alienboyva Posted May 16 Author Share Posted May 16 (edited) IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!! So, the blog post says there will be future opportunities to acquire more. Hopefully, this doesn't mean paid, because I feel like that could ruin the game, no matter how high they price it. I wouldn't be surprised if Niantic has already been thinking how much $$$ they could make off of Master Balls. Please, Niantic DON'T be $h1tty and start charging for Master Balls.

EH_STEVE Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Evolved and maxed out my hundo Axew, and caught a Galarian Articuno. Ran into a player (he saw my lure) I haven't seen in years, we were Lucky Friends, swapped Galarian Articuno's, got a 93% from him. Art_de_Cat 1 Quote Link to comment
Shadow118 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Spent all day in a Poké Genie lobby yesterday and still ended up not catching Uxie because it wouldn’t stay in the damn ball - and having a Uxie from Japan would’ve been nice, too And the previous day, same with Azelf… AUGH that’s extremely annoying- that’s two Remote Raid passes wasted Used up most of my Silver/Gold berries, too… Quote Link to comment
Shadow118 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Got an increase in range for thus pretty neat, actually Should be useful for Community Days - especially if one can’t go out.. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted June 28 Author Share Posted June 28 (edited) The new Team Up feature in Campfire that's accessible from PKMN GO is great (I wish Campfire was fully accessible form PKMN GO)! Though, you got to love how Niantic increased the price for remote raid pass, because they didn't like how people were always using them, since it's not how "they wanted people to play the game". Now they come out with this Team Up feature, which pretty much relies on remote raid passes. Yeah, we know the REAL reason why you increased the price of remote raid passes, Niantic! $$$$ ...It's still kind of shitty considering how much they make off this game. Anyway, with this new Team Up feature hopefully I can finally get enough people together to get a Mewtwo if/when he comes back and finally complete my KantoDex. ------------------------------------------------------- On 6/27/2023 at 1:05 PM, Shadow118 said: Got an increase in range for thus pretty neat, actually Should be useful for Community Days - especially if one can’t go out.. Tweet won't load/deleted. I assume you're talking about the increased spawn radius? If so... Classic Niantic... Of course people are pissed.

I think i pulled it from Leekduck - did they delete it? yeah, i saw that - was going to post and update here, but i completely forgot and slipped my mind And yeah, people are from the tweets i've seen, including myself even though i hadn't posted about it myself.... Niantic really doesn't want to improve and make the game better, do they? Or care about what the community thinks, either.... even though from what i heard niantics pr team told partners that it was gong to be a permanent thing...? I think something like that, i forget the tweet i saw about that Because this feature would be so good to have overall as a good Quality of Life inclusion - especially for Community Days.Spotlight Hours and events And especially for those that can't or rarely can go out during some timeframes (including myself most of the time) Though there might be people lucky (including myself) that still have the increased radius for the time being - hell, i got another Shiny Buneary out of it recently, too I swear, if they end up somehow monetizing this, people are probably going to be even more pissed between this and the Remote Raid stuff from before alienboyva 1 Quote Link to comment

This is the reason main reason they put a limit on how many raid passes you can buy/use a day. They ain't collecting any of that map data from you sitting at home remote raiding and catching a bunch of PKMN with an increased spawn radius. Edited June 28 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
Shadow118 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Well, i got extremely lucky this morning Art_de_Cat and alienboyva 2 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted June 30 Author Share Posted June 30 (edited) OOF!... 🔗https://nianticlabs.com/news/organizational-update?hl=en - Sad that Niantic has to shut down their LA studio, with 230 people losing their jobs. - Too bad that NBA game is being shut down like with that Harry Potter game (I never got how the NBA fit as real-world AR game) and that production is stopping on the upcoming Marvel: World of Heroes (Could have been big given how popular Marvel is nowdayws). - Nice to see PKMN GO won't be affected, but that's their main money maker, so it makes sense. - Also, glad that more recent games like Pikmin Bloom, Peridot and the upcoming Monster Hunter Now (Sept. 2023) won't be affected as well. Even though it wasn't mentioned, I assume this includes Ingress Prime as well, since PKMN GO would have never been a thing without Ingress. BTW, Monster Hunter Now looks like it could be really cool, if done right. I mean, it makes the most sense for a real-world AR game, next to Pokémon. Hopefully there's more to it than just "Raid Battles" and it's monetized "fairly" like PKMN GO/Pikmin Bloom. Edited June 30 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment

Shadow118 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 (edited) I don’t think I’ve posted my whole collection, but pretty much all the shinies I’ve gotten in Go so far Excluding ones I’ve transferred over to other games/Home Only strange thing is, I’ve always sworn i had quite a few more Shiny Beldum from that one Community Day… Not sure if something happened or if I’m just completely misremembering considering how long ago it was… though, i usually take screenshots, can’t find any from that time yet… Uploaded to Youtube because I’m certain that the file size would be too big for here Edited July 4 by Shadow118 Quote Link to comment
Shadow118 Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Looks like the Shiny Mew Research is returning for those that didn’t get it or missed out from the Kanto Tour Looks like those who bought the ticket can’t but this one, though Considering I didn’t but the ticket and missed out on it, really need to buy this when it becomes available Quote Link to comment

Although it's in th egg pool for 2, 5, and 10 km eggs they made a new rarity tier just for it. I've hatched 2 out of about 60 eggs between accounts. Quote Link to comment

That must be extremely rare then… guess RNG was on my side yesterday considering i got both a Larvesta and Shiny Bellsprout from Eggs in the same day Well, at least i got one for the Dex… might be awhile until i get enough candy to evolve it- can always set it as my buddy, though might take awhile..

Shadow118 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Poliwag for the next regular Community Day Not the most exciting pokemon, but i don’t have any Shinies for Poliwag or the line, so I’m fine with the choice and looking forward to it 🥰 Granted, not every CD can be for Rarer Pokemon anyway, so not a big deal to me Quote Link to comment
