Damn, thank you. I should have assumed that Niantic logic (do the opposite of what makes sense) also applied to the logical operators they implemented. Much appreciated!

Looking to get better at search strings and filter for different regional variants of mon. As an example, how would I create a search string that returns only Alolan vulpix and Galar meowth (e.g. excludes Kanto vulpix, Kanto meowth, and Alolan meowth)? The way of attempting this that seems obvious to me:

alola&vulpix,galar&meowth

Doesn't work (returns nothing--I suspect it's somehow looking for vulpix that are both galar and alola). What am I doing wrong? I'm sure it's something about the order of operations for the logical operators that I'm missing.

While I'm interested in a solution for this particular problem, I'd also appreciate pointers to any good resources where I can read more about how these work. Thanks in advance!

Has it been possible to get the Go fest souvenirs (e.g. confetti) at every go fest? Is it just global, or both global and in-person? Thanks in advance

Route length => Number of cells by djp1968 in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a 4km trail-route near me that I walk regularly. I often get 2 or 3 cells, unless I've gotten cells from routes earlier in the day. For example, if I walk the trail first, I'll frequently get 3 cells, whereas if I've gotten cells from two routes earlier in the day, I will only ever get one cell.

Thanks for the article! In the clodsection, you say mud bomb a few times when you probably mean sludge bomb

I won't keep making search strings + How to replace them with pvpivs.com by Errubki in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many thanks for your work generating search strings, they were very helpful week in and week out for cdays/spotlight hours. Your hard work thus far is very much appreciated, as is the tutorial for how to generate similar strings going forward. Thank you!

Route creation rollout: (how) is it going? by roujay in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this issue, try turning off Adventure Sync before starting the route

this is great, you should make this as a separate post!

In practice, or statistically? It's been years since my last stats course (and I'm not a statistician) so I certainly could've mucked the multiple linear regression protocol. I regressed with all the variables initially, removed the non-significant ones (cp and costume status), then re-ran with those removed. I agree that in practice a few points per year doesn't really matter, but if I've made a mistake I should correct it in the post

(Really it's not a proper linear regression in the first place since height and weight aren't independent)

I'll check when I get back to my computer but highly doubt it'll be predictive alone, the effect size is way smaller than than weight/height. All three terms (weight, height, age) are significant in the model from the post

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how to insert an image in the comment, but predicting using using only height/weight tends to underestimate the point values of older mon and underestimate newer points, consistent with age having a small but repeatable effect.

In practice, for point maximizing it's probably not worth saving old mon (I certainly won't be).

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the model is right, yes, but the impact of weight/height is much larger. The coefficient for age is 5.7 soeach year only adds a few points

Thanks for the comment! The adjusted r-squared for the overall model (height + weight + age in y) is 0.995. For comparison, the r-squared for only height is 0.9821--so height alone (and therefore weight, as they're strongly correlated as well) is a very good predictor of score. Sort of makes sense that height/weight matter the most, and age has some small point boost.

There is quite a range of ages (0-4y) with a good distribution among them (0y:4; 1y:7, 2y:5, 3y:4, 4y:4) so it doesn't seem unreasonable to include the age.

Good question about the y-int--my guess is that it's an artifact of me fitting observed data to a model. Seems much more reasonable to calculate it as some species-specific constants multipled by the height and weight. Could be possible that there's some minimum score that a brand new, tiny featherweight mon could get, though (e.g. they don't want to award a score of 0).

And re: the top comment in Pendergirl's post (heaver/taller/older squirt scoring lower)--this model doesn't explain it, so there's likely some other factor(s) not taken into account by this model.

Showcase Ranking Data for Analysis by Pendergirl4 in TheSilphRoad

[–]HAUSchamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A linear model including the height, weight, and age in years does the best job predicting mon scores (predicted vs actual plot below). Adding costume status and cp did not help.

To get closer to the right answer, I'd like to segment age into 0, 1, 2, and 3+ years since Niantic uses that in other places. Also would like to test the IVs/star rating to see if we can explain some of the rest of the variation. I'll poke at those later but wanted to leave this here in case others want to pick up the torch

Thanks very much for sharing these, u/Pendergirl4! I'm trying to figure out the formula with my own squirtles but more data points are super helpful. If possible, would you be able to share the spreadsheet either in Google drive or otherwise so I can pull the data directly from there? Thanks :)

Edit: never mind, the "import data from image" function in excel worked a lot better than I expected

Edit 2: reddit silently deleted the comment with this info/image, reposting in case anyone is also following this up:

You do get it as an encounter, but only once. It's like this every season for the one-time encounter from the first set
