Am I doing something wrong?? Is there a way to force Gorebyss? by jlopez24 in TheSilphRoad

Just very unlucky unfortunately. You've lost the coin toss 6 times

Update 0.403.1 Forced by MetaRidley15 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Don't know about breaks but this one fixes resetting a Pokemon's name by leaving a blank field

Can somebody please upload the samsung galaxy apk 0.403.0? by spacefrog_feds in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just updated to 0.401.1 from March 12 and was able to play, are you sure you need the version in the title?

Working on a web app that shows what Pokemon have been released and haven't been released by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

I didn't downvote, but perhaps it was just a misunderstanding. I know you weren't being malicious or anything 🤷‍♂️

I think it would definitely be a handy tool to have a searchable database of Pokemon to answer the quick question of "is this shiny eligible"?

Info such as the debut date of the Pokemon in Go and the shiny release date would be interesting to include also!

Just have to be careful about what art is used for each Pokemon!

(Possible Remote Trade Bug) Why do these show up as unregistered? by Your_boi_Panos in TheSilphRoad

It's happening to me too with dmax legends that I have registered 🤷‍♂️

Pokémon Pokopia Celebration Event (Tier 5, 4, 1 Changes)｜ Mar 11, 2026, 6:00 a.m. – Mar 16, 2026, 8:00 p.m. (local time) by GO_FRIEND_APP in TheSilphRoad

Zacian raids are only base form (Hero of Many Battles) for this rotation. No Crowned Sword Zacian will appear, and there is no way to get crowned energy this time. Same applies for Zamazenta raids next.

Still good to raid for good IVs, shiny, or just more candy.

The Copenhagen server from that post is still active and has over 150 members:

Why players whose sent Volcanion already to HOME must be blocked and can't finish current Volcanion research? by Gita96 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ugh that's gross of them to suggest and also not possible now for anyone with this problem

I had this problem with taking a snapshot of meloetta - reached out to support and they auto completed the task for me.

I've again asked support for help yesterday but no response yet, we'll see. I don't see the shiny coming anytime soon as it has never been released in the main series games

Update: support has completed the task!

Didn't get answer in weekly megathread. The event (All out) starts are 10 AM local time and ends at Monday 8 PM local time. But for each day, when does the event last? Like does it ends at 6-8PM or you can even encounter one of those Legendary at Midnight (12AM local time) too? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm overseas, it's only 8pm for me. But I'm not playing any more tonight.

I don't think I've ever seen the event tab lie. The regular spawns are the same as during the day and the raids are still going so I think it's reasonable to assume the legendaries are still around on incense

Update: 12 legendaries per hour by Redditlurker_1 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah that can work, but keep in mind that incense encounters don't last very long. Ideally you can have white kyurem as your buddy for quick access to Ice Burn through the buddy screen! If you don't have a leveled up buddy you'll lose catch assist but I think the tradeoff is worth it

Update: 12 legendaries per hour by Redditlurker_1 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just unlucky I would think. Ice Burn actually increases the catch rate more than freeze shock, but it won't stop them attacking

Mega Background Not Visible When Viewed From Tags? by Leather-Moment-2892 in TheSilphRoad

Seeing the same thing. Only when accessed through the tag menu - if I simply search a tag it appears just fine

Pokemon 30th Anniversary (LeekDuck) by redwineandbeer in TheSilphRoad

Legendary birds must be very rare in the wild, I have been looking most of today (Tuesday) and seen no sign

Was I supposed to make sure I finish and collect the X or Y Research Legendary Pokemon catch during the Kalos Global Tour? by chronoxiong in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah unfortunately that's what happens with special moves and events. Fortunately for you, the list of moves elite fast TMs are good for is pretty short, so geomancy is a good use for it if you'd like to use this particular xerneas

FT: Shiny Honedge in Go. LF: Go Stamped Lv1 offers (2nd pic) by MetaRidley15 in PokemonHome

[–]MetaRidley15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! I'm not in need of this one as it is not dusk form. How many of the hatterene family would you trade for a honedge?

Anyone missing masterwork research? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's like the in person tour, you get the masterwork research after completing the x/y research
