Oh hey, new Pokémon! Time to see what’s spawning... So all the Swablus and Ralts got replaced by Lillipups and Patrats? Great.

lol I just realized with Mewtwo in raids I still can’t complete the “Catch a legendary from a raid or research reward” quest. Mewtwo is also mythical. Welp. Niantic aren’t very good at this whole making games thing.

NTRabbit posted:The radar is filled with weird gen z Pokemons I'm scared and confused Gen 5 had some cool Pokes. Excadrill, Ferrothorn, Conkeldurr, Whimsicott, Amoongus and Chandelure all own. The trio of Tornadus/Thundurus/Landorus were very cool legendaries. Seismitoad, Zoroark and Garbodor were huge players in the TCG for a long time. Cofagrigus was notable for being the first Pokémon you couldn’t name after itself and trade due to “fag” being in its name. Gen 5 was a pretty cool generation. Easily better than Gen 6 and 7.

Meh, Flygon is fine I guess. Wish they'd do PVP-friendly Community Days every once in a while. Skarmory, Medicham, Altaria, Azumarill and Lanturn would all be awesome Community Day choices. If they really wanted to blow everyone's minds, do a Tropius day.

On a more positive note at least the weekly research rewards are trash for another month so I can keep all three slots full with World Tourism Day quests till I can be bothered to get on Discord and find someone to trade with.

HookShot posted:I've been ok with most of the changes but honestly, the recent spawn nerf has killed my enthusiasm for this game. I’m surprised the Poke-Holocaust isn’t getting more news coverage. Millions of innocent Pokémon sent to their deaths to appease wealthy land owners. Edit: There was an enormous nerf. My town of a hundred thousand people has maybe 10% of the spawns it used to all throughout the downtown area. Areas that used to spawn 10-12 Pokes now have one, or in some cases no Pokémon at all.

Welp. The spawn point genocide means I can’t participate in a Community Day while home sick in bed. Staring at a lone Makuhita taunting me. Used to get over a dozen spawns in my back yard. This will suck when winter arrives.

Ursine Catastrophe posted:Not particulary, if you're evolving it at this point-- the legacy moveset still has Gengar technically as the top of the glassiest glass cannons for it's type, but However, none of this matters in the slightest and Gengar is the best Pokemon in the game. Seriously, raids are just Pokemon gangbangs where the boss melts between 20-30 seconds depending on what everyone picks. Always use Gengar for everything regardless of type. Don’t be one of those knuckleheads who tries to use “numbers” and “strategy” in a children’s phone game. Enjoy some stylish Gengar wallpaper during this holiday season and laugh at those punk suckas wasting their time raiding for Darkrai instead of celebrating the greatest Pokemon of all time.

Are you accusing me of not having a 100% Gengar??? Shameful. Also these are essential footwear for all Pokemon Go raids. You are guaranteed to have at least 72% more fun if you wear them to any and all raid battles, especially EX raids.

Wait... what? PVP where entry is restricted based on distance walked IRL? I mean, through the summer that sounds fine I guess. I like walking down by the beach when it's warm out. But there's more than one season. *phone sex swing sales skyrocket*

DizzyBum posted:Interesting... Wonder how walking will tie into it. Battle passes have a chance to appear in the 50km weekly rewards. They take egg slots though so if you fill up on eggs or get 5km/10km eggs in the rewards and run out of slots the battle passes get bumped. You can also buy battle passes for $9.99 each, good for one battle.

Yikes. I was walking an insane amount this summer and my peak was still maybe 60-70km walked in a week. Even with a job where you're on your feet and rack up steps that way 100km is a *lot*.

seiferguy posted:My local raid group just seems really disinterested these days. It used to be easy to get people to show up, now it's a seemingly more rare occurrence The weather changing plus a series of incredibly dumb decisions by Niantic isn’t helping here either. Two months of Eevee research rewards hurt the game real bad at a time when they needed a hook to keep people playing in the rain/colder weather. It’s only going to get worse for the next several months as standing around waiting for raids gets less tolerable. For anyone who lives in a place that gets snow the rewards have to be significant to even bother. Plus they nuked sooooooo many spawns in residential areas the game is pretty much unplayable in large sections of town. In the past you’d log in at home just to see if anything cool popped up. That’s completely gone, there’s almost no incentive to open the app unless you’re going out.

Wheany posted:Freezing weather has just completely killed this game. The only pokemon that will get knocked out of gyms are ones that can be reached from a warm place or at least strictly on the way to a place. Nobody will take a 20 step detour to take a gym. Yeah, weather dipped below freezing here today so Pokemon Go will be in hibernation for the winter months. They’d be smart to develop more single player stuff you can do indoors to keep people engaged through the winter months.

The only sane way to play Pokémon Go in places with real winter is in a car. It’s kinda shocking that Niantic didn’t identify “hey this game is pretty much unplayable several months of the year in large parts of the world” as a challenge that needed to be addressed in year one. Some playable from home content to keep people hooked over the winter months would probably make them a bunch of money.

Extremely hype for Gastly Community Day! Was getting worried toward the end of the poll the bizarre Weedle cultists would cost us the best possible Community Day. Doing one in June and the other in July is a good compromise solution. Gonna require a ton of caffeine and both my devices to farm the everliving hell out of Gastly Day! I’ve already got one perfect Lick Gengar from the Gengar raid events, but you can never have too many of the best Pokemon in the entire franchise.
