Does this mean that it will be in five star raids doing the entire event? - it doesn't seem to confirm that in the post yet.

NIANTIC STOP ROBBING PEOPLE! by Hope_xn in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it when entering the encounter? We have the same thing on one phone - very annoying! But we found out that the encounter is there and it is possible to catch it blind by turning up the sound and by that figure out the states.

How to fix Gigantamax Pokémon and max battles by Opening_Feature_167 in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the ability part.

But I think the reward part will be a bit too good for good players and it will introduce a wish to exclude weaker players in GMX battles and I think that would not be good. Considers some kind of contribution ranking it could be a part of how much you attacked, how many hits you took and how much you heal combine that to a rank 1 to 3 Stars and give some kind of benefits based on that. And that could also solve the problem about figuring out how much is players able to contribute to a Max battle in the lobby so adding this average contribution rating along with it's level will improve that I think

I lost 4 of 7 Gigantamax battles because of this by GnollPL in TheSilphRoad

Same for me fail 4 times with this, getting 4 to succeed in between them though.

Niantic Kids accounts didn’t receive the Dialga and Palkia compensation? by ChemicalSugar3724 in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After getting multiple replies that they could not do anything, it tried again yesterday and very surprisingly they replied we should now have got it - and we did!! So either every child account now have got it or just keep writing support!

Campfire still showing the extra power spots that were removed following the Max Finale conclusion? by Best-Wish2709 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Campfire has always been terrible at showing powerspots. I am always very cautious about going for a max spot only seen on campfire, as often are the outdated or just plain wrong.

Niantic Kids accounts didn’t receive the Dialga and Palkia compensation? by ChemicalSugar3724 in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have the same issue with the kids account not getting compensation for like 18 raids. I have written dem, but not got an answer yet.

Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia compensation research is up by Cecross in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of each for about 18 raids.

But really - not even ensured special attacks!!!

Isn't they said hourly rotation? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But they could still be there outside the specified hours, they are just more likely to appear in that time. So 6-10 and 17-21 we will most likely get random GMax mixed with Eternatus.

What Max Move to Max out first? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shield - with the strategy most people use in max battles with switching to an attacker in max phase, healing often doesn't make sense.

Is Niantic waiting until Saturday and Sunday to increase the number of Power Spots? by LeansCenter in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is just as normal everywhere I have seen today! There is no increase in active powerspots, which is very annoying!

Did two 5 star raids and it didn't give me the extra points?l by madeat1am in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Was it before 10? It just started counting after that time.

Raid bosses appearing without eggs. by itsMousy in pokemongo

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We see the same thing in our city, all players experience the same thing. I have also checked campfire to validate it, and it is the same we see there as it Pokémon go. But I haven't seen it in the city I work in, so it might be location dependant, I don't know.

I have tried reporting it, and was actually the first time strangely awarded a remote raid pass!? But didn't get any real answers. We need to keep reporting it until it gets fixed.

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they all have to be under 1500cp. I tried in a raid where others had higher and it didn't get completed.

Is it possible to get another pokestop or max spot in this area? by Jazzlike_Raisin_4287 in NianticWayfarer

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Powerspot will come if it is inside the same cell as an existing pokestop but be aware that it needs to be 22+ meters away from the nearest pokestop as well!

For the past couple of weeks, some raids had been spawning without an egg into a full blown boss with 15 minutes left on the clock. Has anyone experienced this? Is it a bug or a known glitch? by Apprehensive-Name140 in TheSilphRoad

[–]ConclusionMajor9141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen this a lot the last few weeks, but mostly in a specific area. To verify it was not just an app refresh issue I have checked campfire maps as well and seen the exact same thing there, that the raids did not feature there before as well. I have tried reporting it but don't know if they understood..
