[radiant vigil]

if you’re on the wrong team you’re screwed essentially XD

even if you took out a tower, you’d die straight away. plus you actually had to unlock gym spots to get in via prestigious

[primal sluice]

i think my country is dominated with a lot of red players XD

[radiant vigil]

it’s why ace trainer or whatever badge was like dead for ages, because before you only got it by levelling up a gym lol

[charred rapids]

And when you do unlock gym spots there was no timer for you to get in, your spot wasn’t secured, someone could easily snipe it

[radiant vigil]

omfg

don’t remind me, shitheads

[charred rapids]

My spot was sniped levelling a full gym to 10

[radiant vigil]

same thing happened to me too -_-

[charred rapids]

I saw the little buggers grin and I’ve never wanted to choke a kid before

[primal sluice]

sound like fun game back then huh XD

[radiant vigil]

it wasn’t LOL. I quit

[primal sluice]

good thing i wasnt a active player back then XD

[radiant vigil]

Valor had all the gyms, and also there were less back then

[charred rapids]

Yeah that was my biggest break with pogo

Lasted a couple months.

[radiant vigil]

i came back the day they added raids

[charred rapids]

Didn’t touch it or look at the game but yeah raids drew me back

[radiant vigil]

lol you and me, same pogo journey

[tight pilot]

Yeaaaah Valor representing, I knew i chose the right team off the start... too bad now mystic dominates like everywhere

[radiant vigil]

i remember being hyped over that first raid, it was a chikorita HAHA

[radiant vigil]

it’s really down to the area lol. it was either all red, all blue, or all yellow (rare). you just had to be in the right spot XD

[charred rapids]

Valor sucks, always has

[tight pilot]

Basically who had the biggest group of friends playing together lol

[radiant vigil]

I’m forever salty towards Valor kek

[tight pilot]

The audacity

[charred rapids]

They started as over the top, aggressive and full of testosterone and rage

Like when I took a red gym, all I heard was a red player screaming and wanting to punch my lights out

[radiant vigil]

true true (there were like the odd good ones, but unfortunately most of the ones i knew were like that haha)

[tight pilot]

“Rage rage fuckin rageeeee”

[charred rapids]

Reds were known to be just mad all the time

[primal sluice]

someone plz tell cliff to get away from me T.T

[radiant vigil]

maybe Aussie + Valor = bad combo, more relaxed in canada?

[tight pilot]

Well i stopped playing after summer 2016 and came back early 2019 so im sad i missed my teams glory days

[radiant vigil]

eh i don’t really care about team glory, I make the glory if needed ha

[charred rapids]

Blues were massive egotists and yellows were just dumb

[tight pilot]

We’re kinda being run out here tbh mostly blue and now al the new players are going Yellow (weird i know right )

[radiant vigil]

very accurate

[charred rapids]

One big happy family

[radiant vigil]

every time we saw a yellow gym, it was like ‘omg, it exists’

[charred rapids]

There was none, I was barely keeping mine afloat

[radiant vigil]

i guess the hold ‘instinct is hard mode’ applies everywhere?

[charred rapids]

We were to submissive getting dominated by both teams that didn’t even pay attention to us, red and blue were the two kids fighting and yellow was the one eating glue in the corner

[primal sluice]

a whole me when i saw 2 yellow gym

give my alt hope to join a gym lmaooo

[radiant vigil]

the memes were hilarious tho. saw some cray stuff on fb ahah

[charred rapids]

Oh yeah and the nicknames were bad too

Mistake, instink

[radiant vigil]

problem is in a big city, it was spoofer wars, so literally Valor vs mystic spoofers were going at it

[charred rapids]

I forgot Valors

How each team would be in their own groups, oh man it was like pokegangs

It was so bad the first year, but so good

[radiant vigil]

lol my main pogo squad is literally all mystic + adopted instinct lol

he didn’t bow to our mystic peer pressure when they released the team changing medallion haha

[tight pilot]

When you roll up on another squad at the same gym

[primal sluice]

the first time i went to canada and the game was hot back then and i was with my cousin and someone shouted there is a lapras everyone started running and poor me dont know wt is going on anymore XD

[radiant vigil]

it was more like ‘we’ll take this one and you can have this’

[tight pilot]

Ehhh you’ve been to my frozen country of igloos and maple syrup?

[primal sluice]

i was there 2 years ago and see first snow the same night i had to come back :V

i was like yesh i dont have to deal ith the cold lmaooo

[radiant vigil]

i wanna see canada one day, i hear y’all nice

had a few friends who did exchange at UBC

[primal sluice]

imma be coming back for my college studies this year if i got flight to go over

[tight pilot]

Ouuu nice! First snowfall is always nice and pretty, its when its -40 and whipping snow in the wind that it starts to be like “ok im over this”

[charred rapids]

But now Valor is an extinct species here

It’s blues and yellows fighting for the gyms.

[tight pilot]

Canada is a super nice country overall for sure! I’ve never been out west to BC but have some friends out there and its beautiful, even out east is nice in like Newfoundland/ nova scotia area! Ngl tho dont come to Ontario, overpopulated and filled with dummies now

[primal sluice]

where in canada are u in?

[radiant vigil]

i know Quebec is very French

[tight pilot]

Ouf yeah i erm,... forgot about quebec... dont go there

[radiant vigil]

and good snows for ski 🎿

[tight pilot]

Theyre angry frenchies and dont wanna be part of canada

Quebec has some nice hills for skiing / snowboarding but nothing like out west (and still not worth going to Quebec) lel

[radiant vigil]

i saw Montreal in a kdrama...pretty much all i know about it haha

[tight pilot]

Ontario ive bounced around from out near Toronto / to out near Ottawa and now im kinda in the middle of both of em (closer to Toronto)

[radiant vigil]

but you’re telling us not to go to Ontario? 👀

[primal sluice]

ill be in toronto scabroughtown if that is how u spell it T.T

[tight pilot]

Haha yeah Montreal is honestly super nice but they’ll attack you if youre not a local, like cops if they see you have an ontario license plate you’re getting pulled over no ifs ands or buts

[radiant vigil]

[tight pilot]

Ahh the good ol scrab yeah Scarborough is convenient toronto, close enough to all major parts of toronto to get to in like 10/15 mins but still nice and on the outskirts! My sister lived there when going to uni so i visited often!

Montreal has nice historic buildings and is like super pretty tho & lots to do especially if you like nightlife/clubs and such but i mean not atm i guess because we’re all still in lockdown

[tight pilot]

You have family there or something? 🤔

[primal sluice]

o btw on pogo if i play UL it will alter my ranking from GL right?

[primal sluice]

yes have a good set u can say XD

[tight pilot]

Are you higher than Rank 20? Like where it just shows the actual rank yet? If so yeah it’ll change / if not you’re good as it just counts wins up to rank 20 (need a set amount of wins, loses dont count and your overall “rank” is in the background)

[primal sluice]

im on flat rank 20 i think probably half way to rank 21 and have abt 1400-1500 cant rem

[tight pilot]

Ahh then yeah it’ll affect your rank! Could try remix league or something might be a little easier on ya as i know you dont have a dedicated UL team

[primal sluice]

well we shall leave UL for now and stay out of ranking for until great league is back again XD

[charred rapids]

Are we talking about moose and hockey pucks

[radiant vigil]

moose?

[tight pilot]

Sorry I was just riding my moose to the ice rink down the parkway the mountys almost caught me speeding

[radiant vigil]

oh you ride em like we do kangaroo, gotcha

mountys are like police?

[tight pilot]

Yes ma’am, and polarbears in the winter when the snow is too thick and yeah except i dont think like anywhere still has “mountys” maybe alberta / Saskatchewan but i doubt they still call them that

Although we do still have the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police)

[radiant vigil]

they ride...horses?

we do have police riding horses sometimes here, just casually in the middle of the cbd

[tight pilot]

I hope not anymore but I wouldnt put it past em and LOL i’ve seen that the rare time but i think only ever in like parades so tbh i have no clue... now i gotta ask HonYeet when i see him on next I know hes a province west of me and Ontario seems to think were just little usa here

[radiant vigil]

that’s not good 👀

[tight pilot]

Ahh yeah okay so RCMP has jurisdiction everywhere minus Quebec / Ontario ... makes sense but i doubt many if any still ride horses, maybe up in Yukon / territories

And yeah definitely not bc usa why i wanna move like anywhere but here but family is all here so

[primal sluice]

i wanna try horse riding T.T

[pulsar thunder]

Eh fellow Canadians howdy

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Oh look shhh shhh Milli there’s one in its natural habitat

UHHHH UM SORRY ABOOT DAT AYE?

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

I’m kidding guys, I prefer Canadians over well, nearly everyone else honestly.

[pulsar thunder]

Hahaha I’ve only met one person that’s ever pronounced about like that

[charred rapids]

I’ve been to your airport in Vancouver, actually wanted to stay.....like I didn’t want to fly to America, I would of been content in the airport

[pulsar thunder]

Lol nice

[radiant vigil]

America sounds scary from where we are

[charred rapids]

It was scary, I didn’t like it as much as I thought I would

[radiant vigil]

My friends who were in Canada only had good things to say haha

[charred rapids]

It had its moments, always have memories of that place but, I honestly would of preferred a Canada trip just based on how amazing their airport was

[radiant vigil]

My bf thinks cos he's Asian he's going to get beat up in America

Lol have you been to changi airport?

[charred rapids]

Nah

[radiant vigil]

There's a giant slide

[charred rapids]

America was my first and last overseas flight

[radiant vigil]

Changi is wild, it's probable the nicest airport you'll ever see

[pulsar thunder]

Lol where in the US was he going ?

[tight pilot]

Is the slide how you get onto the airplane?

Cause that kinda sounds fun....

[charred rapids]

Who cares it’s a slide

I’ll beat anyone’s ass that tries to beat me to it

[radiant vigil]

There were pokemon Christmas decorations there the last time I flew out 🤣

[tight pilot]

Also hello fellow Canadian, i hope you’re not from Quebec.... if so I apologize... kinda sorta

[radiant vigil]

[pulsar thunder]

No, from just outside Toronto lol

[charred rapids]

Wow Mitch, you’re subtle

Ya bloody savage

[tight pilot]

Loll they dont wanna be part of us anyway its okay

[pulsar thunder]

Lol I think Montreal is cool though

[tight pilot]

Montreal is cool for a visit... not to stay / live, i’ll give ya that

[pulsar thunder]

Lol have actually been thinking of moving there

[tight pilot]

Plus la ronde used to stay open all night so rollercoasters @ 2 am on the island was pretty cool

[pulsar thunder]

I like French enough and need a change of scenery

[tight pilot]

And oh damn, well if you speak french & are into gangs you’ll do aight

[pulsar thunder]

I can speak a little enough to get by but need the practice

[tight pilot]

Ehh thats good enough, quebec french is botched anyway and half the time they speak a mixture of it! I have some family in montreal and then some in Dorval & Laval, imo Laval is a nice sublet of Quebec and pretty close to montreal! I could never live there tho i’d be pulling my hair out and i can speak a good amount of french

[steel parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/most-popular-girls-in-school-walk-away-barbie-au-revoir-goodbye-gif-11926910

[tight pilot]

But honestly i could see that from living in toronto, i’d probably want a change too! Ive never lived in Toronto just outside of it for a year and a half but can be a little hectic for sure ... + doug ford is there so thats like a problem in and of itself

[pulsar thunder]

Oh wow yeah if I do move, it would be a fresh start for me

[steel parcel]

me, an american reading this thread:

[tight pilot]

LOL

[pulsar thunder]

Hahaha

Don’t they speak a lil French or at least mixed with Creole in New Orleans?

[steel parcel]

yes, but it’s hard to understand lol

if it’s not strict parisian french i’m like quoi

[pulsar thunder]

Oh so you understand French?

[radiant vigil]

Me reading this from the other end of the globe:

[tight pilot]

Oh yeah I meant to mention actually from all the hate on murica that out of everywhere i’ve been down there i’ve never had an issue! Nyc was a great experience, went to florida a lot on family trips when younger (clouded by tourism so that one kinda counts bc ive heard some crazy stories come outta forida lol) but i’ve been to Boston / Philly / Washington and they were all nice! I think murica gets a worse rep than it deserves half the time from one idiot voicing his opinion too loud but thats bound to happen when the population of one city surpasses all of Canada

[steel parcel]

yeah i studied french for 13 years. i will never admit this to a french person tho

[pulsar thunder]

Lmao 9 for me

[steel parcel]

did i say i studied french? i don’t know her

[radiant vigil]

I studied French in high school then dropped it 🤣

Worse cos I'm half French

[pulsar thunder]

I dropped in since my friends weren’t taking it but kept up with apps lol

[primal sluice]

well yes the word french some ppl told me that i need to learn french before going over to canada T.T

[tight pilot]

I theoretically did 14 (if you count Jk/Sk LOL) but even still speaking french to my family in quebec im like tf did you say ?! More than half the time bc sooo many different like variations of french and quebec french is just so odd lol

[steel parcel]

my french teacher used to say they gobble their words

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah we learn metro French which I think is good

Went to Paris two years ago and they speak fast lol

[steel parcel]

or maybe their vowels. she was definitely about that parisian french master race

[tight pilot]

Yeah thats what we went off too, you were in “french immersion” or whatever they call it right err?

[pulsar thunder]

Parisians also blend words together like they say j’suis pas and stuff like that

[charred rapids]

My vowels are bugger, fair dinkum, mate, bastard and c##t

That’s all I need to know

[pulsar thunder]

No just a regular school, I was actually recommended to go to a French high school but my dad would have had to wake up early to drive me lol

[tight pilot]

Dinkum ....

[primal sluice]

the way u guys say cxxt in my country we say it skxxt XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah mate, fair dinkum.

It means true

Like aww yeah mate true? Fair dinkum

[pulsar thunder]

What language is that LOL

[charred rapids]

I’m an aussssssie

[tight pilot]

Ohhh lol fair sounds like my rents but honestly dont worry you didnt miss out french immersion lowkey blowed bc when it came to highschool they switched us over to english for select classes like math/science but kept everything else in french like geo/history/ etc & it just confused us bc we had 8+ years of doing math in french and yeah not the greatest system lel

[pulsar thunder]

Oooh nice have had some friends go there

Yeah lol French numbers I struggle with

[charred rapids]

Well I hope they enjoyed their stay on this desolate land

[tight pilot]

And never would have guessed dinkum meant true lolol

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah it’s crazy I think I know of one girl that stayed

[tight pilot]

It was mostly like the terminology and everything being backwards & stupid little things like comma’s instead of decimal points kek

[charred rapids]

Metal’s Australian dictionary

Today we learn dinkum.

Next week we learn the word drongo.

[steel parcel]

drongo? like ivan drongo

i saw that movie

[charred rapids]

No drongo like dumb, stupid, moronic

[steel parcel]

oh yeah i saw that movie

[tight pilot]

Feels like the first time i went to Toronto as a yute and heard “wagwan” & was like was that english sir?

[steel parcel]

okay let me guess

[tight pilot]

Like a dongo ?

[pulsar thunder]

That’s the Jamaican influence slang Mitch lol

[steel parcel]

wagwan = “is that your dog, can i pet him, he looks like a good boy”

[pulsar thunder]

I’ve definitely used it but I think it’s common in the UK as well

[tight pilot]

Yeah but i never been to Jamaica shh

[steel parcel]

just going off of context clues here

[pulsar thunder]

Wagwan is like what’s up

What’s going on

[tight pilot]

Yeah toronto steals all their slang sadly but

[steel parcel]

oh so basically what i said then

[tight pilot]

Pretty much yes

[pulsar thunder]

I don’t know about that lol

[primal sluice]

ammmm i thought this means whatsup XD

[steel parcel]

on the east coast everyone ignores each other so having your dog out for a walk is basically an open invitation to start a conversation

[pulsar thunder]

Isn’t that like any major city though

[primal sluice]

like in my country which is guyana we have this creole which are kinda close to jamaican language and we use wuh gwan basically how we say whatsup

[charred rapids]

Wagwan

[tight pilot]

So the only people with friends in their neighborhood are those with doggos?

[charred rapids]

Huh I prefer g’day or fuck off but ya know both are welcoming

[tight pilot]

G’day sir 🤠

[charred rapids]

Fuck off

[pulsar thunder]

You can also say what’s gwannjng to say how’s it going

[charred rapids]

Nah I’m kidding

[tight pilot]

I think ahlie is stolen from jamaican slang too no?

[charred rapids]

[steel parcel]

yeah but even then sometimes i pass a dog with kind eyes and a waggy tail and his owner goes out of the way to avoid contact

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah lmao ahlie is sorta like oh yeah or is that true

[charred rapids]

I kinda assumed wagwan was wagon with a funny accent

Sorry

[pulsar thunder]

Hahahaha

[radiant vigil]

Dw me too

[steel parcel]

danny devito, you don’t have to apologize for anything. keep being the national treasure you are

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

I should probs hit the sack, damn it's late here

[charred rapids]

It’s late here too apparently

[pulsar thunder]

Lol bredrin is another one and that means brother in a casual sense

[radiant vigil]

My turn to tell ya to go to bed metal

[charred rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/danny-de-vito-no-shaking-head-gif-9684558

[radiant vigil]

[tight pilot]

Sleep, what is that

[charred rapids]

No idea

I assume it’s when Milli powers down

[tight pilot]

[charred rapids]

wagwan my gees

why are the incarnate formes coming back

[pulsar thunder]

gwannin still and I need them for the missions

[charred rapids]

They are back to fill in the time

[coarse pagoda]

I need to give 3 gifts to a friend on pogo for an achievement. Does anyone want 3 gifts? Just need to get the achievement done.

[charred rapids]

ye sure

[primal sluice]

tell cliff to leave my alt alone T.T

[tight pilot]

LOL since balloons have been back i’ve had 4 cliff’s in a row but idont mind still need shiny aero

[primal sluice]

i dont have the pokemon to fight his first pokemon T.T

how nice cliff on both of my alt T.T

[pulsar thunder]

Lol I'm still in shock that I didn't break my phone when I couldn't catch it

[tight pilot]

Kek on the alt yeah probs not, use the insta switch off the start, may help and anything with fast charging charged moves to keep the delay going

[charred rapids]

just use swampert

burns shield very fast

[woeful pulsar]

https://pokemongolive.com/post/pokemongofest2021-save-the-date/

[tight pilot]

Yeah his alt that he legit just made isnt going to have a swampert lmao

And just seen that

[pulsar thunder]

Swampert lol I've never even see a Mudkip yet I don't think

[charred rapids]

And there it is, go fest where we will spend all our money and time

[cyan quarry]

Imma point to the logo- the colour and notes: hinting its mythical- likely meloetta

https://c.tenor.com/9FpTm8aQC8cAAAAM/meloetta-spin.gif

[charred rapids]

Bruh you gonna tell me they’re gonna skip over my boi shaymin like he doesn’t exist

That’s rough

When you read the announcement also down the bottom it’s “stay tuned for more details” emphasising on the tuned is kinda a dead giveaway

[odd glade]

Please please please...

I am waiting for a legit melo for years

[charred rapids]

Yeah it will be melo, too many hints not to be.

[odd glade]

Awesome awesome

https://tenor.com/view/money-shutup-take-gif-7953571

[surreal parrot]

I won't be able to transfer it to home SwSh though without having got another one

[primal sluice]

is home like a different app needed to be download or something?

[ivory halo]

Yes

[surreal parrot]

Yep

[ivory halo]

Instead of transferring all of my extra pokemon in Pokemon go I send them to Pokemon home so I can use them in mainline games.

[surreal parrot]

And paid for subsription to take full advantage of

[ivory halo]

yes^

[steel parcel]

i need meloetta in my life

also meloetta is my favorite mythical and july’s my birthday month. it’s gotta be melo

[primal sluice]

what is the name of the app?

is it on ios?

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah you can get home on switch and mobile

Should just be Pokemon Home

[primal sluice]

o aight thanks :3

[radiant vigil]

Home also let's you get meltan box FYI

[final tulip]

is shadow venusaur any good

[hardy minnow]

Is today’s spotlight hour mon shiny version available ?

Ping me plz ima close app

[radiant vigil]

It's finneon, no

[radiant vigil]

It'll need frenzy plant

[final tulip]

i see

what sort of tm do you need

[hardy minnow]

Rip ty for answering

[radiant vigil]

Unfortunately you actually need to wait for the rocket event where you can use normal charge tm to get rid of frustration. Then you can use either elite charge tm or evolve it into venu during an event where it can learn frenzy plant

[final tulip]

i see ty

would i be able to teach it frenzy plant if i make it learn a new move?

[analog steeple]

Yes but that’s a bit pricey

Oh wait. @final tulip yes, but you need an Elite TM

[final tulip]

i see

[analog steeple]

Venosaur is ideal with frenzy plant and sludge bomb anyways so the second move wouldn’t be a waste

Just will be a bit before you can use

[final tulip]

i think i'll just wait until the event since i only have 1 elite tm

[analog steeple]

Yeah good call. Those elite TMs are stingy

[primal sluice]

XD i still cant find the app :V

[pulsar thunder]

Are you on iPhone or Android?

[crude nacelle]

Pokémon HOME
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pokémon-home/id1485352913
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.pokemon.pokemonhome

The iOS link won't work if you're outside the US, but you should be able to easily find it in the app store.

Alternatively, you can go here: https://home.pokemon.com/
and click on the app store icon for the app store you use.

[primal sluice]

o well nvm then im iphone and outside of US

so it wouldnt work for me

[radiant vigil]

i'm on ios and i am not in the US and I have the app

it might be to do with which version of ios you're running? i have ios14

[primal sluice]

not finding it on iphone XD

[radiant vigil]

which ios do you have?

i have it on my ipad, it worked on my iphone 7, else idk, maybe it's a country thing :/

[primal sluice]

i have 14.4.2

[radiant vigil]

hmm might be country then 😦

if it's available you should be able to search it directly in the app store

[primal sluice]

o well imma just leave it be then XD

[pulsar thunder]

This is what it looks like in the Canadian App Store

Weird how you can’t find it

[radiant vigil]

looks the same like that in the aussie app store

[primal sluice]

im not in canada :V

[pulsar thunder]

Oh sorry misread lol

[primal sluice]

i was in canada before XD

[radiant vigil]

yeah if it's not searchable likely it's not there, especially if the link via the home websie above doesn't work

[primal sluice]

meh just yeeting back a few pokemon back to company wouldnt hurt much :3

[radiant vigil]

yeah im surprised it's not there, the yeeting is great

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah lol which remote country are you in rn that Nintendo/Niantic hasn't found to get money from

[primal sluice]

u bet they wouldnt lmaooo my country mostly if we know we can earn in game cash somehow we gonna be hardly spending on the game XD

[primal sluice]

plz tell cliff leave me alone T.T

all the balloon is cliff reeeeeeeeeee

[radiant vigil]

i've literally gotten everyone but cliff, you must be taking them

[pulsar thunder]

And lol only thing I can think of that might work is to get a VPN

[primal sluice]

u can do the honor and take him i dont need him

[pulsar thunder]

For cliff, I usually use a Vaporeon and some fighting types

[primal sluice]

i dont have strong counter pokemon for him

[radiant vigil]

yeah essentially you'd need to download the app via another country's app store

[primal sluice]

soon enough ill move to canada for study

so then ill download it XD

[radiant vigil]

you might want to change the country on your apple id, might still be tied to where you are though

not sure if it moves with location automatically or if you need to manual change it

[pulsar thunder]

I think that might work, I'm pretty sure I did that when PoGO was first released back 2016 in the US a few weeks ahead of me

[primal sluice]

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE both alt accc have cliff im done with pogo

[radiant vigil]

wow XD reroll in 6 hours

[primal sluice]

XD since 12am and now it the 3rd on both alt acc cliff encounter T.T

[radiant vigil]

i feel like each account is like rigged towards one leader, mine is arlo haha

[primal sluice]

o guess what :3 tmr imma be going out again hehehehee and i hope i can get into few gym and get max 50 gold XD

[radiant vigil]

I dumped into a high turnover gym, expecting like 1 coin or something lol

[primal sluice]

XD im hoping the hope that the one i have in gym get knock out today if not today then dont let it be tmr T.T

[rotund copper]

A little late, but Melmetal is good for Cliff

Melmetal with Rock Slide and Thunderbolt is what I use for almost everything. Against cliff, rock slide gets rid of shields quickly, and also takes out Aerodactyl quickly.

Huh?

[primal sluice]

sry meant i have never encounter it XD

[rotund copper]

Ohh.

[primal sluice]

sent wrong msg to wrong group XD

[rotund copper]

[pulsar thunder]

Oh I don't think they'll get Melmetal until they get Pokemon Home lol

[steel parcel]

i found my old pogo acct from 2016! do i need to buy a new phone to use it?

[analog steeple]

You can toggle between the two accounts on one phone

[steel parcel]

it doesn’t count as multi accounting?

[analog steeple]

I mean yes but so does using the account at all so

Eggs already cracked, mine as well make a good omelet

[steel parcel]

oh yikes. guess i’ll save it for guaranteed lucky trades and leave it alone after

[primal sluice]

girl idk but i been toggling on 3 acc :3

[steel parcel]

i can barely keep up with events on one account anyway

[primal sluice]

like legit that is how dead my area is having time to swap with 3 acc XD

[analog steeple]

I got an old phone to run two accounts but the way I see it I’m playing as a separate player so don’t see the harm in that.

[steel parcel]

i started playing while i was on a road trip so there’s pokes from all over the country! guaranteed xl candy let’s go

[analog steeple]

Nice !!

[primal sluice]

tmr ill be going out too and hopefully i can get some pokemon in gym and earn that 50 gold per day :3

wanna buy more backpack space before May event

[steel parcel]

there’s probably 50 gyms on campus alone so i got the platinum gym defender badge relatively early

so now i’m like please kick out my 10 cp magikarp, stop berrying it i just want coins

[primal sluice]

my poke atm is in gym for 1d 10 hours now T.T

like i want it someone to kick my pokemon out of the gym either today if not today dont let it be tmr XD

[steel parcel]

there’s this one local player who’s been following me around from gym to gym

[primal sluice]

plz be a day where i cannot go out to gym XD

[steel parcel]

keeps berrying my pokes so i sometimes don’t get my 50 coins haha. i appreciated the help when i was trying to get the medal though!

[primal sluice]

XD like i dont mind getting the badge but i want the coins more than badge atm XD

[steel parcel]

same, i’m holding on to a lot of pokes for lucky trades and i need to upgrade storage

[primal sluice]

idk how the lucky trade works so im not too fancy abt it atm since i need 2 phones so both acc can be active the same time to trade so i just delete random pokemon that i cannot use for pvp or for gym and raid and stuff

what i have problem is item storage atm XD

[steel parcel]

i’m trying to complete my lucky dex starting with kalos (smallest dex) so i have way too many clauncher, skrelp and binacle

[primal sluice]

cuz i need to stack pokeball before events since i dont have pokestop i can access to and stuff

[steel parcel]

i used to use pokemon room or other fc sites to add 30 new friends daily and get loads of poke balls that way

now i’m closer to campus so an hour or two of walking has me set for the day

[primal sluice]

luckyyyy

[steel parcel]

being able to hit 3 pokestops from home helps too :)

idk why the church and the church playground are separate pokestops but i’m not complaining

[primal sluice]

XD if i get my own poke stop im leaving my phone open and every 5 min ill be checking it to spin it lmaooo

[steel parcel]

when we were looking for a new place, one of my requirements was that i could hit at least 2 pokestops from the couch lol

[primal sluice]

GIRLLLLLLLLLL u dont understand there is this well known church in my country someone take a pic of the front view request it as a stop and the back view as a gym lmaoooo

[steel parcel]

omg wow

brilliant

[primal sluice]

ikr XD

[steel parcel]

well you’re almost to 38! so close to submitting your own stops

are we friends on pogo? i’d be happy to send gifts every day if your friend list isn’t maxed yet

[primal sluice]

me max lmaooo i doubt it :V

[primal sluice]

i doubt that we are

[steel parcel]

also i saw you were planning to head back to campus next year. i bet it’s a pogo mecca out there!

[primal sluice]

starting to be exact was to start last year but covid be like nope

9611 6338 4033
6196 0564 5123
0677 9156 7907

this is my 3 account

[steel parcel]

added all three!

[primal sluice]

aight ill accept them now

dont ask why the char is a girl :3

[steel parcel]

i won’t ask if you don’t ask why mine is lol

[primal sluice]

XD many of my friends question me why a female char XD

[steel parcel]

better outfits

sometimes anyway

[primal sluice]

XD i feel most games females char get more fancy design XD

[hoary dust]

Is this good I got it from a raid and it’s weather boosted

Those were the stats I got it as

[woven ledge]

Anyone have gengar 3star for trade or the mimikyu pikachu costume ?

[analog steeple]

@woven ledge trading distance is pretty small. Have you tried looking to see if your town has a discord channel or some kind of social media to trade ?

[radiant vigil]

Most of my guy friends have female avatars, like they the better customisation items lol

[charred rapids]

Why would it matter if the gengar is 3 star? The IV’s reroll anyway

[analog steeple]

Oooo swablu datamined for CD

[abstract raven]

I hate it

I really dont want it to be the comm day

[analog steeple]

How come?

I’m excited. Just hope they don’t give it something broken. It’s already annoying in PvP

[abstract raven]

I have 3 of them

There super common to get shiny xD

[charred rapids]

Did you just say swablu?

What a terrible choice for a comm day, I’m skipping that trash

[analog steeple]

I didn’t realize how many people had one already

I’ve been looking for one for a while now with no luck

[lucid frigate]

I dont have the shiny either, and ig xl candies for pvp too. Really hoping for a 3x stardust bonus (which im 99% sure will happen)

Wait nvm, forgot last cd was dust

[charred rapids]

Yeah got a few gold chimken nuggets, they’ve had multiple events in which they’ve been heavily boosted too, just disappointing to see something like that get a spotlight when other Pokémon deserve it more.’

[radiant vigil]

I have 8 lol

Please no swablu comm day I also already have a hundo and loads of candy, I'm really good

[charred rapids]

I think it might be, how disappointing.

[radiant vigil]

It's like magikarp comm day all over except I had less shiny magikarp already

Give us gible or deino

[abstract raven]

Me atm

[radiant vigil]

I've already yeeted out a lot of shiny swablu lol

[charred rapids]

Just another Pokémon that benefits PvP users

[radiant vigil]

I guess cos there was a lot of outrage when PvE relevant moves were added to comm day, people who missed out were salty af less outrage if PvP mon lol

swablu is a nice shiny mind you, but it's literally the one full odd shiny i have way too much of somehow 😂

[lucid frigate]

Id like pve moves not exclusive please

[radiant vigil]

The best solution

[rustic nova]

i love shiny swablu, its so nice

i have one already but i wont complain

[charred rapids]

I will

[rustic nova]

but its so purty

[radiant vigil]

very purdy, chimken nugget with wiiings

[charred rapids]

Not gonna deny it’s a pretty shiny, but is it one that’s needed, eh I mean, not overly

[rustic nova]

i mean yeah its always cooler to get a new release shiny for community days but at least its not like another charmander day or something

[radiant vigil]

pretty much it's not uncommon (like stupid noibat) so I think candy wise most people are ok to for evo to altaria

[charred rapids]

[rustic nova]

one thing i would absolutely love would be a marill community day, with azurill in eggs. such a nice shiny

[radiant vigil]

i wouldn't complain

[charred rapids]

It probably will don’t stress.

Seems everything with a baby gets a comm day, I could see it happening.

[rustic nova]

its one i dont have yet either

[radiant vigil]

at least it's like obviously shiny...me hatching shiny elekid 'oh, it's shiny??'

[rustic nova]

also shiny snorlax comm day with shiny munchlax in eggs would be the best thing ever

it would make it not a rare shiny anymore but i know its something that everyone wants so i dont think ppl would complain

[radiant vigil]

[rustic nova]

u can tell by my pfp that im a munchlax fan xd

[radiant vigil]

and applin too...munchlax isn't eating it is it??

[rustic nova]

NO THEY ARE JUST FRIENDS

[radiant vigil]

just checking

[rustic nova]

xd

applin is something i can see getting a community day too tbh

[lucid frigate]

Oh no, ive already been seeing enough xl azus in gl, dont need even more (but really, shiny azurill is nice )

[rustic nova]

shiny azurill, marill, and azumarill is my favorite shiny line

[radiant vigil]

you can upgrade to shiny xl azumarill

(i need this shiny lol)

[rustic nova]

every event with marill in the wild or with azurill in eggs ive tried so hard

no luck, but i did get a hundo marill on my alt

so thats something at least, but not on my main account

[radiant vigil]

alt always gets the goods

[charred rapids]

Yeah shiny snorlax is probably one of the most elusive shines I own

And the fact it’s a 93, has made me wanna max it

[rustic nova]

ooh lucky

i got a shiny ferroseed on my alt, thats prob my rarest

it being on my alt also means i can lucky trade it to my main one day so thats epic

[charred rapids]

Yeah I ended with a shiny ferroseed thanks to the last event

[rustic nova]

i did like forty something snorlax raids on kanto day and no shiny

i prob missed so many incense shinies from it lol

[radiant vigil]

omg shiny ferroseed

i have boring, common shinies lol

is stuff with a party hat even rare? lol

[rustic nova]

depends which one i guess

[radiant vigil]

I have charmander, eevee, pikachu, pichu haha

[charred rapids]

Yes and no, they’re rare but it’s also things like pikachu and charmander that are kinda overrated

[radiant vigil]

I can't evolve the charmander grrr

Charizard with a party hat would be hilarious

[rustic nova]

pichu is from eggs so i think thatd be considered pretty rare

[charred rapids]

I got the one with the cubone skull

[radiant vigil]

Those ones that were raid only I think are pretty rare

[charred rapids]

I think I have either all 3 or missed bulba

[rustic nova]

i did one raid for the costume starters during the halloween event and got shiny bulbasaur

[radiant vigil]

noice

[charred rapids]

Uhhh...so I was 100% certain one of the two accounts had a 96% shiny top hat squirtle, now I don’t see it

Is this game trolling me....

[rustic nova]

oh no

[charred rapids]

It’s trolling me I found it, it doesn’t show the costume on screen.

[radiant vigil]

the top hat is bugged

[charred rapids]

That’s stupid and scared the hell out of me

Cute turtle boi safe

[rustic nova]

thats a really cool one

[radiant vigil]

i almost deleted it until i got a warning going 'do you want to delete an event pokemon' and i'm like 'what event pokemon'...

[rustic nova]

These are all my costume shinies

[radiant vigil]

that's a lot of delibrid. also the sableye dayum

[charred rapids]

Legit jealous of half of those

[rustic nova]

And explorer hat pika and winter pika on my alt

[radiant vigil]

And the world hat pika too

[charred rapids]

whats the mythical this go fest

[rustic nova]

That Cubchoo was a daily spawn too LOL

[radiant vigil]

Bruh those are rare af

[charred rapids]

Yeah I didn’t get half of those

[radiant vigil]

I can't show my costumed ones, too pleb

Only one of those I have is the chansey LOL

[rustic nova]

really cool one at least

[charred rapids]

It’s my alt that has 28 though, like the party hat wurmple shine and the shundo togepi with flower crown

[rustic nova]

i also got 2 shiny normal cubchoo during its release event

the winter event was my luckiest

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

I missed so many events

More than I’d of liked to

[rustic nova]

i only started playing last april

missed so many good community days

[radiant vigil]

I couldn't go for a lot of them xD

If I exclude the costume shinies I traded for I have 9 and 3 are squirtle line from comm day

[charred rapids]

A lot of people see them as rare, I see them as taking up space, cool and all but no use

[rustic nova]

I know someone who has played since release day and only has like 2 costume shiny

[radiant vigil]

I have played since release day

[charred rapids]

So have I

[rustic nova]

I have 335 shinies and started last April

[radiant vigil]

Aussie ogggg

[rustic nova]

And I’ve sent a lot of kanto comm day shinies to my let’s go games

So I think I’ve prob caught well over 450 shinies

[charred rapids]

woww

I’m at 1191 with a few been traded/transferred and released

[radiant vigil]

Hard core

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

I only have 447 shiny left, weak effort

Yeeted 5 shiny a week to home every single week lol

[rustic nova]

ive traded one shiny (a charmander) to my alt with a normal trade and it became a 96% shiny so ive decided im not sending shinies to my alt in case i accidentally create a shundo and not have it on my main account lol

[radiant vigil]

Dw if I don't trade with my alt, it's my friends who get the good lucky shiny

[charred rapids]

I’m kinda fine with it since my alt is basically just another main honestly.

[radiant vigil]

Your 'alt' has more exp than my main mate 🤣

[charred rapids]

Get your excellents sorted

[rustic nova]

my alt is lvl 35 and i started using it back in october

[radiant vigil]

sometimes I forget to grind xp events lol

[rustic nova]

my main is only lvl 40

[radiant vigil]

Metal has 2 L48 accounts

[charred rapids]

[rustic nova]

how

[radiant vigil]

I know one other person with 2 x L40+ accounts but they're 43/45

[charred rapids]

Second account was created the start of 2017, it had it easy with the raids and stuff

[radiant vigil]

Yeah pre 2017 exp pretty much didn't count, evolving pidgey was the optimal way to get exp then

[charred rapids]

Yeah that’s what I had to do to get 40 on main

[rustic nova]

why pidgey?

[radiant vigil]

I think I was like L31 when I came back to the game lol

[charred rapids]

Pidgey was cheap

[radiant vigil]

It was common + low candy cost to evo

[rustic nova]

oh yeah its only 12 candy for evo isnt it?

thats smart

[radiant vigil]

Getting 80k off a lucky egg was good back then

[charred rapids]

Yeah this was pre raid time, soon as that released there was no point mass evolving on a lucky egg

[radiant vigil]

Yeah glad I don't have to keep track of stuff to evolve

[charred rapids]

Especially with all these xp events, they’re begging people to be over 40 at this point.

Comm day will probably be an xp bonus too at this rate

[radiant vigil]

You only need 100 best friends lucky egged to get L40 lol

Less cos I didn't math ultra cos I'm lazy

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

I remember pikachu comm day being 2x exp..any exp

I barely caught pika, literally raided or evolved the entire time 🤣

[charred rapids]

Yeah I remember when bonuses covered everything

Now they’re down to an absolute specific, kinda blows

[radiant vigil]

Yeah :/ that was essentially 4x exp back then, only time they did it, freaking wild

[charred rapids]

6 hour lure events, events where bonuses lasted a week or even two, the grind was insane.

Now we unlock 2x specific bonuses by doing 40 mil raids globally just for it to last two days and be overshadowed by a non bonus event

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I had work then

I missed out

[charred rapids]

I had a mate drag me out to the beach town around 6 and we’d walk up and down the esplanade until 4-5 in the morning

[radiant vigil]

Pogo on the beach sounds fun

[charred rapids]

Yeah Bargara, full of stops and gyms the whole stretch, even more fun now that it has e-scooters

[radiant vigil]

Man one good thing you Queenslanders have are e scooters

Tried some in brissie, I'm jelly af

[charred rapids]

And what do we do with em? Abuse the heck out of them, break them, ride on them drunk, steal em for skateparks to do tricks, burnouts, throw them in rivers, and get stupid injured on them so that eventually they get taken away

[radiant vigil]

Lol we do that with the bikes

[charred rapids]

So I’m making the use of em, nothing feels better than gliding down a footpath at night by the beach going 15km an hour with no pedestrians

Egg hatching

[radiant vigil]

I can imagine the feeling and damn I'm jelly

[charred rapids]

Which I think needs a speed of 6-7 to register, still good idea though.

Come visit bundy, bring ya boi

[radiant vigil]

I'm keen to travel so bad haha

Never been further north than brissie lol

[charred rapids]

Come visit the bundy barrel and rum factory, the sea turtles hatching, got some nice beaches.

Bruh they are doing up a park around the corner to have a water section, in ground trampolines, the whole shebang wouldn’t be surprised if I see more adults in there than kids.

[radiant vigil]

Beaches I need to compare

Lol I'd go there, trampolines wheeee

[charred rapids]

Could imagine

[radiant vigil]

I'm immature af

[charred rapids]

Aren’t we all? I’m 26 and you’ll see me on them trampolines

I should probably finish the word, saying just tramps was a bad choice

[radiant vigil]

Hahaha Lol yeah someone might mistake that lol

[radiant vigil]

Bruh I'm 26

[rustic nova]

man ive always wanted to go to australia

yall making me jealous

[radiant vigil]

Everything will kill you here jk

[charred rapids]

NOOOO WAY

This is getting scary

[rustic nova]

maybe thats what i want

[radiant vigil]

Scary don't tell me you're born in march or something

[charred rapids]

Nah I’m January, I am superior

[radiant vigil]

oh I see

[charred rapids]

To be fair the whole “everything will kill you in Australia” is just a dumb joke you’ll be safe Griffin

[radiant vigil]

Yeah if you don't poke at it it won't hurt you

[charred rapids]

Yeah don’t steve Irwin it and poke it in the butt, you’ll be safe otherwise.

[rustic nova]

im sure there are dangerous things but im smart enough to not bother em lol

visiting aus and nz has always been on my bucket list and i hope to be able to some day

[radiant vigil]

Some tourists have. Just cos it looked cool

[charred rapids]

Our dangerous things are animals you could go a whole trip not seeing, I’ve lived here and I’ve only seen one wild taipan outside my door.

[radiant vigil]

Like seeing people play with blue ringed octopus at the beach

[charred rapids]

Silly heads thinking it’s cute

Blue ringed octopus will ruin your day

[rustic nova]

youll never catch me bothering an animal i cant recognize

[radiant vigil]

That will kill you in about 5 minutes

[rustic nova]

ESPECIALLY sea creatures

so many harmless looking things that could kill you as soon as they look at ya

[radiant vigil]

Blue bottles won't kill you but they hurt

But otherwise enjoy the nature here 🙂 and NZ, it's very beautiful

[charred rapids]

And well they don’t call them salt water crocs for nothing, they’ll come to the beach often.

[radiant vigil]

Ok I'm too far south for crocs

[rustic nova]

the main places i want to visit are aus and nz, ireland, iceland, and the faroe islands

[radiant vigil]

I wanna go Iceland

[charred rapids]

Those are nice choices though, for sure.

[radiant vigil]

Europe in general would be one massive party haha

[charred rapids]

Alaska

And majority of Canada.

[radiant vigil]

Canadaaaaaaa 🍁

[charred rapids]

Such a beautiful country

[radiant vigil]

Man I nearly went there for exchange, but I went to Singapore instead cos I thought Canada was too cold

[rustic nova]

used to live an hour away from the us-canada border and all i saw there was so pretty

visited every couple months

[charred rapids]

The only thing I’m jealous about with America is how close it is to Canada

[rustic nova]

only good thing xd

[radiant vigil]

apparently in the US people lock their front doors, but in Canada they leave them unlocked?

Some weird thing I heard

[charred rapids]

In America they don’t have switches on their power outlets Milli

[radiant vigil]

Wait actually?

[charred rapids]

Legit.

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

They are so backwards.

[rustic nova]

i used to live in one of the most dangerous areas in the US and we always locked our doors, but now i live in a very safe place and throughout the day we literally just leave our doors open lol

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Superpower country but can’t put an on or off switch on an outlet

[radiant vigil]

I guess they have enough electricity for stuff to be always on xD

[charred rapids]

Did you live in Flint or something Griff?

[rustic nova]

detroit

[charred rapids]

Heard some bad things about Flint

[radiant vigil]

Also is it true in the US people don't hang their washing outside to dry?

[rustic nova]

detroit is basically flint but with somewhat cleaner water

[charred rapids]

Yeah don’t you guys hang clothes out?

[rustic nova]

in some places ppl do but mainly no

[charred rapids]

It’s a good thing ya bills aren’t crazy like they are here.

Electricity bill can be a nightmare for any Australian.

[rustic nova]

ehhhh

[radiant vigil]

That's a lot of moolah running the dryer

[charred rapids]

You’d be surprised at how much they don’t have to pay

[rustic nova]

some bills might be cheaper, but end up in the hospital and needed an ambulance? instant debt

[charred rapids]

Yeah we got you there, no need to pay for ambulance here we get them free rides

[radiant vigil]

Yes I've heard of that I think we need to pay for ambo if you don't have hospital cover

But Medicare covers the rest

[charred rapids]

Aboriginal/Torres strait islanders get that discount for anything medical

My shots are free

[radiant vigil]

noice

Me being a slacker with the flu shot lol

[charred rapids]

And why? Because my ancestors were wiped out by white people, America should be able to feel relatable to that

[rustic nova]

yeah health care here is so stupid, ppl will have broken both their arms and still try to drive themselves to the hospital because of how expensive ambulances can be

[charred rapids]

And then your beds are expensive too aren’t they?

[rustic nova]

pretty sure yeah

[charred rapids]

When I went to America to visit I had to get insurance because apparently it costs thousands if I break my leg over there

[rustic nova]

yeah its ridiculous

[charred rapids]

Wow, that’s crazy.

[radiant vigil]

I've heard really scary things about hospital bills in the US

[charred rapids]

America in general scares me

[radiant vigil]

Ugh I mistimed the train rip raid hour

[charred rapids]

Wasn’t gonna do it anyway

I have to choose whether I want a lot of incarnates with very minimum gen 6 legends or other way around.

[rustic nova]

yeah hospital bills here are ridiculous

[charred rapids]

America as a whole is just too unstable for my liking

[radiant vigil]

True, I just didn't get any shinies so I'll chuck at few at it, but I'll live haha

[rustic nova]

yeah if i ever get the chance to get out of here im taking it

[charred rapids]

Got this Aussie in another sever, major douchebag, super egotistical, says he wants to move to the US.....is your head broken fella?!

[radiant vigil]

Yeah America is not high on my travel list. It sounds like people die from guns every day

[rustic nova]

dont get me wrong, america is a beautiful country, so many nice places to look at, but thats the only positive

[charred rapids]

I for sure enjoyed my time over there, couldn’t live there though, would be on the bottom of my list.

[rustic nova]

yeah at least im living in prob one of the most beautiful states

if you're ever going to the us for some reason, definitely visit oregon

[radiant vigil]

I only know Oregon from a TV show I watched but it looked nice

[rustic nova]

yeah its a very nice place

[charred rapids]

I’ll keep that in mind

[radiant vigil]

I'd need to convince the bf first, he's scared of the place cos of all the race attacks and all 😦

[rustic nova]

yeah i dont blame him at all

[charred rapids]

Yeah that would be honestly scary as heck. Maybe go somewhere else for now, go there another time

When America sorts itself out.

[rustic nova]

hopefully itll be some time this century

[radiant vigil]

Yeah

[rustic nova]

i think there couldve been some actual decent progress these next few years if it was bernie instead of biden

but thats not what happened

[charred rapids]

No offence America is equivalent to a 10 year old running around with all the power

[radiant vigil]

Apparently he's too radical though? XD

[charred rapids]

It’s politics, it works like Australia, it doesn’t matter who gets elected, they’ll do something wrong

[rustic nova]

yeah too radical for most us citizens apparently

[charred rapids]

The bigger the douche the better ya chances

[rustic nova]

thats just how politics work unfortunately

[charred rapids]

There is no right choice, just slightly better choices

[rustic nova]

exactly

[radiant vigil]

It's always who's the least worse

[rustic nova]

yeah its frustrating

[radiant vigil]

Or who you're least sick of

[rustic nova]

pretty much

[radiant vigil]

Also I hear redrawing of political boundaries to benefit you

[rustic nova]

[radiant vigil]

[rustic nova]

[ivory halo]

So to shiny hunt smearagle in pokemon go, My Oshawott
( Oshi ) will have to become a temporary model

[karmic raven]

Can chimchars nest?

[charred rapids]

Yeah Chims can nest.

[ivory halo]

Hmm, if Oshawotts nested, where would they be?

[tight pilot]

^ could try global nest atlas from silphroad / your local discord may be best if you have one!

[primal sluice]

@steel parcel look what I got while I was away but the candy to evolve it thou 😭😭

[analog steeple]

Oooo nice!!! That’d be great for GL

[primal sluice]

It is but if I take it to talonflame it wouldn’t be

[analog steeple]

Whatcha mean? Looks like talonflame can be taken to 1476

[primal sluice]

Rank 367 thou

And those candy I only have 30 something candy XD

[analog steeple]

Ranks comparing previous evolutions is a bit meaningless. Nobody is actually running Fletchinder in GL

[primal sluice]

I mean meh atleast I can replace my charizard when I evolve it XD

[charred rapids]

I’ve seen some fletchinder use, it’s an extreme spice pick though like a maxed out bellsprout, it has to be lined up correctly.

[analog steeple]

That explains the other 14 ranked better lol

I saw a marshtomp the other day and actually had no idea what to do against it lol

[charred rapids]

Yeah learns surf I think and sludge, still pretty darn effective too so yeah spice picks like that require some correct playing, but very rewarding when done.

You’d be surprised at what a litleo can do.

[primal sluice]

XD I’m still undecided wt to do

[analog steeple]

With the fletching?

[primal sluice]

Yea XD

[analog steeple]

It’s a great mon! Super annoying with flame charge

[charred rapids]

i copped a hundo the other day

good for ultra?

I got my fair share of wins with it in ultra, has to be level 50 though.

[primal sluice]

Think imma swap it with my charizard

[analog steeple]

In GL?

[primal sluice]

And that is if imma get enough candy XD

Yea GL

[analog steeple]

I don’t know the amount you get per walk

Never tried walking one lol

[primal sluice]

I kinda walking this big boy for UL but I’m reconsidering it atm cuz his charge attack takes too long to charge up

[analog steeple]

Charizard is actually pretty solid for UL

Dragon claw does great against all the damn dragons running around

[charred rapids]

What are you using for Arca’s quick move?

[primal sluice]

Fire fang quick attack and charge attack is fire blast

[charred rapids]

Snarl is better, also flamethrower and wild charge as its charge moves.

Snarl may not be stab but it charges quick.

[analog steeple]

Wild charge is so good i forgot it had it and I ate one good lol

[charred rapids]

Release a wild charge and switch, it’s exactly like brave bird, you don’t want that debuff stuck on ya.

[primal sluice]

XD I search on google on their moves and I just look for the one that does more dmg

[charred rapids]

More damage means nothing in PvP, quick and smart plays beat power

Tangrowth’s rockslide isn’t its most powerful attack, you’d be surprised at what it can do though.

[analog steeple]

Brave bird I hate brave bird

And the rock slide lol. Ate that one tonight lol

[charred rapids]

Yeah zard don’t take those very well lol

[analog steeple]

Yeah it was a straight KO

[primal sluice]

Imma focus on building my gl team first before ultra league XD cuz I’m still a starter player in a way

[charred rapids]

Fair

[primal sluice]

Cuz I don’t have much candy and stuff

Got my first gyarados as wild spawn but iv wise meh XD

[primal sluice]

i just caught another fletching and the attack is one higher but in talonflame the cp can be higher than the other one XD both defense and health are 15 btw :V

[charred rapids]

what rank is it

[primal sluice]

187 and 367

imma still need the candies so imma take it easy for now and as i get more candy ill see if i can get better ones :V

[charred rapids]

did u play the com day?

dont evolve it till december

[lyric herald]

Come on I accidentally clicked sign out on my main pogo account and i dont remember what email or password i used

Phew i got back in

[surreal parrot]

Oh I think i missed original chat but apparently the datamine for CD is Swablu!? sincerely hope not. It's so mediocre and i already have dupe shinies

[lyric herald]

I hope it isnt either, I already have a few

The only good thing would be helping me get the 400 candys to evolve mine

[primal sluice]

nope i miss that day i was busy that day sadlyT.T

[primal sluice]

is there gonna be anything special when evolving december or something?

[charred rapids]

It’s swablu

[tight pilot]

Oii i love swablu as a pokemon but like why....

[tight pilot]

Yes, december will be all this years com days together and will allow you to get special move for them all 🙂

[primal sluice]

i guess no more evolving then :3

[karmic raven]

Yay more shiny Swablu i hope I get a decent iv one at least

[charred rapids]

u get incinerate which is com day move

[tight pilot]

Yeah so for example if you get a 4* pokemon that has an old exclusive move, dont evo it as it’ll come back around, either via the december comm day if its recent enough or in an event like the beldum day where Metagross could learn Meteor Mash, there were ones for older comday mons that were missed back just in January this year too so they definitely come around just play the waiting game

[charred rapids]

which makes the pokemon good

[primal sluice]

XD i got that hundo beldum just need the candies :3

[charred rapids]

otherwise then u need to elite tm which are hard to come by

[tight pilot]

Yeah save those precious ETM’s

[primal sluice]

guess i wasted my elite tm LMAOOOOO

[tight pilot]

LOL on what?

[charred rapids]

what u use it on

[primal sluice]

and i forgot who i used it on

[tight pilot]

Ripppp

[primal sluice]

HAHAHAHAHA

[charred rapids]

lmaooo

[tight pilot]

Yeah save for exclusive moves! You’ll get another one at the end of this GBL season dw

[primal sluice]

aye im sure im not the only one who have done that T.T

[charred rapids]

shit im not rank 20 yet

[primal sluice]

i was hoping to hit ace rank T.T

[tight pilot]

I think you just gotta hit rank 10+ but dont quote me on that

[primal sluice]

before next month end but sigh UL T.T

[charred rapids]

ah ok thats good

coz i rlly cba with gbl

[tight pilot]

I been slackin, no motivation for gbl lately tbh

[lucid frigate]

Once you hit rank 19 you get an elite charge tm immediately. If you’re rank 20 at the end of the season, you get the elite fast tm

[charred rapids]

one of my rays on that weekend didnt have hurricane on it🤣 so i sent it in and got a free elite tm

[primal sluice]

im sitting too comfortable on my GL team that i have atm need to get better iv pokemon to get different set up T.T

[charred rapids]

what is ur team

[primal sluice]

atm im running stunfisk charizard and that electric spider forgot the name XD

[charred rapids]

garvantula

[primal sluice]

yea that

[charred rapids]

solid

what colour is the stunfisk

i think the galarian one is better?

[primal sluice]

im using the normal orange color one

for me it is the only good one i have atm XD

[charred rapids]

what rank u at

[primal sluice]

20 :3

my team is a 50/50 it depends if i swap first i more likely to lose

[rotund copper]

Pretty sure I should change up my team

My UL team is still Swampert, Gardevoir, and Blaziken

[primal sluice]

im jelly i cant play UL cuz i dont have a team for it XD

[charred rapids]

i use venusaur scizor swampert

[rotund copper]

I have a few Pokemon I can use thanks to Community Days.

[primal sluice]

i delete most my pokemon T.T due to lack fo knowledge abt the iv stats in pvp and so on

[rotund copper]

Ah

I was a first weeker and man, if I had known the GBL was gonna be a thing, I wouldnt have transferred what I did.

[analog steeple]

Blaziken can probably be swapped out

[rotund copper]

Is Cresselia any good?

[analog steeple]

Yeah she’s a tanky girl

[rotund copper]

Could I make a team out of any of these?

[primal sluice]

get that lapras in :V

[rotund copper]

...about that

I had a Lapras. Double moved with Ice Beam.

I accidentally transferred it...

[primal sluice]

swampert is annoying :/

LIKE REEEEEEEEEEE if i fight someone with swampert i most likely gonna lose T.T

[rotund copper]

Its the exact opposite for me. My swampert gets destroyed by everything.

[analog steeple]

How’re you using it? What’re the moves ? Mines kicking ass

[rotund copper]

It knows Mud Shot, Hydro Cannon, and Earthquake

I send it in first to take out shields.

[analog steeple]

Ohhhg

[rotund copper]

Except, I'm always against Grass Types first somehow.

[analog steeple]

Most folks are running ice or dragon counters in my bracket

[rotund copper]

Ah.

[pulsar thunder]

How do you guys measure what's a good team? I rarely play on GL

[analog steeple]

A togekiss, charizard, swampert team would be pretty solid @rotund copper

[rotund copper]

Alrighty, I'll try that out.

Any specific Moveset?

[primal sluice]

to me a good team is a team where u can counter back someone when they try to counter u basically for me

[analog steeple]

Again, not sure how to use Cress so she might be better in place of someone

[rotund copper]

Well Cresselia is probably better Double Moved, and I dont have the rare candy for that right now

[analog steeple]

Swampert has the best move set. Would hide him in back if you’re getting a lot of grass leads

[rotund copper]

So Ill hold off on Cresselia

Alrighty.

[analog steeple]

What moves does charizard have ?

[rotund copper]

Char has Fire Spin and Blast Burn rn

[analog steeple]

Nice! Can you take out fire spin for dragon claw?

[primal sluice]

should i do it for mine too?

[rotund copper]

Yes. I desperately need to remove some TMs

[analog steeple]

Blast burn is fantastic! Dragon claw gives you dragon coverage

[rotund copper]

Is Dragon Claw an Elite TM?

[charred rapids]

ye

[rotund copper]

Oh.

[analog steeple]

I don’t think so?

I have it on mine and I don’t remember using one

Lemme check on a zard real quick

[rotund copper]

Ill go double check the Move Website.

Hmm its not Elite, I guess Im just unlucky.

[pulsar thunder]

And I was told not to evolve until I'm level 30, I'm 31 now should I evolve the mons that I can?

[rotund copper]

Oh my God.

I have been spamming Fast TMs.
I didnt realize Dragon Claw is a Charged Attack.

[analog steeple]

Hurb, gardevoir or togekiss would be a good lead depending on what you’re seeing a lot and if you plan to use as a lead or swap

[rotund copper]

I think I'll use Togekiss. Definitely no bias because its my favorite Pokemon or anything.

[analog steeple]

You also have grass covered with charizard anyways so you don’t have to worry as much about venosaur lol

[rotund copper]

Venusaur is the worst thing I've ever dealt with as a Swampert lead.

[analog steeple]

Just depends what you’re losing to with charizard. Ultra league is pretty dragonite heavy that’s why I run it with dragon claw

[rotund copper]

Especially shadow.

[primal sluice]

o well imma stay my puny self in GL for a bit :V

[charred rapids]

I use dragon breath gyarados, usually wins in the dragon matchup

Even better if it’s a kingdra matchup.

[analog steeple]

That’s why I do charizard in the middle lol. I can usually kill leads and get a veno to a very health zard

[rotund copper]

Oh, what moveset should I go for with Togekiss?

[analog steeple]

I think just charm and ancient power?

It doesn’t really get off many charge moves cause fairy lol

[rotund copper]

Alrighty. Wasnt sure if I should go with a second move.

[charred rapids]

Flamethrower will save you in some spots

[analog steeple]

Oh yeah true^

[charred rapids]

Escavalier for example

[analog steeple]

If you’re leading it’d be good to threaten veno if you get locked into that matchup

[rotund copper]

And there go the rare candies

[analog steeple]

[charred rapids]

Some sacrifices are needed

[analog steeple]

What’s your ranking at the moment Hurb?

[rotund copper]

Rank 6. Havent really tried this season yet.

And I really sucked last season. Ace, 2020 is what I ended on. Lowest? 1860.

[analog steeple]

This is my first season and not having a blast burn zard is kicking my ass trying to trade in my server for one

[rotund copper]

Well hopefully it'll be coming back in Dec

[primal sluice]

@radiant vigil my alt 6th time encounter cliff T.T

[lucid frigate]

Ive been running with magnezone lead, gallade safe swap, and venusaur in the back for premier cup

[analog steeple]

What’s the moves on zone?

[primal sluice]

a lot of venuasur mmmm

[lucid frigate]

Wild charge and mirror shot

[analog steeple]

Yeah UL is a swampert party so ya gotta have a plan for him

[lucid frigate]

Id rather see swampert than gfisk, so much easier to deal with

[primal sluice]

yea im right not to play UL idk how to deal with swampert :/

[lucid frigate]

Most dragon types and any grass type counter swampert pretty hard

[primal sluice]

o well no wonder i dont counter him XD

[charred rapids]

Yeah another reason I run gyarados

Swamp doesn’t do much to it

[lucid frigate]

Its not good for me to see it in the lead, but my other 2 pokemon are pretty good counters so it can work out if their response to gallade isnt a hard counter

[radiant vigil]

It's cursed

Oooo

[pulsar thunder]

When is it live?

[radiant vigil]

10am local time Thursday

Do not take any snapshots before, 1.5 hours to go for me

Already saw a screenshot of shiny smeragle 🤣

[pulsar thunder]

Oh okay thanks

[charred rapids]

Wonder what the odds are like, if it’s standard most of us don’t have a shot

[radiant vigil]

hopefully closer to 1/64. Guess we'll see soon

[primal sluice]

the 7th time to be exact atm

@tight pilot mine got away again guess this account isnt for raid :V

[crude nacelle]

sad that Xerneas and Mega Altaria are going to be shit on release. 😦

[radiant vigil]

Everything is always shit on release 😦

[crude nacelle]

Groudon wasn't 😦

Neither was Rayquaza tbh

[charred rapids]

Welcome to Niantic’s amazing game of Pokémon go

[radiant vigil]

I guess they weren't entirely shit, but full potential is definitely nerfed

[crude nacelle]

fair tbh

Xerneas is total shit tho 😦

[radiant vigil]

Yeah the cp nerf and rubbish moves

I hear it can learn tackle omg 🤣

[charred rapids]

Wasn’t just cp, it was stats in general.

It went from being a beast to not as beastly with the tackle and zen headbutt fast move to a garbage legendary in a matter of weeks

[radiant vigil]

Tackle like that's just insulting

Guess I might go for shiny genies more now lol

No need to save for xerneas 🤣 I'll grab whatever pops on my work building

[charred rapids]

I’ll still do a few Xerneas, but I’m not maxing one to 50 anymore

Too expensive for such a lacklustre legend.

[radiant vigil]

yeah, wait for better 😦

[charred rapids]

Hey Milli, check the flex

[radiant vigil]

I think I know what it is without even checking

yeah i'm right haha, my turn to try

question for science, is it shiny in the snapshot

[charred rapids]

No it’s not

[radiant vigil]

8 down, 7 to go

[charred rapids]

Good luck

[radiant vigil]

i'll try on the alts after work when i'm home later haha

yeah no luck on the main as expected

[charred rapids]

I only got the one, at least I’ll get my plat badge for screenshots

[radiant vigil]

yeah this will help a lot, maybe i can actually ditch the GL grind I'm doing for that badge haha

[charred rapids]

Well it’s 60 smeargle all up.

[radiant vigil]

I was 110 off this morning, so at the end of the event that'll get me at 50 away. Doable with a few comms days and trying daily

might just get the GL plat anyway cos it's easy to grind when i'm raid denning on the switch loool

[charred rapids]

Yeah I think I got the GL plat badge, it’s the most played league too

[radiant vigil]

yeah it's the only one i've really tried lol

[charred rapids]

Yeah my ultra and master is probably halfway lol

Couldn’t be stuffed

[radiant vigil]

mine aren't even gold i think my master is bronze haha

[lucid frigate]

I have plat great, over half for plat ultra, and barely over half for gold master

I have pretty much no resources for ml

[naive ledge]

HBD @torpid tendon

[torpid tendon]

this is me fighting back you sneaky little ||poopnugget||

[surreal parrot]

It's a shame there's no way of seeing a more detailed breakdown of encounters with pokemon like
Pikachu
Seen wild : 1
Seen shadow : 1
Seen wild shiny : 1 etc

[radiant vigil]

45 snapshot later no shiny smeargle even the alt luck has failed...

[stark narwhal]

I haven’t been in this server for a couple months because I’ve taken a break from the game because I was burning silly amounts of money trying to fill dex slots. Have the catch rates for raids been improved? Because I just went back to back on catching Landorus and Tornadus on the first raid

[radiant vigil]

Nope still the same. Usually best way to catch consistently is just patience with the throw so it doesn't attack as you yeet the ball

[stark narwhal]

Oh lol so I’ve just been incredibly lucky

[radiant vigil]

Yeah if you're getting it first ball definitely. Been taking me a good 10 balls each to get them today, but I also got lazy aiming the moment they weren't shiny

[stark narwhal]

Lol not first balls, I just meant only having to beat the raid once.

I struggled immensely with the Regis. I think it took me 3 or 4 raids a piece just to catch them

[radiant vigil]

Usually throwing the ball right after they attack is the safest cos you'll guarantee the hit

I liked the regis cos they had fat circles to aim at 😅 could try for excellents. But I guess also raiding with friends gives you a MASSIVE boost in balls so that might help also

Makes a big difference if you have 20 balls vs 10

[stark narwhal]

Managed to catch Thundurus on first raid too. That was so lucky as I only had 3 remote passes. Whew.

[primal sluice]

atleast u get them in my alt account on the 5th raid still cant get landorus :/ and been seeing cliff the 7th time XD

[charred rapids]

Catching legendaries got lazy for me, when you have all type badges platinum you can catch them 95% of the time without the use of berries with constant excellents.

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I put it down to a practice thing...probs only have like 1/30 legendaries run, with 20 balls if you hit it every time with great + curve throws if you don’t get it you’re super unlucky

[radiant vigil]

you need to clean your account with cliff bleach or something

[primal sluice]

lmaoooo girl i literally everytime im on it and it is balloon time im praying lmaooo

[charred rapids]

Nearly 1500 legendary Pokémon, I tend to also transfer a lot of them so I’m down to 50 of each.

[radiant vigil]

yeah i don’t have the space for trash

[primal sluice]

rn im holding down 3 gyms and all 3 are on the urge of being knock out im just hoping that one gets knock out today and then another tmr T.T so i get 100 coins instead XD

[radiant vigil]

grazz like one or two of the gyms to dissuade people from kicking it XD

[primal sluice]

XD rn i wish i had berries to feed my pokemon :V last night i had a headache and went to sleep early and forgot to open my gifts T.T
