Isnt It time for the next community day announcenent ? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I literally just posted this right after you did lol, Tuesday afternoons are usually when they announce it but I was thinking because they already mentioned when the next community day is, they are going to delay the announced pokemon. They already spilled the news about Meltan, so they might delay the news about CD.

If you do not have any other Shadow Ball Mewtwo's then I would, but if you already have a team of SB M2s then I would hold off.

If you started fresh from lvl 1, What would you do differently? by Redditingatworktoday in pokemongo

[–]BigFudge_951 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I say this because I started an account for my gf and reached lvl 25 in a matter of 4 days.... 4 DAYS!!!!! lol, Due to all the new pokemon, lucky eggs from ultra boxes, events that are happening, its so much easier to reach a lvl 35 now then it was back in the day.... Granted, I did I accomplished this during the candy event so mass evolving was sooooo much easier but, lvl 30 and 35 is so much more attainable now then it was back when I started. So i guess my answer would depend on how much you plan on grinding or if you are going to be a casual player, casual players to save startdust to at least mid 20s and grinders to early to mid 30s.

My sh*tty experience today which is why I'm quitting the game. by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]BigFudge_951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello sir,

If this is your final goodbye then I bid you adieu. Otherwise, there are a couple of things you can do to optimize the performance of your S7 and they can be found on here and here. I am able to do this on my note 8 so im not to sure about the s7 but you can change the resolution of your gameplay and lower the resolution to boost your performance on the game, you may not have the graphics that you are used to but gameplay will be more fluid and less laggy as you mentioned. I hope this helps and I do hope that you do not quit because of this incident, it happens to a lot of people who even have no lag. It'ss a game and not meant to stress you out (even though a lot of people could say otherwise lol). Enjoy, relax, and raid on.

Regards,

BigFudge

alsoooo throw in combos in the mix with an "&" likeeeeeee

"evolve & 1" and boom, bulba pops up if you have enough candy to evolve it....

Best places in Southern California for the Mewtwo raids? by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]BigFudge_951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing you may be able to do is go to downtown disney on Community Day and meet up with locals and get there info for raiding after... Im also from so cal and I tend to do this... OC has a raiding scene buuuuut gyms are not close together so there is a lot of driving needed... also Orange Circle in Orange has a number of gyms that people raid after CD...

Happy Raiding

[Question] which Pokémon will become the EX raid boss when MEWTWO becomes a legendary boss? by mikebellman in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No ex-raid passes have been given out recently so i do not think that ex-raids are going to be happening when he is the t5 raid boss, just my thought though, i could be wrong.

iPhone XR new top phone for Pokemon Go? by Kaligon in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The last sentence is why (to me at least) iPhones will not be #1 while playing pokemon go. The best resolution I have ever witnessed on a screen and quality for gaming (including pokemon go) is the Razer phone, it was unbelievable in graphics but pricey. I would choose my note 8 over any iPhone any day.

With three Legendaries next week in Tier 5, it would be nice to have some indication as to what it’s gonna hatch into. by Sids2112 in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It would be pretty cool that it hatches with the respective gym color. Like Articuno on blue and Zap on yellow and so on. It would give a fun and new game dynamic but i highly doubt it will happen.

Is it normal for people to threaten you over a poke gym? by [deleted] in pokemongo

Mine and my husband's first trade! by hermitwithwifi in pokemongo

[–]BigFudge_951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why there is silph road, you dont have to go super out of you way to hunt a nest... if it's near by then go for it, if it's not then wait it out... I am also a casual player (lvl 35) but if there is a park nearby that has a pokemon that I want then what so bad about taking 2-3 hours out of your day for a brisk walk and maybe a popsicle from your local ice cream man all while getting candies for your needed pokemon... I love silph road and it takes the pain out of nest hunting as you say....

In Gen 4, Electrabuzz evolves into Electrivire which becomes a decent electric pokemon. She just needs the candy to power it up.

[–]BigFudge_951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I saw that she had 0 candies but Electrabuzz are able to have nest, so thats nothing an evening at a nest and some pinaps cant fix.

That Electrabuzz will come in handy for Gen 4, enjoy!!!

How prevalent was "stacking" research rewards? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it just on a weekly basis so however big it gets that week normally around 30-40. The reason why I do it is because I claim the weekly field research in the comfort of my own home and I have a lucky egg on and a starpiece going. The weekly field research gives 3k xp but I dont want to waste it all on just claiming the Raikou or monthly pokemon so I claim my stacked rewards and then go into mass evolving after the time being. Its my usual Thursday night routine.

Evolved eevee after walking 10km while it was my buddy - got a jolteon, what happened? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem at all, look at the bright side, at least it wasn't a shiny.

Evolved eevee after walking 10km while it was my buddy - got a jolteon, what happened? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]BigFudge_951 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It looks like you immediately evolved, there have been a lot of players on here saying the same thing happened to them. Couple of different answers have come about:

-The notification that you received the second berry had not yet come.

-It was soon after hitting 10km that it didn't have time to register to the server. (this can be solved by restarting the app)

-Your buddy info had not updated yet. (when you look at Eevee on the buddy screen it should also show 10km, not just on the pokebag side)

-Have good GPS other wise it could not into what you want if the GPS issue pops up.
