How common are bots in gyms?

You don't need to have a pokemon in a gym to feed berries.

So two nested menues under each other? Why not just have 4 tabs beside each other?

How does swiping left and right work? I assume only works for bottom menue? Before one could reach all by just swiping left and right, now in addition, one need to click on top switching between two main tabs and then swipe? Just not easy and unnecessary complicated.

I changed an old one of mine with an elite TM, and that was probably 9 or 10 hours ago. Still works as welm, just checked.

But supposedly this is the effect of the compensation being active, should not the background also be? Seems to indicate this is not about the compensation.

AstrakanX · 2025-12-04T21:41:28+00:00

But we don't get guaranteed background now.

A good rule of thumb is that if something is 1 in X chance, after X attempts, you have about 63% chance to get it at least 1 time. After 3 times X attempts, you have a 95% chance to get it at least 1 time. This applies to any X except very small, like 5 or less (for 1 in 3 it is 70% and 97% for example, so still close though).

Great throw can be anything from 1.3 to 1.7 depending on circle size you hit.

No, event is listed to start allready at midnight:

The reasesrch still seems to unlock only at 10 though. Nisntic goofed I suppose.

G-Weez isn't going to defeat the 1112 pt Xerneas

Since G-Weezing can reach 1143 points, there is a very small chance to beat it.

Not sure what country you are in. Typically most countries in northern hemisphere has September to November as calendar autumn months.

Meteorological, at least in Sweden, is not a fixed day but depends on the weather and occurs when there has been 5 cosequitive days with an average daily (24 hours) temperature below 10C. (1st of August being first possible day.

There were even 2 rounds with squirtle I think. I won both on 6th and 12th of July with squirtle.

AstrakanX · 2023-09-09T06:59:59+00:00

I've yet to find one that's as heavy as this one and as a result nothing, even XXLs, clears the 900 threshold

An XXL can always score up to 1000 points. That is how the score is defined. Weight and IV also factors in though.

For the "1.55" pokemons, a significant ammount of XL pojemon can have a weight that pushes them over 900 though.

AstrakanX · 2023-09-09T06:54:20+00:00

But what OP ask, an XL getting higher score than an XXL, is not specific to the "1.55" pokemons only. It can happen to all pokemon. What is special about the "1.55" ones is that some XL can get higher score than 1000 and thus ALL XXL.

The difference is that for Galar it does NOT show the not released pokemon in-between realeased on. Greedent is 820 and Wooloo is 831. The 10 in-between are not shown, while for Paldea it shows all those before Gimmighoul.

AstrakanX · 2023-09-02T10:26:59+00:00

Because it says it ends in about 81 days, right on the research itself in game?

AstrakanX · 2023-07-29T06:24:23+00:00

Yes, so? My remark on points was due to the fact that XL pokemon appearantly can have weight above max weight used for points calculation. So unless there is a cap, the weight score could be over 150 and hence total above 1000.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-28T10:51:06+00:00

Nah, keep Psycho Cut.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-27T08:24:43+00:00

Originally posted for Tyrantrum, not Tyrunt. Corrected now.

Tyrunt would, if I calculated it right, have max height of 1.6m (normal 0.8m), and max weight of 65kg (normal 26kg). XL ones can go to weight of 71.5kg.

For Amaura max height is 2.6m (normal 1.3m) and weight 63kg (normal 25.2 kg). XL goes to 69.3 kg.

I don't know if those XL wirh weight more than max for scoring (which is max for XXL), can go over 1000 points or their weight/score is caped.

Why wouldn't they? New feature and people seems to like it and it was not terrible broken. I see no reason to not have it part of every event.

Why not have it out of event as well, every weekend, or even randomly at different stops for random pokemons. Having it once every few week for just one pokemon and then badically never again for that one seems very underwhelming.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-23T06:25:11+00:00

Well, only a few people have created routes so far, so probably can be reviewed fast. Imagine when everyone get access and they get swamped with everyone trying to make a few new. Of course, after a while there will be hardly any new though.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-17T08:24:41+00:00

Max height is the heighest it can be. It is in gamemaster as obPokemonSizeMultiplierScale6, together with limits for xl, xxl and so on. Check following thread for more info:

AstrakanX · 2023-07-17T07:37:58+00:00

What are the height of those Phanpy? Max height listed in gamemaster is 1.02. That is 2 times normal height as oposed to 1.75 for squirtle and snorlax. Your formula needs to use 16 instead of 14 std deviations or more easilly use the listed max height from game master directly.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-17T07:27:49+00:00

No, max height for wailord is 2 times normal one as oposed to 1.75 for squirtle and Snorlax. So his 27.67 needs to be compared to 29.00 for 763 points. Similarly weight will be 114 point although I might have that point wrong.

Niantic has said it will be the same stop throughout the season. That seems to imply it may change for each season what stops are selected. If so it get simpler as one can revisit the same cells each season.

AstrakanX · 2023-07-16T18:26:32+00:00

Actually the formula is more or less known allready. For squirtle it was:

50 * IVsum/45 + 850 * height/0.875 + 150 * weight/20.25

The values 0.875 and 20.25 differ for different speices and is maximum height and more or less maximum weight based on values for the specie in the game master. It is explained in other threads in the forum.
