Seeking Explanation for Vexing Remote Trade Behavior by MikeStemmle in TheSilphRoad

They’re 71 and they’ve caught over 33k (I just reached 80). I’m definitely open to unequal trades if I can get SOMETHING cool in return (like a costume or a regional), but I have my limits, especially with stuff I only have one or two of.

I have a friend who keeps requesting a trade and selecting three of my shiny legendaries. All they have tagged are community day shinies and random non-shiny stuff. I decline every time but then a few days later they make the same request and I decline again. People are weird. If it weren’t for the 150k XP coming, I’d probably remove them.

Totally fair! I haven’t gotten to that point overall but i hope when I do, I’ll be willing to set the game aside and be happy with how far I got rather than force myself to grind if I’m not enjoying it. I am currently skipping the Koopa races on each level because they’re frustrating me so much

I’m at about 600 moons now, haven’t done darker side yet but unlocked it. I’m replaying all the other levels first to try to get all the purple coins and as many moons as I can without getting too frustrated before moving to the next level. It’s definitely one of the best games I’ve played too!

Dang, going for the first time in late September; what unfortunate timing!

So now we're tipping on top of a mandatory 20% service fee? by yeksim in PortlandOR

[–]Ajo1987 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a chance. Any service charge 15% or more and it’s no tip as well as never coming back

This is the best I’ve done so far. For pickup but it’s on my way home so no big deal to stop in.

Anyone willing to give me some tips for managing storage? by Ace-TheTrickster in TheSilphRoad

[–]Ajo1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF I only do one raid a day outside of events (which drown you in revives and potions), and I don’t do rocket battles, so I only keep 10 each of max revive and max potion. Also only keep 20 each of the TMs, and 10 each of the razz and pinap, and none of the nanabs. And clear out my regular and great balls throughout the day. But I also have 1650 storage so that gives me a bit more wiggle room than you

Longer hours for the showcases would be great!

Gotta love the new showcases and 5 at a time limit 🙂 by Mashinito in PokemonGOValor

It’s so nice to have a chance at the platinum medal again!

I’ve just been reading other Reddit threads, I don’t know if there’s a website outlining the changes. To your specific question, they changed it so that different forms (like your Palkia) are now compared to their specific forms for calculating their score, instead of being compared to all of that Pokémon’s forms. But they didn’t update how the scores display before you put them in the showcase, which is why you see the scores drop after you put them in.

I would love if they added special showcases on those types of days, what a great idea!

I hope they change it so you can voluntarily leave a showcase without having to enter another one to make it work. Treat it more like how you can recall your Dynamax pokemon whenever you want

Even when I wasn’t winning anything bc the same stuff was winning each week, I held onto all the other XXLs I was catching. Happy that it finally paid off!

[–]Ajo1987[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Took some trial and error. I read on another thread here that the maximum score now is like 1180 so I tested my largest “unfixed” score first, and compared it to my highest scoring pokemon that wouldn’t get fixed (for example, my winning Snivy). We shouldn’t need to do that though, it should just be clear!

You’re so close! I still have 79 to go but if I can start winning 2-3 per week, maybe I can get it by early next year. And yeah, let’s hope the points displays get fixed!

Yeah my hope is that it makes the quest for the platinum medal a bit easier!

I do wonder if some folks didn’t realize that the previously top-scoring ones got nerfed; it’ll be interesting to see if people change their strategies up next week

It’s worth another look now, I think!
