Dragonstoned posted:FYI for people trying to hatch shiny regionals, there are reports coming in that they've decreased the shiny rate from 1/50 to about 1/150 over the weekend. Yeah this is super dumb and now I can't find the Silph Road thread about it so did they nuke it?

bowmore posted:how much money you spending on incubators mate So much money (I stopped hatching when they announced this event and then the 10k event I barely used any so I actually didn't really spend all that much more than usual it's just extra concentrated)

Ursine Catastrophe posted:You say that but there's someone in my local discord that persisted with 500 egg hatches* through this event so obviously it's hitting some wallets effectively enough I did 100% of my possible 7k hatched, reaching daily limits every day, and still only got a shade over 300. 500 7k eggs seems... unlikely. That said the only shiny regional I hatched was Taurus (I spent money but not an insane amount; thanks to the half distance I actually ended up doing a ton on the orange incubator just by going for long runs every day. I think I probably used 1.5 adventure boxes worth of incubators over the two weeks) HookShot fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Sep 23, 2019 |

tangy yet delightful posted:Tried to 6 man a Mewtwo at the airport yesterday and fell short by a small drat sliver. In that moment I definitely understood the desire to really have a beastly PvE lineup of mons. Even if I'd just had 6 Tyranitars instead of 2 we'd have probably beaten it. We had a group of four the other day that were sooooo loving close. I wouldn’t have bothered but one guy didn’t have any Mewtwo and I didn’t have anything else to do sooooo. I powered up and TMed all my level 35 TTars to level 40 (four of them; I already had one level forty and didn’t touch my smack down ones obviously) and double dark moves and we were literally 5 seconds away from beating it when the timer ran out. It’s the worst feeling when you see that tiny sliver of red.

I've been ok with most of the changes but honestly, the recent spawn nerf has killed my enthusiasm for this game. The whole point was to go out and catch pokemon. Now if I have to walk around the whole village and do 1.5km in an hour (I play while walking my dog in the morning) and come across a whole ten pokemon during that time, I'm just not going to play. It's straight-up not worth it.

I just got my gotcha in the mail, and it caught me a caterpie! If I play with the game closed though, to make adventure sync work/save the battery, it will not catch things for me, right? I have to have the game open and the screen on?

Froist posted:You don’t need the screen on, but the game does need to be running (can be in the background). It needs re-pairing about every hour and a quarter, but you should get a push notification when it times out. But you also get a push notification for every Pokemon it attempts to catch (whether it works or they flee), and there’s no way to separate these notifications, so you’ll probably end up turning them all off. Awesome, thanks! I had a Nidoran run away from it last night but it’s still pretty cool. As of this morning though it won’t pair anymore, and my game updated overnight, so I’m guessing it’s linked to the same issues with the go+ people are reporting.

I did six raids, caught all six, but no shinies. One of them is pretty decent with 15 Attack and Defense and 12 HP so I'm happy. gently caress me is it ever cold out now though.

Ursine Catastrophe posted:I hold onto it so that when I’m inevitably scrambling to put together a team when they announce something on Niantic-time short notice (3 hours after it starts) I’ve got it handy. It’s not like stardust costs storage space, thank god Same. When Rayquaza came back I dropped 300+k in dust on powering up a bunch of glaceons to trade to my alt so I could do it by myself. 100% worth it. I just broke the 2 million dust barrier. Plus it's nice to literally always be able to trade anyone anything if I want to.

Ursine Catastrophe posted:IMO it's in the "trioable, but that doesn't mean doable with 3 accounts" kind of territory. Machamp is gonna be the king for this, but Darkrai's high attack stat plus Machamp's already-kind-of-glass-cannon-ness means that you're looking at chewing through anywhere between 12 and 18 Machamps per raid. Duoable you're talking about a hat trick of "cloudy weather, extremely good IVs, extremely high level machamps" on top of that. According to Pokebattler it's technically duoable if you have best friends bonus, cloudy weather and 26 100% IV level 40 machamps each. And you'll have like 4 seconds to spare.
