29th

[steel parcel]

i was wondering why so many trades went lucky today

[radiant vigil]

I got like 2 in 83 trades

[charred rapids]

Oh I mean my lucky friends! I’ve been hunting them down like a bloody psychopath

[radiant vigil]

Oh lol, 7 organic lucky trades is very good haha

I'm hunting luckies too for the remainder of my daily trading limit lol

[charred rapids]

33 lucky friends per account you know I need to ima get some lucky goomy

[radiant vigil]

I finally got my first one

Only have 12 left cos I wiped them out earlier, and half probs have quit / not within 40km lol

[charred rapids]

I should do that but I’m a hoarder

[radiant vigil]

I was determined earlier

[untold breach]

I really need to start playing again I've just been super busy

I was gonna try and make a spreadsheet to track my friends because I'm bad at keeping track and then I just dropped off

[radiant vigil]

I respect anyone using a spreadsheet to track friends cos it's so hard core haha

[charred rapids]

I’m just messaging them all like OI WANNA FRICKIN TRADE

GIMME YA TRADES!

[radiant vigil]

Lol yeah I've sprayed the trade request messages today

[crisp dove]

Do you guys have the special weekend code?

[charred rapids]

No lol

[radiant vigil]

Not in the region for it

[charred rapids]

Australia never gets any events

[radiant vigil]

[charred rapids]

If I did, I wouldn’t give it away

[radiant vigil]

[crisp dove]

HK either

[odd glade]

Aus is Niantic's beta test region

[radiant vigil]

No, that's New Zealand even we have our own beta testers

[steel parcel]

messaged my family to get their codes so if they come through i’d be happy to share with anyone in the ny/nj area 💕

already redeemed mine but i woke up too early and now i’m just waiting in bed for another 5 hours

[radiant vigil]

Go get more sleep

[steep compass]

uh where do I ask for mega raids

[twilit sapphire]

No asking for raids here

We just patiently wait until someone hosts in respective #788495806415241267 / #pogo_raids

[steep compass]

ohhh

thanks

[steel parcel]

what mega are you looking for? i still need to do mega amph for the dex, i can invite you next time if you’d like

[zinc narwhal]

Could you invite me too. I tried by myself yesterday but got killed immediately

[odd glade]

ow oopsy

[steady acorn]

wait @radiant vigil

ur from nsw right

[radiant vigil]

im in sydney

[steady acorn]

WAIT

[radiant vigil]

im pretty sure i'm within 40kms of you, but also dust is gonna hurt with our friendship level haha

[steady acorn]

true

i was thinking about grinding dusting

[radiant vigil]

[steady acorn]

apparently its only 16k

unless u caught a shiny clef

[radiant vigil]

even shinies at best friends is 40k if one person doesn't have it registered XD

[steady acorn]

dam

[radiant vigil]

never caught a shiny clef before

[steady acorn]

rip

man

[radiant vigil]

it's like 1 mil > 800k > 80k > 40k i think from good to best

[steady acorn]

am sad lol

[radiant vigil]

get to best friends, next remote trade event 😉

[steady acorn]

been grinding for shiny eevee the past week :((

praying to get one tmr

[radiant vigil]

oooh gl. i got one on the blood moon day trying to get zig

[steady acorn]

gl

[radiant vigil]

But yeah...plenty spare minus the party hat one lol

[steady acorn]

wish i could take one lmao

[radiant vigil]

stupid dust cost

[steady acorn]

been powering up my hundo gyarados too

[radiant vigil]

L50?

[fluid eagle]

@radiant vigil gimme a eevee!!

[radiant vigil]

[fluid eagle]

ive caught over 100+ last few days

no luck 😦 got 500 candys from like 25

[radiant vigil]

i feel like the people who don't want the eevees are getting them, and those who need them don't

[fluid eagle]

i just want a semi-decent stat one for a purple vapo

[radiant vigil]

ah...i might have shiny eevee, but i can't say they have decent stats

[fluid eagle]

a 2* would be fine with me haha 🙂

[radiant vigil]

Ahh like this one...love the colour

problem was evolving these were a gamble cos i'd already used the nicknames ahah

[fluid eagle]

aint seen a shiny this month tbh

[radiant vigil]

not even comm day??

[fluid eagle]

what was comm day again sorry

[radiant vigil]

swablu

[fluid eagle]

i have shit memory

ow wait sorry i lie i did get a swablu

[radiant vigil]

dw i only remember cos i'm trying to make space and i run into a wall of shiny swablu

[steady acorn]

gible com day is begging for 2763848373829 captures

[radiant vigil]

im very ready...going to go ham in the city for gible hehe

[fluid eagle]

gible comm day is gonna be very nice

[steady acorn]

im ready

[fluid eagle]

shinys just a shade diff though right?

[steady acorn]

to power up my hundo garchomp

[radiant vigil]

i just hope it's not too cold...excellents have been hard in this weather

nah gible is obvious, garchomp is not lol

[steady acorn]

shiny chomp smells bad

[fluid eagle]

i got a 98% garbite so either need a maxed garbite or 98% shiny

[radiant vigil]

mega shiny chomp is amazing though

[steady acorn]

let us pray for the last day of this event

will grind every single eevee raid i see

[fluid eagle]

im only lvl 30 millia so i havent got the spread of pokes for the mega bonus to help with boosting types

[radiant vigil]

you want some spam invites later if i see only?

[steady acorn]

sure

if u just lmk lmao

[fluid eagle]

todays last eevee chance?

[radiant vigil]

we're on sunday, last day for us

[steady acorn]

ya

[radiant vigil]

i will ping then

[steady acorn]

we are the future

[fluid eagle]

ahhh its Saturday for me

[radiant vigil]

and 3x exp i think

[fluid eagle]

your aus?

[steady acorn]

im using lucky egg

[radiant vigil]

ausssss

[steady acorn]

so its 6x big brain

but

[radiant vigil]

it's cold, so i keep missing

[steady acorn]

not really needed to level up anytime soon

[radiant vigil]

i guess if i reallly try, i might make 50 by the end of the year. maybe

[steady acorn]

watch them make a level 60

[radiant vigil]

1 bil exp required

[fluid eagle]

ive been playing nearly 2 months

[steady acorn]

nice

[fluid eagle]

got a nice spread of pokes and lvl 30 aint bad imo 🙂

[steady acorn]

nice

im stuck on level 41 bcs im lazy on leveling up

[radiant vigil]

level 30 lets you power most things up to a useful level anyway

[fluid eagle]

^luckily i do great league so i dont need overpowered pokes

[radiant vigil]

i do great league cos i'm cheap and don't like spending dust

[steady acorn]

i swear ive been catching battle perfect eevees

caught a ultra league ready eevees for unbreon and flareon

[radiant vigil]

hundo eevee = perfect UL umbreon, but you need that at L50

[steady acorn]

lazy

[radiant vigil]

too much dust...and need last resort...

actually need to pvp this season to get to rank 10 sad

[fluid eagle]

im rank 9

i should finish 10 when does season end?

[radiant vigil]

i think the new season starts on monday? i just know current one is ending soon

[steel parcel]

can’t rank up during kanto cup

[radiant vigil]

ah i guess enjoy the pvp without ranking pressures then XD

[steel parcel]

they did my girl korrine dirty taking her wheels away

still want em

[radiant vigil]

there's also regi clothing???

[fluid eagle]

@steel parcel ive been gaining lvls from kanto cup?

maybe it still does too lvl 10?

[charred rapids]

So an Australian YouTuber was able to have access to the Verizon event, that sounds suss as heck

[fluid eagle]

i also could too

if i spoofed

[charred rapids]

Eh spoofing is doody

[fluid eagle]

i dont spoof i just mean that it covers your location so i guess spoofing you could hit the event?

[charred rapids]

No idea 🤷🏻‍♂️ I guess

[clever bison]

If anyone has a darkrai in pogo lmk

[radiant vigil]

zoetwodots?

[charred rapids]

Can’t trade darkrai it’s mythical

[charred rapids]

Proplanty

[radiant vigil]

hmm interesting... and they're in australia rn???

[charred rapids]

Yeah south Australia I’m pretty sure he’s located.

[radiant vigil]

interesting how he got it working, cos i've seen people on reddit try and they didn't get it working

[charred rapids]

I’m not watching it but the title of his vid is “completing U.S exclusive special weekend (Verizon) timed research in Australia”.

[radiant vigil]

yeah found it, he says he just put in the code and it worked

if it was that simple though, reddit would've already gone ham on it

[charred rapids]

I feel like it’s because he’s a poketuber, Niantic probably let it slide

[radiant vigil]

oh definitely, the pogo youtubers definitely get a pass for these sorts of thing

but he's not one of the bigger ones though, hence why i thought it was zoe first

[charred rapids]

Yeah they definitely do, since they’re basically the advertisement

Yeah not a lot of people heard of Planty.

[radiant vigil]

i appreciate that some of them actually call out niantic though, i swear trainer tips is prretty done with them sometimes

[rotund copper]

...I forgot about that...

welp, there goes that ticket

[radiant vigil]

i suspect it's going off local time, in which case australia is a good 10-14 hours ahead of the us

so i think yours should be ok

[rotund copper]

It’s the 21st though, wasn’t it?

[radiant vigil]

pretty sure this weekend, as the global bonuses are live this weekend i.e. 40km trading distance, 60 gifts to open

[rotund copper]

Oh, I really hope so. It’s annoying how PoGo never gives notifications for the Verizon events

Only got 30 mins of the last Verizon event because there wasn’t a notification for it

[radiant vigil]

i got the notification for it, and i can't even do the event but they pop when they feel like

[rotund copper]

[radiant vigil]

But ends Sunday midnight

[rotund copper]

Huh, I stand corrected

I blame pogo

[radiant vigil]

that is misleading

i guess if you're used to mm/dd that's 21st may haha

[rotund copper]

Yeah

Murica

[radiant vigil]

it annoys me that the dates on the mons are mm/dd because i always read it as dd/mm

[rotund copper]

[radiant vigil]

fine if it's 12/31, but not 11/5

[rotund copper]

Or 5/5

Oh wait that’s the same thing either way

[radiant vigil]

that one ok, 5th may no matter

[rotund copper]

Wait so I suck at time
Does it start on the 29th or the 30th?

[radiant vigil]

saturday apparently, but you've got 48 hours for it it seems

[rotund copper]

So it’s currently ongoing? 11am, Saturday

[radiant vigil]

assume so? XD might be a special research or something for you

[rotund copper]

Well I’ll use an incense, only one way to find out.

Oh never mind

[radiant vigil]

i guess if someone else here has the event, they can verify. all i can say is that 40km trading works

ez

[charred rapids]

Bruh yeah if it really does work, I’m kinda mad I didn’t beg for a code that wouldn’t of been given to me anyway

But I would of tried

[radiant vigil]

https://reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/nnaeue/verizon_event_ticket_works_from_india/

Well I should've stalked reddit earlier today instead of watching anime all day

Even the verizon sub reddit has a thread for this lol. Looks like niantic said it was going to be geolocked, but turns out it wasn't

[charred rapids]

Wow they really did well huh

[radiant vigil]

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of verified 'unown caught in non event location' posts on TSR

Oh well 🤣 I haven't adjusted to excellent throws in this cold weather yet, wouldn't be able to maximise that 4x exp anyway

[charred rapids]

That’s bull wow, we could have been apart of this

[radiant vigil]

Why did we think niantic was good enough at programming a geo block on this?

[charred rapids]

Because they’ve done it before, this is one of their first failed Verizon events, but they did screw the pooch on the kanto event and the kanto makeup event so

[radiant vigil]

That kanto wasn't a make up

[charred rapids]

You mean where we were given a couple free items we still had to do research for? Yeah you’re right

Was still a chore everyone got in the end anyway

[steel parcel]

3 unown in 20 minutes, not bad

[fluid eagle]

aye got a 1* hatching in 50 mins

anyone want me to keep posted on a zig?

@charred rapids did you get yours after?

[charred rapids]

I ended up with 3, out of passes and haven’t bought more since I probably should soon.

[fluid eagle]

itd be nice to have a shiny zig but id much rather a eevee

[charred rapids]

Seems everyone wants eevee

[radiant vigil]

Except us

[charred rapids]

I’m sick of it

[pulsar thunder]

Is this worth evolving to dragonite?

[radiant vigil]

Oooo

[pulsar thunder]

I already have two dragonites and I’m pretty sure I have two more days to remove frustration

[analog steeple]

Please help my towns been overrun

[flint wind]

at least you didnt have two sierras next to each other

6 feet grunts

[analog steeple]

Grunts in a bubble together lol

[steel parcel]

they look like they’re about to drop their new mixtape

evil don’t believe in social distancing

[lusty spoke]

the regis are backkk ?

[analog steeple]

Yup! Curious what the surprise raid boss will be. Hoping regigas

However it’s spelled

[rotund copper]

Regigigigigas

[steel parcel]

regigiggity

[rotund copper]

What if the two unknown ones are Eleki and Draco

[lusty spoke]

Regigigigigigigigigigigas

[analog steeple]

Think you’re missing some gigigigigig on that

[rotund copper]

Regas

[twilit sapphire]

Smol

[flint wind]

[fluid eagle]

im so pleased with next months regi's raids

love all the regi pokes hope them special raids are draco and eleki

[rotund copper]

What form is that? I thought it was Z, but now I’m not so sure.

Since this is Z

[odd glade]

It's S but it was like spinning

[fluid eagle]

are the ? and ! unkowns real?

[vestal hollow]

just found my first unown

[odd glade]

ofc

[fluid eagle]

i have never seen either of them unknowns till now

[odd glade]

Idk if they got released in PoGo but you can find them in the mainline games

They are usually the last unowns to be found , expect in ORAS i think

[fluid eagle]

i think they look great i love the lil eyelids

i want em both

[vestal hollow]

ooo got a deino

almost a hundo but not quite

an almost hundo eevee too this game is teasing me today

[steel parcel]

while rad i doubt niantic’ll skip all the way to gen 8 lol

[fluid eagle]

i would argue 1 point to that though

they have been releasing galarian forms of pokes that are already out right or isit gen 7 @steel parcel

plus galarian slowpoke is coming out with the regis

[steel parcel]

galarian forms of kanto pokes, yes, but no new galarians

[vestal hollow]

teeny

[twilit sapphire]

it's an S

[steel parcel]

xp bonus is going until the 30th, right?

[analog steeple]

Whoa! Do you have the ticket or something ? Or an egg on?

I can only hit 3,000 on an excellent

[rotund copper]

Well it’s 4x catch experience during the Verizon event

[flint wind]

you have more spawns there than my whoole neighborhood does

[analog steeple]

That’s why I asked if they had a ticket. Us non verizon plebs are stuck with nothing

[rotund copper]

Yeah. I’ve seen 3x before, but never 4x

I’ve only been seeing Unown V, is Unown S just rarer or am I unlucky?

[twilit sapphire]

70k big oofs

[rotund copper]

Holy

[flint wind]

In ar mode too

[vestal hollow]

the type of unown you get is dependent on your ticket. if you're playing the Verizon event you will only encounter unown V

[twilit sapphire]

7-11 side are unown S

[vestal hollow]

yup

[steel parcel]

i checked my unown dex and realized i already had unown v from a trade but i went hard on incense anyway and now i have 28

why do i do small brain things

[twilit sapphire]

I don't really have many unown letters

[stuck schooner]

Do you power up shadow Pokémon then purify or just purify

[pulsar thunder]

Don't purify lol

Unless it's for tasks

[analog steeple]

Shadow mons have a 20% attack bonus so usually you’ll be told not to purify

If you plan to purify anything though I think it’s cheaper to purify first then power up

[stuck schooner]

I am purifying my moltres because I would rather have a 2400 cp one then a 700 one

[pulsar thunder]

don't do it

shadow moltres is pretty rare

[flint wind]

yea purified mons get you funny looks and they aint as good (or cool) as shadows

[twilit sapphire]

And legendaries rotate often enough for you to get a better one

[rotund copper]

Ohh I see. Thanks

[crisp relic]

Paimon has given 1 'General Rep' to tramz.

[rotund copper]

My Unown dex is coming along pretty nicely.

[radiant vigil]

104 unown seen?!

[charred rapids]

You haven’t seen 104 unown Milli?

[radiant vigil]

Haven't done go fest before lol

I'm weak

[charred rapids]

I’ve been to one, they were also in raids for a bit which is where I assume you got most of ya seen from

[twilit sapphire]

i only have 129 seen

[west marsh]

I traded a lot to get my unown dex almost completed. Just need to find a way to get the other two

Hoping to get shiny G&F this year at Go Fest

[radiant vigil]

Wow that's a verrrry nice collection

[warm dagger]

i got a galarian ponyta in pogo

i didnt even know it was in the game

[charred rapids]

[radiant vigil]

It can be shiny

[warm dagger]

i checked tabs i dont have any

[steel parcel]

are unown ? and ! rarer than shiny buizel? someone local is asking to trade and i’m not sure if it’s out of line to ask for either of those

[steady acorn]

i mean

? and ! were event exclusives

could return in future events who knows

[steel parcel]

ah ok. probably will ask for a comm day shiny i wasn't around for then

[fluid eagle]

i want ? ! aswell tbh qt 🙂

[radiant vigil]

i feel like if someone has ? and ! they'd had a lot of it, and I think shiny buizel is pretty rare

[steel parcel]

that’s probably true... i only have the 1 shiny, but i also wasn’t hunting for it at the time

[radiant vigil]

I'm mainly basing this off how often I see shiny buizel / floatzel in gyms, which is like twice 🤣 I would say I click on a fair amount of gyms checking for raids / free spots

Shiny hydreigon pops up more, but also because yeah flex mon

[unique hazel]

I only have 2 kinds of Unowns, G and O, while I have 1 shiny Unown being G 😦

[steel parcel]

imho this is the best nickname for shiny unown o

[flint wind]

perfection

[primal sluice]

[flint wind]

i somehow made a budget team that works rlly well

[analog steeple]

What’s the budget team @flint wind?

[flint wind]

[tight pilot]

@flint wind sent

[flint wind]

ok poppin the lucky egg rn

oki got da gift

[lucid frigate]

Ive been running focus blast gengar as spice in the kanto cup, and miraculously baited a shield from a wigglytuff with shadow punch and they no shielded the focus blast

[radiant vigil]

very satisfying

[analog steeple]

Gengar in this cup is spicy I love it

[fluid eagle]

ive been using vaporeon - wigglytuff - lapras

and its doing really well tbh

[analog steeple]

Been getting murdered no matter what I use

Finally got an alolan muk so gonna run that

[fluid eagle]

alolan muk is surprisingly good for kanto

also alolan marowak and ninetales aint doing bad

[radiant vigil]

Alolan mons allowed in kanto cup?

[fluid eagle]

@radiant vigil yeah and their smashing hahaha

[flint wind]

had to use kanga to wall maro
now i laugh as maro does literally nothing to kanga

[radiant vigil]

Kanga is a good thicc one 🦘

[fluid eagle]

my wigglytuff does well against kanga and my vaporean/lapras beats the alot of main used

[flint wind]

im running alola sandlslash kanga hypno

[fluid eagle]

i was using sandslash its so good

[flint wind]

as you can guess people switch into a maro when they see my start and kanga goes and farms up 2 outrages

[fluid eagle]

but trying to get ice punch charge i ahd gyro ball so just holding it for now

[flint wind]

im runnin gyro balls because fairies annoying af

[fluid eagle]

wiggly good wall for fairys

rn praying for 2 mil xp on my main T.T

[tight pilot]

“Power up 3 pokemon to their max cp” eek that means level 50 doesnt it

[radiant vigil]

yes

[steel parcel]

time to grind for those lucky hundos

[radiant vigil]

this is when comm day grind gets reallllly fun

[tight pilot]

Mehh more-so like time to use that XL candy from previous comdays

I have more than enough XL’s for machop/Snivy, etc, so could do one now just suchhh a waste of dust

[radiant vigil]

which is good haha, i had to wait for comm days to come to do em XD

[charred rapids]

Ooooo yeah I remember when that was a struggle, you whippersnappers have it easy

[radiant vigil]

A lot of people hit 47 after fletchling com day cos we were all waiting

[tight pilot]

Anyone know if this one HAS to be a three star raid or will it work with 5* raids too? Lol

[radiant vigil]

any works

oh right, that's 3 star

got the quests confused with the unique one haha

easiest way is to take it down low with a hard core team, then swap it

[tight pilot]

Ahh ripp, guess i’ll be wasting my time on a 3* raid at somepoint lol but ouu thats smart, i was just gonna go in with a lobby of 10 randoms and let them do thecwork for me

[radiant vigil]

also don't be like me and try this on something like miltank i was an idiot

[tight pilot]

LOL wayy too tanky for that, was gonna probs take a galar weezing bc i forgot i still need it for dex theoretically but think they out of raids now

[radiant vigil]

if you can, pick something with a double weakness so it's way easier XD yeah obviously i did not do it with a miltank, i realised even going all out with a proper team solo is tight

[charred rapids]

I just neeeeeeeed XP

[radiant vigil]

yeahhh, racing to 49 time

hopefully can hit that 20 mil into 48 on gible day XD

[charred rapids]

Eh I’m back at work, it’s a slow crawl for me

[radiant vigil]

we don't have 3x catch anyway, so waiting until sunday now

[charred rapids]

We still have xp catch until tomorrow morning

[radiant vigil]

nah it's gone, anything after 8 is normal exp

cos i hit an excellent right at 8, only 1k exp

[charred rapids]

Oh man I’ve been out of the loop I should of taken advantage of it on the weekend

[radiant vigil]

btw for research breakthrough tomorrow, do i gamble on galar pony shiny chance or just get the remote pass? haha

[charred rapids]

You have a chance on go fest for shiny pony, issue is if it will evolve due to a costume

[radiant vigil]

yeah probs better to get the pass then XD hopefully no stinky shiny clamperl

[charred rapids]

Don’t forget to star piece your pvp rewards

Tomorrow

[radiant vigil]

uh...i don't think my pvp rewards are worth star piecing but it is a reminder that i need to start grinding for rank 10

i assume i'll hit 49 at least during this season lol

[charred rapids]

150k for anyone ace and above I couldn’t resist

[radiant vigil]

ah that's not bad

[charred rapids]

But yeah same hopefully

[radiant vigil]

you're a few mil ahead, should be fine XD

[charred rapids]

Work is going to be full on though, 6 days a week for the next couple weeks, I also walk everywhere for Pokémon

[radiant vigil]

i didn't check pogo much today either, actually working rippp

[charred rapids]

Also Milli

[radiant vigil]

yeah true, no need to sacrifice pass for it 😄

[charred rapids]

That’s a solid amount of time too, ima try and go ham on the eggs

[radiant vigil]

i need to remember to leave space for them XD

[charred rapids]

Yeeeee do it

It will suck but I’m going to attempt to hatch a batch a day after work, off the boots and on the flip flops first thing

[primal sluice]

@steel parcel the 3x xp per catch is still on for us right?

[steel parcel]

yea

bye bye 5k xp per excellent

[tight pilot]

10h 50min left for us

Wishhhhh, i never got verizon or 7/11 bonus event stuff up here in canada

[primal sluice]

both my alt hit LV 36

@radiant vigil 300k xp short T.T

[radiant vigil]

[primal sluice]

atm 30k more now sacrificing a incense for it

[radiant vigil]

[fluid eagle]

@primal sluice w

would a meltan box be better since they regen?

[primal sluice]

idk what is a meltan box and i dont think i have one

[radiant vigil]

you can't get one without home :/

[primal sluice]

@steel parcel @tight pilot i fainlly HIT ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

level 38 T.T

[steel parcel]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-jump-jumping-happy-excited-gif-4768603

[primal sluice]

time to request after my incense thou

[radiant vigil]

time to nominate pokestops

[primal sluice]

LMAO

i hope it go through before gible CD

[radiant vigil]

i doubt it XD it takes months for me without upgrades, fast is like a week haha

first thing you should do when you submit though, check what your sub looks like on https://wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/

wayfarer+ add on is also good cos you can see how your nomination looks like to other people

[fluid eagle]

@primal sluice if you hook your pogo to poke home you can get a meltan box which you can restore every 3 days i think

its how you get this :

[primal sluice]

i dont have pogo home T.T

[fluid eagle]

you can get it on your phone and its ezpz to setup/use

[primal sluice]

i mean it isnt in my applestore

[fluid eagle]

thats strange i think you can get it from their website also might be worth a look when you got some free time to be sure

[primal sluice]

imma check on the details in next 40 min after my incense and then imma check on what is there needing to be done

[fluid eagle]

its effectively a freeby incense and its a decent poke

[radiant vigil]

yeah we tried looking before, looks like it's just not available in his country 😦

[fluid eagle]

whats ur country d3v?

[primal sluice]

guyana

a small country in south america

[fluid eagle]

weird

i think mexico has it so weird other south americas dont insta have

[radiant vigil]

mexico is a pretty big country though XD they get pogo events!

[primal sluice]

ikr 😦

[radiant vigil]

i guess guyana is so small it might not matter where i put my wayfarer bonus location, i might end up reviewing in other countries nearby HAHA

[primal sluice]

XD

[primal sluice]

@tight pilot lemme know when u can link me up with 2 legendary raids just realize i need 2 for my alts T.T

[tight pilot]

Ooop yeah sorry i was away all weekend! Will be back home in like an hour can probs hook you up then but gathering interest may be difficult

[primal sluice]

XD lets hope we have enough atleast to carry my alt to defeat it XD

[tight pilot]

We’ll get er done for ya

[tight pilot]

Annnnd i get home to nothing but 1/3* raids i’ll keep my eye open all afternoon/night for ya tho

Ahh see i just needed to complain, one hatching in 59 mins now

[primal sluice]

nice nice XD ill be rdy whenever it hatches XD

[tight pilot]

Use your yellow acct first bc this gym is Yellow lool

[primal sluice]

aight good good

[lucid frigate]

Reminder to anyone who plays gbl to put a star piece before you collect your end of season rewards for that sweet extra dust

[charred rapids]

how many gibles spawn on incense? over 6 hours

like how often do they spawn on incense

[fluid eagle]

@lucid frigate when does the season end?

[charred rapids]

in 1 hour

[fluid eagle]

for gl/ul and such?

[charred rapids]

ye

[fluid eagle]

only hit 12-13

[charred rapids]

i only hit 16

i think its 100k stardust for rank 20?

[fluid eagle]

this is my first season finish so no clue

do you only get star dust?

[charred rapids]

if u get rank 20 u get elite tms

i cant remember what else

[vestal hollow]

haven't gotten a shiny Eevee at all but I want to evolve this one, any idea on what eeveelution to choose (using the naming trick)

[fluid eagle]

vaporeon/umbreon are decent for gl depends what your looking to use it on

[tight pilot]

Save your name tricks for shinys / level 41 requirements! That would also make a good Umbreon for UL (only one ranking higher would be a perfect ofc) for once you hit level 40 and can XL candy it! (Thinking of the future as i always do for pogo lol) but umbreon would also be an easy just walk 10km then evo it at night!

And for the time being could keep it as a umbreon for great league too

[fluid eagle]

vapo is decent also though mellow with aqua tail and bubble for speed 🙂

only downside to vapo is it can either be flare/jolt/vapo from just clicking evolve

[tight pilot]

Yeah the randomness is never fun but even worse for shinys so def save your name tricks for those three for shiny ones! Vaporeon is decent for sure and just a good tanky water type (but there are better ones) and isnt all that hot in any of the leagues tbh being out-ranked often by any of the water starters with access to cday move hydro cannon

[fluid eagle]

@tight pilot currently with kanto cup im running vapo - wigglytuff - lapras

consistent 4/5 - 5/5 rounds 🙂

[tight pilot]

Ahh i havent been playing any kanto cup tbh but nice what rank? Wigglytuff / lapras are monsters ! Hypno would be a good addition in there for ya too or a haunter

Poliwrath good option too

[fluid eagle]

i tried a gengar but he wasnt consistent enough and lapras with surf op

im closing in on candy for a near max shadow poli i got

[tight pilot]

Yeah oddly enough Haunter is better in great league than Gengar

[fluid eagle]

really?

ill defo look into thyat

[tight pilot]

Yessir always has been, kinda like Ivysaur beats out Venusaur in great league, super weirdd

And ouu Politoed is a menace in great league you’ll have fun with that and its spammy weather ball

[fluid eagle]

tbh im super excited for the month coming

i want a shell arm slowbro and a shinny regi

[tight pilot]

Good luck!! I hope you get your shiny regis!

[vestal hollow]

i missed getting shiny Regis on swsh (not like I would have done much with them anyways lol) so I'm glad that they're coming back to pogo where maybe I'll be tempted to use them

[fluid eagle]

i dm getting thew shinys on pogo since less work

[tight pilot]

Tbh waaaaay easier to get in Pogo, especially if you’re willing to spend a little money on remote passes / do local raids if you can for free when you can

[fluid eagle]

only shiny on sword regi wise i was tempted for was eleki but its only bands different colour

[lucid frigate]

One thing gengar has that haunter doesn’t is focus blast

[vestal hollow]

yeah it does seem way easier on pogo for shiny legends especially. haven't been tempted to spend money on passes yet but I might be if it means I can get the regis

[tight pilot]

Yeah i mean its never a guarantee of course like i got shiny Tornadus in less than 5 raids, meanwhile did over 70 to get Rayquaza

[lucid frigate]

End of season dust

[tight pilot]

Stonks

[subtle bough]

That’s a lot of stardust

[lucid frigate]

Ok so it turns out they fixed end of season dust, now you can only get base 100k dust from legend rank

[subtle bough]

[analog steeple]

Yeah I got 82k with star piece for ace :/

[primal sluice]

i forgot to activate mine T.T

[steel parcel]

is it worth running flash cannon on bastiodon to deal with all these charmers from kc?

[tight pilot]

I think stone edge mangles most fairy types if they dont shield and is less energy (?) not positive tho!

[steel parcel]

nvm i needed flamethrower for jirachi, answered my own q

every time i think i should swap one move for another it ends up coming in clutch

[tight pilot]

Stone edge + flame

[lucid frigate]

Charmers deal pretty much no damage to bastiodon, so not very necessary imo

Resisting charm is its main advantage

[primal sluice]

what is the best move on umbreon in great league?

[analog steeple]

Last resort

[tight pilot]

I run snarl w/ last resort + foul play

[analog steeple]

That’s the ideal moveset if you can splurge on a second move ^

[primal sluice]

imma stick on foul play atm

not enough candy for second charge XD

preparing my alt for GBL too :3

[tight pilot]

Last resort is cday move too

[primal sluice]

so far im running umbreon altaria

what is another pokemon good to use?

[tight pilot]

Azu you should have

I pref ice beam + dazzling gleam but i see ice beam + hydro pump often too

[primal sluice]

not a good one but aye is alt imma just yeet one in XD

[tight pilot]

F it, it works

[primal sluice]

hahahaa rn my alt running 2 shiny XD

[primal sluice]

what should i go with fast move?

[tight pilot]

Bubble

[primal sluice]

aight time to grind to level 20 so i get the chance to get legendary as encounter XD

[primal sluice]

wt to use as lead?

[analog steeple]

Just a heads up that team is pretty weak to abomasnow

[tight pilot]

Yeah and your only hope against charmers is azu as a tie up match up so thats tough idk id say lead azu but also need azu in the back for after theyve burnt their shields lol

[primal sluice]

imma run altaria lead

if it dosent go well too much imma leave umbreon lead

[tight pilot]

Yeah probs for the best to build some energy, if they have hard counter insta switch

[analog steeple]

Umbreon is a beauty for a safe swap

[primal sluice]

yea i figured just wanna grind for some stardust and try to get to rank 20

[tight pilot]

Umbreon is suuuuuper tanky which is nice

[analog steeple]

Shouldn’t be too bad. Got to seven today

[tight pilot]

You’ll get to rank 20 eventually for sure! Its just amount of wins then turns into a rank but like rank is always in the background

[tight pilot]

Cho you’re supposed to be on Vacation slowdownnn

[analog steeple]

Vacation is temporary, hitting Legend is forever

[primal sluice]

idk but my comp is working decent for now XD

[west marsh]

Out of curiosity does anyone know how the game system picks certain mon for raids? Like for Zigs it always suggests machamps. Makes sense. But why doesn’t it put my perfects fist? And usually it’s my lowest IV one.

Sometimes it’ll put the perfect but not often. I just find it weird how it changes all the time lol.

[analog steeple]

I always thought it was by CP tbh

[tight pilot]

Oh that preset random team is usually a messssss hahah i hate when i go in with that, i think it prioritzes attack stat over cp for some dumb reason but only like to a certain extent if that makes sense

Of course choosing type effectiveness above all first criteria

Oh and based heavily on resistances too essentially to keep you in the raid longest

[west marsh]

See I have 6 maxed machamps from when ttar was only duoable. So I think it’s weird to see my 96%’s in front of my perfects lol. Cause they are all level 40 haha. I always set teams normally for the harder bosses. Never set it for 1’s

[tight pilot]

Bc the game knows what the move that the raid boss has is so that usually switches it up

[west marsh]

I just wondered if there was a system or it’s just random lol

Would make sense if they weren’t all sharing the same moves 👀

Game is funny to me sometimes lol.

[tight pilot]

Yeah idk niantic is a little rote sometimes tho but yeah like for registeel it’ll change heavily weather it has focus blast or flash cannon or whatever for example coming up

[west marsh]

That makes sense there haha.

[primal sluice]

wait did they change the GBL encounter?

[west marsh]

Yes

[primal sluice]

i just find a machamp

[west marsh]

I think the first guaranteed is machamp and then rank 5 is mienfoo

[primal sluice]

o ok

[west marsh]

Means I’ll have to get to rank 5 lol

[analog steeple]

They moved some of the encounter pool stuff around

[fluid ice]

so I finally figured out how remote raids work. turns out there's still a max range on them

[analog steeple]

For remote raids?

I find that surprising. I’ve done a raid from California to New Zealand

[fluid ice]

did you do it with a code?

[analog steeple]

Nope

[fluid ice]

dafuq

must be because I have a shitty old phone, I can't even scan stops

[analog steeple]

What’s the phone ?

[tight pilot]

Kill the app and re-load in, its probably just the glitch that happens sometimes saying you need to move closer to the raid

[fluid ice]

LG Stylo v2?

Hang on, trivia started, I'll get back to you

[fluid ice]

LG Stylo 2 V @analog steeple

[tight pilot]

@flint flint you cool if I save till comday (this sunday) for best friend xp? I’ll be doing a few others from discord that day already too

[flint flint]

No worries @tight pilot

[tight pilot]

Just make sure to pop a lucky egg first thing when you open app at 11am

[flint flint]

Sounds good! Thanks

[primal sluice]

did the wild spawn change or eevee is still in it ?

[rustic nova]

it has changed in most time zones

[tight pilot]

Yeah it would have swapped over to normal spawns @ 8pm for you

[rustic nova]

although at this point, "normal" spawns are around so little that they arent that normal anymore lol

[primal sluice]

rip T.T guess i didnt plan things better this time T.T

[steel parcel]

yeah, i encountered a chansey in between events. it was wild

[rustic nova]

honestly kinda wish we got normal spawns a bit more tbh

it seems like whenever there isnt an event going i get a lot of magnemite spawns, and i really want more shiny magnemites

[steel parcel]

i thought it was my buddy chansey at first. i haven’t seen a chansey since the easter event

[primal sluice]

is it good for UL?

[steel parcel]

non event spawns can be wilder than event spawns sometimes

[tight pilot]

My normal spawns consist of Bidoof, Patrat, Hoppip and other straight trashhh

[primal sluice]

i think i got a good one for UL or GL i cant rem

[steel parcel]

chansey? no way. but it was fun during kanto cup

[rustic nova]

chansey and blissey are only really good for gym defense

[tight pilot]

Chansey (/ blissey) is your resident gym defender

[steel parcel]

its max cp is under 1500, so even with 420+ hp it’s not gonna be good for ultra

i did win about 80% of my matches with chansey lead but they just took way too long

[analog steeple]

I’ve finally switched to the dark side and use azumarill and my god my matches are like minimum 3 minutes

Azu, tropius, Gfisk. The all beefy bois

[steel parcel]

i might give my tropius another spin once i climb out of this spice mix

ran into some real funky teams today and learned the hard way that dunsparce knows drill run

[analog steeple]

Oof. Been getting a lot of nidoqueens funny enough

Folks trying out the new toys

[radiant vigil]

what level are you hard core guys at? need to know when it's safe for the plebs to start

[steel parcel]

first and probably last time i’ll see metagross in gl

[analog steeple]

I’m at 7 so I imagine QT is at 9

[steel parcel]

lol i don’t think that’s possible

[radiant vigil]

I guess tomorrow will be safe

[steel parcel]

just give it a try! you’ll have fun either way

[lucid frigate]

Think mostly everyone is at ranks 7/8 for the most part

[radiant vigil]

If I enjoyed it I'd be playing a lot more before haha

[steel parcel]

i forgot how nice it is not seeing your elo go up/down with every set

[tight pilot]

Yeah you’re safe Milli, played a few rounds and lost 1 out of like 13 battles

[radiant vigil]

Only ones I kinda find fun are spicy stuff like love cup and all

[lucid frigate]

Nidoqueen is so fun to use been running it like hypno double dark but nidoqueen instead of hypno

[analog steeple]

Nidoqueen looks like a blast! Forgot how much I enjoy climbing ranks and seeing what folks put together

[radiant vigil]

Not sure what to build...i'm a lazy bum who always used azu + altaria but never know what to use 3rd

i just run cress for shits and giggles mainly, but I think there's probs something more fun out there

[analog steeple]

Cress and her tank are the bane of my existence

[radiant vigil]

I don't run double moves on this though, so usually I complain it is too slow

But everything else I tried 3rd dies fast so I kept cress cos doesn't die too bad lol

[primal sluice]

yep i dont think this meta is for me XD im losing too much on my main XD

[tight pilot]

Try a fast move dominant team to try and speed things up, can sometimes make it less boring

[steel parcel]

i don’t think there’s a meta this far down in the ranks lol

[lucid frigate]

Im seeing so many azu and altaria

But thats a given

[steel parcel]

i’ve seen a few azu, no altaria

[radiant vigil]

From memory wins only matter after rank 5? before that it's like you battle and go up any way? XD

[rustic nova]

when i used to do a lot of pvp i ran charizard machamp rampardos in GL

[steel parcel]

i usually see at most 2 meta mons a team and then a spicy 3rd

[surreal violet]

I'm waiting until I claim the research breakthrough box after 1pm PDT/8pm BST to then claim the GBL rewards. Don't wanna waste starpiece when I can stack.

[lucid frigate]

Wait since gl remix is coming back and most of the fighting types are banned

[surreal violet]

This way I get 5 remote passes too

[steel parcel]

nooooo not my medicham

[lucid frigate]

That means shadow magnezone gets another chance to shine

[surreal violet]

Bru medicham too good

[analog steeple]

Had someone pull out ol’ reliable medi/basti/sableye at fricking rank 3

[steel parcel]

ahaha that’s my team

only seen one other mirror team

[analog steeple]

Bahaha

Faced 2. Got one and lost to the other

[steel parcel]

idk even how they lost, pretty sure their sableye was a higher rank than mine

[radiant vigil]

skillz

[lucid frigate]

Also its looking like ducklett is elemental cup bronzor

[steel parcel]

sweeeeet. i love that lil ducky

[analog steeple]

I saw ducklett and one other I’m blanking on

[lucid frigate]

Whats also very nice is the mirror match not taking 10,000 years to finish

[analog steeple]

Cottonee

[steel parcel]

both cuties! would they work on a team together?

[analog steeple]

Oooo 👀

[steel parcel]

ducklett/cottonee rate ABAB on pvpoke

also why does ducklett destroy everything omg

[primal sluice]

so many umbreon T.T

[lucid frigate]

~~me over here running umbreon ~~

[primal sluice]

me trying to get a good eevee on my main to get a good umbreon but all trash T.T

[low cloud]

anyone know the shiny odds for the regis coming to the T5 raids? (from what i have read there is a chance but it doesnt seem to be boosted)

[final tulip]

i think it's the standard 1/20 odds for all the legend raids

[low cloud]

ah ty!

[analog steeple]

Standard 1/20 yeah

[late sparrow]

Pog

[fluid ice]

lost my first 4 battles of the new season 😦

[radiant vigil]

ran into rather meta teams right at rank 1 XD might wait it out a bit longer, azu vs azu takes foreverrrr

[stark narwhal]

I swear I didn’t know there’s limited research today smh

[sturdy kraken]

Hey guys, I need 1 more for mega lopunny, anyone want in?

[charred rapids]

when does the com day ticket drop?

[tight pilot]

Usually friday night/saturday ish (if on Sunday like the upcoming one)

[fallen quarry]

im glad that the event is over, now i wont only get snubulls and jigglypuffs everywhere

[analog steeple]

I was in Hawaii and got very few corsola cause the event spawns were taking over local stuff lol

Was pretty annoyed. Had to walk around after the event ended to get normal spawns

[fallen quarry]

yeah i definitely got sick of the same 3 pokemon everywhere, especially since they only had dark type for a little bit

[zinc narwhal]

What is com day and what are the tickets

[analog steeple]

Comm day is short for community day and focuses on one Pokémon usually with a shiny release or mega or something special about it

This weekend is Gible and the tickets are optional additional research tasks that give more items/candies/etc etc

Value is subjective but I usually have a great comm day without buying a ticket

@zinc narwhal feel free to ask questions in here. Nice group of folks

[zinc narwhal]

Ok thanks

[analog steeple]

But yeah you can raid as much as your wallet allows

Silly question - are rocket balloons back to every 6 hours?

[twilit sapphire]

they should be. yeh

[west marsh]

Good to know! I kept refreshing my game at 4pm and was wondering why I didn’t see any haha. Thanks for replying!

[primal sluice]

XD just had a mirror match up on umbreon and time run out :V

[primal sluice]

@steel parcel would a shadow kingdra do good with umbreon and ataria?

[steel parcel]

triple weak to fairy dude

azu is everywhere, i wouldn’t swing it

[primal sluice]

o ok

[analog steeple]

[twilit sapphire]

kekhands too

[rotund copper]

My mom’s had a Shiny Pidgeot for a couple months now...

...today she just caught her first Pidgey

[lucid frigate]

Wait what

Was it from a mega raid or something

[fallen quarry]

:0

aquafresh

should i nickname him toothpaste or aquafresh

[steel parcel]

aquafresh

i named mine sheen simmons

[fallen quarry]

whom is sheen simmons?

WAIT

gene simmons???

[steel parcel]

yea

[ivory halo]

I don't know

[steel parcel]

lead vocalist and bassist of kiss!!

[ivory halo]

Oh, this guy?

[steel parcel]

ykno, bc

[ivory halo]

Ah I see

[steel parcel]

and unlike the guy who got kadabra cancelled, gene simmons has been v cool about this particular homage

[ivory halo]

Oh cool

[analog steeple]

Read about that guy! What an ass

[ivory halo]

I'll change up my profile pic

[steel parcel]

i watched the entire video where he gets called out for not actually having psychic powers. so cringey yet so satisfying

[ivory halo]

Ta daaa!

[fallen quarry]

ohhh thats great, also ive never heard of this guy who cancelled kadabra? what happened?

[pulsar thunder]

a magician had the trademark/rights for the phrase Kadabra so Pokemon/GF couldn't release promo/items with Kadabra

Deeper dive, it was actually his "likeness" which is weird lol here's some reading if you're interested https://www.polygon.com/2020/11/30/21726492/pokemon-nintendo-lawsuit-uri-geller-kadabra-apology

[fallen quarry]

kind of reminds me like how in english localization they had to change all the names of the stands and some of the characters in jjba

[primal sluice]

@steel parcel is it good to take a hundo grundbull into GL? this is for my other alt XD

[steel parcel]

errrr maybe? charm can do some major damage, but hundo means you can’t power it up as much

i’d try and see how it goes

[analog steeple]

I whooped a triple charm team today. Felt good

[primal sluice]

i was planning on running another identical team as my other alt (altaria azu and umbreon

but i dont have enough candy for altaria XD

so swapping it with something else

[analog steeple]

Gotta watch out for charmers. Lotta peeps running charmers on my climb today

[primal sluice]

this feeling feels so good tbh T.T

[steel parcel]

[analog steeple]

Qt

[primal sluice]

aye now ccommons day was 6 hours i could only slide 2 acc in not the last one T.T

[twilit sapphire]

my dude, old comms day lasted 3 hours max

[steel parcel]

ah this is your alt. i would run a different team then, swap altaria for something else

[primal sluice]

what charge do i run on grundbull?

[steel parcel]

pvpoke recommends close combat and crunch

is it shadow or regular?

[primal sluice]

regular

[steel parcel]

you lose to azu, gfisk, swampert, and skarmory so you should have some answers for those in the back

[primal sluice]

o ok

[analog steeple]

Altaria gets walled hard by azu and gfisk just a heads up

[twilit sapphire]

kek

[tight pilot]

Wtf is this murica

[analog steeple]

I can’t stop laughing

[lucid frigate]

Reminds me of a church in my local area putting up a poster around them encouraging pogo players to play since there were lots of stops around it sadly that was like in 2017 and the poster has since been taken down

[rustic nova]

yeah bro were just gonna travel a little so you can play pokemon go trust me nothing bad is gonna happen trust me bro

no war crimes or ptsd bro

[radiant vigil]

Lol wouldn't there be nothing most of the time cos water?

[rustic nova]

mhm. but they would stop and be stationed in different countries for different amounts of time

theyd be on the water most of the time tho

[abstract raven]

Do people just not like hosting Regi?

[analog steeple]

I think people just don’t host here often ?

[fallen quarry]

theres discords meant for remote raiding out there

[sleek quarry]

I'm in a different server with around 22k people for remote raids. I can dm you the server link if ya want

[radiant vigil]

I think regi has been out so many times unless you missed out on it earlier people already have

[stuck schooner]

bruh i just went against a grunt who has a snorlax, gardevor and a dragonite

i didnt know that was possible

[vestal hollow]

got a sealeo from an ice grunt today

was 0* tho

[zinc narwhal]

Is ditto hiding as whismur

Cause I caught a whismur but It gave me a ditto

[rotund copper]

For now, yes

[radiant vigil]

Username of the day

[charred rapids]

Actually kinda jealous of the name

[radiant vigil]

It's beautiful im jealous too

[surreal parrot]

What happened to the classics like xX_sk8r1uv3r_Xx

[radiant vigil]

It's all in the yeet now

[tight pilot]

Well... someone yeet him gdammit

[tight pilot]

I’ll get ya some today sorryyyy

[vestal hollow]

man ive been waiting for a regi raid in my area so I can use up my normal raid passes but all that keeps popping up is T1 and T3 😔

[tight pilot]

I raise you... this random that added my alt

[fluid eagle]

@steel parcel a tonne of electric geodudes been about ive been catching like mad for them 🙂

[steel parcel]

nice! yea i’m trying to get a good one for pvp ever since i killed my graveler

[final tulip]

how much does it take to trade a shiny legendary

[tight pilot]

If best friend and unowned should just be 40k dust but not sure bout lower friend levels

[final tulip]

40k dust

[tight pilot]

Thats nothinn, i think for level 1 friendship its like 1/2mil (forget which )

[final tulip]

it's saying i don't have enough dust

i guess we wait

[primal sluice]

i finally hit 1mil dust on my main LMAOOOO

[tight pilot]

Ehhh nice!!! Now keep it above there

[primal sluice]

i sadly kill my alt acc dust thou lmaooo inorder to get pokemon for great league hahahaha

[charred rapids]

i did that and spent it all instantly

on shadow mewtwos

[primal sluice]

i still havent got that as yet hahaha

[analog steeple]

What level friendship are you both?

Might also be that one of you already did a special trade

[final tulip]

i've traded twice with the alt

great friends atm

[analog steeple]

It’s 800k if one of you doesn’t already have it

[final tulip]

i see

both accounts have registeel registered so

[analog steeple]

If one of you doesn’t own the shiny version it’ll be 800k

If it’s just a plain Jane regi then it’s a bug but otherwise shinies cost a lot of stardust if not already registered for one of the partners

[final tulip]

hmm i see

[odd glade]

Did anyone see a summer form deerling yet?

[sleek quarry]

I've seen a few pop up around the park near me

[fluid eagle]

@steel parcel me and gf got near hundo geodudes we turned into graveler looking forward to getting em close to 1500 when i got dust 🙂

[steel parcel]

for pvp?

[radiant vigil]

I haven't seen any deerling yet

[primal sluice]

milliiiiii good day

[radiant vigil]

[fluid eagle]

@steel parcel yeah for pvp 🙂 got a decent set of completed pokes so working on branching out a lil

[steel parcel]

for great league you want close to 0 atk. i would evolve anyway for your hundo dex!

[fluid eagle]

why close to 0 attk?

[steel parcel]

these are rank 1 ivs for ul golem, i think rank 1 ivs for gl graveler are 0/15/14 or 0/14/15

[primal sluice]

its been raining for the past view days could nominate T.T

[steel parcel]

you can power it up more and get more bulk

so a hundo graveler will have 5 less def and 6 less hp than a 0 atk graveler

powered up to just under 1500

[ivory halo]

Gold birdi

[twilit sapphire]

Very varied raid hour

[analog steeple]

[twilit sapphire]

i know but still

not sure if i even want to try since i have awful luck with shiny

then again, better getting shinies here than in swsh full odds

[analog steeple]

@vestal osprey moving here to get outta raid channels but odds are 1/20 for legendary

[vestal osprey]

Oh yeah brain dumb

[analog steeple]

Looks like we’re both going the distance for these lol

[vestal osprey]

Ty tho @analog steeple

[crisp relic]

You gave General Rep too recently. You will be able to rep again in 4 minutes and 51 seconds.

[final tulip]

[crisp relic]

Uzbekistan has given 1 'General Rep' to Classic Christian.

[analog steeple]

@final tulip you already got one

[final tulip]

indeed

[analog steeple]

[final tulip]

on my alt

no legendaries shine for me on my main

[twilit sapphire]

imagine getting shiny legends

[analog steeple]

That’s like my alt getting all the good PvP IVs but not my main lol

[final tulip]

trade them over

[analog steeple]

I wish. If they didn’t reroll I would lol

[final tulip]

indeed

[twilit sapphire]

rainbow rock blessing

[shell hawk]

i also have a regirock

[radiant vigil]

I want registeel

[final tulip]

i wanted regirock but i got registeel

[radiant vigil]

Regirock everywhere during raid hour

[primal sluice]

so many nidoqueen

[steel parcel]

watching pokemon xyz and seeing ash bring back goodra for kalos league

googoo is feelin the love

[rustic nova]

you can become lucky friends w someone off of trade interactions right?

[analog steeple]

Once you become best friends any trade, battle, raid together gives a chance to hit lucky friends

[rustic nova]

guess im just unlucky then, having been trading with my alt daily since we got best friends like 4 months ago and havent gone lucky once

but ive gone lucky with multiple other ppl after having interacted w them 5 times after best friends

[final tulip]

i finally evolved a magikarp for the mew quest

[radiant vigil]

that's how it always works haha

[lucid frigate]

Went 5-0 with obstagoon double ghost

[analog steeple]

Don’t forget battle nights on June 3rd

[primal sluice]

20 sets?

[sleek quarry]

You can do 20 sets of 5 battles. So when you start a run, that's the first set. After 5 battles, you start your second set

[primal sluice]

o well guess it is time to grind for rank 20 XD

[sleek quarry]

Does anyone know if lures will attract Gible on community day? I plan on using incense too, but curious if a basic lure will help

[charred rapids]

Yes it will attract gible like 95% of the time

[sleek quarry]

Awesome :)

[stark narwhal]

It’s so hard to get out from under the 261 pinap berries I have

[twilit sapphire]

I always spend them on Comm Days

and magikarps for my candy karp stash

[charred rapids]

Yeah pinap plus mega altaria or Amph for gible comm day = stonks

[stark narwhal]

Yeah I guess I can burn them for Gible

I need to get a good supply of Balls tho

[finite nimbus]

@tight pilot would you mind dming me on how you host so many as well? I've wanted to get better at it but it's difficult. Saw you post in the legend raids. It's ok though if you don't wanna

[tight pilot]

Of course!

[finite nimbus]

Awesome! Thank you ^^

[tight pilot]

The more hosts the merrier, I enjoy breaks

[analog steeple]

Mitch you can post here too if ya want

/ feel comfortable

No pressure obviously but that way ya don’t have to copy paste a ton

[finite nimbus]

Hahaha that's very fair

[tight pilot]

Yeah I dont mind ofc! Its just messy bc i typed it out on my phone quickly LOL

So basically i’ll let randoms come in until I have 7-10, then I hop in the raid with both my accounts send the 10 invites (5from main to the main discord ppl or whatever and 5 to the first 5 randoms to pop up) then you should be at 100-110 seconds on timer left so hop out on your Alt account, click the raid thing like your going to join but dont actually join (where the pass bounces up and down) then count to 12 slowly in your head or watch raid timer for 12-15 sec (i just find 12 works best) then join back in & invite the next 5 randoms and it should fill up 🙏🏻

The source of randoms is probably where it gets a little sticky so can edit this if need be ** but just use reddit / other dedicated pogo raiding discord servers to source randoms 🙂

[analog steeple]

Bahahah gotta ask someone if we can pin this

[tight pilot]

Mellow’s ghetto hosting tips

If no alt you can do regular invite glitch but if ppl dont join quick enough off the hop it can be a little last minute and some ppl may miss!

[steel parcel]

any suggestions for team comps using a-muk?

i have most meta mons except gfisk, d-deox and cresselia

[karmic root]

i can do maybe 3 of those 5 things Mitch does, but it takes me twice as long haha -no alt for me and i dont use other raiding networks..sometimes it takes me half the timer just to find my 5 invites from here

[tight pilot]

Yeah having the alt definitely helps a ton! Without it you’re waiting for someone to join and “hold down” the lobby! What i’d do there is take your 5 from here and nickname them “1raid” then when i start raid up instantly search 1raid and invite those 5 then you have your 5 randoms that added you to invite next so just make sure you’re already on the friendship ⬆️ to sort by least amount of friendship and fire off those invites as quick as possible! (How i do it when im out without the alt phone) so same process just a bit slower haha

[primal sluice]

@analog steeple wt rank ur in atm?

[teal bough]

Anyone else having trouble evolving their Eevee into Sylveon? The name trick was already used. My buddy is at Great level sneaking into ultra. Do they need to be my buddy when I evolve or not? All I'm seeing is the espeon or umbron choice instead of a sylveon outline....Does my Eevee buddy have to be a Best Buddy?

[primal sluice]

i believe you need to have it as a buddy and earn 20 hearts whiles it is your buddy

[charred rapids]

70

[primal sluice]

70*

ty for correcting me XD

[teal bough]

Well that's my problem.... It Is my buddy and at Great working to Ultra. Apparently Great buddy=70 hearts.

[steel parcel]

it’s 70 hearts starting from when you first buddied it

[teal bough]

The problem is it never tells you your accumulated hearts.....

[steel parcel]

do you remember how many hearts you were at before?

https://www.kitsunekurisu.com/buddy-checker

you can use this to gauge your progress

[teal bough]

Oooh so glad someone came out with this to help

It says I have about 79

Do I have to try with a non shiny first? I've saved this one specifically for a shiny sylveon....

This was my first time making it my buddy too. Took about 2 weeks of almost daily play

[sleek quarry]

Does anyone have the Gible Community day ticket? Or has it not been released yet?

[charred rapids]

probably on friday/saturday

[teal bough]

I'm in America but it hasnt been out yet

[sleek quarry]

Ok, I thought maybe my store glitched or something. Thx :)

[teal bough]

No problem!

[primal sluice]

did you get those hearts before sylveon was out becuz if yes then those heart dosent count

[teal bough]

Nope. I started the day it came out....maybe the day after.
