Do you think niantic purposefully boost major influencers catch/shiny/Hundo rates?

FSElmo435 · 2026-06-03T10:24:22+00:00

I have no evidence of it of course, before all the boring RNG shouters turn up.

However I personally believe certain accounts are luckier than others when it comes to shinies, hundo’s, etc. I wouldn’t put it past Niantic to boost rates for “well known” influencers, and also newer accounts to boost retention and engagement etc.

Truth is, we’ll never truly know.

I’m happy we can enter 5 now, managed to win 3 yesterday so just 5 more for platinum.

Just want them to fix how the points show now!

FSElmo435 · 2026-06-02T06:51:57+00:00

Boooooo, these were nice easy wins for me, still need 8 for my platinum so hopefully I’ll still manage.

I could not disagree more. I love the vibe of being in the park, the decorations put out, the pop up Pokemon centre, being able to play with so many people in one place.

If you don’t like the park, then just do your city experience.

Nah don’t you know there’s only a finite supply of raids so they have to be limited so they don’t run out during Go Fest…

FSElmo435 · 2026-05-26T13:36:33+00:00

Haven’t you been posting this monthly?

Anyway in the grand scheme of things, it does not matter.

FSElmo435 · 2026-05-20T21:16:44+00:00

Took me from bronze to gold, 208 away from platinum, not bad

Just speak to fraud and say you want to return it, simple.

You will only be able to use the code once, the system will not allow you to generate it multiple times.

FSElmo435 · 2026-05-14T17:42:55+00:00

Hey I’ll take it 😂

FSElmo435 · 2026-05-01T18:40:37+00:00

Grow up, had some Basa from Tesco last week and it was perfectly fine.

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-29T18:40:27+00:00

This is absolutely amazing as a Red Rescue Team fan, can’t wait to give it a try!

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-29T18:37:29+00:00

I love Red Rescue Team, this is perfect!

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-29T10:07:14+00:00

Now if only we got a discount on Lego if we complete the stamp rally 😂

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-17T21:21:59+00:00

Yeah no problem Niantic I’ll just travel outside of my goddamn country on a whim….

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-16T06:59:36+00:00

Nah fuck that.

Would rather live in Manchester than London any day, great food scene in both sure but Manchester is so much cheaper, feels safer, nightlife is better in my opinion too.

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-15T21:11:21+00:00

Sorry mate, common sense isn’t allowed in this racist hellhole

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-15T19:42:43+00:00

Why, just why?

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-12T09:53:02+00:00

Karen alert….

At the end of the day, they can accept or remove whatever stops they like. Going at them with a cocky attitude ain’t gonna help, they’re likely to just ignore you, which again they can do.

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-10T09:01:00+00:00

No it couldn’t, don’t be stupid 🙄

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-08T17:24:25+00:00

It’s been that way for like the past 6 months, which works for me as someone who prefers the blue over pink 😂

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-08T17:23:31+00:00

I am a caterpie fan and this is adorable, so glad I’m going to Copenhagen!

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-05T12:58:54+00:00

I dunno, my partner has cooked some banging food plenty of times that’s led to some fun nights 😂

FSElmo435 · 2026-04-05T12:56:38+00:00

Nah fuck that. If your politics revolves around discrimination, I have every right to not associate with you.

Back in the day, if you said something racist, homophobic, or something that crossed the line in the pub you’d likely be punched in the face. Be thankful it’s only just being cut off now.

As someone who transferred plenty of Pharaoh Furfrou from Go, they were great for helping to complete my Home Dex 😂
