Do you really think they're going to do megas after Game Freak gave them the axe this upcoming gen?

They axed them in s/m and then brought them right back in us/um. Watch them do the same drat thing to move units late cycle, just like they've already done.

They didnt axe them in SuMo, its built right there in the game on the last island, you could download the rest off of wifi via codes

I wonder why they didn't overlay the existing spawn points with the new spawns and just call it a day? There would have been no complaints about that. No missing spawns and new spawns, everyone wins.

Goddammit, nothing like throwing tons of good balls at darkrai and not catching the bastard during the first raid, then the second raid the DPS died at the halfway point and I'm pretty sure it was from idiots bailing to start a new group. Our main group wasn't available, so by the time my small group realized what happened it was too late.

Oh well, lesson learned, Discord group is the only one to trust.

Yeah I did two different 5 man groups with random and it was a disaster both times. I don't know if everyone afks or what.

Of course, I didn't show up to raid hour on time and did an egg that hatched at 615 and no one was there which is super unusual due to air support being so common. Grr

Yeah, there were 14 of us. It was miserable watching the damage fall off and not know why until it was too late.

Nah, Darkrai specifically is tagged as Mythical instead of Legendary. Deoxys is the only other thing (I think) that's been in T5 that's had that same tag, but all of the special research stuff (Mew, Jirachi, Celebi) are in the same untradable boat. I don't think it's malicious per se, they made mythicals untradable at a point where Mew/etc were the only ones and (presumably) didn't want people rolling alts and trading themselves mews...but when they pulled over the rest of the mainline games data in terms of what was Mythical vs. not, it's had probably-not-actually-intended consequences.

With Niantic, never attribute malice to incompetence*

Somewhat normal after 6mo of use, expected after 2y. Also expected immediately after charging it sub-zero.

Some players are adventurous enough to replace the battery.

Thank you! I was thinking to try to replace the battery first, so I may as well do that. I've had it roughly a year and used it constantly, so it's worth trying to fix first.

It requires non-zero soldering but the cell type is pretty common.

I'd just carve the casing to fit in a battery of at least 1wh. The default is 0.15wh.

Mind you the display is glued on in some of them and requires gentle stretching of the adhesive.

EDIT: The battery inside by default is a "40mAh" 401120.

Awesome, thanks!

I figured it would need soldering but that's fine. Did micromin work for years and it's relaxing as hell for me.

I'm tempted to just make a new case from scratch as a fun little project at this point because why not.

So I just started this thing last week. Is there some secret to not running out of balls all the time?

My whole thing to fix this was to dumpster any berry that wasn't a golden razz, pineapple, or silver pineapp. Spin all stops, always, never stop spinning.

If you are rural then it's a constant pain in the rear end, if you're in a city it becomes not a worry over time. Bag upgrades help with this.

Yeah, I'm in a city and generally hit 10 in a morning walk, but that doesn't really net very many balls. My bag's at like half capacity. I guess it's probably more stops. Is more friends useful? My niece and nephew got me into this, but they're apparently not great and sending gifts back.

More friends will def help, hitting more stops too. Sometimes the rng hates you and won't give balls, other times they just get shat at you all the time.

Hoarding balls is easier after you have played a while. It was awful at launch and I quit within a month because of it. They've made it a lot better, which prompted a lot of people to return the last couple of years. It's a good time to start playing!
