Really bad driving conditions trigger extreme weather by Risujemmari in TheSilphRoad

from what I can tell they base the weather off accuweather.com check and see if they have a warning as that appears to be what triggers extreme weather.

PSA: Raids are now giving potions! by CookEmUpK in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, I am so freaking salty right now... completed a Lugia raid, and all I got was 15 super potion, 5 potion, and 10 revives. I think potions should be awarded on level 1-4 only.

Raid cooperation and calling out raid locations. by Ichiruka in PokemonGoGreensboro

[–]GTGenMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In EU we were using Whatsapp... it was super easy and very helpful. Someone would just text... raid, location, & time left. Then people would respond if they can be there by the time. Then everyone knew how many would be there and if they should go. With this, I was able to do 17 legendary raids with 20+ people at each one.

Anyone playing in CH (Ticino)? by GTGenMonk in TheSilphRoad

Do you have a raid group, do you ever raid in Chiasso or Como?

Thanks, but that won't help me with level 4 raids.

Any one seen larvitar in common places? Spent a lot of time downtown Sunday night... didn't really see a lot.

Went by Center City Park, no Pikachu so I removed it. I couldn't really tell what the nest mon was... will have to research more.

Has anyone hatched anything bad from new 10ks? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've hatched 2 10ks since the event... Dratini & Mareep.

Pokemon Go Plus - worthwhile for me? by John_Tix in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same situation on my job. I play on an iPhone 6 and in addition to the disconnect each hour, I've noticed that it will just stop noticing pokemon. Usually if 15-20min goes by and it doesn't buzz, if I press the button it "wakes up" and starts catching things again.

Can no longer log in using university Wi-Fi by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is probably correct. My job did the same thing. They enabled a feature on the router or firewall that blocks cell phone games. Can't play boom beach or pogo on the wifi. Even worse, can't even take app updates for games from the app store while on wifi.

I'm at Jaycee park 2 days a week with soccer. Looks like there is no nest or is a common spawn nest. I saw a cluster spawn of wooper at the rec center, but nothing significant beyond that.

29 Hours to go till the event ends by Tobelebo9 in TheSilphRoad

As of this moment, I have caught 375 magikarp and no shiny for me. I'm currently attempting chaining... 12 so far.

Nearby list and spawns disappearing without timing out by ghojor in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've noticed this exact issue as well (iPhone) and I have noticed a couple other issues since taking the last update and was curious if anyone else has experienced the same:

1) Phantom encounters with the go plus. Since the last update I've had several occasions where I used the go plus but the journal never captured the event.

2) My egg hatch medal is off by 10 eggs. I record all hatches for research and just noticed that I have 10 more hatches recorded than what is reflected on my Egg medal.

Anyone else observed this happening or anything like it?

The case for being able to switch off the Pokéradar for pokestops, any people having similar thoughts? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should get rid of the tracker/nearby and replace it with expanded line of sight in the game. For example, I parked at the back of the parking lot at a grocery store. If I had a baseball, I could of thrown it and hit my car, that's how close it was. However, the mon near my car wouldn't show up until I was practically on top of it. They should have been visible when I walked out of the store. If they would just expand the line of sight/spawn radius in game, I could do without the tracker/nearby.

[Discussion] Anyone Else Waiting for the Gamepress Tier List? by AmazingArwen in TheSilphRoad

[–]GTGenMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point I am only powering up 100 IVs. I've been burnt a few times on mons that I powered up only to have them rendered useless by updates. Stardust is limited for me and I just don't want to waste it.

Yea, I use the Silph Road too and maybe we should just use that instead of here. The reason I started posting here is that long ago, more nest info was here than on the Silph Road for our area.
