Mewtwo with Shadow Ball is really good and I'm glad more players will grab that, but why the heck did we not get Arceus???

The Azure Flute is gonna be a reward for a 20 part research quest line (there's gonna be things like catch 15 dittos, use 600 berries, etc) and then when you get the flute you can use it at a gym when a raid is up and it will have a 10% chance to change the raid Pokemon into an Arceus. If you fail to catch him or the flute doesn't change the Pokemon (it's consumed on use), don't worry, the quest line is repeatable!

Today I learned that research reward Pokemon can run away. I thought they were a guaranteed catch. Thankfully it was only a Doduo.

Pokemon being able to run away in general is a bad mechanic I wish wasn't in the game

I just had a caterpie break out of a razz berry normal curve ball thrown ultra ball... then run right after.

:psyduck:

There are definitely Pokemon I'm convinced are programed to run no matter what, and it would be real nice if they would just do it on the first ball and not on the like, 10th

Today I had at least 7 Pokemon flee from me, several of them after 5+ Pokeballs had been wasted. Like just automatically take out half my Pokeballs and don't bother with the Pokemon spawning if you're gonna pull that poo poo game

Also I hatched 3 gifted eggs in a row. All of them Alolan Grimer :negative: I am good on Grimers game, my cup runneth over with Grimers

So since IVs are apparently not nearly as important in GO (I'm not sure if the stars relate to the IVs or if they are also a seperate thing) and combat power generally seems to be more important, between these two it'd probably better to go with the non-3 star one? I think someone here mentioned it was really only edge cases where a player would want the IVs over the CP:




I know this stuff isn't that big of a deal in PoGo but I like having buff bois

Amoonguss is largely a dex filler, so either one would really work. Very bulk focused, and no STAB fast move. Roserade will be a better Grass and Poison attacker than it.

Oh I just grabbed him since he was what I was looking at, I wasn't asking for him specifically just this kind of IV vs CP situation

Takeaways:
- Regirock, Regice, and Registeel in raids for one weekend, Nov 1 to Nov 4th
- That $8 special pass is for Regigigas research, but it'll be in EX raids in November anyways so don't FOMO it
- It also comes with 10 "free" raid passes but it's not "10 premium passes", it's "10 passes as long as you're using all of them the day of the event on Regis"
- Regigigas in EX raids in November means Shadow Ball Mewtwo in EX raids for as little as 2 and as many as 5 more weeks, so act fast on those I guess?
- Shiny Skarmory, Shiny Regirock, Shiny Regice, Shiny Registeel

Is this the first time they've done this special pass thing that turns a raid pokemon into a research reward? Because I'll be honest: I would gladly pay $8 for whatever legendary is in the raids at the moment to turn them into a research reward. No one does the raids around here and I usually go out and do my stuff early anyway when raids aren't even happening. Most raids I'm at work for. There's several gyms nearby but literally no one ever raids at them. I would totally pay eight bucks to make them a research reward so I could have a shot at them.

This is the first time they've done something quite like this (closest equivalent is the early Celebi/Jirachi research Go Fest attendees got).

However, the special research will probably require you to raid the other Regis to get Gigas (thus why the ticket also gives you 10 free passes). So, uh, be wary of that.

Ah well that sucks, nevermind then

So uh wait, why do you need stones for these guys? I assumed all this time stones were for old Pokemon that got a newer evolution later or something. That's not the case I guess? What's the point of doing this

Since I hit 40, I’ve been opening the game like once every couple weeks. Certainly haven’t kept up with this thread either.

What the hell happened to the spawn points? I live in a suburban area and had 5-8 spawn points right on my house, and I’ve seen nothing the past few times I’ve opened the game.

They changed a large amount of spawn points and people who haven't had spawns around their house are now getting tons but on the other hand there's a lot of people who used to have tons of spawns around their house that are now seeing one or two and sometimes none at all.

My entire area seems to be largely unchanged except instead of 2 or 3 Pokemon around my house sometimes I'll have like 5.
