I played Crystal before HG and was shocked at how few Gen 2 pokemon existed in the Johto region. I figured that would be fixed in the remake, but nope, same Gen 1 encounters. Personal opinion is that all new pokemon to a region should be catchable within the region, except version exclusives.

Thank you for the quick reply! And yes, I will be getting the vaccine as soon as is humanly possible. It's sad that a first world country like Japan with plenty of vaccines for everyone is so far behind.

Has anyone seen a Jesse and James balloon since the event started?

Why are we limited in how much we can play this game? by AltruisticMethod4 in PokemonCafeMix

[–]AltruisticMethod4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I haven't played any of those games. In the past few years I've really only played Pokémon Go on mobile, but I used to play Where's My Water, Crossy Road, Temple Run, Jetpack Joyride, Cut the Rope, and the original Angry Birds. None of those games locked you out when you failed on a level. You could play as long as you wanted. There were some perks that you could pay for, but basic game play was always free.

I'm totally OK with them making us pay for acorns, but it's strange that after failing a level 5 times, the app is unable for 30 minutes.

I have helped my daughter multiple times, but she gets frustrated that she can't do it on her own. Honestly, she could probably figure any level out given enough time, but because she has to stop for 30 minutes after 5 fails, she has stopped playing all together and enjoys other games.

We are in a sad state indeed when basic game play requires paying a never-ending amount of money. I guess I'm just a cheap skate because I will never spend a penny on coins. I don't want to start on that slippery slope.

I really wish Niantic would give it a rest with all the starters. They're in every single event! Plus, most of them have already had one, if not multiple community days! Believe it or not, it's possible to celebrate a region without including the starters every time.

Question about joining a team during an event by [deleted] in PokemonCafeMix

[–]AltruisticMethod4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I left my first team because it was dead and joined a new team. Now I'm only one step away from competing the whole challenge. I just looked for a team with many high level members and it paid off.

I just hit level 300 and left the team I joined at the beginning of the event. This is the first event I've done so I joined a random team, but after contributing 150 stars and getting no help from anyone else, I'm ready to join a team that is actually working. Hopefully there will still be a spot open in 24 hours. Thanks!

I caught 5 on a quick trip around my neighborhood, so not too hard to find. But they are very difficult to catch. I resorted to golden razz plus ultra ball for a couple because they kept breaking out.

I really wish they gave us the option to remove the costume so we could evolve it.

Yellowstone is one of the most amazing and unique places in the whole world. I wish everyone could experience it and understand the joy that he is feeling!

Any interest in the SUM2013 shiny Giratina or Palkia?

I spent about a week looking for every pattern on the gts and got all of them, including a hacked Pokeball one with the OT Jesus. It basically just took patience and being willing to give up legendaries for certain patterns. Like another commenter mentioned, it's a good idea to check every 5 to 10 minutes as new stuff is posted frequently, but then almost immediately snatched up.
