s shiny rate is boosted
As far as events themselves they aren’t too bad. Raids will always need some help though unless it’s super weak
I came back during the celebi thing and have enjoyed it 
Well considering that some of the gym hatched pokemon almost require all 8 ppl
Like the mega ampharos i have now would probably be a 8 person unless there are some hard carries out there
have they improved pokemon spawn rates? i remember it was really hard to find pokemon unless youre in a public place
I’m in a big city so can’t really attest to spawn rates 
Since mine have always been.... good 
Pretty much same
Mine arnt really good tho only the raids usually
Ooh 22k espeon
When that kyogre groudon event happened a few weeks ago i missed out i tried asking for help but same situation nobody wanted to help😂
Are shiny rates really high during events?
Ah, yes
That looks so satisfying not gonna lie
and yellow can be a shiny magikarp
Fletching will be shiny unlocked or whatever when the comm day comes right?
yep
Someone have an raid coming
Is there a way to increase the chances of getting grass type pokemon? I am really trying to do the Team Rocket event for the shiny Celebi before Celebi is gone at the end of the month.
Just keep huntin- the only common grass type atm is cottonee (always is-). You can use incense, but bulbasaur spawns should be up in a few days, so you'll probably find more grass mons soon. No grass mons in this event.
You can use mossy lure
but thats only if ur near a pokestop
I dont have any mossy lures. Only the normal lures for pokestops. I've been basically jumping up if there are footprints for grass types - I've caught a chespin and a turtwig because of this.
But I've only found 3 grass pokemon in 3 days. I've leveled from 12 to 21 in that time... so it's not from lack of trying XD
how many incense u have? if you have a one hour break then feel free to do somethin else why checking an incense
I'll keep at it. Hopefully I can catch everything and beat Jessie/James before the Celebi event ends.
I've been doing that a bit. But not a ton of incense left.
oki- gl! this event isnt best for grass, i believe it would be better once kanto tour comes
You will be able to complete it at the Kanto event, you will get tons of grass encounters by then
mhm- i can already imagine bellsprouts and bulbasaurs in abundance
And you think kanto tour will let me beat the Celebi shiny event while going for the platinum kantonian medal?
I really want to finish that dex so all I need to do is walk, spin, and level. Instead of hunt for specific mons for the shiny mew as I go
i think you can do it, save coins from gyms for the event
Well, you will have to catch 30 of each type anyways so.. xD
I'm doing okay on that.
Cool thing about living where I do is we have all kinds of weather XD
Yall I'm stuck do I evolve shiny feebas or 3 star good iv feebas
Shiny is too pretty to ignore
Ended*
Man this Valentine's Collection is kicking my ass
oh yea i get XL candies now
You see you make an amazing point if only my shiny wasn't half the cp of my good feebas
Painnn
Congrats!
Well it isn’t like your good feebas is a hundo or anything. And I believe milotic isn’t that useful in this game so I’d go with the shiny if you really like that Pokémon
Fair points I'll see if I can get ebough candies and power him up
I’m getting close to having a best friend.
His cp tho
lolll
When you shiny hunt in pokemon go because you have higher odds
100% my strat for legends and community day Pokemon
So is it tomorrow or Saturday the birds n mewtwo return?
Saturday
Intrtesting
Or at least I thought they come out on kanto day
Yea they come on Saturday
mhm
Today is the final day for the valentines celebration
ooo-
kanto tour in two days tho lol
Hey guys, anyone got umbreon or alomola?
Name it Munchie Man / Gal if it’ll fit lol
Frustration event
@brittle pagoda @flint wind @stuck hollow i know you guys were all talking about shadow m2 with frustration recently, there's an event for it sunday
oooo! got my elite charged tm ready
Just got this from pokemon go battle league
ooo noice- i got a hundo bulbasaur from it once
Its my second hundo from GBL
The other was an oshawott
I have it as a dewott rn
I might try and power it up to use in the GL
As its actually ranked #1 in consistency on PvPoke
ooo
A change has been made for next Monday’s bundle the 5 incense were removed to makes room for 2 more remote raid passes
I personally don’t need the pokeballs but oh well
5 incenses = 200 coins
2 passes = 200 coins
me see no change 🤡
Shadow Lugia? 👀
so how do we get to giovanni
@lusty spoke It’s always a quest line you complete and at the end you get a super rocket radar then you have to find him and beat him
Ngl I kinda wanted those 5 incense
Please no more incense
I have over 40 from doing challenges and stuff over the years
oooh so were getitng a new one nice
Glad we’re getting more remote passes
Yeah same, I already have too much incense
Latam event killed the chance of lots to finish the collection challenge 
I didn’t finish the valentines c.c cuz I fell asleep during luvdisc spotlight hour and didn’t finish my research task for pink fish in gen 5
kinda same but latam event made raid hour of krickets so we don't have any legend
is the shiny mew challenge limited time or do you keep the challenge to do whenever?
Its perm meaning u will have it forever
Im 700k away from 39
Hit lvl 41 a couple days ago
nice
Probably was a dumb decision and shouldve saved the lucky egg for CD and done it then lol
Friendship is the best way to gain xp
also in america theres gonna be a event
Takes a bit but its easy
incenses will last 3hrs
yeah but fwendships are kinda hard to track if you don't have like a group to do it timely
fwendship farm groups are pretty popular if you get 20 people
even 10
oh yeh the latam event
love it but it kinda stacked with the last day for collection event and pain
which color did you guys pick for kanto event
Green
me too
I chose red due to missing more shinies from it
my fave color is green and my fave kanto starter is bulbasaur so it's a win win 
lol
my bf choose red to help me with the trading just in case
ok
so we can just trade between us 
i'm missing more shinies from green too but green exclusive mons are more elusive
im trying for omanyte too and vulpix
i already have shiny vulpix so i dont really need it
im hoping for omanyte and magmar or kingdra
Woohoo!I just got a friend who purchased green to help me out
nice
it is annoying how you apparently have to be level 40 to get shiny mew.
and walk 151km
As long as it's unique as part of the quest and not new new unique XD
sweats in already 40 for a year and a half
i mean, shiny mew it's pretty elusive and it's the rarest shiny myth so it's good it's behind hard work
or else people would just farm it in smol accounts
there are people with multiple lv40 accounts too, tho
yeah i don't mind a challenge for shiny mew, feels more rewarding at the end of the day
probably doesn't help that getting shiny celebi was super easy compared to shiny mew which is locked behind paywall/L40 etc though
Who else even saw an Alomomola in this Valentine's event? Did worse on this one than any of the others.
do you have to complete the shiny ditto challenges to unlock shiny mew challenges?
Yes
i'll need to get my alt to level 40 ugh this is a pain
Got both accounts to 46 I’m content 
Hey, if I wait until the kanto event is out to claim my research breakthrough, would the snorlax have a chance of being shiny?
I think so
dont think so
@silent reef, We’re 2 days away from best friend status. We don’t have our friendship level raised today yet so I will send you a gift. Then if you send yours I will wait until tomorrow and we can plan or meet up so we can both use the egg.
I’m going to try and send you my best pokestop gift.
I’ll send you one of my rare stickers too since this is the end of out friendship leveling up.
Okay I sent it.
I’m heading to bed now. DM later or m me in chat if you want to tell me anything. I should be able to find it
@worthy solar ultra with MysticSpy, gonna open gift soon. Egg? Not sure what time it is over there, just wanted to warn ya
welp i got a shiny pidgey
sad since morrow theyre gonna be rlly ez to get
Ok i gotcha. @valid sentinel
How do I change I pokemons EVs / IVs
@worthy solar @flint wind @karmic raven @valid sentinel @paper reef
I think I need to battle to change evs
change evs on what?
My vaporion
u cant change evs
What about ivs
:C
By trading a Pokémon you can change it’s stats but you can’t trade it back again it’s a one time trade
nope
:C
why is it that i have 9 fast TMs but no charged TMs... smh
what are the rewards for leveling up to level 30?
ohk
Super sorry for the image spam but it involves the time the Pokémon will spawn for the event tomorrow
Thanks for the info
Snorlax where? 😦
Yo thanks for posting that. I didn’t know what is boosted in each hour yet
mattr759 has given 1 'General Rep' to Crimson Knight12.
Lapras 
I’m only gonna catch articuno mostly since I already have a decent amount of Fire/electric types
Apologies if this is the wrong thread but is there anybody UK based who would be up for trying to get a distance trade so I can complete some research?
It's not wrong don't worry
hope you can find someone
I'll just do a couple of each, hoping i don't get another green mewtwo
I can’t even with raids anymore I throw a excellent with a golden razz berry not even one shake But no berry and not even a good throw and it gets caught
lol i feel u
Maybe a stupid question, but is it better to transfer the shiny Celebi to home?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
idk really
that's more up to you tho
i really prefer to keep all shiny myths in go, as a flex in game but if you're not gonna use it you can just yeet to home 
more like personal preference
i dont think atm- there was an event where it could be
So a higher chance of ditto spawns ? 😅😁
Is there any way to likely obtain Meltans with better stats?
trading 
but uh, snowy weather gives at least boosted cp and stuff, pretty much luck
I've opened lots of boxes and still never got a 100
max I got was a 98 in snowy weather
A 100? What does that refer to? 100%, so three stars?
All stats red n three stars
Makes sense. How do you know your percentage?
does anyone know if you have to trade pokes caught DURING the kanto event to count towards the challenge?
lol happens a lot
Yeh for the exclusive mons depending on what version you bought
kanto event starting so we should have more info soon
I am really concerned about needing to trade the pokemon I dont have.... and beating the raids that are too strong for me x.x to complete the kantonian pokedex
whats ur highest cp chief
theres other discord channels for raids if you need help
but yes, the trading is not gonna be easy
trading is the one thing in pogo that confuses me
I think I just evolved a flareon that's 1600 cp
oh
No! You can do that?
You can dodge?!
swipe left and right
yep
yep swipe left and right
o,o
if you time it right you can negate any damage
you can dodge charged attacks if you do well
i only learnt it by messing around in a raid for latias which we won i will note
I have enough revives and potions that survive hasn't been a problem... it's dealing enough damage.
ahh see thats where the rest of this discord comes in handy
And now I need Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno, and Mewtwo x.x
you gotta get a squad
I mean, I have trouble going beyond 2500CP
mewtwo will be easy enough tbh if your lucky with giovanni
other discord channels also if its inactive here
yeh always keep an eye on legendary raids cause it will be on fire tonight once australia gets their hands on the new legendarys
I'm unsure of which ticket to get either - red or green - because no one near me trades x.x
then get whatever one has pokemon you like 😄
I will keep an eye after work today.
that doesnt require trading
I need all 149 Kanto pokemon x,x
oh damn
I want that Mew.
how do you only have 2 pokemon from kanto
well lucky for you it never goes away then research once u got it
What do you mean?
you need 149 of the 151 pokemon?
No, I want the 149 that are in the Dex. Mewtwo and Mew are hidden.
oh
I'm at 131 I think right now.
ok yea, youll be fine
Or something like that.
your missing 18 youll be fine chief
I also need grass types to finish the Celebi event.
you prolly wont even need to trade to complete the dex if you hav 131 alrdy
The ones that are exclusive to incense are some I don't have.
raids for regional pokemon
kangskhan and mr mime, need to hit those up
I will do what I can. Nothing more that I can do than that.
XD
You said the legendary raids will have the new raids for kanto birds and mewtwo?
yes
ooh noo
smh
wait just make an alt and power level
rough math equals out to like 45 pokemon unique captured and youll hit 10 easy
you need 2 devices though
this is the timed research?
it's not too bad to level
it's not timed, it's the kanto research
if you start it during the event you can complete it any time
ah excellent
can you choose which mega u want for your charizard
or is it like a set in stone situation
choose
interesting
my two goals for this event 1 catch the 3 birds 2 get all gen 1 evolves and last find a ditto
for this event, you prolly want x
well luckily you got a guarenteed shiny ditto so youre all good there
oh i didn get the kanto pass
oh oops
i had an incident recently so kinda cant haha
aw, well you got as good a chance as ever to get a ditto tho so youll prolly still be fine
yeh 🙂
seems easy enough
ooh mewtwo candy
if i could get the pass i would tbh looking at that
im still trying to wrap my head around how i'm going to pass that trade roadblock...
The events just started for me, and its almost unplayable at the moment
oof
i guess that explains why the app seems so slow.
i've still got about a day, though.
As usual xD
Every time they do a big event like a go fest the App is lagging hardly at least in the beginning
Ugh trade research task
The worst
Anyone in the Boulder colorado area and want to friend me for trades? Lol
Anyone know if they're extending the trade range again?
Regionals in raids were unexpected
which researches are paid ones? only the Masterwork?
i think the entire ditto line and the masterwork.
I always said they might be featured in tasks/near future events/raids , they wouldn't ask us to catch the all 150 mons without access to all of the them
Try to look for a local group discord
do those exist?
Idk if they do in your area but I know there are many of them, like in my city there is a local whatsapp&discord group
is it a big city?
I knew we would have access to them, I thought they would of been task rewards more than anything that’s why it caught me by surprise. Oh well, starts for me in 2 hours better prep.
If you get the pass do you get the Mew research even after the event is over
i think as long as you get the special research during the event you can take as long as you need to complete it.
@woeful pulsar 's post above outlines it
[Message Link](#pogo_discussion message) to #pogo_discussion
1 hr 11mins till Australia gets new raids
That’s to unlock the mew quest, the mew quest line will be more difficult.
Will be done in a day for most, probably an extra day for casual players who may only play for a couple of hours.
Mew quest line requires lvl.40 to complete
It also requires you to walk 151km and send 151 gifts so we don’t know the full line unless a) it’s leaked or b) we wait for the first person to complete it in a few days.
I coukd do the other stuff probably in a day if I emptied my bag and had some.good shoes on
Walking 151km? No, that’s definitely not happening in a day, I can do 40 on a good day 
LUL
Okay 3 days 🤣🤣
e x e r c i s e
Or I swing my phone around on a fan fan like a day and hope thst does something
Drivers it will be worse, the fuel cost, the speed they have to maintain through registering km’s and danger risks they put everyone in 
For the next 12 hours 
Meanwhile imma stay tucked in and wait for those sweet sweet Australia raids
Starts in an hour and 12 minutes for me, pretty sure it’s about to begin in Sydney
👀👀 you have my attention
do you guys know if trading collection challenge pokemon to ppl without the pass works?
Should do don't see why not
I mean as long as your collection is finished
It shouldn't binder it where it comes from.
yea i hope so
aussies its starting soon
AHHHHHH
i can see those mewtwo invites coming 
Just gonna grab some marshmallows and watxh the reddit for pokemongorsids melt
Oh my lord
well the good news is most of these raids probably wont have any shortage of people.
welp i cant find one more person for mootoo 
YE YE YE YE YE YE one hour and ILL KILL 
Good time to mega something probably against the mewtwo, the birds are easy duo’d or triple teamed
lmao

Translation:
Pogo servers: HLEP
lmao those poor servers are getting SLAMMED
Lol and this is just with like nz and aus lol
Only a quarter of Australia 
"I'm givin her all she's got, Cap'n!"
Tomorrow is gonna be hell with US joins the chat
So two states and two islands have the event and they’re already screwing the pooch 
as the tidal wave of the US and most of Europe looms in the background
Kanto make up event around the corner 
"server machine broke"
"understandable have a nice day"
Because nothing says we’re sorry like giving Australia three go fests 
So I’m sure this will go just peachy
i just want the servers to stay online long enough to redeem my ticket.
at least.

Whereas the mewtwo I did was a pleb, sigh 
does trading galarian farfetch’d count as kantonian?
Probably not
I mean... it’s galarian
The regional variants won’t count here
I can check hold up
@flint wind like i’ve never evolved a kantonian ninetales, only alolan, but i have it checked off in the pokedex
same with my sandslash lol
Regionals are spawning in raids in Australia
So it might count. My Aussie friend hasn’t traded one so he doesn’t know 😂
But only the Kanto version of those regionals
i’ve been saving my regionals to trade to some friends bc they doesn’t want to raid for them lol
Even with 12 free passes? Though the birds are better I guess
@steel parcel are you USA?
Ok I’ll keep you updated. Ours starts in 10 hours
luckily i got my shiny tauros on a vacay and also one from new year event
Same as Mime here. Gross spawns 😂
lol
And yet Pansear seems rare. I need some for my trader account. A NY friend is catching bouffalant for me there but I have nothing to give him other than klefki 🤣
bouffalant omg
And of course EVERYONE wants mime jr
they’re so annoying here
literally so big they’ll be sitting on some other poke and i can’t even catch it without getting the big beef first
heracross is a good fighter! bouffalant’s just some beef with an afro
Odd that most other regionals are shiny
lol
rip
Right. I gotta clear Mount Pyre. Good luck tomorrow everyone ❤️
this event was not planned well enough
the hype building up to it gonna get killed by the lag kek
gl!
first huge event for me so im ready!
For FREEEEEEEE
lol indeed
lmao, i got into a moltres raid and it escaped
oof
i hate these floating legendaries, first the latis, now the birds
mhm
flying is trolly
only reason i want a shiny at this point is so it wont escape lol

There’s a max raid in like 3 mins add me to join
so if any of you catch a shiny legend, would you transfer it to swsh?
If I had spares and it's low iv and already rerolled yes
Lollll
I’ll buy them all with 99 coins lol
lol
lol
i think i might just transfer them all, and keep the non shiny in pogo
why is mewtwo about 56000 and the bird trio at 45000 and 46000
What are their shiny chances
Wait the birds are out?
i think 1/20, meaning a 5% chance
Sweet thanks
i havent seen a shiny legend for me so far, so idk
pogo doesnt like me having good shinies
Same
nice, i only have the shiny event celebi, and thats it
Someone's saying they have a mew raid 
Hopefully they meant mewtwo
God I hope so
Where is this happening?
Aus
How do u make sure you don’t miss people hosting raids besides just watching the channel constantly? I don’t want to just sit here doing nothing but there seems to just be such a small window to join people lol. I’m fairly new to pogo so I’m sorry if this is a dumb question haha
I see moltres,Zapdos,mewtwo but no articuno dang it
Holy christ, the server I’m in is hungry for Mewtwo raids. Someone posted one and in half a second 75 people reacted to join.
^
i am thinking if i should just wait for other days
how long is the mewtwo raid gonna last?
I just ran half a mile for a gosh darn venasaur
Nice
Got my fav legend! First pokeball too!
Nice
