I’m not overly fussed on shiny marill, but damn it would be nice to have it start over if they screwed the pooch

[radiant vigil]

I'm pretty keen for shiny marill

[radiant vigil]

Waiting for you to get the first shiny

[charred rapids]

Im scared to continue to claim them.

Would be cool to see at least once shine, but I don’t know if this was meant to happen, if it was an accident chances are the shiny chance isn’t as increased as usual research days.

[radiant vigil]

I took a quick look at reddit, looks like there have been some reports of shinies. I guess if it's not boosted here I'll try on the alts during the proper window

It's a friday arvo...I ceebs working, perfect distraction

[charred rapids]

Yeah maybe. I have the whole family so I’ll keep going for now.

[radiant vigil]

I don't have any

[muted kayak]

I clear 6 or 7 pages and 0 shinies

[charred rapids]

Jeeeeez that doesn’t give me high hopes

[radiant vigil]

yeah i'm a few pages in too, nothing

[muted kayak]

But i found a shiny jigly and a shiny dratini in the wild 🎉

[radiant vigil]

damn, i want the jiggly haha. never gotten that shiny

only got shiny snubbull today

[charred rapids]

Yeah 4 pages and nothing on either account.

[radiant vigil]

damn the people with 2 on reddit either are boosted, or just insanely lucky

[charred rapids]

I think it was a mistake, see the time limit was suppose to be 8 to 10 but here it says two days, we were also suppose to get field research tasks from spins that gave marill too

[radiant vigil]

it's niantic for once they dropped something early, not late...

can i trade the snubbull for a shiny marill? i really don't want the snubbull lmao

[charred rapids]

Yeah definitely screwed it.

[radiant vigil]

intern pressed the button early, for all timezones

[charred rapids]

I mean it’s Friday how’d they blow it so badly

And give it to us for like 2 days

[radiant vigil]

probs too keen for the weekend and didn't want to do the job later

[charred rapids]

I dunno, I’ll keep an eye out on Niantic support, no one in my local chats posted a shiny yet

[radiant vigil]

was waiting for someone here to

[charred rapids]

I mean leek duck isn’t always accurate but I feel they’re right this time.

[radiant vigil]

that's probably true, but now it's there and tempting me

[charred rapids]

Don’t do iiiit

Well I mean you can, you’ll still have access to tasks on stops

But I don’t know how well the shiny rate from those will be

[radiant vigil]

i feel like i've done most of it lol

well i've got the marill fam on swsh anyway...so that's ok lol

[rustic nova]

ive already done half of it on two accounts and no shinies

so i think its not working

[radiant vigil]

i think on average from these events i get like 3-4 ish with the boosted rate

[rustic nova]

yeah

[radiant vigil]

apart from snubbull, like got 10 of those for some reason

[rustic nova]

maybe if its not working theyll do a makeup event lol

[charred rapids]

They won’t even though they should, it was a mistake on their part and so many people jumped in head first.

[radiant vigil]

let's see how long they take to realise haha

[rustic nova]

i hope so, since ive already done half 😐

[charred rapids]

Yeah I’ve done about 4 pages on each, I don’t know how many there is but I assume that’s halfway or so.

[rustic nova]

theres 20 pages

[radiant vigil]

usually it's 10/20 pages or something?

[charred rapids]

20? Oh grand still have a beautiful amount.

[radiant vigil]

only see blue water mouse

[charred rapids]

Easy chances, but hey if they do give us more, technically you guys got some free dust and balls anyway

[rustic nova]

yeah im stopping now, dont wanna risk doing the whole thing if its not shiny boosted rn

[radiant vigil]

wouldn't that be nice

[charred rapids]

I don’t think it is, I think they did a dud

[rustic nova]

this is literally my most wanted shiny in go rn so i dont wanna waste this

[odd glade]

Am I the only one who didn't get a single shiny marill? 😐 I'm scared to the research on alts thinking the shiny rate is not boosted until sunday

[charred rapids]

Anyone that got a shiny from this would be standard odds pure luck, I haven’t heard anyone getting one yet

[radiant vigil]

shundo azumarill to terrorise GL

don't do it on the alt, i don't think it's boosted haha

[odd glade]

darn it 😡

[rustic nova]

i saw ppl got it on twitter when it first went out so i figured it was fine

[charred rapids]

Well out of thousands yeah some people would get it

Maybe even two.

[radiant vigil]

i'm seeing a few reports on TSR from people finishing it and getting 2 though

1 i'd say is full odds luck, but 2 is a bit odd

[charred rapids]

Yeah again 2 isn’t unheard of, I’ve gotten two wild shiny mons back to back standard odds

[radiant vigil]

actually true, i've gotten magnemite and wooper about 6 minutes apart once haha

[charred rapids]

Chances of that happening again? Probably not, but yeah people getting two? Out of hundreds of thousands of players, it’s bound to happen here and there

[radiant vigil]

saw about 3/4 people on the same thread say it yeah, others going nope not touching XDF

[charred rapids]

I would advise to wait for sure.

[rustic nova]

someone on twitter got 2 shiny marill back to back

[charred rapids]

Again, it happens

[rustic nova]

so that person got super lucky lol, if its not boosted rn

just super annoyed i did half of it when it doesnt seem to be working right

[radiant vigil]

yeah i'm probs half in too hmm

[odd glade]

I did it all

[charred rapids]

I’m sure there’s someone out there that got two shiny snorlax’s in a row or spiritomb, wouldn’t be shocked if someone’s managed two shundo’s in a row in the last 4 years shinies have been in the game

[viscid isle]

Hey I played on the sneasel day and got 0 shinies so luck is a b sometimes.

[rustic nova]

i only got one on the nidoran day

and i remember someone on youtube got like 10 lol

[viscid isle]

I’m just saying it’s almost impossible to tell if it’s boosted or not right now

[charred rapids]

Yeah but there’s a difference between marill and sneasel day and thats the release times were actually on point for sneasel

Marill was released too early.

[radiant vigil]

at least i have some berries to yeet at my gyms lol

[charred rapids]

So shiny rates guaranteed are absolutely not boosted.

[odd glade]

I can see in other servers shiny channels that they are almost empty of shiny Marills, which is way diff from a regular research day

[radiant vigil]

to be fair, this is also the slowest time of day

most of the people posting the shinies are likely asleep XD

[charred rapids]

Bruh someone would have one from this channel already if that were the case

[radiant vigil]

true, there's like 4+ of us going at it haha

[rustic nova]

yeah most ppl in NA would be asleep rn

[charred rapids]

All of us having duds? Nah.

[radiant vigil]

oh i just yeeted all my berries and i need 3 razz now, oops

[rustic nova]

really hoping they like, give more quests in the limited time thing or something because of this

[charred rapids]

Agreed, a typical Niantic move though.

[rustic nova]

unfortunately it is yeah

[radiant vigil]

look at their kanto tour compensation, they know how to compensate well

[rustic nova]

😐

[odd glade]

[charred rapids]

Yeah don’t hold ya breath for a makeup, I really hope you guys do get it but just look at their history.

[radiant vigil]

that's why rn i'm leaving the alts alone, already not expecting anything haha

[charred rapids]

Oh you wasted lucky eggs when we broke the friendship xp? Don’t worry, you get nothing

[rustic nova]

i mean i am only halfway through, so if i wait until its fixed i should AT LEAST get one but oof

[odd glade]

Just rip 40k stardust bc I don't have it registered on main

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

They still haven’t posted anything, you’d think any sort of company would be right on this huh.

Kind of a big deal

[rustic nova]

yeaaah

[radiant vigil]

they're sleeping too

[charred rapids]

If they’re sleeping, how’d it happen

Set a random ass timer maybe?

[radiant vigil]

left something that shouldn't be running on maybe

[rustic nova]

its like a buttdial but sleeprelease

[radiant vigil]

yes, that is the perfect way to phrase it

[crude nacelle]

Just wanted to come in here and

[charred rapids]

So one?

[rustic nova]

lucky, we are pretty sure its not actually boosted rn

[radiant vigil]

oooh, it exists

[crude nacelle]

out of 6 encounters (2 pages), I got that shiny.

6 is still an extremely small sample size, but I did want to share my results.

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Some people probably got it on their first, doesn’t help regardless but congrats

[radiant vigil]

maybe it's smeargle odds all over again bwahaha

[crude nacelle]

The Smeargle event was bullshit I never want to think about that Pokémon again. 🙂

[charred rapids]

Agreed, I got one and I’m complaining, couldn’t imagine the people who missed it completely.

But it’s okay there’s people here that got 6-7 makes sense.

[crude nacelle]

I got it on an alt, but I don't count that as me getting one.

Since there will be a stardust cost associated with that (and I didn't get the moveset that I wanted)

[charred rapids]

I didn’t care about the move set as much as most, dunno why.

Still ain’t useful.

[crude nacelle]

It's neat for locking Rockets with Lock-On and fast Charge Moves

[charred rapids]

Mmmm fair

[crude nacelle]

I was even taking pics of Lock-On/Power-Up Punch Smeargle for half the event 😦
I'm still really salty.

[rustic nova]

may not have gotten the marill but just got a shadow teddiursa that can purify to a hundo

so thats cool

[charred rapids]

Actually now that ya bring up smeargle and rockets it would be fun to give it dark types against the ghost rockets

[rustic nova]

15/13/13, and i already have a 15/15/14 shadow teddy so might as well purify it lol

[radiant vigil]

Lol I just stick Darkrai on rockets hehe

[charred rapids]

Yeah but Darkrai is just easy

[crude nacelle]

oh yeah i usually just use whatever Legendary/Mythical/Lucario is most effective vs the grunt, but Smeargle potentially 1v3'ing a Rocket is hilarious

[charred rapids]

I need to lucky trade mine, I want a maxed out one now.

Level 50 shiny smeargle

[radiant vigil]

I'm too lazy for spicy teams

[crude nacelle]

I was going to say "that's not necessary you are basically just timing them out while they can't attack"
but it's possible that they can get one hit in and you'll really want that extra HP lmao

[rustic nova]

https://prnt.sc/12m4iwr

[radiant vigil]

Stun lock is a lot of fun though haha

[crude nacelle]

Lock On/Power-Up Punch
Lock On/Flying Press

Those are the movesets that are being discussed. I managed to get both of them in the event.

[charred rapids]

HEEEEY

[rustic nova]

so its just gonna happen again, but we can still do it

[radiant vigil]

Heyyyyyyy

[rustic nova]

so we basically got it twice lol

[charred rapids]

They actually did something for the community.

[radiant vigil]

Omg ok go wild time

[rustic nova]

go ahead and finish it everyone, unless you dont wanna waste pokeballs

[crude nacelle]

appreciate the screenshot!
but i def want to verify on their twitter to make sure this isn't photoshopped

[charred rapids]

But I guess they have to or they lose their wallets

[rustic nova]

oh sure go ahead

here

[crude nacelle]

thanks!

[crisp relic]

Krabs has given 1 'General Rep' to griffin that guy.

[rustic nova]

so yeah go crazy everyone haha

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Well I made progress may as well finish it

[crude nacelle]

sameeeeee

[rustic nova]

this is quite literally the best thing they couldve done i think, other than boosting the odds rn and also doing it again, but i dont think that would make sense to do

[crude nacelle]

better finish it before they yank it

[rustic nova]

yeah xd

[charred rapids]

imagine

oh you could of stopped, but ya continued, no reset for you

[crude nacelle]

LMAO

nah this is actually best case scenario.
free marill xl candy

[charred rapids]

So does that mean for those who didn’t make progress don’t get to?

[rustic nova]

no i think everyone can do it rn

[crude nacelle]

I'm not sure, that's really interesting.

[charred rapids]

Am I reading this right

[rustic nova]

but its just happening again, but boosted

[charred rapids]

They said for anyone that made progress though

[rustic nova]

oh idk then

[muted kayak]

Marill need only 25 candies to evolve so its a nice little xp boost

[charred rapids]

So if someone had it but didn’t touch it, can they touch it now? I’d be scared

[radiant vigil]

Lol I just went ahead and did 2 more pages

[rustic nova]

it says itll be reset for anyone who made progress before it starts officially

[crude nacelle]

I'm completing it tonight.

[charred rapids]

Only two? Do em all mate may as well.

[radiant vigil]

Oh I am lol

[rustic nova]

so i think its fine to do it all rn

[radiant vigil]

Just realised I left my umbrella at work lmao

If it rains Gg

[crude nacelle]

I love the people on twitter that are bitching because their time and pokeballs were wasted and they didn't get a shiny.
Like, the event is also happening during the scheduled time on Sunday so why you mad?

[radiant vigil]

Eh extra candy and exo

[rustic nova]

yeah, i understand complaining before u knew it was essentially just happening again, but itll be fine now so

[radiant vigil]

No complaints here

[quasi fulcrum]

So I'm a returning player and I just heard about lucky pokemon and old pokemon guaranteeing lucky trades. I don't have any lucky pokemon yet, but I do have over 10 dratini/dragonair from july 2016. How valuable are they

[charred rapids]

Uhhhh pretty dang valuable, I’d say.

[rustic nova]

dragonite is pretty good and its also a very popular pokemon so yeah

[radiant vigil]

Definitely, you've got 10 guaranteed luckies to get now, and you're offering something sweet too

[crude nacelle]

If you had asked in 2018 (?) when the Lucky mechanic went live, they would have been a lot more valuable (best non-Legendary Dragon, legacy moveset of Dragonbreath/Dragon Claw, etc) but now not so much. They're still great, but you'll benefit more than your trade partner will (which may not matter to them tbh)

[radiant vigil]

Although now you can get draco meteor on them for this event

[crude nacelle]

Draco Meteor is bad 😦

[radiant vigil]

I know, single bar charge move yucky

[crude nacelle]

yeah 😦

[radiant vigil]

But if you like the exclusives

[crude nacelle]

I keep a perfect Draco Meteor Dragonite simply for the collection 🙂

double moved ofc, so it's still usable

[rustic nova]

GOT A HUNDO

[radiant vigil]

Anyone got shiny yet? XD

[crude nacelle]

me, but y'all knew that 😂

[quasi fulcrum]

So like could I get like desirable shinies for these?

[charred rapids]

If people are willing to give them

For basic dratini

[radiant vigil]

Yeah shinies are subjective, just need to find someone who doesn't care about them

[crude nacelle]

Personally, the most I'd be willing to trade for a non-Shiny Dratini that's guaranteed Lucky is like Community Day Shiny or another Shiny that was super widespread.

So, depends on how much you like Charmander

[charred rapids]

Don’t forget they’re a returning player, charmander is probably one for sure

[crude nacelle]

true!

[charred rapids]

Who don’t like the overrated charizard?

[rustic nova]

true xD

[crude nacelle]

Bulbasaur Gang!

but not the shiny ew Venusaur looks sick

[radiant vigil]

[rustic nova]

i am part of squirtle squad

[radiant vigil]

I have a soft spot for bulba cos I end up as bulba all the time in mystery dungeon lol

[charred rapids]

Yeah the moment they released squirtle with the shades was the moment the other two were just sunk

[crude nacelle]

i just really like the cute onion frog

[rustic nova]

i didnt play when they released squirtle with the shades, im sad

[radiant vigil]

Someone here have shundo shades squirtle?

[charred rapids]

Like legit one of the best things they’ve done

[radiant vigil]

Close enough

[crude nacelle]

hey, i think i've got the same stats on mine lmao

[rustic nova]

i really really hope it comes back some day

[charred rapids]

Ayyyyye

[crude nacelle]

ugh the shades pissed me off. they just copy/pasted the summer pikachu shades and didn't use the anime squirtle squad ones

[radiant vigil]

The shades are lamer I agree

[charred rapids]

Yeah I know, the fun thing was though wherever got the shiny shade squirtle, everyone was able to get it from that stop

[crude nacelle]

yeah that was a really cool feature of that community day.
it was the first c day after moving to a new city, so it def helped me meet some people

[radiant vigil]

Happy family though

[rustic nova]

i only started playing GO last april, i missed so much goodness

[charred rapids]

You missed the game when it was actually top tier, I’m sorry for your loss

[rustic nova]

ive still had a really good time playing it

[radiant vigil]

Better late than never

[crude nacelle]

God I still remember the OG Weather event. That's when I started going hard.
Rayquaza won so we got eggs that hatched into Pokemon that like Windy weather.

I was so happy every time a Bagon or a Dratini hatched

[charred rapids]

Yeah the fact you still got into it and had fun, that’s the main thing

[radiant vigil]

Everytime ray came out the raid passes would fly out the door

[crude nacelle]

oh definitely.
It was only this past Ray event that I slowed down on the Ray raids.

And now I can't because fucking XL Candy is a thing

[radiant vigil]

I miss my old raid crew for those 3 hour raid events though, fun driving and raiding haha

[crude nacelle]

oh that was so much fun

[charred rapids]

I still didn’t max out my 98 shine Ray I missed so much recently.

[rustic nova]

i think they just turned off the research completely

didnt get the next stage of it

[radiant vigil]

Oh no I wasn't done

[charred rapids]

Between work and these shit events half the time, I dunno, I’ve lost the drive

[radiant vigil]

I'm on the train so no spawns lmao

[crude nacelle]

3 hours of raids, followed by a late lunch where we all just shittalked mystic and valor

[charred rapids]

Yeah no they halted it mine dropped too

[radiant vigil]

👀

[rustic nova]

oof

[crude nacelle]

😬

[rustic nova]

ay, i got a hundo out of it at least

[muted kayak]

12 pages are gone 😅
At least i was able to complete the 50 fairy pokemon research

[crude nacelle]

wait are the marill research tasks going away until Sunday now?

[rustic nova]

only missed out on like 6 pages i think, so i prob wouldnt have gotten the shiny anyway

[crude nacelle]

oh oof

rip, i was taking it slow.

guess i'll just finish this page now then

[rustic nova]

hey you got an early shiny so its not that bad i think

[crude nacelle]

yeah!

[radiant vigil]

Ah yeah it's gone after it finished the page 😦

[crude nacelle]

and i got a perfect azurill yesterday so i'm not upset at all

[rustic nova]

im really hoping for a shundo, thatd be awesome

[radiant vigil]

I guess counting by the marills I have was probs 3/4 done

[crude nacelle]

I've got 3 shundos that are insane, I'm good if I don't get another shundo.

[charred rapids]

I only did like 7 pages dang it

[rustic nova]

my only shundo is latias so im not complaining about that haha

just that the shiny azurill line is one of my favorite shinies, so itd just be cool

[charred rapids]

Yeah I’m grateful for my shundo’s too. Happy and content

[radiant vigil]

shundo love

[rustic nova]

i got a shundo sneasel during that day on like my 5th account

[radiant vigil]

3 is really good

[rustic nova]

but that doesnt really count cuz its not on my main

[radiant vigil]

Ouch shundo on alt

[crude nacelle]

so close to getting a 4th shundo a couple days ago. Shiny Timburr hatch that's 14/15/15 😭

[radiant vigil]

First shundo I saw was my very casual bfs latias. He was trying to get a shiny to trade to me

[radiant vigil]

I have 2 98 shiny groudon

[crude nacelle]

oh OOF

that's terrible 😦

[charred rapids]

Oooof I have a 98 shiny conkeldurr, has attack though

[radiant vigil]

At least they both have the atk stat haha

[charred rapids]

Yeah I dunno why, missing attack stat bugs me more than it should

[radiant vigil]

It bugs me. I have a 96 shiny kyogre, 13/15/15

[crude nacelle]

missing attack also bugs me

i'll refuse to power up 14/15/15 pokemon and instead power up a 93 with 15 attack

[radiant vigil]

I know the feeling

[charred rapids]

I prefer HP missing at least, when you max it out it basically has the same stats as a hundo so hey, it may as well be a hundo.

[crude nacelle]

yeah agree

[radiant vigil]

Yeah my shiny groudon are functionally fine haha

Just can't do the shlundo flex

[crude nacelle]

yeah some pokemon are functionally fine.

[radiant vigil]

I can't touch the 13atk 96 though, nope. And it's not lucky either

[crude nacelle]

I don’t know how to feel about this

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Yeah? I don’t know how to feel about a 93 with attack, but 400 candy being so damn much for something so rare....

[radiant vigil]

I'm not sure either, pvpers would hate it

[charred rapids]

I don’t feel 93 is good enough.

[radiant vigil]

Ugh noibat. Have to walk the thing again for candy

[crude nacelle]

Noibat is that Pokemon that you hold on to for every Lucky Trade until you get a good one.

[radiant vigil]

Only ever caught and hatched one

[charred rapids]

Issue is I give people the good one, I get trash in return.

I gave someone a hundo Xerneas the other day

[radiant vigil]

[crude nacelle]

😭

[radiant vigil]

I've gotten 4 hundos from like 5000 trades

[charred rapids]

But my absolute worst trade, giving someone a shundo spiritomb.

Was mad.

[radiant vigil]

fuck

[crude nacelle]

oh i'd be mad too holy shit

[rustic nova]

ive given my alt like 10 hundos

have only gotten 2 back

[crude nacelle]

Here’s what I’ve gotten.

[radiant vigil]

SHUNDO MEWTWO

[crude nacelle]

5796 trades

[rustic nova]

that mewtwo

[crude nacelle]

oh yeah i thought people knew i had that

[radiant vigil]

You know what I got when I lucky traded shiny mewtwo? 12/12/12

[crude nacelle]

OOF

[charred rapids]

Y’all don’t wanna know my trades though.

[crude nacelle]

yeah i used to get Lucky 12/12/12 Chansey anytime I would swap those. I was so upset lmao

[radiant vigil]

It's the only shiny mewtwo I have so I didn't delete, but it pisses me off when I see it lol

[crude nacelle]

Oh that rubber chicken is really nice

[charred rapids]

33,700 trades

[crude nacelle]

jesus christ

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Oooooooo yeeeee

My badge lookin real platinum

[crude nacelle]

All my trading partners are always trading with each other 😭

[radiant vigil]

It's a race to get the logins first Lol

[crude nacelle]

I always tell them what I'm looking for and they're like "oh I trashed like 30 of those an hour ago"

[charred rapids]

My lucky trades don’t want to lucky trade, they prefer to sit on their ass and ignore your existence when you tag them in the chat.

[rustic nova]

ive done i think around 6k trades w my alt, and have only gotten 2 hundos on my main

[crude nacelle]

[radiant vigil]

I got in first yesterday, gave my friend 98 lucky spritzee

[crude nacelle]

HOLY SHIT THIS

[charred rapids]

Because why work so much to become best friends, get lucky and not do it

[crude nacelle]

I'm at 39/161 Lucky Friends right now. And it bothers me so much.

[charred rapids]

Like hey, give me a freaking goomy or something? Doesn’t even have to be rare just do the dang trade

[crude nacelle]

I would love a Goomy swap with a Lucky Friend.

[rustic nova]

i have 2 lucky friends, one of them lives in greece and im just here in oregon

[crude nacelle]

☝️ this is why I don't like adding people on Discord.

[charred rapids]

Yeah i have two goomy, haven’t seen them since then though, keeping both for a lucky trade hopefully.

[crude nacelle]

"share your login"
last time I did that, dude traded one of my 98 Chanseys to himself.

[charred rapids]

Yeah never share, I mean if they have your account you can’t expect them to honour the agreement

They’ll take whatever.

[crude nacelle]

yeah, true.
I've since reset my password and have only shared with very very close friends.

and then one like really trustworthy guy in my local discord

[radiant vigil]

Wtf

[charred rapids]

I don’t even do that, if my close buds can’t make the effort to see me in the same bloody town not even a 10 minute drive away for a lucky trade we should of done 6 months ago I don’t know what to do

[radiant vigil]

The people I share with I know irl only...

[charred rapids]

I don’t share, I don’t trust anyone that much, for 1200 shines, some more valuable than what most people have at all, my snorlax would be instantly gone.

[crude nacelle]

yeah, i only share with people i know irl as well.
like, a group of people i used to go drinking with and was going to be roommates with

that, and irl friends that i've made an effort to keep in contact with post-COVID

[radiant vigil]

Yeah we all have each other's login, dangerous circle lol

[rustic nova]

dont think ill ever give my login to someone i dont know irl

dont really trust it in general, but my main account also uses my personal email so

[charred rapids]

When you have a shiny Gabite but with such a dumb trainer name

[rustic nova]

GOD thats awful

[crude nacelle]

what are you talking about, that's an amazing name

[radiant vigil]

the person you renamed? 😛

[rustic nova]

the alt i made that got a shundo sneasel was just corn(then a billion numbers)

[charred rapids]

I DIDNT THINK IT WOULD WORK

But I’m glad it was the final name change and he wanted his account back

[crude nacelle]

LMAO

[radiant vigil]

the beautiful name remains

[charred rapids]

He’s stuck with it, that’s fine with me, I still have something to remember it by

[radiant vigil]

i love it, it’s exactly what i expected when you first mentioned it lol

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

Ayyyye I got that 98 Xerneas back, thought it could run from me the first time around

[radiant vigil]

i scammed a 96 one yesterday lol

[crude nacelle]

congrats!

[charred rapids]

Same cp as the one i missed with you Krabs

Missing HP, I think that’s good enough for something so bad.

[radiant vigil]

yeah mine wb turned into 15/15/13 lol. wasn’t even lucky...

[charred rapids]

I don’t even want to power it up, I’d rather waste the resources on a bloody Kyurem at this point.

[radiant vigil]

lol no I’m not wasting dust on this until xerneas gets better moves

[charred rapids]

Which will be awhile.

[radiant vigil]

I’m going to be stuck on that power up 48 mons for a while

[charred rapids]

Lot of legendaries have to get their signature moves still, Xerneas will be in line for awhile.

[radiant vigil]

it’s a loooooong line

[charred rapids]

I think I’ve already done that, powered up lucky hundos that were like couple hundred cp.

Pelipper for example

[radiant vigil]

yeah I need to find cheap stuff I’m willing to burn dust on, but I’m not willing

[radiant vigil]

i powered up one mm metagross a little, that’s all

[charred rapids]

Then you get this

[radiant vigil]

oh cmon, I’ve done like 5 leaders yesterday

ugh

[charred rapids]

Yeah I’ve turned off my radars, got one from the Gio research and then 3 from the mew

4 radars is too crucial for me right now, I have to hatch eggs though don’t want to waste not getting 12’s

[radiant vigil]

i didn’t realise lol, used them all bwahaha

[charred rapids]

I need to check level 50 to make sure leaders aren’t in that one too...

[radiant vigil]

not worried about 50 for a while yet

[charred rapids]

Nah we good.

[radiant vigil]

is there like a 5 excellent throws in a row or something lmao

[charred rapids]

No rocket leaders at all, visit stop 15 days in a row, win 15 battles in go battle league stuff like that

[radiant vigil]

ah easy stuff

[charred rapids]

Yeah you actually are right on point there is a 5 excellent throw in a row

[radiant vigil]

oh lmao

[charred rapids]

Catch 5000 Pokémon

[radiant vigil]

that makes me miss my old friend gotcha

[charred rapids]

Win 50 raids, yeah just normal stuff

[radiant vigil]

if you give me good stuff, I’ll do 50 raids niantic

[charred rapids]

But man most of those rewards.

[radiant vigil]

lol noibat

[charred rapids]

10 premium raid passes, 10 supers, 10 incense, a noibat encounter, a random unown, a mewtwo that can shine

[radiant vigil]

mewtwo guaranteed or nah? probs not?

[charred rapids]

Shiny? Nah

[radiant vigil]

probs no psystrike or something cool either

[charred rapids]

Only a chance, which would be a cool achievement since it might have it written on the bottom where ya got it from.

[radiant vigil]

truuuue. hard to flex though

[charred rapids]

Really is.

[radiant vigil]

if the rewards are low iv, I’m trashing whether or not they have a fancy label at the bottom

[charred rapids]

Don’t we get Axew for 48, I need to look

[radiant vigil]

i don’t even have haxorus

[charred rapids]

Yeah it’s the last reward basically.

The claim reward section

Same actually, I don’t evolve anything unless it has amazing IV’s, got the candy, don’t have the one I want

[radiant vigil]

6 more axew candy

yeah my story with deino...they trash, no evolve

[charred rapids]

205 candy, but no.

[radiant vigil]

defo NO

13atk, that’s burning ma eyessss

[charred rapids]

Yeah that’s a waste of candy, won’t do it

[radiant vigil]

very waste

[charred rapids]

Not transferring it until I get a better one though, I’ve hatched a total of 1

[radiant vigil]

i dont even know how many i have lol

[charred rapids]

See if I can sneak one from someone in a lucky trade

[radiant vigil]

Bleg

i had 2

[charred rapids]

Ewww you’re in the same boat as meee

[radiant vigil]

oh other is a best buddy with almost identical iv but not lucky

hatched it apparently, and walked the exact amount it would take to evolve one haxorus

[charred rapids]

Best buddy Axew that’s trash? Oooooof

[radiant vigil]

gotta get the candy somehow

[charred rapids]

Yeah I suppose you’re right but I don’t think you need to interact with it....unless you’re doin poffins for half distance

[radiant vigil]

i guess i just took the snapshot and pet it daily, and threw berries at it when i needed space

i walked with it so long it eventually hit best friends, like my trash noibat is rn

[charred rapids]

oh Lordy

[radiant vigil]

except i still need like 250 noibat candy

[charred rapids]

Yeah same, not in a hurry though, if I don’t got a good one what’s the point

[radiant vigil]

yeah I’ll just get the candy ready

not sure what i want to buddy rn, so might as well get some candy now until i make up my mind...

[odd glade]

Probably posted here already but yay

I can already see some trainers that it wouldn't reset for them

[charred rapids]

Yeah posted already but nice refresher for those who might of missed it

[radiant vigil]

regrets not fully finishing hahaha

[charred rapids]

At least you had access to it, most of America was asleep during this

They’ll wake up and not even understand what happened

[radiant vigil]

dw what they don’t know won’t hurt them

[crude nacelle]

American here. It's 4am. Why am I not in bed yet?

[radiant vigil]

why are you awake

[crude nacelle]

my sleep schedule is fucked

it's what happens when you go to online school and play video games all day

[radiant vigil]

to be fair, you’re not the only American i know who’s probs still awake at this time

it’s the video games

[crude nacelle]

it's always the video games 😭

[radiant vigil]

dangerous

tomorrow is Saturday, so i guess i can stay up late with no regrets

[charred rapids]

I work at like 5am I don’t have a choice sometimes

[radiant vigil]

here i get pissed when they start the demolition next door at 7am lol

[rustic nova]

im american too xd

almost 4am, still up

[radiant vigil]

👀 omg here i thought you were probs our timezone cos that’s peak Aussie hour

[rustic nova]

haha yeah, sleep doesnt really come to me that easily

havent gone to sleep before 6am in quite a long time

[radiant vigil]

ouch that’s kinda annoying

[rustic nova]

Next CD will be more interesting

[odd glade]

Are you sure their account wasn't hacked?

Or maybe I need to wear my glasses

[twilit sapphire]

Finally

[odd glade]

rip Tepig tho

[twilit sapphire]

we know all the starters will have CD anyways

[surreal parrot]

Lol who cares about tepig, gible CD ftw

Hopefully similar manner to swablu, and will coincide with mega release shortly after

[spark mountain]

For me it’s Ok, but still i’d prefer something new

[charred rapids]

Hmmmm

[radiant vigil]

Lmao when we all think they got jacked 🤣

Ah it's on their fb too

[steel parcel]

they must rly be trying to build hype by announcing next month’s CD before this month’s takes place

[radiant vigil]

Yee

[tight pilot]

Damn gible CD

Also my game is still broken this morning... wtf figured this would be fixed

[radiant vigil]

Also a video on their insta

Seems legit unless alllll their accounts got hacked

[odd glade]

I do.

[analog steeple]

You all think highly of hackers if you think they hacked niantic and started doing promo for them instead of typing like, “yer AlL so Gey for playing Pokémon”

[tight pilot]

Oop or just taking an suuuuper long time to load any assets i guess & oh shit thats actually hype, shoulda been this months instead but cant complain

[surreal parrot]

[radiant vigil]

Lol watch the game crash so bad

[steel parcel]

i’m glad it’s not this month! i’m getting my 2nd vaccination 2 days before swablu CD and i know i’ll be too dead to go out

[tight pilot]

Oh it’ll be a write off that day

[radiant vigil]

I forgot about swablu

[steel parcel]

most people (americans) should be vaccinated by june

[analog steeple]

For the record, I completely love and support my LGBTQIA+ homies. Internet trolls always bigotry as their insults though

[radiant vigil]

The moment Japan gets online it's going to crash

[charred rapids]

The one thing I’m more excited about over the shiny is, the XL candy

[steel parcel]

i’m excited to finally max my hundo gible. still need like 100 xl candy

[charred rapids]

Level 50 garchomp that can mega evolve

[steel parcel]

yummy

[analog steeple]

I have till June to get to 40 so I can grind XL candies on my hundo

[radiant vigil]

Maybe I can finally reroll a good one

[steel parcel]

almost definitely going to be wb here so i’m hypeee

[odd glade]

inb4 it's a pikachu with a gible hat

[rustic nova]

cannot wait for gible day tbh

[radiant vigil]

All out griiiiind

[rustic nova]

imagine a deino comm day

[radiant vigil]

Did you get some sleep?

[rustic nova]

nope lol

[steel parcel]

no but then my lucky shundo deino won’t be rare anymore

^all of reddit, probably

[rustic nova]

xd

[radiant vigil]

Shundo deino nani?!

[rustic nova]

already saw someone complaining about their shundo gible not being rare anymore under pokemongo's tweet

[radiant vigil]

More salt to marinate my shiny gible yes

[rustic nova]

still sad that shiny garchomp is barely different

[radiant vigil]

Saddest part

[steel parcel]

mega should be released shortly after

[rustic nova]

but im assuming mega garchomp will be releasing with that day

yeah

[charred rapids]

And with that we have one of the best ground types for now

[radiant vigil]

Groudon can have a new battle frand

[charred rapids]

Until they release primal Groudon.

[steel parcel]

and he’s pink!!! one ticket for the hype train pls

[radiant vigil]

Pink shinies 🤤

[steel parcel]

i simp for them

[rustic nova]

maybe one day they'll make shiny garchomp match the mega

[radiant vigil]

Me too

[rustic nova]

and maybe they'll do the same with gengar

[odd glade]

Pink shinies vs Green shinies 👀

[charred rapids]

isnt it funny that before everyone was crying for gible com day now everyones complaining coz its not rare anymore🤔

[radiant vigil]

It's like the 0.1% complaining, rest of us are hype

[charred rapids]

xl candies👀

mega garchomp👀👀

[radiant vigil]

Maybe I can finally get that dragon platinum badge lol

[charred rapids]

do u have shiny gible?

[radiant vigil]

Na

All my lucky trades also go to shits when gible is involved

[charred rapids]

i managed to get a hundo when it was in research

got a shiny on go fest

[radiant vigil]

I guess I never went after gible like crazy but did give it a decent shot

Had fun stacking 3 excellent throws in a row quests

[charred rapids]

does garchomp learn earth power

[tight pilot]

Got a 98% gible at the ready but never went too hard on gibles either so def excited for this cday

[radiant vigil]

That's the important question, will niantic give it earth power?

[charred rapids]

if it does learn

that then they will change it to a one bar move

[tight pilot]

They’ll give it an exclusive dark move or some crap knowin niantic

[charred rapids]

or something stupid

[radiant vigil]

no

[steel parcel]

dragon medal pulling ahead, almost at the finish line

can i just say i love this event

dragon, dark and ghost are the last 3 platinums i need and i thought dragon would take a year at least

[charred rapids]

what a nice name for a badge

Delinquent

Man thats my favorite badge

[steel parcel]

it is a great name :)

alliteration!

[radiant vigil]

Whoa more dragons than dark bois 👀

[steady acorn]

wew june com day is cool

gible is gonna be so rare

[pulsar thunder]

What's the May com day?

[spark mountain]

Swablu

[rustic nova]

Two dragons in a row, maybe they’ll keep it going

[fallen quarry]

theres been a bunch of xerneas spawning around me but no one here plays pokemon go anymore :'(

[radiant vigil]

You can post it up in #pogo_raids and see if anyone here is keen to do it with you

[charred rapids]

isnt swablu normal and flying?

[fallen quarry]

dragon type

[fallen quarry]

i need to use a remote raid pass tho, right? instead of a normal one

[charred rapids]

nah

[radiant vigil]

You can go to the gym and use a normal pass if you're physically there. The people you invite would be using remotes

[fallen quarry]

okaaay, ive just seen in more popular locations theres a different lobby for remote and normal

[tight pilot]

Booted up the referral acct for hosting purposes last night for the first time since making it, got the first wild shiny on it @ 345 caught ... too bad was a nidoran

[rustic nova]

Ye but it evolves into a dragon that’s what I meant

[charred rapids]

ah ok

[dusty oracle]

Getting Chomp as a Mega after Comm Day would be a bit of a stretch, given it'd make Mega Salamence, Latias and Latios irrelevant before they even launch. (PoGo Mega Chomp is a better dragon than all three. :/ )

[charred rapids]

true

[wintry hinge]

Did anyone else get the notif from pogo that said something like “almost there! Catch enough fairy types and you’ll unlock pancham in raids!” But then there’s like no counter or anything and literally nothing in the news tab about it lol

[cold saffron]

they only announce the progress via Twitter I think, last time we were around 90% done

[primal sluice]

someone send arlo to me T.T

[odd glade]

"It;s unfair it was one of the rarest shinies"

[wintry hinge]

Ahh ok gotcha, I don’t even look at their Twitter lol

[primal sluice]

gible CD on june 6

[pulsar thunder]

Lol need Arlo too

[wintry hinge]

I legit just saw someone say that on Twitter about their shundo gible I’m

[lusty spoke]

GIBLE DAY

[wintry hinge]

I know I’m about to go HAM those gibles won’t know what hit em (it’ll be a pokeball)

[rotund copper]

I’m pretty disappointed about Gible comm day, ngl

[charred rapids]

why?

[primal sluice]

i wonder why

[rotund copper]

Thanks Niantic, worst birthday gift ever

[charred rapids]

why?

[rotund copper]

The past 3 comm days have been for the few shiny Pokémon I got outside of comm day

[charred rapids]

think about the lovely xls tho

[rotund copper]

cries in Level 37

[crude nacelle]

Smh no one pinged me for Gible C Day.
I’m so excited.

[wintry hinge]

You’ll still have those shiny ones you got before everyone had them, those ones are rare. Also it sucks you can’t get xl candy but you can still farm regular candy

[rotund copper]

You make a good point

[primal sluice]

that is till june 6th thou XD

[crude nacelle]

I know but I’m just excited that it’s happening. I’ll finally get a fucking perfect one.

[woeful pulsar]

i'm deffo aiming for a shundo this CD

gonna drive everywhere

[raw pulsar]

how do you grind for shint gibles ont he community day?

[crude nacelle]

Tap on every gible you see until one is shiny. Rates are high for the featured Pokémon.

[primal sluice]

XD i meannnnnn high chance but not guarantee XD

[raw pulsar]

fair

[crude nacelle]

You maybe can’t guarantee a perfect for yourself, but I can.

I’ve gotten a perfect every community day I’ve wanted one.

[primal sluice]

T.T wow the flexes XD

[raw pulsar]

xd

[primal sluice]

just get me a shundo and im good :V

[flint wind]

is shadow metagross good? just got an almost hundo shadow beldum (if purified it would be a hundo) and dont know if its worth evolving

[raw pulsar]

Aren’t these rare?

My guy bidoof transformed xd

[crude nacelle]

shadow metagross is incredibly good, you'll need Bullet Punch/Meteor Mash on it as a moveset.

[flint wind]

its a 14 14 14 so yea im gonna evo it

[crude nacelle]

Yeah they're rare, but they're essentially useless outside of completing a couple quests.

[raw pulsar]

ahh

[flint wind]

847 cp metagross lmao

[crude nacelle]

oh i was going to tell you to wait

[flint wind]

o

[crude nacelle]

Meteor Mash is an event move, so you can only get it by waiting for an event where it's available or by using an Elite Charge TM on it.

[flint wind]

welp
i did a dum

now to wait for another elite charged tm

[crude nacelle]

And also you'll need to wait for an event where you can TM Frustration off of it. I think we're due for one, so watch Niantic's twitter.

or you can second move it for now, but that could be a bit expensive lmao

[flint wind]

im saving to 2nd move shadow ttar rn

the shadows im workin on rn are slowking ttar metagross and victreebel

i have a comp ready shadow mewtwo/bellossom already

[tight pilot]

You purify it i’ll cry

[flint wind]

be proud i didnt

[tight pilot]

Phewww, das a good feebas

[charred rapids]

so happy i didnt evolve my hundo gible

[tight pilot]

Anyone else getting the “GPS signal not found (11)” error off and on since last night or just me?

[charred rapids]

I have shadows to try and get to at least 40 such an expensive venture though

[charred rapids]

ik i just spent 495k maxing and double moving shadow mewtwo

Oh my mewtwo is done, didn’t double move it because eh it’s fine with the one

i got psycho cut, ice beam and shadow ball

I have psystrike, pretty dang quick and stab coming from a shadow mon.

i will probably use it mostly for raids

Then psystrike would be a better alternative wouldn’t it? Shadow ball is mostly good for ghost types which also happen to be good against mewtwo anyway

for psychic types

then ice beam for flying

loads of legendaries are those types i think

[primal sluice]

been getting this from time to time i had to set my phone to airplane mode for a min and turn it back on and then it fix but it still happen from time to time for me

[tight pilot]

Im glad im not the only one going crazy here i found switching to LTE then back to wifi works as well !

[primal sluice]

sometimes for me when loading it stays on black screen for too long than usual sometimes too T.T

[rich torrent]

y’all i’m debating whether or not i should move my shiny milotic and politoed over to swsh from go. anyone have thoughts??

[tight pilot]

Shinys? Those are both nice shinys in go and swsh shinys super ez to get from raids so imo dont

[rich torrent]

okay!! thanks for the input :))

[crisp relic]

lilgluten has given 1 'General Rep' to MellowMitch / IGN - Taylor.

[primal sluice]

[raw pulsar]

[tight pilot]

Stronk girly she be

[radiant vigil]

Him them before they hit you then it's ok

[primal sluice]

[radiant vigil]

Morning 👀

[primal sluice]

morninggggggg to uuuu

and night for meeeeeeee XD

[radiant vigil]

Still in bed lol

[primal sluice]

hahahaha how nice :V

[radiant vigil]

Was too lazy to get up, I will now for some gymssss

[primal sluice]

ayeeeeeee get that daily :V

[radiant vigil]

Yeah need to, nothing rn

[fallen quarry]

why are all the team rocket guys so powerful ;-; i cant progress any of my quests

[earnest wind]

So I need to beat Cliff and of course I got Arlo, can I just ignore him and try 6 hours later or is he gonna keep showing up until he’s beaten?

[primal sluice]

u can ignore him that is what im doing sometimes they be pain in the a.. but yea it will change eventually XD

[primal sluice]

and they change every 4 hours on the balloon

[rustic nova]

the rocket leader quests r really annoying when u can only get grunts and leaders from the balloons

[radiant vigil]

Rocket leaders are annoying when you never get the one you want

[rotund copper]

I'm actually really proud of myself

It's small, but I just managed to beat Giovanni while losing no Pokemon and using no Shields

Which is like super good for me, who usually takes a couple tries to beat him.

[radiant vigil]

Oooo that is pretty good, usually I burn at least one shield

[pulsar thunder]

What happens if I have two super rocket radars? Will it be Moltres both times?

[earnest wind]

I see, thank you 🙂

[crisp relic]

RockyRZ [Ace] has given 1 'General Rep' to Ryan Yang.

[primal sluice]

np

[tight pilot]

Yes, just use one but make sure you use it for the part of the quest that is for finding / beating / battling giovanni (which you should be on and why you would have 2 if you saved one from one of the last times they gave one (march or april)

Or take two shadow moltres if you want i guess but i wouldnt recommend, moltres isnt that great lul

[pulsar thunder]

Oh yeah I saved one from one of the missions, I think I was able to use one that completed two research tasks

And thanks

[earnest wind]

with shadow moltress i complete my kanto pokedex

[pulsar thunder]

Lucky, I have a long way to go and still need/want a mewtwo

[tight pilot]

Ahh you didnt play during Kanto event?

I did hear something about shadow mewtwo coming back so maybe sometime this year

Like in datamine, not official news

[pulsar thunder]

I don't think so, I started playing in December 2020; gotcha hoping for the best

[primal sluice]

speaking of which what are the mega raids for next week?

[earnest wind]

shadow legendaries are much easier to catch, but you can't transfer them so it's a double edge sword

[pulsar thunder]

Can't we purify them then transfer?

[tight pilot]

Idk bc ew megas

[earnest wind]

it takes 20,000 candies so good luck with that

[tight pilot]

But mega altaria comes out soon so theres that i guess

[radiant vigil]

I getcha

[pulsar thunder]

Mellow let me know if you're doing a Mega Charizard raid anytime lol

[tight pilot]

Dont purify shadow legends theyre stronger as shadow

[tight pilot]

I wont be but can host you one tomorrow or something! Have waaay too much mega zard energy from research / charmander comm day

[primal sluice]

XD ik ik but aye the mission say to do it for 2k xp sooo im stacking those xp rewards for the time i use my lucky egg :V

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah lol before I did some research and found this sever. I've already purified my shadow shiny pinsir lol

[earnest wind]

I only purify for those dumb tasks

[pulsar thunder]

Oh valid, do you just back out of the raids to not waste the passes?

[tight pilot]

Ohh just the battle in a mega raid? If so next time youre at your local gym (i know farcfor you still but i think you said airport had one?) If theres a mega raid just hop in with free pass then leave, you dont actually have to win it kek

[primal sluice]

got to make every second of that lucky egg worth it :V

[tight pilot]

And yeah i often just host so i invite 10-20 ppl then leave haha

[primal sluice]

XD i didnt get to check at the airport lmaooo my friend took me another way XD

[radiant vigil]

Invite then run

[tight pilot]

Tell them to drive past the airport gd

[primal sluice]

imma just used a remote pass dosent matter is my alt :V

[radiant vigil]

All passes lives matter!

Remotes too

[primal sluice]

is just my alt account not much pain to take in :V

[tight pilot]

My raids done for the night but nah i wouldnt make D3V1L waste a remote pass, if that were the case i’d send them in a lobby of 10

[radiant vigil]

[primal sluice]

ty king of hosting raids XD

[crisp relic]

Ryan Yang has given 1 'General Rep' to MellowMitch / IGN - Taylor.

[radiant vigil]

[earnest wind]

it's fun when you have 300 items past your bag limit so you delete a ton of stuff... thats what I did to collect enough grunt passes for a team rocker leader

[radiant vigil]

I just buy more bag space

[earnest wind]

No.

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah I appreciate it, I can't even take down 3 star raids solo so need the ppl power

[earnest wind]

I don't wanna give Niantic more money...

[pulsar thunder]

What's the ideal bag space and pokemon space?

[primal sluice]

70more coins for me to buy more back pack space :3

[pulsar thunder]

Get money from the gyms?

[radiant vigil]

I don't give niantic moolah gym coins only

(Apart from shiny mew Lol)

[earnest wind]

too bad I live in bad place with no gyms close by

[pulsar thunder]

Oh that sucks

[tight pilot]

And shiny ray / kyogre / groudon for me

[pulsar thunder]

The shiny ray is prob the best looking legendary

[tight pilot]

Dropped bout $100-125 for the three on remote passes alone

[radiant vigil]

Lol usually there's months of shit raids so I manage to hoard loads of coins for the good stuff

I hit like 8k coins from gyms at one point

[pulsar thunder]

What's everyone's strats on gyms? I try to have two to three if I can

[tight pilot]

Your smarter than I

[radiant vigil]

Hope there are free blue gyms

[primal sluice]

dont feel bad im the same rn trying to hit level 38 to request gym and pokestop XD

[radiant vigil]

And dump on the train line and hope for the best

Harder now that I moved to apartment heavy area xD

[tight pilot]

Have some close enough to me that i can flip em if i realllly need coins but most of the time i just drive through town and put in any gyms can usually get in 5+ just with one trip through downtown center lol

[earnest wind]

I'm level 32 its gonna take me a while

[primal sluice]

i try to get in as much as i can cuz when i go in town people kick me out fast

[radiant vigil]

Or I just get gyms laaaaate at night

[primal sluice]

34 for me XD soooo yea

[pulsar thunder]

There are like two gyms near me that are always yellow and they never let me get the full 50 lol but there are a few parks away that I can usually leave over night

[tight pilot]

I dump noibat / timburr , other randoms i need candy for in gyms and just dump berries into em bc i live ontop of two stops and berries are better wasted in gyms than to the trash can

[radiant vigil]

If I'm willing to walk 15 mins I can usually find something

[tight pilot]

Gotta find that time when theyre not awake and snipe it then

[pulsar thunder]

That's crazy living on top of gyms lol

[radiant vigil]

My dream

[pulsar thunder]

Lol there was one time I went for my morning coffee/walk and they booted me right when I got home

[tight pilot]

Walking is too much work just go for a lil drive, grab a coffee and hope no opps see ya playin pogo & driving

[radiant vigil]

The roads are so bad better to walk

[primal sluice]

I feel if I get this gym through it is just me on this gym hahahaha

[pulsar thunder]

Lol I like walking since I close my fitness ring on the apple watch

[tight pilot]

Yikes really?! I thought canada had bad roads ouff

And yeah i wish i had a gym ontop of me, i have one just a little ways out of my reach and i dont feel like walking up the street like... ever

[radiant vigil]

me

[radiant vigil]

More like only one road in and out and many streets are one way. I'd struggle to find parking too lol

[tight pilot]

So close ... yet so far

[radiant vigil]

I have the same with two gyms on the shopping mall haha

[pulsar thunder]

Hahaha

[radiant vigil]

2 mins walk, but not close enough

[tight pilot]

Ouff do you live in a big city? my town is like big but small so just slightly avoid most of those issues, some one ways but nothing too bad once ya know where your goin

[radiant vigil]

I live in a big city with urban sprawl and shit residential planning

[tight pilot]

Right like definitely not going outta my way to walk over there

[radiant vigil]

Easier to walk, cos I can take some....Shortcuts

[tight pilot]

Lol shit residential planning

Cant cut through the mall anymore

Or is your guys stuff open?

[radiant vigil]

Malls are open

[pulsar thunder]

Nice, ours are still closed

[radiant vigil]

Just bad infrastructure like roads that flood...the only road in

[tight pilot]

Yeah we just have like curbside pickup still

[pulsar thunder]

I've only done curbside once and it was cuz my dad didn't want to pay for shipping lol

[radiant vigil]

Ah we don't have much covid here so nearly back to normal

[tight pilot]

You just need a lifted kangaroo

[radiant vigil]

Kangaroo public transport

[pulsar thunder]

Oooh that's good, we were finally allowed to book vaccine appointments

[tight pilot]

They wifey does a lot of curbside pickup stuff, it aint bad, pretty easy from most

[radiant vigil]

Our vaccine roll-out is slow af haha

[tight pilot]

Yeahhh i gotta book one but like lazy and idrc tbh

[primal sluice]

i need to take my second dose tuesday T.T

[radiant vigil]

I can't even book it lol

Only over 50s rn

[pulsar thunder]

Lol, I booked mine with the hopes I can travel afterwards

[radiant vigil]

We can't even leave the country without an exemption

[pulsar thunder]

Australia?

[radiant vigil]

Yeah

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah I've read there and NZ are super strict

[radiant vigil]

Very very strict XD but it worked so it is what it is

[pulsar thunder]

Yeah I wish we were like that here in Canada

[radiant vigil]

Easier when you're an island

[tight pilot]

If you asked ppl from the USA they’d probably say canada is an island above them ... does .. does that count

[rotund copper]

*If you asked ppl from USA they’d say Canada doesn’t exist

[primal sluice]

XD my alt cannot kill the boss T.T

[rotund copper]

Source: I’m American

[radiant vigil]

[tight pilot]

We are imaginary people like a little dr. Seuss world

[pulsar thunder]

Lol kinda crazy how they only really know of one city maybe two

[rotund copper]

Uhh there’s uh Montreal

[tight pilot]

That is not the answer I expected

[radiant vigil]

Vancouver!

[pulsar thunder]

Same lol

[twilit sapphire]

Gible CD dropped right in our country's elections day

So people are just making memes about it

[analog steeple]

Anyone else randomly get a bunch of xp?

I keep a close eye on my xp and got 200k in the hour I last opened my game. Don’t have an auto catcher or anything, no level up with friends

[primal sluice]

free xp?

[radiant vigil]

Maybe they refunded you for the lucky egg friendship fiasco

[analog steeple]

That’s what I was thinking Milli

[radiant vigil]

yesssss

[primal sluice]

imagine if ninatic randomly give free xp XD

[radiant vigil]

I mean, it's more generous now than it used to be

[earnest wind]

Cliff is much harder than Giovanni

by a longshot

[radiant vigil]

Aerodactyl of doooom

[earnest wind]

this

[radiant vigil]

Pretty much I set up the team to bash aero and it's cool after that

[shy storm]

so i don't like how gifts say my location, is there a way to not have it show my location?

[charred rapids]

No, not like anyone would care either, just shows the stops location, not yours.

[shy storm]

i live in a very small town.... but whatever ig

need to run to a few towns around me so people won't know haha

[charred rapids]

No player cares where ya live.....especially if they ain’t even from there to begin with

Just paranoid

[shy storm]

i don't like doxing my self, have been threatened to get "swatted" before and the kid actually called the cops where i live, so i would say justified paranoia

[charred rapids]

Its.......it’s Pokémon

And again it’s not going to show your address, at all, just the suburb/town, ya think someone’s gonna try hard to pinpoint exactly where ya live from that?

[shy storm]

i understand that, thats why i still sent the gift, i live in a small town like really really really small but i don't think so just thought it would be nice if they had an option to hide the location

[charred rapids]

Do you live anywhere near the stop you get said gifts from?

[shy storm]

yeah, i live in a small town

[charred rapids]

I get that, is it within 100m? 1km?

On ya street?

[analog steeple]

Can always walk to a stop away from your house

[earnest wind]

nobody sees the gifts and thinks where they come from, people open them up while spamming x quickly and send another if they have one

[shy storm]

i understand that was just mainly asking if there was a way to hide it, my town has 3 stops and they are like really close, ill jsut send ones not from my town

[analog steeple]

Can’t hide it unfortunately

[shy storm]

meh its okay, ty tho

[earnest wind]

maybe vet those friends if you're worried about being doxxed, don't add randos

[charred rapids]

Keep close friends, families and feel free to add literally anyone out of state

[shy storm]

yeah thanks ill just make sure to stock on gifts from other places

i do think ill enjoy playing more pogo, i don't have anyone to do it with atm so any 3*+ raids are always out

[earnest wind]

I tried to do a tier 3 raid today and I immediately regretted it

[shy storm]

i have got some of the lower cb power 3* but i have to have the best offsets for them to work

[radiant vigil]

don't ever solo try shuckle, it's the only L3 raid that's not soloable

[crude nacelle]

I also don’t like sending gifts from the town I live in, but chances are very very slim for anyone to find out my real name based on that.

Not that I haven’t used my real name in Pokémon before but

I also live in a very small town lol

[charred rapids]

People know where I live, it’s a dead end street with like 15 spawn points about 300m long, been an occasional hundo

It also looks like a penis on the pogo map

[radiant vigil]

you make me curious to see this now

i'm lazy so i tend to send a lot of gifts from the pokestop i live on top of, but i also go allll over the city so i guess no one can really tell which one is the home stop anyway lol

even if someone figures it out, it's an apartment, like a gazillion people live there secured building

[charred rapids]

Is a Willy

[radiant vigil]

omg it is indeed 😂

also your spawn points damn

[charred rapids]

That’s a chill day spotlight hours are pretty lit catching over 16 sitting on my couch

[radiant vigil]

unfortuantely i need to walk down to the shopping centre XD

i can get a lure on the stop on my place, but i'm not right on it so it's not the best

[blissful cairn]

I lost my pogo account rip

[radiant vigil]

if it's via google hopefully you could reset that pw?

[surreal parrot]

Normally it's impossible finding arlo whilst I try hunt a shiny shadow beldum. Now I need cliff and Sierra for the quest and he's the only one that spawns

[charred rapids]

i just realised im busy on gible come day😭😭

[blissful cairn]

I don't remember my old email which bums me out

[radiant vigil]

rng always never considerate of what we need

[blissful cairn]

Well damn I actually remember my email and password for my account xD

[coral lily]

hi

[radiant vigil]

hello

[tight pilot]

Ello

[radiant vigil]

morning to you!

[tight pilot]

Good morning, good evening & good night to you too

[radiant vigil]

technically it's morning cos it's past midnight right?

[steel parcel]

an old man walked up to me and my bf at the park to tell us there was a perfect bagon nearby

[primal sluice]

good day everyone :3

[radiant vigil]

[primal sluice]

XD night night

[radiant vigil]

Tired

Now actually going to sleep lol

[charred rapids]

whats the time for u?

[tight pilot]

I’d guess around 1am or later down under rn? ^

[odd glade]

Can confirm that I got it ^_^

[analog steeple]

Was just posting about this yesterday !!

https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/n7itmu/randomly_got_200000_xp/

[zenith island]

Guess what outfit I just completed? (Minus the hat, those drive me up the wall.)

[analog steeple]

Ooo let’s see

[zenith island]

The only hint is that it’s one from Hoenn.

I finally completed my Team Aqua Uniform! Minus the Bandana and Gloves, those, to me, are the weakest parts of the outfit.

I don’t care what anyone says, I’m sticking with this because Aqua’s my second favorite Evil Team.

[rotund copper]

Here’s my outfit. Litwick Hat, Munna Shirt and Pants, and MewTwo Shoes.

[zenith island]

Anyone who’s played Gen 6 or Episode Rainbow Rocket will immediately know what my absolute favorite is.

[noble acorn]

hrm... well methinks there may be something wrong with swirlix atm

[analog steeple]

Is the pancham thing available yet or nah?

Can’t remember if it starts today or the 11th

[noble acorn]

Tuesday

the 11th

[analog steeple]

Ah thank you both!

[muted kayak]

I hope that soon pancham will not be limited to raids. It's very annoying to collect candies in this way(like the espur situation).

[odd glade]

Unfortunately there will always be Pokemon that are locked behind raids, and Pancham seems to be one if them

[primal sluice]

a nice time to grind some levels XD

[odd glade]

But if you are not farming Xerneas candies just use your daily ticket on pancham, if you pinap every Pancham you catch you will be able to evolve him in 7-8 days

[charred rapids]

The annoying thing about Pancham is you have to evolve it by catching 32 dark types, not the fact it’s locked behind raids

[tight pilot]

Get enough candy to evo by second half of may and it should be fairly easy! (Assuming dark type event with Yveltal)

[charred rapids]

how likely is earth power going to be the com day move for gible?

Meh about a 40% chance, dragon breath the same and then 20% for them to introduce dragon rush into the game.

Anything else would be a complete surprise.

[charred rapids]

watch it be something stupid like iron head

Oh I forgot about how it could be dragon claw, that’s another decent possibility but yeah hopefully it’s not something dumb.

earth power would be sick

[odd glade]

Oh ye, I can see some of us catching like 20+ dark type with a 92-4% pancham as a buddy just to catch a 98% one near the end

[odd glade]

Oh right there will be a dark type event

The 32 dark types thing shouldn't be that terrible then

[primal sluice]

is panchan that good?

[charred rapids]

It will be once the event is over and you get a hundo just as it finishes, imagine

[odd glade]

[analog steeple]

I’ve read in some situations it does better than scrafty

Otherwise it’s on par with it

[primal sluice]

o ok

[primal sluice]

doing the raid once is probably not worth it huh

[analog steeple]

Up to you ! I’m gonna do a few cause I love pancham lol

[primal sluice]

XD i got one pass per week so forme to evolve it is another problem XD

[dire hemlock]

Is shiny galar ponyta released?

[charred rapids]

Not until Tuesday

[primal sluice]

yayyyyyyyyy finally arlo T.T

[rustic nova]

okay so, theoretically i could catch 3 shadow moltres

is it worth? or should i wait for when some other shadow legend comes out

[primal sluice]

so far most people say it isnt worth it but i just like catch them for pokedex

milliiiiiiiiiiiiiiii morning :3

[radiant vigil]

Marill event odds look properly on this time!

[radiant vigil]

You catch me every time 👀

[primal sluice]

dang she be coming in here flexing on us like that T.T

[primal sluice]

nah it just happen that u msg when i check the chat lmaooo

or u can say that is how bored i am T.T

[radiant vigil]

Ahaha you'll get the event when it starts for you too

[primal sluice]

ik ik do u see that 3x xp per catch event?

[primal sluice]

this one

[radiant vigil]

Got another one, definitely boosted this time

[radiant vigil]

No

[primal sluice]

sadly they didnt boost incense for me T.T

[radiant vigil]

Yeah it's 9th may rn haha

[primal sluice]

XD time to pray for a few spawns from here and there XD

[radiant vigil]

[primal sluice]

o and i think marill cp at 197 is hundo so i heard from tik tok

[crude nacelle]

CP 197 Marill from Research is 100%
Best to check https://thesilphroad.com/research-tasks, since that's more trusted than TikTok videos.

[primal sluice]

ty ty :3

[raw pulsar]

I WANT THE PONYTA SO BADD

[radiant vigil]

I have 2 196s lol

[primal sluice]

u know the daily field research? when u finish like 7days of it u will have one

[radiant vigil]

So many 2* shiny

[primal sluice]

[raw pulsar]

ahhhhhhhh

[primal sluice]

it is on just go to ur field research do one of those quest per day and u can fill up those numbers above it and then u can claim the box

[primal sluice]

^

but if u talking abt it being a shiny then i think u have to wait until tuesday for it to be release XD

[crude nacelle]

Catch 15 Fairy-Type Pokémon [Event]
AR Mapping

Those 2 tasks also reward Galarian Ponyta.

[fallen quarry]

is it worth it to AR map?

[crude nacelle]

I personally don't like it, but if you're trying to get a shiny Galarian Ponyta, it's worth it

[fallen quarry]

how many pictures do you need to take?

[crude nacelle]

you basically take a panoramic of the stop

but i'm not sure what it requires

[radiant vigil]

I don't want to feel like a creeper so I never did ar mapping

[crude nacelle]

it's prob worth it for ponyta.
also people just submit photos of whatever

[rustic nova]

197 can also be 98%

[crude nacelle]

15/15/14?

[rustic nova]

During the accidental one I got 14/15/15 I think

I know one of em was 98%

But yeah 197 will either be 98% or 100%

[crude nacelle]

ah just like chansey

[radiant vigil]

Damn so don't get excited if I see 197 not that I have yet lol

[primal sluice]

o well it ez wt it ez :V just get all hype when u get a shundo XD

[crude nacelle]

i've already got a hundo azurill

[radiant vigil]

Lol 4 shiny so far, not close to shundo

[crude nacelle]

but they aren't good for anything tbh, i'm going for the rank 1 GL

[radiant vigil]

Going to see an influx of shiny azumarill in GL I bet

[charred rapids]

Yeah I got a 197, was 15/15/14

Already had two hundo’s though so not a loss

[radiant vigil]

I got 179, close enough just flip it...

[raw pulsar]

Ye

Oh wait yeah
