I nabbed a few whilst visiting family. Prolly need to swing by at some point to nab a couple more for self-lucky purposes.

[edgy helm]

Boi what is this shit 😂😂

[lucid frigate]

Id trade a pika libre for it

But definitely no shiny baby

[dusty oracle]

My favourite holiday, Ed Sheeranmas is here.

[thorn steppe]

Why does he have shades?

[rotund copper]

Ed Sheeran

[tight owl]

Anyone have a spare shiny shinx, I have shiny seedot and some legendaries for trade.

[dusty oracle]

Trade distance is 100m.

Gotta find someone locally!

[slow warren]

Unless you live in Edmonton that's about it

[edgy helm]

I'm so so happy rn hehe my first Slaking

[gilded rune]

Genuinely my first slaking

[edgy helm]

You motherfucker-

lmao jk love him

[gilded rune]

He's almost 4220

1 cp

[edgy helm]

sheeeeeeeesh

Idk how big mine can get lmao I ran out of small candies

[grave jolt]

Does anyone else have trouble obtaining the Ed Sheeran hoodie?

I have it for my male character but not my female character?

[dusty oracle]

Yeah, it's an issue.

[grave jolt]

Also, the event box isn’t appearing in my shop.

Is that also common?

[dusty oracle]

Also yes. Hasn't massively rolled out well.

[lilac forge]

Got a legend raid in an hour if anyone wants to join respond here with ur friend code and username plz!!

[gilded rune]

#pogo_friend_codes idk

[faint badger]

im trying to get the mischief challs done and damn dude

catch 30 dark and ghost, thats so easy rn when all that spawns is water types

[slow warren]

@faint ferry we're a day away from bffs, did you wanna save it til December comm day or another special event?

[charred rapids]

My first time ever saving up 1m stardust.

[glad rover]

Very exciting sounding, and 50 Hoopa candy does sound like a lot but they did say that you can build up more with the second research set and 10,000 stardust isn’t too bad either

[faint badger]

also can have hoopa as buddy, sure its not fast but its an easy wa y

[glad rover]

Well yeah but 20 kilometers isn’t too great. Besides 5 star raids typically give out a lot of rare candy to and it mentioned that there will be some legendary raids during the event

[faint badger]

oh yeah huh its 20

nvm

[thorn steppe]

How much xp does evolution get? Is it a set amount for any evolve or does it vary etc? I have 41 that can evolve and I want to gain maximum xp XD

[faint ferry]

is there some particular event that will boost friend exp?

[faint ferry]

it should just be 1000 each plus 1000 for any new dex entries

[thorn steppe]

Damn :( so 41k xp total ish, that's not enough for me XD I need like 1mil XD

[faint ferry]

yeah, the way you do that is adding people and raising friend level

you get 50k for 3 hearts and 100k for 4, and can boost it with an egg

it takes a few months though

[dusty oracle]

3 Hearts (Ultra) has the highest yield to farm. The extra 60 days for Best is nice, but not ideal.

[slow warren]

Not that I know of, just if you wanna stack friendships for an egg

[faint ferry]

really just depends on when i can get other friends to the threshold, ill keep you posted though

[slow warren]

Sounds g

[inland ermine]

Does it have to be days or can you sit and resend gifts all day to boost the time

[analog steeple]

Nah. You can only get one interaction per day

[ivory halo]

Everyone is vibing with the shaded squirtle, while I am looking forward to seeing Oshawott again. ( Oshawott does not appear in the northern hemisphere )

[thorn steppe]

Tips on finding a Feebas please D:

[tight pilot]

Unless you have some REALLLLLLLY old 10km eggs, you basically gotta wait for next event featuring feebas 🥲😅

[slow warren]

:-: I need me a milotic

[odd glade]

Nothing about being able to transfer hoopa to Home also kek 50 candies & 10k stardust to change form

[glad rover]

Doesn’t the Jirachi research give you one? Since one of the tasks for Jirachi is to evolve one

Yeah part one of the Jirachi research gives you a Feebas encounter when you make 3 new friends

And part two wants you to evolve that Feebas

I have a Feebas that was caught in a pokéball in April of 2019 (research one) and one that hatched from a 10K egg in October of 2020. While my Milotic I have says it was hatched from a 2K egg in August of 2019. So seems that throughout 2019 Feebas was more spread around

[lucid frigate]

Think eggs from before 2020 weren’t tracked on which type they were so they show up as 2km eggs by default

Or actually, more like september-ish 2020 was when that was added

[sleek bane]

@formal bough sandefjord right? 😅 if so, ultra tomorrow 18:00? 😅

Cant tagg predator so 🙈

[formal bough]

@sleek bane Sure! Just Ping me tomorrow in case i forget…

[sleek bane]

Will do 🙂

[slow warren]

Are the event squirrels able to learn hydrocannon

Did I screw up by not waiting for comm day lol

[final tulip]

yeah they can learn hydro cannon

[slow warren]

yikes, ty though guess ill find an elite tm

[inland ermine]

Never have i ever had a wurmple evolve into cascoon

[twilit sapphire]

also the clamperl pain with that too

[inland ermine]

Why does it have to be this way

[tribal raven]

@rare stump when you do you want me to pop our bff forever gift?

[final tulip]

best friend forever forever?

[tribal raven]

Don't worry we are almost there too!

[final tulip]

yessir

[tight pilot]

Forever and ever and everrrrrrr

[tropic moat]

if I sent a sunglasses squirtle to lgpe/swsh, would it still have sunglasses?

[fossil basin]

you cant bring that sunglsses squirlt to home so

its stuck in pogo

[tropic moat]

[fossil basin]

i know

[slow warren]

For any pokemon with an elite move, such as infernape
Can you evolve it on community december day for its move blast burn? Or is that only for the select 24 mons they already announced ed

[final tulip]

i think it's just empoleon out of all the sinnoh starters that can learn its elite move this december

[slow warren]

Ah darn ty

[analog steeple]

Just the ones they mentioned yeah

[faint badger]

i hate having to complete the hoopa questline right now

catch 30 ghost and darks... okay game then give me ghost and dark types

[slow warren]

Sabyleye spotlight hour is nov 27 I think if you're lucky might be able to get it done by then

[faint badger]

when does the season end?

the first of december right?

[final tulip]

9:59 am december 1st local time

[faint badger]

yeah im on 11/16 on the hoopa tasks rn

[carmine trail]

You're a lifesaver~

[inland ermine]

I have caught a kabillion sableye. What are they good for? Legit question

[rustic nova]

why are we having funky spotlight hours at noon four days in a row? am confused

[analog steeple]

A purified sableye with low attack will be excellent for great league when it keeps Return for neutral damage. Has to be XL’d though

If it’s missing Return it’s not the best

[inland ermine]

I have so many from eggs and then from catching them as well and this does not apply to any of mine. I appreciate this info!!

I dont have the hoopa unbound quest yet?

[hasty obsidian]

It doesn't start untill the 26th

[hasty obsidian]

I still remember the first time I played against s purified sableye, didn't expect return to do so much dmg

[inland ermine]

Ohhhhh thanks!

[analog steeple]

If they nail you it can actually beat azumarill which is nuts :kekhands:

[final tulip]

bruh actually

that's insane

[charred rapids]

first raid ever..

that never happens

[analog steeple]

Might be IV dependent but if azu gets a return to the face then you can’t make it to the third play rough you need if they double shield

[winged vigil]

Anyone from Mexico has seen the Pokémon Go Special Weekend info?

[twilit sapphire]

yeah

need to buy sum waters

[winged vigil]

Same. That mega steelix energy sounds good to me

[warm dagger]

Is this rare

[final tulip]

it's pretty common thanks to the event

[warm dagger]

Yeah I was about to say

I didn’t know untill I saw it on the app

[rustic nova]

So I’ve never understood why some stat differences make a Pokémon better for PvP. Why is like, 0/12/8 the perfect stat for something, then like 15/14/12 the perfect stat for something else?

Why is 0 attack ever good for PvP? It’s all confusing

[sleek quarry]

Attack is weighted super high when cp is calculated. Mewtwo has like 300 attack, which puts it at such a high cp when maxed.This is bad for capped leagues because your level will be lower to fit the cp cap. With a zero attack iv, you can be a higher level (more health/higher defense) while staying under

[final tulip]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/849287672849104916/870749343949410324/pvp_froddo.png

oh

[analog steeple]

That’s such a cute graphic haha

[mellow cove]

I never check this channel and I feel like I popped in at just the right time since I never understood that either

[sleek quarry]

You get much more bulk with low attack

[analog steeple]

9tar already explained everything else perfectly but the different IVs for different things is tied to getting the maximum output from a Mon that’s gonna be different from each one

[sleek quarry]

Yeah, Mewtwo is a bad example. But any pvp pokemon is usually good bc it has a lower attack stat

[analog steeple]

I think snorlax is like a weird 1/14/13 or something

[sleek quarry]

I also want to add on that the 15/14/12 is a unique mirror match iv floor for Dialga. It has to do with the damage calculation not rounding up, so any one with less than those stats automatically loses the mirror

[rustic nova]

1/15/14 for GL, 0/12/15 for UL

It’s all so weird to me

Thanks for all the explanations though everyone

[sleek quarry]

Low attack ivs can make you survive something that would otherwise end you with minimal health, so it's worth the grind if you want to be super competitive

[rustic nova]

I’ve done a good bit of PvP, i usually end up using Pokémon somewhere from rank 1 to rank like 60 or something in whatever category I’m doing

[lucid frigate]

Some of my teams ive used to hit legend had pokemon with ranks in hundreds or thousands

[rustic nova]

i would do pvp on and off just for the rewards sometimes

but when i would get to the ranks where ppl only ever used like

umbreon and stunfisk and like skarmory and shit

i was like "ah i see no thank you"

[lucid frigate]

Then you’ll love Great league remix where they’re all banned

[rustic nova]

[gilded rune]

Can the shed heeran squirtle be shiny

[rustic nova]

i think so

[lucid frigate]

Glasses squirtle can be shiny

Got a good amount during squirtle cd

[analog steeple]

My proudest moment when I beat a rank 1 swampy with my rank 4 that I knew could eat 2 hydro cannons and sneak out a third

[slow warren]

How do you know exactly what rank it was?

[analog steeple]

Rank 1 swampert caps at 2499. Mine caps at 2496

[slow warren]

o gotcha

[coarse pagoda]

Hi everyone 😊👋 Can anyone tell me, if this shadow charmander is any useful for PVP?

[inland ermine]

I love those drawings that explain stuff

[clear copper]

can premium passes be used in lieu of remotes

[analog steeple]

Nope

[clear copper]

sadness

I'm too low level to invite ppl to Raids n now I'm out of remote passes ):

bruh I'm 2 coins off being able to buy some

[gilded rune]

Ik the remote passes are at least good additions but it's kinda hard to get your hands on one

Kek samw

[clear copper]

ok but like, can I just say, the 50 coin cap is so dumb

[gilded rune]

3 coins off

[clear copper]

I'm at 98 lol

[gilded rune]

Kek

[final tulip]

save for the bundle of 3 so you save some coins

[clear copper]

.... how in the 🦆

am I supposed to catch ditto

I have TWO research thingies that both say "catch a ditto"

[final tulip]

get lucky

[clear copper]

there's no method I can do? j hope a Mon I catch turns into ditto?

[dusty oracle]

Catch the pokes listed here: https://www.leekduck.com/FindDitto/

They have a small chance to be Ditto instead.

[torn arrow]

I have 5 Larvitar family members and I'm not sure which one to power up. I have:

Lv 35 12/14/10 923CP
Lv 27 15/10/15 783CP
Lv 20 12/14/15 578CP
Lv 13 4/14/5 340CP (Shadow)
Lv 8 12/7/5 370CP (Shadow) (Also Pupitar)

[final tulip]

wait until you get a hundo or a lucky

otherwise it's not worth powering either of thoseup

[torn arrow]

okay

I can't do trades as nobody around plays with me and I only have one capable device to play

I'll wait for hundo then

I assume it is better to look for a shadow hundo

[final tulip]

normal hundo is fine too

[torn arrow]

okay

[clear copper]

ur mad cute for that

[lucid frigate]

Any shadow works, its better than a hundo unless you want one for when the mega releases

[sleek quarry]

Not worth $5 imo

[final tulip]

that task allows you to change hoopa's form

so i guess it might be

[torn arrow]

or you could have done the tasks when it was easier to to them

the slowpoke one was pretty annoying for me but it didn't stop me from progressing

[torn arrow]

I should add that this doesn't apply to people who physically couldn't do the quests because of lockdown, work, etc

[lucid frigate]

Literally community day ticket rewards

[twilit sapphire]

[inland ermine]

So... how much money will it cost to change hoopas form? I got a crap hoopa anyway

[torn arrow]

50 candy and 10k dust i think

[inland ermine]

Thats not bad fr

[clear copper]

$5 or whatever is equivalent I believe

[inland ermine]

I would be more inclined if my hoopa was good at something ither than a dex fill

[clear copper]

imma j try and complete the challenges, if I don't get it oh well. I'm not wasting real money on it tho

[ivory halo]

Does anyone else vibe hard to the music at night?

[twilit sapphire]

i love GO's music, i play without sound but have the songs from youtube

[lucid frigate]

I have all the sound off

[hasty obsidian]

Same, I strongly hate that taking a pic is useful for buddy pokemon because it makes a sound

[twilit sapphire]

i once was at someone's else house and was like, let me turn off sound to take this pic

and the game was like

[ivory halo]

Greatest deal in the history of Pokémon

[coarse pagoda]

What websites do you guys use to see the rank of a pokemon for PVP or raids?

[radiant vigil]

Pokegenie mobile app or pvpoke website for pvp, raids would usually just be whatever info graphic for current raid boss cos it's dependent on that for type advantage. For raids best is 15/15/15

[flint wind]

quick question pvp wise: i finally found a team i like vigoroth (rank 2!) jellicent and alolan ninetales
who should i lead at (with about 2000 rating)

[cold saffron]

I’d say Jellicent, I use it as lead myself and it works quite well

[faint badger]

5 nights of grinding and i finally got 30 ghost types

[analog steeple]

Jelli is a great lead and viggy Smalls plays a great safe swap

[glad rover]

So once the Mischief Unbound research is done, can Hoopa finally be transferred?

The research seems pretty simple and they give you 50 Hoopa candy for the final part of it, so it seems pretty nice that they give that to you as well

[flint wind]

my new alt got ditto in 33 catches

[rotund copper]

What’s with the random spotlight hour at 12:00?

[flint wind]

idek
i appreciate the rats

[final tulip]

hoopa unbound release event

[rotund copper]

I wish they told us about this spotlight hour event ahead of time

Rattata is one of the few Pokémon I need for my Kanto Shiny Dex

[hasty obsidian]

they announced it like 4 days ago or something

[rotund copper]

Gdi

Of course there’s gonna be 4 spotlight hours this week, a week when I can’t drive around, all for shinies I need

[flint wind]

which ones

[rotund copper]

Pikachu, Sableye, and Rattta

[flint wind]

damn i really need rat

i mean electric rat

[final tulip]

rattata sableye pikachu beldum

[rotund copper]

Same

It’s the only comm day I missed

[flint wind]

ill probably grind 2 accounts for rat

[dusty oracle]

No.

They still need to update that on their end.

Which'll probably be when the research is no longer available for purchase (Start of December)

[charred rapids]

Is shiny cresselia still appearing more often in raids or is that over now?

[faint badger]

this double xp plus lucky egg good god

basically 6,000 xp if you get all the bonus

[glad rover]

Makes sense there

Already on part 2 and just need to finish the 10 field tasks

[river bobcat]

Same here

I was doubting their sanity when they announced the Ed Sheeran collab, but this song slaps and I'll be sad to see it go

[radiant vigil]

I never remember to unmute my games to listen to the new music once

[rotund copper]

Snow, but no weather boost

[analog steeple]

That’s so rude lol

[glad rover]

Something I will never see living in Florida

[clear copper]

anyone willing to help me with Moltres?

[clear copper]

Anyone have Moltres??

[final tulip]

only people in hawaii will in about 20 minutes

[clear copper]

I failed to catch post raid twice

IT TWO SHOOK EVERYTIME

[merry mirage]

hey any one doing one of the 3 birds raid?

[faint badger]

literally every time ive done a raid thats happened

easily 50+ balls and 50+ golden razz

plus great curveball most times

[faint badger]

giovanni is so difficult since i dont have any legendaries because i can never catch them in raids

can someone help? i have literally no good pokemon for this because persian kills all mine before i can even get 10 off because all my good ones attack very slow and i dont know what to do, i need to get this done by wednesday

everything online says use legendary xyz and i dont have them and i dont know

[analog steeple]

You don’t need legendaries to beat Giovanni

Do you have a machamp ?

[thorn steppe]

I think I used riachu for the quick charged attacks and then charizard and gyrados I think

[faint badger]

what order would you do those in

like persian takes out 2 of mine before i can even get one charge off

[thorn steppe]

I just did it from luck probably XD but I use my riachu for most starts as his charged attack charges quickly

What fighting pokemon you got?

[faint badger]

Machamp is my only good one

[torn arrow]

I had a UL legal machamp with cross chop to get rid of both shields and it narrowly survived persian

it wasn't shadow, was normal machamp btw

[faint badger]

i dont know anything about pvp

[torn arrow]

UL legal just means below 2500CP

all of my mons were just below 2500CP actually

[faint badger]

so use someone with a fast charging attack, then gyarados and machamp?

[torn arrow]

I had machamp deal with persian for fast charging attacks

then I had kingler as Giovanni's second mon so I used magnezone to take out kingler

[faint badger]

this is the machamp i have

[torn arrow]

you're going to want counter instead of bullet punch

you can use a fast tm to change it

[faint badger]

so i need to use my only fast tms on it?

[torn arrow]

wait how many fast tms do you have

[faint badger]

3

[torn arrow]

machamp only has 2 fast moves so you only need to spend one fast tm

[faint badger]

okay i did

[torn arrow]

and you will get counter guaranteed

dynamic punch is very strong, but cross chop is faster

do you have any other machamps

[faint badger]

nope

[torn arrow]

okay

do you have any other fighting types

that are fully evolved

[faint badger]

lucario is my only other good one

[torn arrow]

what moves does it have

also when you send pictures can you show cp as well

as that is very important

[torn arrow]

okay

so the machamp is strong enough

if lucario has power up punch as it's charge move, that would be good

as that charges very fast

[faint badger]

it has close combat

[torn arrow]

okay

how many charge tms do you have

[faint badger]

none

[torn arrow]

do you have any rare candies

[faint badger]

i think i have like 2

[torn arrow]

okay

hmmm

[faint badger]

i cant do raids

[torn arrow]

do you know the second pokemon that Giovanni has

[faint badger]

i cant afford remote passes and i cant go into the city that much

[torn arrow]

because there are 3 pokemon that it can be

[faint badger]

let me just jump in with my strongest and hope they survive persian

[torn arrow]

yeah do that

just to see his second mon

it can be either kingler, rhyperior or nidoking

[faint badger]

Rhyperior

[torn arrow]

okay

do you have any good water or grass types

[faint badger]

my salamence is 3100

[torn arrow]

as they do the most damage to rhyperior

[faint badger]

and my gyarados is perfect 3052

[torn arrow]

what moves does the gyarados know

[faint badger]

Wetarfall and Outrage

[torn arrow]

what is the fast move

wait nvm

I thought waterfall was charge move

do you have any grass types

[faint badger]

here are my top ones, not very good

[torn arrow]

are there any other water type mons

[torn arrow]

okay, do any of them have a fast move and a charge move that are both water type

[faint badger]

my vaporeon

[torn arrow]

hmmm

[faint badger]

and i have nowhere near enough eevee candy to level it up, and its 5km per candy

[torn arrow]

rhyperior is very strong and bulky, so with the mons you have, you will struggle a lot with it

especially since you don't have access to lots of pokestops I assume

[faint badger]

my closest one is a stop/gym a mile away

then beyond that i need to go into the city which is 10+ miles

[torn arrow]

damn that's far

[faint badger]

rural pokemon go 😃

[torn arrow]

can I ask what level you are?

[faint badger]

35

[torn arrow]

okay, so you are doing okay

[torn arrow]

I'm level 37 and I have a park within walking distance with a lot of stops

oh yeah I forgot to mention that rhyperior has more weaknesses than grass and water, it's just that those two types do the most damage

fighting, ground, Steel and ice moves are also supereffective

[faint badger]

the thing is this is the last thing i need on the misunderstood mischief

[edgy helm]

My 3.7k Rhyperior can get bodied by a 1k vaporeon bruh it's so dumb how water types are that strong

[faint badger]

and i really want to get it done so a i dont need to pay the 5 dollars

[torn arrow]

wait what

[torn arrow]

this information is huge

[faint badger]

because i stuck on the catch ghost/dark type for like a week

[edgy helm]

It's absolute bull lmao

[torn arrow]

did any of your mons survive Persian?

[faint badger]

my machamp barely survived

[torn arrow]

that's still good

you can get some damage against rhyperior, then use vaporeon

[edgy helm]

My recommendation is to take 2 machamps no matter what

Third is your choice

[faint badger]

i only have one

[torn arrow]

he only has one machamp

[edgy helm]

Rip

[torn arrow]

I think

[faint badger]

i have a machoke but only have 8 candies

[edgy helm]

I mean he could work what's his cp

[faint badger]

2689 for the machamp

[torn arrow]

I had kingler as my second mon, so I brought machamp, magnezone and honchkrow

[edgy helm]

Mine was 7k Persian then 13k Rhyperior I had to retry over 30 times 😂

I think eventually I got kingler and beat him the first try 😂

[torn arrow]

I can't remember the CP of gio's mons but I was level 36 when I did it

[faint badger]

so should i just keep looking for one with kingler?

aka wait for him to eventually despawn from my church and respawn

[torn arrow]

if yu have a good electric type mon, I guess

[edgy helm]

I've beat him twice lol

But yeah I'd say roll for the kingler

[torn arrow]

which shadow legendary did you not get?

[faint badger]

i have a perfect mageneton whatever the second one

[torn arrow]

okay

let's see it

[edgy helm]

Not bad, ivs?

[torn arrow]

okay

[faint badger]

perfect

[edgy helm]

oooo

[edgy helm]

[faint badger]

highkey wish i still lived in seattle for times like this

pogo is literally impossible to play when you live as far out as i do

[edgy helm]

ripppp :((

[torn arrow]

I live in england so if you live in a city or small town, you'll still be fine because everything has some historical relevance

but you could also live in the middle of nowhere which isn't good

[faint badger]

but i live 10 miles out of town

[torn arrow]

yeah ik

[faint badger]

yes middle of nowhere

[torn arrow]

is it fine if i ask why you moved from seattle

[faint badger]

parents

im 17 so

[torn arrow]

ah okay

makes sense

[faint badger]

and looks like persian is just taking out my machamp before i can even get it to half health

this is literally impossible

[torn arrow]

unlucky

[faint badger]

if you dont live downtown this game is so favored against you its annoying

[torn arrow]

yeah

it makes no sense

pokemon live in the wild, yet if you go into the wild, you don't even get grass or bug types

you just get nothing

[edgy helm]

Ayyy I do too, England is pretty good for pokestops and gyms

[torn arrow]

I live in essex, what abt you?

yoo the counties are bigger than mid-size states

[edgy helm]

Stoke, my guy I don't really like it here 😂

[glad rover]

So just got a notif that the Sableye spotlight hour is happening for me. Time to check if there’s a golden gem gremlin around where I am

[edgy helm]

Good luck lol I couldn't get my gremlin 🥲

[torn arrow]

that's unlucky

[edgy helm]

yepppp but then again the essex accent is 100x worse no offence 😂😂

[torn arrow]

that's fair

i hear some of these girls and i just think "please shut up id like to have functioning ears"

[edgy helm]

honestly it's terrible 😂

don't tell me they still call everyone "babes" 💀

[torn arrow]

some do

[edgy helm]

nOOoo

[torn arrow]

not all though

[edgy helm]

Exterminate essex women

[torn arrow]

at least im not scottish

as much as I dislike the essex accent, at least I can somewhat understand them

[edgy helm]

aye scottish accents are cool when they're undedstandable 😂

[torn arrow]

yeah

[edgy helm]

I mean I don't even have any sort of English accent so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[torn arrow]

I'm not even sure what accent I have

the fact I have a stutter doesn't make it any better

[edgy helm]

Oh damn i had a stutter when I was 7-14

luckily i grew out of it but i had some speech therapy ;-;

[torn arrow]

it got to the point where I wouldn't put my hand up even if I knew the answer

because I just knew I was going to stutter

[edgy helm]

oh damn..

I'm sorry 🥺

[torn arrow]

I'm still recovering, but it's a lot better now

but I still have a lot of trouble doing language speaking tests

[edgy helm]

ugh i hate those tests

utter cancer

[torn arrow]

we get asked the questions in the language we are studying, so during french exams I'm just so lost

most of it just sounds like utter nonsense

[edgy helm]

I'm happy to not be in school anymore lol

Or college at that matter

[torn arrow]

I still have 2 years until gcses

[edgy helm]

Damn you're only in year 9?!

[torn arrow]

yep

[edgy helm]

Well I doubt they'll be any easier, my GCSEs were in 2019¿ and they had bumped them up to a college level and trust me my year didn't do shit in classes lmao

Have you chosen your options yet?

Or is that year 10-

[torn arrow]

options is year 10

[dusty oracle]

A decent, relatively popular strategy for Giovanni is to bring a mon that'll do very little damage, and instead just focusses on clearing the shields; like FuryCutter/XScissor Scizor. Basically a move with high energy generation, and a low cost 3 bar charge move. You don't focus on keeping this mon alive, meaning you save your shields for the other two you bring, but obviously now you have a 2 shield advantage (hopefully)

Additionally, understanding how Rockets work helps. Whenever you switch in a new mon, fire off a charge move, or they fire off a charge move, the Rocket mon will have a moment where it can't attack. You can put in a few quick fast moves and then fire off a charge move to somewhat "stunlock" your opponent. The exception to this rule is at the very start, where the opposing mon will actually hit you before you can hit back, so a decent strategy is to have your bulkiest mon tank that hit, then immediately switch out to a different mon, giving you that "stun" time.

update the family of 4 who always takes my gym is here

@tight pilot that feeling when we become BFFs in the game

Wtf when was this i missed egging it I think idk ive been so bad at caring to egg lately bc im stuck on lvl 48 way over xp cap rn anyhow

[inland ermine]

i don't know!! i just turned it on and there it was with no warning! I SPECIFICALLY have not opened your gifts because of this

it was bittersweet

I couldn't help it niantic finally did it

Idk why I love him

[twilit sapphire]

[charred rapids]

does anyone know if shiny miltank even exists in the current event

doing raids snd haven’t found any evidence of someone catching it

[final tulip]

miltank's shiny is available in go

[calm remnant]

Are all the raid hour legendaries guaranteed shiny?

[final tulip]

1/20 chance

[calm remnant]

I guess the odds aren't nearly as long as I thought; I was just surprised by the two in consecutive raids.

[dusty oracle]

Last documented report is the 23rd, as far as I'm aware. It does exist, but it's at base (1 in 512) odds, so it's rare.

[clear copper]

bruh, I fr missed all balls on heatran smh

[edgy helm]

Excited for the Regis ^o^

[thorn steppe]

When does the regis raids start?

[edgy helm]

6pm local time!

[charred rapids]

Does anyone have japan ditto I could trade for on pogo

[thorn steppe]

@edgy helm thank you!:D

[crisp relic]

oxLevixo has given 1 'General Rep' to rät.

[edgy helm]

Np np!

[edgy helm]

Japan ditto? That's not a thing on pogo

[charred rapids]

Isn't their a way to get ditto from other countries?

[analog steeple]

I’ve never tried trading with a non English speaker but I’m fairly certain the ditto would just come in as a normal ditto

Like I don’t think there’s language tags when you transfer to Home

[dusty oracle]

I've traded with a German, and whilst I'm unsure whether it keeps the name in another language (his was nicknamed), it definitely doesn't give a language tag. It gives a geo tag down the bottom, but that's just as normal.

Additionally, trading is only within a very short radius, so you have to trade locally.

And besides, a Japanese Ditto will be functionally the same as a non-Japanese one.

No breeding/Masuda Method in PoGo.

i.e. useless in pogo

what does spotlight hour do

like does those only pop up

[final tulip]

yes

[low parcel]

So having beat Giovanni again just now, the game is stuck on this screen.
I missed the opportunity to beat giovanni with the shadow hooh, but I still had the quest chain. I finished that and got the super radar, and instead of hooh I got the current shadow Lugia.
I've now since finished the latest giovanni quest, and successfully beat him again. But now the screen is stuck like this, is it just ded? Should I give up hope?

[final tulip]

try restarting your game and if the balloon isn’t there talk to support about it to get your radar back

[low parcel]

Yeah it reset, I dont have my radar. How do I contact support?

[final tulip]

it’s under settings on the top right

i think so at least

[low parcel]

Thanks!

[final tulip]

make sure to send that screenshot that you took

[slow warren]

Is metagross worth evolving without his community day move? Or should I wait around and hope it comes by

[dusty oracle]

Wait for Comm Day move

100%

[slow warren]

Oof guess I'll hold em in the back for a couple years then ty

[tropic reef]

i say evo and get earthquake

much better imo

unless the comm day move is diff than what i think it is

[lucid frigate]

Definitely not worth evolving now, meteor mash is what makes metagross viable

[tropic reef]

whats the comm day for december?

[lucid frigate]

2020 (in raids and eggs) and 2021 (wild) CD mons with their CD moves

[tropic reef]

dang it

I was lied 2

[radiant vigil]

I wouldn't believe anything I hear until I comes straight from niantic

[final tulip]

i mean the speculation is fair since the gen 2 trio was skipped in the raid hours

but nothing from niantic yet

[twilit sapphire]

yeah, but unless it's said officially we can't say something

[clear copper]

Do we know who's in raids after cresselia yet or is that what u guys r speculating rn

[lucid frigate]

Hope yall pvpers star pieced your gbl end of season rewards

[flint wind]

when is it

[lucid frigate]

[flint wind]

i know its soon
only made it to rank 20

[lucid frigate]

Already happened like an hour and a half ago

[flint wind]

i need great league to constantly rotate so i can play my new team of jellicent vigoroth nine

oh ima get that now

[lucid frigate]

Its boosted like last season so even rank 20 is still worth it

At least 100k

[flint wind]

and dont you get tms too

I was broke on charge tms after the frustration event

[flint wind]

i desperately need tms but dont know best use

[flint wind]

the regis passed 2 days ago. unknown when they return

[charred rapids]

yeah i was there but couldnt get my hands on a registeel

do u know what might be the next raids?

the legendary raids

[snow kayak]

Oh ok, thanks for telling me i didnt know that

[crisp relic]

nicholas mcnuggets has given 1 'General Rep' to RB12Gaming.

[flint wind]

niantic has currently made no release of the next raid boss
some people are thinking raikou entei and suicune though

[charred rapids]

thank you! i thought that was released in the media somewhere. but thank you for that!

[radiant vigil]

Man here I'm deleting tms let me donate them lol

I don't need 100 charged tms

[flint wind]

i mean i only care for elites

whats the best elite fast moves? alr got gust hundo pidgeot smack down normie and shadow ttar and incinerate talonflame

sad

[faint badger]

attempt 11 of giovani

so my machamp has counter and dynamic punch but by the time persian takes out my machamp it is at only half health

god and i only have one day to do this why is pokemon go stressing me out lmao

[analog steeple]

@faint badger can you show us your top cp mons ?

[empty steeple]

There was a wild Snorlax. I thought I had it... But it ran away. Sad day.

[analog steeple]

Do you know the current lineup for Giovanni? Can you enter the battle to check the second Mon? @faint badger

[faint badger]

Nido

[analog steeple]

Nidoqueen ?

[faint badger]

yea

[analog steeple]

Hmmm. And machamp can take the Persian ?

If so, go machamp and after Persian is dead you swap to Felipe to do water moves on nidoqueen

[faint badger]

yeah the one i was going with is machamp, gyarados and then a perfect magneton

because i cant afford a magnetic lure

the issue is that i cant even take out persian before it takes out machamp

[hasty obsidian]

Do you have any other fighting type like Lucario/Scrafty/Hariyama?

[final tulip]

have you tried leading with something else out and switching instantly to get the cooldown

also cross chop is probably better since it breaks shields faster

[radiant vigil]

Usually for Persian I priotise a mon that can take out all shields as opposed to doing a lot of damage, because you can then abuse the window immediately after the charge attack where they don't do any damage for extra damage on your side / switch to another pokemon to start farming their charge moves

For machamp a 3 bar charge move will work better than a 2 bar one (ie dynamic punch) because you can better abuse the window where Persian doesn't attack

[fading oak]

Anyone know which raid 5* after cresselia ?

[torn arrow]

i saw a pokeminers post on Reddit and it showed that kyurem was the legendary in the rank 20 rewards, so it could be that

https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/r55y3g/gbl_season_10_pushed_claydol_currently_missing/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

[fading oak]

Kyurem !! I hope you're right !

[inland ermine]

Are raids just random right now?

1 and 3

[final tulip]

interesting

kyurem was not something i was expecting

[lucid frigate]

The kyurem is just a place holder for when they show gbl rewards through datamines

But its still likely to be coming back

They probably use it as the placeholder cause it was the legendary boss that happened to be in rotation when the gbl rework happened

[high niche]

When an egg/pokemon raid spawns on a gym, can I still fight the gym?

[sleek quarry]

Yes, as long as there isn't an active raid. A timer for an egg hatch is fair game

[high niche]

Ok thanks

[crisp relic]

Negotiator has given 1 'General Rep' to tarheels98.

[exotic yoke]

oh god no

that thing can't even be shiny

[dusty oracle]

It's the next legendary due a shiny release.

[torn arrow]

oh ok

that makes sense

[exotic yoke]

I'd prefer Reshiram and Zekrom tbh

but if it's shiny, that's good

[torn arrow]

same

[dusty oracle]

Resh and Zek are the next ones after Kyu due a shiny release I think.

I just know Kyu is the next.

The only legendaries/mythicals without a shiny release (that are currently released) are Deoxys-A,S,D, Kyurem, Reshiram, Kyurem, Tornadus-T, Thundurus-T, Landorus-T, Xerneas, Yveltal, in that order, I think.

Well. Those are the ones that have been in raids. You have Jirachi, Victini, Meloetta, Hoopa, Zarude on the research mythical front, but most of those are a while off.

[rotund copper]

Maybe Kyurem Zekrom and Reshiram will all come because Kyurem changes forms, and they’re doing all the form stuff right now

[charred rapids]

my friend just purified his Mewtwo and it's 4* now

[rotund copper]

Go Tour Johto in Febraury, nice

[tight pilot]

[dusty oracle]

Welcome to the Trainer Hat challenge.

So the second and third trainer hat challenges are for Go Tour Johto ticketholders only.

[final tulip]

guaranteed xl while trading

[slow warren]

What an announcement:o

[unique hazel]

What special pokémon would Johto tour give us? We already have shiny Celebi in go

[exotic yoke]

...yeah this is way more exciting than I thought it'd be

[exotic yoke]

lol ikr

maybe they'll rehash Mew for this one too

[unique hazel]

Is there even any johto pokémon that still is missing their Shinies in Go?

[exotic yoke]

Girafarig comes to mind

[unique hazel]

Girafarig better not be the special pokémon like Mew was for kanto tour

[exotic yoke]

I don't think it will be

[rotund copper]

That’d be awesome though

Having to catch like 2,000 Pokémon, reach level 50, catch a Pokémon 20 days in a row, etc etc all for a Girafarig

[unique hazel]

Im missing 2 pokémon from my go johto dex. Smoochum and Elekid ;-;

[tropic reef]

YES THANK YOU SO MUCH

[crisp relic]

RB12Gaming has given 1 'General Rep' to Zzetti.

i just needed bronzors

lets go

just got a shiny one from a friend not long ago

nice timing

[dusty oracle]

Hoothoot, Hoppip, Girafarig, Slugma, Corsola (Delayed), Remoraid, Mantine, Phanpy, Tyrogue, and Hitmontop

Who's ready for Hoppip community day?

[final tulip]

that’s a great march community day

[tropic reef]

when hoppip comm day

and also WHY

no shiny

[dusty oracle]

It's the only 3 stage mon left in Gen 2 that doesn't have a shiny released, hence my half-joke about it being Jan/Feb's community day.

In the build up to Kanto Tour, they released a fair few shinies before the final 5 on the day itself.

[tropic reef]

lotsa grinding due for dec community day

i needa get a shiny swablu and evo it

thats gonna be hard

i needa get all of em on 18th

[dusty oracle]

It'll be fairly common on the day.

[tropic reef]

and eevees tepig and osha on 19th

[dusty oracle]

I wouldn't worry too hard on it.

[tropic reef]

ok

[final tulip]

the only one i missed is tepig but i’m not too worried about it

[tropic reef]

i missed all of em except shinx and duskull

[final tulip]

i still need to evolve my rank 3 swablu since i forgot to evolve it on its community day

[dusty oracle]

I've done all of them this year. Debating if I want to go tryhard on Gible catching for the Dragon Catch Badge or not.

[tropic reef]

ok wait so for the comm day

will it jut be all of em popping up at once

[final tulip]

gible is definitely a target for me, only have 1 good garchomp

[tropic reef]

i have no garchomp yet lol

[final tulip]

yes that’s how it will be

[tropic reef]

ok

[dusty oracle]

Within the spotlighted hours, yes.

It's a mishmash of the featured mons.

Outside of those times, they'll still be spawning, a little bit less frequently, and with lessened shiny rates.

[final tulip]

indeed

[glad rover]

And just finished the Mischief Unbound research. Feels nice having Hoopa Unbound now

Now I just need to wait and see if it will be transferrable when the Season of Mischief ends and the Season of Heritage starts

[hasty obsidian]

I'd be more than happy with hoppip community day tbh, I'd probably enjoy it more than shinx's

[twilit sapphire]

H a t

[analog steeple]

Should’ve been in towns server. So many tears shed for the peeps who spent money hunting it in raids lol

[astral oracle]

So happy they brought Zek/Resh back. Gonna be a fun XL grind

[fickle oak]

Yo….. $5 dollars for the hoopa event…. Worth????!!!

Mischief unbound *****

[analog steeple]

I wouldn’t personally buy it

[torn arrow]

my phone said no during the gible comm day so I'm gonna tryhard on that the most as garchomp is actually good

[dusty oracle]

Looks like Archen and Tirtouga are rare spawns either for just the south, or for both hemispheres (North hasn't entered yet).

As in Rare, not "Absurdly Ridiculously Rare".

[final tulip]

rare as in sunglasses squirtle rare?

or rare as in litwick during september rare

[torn arrow]

you could find litwick in september?

[twilit sapphire]

or rare as deino during dragon week rare

[dusty oracle]

Rare as in Goomy during Luminous Y rare.

[twilit sapphire]

or rare as mime jr during the DP Release Celebration

[charred rapids]

did they shorten the spins reach again lol

i cant reach the stops i can normally touch in my bathroom

[final tulip]

interesting

[feral storm]

new raids?

[glad rover]

Weird there’s a sunny form Castform around me and it’s night time

[glad rover]

Also yeah new raids are rolling out in certain countries already for stuff like Zekrom and Reshiram. And they can be shiny this time. So I might try and get a shiny Zekrom

[twilit sapphire]

[distant cipher]

Hold up

Did they change community day's name to incense day or is that a different thing

[final tulip]

it's a different thing

[glad rover]

It’s like community day but you have to use an incense to get the benefits

And only while it’s active

[radiant vigil]

it's a lazy comm day they want you to use $$ for

[glad rover]

The small green pig is cute but don’t want to spend money on it, especially since I already got a random one over 10 years ago in Soul Silver

[radiant vigil]

it was a comm day previously so i dont actually need more of them

[glad rover]

The only benefit for me would be that they’d help fill up the catch 30 ice types I need for the Shiny Mew research

[tropic reef]

i still need a mamoswine

[glad rover]

Also heard about the Johto Tour, what exactly is going to be the benefit of that when they already gave us shiny Celebi and pretty easily since the tasks weren’t too difficult

[tropic reef]

ye lol

[muted aurora]

Hello

[rotund copper]

Maybe it’ll be some sort of Shiny Celebi with a legacy move that it can’t learn via Elite TM?

That’s the only thing I can really think of though.

I could see them doing something with Shiny Corsola or Shiny Smeargle like they did with Shiny Ditto during the Kanto Tour

[hasty obsidian]

Maybe all the sinnoh leggies

Or just shiny dunsparce

I'd be happy with shiny dunsparce

[radiant vigil]

pink shiny

[rotund copper]

One of my favorite Johto shinies right here

[radiant vigil]

Could’ve sworn I read they’ll be spawning by bodies of water

How do I get more coins?

[thorn steppe]

Gym defending and in game purchases

Alright thx

[dusty oracle]

Iirc it is now spawning?

I only got a brief look at the data collected before work.

[charred rapids]

Does anybody in here have pokeraid

[glad rover]

Is Aerodactyl spawning more for this event? I just had one appear for me and usually I never see one

[analog steeple]

I use pokegenie

[final tulip]

aerodactyl is part of the spawning pool of the mountain area

[charred rapids]

Bruh lol

[hasty obsidian]

I do but don't use it very often

[torn arrow]

had anyone else noticed a spike in evolved mons? in this hour, a hippowdon, poliwhirl, poliwrath, masquerain, aggron and hariyama were all on my radar and I even caught a golduck

[slow warren]

For the bodies of water spawn rate, does it have to be a certain size? Or just anything that shows as water on the app will have a chance to spawn

[final tulip]

i felt the same during the season of mischief but that seems wild

[torn arrow]

also my friend (who spoofs) told me he saw an aerodactyl somewhere in london

I personally have only seen an aerodactyl from research rewards

and raids

amogus x pokemon go confirmed???!????!!!

Context i tried to turn on ar and it sent me to the skybox

I need help

so i went to a gym and defeated all of its mons

Then I placed a low cp shiny shinx

and I was told I could get coins from it

but I didnt get any

[torn arrow]

you prob got knocked out too early to get coins

[high niche]

Oh yea it got knocked out like 3 minutes after I placed it

ok thanks

[torn arrow]

you need to be in the gym for long enough to get coins when you get knocked out

[hasty obsidian]

you get 1 coin for every 10 minuted defending, with a maximum received per day of 50 coins

[high niche]

how long exactly?

[high niche]

oooooooooooooooooh ok thanks

Also the name of the Komono girl who had one in the anime which is where the name for it was chosen. And why Umbreons nickname is Tamao

The first 5 Eeveelutions are named off of the first people who had them in the anime, while the other three have their names from the NPCs who you had to battle in SM in order to get the Eevee Z-Crystal

[faint badger]

i hate that where i live, if im in town during raids, no one ever does them

the most ive seen is one and i cant really afford remote passes

[slow warren]

You ever try hosting on pokegenie or raids? All my legend hosts today were filled instantly

[faint badger]

idk how to lol plus ive never gotten a legendary from a raid so i dont want to try

they all just break out on the first shake with a cruveball, great + throw and gold razz

[slow warren]

Ah it's not too hard just look up tutorial video or read the instructions it tells ya

But yeah all legends only have a base 9~% catch rate wih great curveball throws on a golden razz berry +/- depending on your medals

Just takes some persistence

[sleek bane]

On pokegenie you simply screenshot the raid, open pokegenie and go to raid. Click on host, and then you add that screenshot. You then get to set weather you have and then click done. People add u ingame, make a list and raid on! 🙂

And to make a profile simply just take a screenshot of your pogo profile, and add your code.

[glad rover]

Okay just woke up and when I loaded up the game a Vileplume was there. I already have a few but that’s really nice. The spawns for this heritage event I am already liking a lot

Also it seems like it’s been having a lot more problems with my location tracking for some reason

[inland ermine]

Not bad?

[steel parcel]

i think hitmonchan is the better of the two but you could run it as a spice pick!

[dusty oracle]

I wouldn't run shadowlee as a spice pick myself.

It's a little too frail

For those asking about it

[lucid frigate]

You haven’t seen the mega spice then

Deoxys attack and shadow sharpedo

[thorn steppe]

Can someone @ me please so I can see if I've fixed pings

[analog steeple]

@thorn steppe hi

[thorn steppe]

Got it sorted :D thank you :)

[analog steeple]

No worries !

[near fiber]

2nd Try!!

[flint wind]

grats!

[dusty oracle]

Just don't purify full stop, unless your name is Sableye.

[radiant vigil]

Ah remember when I used to run uphill for a wild dragonite yes

[dusty oracle]

Tbf, I'd still run for a wild Dragonite.

20 candies with a Pinap. Not to be sniffed at.

[radiant vigil]

Dratini comm day has kinda killed that excitement for me haha

[astral oracle]

Yeah before it was understood how strong shadows were I made a few... mistakes

[radiant vigil]

At least they're hundos rn

[twilit sapphire]

the only purified i don't find guilt is a shadow snorlax 98

i really wanted a hundo snorlax

[lucid frigate]

Ran across the beach for one… and many other people did

[twilit sapphire]

let me tell you a story back at 2018

it was Larvitar's CommDay

we were in the big park that happens that is also the biggest nest in the city, it was the must-go place for commdays (still is)

during the final hour of that CommDay, it appeared a hundo Larvitar at the entrance of the park

there are some videos showing like, hundreds of dudes running to the entrance for that larvitar

[radiant vigil]

stampede

[twilit sapphire]

in the park, leaving the normal peeps confused asf

it was hilarious, but im trying to find the video

[radiant vigil]

I can imagine this sort of war cry happening

[twilit sapphire]

i can't find the damn v ideo but

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AomUt4e5v9g

this is just a small part of how many people were there

[radiant vigil]

[twilit sapphire]

that place is an EX gym so everyone was raiding there in that moment i miss ex raids

kinda

[radiant vigil]

[flint wind]

wait hundos are universal?

[twilit sapphire]

yes, if you're level 30 at least

if you're level 30 or above, any mon you or your friends above 30 will be the same

[flint wind]

ive been playing for 23 days less than a year and i didnt know that

nobody plays pogo in my community anyway

[twilit sapphire]

so if you being above lvl 30, and find a hundo pikachu it's a hundo for everyone

our hundo

[flint wind]

i could have gave some trash hundos like oddish

[twilit sapphire]

same

[flint wind]

also do you think i can get 2.2 m xp in 23 days? wanna make it to lvl 40 before my 1 year anniversary

[twilit sapphire]

with well timed friendship level ups and raids, yeah

[faint badger]

oddish is great

[flint wind]

not the most useful

my only useful hundos are
shadow machamp
hundo machamp normie
houndoom
sharpedo (once mega releases)
venusaur
magnezone is iffy
shundo celebi is debatable

[faint badger]

really my only good hundo is my gengar

[lucid frigate]

Magnezone iffy?

[flint wind]

its alr past ultra league cap

[torn arrow]

I have a hundo clamperl and two hundo scrafties

[lucid frigate]

Use it for ml premier classic

[flint wind]

oh?

[torn arrow]

and that's it i think

[flint wind]

its useful there?

well then time to drain 160k dust

[twilit sapphire]

imagine having good mons to use stardust

[flint wind]

i legit have tags sorting pve and pvp invesments by dust to power up

[twilit sapphire]

all my legendaries are either 67% or below 90 ivs

[flint wind]

my only hundo is a groudon on my alt

my closest thing is 96 shiny raikou on main

[torn arrow]

wait no I actually also have a hundo dedenne, gothitelle, meditite, a-meowth, and alakazam

are any of those somewhat useful in pve or pvp

[flint wind]

pvp if you are under lvl 40 meditite is useful

ala is budget mewtwo

[torn arrow]

okay

[flint wind]

medicham is op

in gl

[torn arrow]

I kinda neglected the alakazam because it was so slow in attacking

I use clefable lead with registeel and scrafty in the back in gl

I'm very low in elo so I'm not that good

[flint wind]

clef is a bit slow of an attacker, not the biggest fan of it
i personally use jellicent vigoroth anine

i caught the rank 2 vigoroth on top of a mountain

[torn arrow]

yeah clef is pretty slow but it is a solid tank against anything that is super effective

[flint wind]

i personally prefer hypno tbh but clef would probably work in that team

[torn arrow]

and charm does do a lot of damage

I've heard vigoroth is absolutely busted

might use it

[flint wind]

its great for a safe swap
counter is amazing and body slam is consistent and neutral

[torn arrow]

wait when you said "anine" do you mean arcanine or alolan ninetales

[flint wind]

alolan ninetales (powder snow dazzling gleam weather ball version)

[torn arrow]

oh ok

I have had exactly zero alolan vulpix

[flint wind]

oh pain
they might come back this season

[torn arrow]

so it will be hard to make an a-ninetales

[radiant vigil]

[hasty obsidian]

now put on the green mask

and you're a shiny deino

[faint badger]

does anyone know if exeggute spawn from mossy lures?

[twilit sapphire]

it should, at least

i pop up one 1 month ago and spawned one so i think it's still there

[stuck merlin]

@snow oak

Hey I don't know what happened

But yeah just use my code

[frozen heron]

Found this while walking
