[radiant vigil]

4.5 years of pogo walking later

[primal sluice]

guys im curious what kind of mega pokemon raid is available currently?

[charred rapids]

Lopunny, Venusaur and abomasnow

[primal sluice]

i heard the mega form last only 7 hours is it true?

[charred rapids]

8 hours

[primal sluice]

sigh imma just do it for the mission XD

[white quartz]

It takes way less mega candy to evolve a specific pokemon after you mega evolve that pokemon. Plus the extra candy you can get from having a mega up is nice

[primal sluice]

i might just do it for the mission tbh XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah so mega gyarados will take 200 for the first one, then if you mega that exact dos it will be 40 every time after, walking it as your buddy can build it up a lot too (ended up with 1600 mega dos energy).

[rocky ice]

how do i get remote raid passes

can i only get them from the shop when it comes in an event gift

[cold saffron]

That or buying one pass for 100 coins or 3 passes for 250 coins down in the shop

[karmic raven]

You can purchase them from the shop as well with pokecoins

[steel parcel]

sending extra pogo shinies to a good home

[tight pilot]

That typhlosion tho

[steel parcel]

most shinies i evolve for the dex and then transfer to home

felt bad for hoarding so many so i thought why not make some non pogo player’s day

[primal sluice]

i have one wondering near by me but too lazy to look for him XD

[pulsar thunder]

Question about gyms, how come sometimes I can send berries remotely and other times I can’t

[primal sluice]

what does the berry even do?

[pulsar thunder]

I can feed it to Pokémon inside the gym and it heals them

I was gonna take a screenshot but Lando’s took over the gyms around me

[karmic raven]

Recover Hp

When a raid is happening you can’t feed the Pokémon’s in the gym

[pulsar thunder]

How come it lets me do it sometimes not all the time?

Is it once a day per gym?

[hoary dust]

I want those so bad lmao

Is 5000cp possible on this

If I get best friends and max it out

[radiant vigil]

Not unless it's mega evolved I suspect

[hoary dust]

4000 is easily possible

I wonder if it’s gonna be broken when it can mega evolve

Max attack and probably 5000cp

If it was shadow imagine

[radiant vigil]

Mewtwo is already broken 🤣

[primal sluice]

does anyone have this problem with when u feeding ur buddy or claiming the reward he bring or petting him it take a long time to load or it just show an error?

[radiant vigil]

Yes sometimes it takes ages to load

[ivory halo]

Speaking of buddies...

This is how much it costs to power up my buddy, Oshi.

[hoary dust]

Yes

[primal sluice]

on the road of 800 wins to plat badge for great league T.T

[hoary dust]

Imagine if you evolve

[ivory halo]

Yes

[radiant vigil]

I've resorted to grinding this as my last plat cos I've had issues with the other one I'm going for 🤣

[ivory halo]

What was the other one?

[pulsar thunder]

What? I haven't seen an oshawatt ever was it a rare spawn or event day?

[radiant vigil]

Wayfarer but my rating kept dropping 🤷🏻‍♀️ so I stopped lol

[ivory halo]

Interesting

[primal sluice]

meh i be just doing the pvp for the stardust tbh XD and i hear that at the end of the season u get some items too soooooooo yeah XD

[radiant vigil]

I'm cheating 👀 beating up 10 cp mons from alt heh

[ivory halo]

Oshawott was appearing during the Unova event, although I specifically remember catching Oshi before the event.

[pulsar thunder]

Interesting, it might have been after I started playing again; I've only caught tepig and snivy

[ivory halo]

Oh, was it during the event?

[radiant vigil]

I saw oshawott as a spawn yesterday but I do live near water

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah I caught Snivy during the event but Tepig I used to see regularly a few months ago

[ivory halo]

Nice, did you get a shiny Snivy?

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah I got a few but only one 3-star that I evolved

[ivory halo]

I caught 5 of them.

Somehow others got over 12

[primal sluice]

@radiant vigil im level 32 atm think ill be able to hit level 34 with the CD coming up? XD

[radiant vigil]

Depends on whether it's got an exp boost or not

And if they fix friendship

[primal sluice]

talking abt friendship i didnt even know i had u on all 3 of my account T.T

[radiant vigil]

Open ma gifts 🤣

[primal sluice]

and yes i hope they fix that cuz i plan on opening some gifts that day

[ivory halo]

What is the CD?

[primal sluice]

lmaoooo sry i didnt know it was u T.T i always take care of the gifts that i have highest friendship gifts with

[primal sluice]

community day there is a bonus with 3x xp per catch this saturday

[radiant vigil]

We don't know what comm day is yet

[ivory halo]

Ahhh, I see, thanks!

[radiant vigil]

This weekend is the friendship day thing

[ivory halo]

Sustainability week is also active

[radiant vigil]

Which is promising loads of xp

[primal sluice]

XD just keep ur fingers cross and hit those excellent shot T.T

[radiant vigil]

Also increased odds of lucky trades which is annoying cos I need that for L48 and I hit that on Monday

[primal sluice]

XD i shall not think that far my common goal is to hit level 38 atm XD

[glass lance]

Anyone got a landorus raid?

[hoary dust]

What level do you start getting xl candies

Is it 35

[radiant vigil]

40

[hoary dust]

Or 40

I suck

I’m level 29

😭😭😭

[radiant vigil]

I've just been playing for a while...

[primal sluice]

we all been through it dont worry XD u will get there sometime it may not be today or tmr but someday u will

i only recently started last month XD

and now here i am being level 32 XD

[radiant vigil]

Definitely took me more than a month to hit L32 when I started

[primal sluice]

hoping to hit level 38 at the end of next month :V

sound impossible thing to do lmaooo

[radiant vigil]

Need friendship working xD

[primal sluice]

XD i do this coordinating thing with ppl mostly so i ask someone if they r available saturday for the friendship gift opening and they go off abt I also need to coordinate this, it's not only you !!!! like that is why u call it coordinating if yes u can do it then good if no then e do it another time like common it was a yes or no question T.T

[primal sluice]

i still got 20+ gifts to open when saturday come hehehee

[radiant vigil]

Coordinating friendships is how I got most of my exp so I know the feeling XD with people on the same time zone usually everyone does it on comm day, but with internationals it's difficult 🤣 cos I'm very far ahead time zone wise compared to most people

[primal sluice]

sigh it ez wt it ez XD i still got that greatfriend ship and good friendship gifts it may not be much but better than nothing XD

[hoary dust]

What should I evolve polywhirl into

[radiant vigil]

Politoed is cute 👀

[analog steeple]

And it’s a PvP menace

[primal sluice]

not u flexing on us T.T

[analog steeple]

Most importantly, hella cute

[primal sluice]

i see it 25% of the time on pvp T.T

[analog steeple]

Why do you think I’m building a snowbama?

[primal sluice]

i got my little electric spider :3 atleast it will go out as one for one XD

[radiant vigil]

So I should keep my toed to wreck pvp one day? 👀

[analog steeple]

Ye. You put weather ball on it and watch it go to work

[radiant vigil]

Wow it was made for it 👀

[analog steeple]

Of course you casually have that

[radiant vigil]

[primal sluice]

anytime is see u in pvp i aint gonna even think twice u can have a free win

[radiant vigil]

99.6 on ultra league?

[analog steeple]

I prefer it for GL. Ultra league I tend to go swampert only cause swampert is a thicc boi

[radiant vigil]

GL less dust

[analog steeple]

Even more reason

[radiant vigil]

If I play GBL I only ever do great league 🤣I don't get the others

[primal sluice]

idk what pokemon should go for ultra league XD

[analog steeple]

UL was pretty beginner friendly too I found

I just ran Gallade/machamp/swampert and did okay

[radiant vigil]

I used to do the silph arena things so I'm used to sub 1500 things 🤣

[analog steeple]

Only premier though. I don’t like open cups lol

Not dealing with fucking legendaries

[radiant vigil]

Groudon any good in pvp? Have a few shiny lucky 98s

That I don't mind chucking dust at cos

[analog steeple]

Would have to ask peeps playing it in open cups or masters. I stick to UL Premier or GL

[primal sluice]

im sticking to to my GL XD

i like my stunfisk to annoy some people :3

o btw i was wondering how come some people have 2 different charge attack?

[radiant vigil]

You unlock it

[primal sluice]

o ok

i might do it for my stunfisk

[analog steeple]

Cost stardust btw

[radiant vigil]

Exxy

[analog steeple]

And candies

Stunfisk is pretty expensive. 75k and 75 candies

[primal sluice]

T.T

[radiant vigil]

Mewtwo cost me 100k dust and 100 candy

[primal sluice]

i only have 466k :/

imma just stay in my lonely corner

[radiant vigil]

My shiny marshtomp is apparently like a 91% UL swampert apparently

Mud bois op

[primal sluice]

o well time to get this daily pvp done XD

[radiant vigil]

Good luck

[analog steeple]

Yoooo milli got the mudboi setup!

Does it have hydro cannon?

[radiant vigil]

This one does, but too much atk stat

Actually I found something better with hydro cannon

[primal sluice]

went 4-1 first set not bad and then we have annoying landorus here again T.T

and he staying on the right side of the screen idk how to throw ball there properly T.T

[radiant vigil]

Usually you can reset it's position by turning on ar then turning it off. Will recenter it

[primal sluice]

o tht new to me

[primal sluice]

weak connection almost messed me up T.T

[steel parcel]

i had my first 5-0 set in a while. then lost 3 in a row to double ghost teams -__- taking a break for tonight

[primal sluice]

wigglytuff is annoying with that rapid defense drop T.T

[lucid frigate]

Doesnt drop defense, but charm does so much damage it might as well lol

[primal sluice]

what is this pvp game

T.Tstart off good now back to losing so much T.T

[radiant vigil]

Tis the pvp life made me rage quit lol

[primal sluice]

i made it back to 12/12 last match T.T

o nvm it is 13/12 now XD i win major of my game not gonna argue abt it :V

[steel parcel]

i’m running an ABB team for the first time and i either win really hard and lose really hard. no in between

[primal sluice]

i think im running ABB team also the problem with it is that if u switch first u basically 70% lost

[analog steeple]

What’s the team?

[steel parcel]

basti, medi, toxicroak

i just caught a rank 3 croagunk and thought i’d try it out since my well balanced teams are so alignment dependent

[lucid frigate]

I ran a semi ABB team for a while and it worked well until i reached a certain point, then it just got hard countered

[steel parcel]

yep

just had a 0-5 set to balance that last 5-0 set

i kind of want to give up on legend and run a meme team with weezing, ekans and wobbuffet. at least people will get a laugh out of beating me

and if i win, they won’t be too annoyed i hope

[lucid frigate]

Ill run meme teams when i hopefully hit legend, if i dont then oh well

[uneven garden]

I can’t seem to find any team go rocket grunts or leaders anyone knows why?

[cold saffron]

they're currently removed, because there was a bug with them

[uneven garden]

Oh ok thanks

[odd glade]

Finally?

No update about the lucky egg & friendship level yet

[charred rapids]

I lucked out and lucky egged a best friend this morning, it’s touch and go really I wouldn’t risk it

[radiant vigil]

wow how is it still down

[charred rapids]

It’s Niantic.....

[radiant vigil]

Setting new records all the time

[hoary dust]

Idk if I should use my rare candies to get this to that much cp

Same goes with this

[lucid frigate]

You dont seem have the stardust anyway, weedle and eevee are fairly common mons so save your rare candy for legendaries or rarer pokemon

[steel parcel]

yeah weedle’s not spawning rn but it’ll be all over the place once a new season starts

[ivory halo]

YES! Full odds shiny abra!

[rustic nova]

Aye that’s a dope full odds shiny

Anyone have any idea when the next legendary raid boss will be out? It’s annoying not having a chance for it to be shiny

[ivory halo]

I found a landorus raid, signups still available.

[pulsar thunder]

Is a Torterra worth it to buy a remote raid pass for?

[ivory halo]

I don't think so

[woeful pulsar]

https://pokemongolive.com/post/rocket-return/

[tight pilot]

Hallelujah i’ve needed 9 more leaders to hit level 45 and was just put at a halt bc of that rocket issue

Shadow Zapdos again tho... okay but like

[subtle bough]

yessssssssss

[tight pilot]

Can confirm they’re back & live, just had a grunt at a pokestop

[woeful pulsar]

yeah i'm like halfway through leaders for the mission i'm so lazy

[odd glade]

Yay they are back now I can get a victini for the switch

In other hand shadow zapdos as a make up? LOL

[karmic root]

yeah just got a ballooon here lets gooo

[ivory halo]

Nice, I just swept a few grunts with my overlevelled Oshawott, Suicune and Arcanine.

#best squad

[odd glade]

Finally, welcome home!

Now I hope they release Melo to the Switch

[primal sluice]

imagine they comeback knowing how to use shield XD

[lucid frigate]

And baits dont work

[primal sluice]

due to new update now the game is taking ages for me to swap acc T.T

[radiant vigil]

Just battled a rocket balloon, feels great

[primal sluice]

cliff is annoying as usual

my alt cant beat him due to lack of pokemon XD

[primal sluice]

help me do my daily set XD

[analog steeple]

I thought they drop to the cp of your highest mons ?

[primal sluice]

ha u wish XD

[analog steeple]

I just beat em up on my alt and I’m level 14?

[primal sluice]

actually nvm i havent check it XD

i think i can beat other leader just cliff T.T

[primal sluice]

my game is bug it isnt allowing me to battle in pvp T.T it just going to loading and then kicking me out

keep getting error 6 T.T

[proud hazel]

does anyone wanna trade something?

i have a zapdos to trade which is 1268 cp pre purification

[lucid frigate]

You cant trade long distance or shadows unfortunately

[ivory halo]

I caught my first Landorus!

[karmic raven]

Imagine a shadow shiny lucky hundo

[ivory halo]

Hmm, yes

[charred rapids]

impossible lol

[radiant vigil]

Ah true, can't trade shadows

[charred rapids]

You were able to at the start.

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I remember when people were trying to push through lucky shadow trades cos the odds of purified hundo was stupid high 🤣

[charred rapids]

First time in a long time that I’m actually happy with how inaccurate the weather is in the app, been cloudy in a sunny environment all day

[radiant vigil]

The only time I ever got foggy weather in game was when it wasn't foggy appreciate the snowy castform kek

[charred rapids]

Appreciate all the trubbish spawns with just under 1000 dust per catch

[radiant vigil]

I've been stuck indoors with some sort of cold so can't even dust grind

[charred rapids]

Ya missing out!!! This is better than the dumb reward we had to unlock

I gained more than 100k without a piece just today

[radiant vigil]

😭 the one time it's good to be out and active is legit the one time I can't be

Couldn't even leave the house yesterday, was so dead

[charred rapids]

Get better soon! Hope you at least make the friendship event tomorrow

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I've spent the last 3 days trying to beat this and it's getting better so fingers crossed

It's actually sunny in game and outside here though, no bonus dust

[uncut trail]

i got 2 landorus from GBL today

more freebies without raiding

[steel parcel]

just caught a rank 1 binacle for GL, any team suggestions?

[charred rapids]

Well ya biggest weakness is grass, another is fighting so probably a flying type, mandibuzz/altaria/skarmory.

[primal sluice]

i still dont understand the iv stats of this being 100% in pvp tbh T.T im slow

[steel parcel]

@charred rapids i don’t have a good mandibuzz but i have altaria and skarmory double moved! i’ll check pvpoke for a good third

@primal sluice check cho’s link in pogo flexing for an explanation

[primal sluice]

yeaa i saw the link and still a bit confused abt it XD

[charred rapids]

Electric might be another issue

[radiant vigil]

Tl;Dr atk stat = higher cp and you want it low to get more levels under 1500cp

[charred rapids]

But stunfisk wouldn’t fit I don’t think.

[primal sluice]

but lets take for instance it is a hundo stunfisk at 1500cp wouldnt it still work in GL?

[radiant vigil]

If it maxes out under 1.5k then yeah you want hundo

I let poke genie math it for me if I want to check

[charred rapids]

So yes a stunfisk hundo can still work, won’t produce the best results to IV specific stunfisk though, lower IV’s means you can stuff more power ups before the limit than higher IV’s

[radiant vigil]

I remember everyone going after hundo medicham back in the day

[primal sluice]

so basically lower attack iv i can like increase the cp more and the hp will go up more or something like that?

becuz if im correct increasing ur cp basically also increase ur pokemon hp too right?

[radiant vigil]

You want higher level within the cp limit

[charred rapids]

My 98 stunfisk will hit the limit at level 24, my great league stunfisk which still isn’t the best is level 27, more power ups the better.

[radiant vigil]

Better explained ^^

[primal sluice]

ok another question how do u know what the level is of a pokemon?

[charred rapids]

That’s usually something pokegenie tells you.

[primal sluice]

o ok

[charred rapids]

And it’s not just solid numbers like main series games, there’s halves too.

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Like 26.5, 27, 27.5

[primal sluice]

MELLOWWWWWWWWW dont worry abt the mega raid anymore i got it but it is still trash T.T

[charred rapids]

Marshmallow

[radiant vigil]

I'm hungry

[charred rapids]

Same

[tight pilot]

Lol i hate randoms hit 1 day before BF’s with someone like yesterday or day before, figure i’ll just waitctill saturday and take double xp, nope they deleted me this morning like wtf why

[charred rapids]

Hello hungry I’m metal

[primal sluice]

why u reminding me that im hungry also T.T

[twilit sapphire]

same

[primal sluice]

poor mellow T.T i feel that will be me with someone on my list XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah I had a local woman delete me a day off being bestfriends with both accounts you best believe I hunted her down, like oi? Why wouldn’t you want 400k xp?

[primal sluice]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOO

[radiant vigil]

Wtf that's the worst

[primal sluice]

o yes speaking abt that

[radiant vigil]

At least like wait a day or two...

[primal sluice]

just like someone delete u and add u back

[tight pilot]

Yeah like wtf you doing like you couldnt wait 1 or 2 days? i neverrrr hold gifts either so just ouf

[primal sluice]

does ur friendship restart?

[tight pilot]

Nah friendship doesnt restart

[charred rapids]

After like 60-90 days

I don’t know which one it is.

[tight pilot]

It was just a random tho so no cluee who / what they code is

Oh damn i didnt know the 60-90 days thing yikes

[charred rapids]

Yeah you can actually lose your friendship progress after awhile.

[radiant vigil]

Farm the same person over and over

[charred rapids]

As long as you add again in the timeframe you’ll be mellow

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

I should go to bed, xp event today, I want more than a mil xp

[radiant vigil]

Watch the lucky eggs break for aus and nz

[primal sluice]

i just want to get to level 38 that is all XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah dude I’m stacking, I’ll be setting all my lucky eggs off.

[primal sluice]

atm im 32 T.T

[radiant vigil]

I already am in bed but should sleep 🤣

[charred rapids]

Well devil this would be the event to do it

[primal sluice]

alright night night u 2 and sweet dreams :V

[radiant vigil]

I have no friends to stack

[primal sluice]

i dont have that much lucky egg T.T

i might use 2 in this event

[primal sluice]

i have 30 rdy for tmr XD

[radiant vigil]

I need more active friends 🤣 so many of them aren't lol

[charred rapids]

You get 20,000 for every hourly global challenge completed, you get 100,000 for some catch collection thing completed, and it’s 3x catch xp, aim for excellents and you’ll be laughing mate

[primal sluice]

some ulra some good and some great :3

[charred rapids]

You’ll be cruising past levels like you did in the beginning.

[primal sluice]

dang why does it sound like imma yeet all my lucky egg in there

[radiant vigil]

It's yeeeeting time

[charred rapids]

That’s the idea, if you have eggs, yeet them all on that day

[tight pilot]

I HAD 6 bf’s ready to pop plus a few ultras and then the 175k exp bonus from challenge for tomorrow so we’re all set to nab over a mil exp off one lucky egg but i’ll probably use a couple aa im just xp grinding and i have like 15 lucky eggs bc ocd bout using em

[primal sluice]

there will be hourly global challenge?

[tight pilot]

100k was changed to 175k *

[charred rapids]

For friendship day yeah want more info?

[tight pilot]

Or maybe 150 i forget what i read but seen it got updated

[primal sluice]

giimme some T.T i only have 4 XD

[radiant vigil]

Ok time to sleep

[primal sluice]

sure gimme the link :3

[charred rapids]

This is basically everything in general and in short

[radiant vigil]

Dream of exp 🤣

[primal sluice]

night night and sweet dreams

[charred rapids]

Don’t need a link just a screenshot.

[primal sluice]

XD ty ty

[tight pilot]

Dream of those big xp gainssssss

[primal sluice]

guess my dream of level 38 isnt too far away :3

after getting there time to pray ninatic allow my gym and pokestop in XD

[charred rapids]

If you grind as hard as you can for the few hours yeah you’ll either hit it or get close

[tight pilot]

https://pokemongolive.com/post/friendshipday-grass-2021

Theres link for you d3v1l

[charred rapids]

The thing is the event itself is like, 3 hours?

[primal sluice]

ty ty :3

[tight pilot]

Yeah only 3 hour event so stuuuupid

But you get till 5pm for the lucky trade boost atleast

Still waiting to learn if we get more than 1 special or not

[charred rapids]

So 3 hour stacked lucky eggs (don’t throw them all on literally) and yeah I’ll be trading last two hours.

[primal sluice]

how should i use my lucky egg?

[tight pilot]

Yeah thats not bad, shocked they did 3 hour lure/incense and not 3 hour lucky wgg with it

[primal sluice]

i have 4 plan on using one to open gifts

[charred rapids]

So about a minute or two before the event starts stack lucky eggs on for about 3 hours.

[primal sluice]

so 3 more to go :3

[tight pilot]

Use it for the last collection challenge (175k -> 300k) then open friend xp gifts then too

If you only have the 1 lucky egg*

[charred rapids]

Are the collection challenges affected by eggs though?

[primal sluice]

cant do this cuz the way i set up with some people i can only open the gifts at the starting of the event

[tight pilot]

They should be so long as its a claim exp

[charred rapids]

I guess we’ll find out tomorrow, I’ll be sure to drop the news

[tight pilot]

I used lucky egg on the 100k from the og mew quest i think it was ?¿ maybe jirachi quest i forget kek

MetalTestDummy?

[charred rapids]

Yeah

[primal sluice]

i might use a incense on one of my alt before the friendship ends so i get the 3 hour incense going on it too XD

[tight pilot]

Im sure someone in NZ can help be your test dummy

And you can stack incense if u want Devil

[primal sluice]

im low on incense on my main and i doubt i have that much pokeball for stack incense on my main

ill use one on my main from the starting and then 30 mins before the friendship end swap to alt pop one and then swap back to my main to finish up XD

[charred rapids]

Just pick and choose what you want to catch, just shiny check if anything

[primal sluice]

i might catch everything for the 3x xp XD

[charred rapids]

Remember excellent throws, they’re normally like 1000xp per catch, then 6x with a lucky egg.

Between 6-7k xp per mon.

[primal sluice]

ill have my fingers cross and pray for that excellent throw T.T

[charred rapids]

Aim for mons with big catch circles, tangela might have a decent one, grimer if it’s still spawning, if you’re able to get out, head to where your local players do comm days

[primal sluice]

XD no local players with me here

i doubt anyone even play in my area lmaoo

[charred rapids]

Is there any area with multiple stops that are all reachable within each other?

[tight pilot]

If tomorrow is your 7th day catch streak + you still have the Venusaur from timed research, wait till 11 pop a lucky egg and catch that with excellent throw, should be a purdy amount of xp

[charred rapids]

Or am I talking to a rural player

[tight pilot]

Talking to a vvvv rural player metal

[primal sluice]

T.T

[charred rapids]

Oh man

Good luck with the incense

[tight pilot]

I used to live that life where closest stop was like a 25 min drive into town so i know the struggle

[charred rapids]

You gon catch up to me mellow?

[primal sluice]

i got some mission reward to claim for tmr too with lucky egg so ez pz XD

[tight pilot]

Oh gheeeez i could never but its been a way better grind since I moved last September

[charred rapids]

Yeah you very well could if your place is better than mine for spawns and stuff

[charred rapids]

have they fixed the friend thing yet

[loud sentinel]

skitty in the record store what do u do

[karmic raven]

Apparently they fixed the friendship xp lucky egg thing but I’m not sure if the game requires an update or not

[steel parcel]

alolan exeggutor in the wild??? really?

[primal sluice]

so many grass type thou XD

will there be other pokemon besides grass type? XD

[ivory halo]

Excellent! Another event!

[charred rapids]

Starts in an hour for me, 175,000xp just for the collection completion damn!

[primal sluice]

gl with the grind

[radiant vigil]

Distance trading live yay

[charred rapids]

Not doing any lucky trades

Because level 48 requires 50 of the buggers

[primal sluice]

time to do this GL T.T

[radiant vigil]

Yeah just doing normie trades

I wish this event was next week for when we're on 48 😭

It begins 👀

LOL

[primal sluice]

sigh winning a full set feels like a curse T.T

[analog steeple]

Oi I got a lot of missing xp that says you’re fucking wrong niantic

[primal sluice]

XD

[radiant vigil]

My mons keep breaking out on excellent throws

[hoary dust]

Try excellent+golden razz

[analog steeple]

For US peeps, I think trade distance is live rn

Thanks other side of the world buds 🙌🏽

Also possibly the boosted odds?

[jagged stag]

i havent really played much pogo since the 2016 hype lol

but really tryna go for this mew, is there like any way to cheese the system for collecting magikarp candy?

live beside a farm so 0 pokemon where i live fs

[analog steeple]

We don’t really look nicely on cheesing in here. Staying within ingame availability you can choose it as a buddy and walk it for candy ?

[jagged stag]

yeaa kinda lost touch on all the new featues and all, am i not able to take part in raids unless a friend is beside one?

and trading is only for good friends?

[analog steeple]

There’s remote raiding now - people can join and host raids from anywhere in the world

Trading can be at any level with a friend but it can be pricey

[jagged stag]

holy crap thats a lotta stardust

[analog steeple]

Yeeeeeahhhh

I only trade ultra and up tbh

[jagged stag]

only thing that bothered me about pogo was they dont give a crap if you live in the country

degined for fans in towns and cities

like unless i drive into town i can only catch the one pokemon that pops up a day or open the meltan box

[hoary dust]

Same

[analog steeple]

Yeah I totally hear you. I’ve seen rural folks post their areas and it’s total crap

Are the spawns still awful? I heard those got a bit better

[hoary dust]

Awful

[jagged stag]

it gives you 1 free spawn every 24 hours

[hoary dust]

Yep

[jagged stag]

like im way out in the sticks tbf but they could do a little better

looks like im gonna get heavy into running with a magikarp aha

[analog steeple]

Omfg

[jagged stag]

lockdown has not been kind to my fitness

[analog steeple]

Make sure to feed it berries first and have it on the map with you first otherwise you don’t get candies

[jagged stag]

ohh good shout yeaa

[analog steeple]

Just has to be on the map with you once

Ye. Learned that the hard way with my swampert

[jagged stag]

i have a electivire as my buddy atm as i forgot about ivs in pogo and evolved a 2iv electabuzz instead of a 3 star

so once i get my 3 star evolved ill switch in magikarp, can feed it berries before going to work too as im on my feet mostly aha

[primal sluice]

todays GL wasnt good T.T went 11W-14L

[radiant vigil]

This event is very playable from home, collection challenge is easily doable in 30 minutes with incense XD

And still haven't left house even though I ran out of balls

[lucid frigate]

Oh no, i forgot to stock up on more balls

[pulsar thunder]

What's the ideal pokemon/items size?

[radiant vigil]

I had like 200 balls and I opened all my gifts and I'm pretty much out now 🤣

[karmic raven]

Finally lvl 38!!

[radiant vigil]

btw make sure you claim the exp for the collection challenge before the event ends, cos if you don't you lose it

[charred rapids]

Someone here thought it was doubled with an egg, I knew it wasn’t

Kinda had my hopes up though

[radiant vigil]

It is doubled with an egg, the display was bugged though

I checked before and after, got 350k off it

[charred rapids]

Doesn’t feel like it but I guess I missed it if I had to actually check

How’d you go for your event

[radiant vigil]

I ran out of pokeballs way too early so I had to stop

Couldn't really go all out cos still sick lol

Still got like nearly 800k, considering I was at home pretty good haha

[charred rapids]

Heh yeah not bad at all

[radiant vigil]

How about you? Guessing you went hard

[charred rapids]

Could of went better actually, I did get a good amount of gain but not what I was hoping

[radiant vigil]

honestly the weather boost here made things harder cos stuff kept breaking out

They'd break out of excellents and catch on the bad throw

[charred rapids]

Yeah but the lucky trades were great, soooo boosted, I’m not done yet but just got a 98 lucky froakie boi

[radiant vigil]

someone got a lucky 98 gible off me

Best I got was a 96 lucky clauncher...but it's L1

[charred rapids]

Just got another shiny trubbish I can say today was a good day

[radiant vigil]

I didn't get to grind enough rubbish bags to find a sparkly one

[charred rapids]

Looks clean

[radiant vigil]

It's beautiful

[charred rapids]

It’s beautiful rubbbish, like me

[radiant vigil]

with bonus sparkles

Guess I still have a day to hunt down a rubbish bag

[charred rapids]

Yeah wish you all the luck

[brisk shadow]

Wait so I can't hold the exp even though I've completed it?

[radiant vigil]

You can hold it, just claim it before 2pm lol

I know someone who didn't and they lost it entirely

[brisk shadow]

Ah... ok and you're sure it doubles with the lucky egg?

[radiant vigil]

The visual is bugged, says 175k but when I checked my exp it went up by 350k

[brisk shadow]

Gotcha ok

[radiant vigil]

From the overlords themselves 🤣

[brisk shadow]

Btw, what's a rule of thumb for a good time to use a lucky egg?

Would you personally use a lucky egg just for the 175k or not?

[radiant vigil]

Definitely. You spend the rest of the egg farming excellent throws for 7k each

[analog steeple]

I would personally but that’s cause that’s 350k sweet sweet xp

Otherwise I save them for Ultra or best friends

Oh yeah nah I don’t do that cause I can hit one excellent throw a year

[brisk shadow]

Haha righto

[radiant vigil]

Dw, I hit like 1 in every 10 lol. Still managed to get another 250k on top of the 375k xD

[analog steeple]

Oh sorry milli I misread your comment yeah definitely I’d get that xp on a lucky egg then spend the rest of the time trying to hit excellent throws or raiding

[radiant vigil]

Ahaha no worries, yeah that 375k is like 2 best friends, after that anything else you catch is a bonus

[analog steeple]

At first I thought you implied that’s what you spend eggs on I was amazed

[charred rapids]

Would you use a lucky egg for the 175k alone? Was that an actual question.

[radiant vigil]

I didn't do it, but I know people who did

[analog steeple]

Need to learn how to throw excellents like them

[charred rapids]

The only thing that can outshine 300k+ is if you lucky egg multiple bestfriends

[radiant vigil]

Tbh if it was with the rival event mons I would. But these grass guys have horrible catch rates and weather boost so they still escaped even with excellent curves

[charred rapids]

Turtwig, bellsprout, treecko, and bulba were surprisingly easy for these

[radiant vigil]

(Also I ran out of balls. Lol)

[charred rapids]

Snivy too but that’s probably because I’m used to the catch circle from com day

[radiant vigil]

I likey snivy for the excellents

I'm not good at aim switching though, so variety killed my accuracy

[charred rapids]

I too had a disadvantage, I’m not that good with two phones yet so I missed a couple excellents, still managed about a mil and a half though

[radiant vigil]

Only missing a couple on two phones is really good

[charred rapids]

Not good enough

I also got this too finally

[radiant vigil]

You've got 35 plat now?

[charred rapids]

One account still needs 1 more

But between now and 49, shouldn’t be too difficult

[radiant vigil]

Yeah pretty much me rn, need one more but also need exp 🤣

[primal sluice]

someone open a ultra gift before time T.T

imma go cry myself to sleep now T.T

[charred rapids]

cool, more legendary raids to ignore

[radiant vigil]

Pretty much

They had to round it up for tier 1 lol

[charred rapids]

Lol that’s how inactive we are, it’s already basically over and we couldn’t even get the other two tiers

[radiant vigil]

Lol and the 2nd tier was 3 free remote raid passes too

[charred rapids]

Eh that’s still not a super amazing reward, it just wasn’t there

anyone know if the friendship thing has been fixed

[radiant vigil]

Apparently so, seemed ok when I did some today

[charred rapids]

dont need to update the app or anything?

[radiant vigil]

I didn't update

[charred rapids]

was wondering if i should do the friendship xp things today

[odd glade]

Friendship day =
First throw excellent - the pokemon escapes
2nd throw miss the circle - the pokemon is caught.

Terrible catch rates, or maybe I just got used to the easy catch rates in the last 2 events

[odd glade]

They also make up people who lost exp, I didn't bother to make a ticket but I know some people who did

[radiant vigil]

Exactly what happened to me lol

[charred rapids]

Should probably keep flex channel for flexin woops

[steel parcel]

sorry oops back 2 flexing

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

We in general now what chu doing

[radiant vigil]

Good flexing though

[charred rapids]

Big silly.

[steel parcel]

this is from yesterday lol. i’m currently in bed trying to escape bf’s sleepy clutches

[radiant vigil]

Whoa you hatch a lot, I literally just got that plat a few weeks ago

[charred rapids]

[steel parcel]

i might have gone too hard trying to get shiny fc happiny...

[radiant vigil]

I gave my bf my sickness, that's how I escaped 😂

[steel parcel]

narrator: she did not get shiny fc happiny

[charred rapids]

8,000 👁️👄👁️

[radiant vigil]

That happiny was messed up odds wise XD you were lucky just to hatch the thing

[charred rapids]

I haven’t done a decent egg hatching for so long though.

[steel parcel]

i did not hatch a single shiny happiny lol

they got me good

[charred rapids]

You must be new to these events, dragon week wants to know ya

[steel parcel]

i have heard of deinogate

[charred rapids]

you might hatch a shiny deino, but you ain’t even gonna hatch a regular one so jokes on you

[radiant vigil]

Before that it was gible and riolu XD not worth xD

[charred rapids]

Riolu and gible had far better odds though, there was hope

[radiant vigil]

Then it got stupid

[charred rapids]

Then dragon week came around to remind us how much of a peasant we are

who’s ya daddy?

[radiant vigil]

Niantic!

Take ma monehhhhh

[charred rapids]

[brisk shadow]

btw, is there a minimum cut off for ivs where you decide it's worth investing stardusts on a pokemon

[charred rapids]

I sit and wonder how we are on the top of the food chain

[radiant vigil]

Depends on what you want to use it for....

[brisk shadow]

Like say a Gible that MetalJesus has been trying to get a hundo for?

[charred rapids]

I’ve been trying for a hundo gible?

[radiant vigil]

Still personal preference. I might power up 98 with 15atk but not 14atk. But I'd do the 14 if it was lucky

[charred rapids]

I’d do the 14 if it was shiny, I wouldn’t even power up 14 attack lucky

[radiant vigil]

Some people wouldn't if not hundo

[brisk shadow]

but realistically most people have really lousy hundos

[radiant vigil]

I maxed out a hundo budew cos it was shiny and I don't intend to evo it

It's useless but I wanted to do 😂

[charred rapids]

I intend to max out a shundo togepi, I can’t evolve it

[radiant vigil]

Lol at us maxing out useless mons

[charred rapids]

Your baby vs mine

[radiant vigil]

My baby is already L50 and best friend

[charred rapids]

Togepi would be more difficult for 50, so I’ll wait

[radiant vigil]

I did have an advantage with roselia comm day lol

[sweet mica]

I caught 3 sh trubbish anyone wanna buy one??

[charred rapids]

Get out of here with that

No one wants to buy your virtual shiny lol

[sweet mica]

Me??

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Where’s admins

That’s disgusting get out of here.

[radiant vigil]

@twilit sapphire?

[charred rapids]

Yeah I forgot her name, my bad!

[steel parcel]

hello

[radiant vigil]

Yeah uh once I saw something weird in commands and I yeeted out...

[charred rapids]

Was it anime booty?

Because I saw that too.

[radiant vigil]

Yes

[steel parcel]

oh sorry i thought we were still talking about useless hundos

[radiant vigil]

We are

[brisk shadow]

I thought wailord looks good

[charred rapids]

No, now we’re talking about someone attempting to sell shiny mons

[steel parcel]

someone posted jailbait in general

[charred rapids]

Because they are morally corrupt.

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

that makes them no better than team rocket!!

[brisk shadow]

we missed them when they were gone ok

[radiant vigil]

Team rocket give me powerful mons tho

[charred rapids]

We missed them so much that some of us have become them

[steel parcel]

@sweet mica i hear team rocket is back and looking for recruits

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

in the marketing department

probably

[charred rapids]

Honestly wasn’t expecting that to come out of no where but, bruh who would buy it....

[radiant vigil]

I don't have the shiny 😂

[charred rapids]

Shiny trash bag, i know people are selling shiny libre but this is a trash bag

[radiant vigil]

But I wouldn't buy it no..

[charred rapids]

But you’re not that desperate are you Milli

Yeah, yeah that’s what I thought.

[brisk shadow]

if it were possible to buy a shundo shadow dragonite, imagine the price on it

[radiant vigil]

Only thing I got desperate for was blue mew

[charred rapids]

I still wouldn’t buy it lol

[steel parcel]

@radiant vigil if you’re in nyc area i’d be happy to trade you one!

[radiant vigil]

Unfortunately I'm in Sydney

[steel parcel]

oh goodness

[radiant vigil]

Might not survive the travel all good though

[steel parcel]

ah well if they ever turn on global trading maybe

[brisk shadow]

did pogo ever have global trading?

[charred rapids]

Yeah they’re a snag grabbin, roo ridin, esky drivin Aussie

[radiant vigil]

One can dream

[charred rapids]

Despicable Aussie

[radiant vigil]

Can't even trade with ma fellow aussie

[steel parcel]

v exotic

[radiant vigil]

g'day mate

[charred rapids]

Oh how ya going mate? Yeah nah, went to Bunnings for their sausage sizzle, can’t ask for a better snag aye

[radiant vigil]

🤤 that's the best feed

Just add a goon bag on the side or something

[charred rapids]

Mmmmmm yes, I tried to go there with card once, I was extremely naive and left disappointed

No global trades have never been a thing by the way.

[radiant vigil]

Only 40km

[charred rapids]

Regionals make them money, they don’t want to risk what we pay for

[steel parcel]

sometimes i forget how big australia is

poor millia

[charred rapids]

Australia doesn’t exist

[radiant vigil]

Why is Australia in Australia

[charred rapids]

Paid actors

[brisk shadow]

Btw, how often does Rocket Day come around? I need to change frustration from a number of shadow pokemon and am considering using elite charged TMs vs waiting.

[radiant vigil]

Good question, no idea I'd like to know too so I can use all these charged tms

[charred rapids]

Not very often.

Every couple months.

[brisk shadow]

I missed the previous one in February because of classes

[radiant vigil]

(So you spend more on elite tms)

I forgot on Feb too cos it was a very short window...

[brisk shadow]

you can't just buy elite TMs in the shop, it comes together with that box right?

[steel parcel]

comm day boxes or through gbl rewards

[radiant vigil]

Yeah you need to buy the entire box

[brisk shadow]

I don't have the mons to make a GBL team

[charred rapids]

Elite charge tm’s can’t change frustration

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

oof

that’s... frustrating

i’ll leave now

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

The only way to possibly change the move is through these events.

[brisk shadow]

oh what Elite Charge TMs can't?

[charred rapids]

Yeah no that was BAAAAAD you deserve to be snatched up by your sleepy boi

Nah they can’t.

[brisk shadow]

ouch... ok I'm at a loss now

[radiant vigil]

There's a lot of very stupid mechanics in pogo

[brisk shadow]

Btw, is there a limit to the amount of bag space and pokemon storage you can buy with pokecoins? I feel like these are so damn important and I can't seem to get enough of it.

[charred rapids]

4000 Pokémon 3000 items

[radiant vigil]

Yes

[brisk shadow]

ok

[radiant vigil]

But they'll keep increasing it though

[charred rapids]

Yeah items will be next.

[brisk shadow]

terrific!

[radiant vigil]

It was a lot less a few years ago

[charred rapids]

One stupid mechanic is the rewards for levelling up from 40 to 50 are garbage.

The only thing saving em are the rewards for the level researches.

[radiant vigil]

I love how they gave lucky eggs for max level

[charred rapids]

They think I’m going to be around that long, they’re dreaming.

[steel parcel]

that’s for when level 60 debuts in idk 10 years

[radiant vigil]

You say as a day 1 player

[brisk shadow]

Is there any incentive to going above level 40 then outside of bragging rights then?
Like reaching level 38 gives you the ability to nominate pokestops
Reaching level 40 gives you access to XL candies so you can level your pokemon even further.

Is there any perk I'm not aware of for 40+?

[charred rapids]

Yeah and there’s already a noticeable decrease in my playtime these last few months

[steel parcel]

nope, but some rare pokes are rewards for higher levels

[radiant vigil]

I'm just doing it for flex lol

[brisk shadow]

can you explain this?

wdym?

[steel parcel]

so there’s research for some levels that rewards encounters with rare pokes

[radiant vigil]

Ah level 45 quest gave me my first sandile Lol or something

[charred rapids]

Here’s an example.

[steel parcel]

not all are rare, but they’re difficult to come by

[charred rapids]

Just knock it out of the way.

[radiant vigil]

That's the level 50 one isn't it?

[charred rapids]

Oh yeah.

Pretty isn’t it.

[radiant vigil]

I like the free poses

[charred rapids]

Poses look trash mate

[brisk shadow]

Thanks

[crisp relic]

whatisgpa has given 1 'General Rep' to MetalJesus |WetNoodle|.

[charred rapids]

They are honestly that bad it’s not worth the grind.

[radiant vigil]

Cos I'm too cheap to buy them and I suck at pvp

[charred rapids]

The pose of 45 and 47 are the best poses you get from levelling in my opinion, the level 50 pose is disappointing lol

[radiant vigil]

I like the L45 one yeah

L50 stuff is a bit too busy

[charred rapids]

That random unown encounter is nice though

Can be any letter or symbol.

[radiant vigil]

And shiny?

[charred rapids]

Nah doubt it

They’re shiny locked outside of events.

[radiant vigil]

Oh really? Damn

[charred rapids]

Yeee weren’t you around when they shiny locked unown for our make up go fest?

Australia had like 3 go fests

[radiant vigil]

I didn't do go fest

But I also don't remember it outside of the raids lol

[charred rapids]

Ah well yeah we had two makeup days because the 1st one they locked unown, only reason they’d do that is if they intend to keep it locked after event finished.

Was big doody

[radiant vigil]

I just remember shit going down but a lot of shit happens so I don't remember the detail

[charred rapids]

it was bad yeah

[radiant vigil]

I'm more surprised when things go without any issues

[charred rapids]

You know it’s bad when it’s suspicious that everything goes right.

[radiant vigil]

Pretty much waiting for the coin to drop

[steel parcel]

do i wait for bf to wake up or do i sneak out to put some lures down and hope he doesn’t notice

[radiant vigil]

Sneak out

[steel parcel]

also, is taking his phone to put lures down for his picnicker medal considered multi accounting

[charred rapids]

I would say it’s a fine line haha

But why worry about being judged for that, I do it

Without my two accounts I wouldn’t be able to duo rayquaza

[steel parcel]

i am very impressed haha

[radiant vigil]

I think most pogo player multi account lol

It's rarer to find someone who doesn't

[steel parcel]

i don’t have the hand eye coordination for that lol. i get my irl friend to knock me out of gyms if i’m in too long

[charred rapids]

Yeah well

I don’t have friends

[steel parcel]

but i have to bribe him for tacos each time so usually i just let them sit there lol

[radiant vigil]

Whatever my bf gets is mine 😂 and I'll borrow him for raids

[charred rapids]

I need me someone that feeds me tacos to knock them out of gyms

[steel parcel]

aww you’ll find your taco friend

[charred rapids]

One day

[radiant vigil]

I knock myself out with my alt

[charred rapids]

Milli is basically female me

[radiant vigil]

We're like the same level, same start date and all

[steel parcel]

that’s so cute

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

wait. are you just each other’s alts

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

Different team

[steel parcel]

has anyone seen metajesus and millia in the same room

[charred rapids]

You keep quiet now ya hear?

[steel parcel]

at the same time

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Has anyone seen Qt with a shiny ferroseed

In the same room

[steel parcel]

for the love of arceus will you leave it alone

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

omg your discord names even start with the same letter and have the same number of syllables

[radiant vigil]

you're over thinking it

[steel parcel]

nonsense, i can’t think at all

[charred rapids]

Yeah now you’re reaching

[radiant vigil]

But if we're counting noodle as an alt, my alt has 3 syllables too

[charred rapids]

Stop giving her ammo

[radiant vigil]

it's valor though

[charred rapids]

Yeah the wrong colour

There is no wrong colour, unless u red

[radiant vigil]

[steel parcel]

better dead than red

[charred rapids]

Amen

[radiant vigil]

Yeah red stinky, I feel dirty with valor alt

[charred rapids]

Can smell it from here stinky head

[radiant vigil]

I lost the pw for the yellow account with the cool username

[charred rapids]

I’d give you the third account I had (locked out of now as the original owner took it back) but the name, uhhhh yeah

Just saying, was a shock that the name actually got through as appropriate

[radiant vigil]

Oh dear 😂 I've seen people try to get away with things

They got forced to change it later

[charred rapids]

Well I got away with it it was suppose to be a joke, it was also the last time it could change so now the owner is stuck with it

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

One would say it’s a mega”frustrated”granny

[radiant vigil]

I think Aussies in general are more tolerant of stuff like that tho

I get you

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

That's too funny

Or are we just horrible people

[charred rapids]

It was funny until I realised it was permanent

[radiant vigil]

I think if it's reported though they can still change it

[charred rapids]

But funny again the owner locked me out and wants it back basically, have fun bud

[radiant vigil]

That's funny now

[charred rapids]

You know how many gyms I’ve had it in and not once was it reported

I begged people to report me, I’ve tried

[radiant vigil]

Your area might be chill? XD

[charred rapids]

A little too chill, I’ve seen worse.

[radiant vigil]

People are snobs here, I guarantee someone would get upset here

[charred rapids]

One in specific that disgusts even me, it was beyond too far.

[radiant vigil]

Ooft, yeah people have definitely reported and forced user name changes here

[charred rapids]

This name didn’t need to be changed, the account needed to be blocked and the person needed to be arrested

[radiant vigil]

If they need to be arrested now that's a different matter

[charred rapids]

Oooooooh yeah....

[radiant vigil]

I probably don't want to know

[charred rapids]

Nah, you’d want to hunt em.

Still waiting for admins to come take this guy away, I got popcorn and everything ready

[radiant vigil]

Oh I know some salty people who are good at pogo hunting at least

[charred rapids]

Oh? What do you mean by that?

Not sure I follow

[radiant vigil]

Pokestops incite war

There was this massive photo voting war to force a stop to convert into a gym

[charred rapids]

Oh wow

The community is so ridiculous

[radiant vigil]

One dude lost, managed to move a gym, got another gym removed from the game as a result

And now the other guys are retaliating

They're going to move the other dude's gym so it vanishes in pogo, and it's easier if you have ingress too

I thought it was a bit much, like it's a game chill y'all

[charred rapids]

Uhhh yeah...that’s a little much, but we also have petty ingress players that review and remove stops/gyms here too

[radiant vigil]

Ah this guy has pogo and ingress XD useful for pulling pogo stuff out of the ether

Yeah ingressers I won't say anything else but man, some of them have attitude

Got mad at one of the stops I added, it was gone 10 days later

[charred rapids]

Yeah that sounds like a very specific player here, used to play pogo, grew mad hate for the community so he decided to go around tearing it down

[radiant vigil]

why

Play is less stressful when you're soloing don't need to deal with community drama lols

[charred rapids]

Yeah our local chats and stuff are chaotic, no one lucky trades no matter how many times ya tag them, like hey what’s the point? I have 30+ lucky friends and I’d be surprised if I get 3 done

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I just dm people directly and it works out

Usually the people I'm lucky friends with are good old timers so we get along

I gave up on group chats, I just have smaller chats with like the 5 people I'm closest with

You only need that many to raid

[charred rapids]

Yeah I’m contemplating on leaving them, I don’t use them

There’s always a fear of accidentally sending a chat of 200 people the wrong photo too.

[radiant vigil]

Mute it and have a separate chat with your close buddies, cos realistically you end up raiding with them the most anyway

Lol I've seen a lot of 'message was deleted'

And 'oops wrong chat' after

[charred rapids]

Nah I’m leaving it, I don’t use it at all.

I can either duo it or I get people here to raid, met a lot of more grateful and organised players here lol

I’ll probably use that as a manipulation tactic, leaving these chats permanently, come trade with me ya lazy fricks

[radiant vigil]

just mic drop and exit silently, see who messages you out of desperation 😂

having duoable 5 star raids has been like the best thing since sliced bread though no need to wait, just do ittt

[analog steeple]

Y’all make me so grateful my local discord is so chill

We meet up and get beers for raid hour and otherwise just chill

[radiant vigil]

you get beers for raid hour?

that's pretty cool

pre covid we did use to hold events for comm days and stuff, but covid kinda killed that plus we had a discord vs messenger chat war thing happening so yeah

[analog steeple]

Yeah a group of us meet up and remote raid for the hour! Pretty fun and every week more of us are joining as we get vaccinated

[radiant vigil]

i've since moved and i have no idea who plays locally here don't really need to tho lol

[analog steeple]

Ohhh lol I think I missed any early drama

I’ve come in to a peaceful server lol

[radiant vigil]

yeah i guess early days were chaotic, now local chats are less of a thing cos remotes XD

you technically can play without meeting people, great for anti-social peeps

[primal sluice]

im afraid to open my game T.T

[radiant vigil]

xp? if you know some is coming you can put an egg on asap and catch it

[steel parcel]

i have some lv 48+ players holding gifts hostage but i can be patient :)

[primal sluice]

XD still too early for me atm need to wait abt another hour and half :3

[radiant vigil]

usually if they're local, they're holding for 11am comm day XD

[primal sluice]

XD i got no local here i think im probably the only one playing in this area lmaooo

[steel parcel]

someone’s been sitting on my gift for 3 comm days now lol

[radiant vigil]

back when there were ex raid passes i used to send them to force friendship levels up

[radiant vigil]

do they still play @_@ that's quite a while...

[steel parcel]

they got in 600+ raids during that bonus dust challenge so

[radiant vigil]

im fairly certain the dude on my list one day off hasn't played

[steel parcel]

yeah they still play

[analog steeple]

I’m over here grumbling about someone holding me hostage for a month

And you have that like x 3

[charred rapids]

600 raids, the heck did he raid and why

[steel parcel]

idk and idk

[analog steeple]

And did he get a shiny from it at least??

[charred rapids]

Shiny what? It was lando

That was the week we had to unlock the dust, rival week.

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

So what the heck was even worth raiding 600 times

[analog steeple]

[charred rapids]

$600 for nothing

[primal sluice]

nothing :V just to kill boredom maybe :V

[charred rapids]

I don’t throw hundreds at a mobile game out of boredom

I throw hundreds at cardboard cards

[primal sluice]

XD in any game i play and i know i can earn some in game cash somehow i dont even think of spending on the game XD

[steel parcel]

you are stronger than i am

registeel weekend was when i first started spending money on pogo and once you start it’s hard to stop

[charred rapids]

Everyone seems to be stronger than the guy willing to spend $600 on lando therian raids and probably a couple clauncher and skrelp

[primal sluice]

rn im hoping it stop rain before my CS start XD

[steel parcel]

i don’t spend more than $20 a month but that still feels like a lot lol

[primal sluice]

ik the feels of it T.T

[charred rapids]

I’ve spent maybe $600 for mewtwo IN TOTAL but not in one wave, goddam.

[primal sluice]

and then when u look at the money u spend on it u start be thinking like damn im wasting my money XD

[steel parcel]

what if they released a medal for $$$ spent on pogo

i’d delete the app, i don’t want that kind of knowledge

[charred rapids]

Yeah I’d be platinum

But I wouldn’t like to know how far into platinum I’m in

[primal sluice]

lmaooo i wouldnt even get a piece of that badge XD

[steel parcel]

i know irl people who are spending their unemployment checks on pogo

[charred rapids]

I mean depends on the situation we aren’t really wasting money, it will take a long time but I can send all these shines to home

[steel parcel]

they get way more shinies than me so at least they get something!

[charred rapids]

So I still get something from pogo even when the app itself is deserted

[primal sluice]

is 200 pokeball gonna be enough for a rural player for this cd if use incense XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah, just focus on the challenge mons

[primal sluice]

isnt it like u just catch it once during the event and that is it?

[charred rapids]

I seen a couple people get kinda close to failing though in other servers so I wish you luck.

For the challenge? Yeah it ticks it off

[primal sluice]

yes i do hope i can get the event mons off

[charred rapids]

Make sure you lucky egg it before you claim it

[primal sluice]

yessir seems like imma be using 2 lucky egg this event XD

one for friendship and one for that one

[charred rapids]

Yeah that’s 350,000, there is a visual glitch that will say 175,000 but trust me it’s doubled

[primal sluice]

:3 seems like imma hit 35 this event if it goes well :3

[charred rapids]

[primal sluice]

time to start praying for these excellent throws XD

[brisk shadow]

Make sure you got your fast catch technique down pat too

[steel parcel]

muscle memory is key

by the end of every comm day i’m nailing excellents no matter how small the target is

[primal sluice]

XD guys rem im in rural area so even if i use incense it will take 30 sec to spawn a monster T.T

[steel parcel]

once you’re level 38 you can nominate pokestops

[primal sluice]

yea that is what im aiming for atm

[steel parcel]

there’s a spot in my backyard where i can reach the pokestop in the neighbor’s backyard

[primal sluice]

but not keeping a high hope on getting it in the game thou T.T

like i can nominate both gym and pokestop cuz like there is this huge welcome sign saying welcome to the country after people the airport and also at my neighbor there is this shelter where family would come to take a boat to go across the river and so on

[steel parcel]

is there any way i can help? bf just joined wayfarer but idk if he can review stops outside our area

tbh there are so many trash stops out here. sometimes i spend more time submitting corrections bc of typos/bad descriptions than catching

[charred rapids]

Also adventure out, a lot of things can be stops signs, plaques, shelters, playgrounds, churches, anything historic, anything that’s out of the ordinary.

[primal sluice]

i meannnn idk if there is anything that can be help tbh XD or i can send u the description first before nominating and so on

[steel parcel]

a welcome sign sounds like a fantastic pokestop! and i’d be happy to proofread anything

[charred rapids]

Yeah definitely a good start.

[primal sluice]

XD only shelter and some signs like a welcome sign for people who cam in to the country and leaving the airport or those little signs showing which direction is the airport and so on

[primal sluice]

the porblem here is that it isnt clean and some what dirty T.T

[steel parcel]

providing some historical/cultural context makes for a more interesting stop

would you be permitted to host a local clean-up event? even so, i don’t think the cleanliness of the stop will really keep it from being accepted

[charred rapids]

Yeah directional signs aren’t really worth unless they have artwork of some sort.

Any artwork of any kind, basketball or tennis courts? There’s gotta be something

[tight pilot]

Some kids out kinda near where i used to live in the country with no stops painted a big rock like a frog, put it like at the end of their driveway (more on the road to place the stop) and took a pic then got that as a stop lol so just make yiur own stops

[primal sluice]

nope i cant host that T.T

[steel parcel]

just make sure the description is more than “look at the chemtrails in this picture i took! this is a nice place”

[primal sluice]

will see how things go on my end if i dont get a pokestop or gym then it ez wt it ez :3

[steel parcel]

can you paint utility boxes? or are there any currently?

i’ve seen so many painted utility boxes as pokestops

[charred rapids]

Hell is there a damn tree that people hang weird crap off of

[steel parcel]

that sounds ominous

[charred rapids]

Nah people hang “flip flops” as you yanks call em, on trees here

[primal sluice]

no i dont think so T.T never seen anything as such

[steel parcel]

yanks???

[untold breach]

thongs on trees

[charred rapids]

It’s great

[steel parcel]

wow. i actually love it

[primal sluice]

nope no artist in my area and to do crazy paintings and such

[charred rapids]

Found this tree in the middle of nowhere

[primal sluice]

[untold breach]

[charred rapids]

[charred rapids]

Yeah that works qt thanks for the clear up

Looks at all my cfriends

[untold breach]

to be fair

[steel parcel]

[untold breach]

it works with the australian word for friend

[steel parcel]

what’s that?

[charred rapids]

It’s a bad word

[untold breach]

something i should not repeat here

[charred rapids]

Can be extremely offensive in some countries

[steel parcel]

but then why is it a word for friend

[untold breach]

because australians

[steel parcel]

OH

[charred rapids]

Because Australians are great

[tight pilot]

Lol

[untold breach]

LMAO

[steel parcel]

oh

[charred rapids]

and we call strangers mates, pretty backwards huh

[tight pilot]

I got asked my favourite swear word in an interview and that was my word of choice... they were quite shocked

[untold breach]

upside down opposite land

amazing

[charred rapids]

No country can say that word quite like an Australian

[untold breach]

the only one that comes close is england

well, the UK in general

[primal sluice]

mellow how ur event go?

[steel parcel]

i experimentally whispered it and it felt wrong

[tight pilot]

Definitely not the same here in Canada, very rare to hear and im sure they were expecting me to say the f word or something

[charred rapids]

[tight pilot]

Event? Im same timezone as you Devil! So starts in 30 mins for me too

[charred rapids]

Imagine just hearing it down the street and not as an insult

[primal sluice]

o yea LMAOOOO i forgot hahahahaa

[steel parcel]

i have been called that a few times in public lol

usually when i ignore the first “hey girl”

[tight pilot]

Lol i’d be turning around so quick like what you just call me?

[steel parcel]

i guess they were just lost aussies trying to make friends

[charred rapids]

Meanwhile you say that to anyone here and it’s like yeah whats up c##t

Maybe America is backwards, I mean you guys still use miles per hour, Fahrenheit etc.

[steel parcel]

my parents were educated in the british system so i grew up even more backwards using centrigrade and kms

but i learned the one true way™️

[charred rapids]

I will give it to you guys though, that pizza on navy pier is fire.

Weird to have a massive bean in the middle of Chicago though

[steel parcel]

i’ve never had it and just looked it up

[charred rapids]

Basically a pizza casserole

[steel parcel]

and apparently it’s near lake michigan... in illinois. idk america sometimes

[charred rapids]

It’s in Chicago, navy pier

[steel parcel]

i was in chicago and never had a single chicago deep dish. i am ashamed

[charred rapids]

Yeah you should be it was amazing, I’ve never experienced pizza like that before

[steel parcel]

i’ve tried every pizza place in washington dc and never found the perfect deep dish

obviously i was looking in the wrong place

BF IS ONLINE i’m going to try the c word on him

[radiant vigil]

you guys are talking about pizza right as i start getting hungry

[full flicker]
