[cerulean imp]

[dusty oracle]

It'll be when the event starts.

[pastel lintel]

and when is that

[dusty oracle]

"On Sunday, September 5, 2021, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time, various strange phenomena will be happening all around the world —maybe this has something to do with Hoopa?!"

[lapis swallow]

How do you get XL candies?

Is it a level 40 thing?

[final tulip]

it's a level 40 thing

[charred rapids]

The heck you pinging me for?

[twilit sapphire]

[pastel lintel]

Hoopa is starting to arrive in places let’s go!

[wet jewel]

[wet jewel]

Nothin much, just finishing work and checking the raid section, and the first message? Aimee's xD

[pastel lintel]

[charred rapids]

I’ll be sure to tell you I got hoopa but not show you, close enough?

[wet jewel]

Ohh its Asia's release time soon rite?

[pastel lintel]

can you at least show me the stats plsssss

[charred rapids]

Ahhhh yes, do not ask for raids

[pastel lintel]

no it’s already out there

[charred rapids]

It’s only NZ at the moment

I am in Queensland and I currently do not have it

[pastel lintel]

f

I wonder if we will get another Hoopa for Hoopa unbound

[charred rapids]

Actually I don’t think it’s even hit NZ yet, would be close though

[charred rapids]

Yeah 11am on Sunday, the closest to that would be NZ which is I believe 9:36 at the moment

[wet jewel]

So, i can only get it between 1100 to 1700??

[pastel lintel]

no

that’s the collection challenge

i hope

[wet jewel]

Oh oh oh, my bad

[charred rapids]

I believe we have a kiwi in here somewhere, they’ll have it posted by near afternoon

[twilit sapphire]

whoops

[charred rapids]

Followed by the aussies close behind

[pastel lintel]

collection challenge isn’t much but I will bring Hoopa to his full potential

[wet jewel]

I am going to start early so i can do it with both accounts

[charred rapids]

I’ll be on the road gotta long drive

[pastel lintel]

F

[wet jewel]

Damn

[twilit sapphire]

oooh

a pose

I'm only missing Mesprit from the lake fairies

[charred rapids]

Ima try for at least 2-3 shiny each, the hunt is gonna be so boring

[faint ferry]

NZ here and the quest hasnt progressed for me yet either

10:15am

[charred rapids]

Yeah 11am you’ll get it soon though

[faint ferry]

disappointed deino isnt included in the dark type list for this... litwick is nice at least though

still only need 10 dragon types to progress the dumb shiny mew quest

[twilit sapphire]

praying for shiny litwick in halloween

[faint ferry]

i just want candy to evolve my hundo lampent

[lapis swallow]

Thanks for letting me know!

[crisp relic]

Smallzers has given 1 'General Rep' to Uzbekistan.

[faint ferry]

lol first mon from incense is espeon

[faint ferry]

just 1 more unique mon to catch and some stardust...

either ponyta or some random non event one

keep getting espeons...

[pastel lintel]

what CP does Hoopa have to be for Hundo?

[faint ferry]

depends what level it comes at, right?

[final tulip]

i believe it's 1439

1439 when you are able to catch it from the quest

[twilit sapphire]

yeh its 1439

[pastel lintel]

okay

guess im about to make so many alternate accounts trying to get hundo hoopa

[faint ferry]

lol

[twilit sapphire]

why do you want a hundo one in an alt

[pastel lintel]

i can trade it over with another device

[dusty oracle]

That's... not how that works.

[pastel lintel]

which i have

what?

[twilit sapphire]

that's not how it works lmao

[dusty oracle]

Mythicals can't be traded.

[pastel lintel]

o

[dusty oracle]

And even if they could,

[twilit sapphire]

that and

[pastel lintel]

f

[dusty oracle]

IVs reroll on trade.

[twilit sapphire]

the fact that ivs reroll if they could

[pastel lintel]

A

[faint ferry]

lol

[dusty oracle]

So you'd have to reroll the hundo in the trade.

[faint ferry]

im gonna see if i can get it on my alts anyway cause everything goes to home

[twilit sapphire]

but back again, since they're myths there is no way to trade it

[dusty oracle]

Could transfer it to HOME as an at least 5iv mon, when we're allowed to push it to HOME.

[faint ferry]

yeah

ponyta must be way rarer than espeon...

[pastel lintel]

i hatched shiny ponyta

[faint ferry]

my alt phone doesnt wanna connect to wifi...

[crisp relic]

Sahid0 has given 1 'General Rep' to Aimee.

[wet jewel]

Thanks for the Info!!!

[faint ferry]

@pastel lintel

[pastel lintel]

poggers

[timber shadow]

Hoopa released already?

[pastel lintel]

such a good model

thanks for showing me

[final tulip]

only in nz/some parts of aus rn

[twilit sapphire]

on the other side of the world

[timber shadow]

Ohh

[twilit sapphire]

11 am in your local time

[faint ferry]

seems my alt phone will never again connect to wifi

[twilit sapphire]

[pastel lintel]

are there any ways to increase the chance of Hundo?

[faint ferry]

no

[tight pilot]

I mean… could make a crap ton of alt accts till you get it but then it wont be on your main and therefore kinda redundant

[faint ferry]

doing the quest on 3 alts atm lol

[pastel lintel]

what quest lol

[faint ferry]

... for hoopa

[pastel lintel]

oh

im not making alts because sence im a hoopa fan

i already have all event Hoopa

I even hacked for a Shiny Hoopa

[faint ferry]

lol

[pastel lintel]

well

ill make alts for Hoopa with my OT actually lol

wait

can you connect two pokemon go accounts to one pokemon home or no

[faint ferry]

yes

[pastel lintel]

okay phew

[faint ferry]

i have 5 connected to my home account

[pastel lintel]

HoopaDoge Hoopa here I come!

[radiant vigil]

Hoopa is out?

[pastel lintel]

in some places

[faint ferry]

in NZ

[pastel lintel]

i want Hoopa now though….

[radiant vigil]

Oh so i just wait an hour or two then huh

[faint ferry]

11am local

[pastel lintel]

i guess so

[radiant vigil]

Or is it 11am

[pastel lintel]

i gotta wait until tommorow

[faint ferry]

its almost 1pm here

[radiant vigil]

Ah sweet, 10 minutes then

[pastel lintel]

hehe

Hoopa quest is ez

[radiant vigil]

You're literally the only person here with an earlier timezone than me

My only source for future pogo goss lol

[faint ferry]

lel

[radiant vigil]

[vestal hollow]

ah i gotta wait till tomorrow for hoopa 😔

[pastel lintel]

same

[vestal hollow]

that's alright tho im not rlly in a rush

[pastel lintel]

easy quest, no need for lots of pokeballs

[faint ferry]

only thing about the hoopa quest is there arent enough psychic spawns to complete the middle task

[pastel lintel]

unless your grinding for Hoopa candy

[pastel lintel]

wdym?

[faint ferry]

only 9 psychic types spawn, 2 of them are "rare", meaning youve gotta catch something other than whats spawning from incense

[radiant vigil]

We have to use incense?

[faint ferry]

or wait for the hour to flip

[pastel lintel]

wouldn’t natu work

[pastel lintel]

there’s a free incense

[radiant vigil]

I hope pogo thinks it's windy today, need that weather boost

[pastel lintel]

just turn on your air conditioner

[radiant vigil]

My windows have been rattling all morning so there's a chance

[glad rover]

The tasks seem easy enough and the tasks for the Hoopa encounter is number 3. So while there are 16 parts it seems like half of them are just going to be wait for Professor Willow to go to the next part

[faint ferry]

think we get unbound later in the quest?

[glad rover]

Since task 4 after the Hoopa encounter is the same message as task 2.

Probably especially since Unbound was found in the game’s code

[pastel lintel]

i feel like we should catch 2 hoopa

one for unbound and one for confined

[glad rover]

The Confined one can’t be transferred yet so it being able to transform into Unbound makes a bit more sense

[pastel lintel]

or i want it to be a choose thing, where we choose if we want unbound or not

[faint ferry]

doubt the one we catch transforms...

much more likely we just catch unbound also, right?

[pastel lintel]

so we catch unbound maybe

I mean, confined Hoopa could only summon one legendary at a time in the movie

Unbound could summon 6 at a time I think, maybe 7

[glad rover]

Well in the Movie the Unbound one is not a second Hoopa. Hoopa can’t control its unbound form but the form breaks free from the Prison Bottle

[pastel lintel]

It would make sence for us to catch it, or maybe even the Hoopa Shadow would infect Professor Willow?

And then professor willow would find another Hoopa that isn’t ours and we catch unbound?

[radiant vigil]

Ah i see it

Hoopa quest haha

[glad rover]

Niantic giving us two of the same mythicals, seems kinda strange really. Besides the raid myths, and shiny Celebi and Mew they’ve only really had a second mythical for separate events

[pastel lintel]

Well there’s a first for everything

[faint ferry]

hoopa is like the only one with alt forms, right?

[final tulip]

deoxys too

[pastel lintel]

uh

[faint ferry]

oh yeah, deoxys

[pastel lintel]

Deoxys, shaymin,

Meloetta

[faint ferry]

have they done shaymin yet?

[pastel lintel]

No

I thought you meant all together lol

[glad rover]

Shaymin’s not in yet, but Meloetta’s other form was done from the camera I think

[pastel lintel]

What?

[faint ferry]

and theyve done one form of meloetta

[twilit sapphire]

just show people the Mew quest line and they cry

[pastel lintel]

Yeah

[glad rover]

Meloetta was the Go Fest mythical this year

[pastel lintel]

yes

I caught it

[faint ferry]

same

[glad rover]

So the only Gen 5 mythical they haven’t had in the game yet is Keldeo

[radiant vigil]

[twilit sapphire]

laughs in shaymin

laughs in manaphy and phione

[glad rover]

And Shaymin and Arceus

[pastel lintel]

laughs in Hoopa

[twilit sapphire]

Hoopa is in the game at least

[pastel lintel]

laughs in arceus, the bad pokemon

[twilit sapphire]

we're talking in myths that aren't here

[glad rover]

Gen 4 has only had Darkrai as the only mythical in the game

[faint ferry]

absurd that they put out zacian and zamazenta before all sorts of others, before even completing gen 4

[pastel lintel]

before releasing gen 7 lol

[glad rover]

Well they skipped over Gen 7 to basically

[faint ferry]

yeah

[twilit sapphire]

at least they weren't the crowned dogs

so its good

[faint ferry]

gen 4-6 incomplete, 0 gen 7

[pastel lintel]

it’s because they don’t know how to implement ultra necrozma

:)

[faint ferry]

lol

[twilit sapphire]

gen 3 is also dex incomplete

[pastel lintel]

wait what

[glad rover]

Well after the Ultra games it really hasn’t been implemented

[faint ferry]

is it?

[twilit sapphire]

https://tenor.com/view/lacrando-desfile-pokemon-marvisbr-kecleon-gif-18223734

[faint ferry]

gen 3 is missing kek leon?

[pastel lintel]

probably

[twilit sapphire]

yes

[faint ferry]

lol

[glad rover]

What is missing from the Gen 3 dex? I thought I was only missing the region exclusive Pokémon in that dex.

Kecleon is not in the game, I did not know that

[twilit sapphire]

kecleon is the only missing mon

from gen 3

[faint ferry]

kek

[glad rover]

So that’s another reason why I can’t complete the Hoenn dex

[faint ferry]

hurry up and spawn, stupid eggs

go away bird

[twilit sapphire]

I only have full dex of Kanto and Johto sadly

[glad rover]

I got a question since I’m curious, I have a Clamperl as my buddy and it’s facing backwards in the buddy circle. Is that normal?

[faint ferry]

i dont have full johto yet

[twilit sapphire]

game do get buggy from time to time

[glad rover]

Unown was the last thing I needed for Johto dex and thanks to the Ultra Unlocks I got that.

Kanto Tour helped me complete Kanto dex

[faint ferry]

i think they should sell different flavours of incense... one that spawn mons based on gen

[glad rover]

Strangely I also tried it with two other Clamperl I have but they also were facing backwards. But then I tried it with my Munna and it was facing forwards. So seems like this bug only effects Clamperl as far as I know

[pastel lintel]

I heard that you can find uxie, mesprit, and azelf in the wild

[twilit sapphire]

you can

[pastel lintel]

how

[twilit sapphire]

they're pretty rare tho

[pastel lintel]

what’s the chance

[twilit sapphire]

well, they just spawn

they dissapear fast too

[glad rover]

But only by water and in specific parts of the world for each one

[pastel lintel]

wow

[glad rover]

Like Azelf can be found in the US, but the other two are found in other parts of the world

[twilit sapphire]

in my city we only had 4 Azelf spawns detected

[faint ferry]

gross

[pastel lintel]

holy

[twilit sapphire]

so far since it was released

[pastel lintel]

is it like

as rare as a main game shiny?

[glad rover]

Basically the Lake Trio spawn outside of events as often as Unown do outside of events, which is very little

[faint ferry]

ill probably catch these 3 extra hoopas tomorrow when spawns are more varied...

[pastel lintel]

ok

can you show me your Hoopa

[faint ferry]

lol

[glad rover]

If I ever find an Azelf I’d be ecstatic. It’s why whenever I’m around water and there’s a Pokéstop close to it I keep my eyes open

[radiant vigil]

[twilit sapphire]

the badly cut kek

[radiant vigil]

my forte is bad keks

[faint ferry]

[twilit sapphire]

[radiant vigil]

[reef shuttle]

[radiant vigil]

[twilit sapphire]

[faint ferry]

ponyta spawns for an alt and then runs away 😒

stupid pink donkey

[glad osprey]

Idk what to do

Cause I got one more stamp

Which will be tomorrow

Should I wait till the event starts

Tomorrow

Or like do it at twelve

[radiant vigil]

Never thought I'd see the day where I'm chasing rattata spawns

[glad osprey]

I am

[pastel lintel]

hundo Hoopa has been found (I’m posting it here because it’s not mine)

[radiant vigil]

Better than mine

[pastel lintel]

I hope I get a Hundo Hoopa

If I don’t, I hope I don’t get a max attack one

your Hoopa is so bad tho

[glad osprey]

How you get them

Like the stamps?

Cause one more then I’m good

[pastel lintel]

wdym the stamps?

[glad osprey]

Field research stamps

The ones you get

So like you spin poke stop boom

You get one

[pastel lintel]

you do the task

[glad osprey]

Oh

Ok easy they come out yet

[pastel lintel]

Hoopa is out in certain places

And to get Hoopa it is a research task

Not field research

[glad osprey]

Their different

So like not the stamps

Like the thing

The last one

Just let me show picture

This?

[glad osprey]

Special research right

[pastel lintel]

Finally you get it, yes Hoopa is in special research.

Field research is Ditto.

[glad osprey]

Could of told me that

[pastel lintel]

could of looked at pins

[glad osprey]

Yeah but

It says field research

To confusion

[pastel lintel]

you were saying?

[glad osprey]

How tf did I miss that

Like what just ignored it

The seasonal special research

[pastel lintel]

why does the the human brain ignore the second the

[glad osprey]

Idk

[pastel lintel]

:)

[glad osprey]

Bro I’m actually so dead

That made me laugh

[pastel lintel]

yes

[glad osprey]

Such an idiot

[pastel lintel]

it’s a funny trick i learned heheh

[glad osprey]

[pastel lintel]

don’t worry, it tricks everybody

[glad osprey]

Sure sure

[pastel lintel]

it even tricked me first

[radiant vigil]

Niantic used confusion it's super effective haha

[dark wadi]

Come ooonnnnnn jynx and beldum

[radiant vigil]

that was me earlier today with rattata and carvanha haha

[odd glade]

So it makes more sense why we can't transfer Hoopa to Home yet, we will probably need it for the rest of the research. When it's done it will be transferable

[lusty spoke]

Or something something hoopa other form ?

[odd glade]

Amen

[cerulean imp]

Only got a 2 star hoppa while my alt got 15 14 15 almost perfect damn

[pastel lintel]

that sucks

I have never gotten a Hundo so I have almost no chance of getting one

But I hope I get it because I’m a huge Hoopa fan

[cerulean imp]

The challenges were really easy, sure you will manage

[pastel lintel]

I’m not worried about the challenges

I’m worried about what Hoopa I get

[torn arrow]

This was my hoopa

[pastel lintel]

Either way I’ll like it a lot but I hope that if I don’t get a Hundo one it atleast doesn’t have max attack IVs

wait

how does special attack work in pokemon go?

[torn arrow]

special attack is just the attack stat

[pastel lintel]

OH

okay, I want max attack and max hp then

[torn arrow]

special stats don't really exist

[pastel lintel]

[torn arrow]

if you want to use it in PvP 0/15/15 is the most optimal for most pokemon

Unsure about hoopa though

[pastel lintel]

I don’t really care about PvP Hoopa

[torn arrow]

oh ok

[pastel lintel]

I’m just happy to see Hoopa in the spotlight again

After so many years My favorite pokemon, hoopa, is finally back in the spotlight

[torn arrow]

I only started playing go a month ago and I haven't played gen 6 on the 3ds, so this is my first hoopa

[pastel lintel]

cool

i have a lot of the event hoopas

[torn arrow]

I have only one hoopa

[cerulean imp]

My 1st hoppa too

[torn arrow]

mods ban him /s

[pastel lintel]

don’t worry, I won’t trade it heheh

[barren tangle]

My dude

[pastel lintel]

i don’t use them

[wet jewel]

Misunderstood Mischief

[robust schooner]

How do you pull up requirements for it?

[dapper yarrow]

niceee

[faint ferry]

im about to catch my 4th hoopa

[wind whale]

ty

[crisp relic]

Xanthian365 has given 1 'General Rep' to Sahid0.

[faint ferry]

you get hoopa on the 3rd stage of the quest

[robust schooner]

How do you pull up the stages tab though?

[faint ferry]

wym

[wind whale]

the glasses lookin thing bottom right

[robust schooner]

Ok

[wet jewel]

Yeah, go to the glasses at bottom right, then on "Special" (check the top)

Today is where you can see boosts, any special events going on RIGHT NOW, and your pokemon in gyms.
Field is where you check your missions from pokestops
Special is where you can see special researches

[wind whale]

i just want a psychic type to spawn ;;;

[robust schooner]

Thx

[dapper yarrow]

yeah I need to take a snapshot of one too

[faint ferry]

its weird that they want you to take 3 shots of them...

since you can just spam them all on the 1 mon

[wind whale]

finally got it

[wet jewel]

YAY!

Ok, got Hoopa and the Collection Challenge... Im not impressed.. mainly because the Hoopa was a 2star XD

[robust schooner]

I long do we have to complete it?

[wet jewel]

I think the Collection Challenge is for today...

[robust schooner]

So it changes daily?

[faint ferry]

no, its just for the one day

[robust schooner]

So can only catch Hoopa today then?

[faint ferry]

no, the hoopa research sticks around permanently once you have it, the collection challenge is only for the 1 day

[robust schooner]

Oh ok, so as long as I do the Hoopa research quest at some point I can catch it?

[faint ferry]

yup

as long as you pick it up before the 3 months or whatever it is are up

[robust schooner]

Nice, though doesn’t that kinda destroy its rarity abit lol?

[faint ferry]

though there will probably be some sort of alt quest for hoopa after that period

the same as every other mythical research

[robust schooner]

Dang, think they will bring back shiny darkrai raids?

[faint ferry]

at some point probably

hoopa will probably become a research task you pick up after completing the victini one after this event

[robust schooner]

Also friend code is 0035 1028 8317 if anyone feels like adding me. I haven’t played in several years so I’m relearning everything after I lost my old account.

[safe canopy]

Anyone have a way to fix Pokémon go crashing on start up? I’m on iPhone 6 if that helps

[final tulip]

yeah, get a new phone

but seriously, iphone 6 might be too old to run the newest version of pogo

[wet jewel]

Ohh yeah, i had an iphone6 last year, cant run pogo 100% sure

[faint ferry]

seriously? that seems... bad

[chilly apex]

How do i get hoopa

I see he’s on something for the new challenge but idk how to get him

Help

Plz

[analog steeple]

Scroll to the tasks

[twilit sapphire]

Read the pins and the tasks

[chilly apex]

can the hoopa be shiny?

[charred rapids]

No

[chilly apex]

oof

[twilit sapphire]

Of course not

Why would it be

[charred rapids]

[vestal hollow]

only missing 2 pokemon for the collection challenge..

[chilly apex]

is there anything about there being a hoopa unbound?

[charred rapids]

Again why would there be?

[chilly apex]

idk

y not?

[vestal hollow]

can't even transfer hoopa unbound to anything

[charred rapids]

Because we just got this hoopa, why would they bring out any info on unbound

Too soon

[vestal hollow]

i mean maybe later in the event but it's too early rn

[chilly apex]

i caught hoopa

[signal steeple]

oi

[ivory halo]

Worked for me.

Candle boi returns

[twilit sapphire]

Yeeh Litwick came for the event

finally

I can raise up my balls

[odd quail]

So should I transfer all of my legendary/ mythological Pokémon that are not 3 stars or keep them

[twilit sapphire]

I'm gonna be honest, any legendary/myth dupe that i'm not gonna power up or have a legacy move are going to be yeeted

but into my HOME

not as in game transfer

I already transfered like 50 mewtwos

[odd quail]

So if I toss them in home I still get the candy

[charred rapids]

I transfer crappy legendaries for candy, don’t have the energy to transfer them all to home, but mythical’s yeah I don’t touch those

[twilit sapphire]

Yeah you still get candy transfer for yeeting into home

[odd quail]

And it will still be doubled ?

[twilit sapphire]

the only myths that would count as dupe are Darkrai

and Genesect

since both were in raids and i have decent amount

[odd quail]

Cool tnx for the info @twilit sapphire and @charred rapids

[twilit sapphire]

Uh not sure about double candy transfer, let me transfer some legends and i'll let you know

[odd quail]

Ok TY

[twilit sapphire]

i did get 2 candies per legend transfer

[odd quail]

Sheeesh Nice

Thank you so much for the info

[ivory halo]

How long did it take for you to get to the point that you can freely transfer legendaries to Home?

[sleek quarry]

If I don't have any that are good IVs, like 10/10/10 legendaries, I'll just send them to home. I've only been playing for 9 months

[twilit sapphire]

3 years of raiding when presencial was a thing like i never raided hard as other people

but at last i had something between 5 to 10 of each, depending

my uni had lots of gyms, so during raid hours we just made paths with the local uni group

good ol' pre covid days

[ivory halo]

Oh wow

[twilit sapphire]

I still have lots of legends I haven't transfer because I forgot

my goal was to transfer all the legends by the end of the year that i wouldn't use so i could have more space but forgot each week since home energy is a pain

[ivory halo]

I am in awe

[charred rapids]

This is not okay

[twilit sapphire]

yeet them to hoome

[charred rapids]

I trade em first but I can’t keep up

A trade guarantees candy and if it’s over distance an XL too

[oak shale]

is everyone yeeting their hoops to Home?

[twilit sapphire]

We can't even transfer it

[oak shale]

bruh what

[twilit sapphire]

yeah it actually says in the game News

i know, surprising reading the news

[oak shale]

lolll

I don't read

[twilit sapphire]

Please consider reading the news, you should, is a very useful skill

[oak shale]

wait so when they say "earn twice the candy for transferring pokemon" they don't mean Hoopa?

[twilit sapphire]

nope

[oak shale]

f

[rustic nova]

Anyone else just not bothering doing the Hoopa thing lol

I’m saving incense for Com day

[twilit sapphire]

it isn't that hard, incense come and go so easily to save them

specially since you can do the collection challenge with only one

and the research give you the one you used back

[charred rapids]

There's a free one in the store too isn't there?

[twilit sapphire]

yes yes

[oak shale]

yep

[bitter aspen]

I don’t think I have enough pokeballs to catch hoopa😭

[pastel lintel]

it’s 100% catch rate

[twilit sapphire]

even if you ran out of balls, it stays in your research to catch later if you leave the encounter

[bitter aspen]

🤔🤔🧐

[charred rapids]

My recent catches

[bitter aspen]

Nice

[pastel lintel]

I still haven’t even got mew

I can’t find a ditto

[oak shale]

yea it is really hard to find it

you need to find one of those discords in your area that reports where dittos are

assuming you live near a big city

otherwise, it is very frustrating to catch a ditto

[pastel lintel]

i need duskull for collection challenge

what do I do

[tawny brook]

So can anyone else NOT transfer there Hoopa?

[pastel lintel]

uh

[tawny brook]

To Pokémon Home

[pastel lintel]

nobody can

we are gonna use Hoopa for the rest of the quest line

[tawny brook]

Ahh ok

That’s why

Thought it was just me

[pastel lintel]

after the quest we should be able to transfer it to home

[tawny brook]

Hopefully

Hoppa My second fav Mythical

[twilit sapphire]

If only people read

[pastel lintel]

Hoopa is my favorite Pokémon

[twilit sapphire]

like 5 messages above

[pastel lintel]

yeah lol

[twilit sapphire]

.

[woeful phoenix]

Hey so.. was there a limited time to log in for the collection challenge?

[final tulip]

reading

[woeful phoenix]

I don't have the collection challenge

[twilit sapphire]

the collection challenges are only for the day and depends where you live

[final tulip]

it ends at 5 or 6 local time

[twilit sapphire]

it ends at 5pm local time

[final tulip]

yeah that

[woeful phoenix]

Oh it does?

[twilit sapphire]

also late congrats on level 40

[analog steeple]

can’t transfer my hoopa pls advise I don’t read comments or pins or in game news

[final tulip]

yo thanks aimee

[pastel lintel]

AHAHAHA

[pastel lintel]

read 10 message up

[final tulip]

[twilit sapphire]

[analog steeple]

[charred rapids]

Well. I completed it and got the Pokéball Lift pose

I used Incense to get the other Pokémon before Hoopa

[twilit sapphire]

the ball pose is pretty cool

[tight pilot]

@twilit sapphire

[twilit sapphire]

bruh

[final tulip]

12 raid shundo

[twilit sapphire]

3 raids shiny

but cries in ho oh shiny

my baby never came home

[final tulip]

oh i got my first shiny lugia on the first raid

during go fest

[charred rapids]

Still need to do 12 more steps

[analog steeple]

Chos alt first lugia raid : shiny
First lugia raid on my main: shiny

[final tulip]

2cho2furious

[twilit sapphire]

imagine getting shundos

[analog steeple]

[rustic nova]

Ya but I only have 2 now, the free one from store and the one from the quest lol

Would rather just wait till com day to use them

[raw pulsar]

at what step do you get hoopa?

[hasty obsidian]

3/16

[twilit sapphire]

yeah you get it fast

[gritty siren]

man

20+ raids and no shiny luiga

I give up

[ancient fox]

i got a shiny in a max raid adventure and it was not a good one in my opinion

[gritty siren]

aesthetically?

I personally adore it and I've never gotten a shiny legendary other than given ones from events

[twilit sapphire]

No need to post that kind of gifs when the chat is active from time to time

[pastel lintel]

I couldn’t do the collection challenge because i didn’t have any incense or pokecoins until it was almost done

[steel parcel]

there was a free incense in the shop

someone in my local discord messaged me asking where i got my pose like 10 min after the collection challenge ended

[rotund copper]

Got Team Mystic, Valor, and Instinct fighting for the hospital gym

Never thought I’d see this many pogo players in one hospital at the same time

[twilit sapphire]

F

[rotund copper]

WAIT it already ended??

[steel parcel]

ends at 5 pm local time

[rotund copper]

nooo that’s the only one I’ve never finished

[subtle bough]

noooooooo emilio

[rotund copper]

There goes the perfect collection challenge medal I wanted

Only got 23 now because of that

[glad rover]

I was kinda rushing through the catching sequence for the Hoopa encounter. Was it possible to catch it in either a Great Ball or Ultra Ball to? I noticed that it was a typical wild encounter view instead of an AR view like it was for other mythicals

[radiant vigil]

i believe so, no stinky AR

but poke is clean ball anyway

[glad rover]

True

So I guess Hoopa’s legal now in a pokéball, great, and ultra ball. In PoGo at least since it’s transfer locked for now.

[wet jewel]

Got a question, what do you guys do with them shinies? I mean i got a 0* shiny magikarp and a 4* magikarp, im not a pvper but the second magikarp hits harder at gyms... but shiny gyrados looks cool (and shiny) whats the general rule here??

Im basically crying for help to make a decision 🤣🤣🤣

[radiant vigil]

if it's comm day, i yeet all but the minimum for living shiny dex in pogo (and keep the meta useful ones)

otherwise i just go for living shiny dex and trade the spares for stuff i need (either IRL or via home)

[steel parcel]

@rotund copper did you make a post about the collection challenge on reddit?

[rotund copper]

Mayyybee

[steel parcel]

lol i scrolled past but saw the username and was like.. wait a sec

[rotund copper]

I don’t remember what account I posted on, I have a few Alts

[wet jewel]

Thanks for the advice

[crisp relic]

Sahid0 has given 1 'General Rep' to milliaswan.

[gritty siren]

I literally did it with lure and incense and got two of the mons

so I call bs on it lmao

[radiant vigil]

there was a free incense in the shop

[gritty siren]

I used one

[steel parcel]

i reminded bf to finish the challenge on his bb acct and he had to add friends to get enough pokeballs to finish

[gritty siren]

I literally got a plethora of natus, pidgeys, spearows, and two fearows

[radiant vigil]

i didn't realise the spawns changed by the hour, so i was confused why i couldn't find rattata

then the hour swapped, lol

[steel parcel]

i used one incense at the beginning of the event and found the rest walking around campus

did you finish the challenge?

[gritty siren]

I had a 12 hour shift today so I couldn't do like any of it

😔

[gritty siren]

I also didn't know this tho

[steel parcel]

oof yea niantic definitely has the weekday 9-5 crowd in mind when they design events like these

[gritty siren]

I don't play GO regularly enough

I started it again because I'm on campus and figured yknow walking around and lots of gyms n stuff

[steel parcel]

that’s fine, you can still get hoopa whenever. it’s just the pose and xp (and the collection medal if you’re a completionist)

[gritty siren]

but weekends are rough 😭

Oh yea I got the hoopa lol, I tried to complete the thing I just didn't lol

but its all g

[charred rapids]

I completed it just amazed I got a pose free

[gilded rune]

Anyone know what the ditto spawns are?

[hasty obsidian]

From Leekduck.com

[gilded rune]

thanks

[faint ferry]

i havent seen one of them spawn so far

[pastel lintel]

I have not even caught a ditto ever and still need to find it for mew quest

[charred rapids]

It’s legit the research breakthrough encounter for the month

[pastel lintel]

i know

not everybody has a research breakthrough at the start of the event

[charred rapids]

Git gud

[radiant vigil]

[twilit sapphire]

wait you guys don't have the 7th day ready to open when a new cool mon is in the box?

[past verge]

I've only found 2 ditto throughout everything.

Since I've been playing

Does anyone want my fc? I'm sure itd help with some of the tasks to get through the research

[charred rapids]

g

I got one that looks likes it but different style

But I barely participate but it’s 1 in the morning for me

[twilit sapphire]

You can also post your friend code here #pogo_friend_codes there is always someone looking for friends

[wind whale]

ty!

[crisp relic]

Xanthian365 has given 1 'General Rep' to Zzetti.

[twilit sapphire]

F for zzetti getting pinged in the middle of the night

[wind whale]

ah sorry!

[twilit sapphire]

it's okay, it was just for the lulz don't worry

[slate granite]

Got the Lad yesterday

[charred rapids]

hey anyone what is supposed to happen with 4/16 research

[dusty oracle]

You don't have to do anything, just wait for the next participating event to come along!

This research is going to run for the entire season, so it'll regularly have stopping points!

[dapper yarrow]

Oh thats why Gulpin was a ditto xD

[glad rover]

Yeah from what it seems half of the 16 parts of the research are just waiting points

[rotund copper]

Anyone else having issues with the “Can Evolve” search filter?

[analog steeple]

Noticed it on my alt the other day

[rotund copper]

Ah so it’s not just me.

[charred rapids]

anyone know why i can transfer my hoopa to pokemon home

im full of transport energy

i dont have any transfers pending

[hasty obsidian]

It can't be moved to Home at the moment

[charred rapids]

big lame

[odd glade]

It's not like you can use it in SwSh anyways

It will probably be transferable when the research is done or when the season is over

[charred rapids]

im aware, im trying to complete the dex in home

[odd glade]

No one to touch trade with?

[charred rapids]

you get a shiny magearna (origin form)

how do i plan to touch trade smh

[hasty obsidian]

It's another form, not shiny

[charred rapids]

[odd glade]

wym

[charred rapids]

you cant trade mythicals on home

[odd glade]

You can

You are liimited to 10 trades a day tho

[charred rapids]

not through any method that im aware of, you cant gts it

[odd glade]

You add someone as a friend, then pick Friend Trade

I used it many times

[charred rapids]

word ima look into it. preciate it.

[odd glade]

npnp

[twilit sapphire]

it's not a shiny magearna

[charred rapids]

im fully aware, i said it was the origin form

did they ever release shiny mag

the actual shiny

[hasty obsidian]

Not yet

[flint wind]

what if i told you guys i got a 0 15 15 heracross on vacay

[radiant vigil]

some people would get very jelly

[flint wind]

and right after the balance changes

[distant oyster]

Did you all get the poke ball emote

Beldum took me forever to find but I got it

[twilit sapphire]

yeah, got them all in one hour

[flint wind]

i got it too!

[distant oyster]

Nice

I like it

It’s actually not bad looking xD

Most of the free ones are sadly

[flint wind]

[distant oyster]

Hoopa event is alright so far

Hoping we get the other form because of the page count lol

[flint wind]

only shinies i got were caterpie and lugia

[distant oyster]

Nice

None for me so far

Got a friend with a wurmple caught today but that’s it

[twilit sapphire]

imagine getting shinies outside of community days

[radiant vigil]

[round abyss]

I too play the pogo

Does anyone here think it's worth holding on to pokemon to trade until I get lucky

Im holding onto 137 rn and I just maxed out my storage

[distant oyster]

My luck as well

[twilit sapphire]

unless you have a trustable person who you can trade with regularly, maybe

if you can't see that person, then there is no point in saving that

[round abyss]

I got a few friends at school who could help me with trading but what are the chances for a lucky trade

[radiant vigil]

you need to be best friends first, and it's like 5%

[faint ferry]

its also like +5% for every year difference between the pokemon ages

[cerulean imp]

I got a lucky pokemon in my 1st ever trade last year. Guess i got lucky i traded a 2016 for a 2020 pokemon for the extra 5%+

[analog steeple]

Have you traded 2016 Pokémon before @cerulean imp ?

The first 10 Pokémon from 2016 you trade are guaranteed lucky

[cerulean imp]

No lol only 1. Didnt know that was a thing

[analog steeple]

It also counts if someone sends you a 2016 mon

So I’ve been keeping track of my 2016 trades

[cerulean imp]

Ah so i should really trade the 2016 for pokemon i want to get as lucky. Binned quite a few so only have 15 or so left

[glad rover]

This text here makes me feel like they’re going to have a Zarude research to celebrate the movie. Skipping Gen 7 again maybe

They already had an event for Shiny Celebi so Zarude is the only thing they can really cover in the game

[dusty oracle]

Hope for the best, but assume it's just going to be a Shiny Celebi rerun.

[torn arrow]

at least I can get a shiny celebi lol

[faint ferry]

i might get a 3rd shiny celebi...

or a second zarude if we're really lucky

[vestal hollow]

guess I'm getting a second shiny celebi lol

if we even are getting it in pogo

[faint ferry]

i mean, itll be one of those 2, right? and celebi is more likely than skipping 2 gens of mythicals [glares at zacian and zamazenta]

[glad rover]

I feel Zarude’s more likely. They’re already giving another shiny Celebi from the serial codes, they’re being a bit more generous with shiny mythicals but I don’t think they’d be that generous

Then Shiny Celebi would probably beat out Zeraora for most common shiny mythical

[dusty oracle]

I mean a research that'll give Shiny Celebi if you didn't grab DIstracted by Something Shiny, Celebi candy if you did.

A la how Go Fest Research works.

[glad rover]

Yeah that could also make sense.

[dusty oracle]

Psychic Spectacular tasks have been pushed worldwide early.

[sterile cargo]

i just caught a Ditto from a quest and I got another quest that says catch a Ditto 😭

the Mew quest

[faint ferry]

well its in the 7 day field research thing atm so should be easy enough

[twilit sapphire]

zarude raids?

[sterile cargo]

?

[twilit sapphire]

Your 7-day research box?

It has ditto when you do the 7-day daily field researchs

[sterile cargo]

what about it

[sterile cargo]

Every time you do it you get a Ditto?

[twilit sapphire]

yes?

[sterile cargo]

im sorta new since i haven't played Go in so long

[twilit sapphire]

that's the idea

[faint ferry]

This contains ditto

[twilit sapphire]

at least for all september

[faint ferry]

i just got a shiny one from mine yesterday

[twilit sapphire]

people do really need to read the News

[sterile cargo]

OKIDJCHJQWCHJS YES

I just caught a Ditto from a Research Box Breakthrough so its gonna take a little while

[faint ferry]

just a week at most luckily

[sterile cargo]

how many more days till October?

[twilit sapphire]

we're just into the first week of september so

you have around 2 weeks

3 weeks and a half

[sterile cargo]

oof

this gonna be hard

1 - I don't have any Pokestop near me so its gonna be hard getting the Quest "Spin 5 Pokestops or Gyms"

2 - Dragon types are just rare :/ (I need 4 more)

[faint ferry]

which quest?

[sterile cargo]

wdym which quest

[faint ferry]

or are those your field research?

[sterile cargo]

ye

field research

[faint ferry]

you should get a research task every day thats just like... catch 5 mons, use 3 berries, etc

[sterile cargo]

welp, its not that simple

[faint ferry]

not ones you pick up from stops

[sterile cargo]

i have "Catch 10 Dragon-type Pokemon" and "Spin 5 Pokestops or Gyms"

[radiant vigil]

if you don't like the quest or it's too hard you can delete

[twilit sapphire]

if they're field research you can just

delete them

[radiant vigil]

you always get one without spinning per day

[twilit sapphire]

yeh

[sterile cargo]

but u see the "Catch 10 Dragon types" has an Event Pokemon encounter soo..

[radiant vigil]

do you know what the encounter is though? you can check online what it is, to check it's actually worth chasing

[sterile cargo]

and i ran out of Pokeballs with 3 incense's

only got 15 more ultra balls

[faint ferry]

jesus

what level are you?

[radiant vigil]

add some friends and open gifts?

[faint ferry]

^

[twilit sapphire]

its probably one of the uh luminous X field research

[sterile cargo]

i bought 100 pokecoins and got an incense - used it - got another incense but from a quest - used it - bought another incense - used it

[sterile cargo]

27

Look okay i haven't played the game in a long time

[sterile cargo]

It says "Bag full"

[sterile cargo]

wha-

[twilit sapphire]

literally the only research that asks for 10 dragons was from luminous X event from 2 months ago

[faint ferry]

one thing youll really have to just spend money on is expanding your bag

[twilit sapphire]

as far as i know

that's a gible

[radiant vigil]

then delete the items you don't need, berries are a good start

[twilit sapphire]

not worth

[radiant vigil]

oh no, yeet the gible haha

[twilit sapphire]

considering gible was a community day from this year

you can get them in december

not worth keeping if that's the quest

[radiant vigil]

i think i remember, that quest is a few months old

and dragon types are now stupid rare anyway

[faint ferry]

are any even spawning?

[twilit sapphire]

sometimes, rare

also from eggs

[final tulip]

i've been seeing a few salamence spawn

[twilit sapphire]

i haven't seen any other field that asks for 10 dragons

[radiant vigil]

i did see bagon the other day, but it was windy weather boosted

eggs don't count as catch though

[faint ferry]

looks like the only dragons atm are bagon and deino

[sterile cargo]

fuck this quest

[faint ferry]

oh, and dratini

[sterile cargo]

you can get a dratini too

[faint ferry]

deino and dratini are southern hemisphere only though

[twilit sapphire]

just yeet it and if you need Gibs wait till december

[sterile cargo]

yea

[radiant vigil]

oh i got dratini, explains it

[faint ferry]

oh, and flygon

[radiant vigil]

but i defo got a bagon in southern hemi too

[faint ferry]

i havent seen any dragons in over a month though and i need 10 for shiny mew

[sterile cargo]

i get new field research everyday right?

[radiant vigil]

it was very windy lately

[faint ferry]

yes

[radiant vigil]

yeah, and it's not as hard as 10 dragon types

[faint ferry]

the daily field research are always very easy too

[sterile cargo]

then why it say visit more pokestops to find more reasearch

[faint ferry]

catch 5 mons, catch 10 mons, use 3 berries, get 5 great throws, etc

[faint ferry]

is it green or orange?

[twilit sapphire]

nothing fancy

[radiant vigil]

because you can hold up to 4 quests at a time, and if you don't have 4 i presume it shows you that

[twilit sapphire]

i WISH THE GAME LET US CHANGE THE LANGUAGE

[radiant vigil]

it's not based off your phone language?

[twilit sapphire]

yes

i don't want to change my phone language to english just for GO but pokemon in spanish fucking sucks

[radiant vigil]

ahhhh

[twilit sapphire]

when all my other games just let me set my games to english

[radiant vigil]

niantic and their qol improvements

[twilit sapphire]

don't play pokemon in spanish, translations sucks

[sterile cargo]

wtf do u mean

[hasty obsidian]

agree

[twilit sapphire]

ty vav

[faint ferry]

does the field research have a green or orange border?

[twilit sapphire]

Like this

[faint ferry]

i almost never get tasks from stops

[sterile cargo]

the spin 5 stops or gyms

it has a green one

[twilit sapphire]

that doesn't answer the question

oh okay

[sterile cargo]

ok

[faint ferry]

ive never seen a daily task that wanted me to visit stops or gyms

[sterile cargo]

im eating a homemade sandwich and tea with milk 😌

[hasty obsidian]

I ended up changing phone lang and got used to it, current spanish translations are disgusting for Pokémon unfortunately

[twilit sapphire]

i'll probably do that too but it do be kinda annoying

[radiant vigil]

from what i heard, there aren't proper spanish names for pokemon?

[twilit sapphire]

not that exactly

[hasty obsidian]

its the same pokemon names as english

[radiant vigil]

like there's french/german but not like spanish?

[twilit sapphire]

some moves are just weird named

and npc gym leaders names are awful

[hasty obsidian]

which is cool imo, but moves and characters are fucked up

[sterile cargo]

next up spicy chicken strips 😈

[radiant vigil]

literally translation i guess

[faint ferry]

11/20 psychic types caught... have weather bonus atm too

[twilit sapphire]

A BOCAJARRO

my god

[faint ferry]

even though its actually raining

[hasty obsidian]

tbh it's more that they're translated to spanish from spain

[faint ferry]

piss off castform

[hasty obsidian]

we need american spanish translation so bad

[radiant vigil]

what is a bocajarro

[sterile cargo]

WHAT IS THAT

SOUND MORE SPICY THAN MY CHICKEN STRIPS

[hasty obsidian]

superpower i think

[twilit sapphire]

yes, i think

[radiant vigil]
