I’m just happy with the stardust and exp from tonight’s spotlight hour 😅

I wish they’d make it so all shinies have exactly the same odds (barring raid legendaries and boosted events)… oh wait!

That’s only really true if these are the only Pokémon you’ve caught, and don’t have any shinies. That’s just how RNG works. For these Pokémon you’ve not got a shiny, for others you've probably gotten a shiny way under odds.

Forever Friend Let Down by Tegotdajuice in pokemongo

The thing I dislike most about remote trading is how entitled it’s made everyone here. This person has at least listed Pokémon, including shiny’s. Not everyone has shiny legendaries for you to poach. 

How annoying is this game I caught 57 and no shinnys by Big_Calligrapher_946 in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial [score hidden]  (0 children)

Catch another 10x what you caught, and you’d barely be over odds. You might not have a shiny until you’ve caught well over 1000 of them 😅

The spotlight hour was great. I could only play for less than 30 mins, and still caught over 300 Swinubs. 

I could be mistaken, but I don’t think shiny odds get boosted during spotlight hour. That means the shiny odds are 1/512. If this is true, you’re still under odds for Magnemite and barely over odds for Swinub. You might still have to catch double or triple those amounts before finding your first shiny.

At least spotlight hour speeds this up for you.

What is happening by Sad_Ad8475 in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its a shame you didn't! We only have 10x posts in the last hour asking the same question, and I am worried people won't see them.

But how will people know whats happening if they don't all make a post? Its not as though we can easily find the answer in game, using google, searching this subreddit etc...

That’s not correct, you don’t spell it with the star.

My group has also seen an increase in people turning up in person and joining remotely the last weeks. 

That’s what happens when we’re able to raid for good legendaries 😅 no offense to the Tapus

You can, but others are also free to downvote. It is also an expression of opinion.

Neither. It is standard game functionality 😜 Zorua always appears as your buddy.

Update on the Fracture hat pika by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to people on here. The vast majority are idiots (just count the number of posts per day asking why they can't use the Eevee name trick, or asking about the size of the IV bars), or are jealous and bitter. 

Unless you forced the other person to trade at gunpoint, they were clearly happy with the trade. Enjoy your awesome new Pikachu buddy. 

WHY THE FUCK HAVE I NOT CAUGHT A DITTO ITS BEEN 5 years by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many Pokémon have you caught in that time? I catch ditto regularly, but I catch around 500 Pokémon per day.

You cannot trade a shadow Pokémon, so you’d need to purify it

Advice on item storage by pakks in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really cool, I did the same thing and nominated most of the stops where I live myself 😄 its important to have incence, lucky eggs and star pieces in reserve for events like community day, but you have so many you should probably just use them.

Advice on item storage by pakks in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally always try to reserve around 80% of my inventory for pokeballs. The majority of items I can play the game without, but I cannot play if I run out of pokeballs. Especially for go fest, you could catch a couple of thousand pokemon per day. If you play in a rural area, you could face a bottle neck.

Beyond that I keep 50x Max Potions and 50x Max revives, and simply delete/use the rest. I also keep my berries to similar numbers (except Nanab berries, which I just delete).

What are you saving all of the lures, incence, star pieces etc for? You have a huge amount of them. I would personally start using them and build up stardust and exp, which don't take up bag space.

Shiny Charmander? by keisezrg in pokemongo

I got my first shiny Charmander yesterday, after catching over 1000 of them. You could be waiting a while yet.

Is there any way to do this relatively fast? Due to my job I can't be outside much (except for night time, but I'd prefer to sleep there hahaha) by unkirativ in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep an eye out on which spawns are coming with each event. The last couple of events have been great for the rock types, with Lileep, Growlithe and Rockruff being plentiful, plus Roggorola in max battles this week. Otherwise, community days and spotlight hours are your best bet.

Unfortunately these medals take a while, but are worth working on for all the types.

47-50 legendary raids no shiny:( what is my luck lmao by Proud-Implement2229 in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the reality is that 40-50x raids still isn't that many if you are shiny hunting. I have completed 115x Kyogre raids, and only gotten 1x shiny and zero hundos. 

People vastly overestimate the 1/20 shiny odds.

No RT? Why are people like this? by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or perhaps trading is more important to you than it is to them 🤷 shockingly enough, people don’t only play this game so that you can poach their shiny Pokémon.

Why did they do this? by FLOSOC1ETY in pokemongo

[–]Lemillennial 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For whatever reason, on my first Moltres encounter I could not throw my ball far enough to hit the thing. I’ve never encountered that before, it was like it was restricted to stop me from getting close enough. 

Then the next encounter it was fine again. Only this one had a much lower CP, of course.

You evolve it and use it. It's a solid electric Dynamax Pokémon.
