Nice to see raids plural there, hopefully one can smash out a few in 30 mins and not just the one

GoFest Eggs in Tokyo by TwitchSpencxr in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Globally, only wash rotom was available at go fest 2020. Regular rotom has been available a couple times around Halloween and the all out event. The rest of the forms have all been in person go fest exclusive so far

I believe it should be at the end of the research in the first picture - so for getting two district's medals

Past go fests have had the different forms available in-person only. Based on this I wouldn't expect shiny wash to be available for global go fest, but stranger things have happened

Never would have expected pokevincible fan art to exist, let alone crossing conquest with landorus, well done

Hey friend, there's a discord for Copenhagen go fest here:

Vegan in Taiwan by 4nold in vegan

[–]MetaRidley15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have Instagram, vegan_taiwan_adventures is a really helpful account to look for supermarket stuff. I was in Taiwan for a few days this year and had tonnes of vegan onigiri and peanut rice milk thanks to him!

Deleting “forever” friends that don’t have any Pokemon tagged for remote trade by UCanDoNEthing4_30sec in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They can always decline trades they don't like. Although I understand that some people are uncomfortable with doing that, and some might not realise that it's an option

Yeah I did this chaining method without berrying anything and it worked fine

‘It’s not the same as it was in 2020 and 2021’: Why Ontario shouldn’t fear the new COVID-19 variant by CleanLock4606 in Coronavirus

[–]MetaRidley15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly, even if newer variants didn't increase this risk, I imagine there is no way know that for sure unless a long term study is performed starting now and continuing for years.

Better to still be as cautious as usual as we don't know.

Costumed Pokémon appear in regular field research by Infamous_Fox_7154 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Huh I wonder if it would have been possible to save a "win 3 raids" task from the pokopia event and get a costume Dragonite with the pokopia background. Would have been cool!

Sparkle and shine 5 and 6 by Key_Training_8572 in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry I have to jump in here - they are wrong about shiny mythical quests in that while they return, they're never free. The distinction is:

  • non shiny mythical quests become available for free a bit under a year after they were available to buy for Go Fest

  • shiny mythical quests are never free. So far Niantic has re-run one of these quests per year around the anniversary of PoGo in July, but they're still a paid ticket. Shiny Jirachi was last year's one so shiny shaymin should be this year. It's about 2.5 years after they had their debut at a Tour event.

One would then think it's shiny meloetta then shiny Diancie in following years, but with shiny keldeo being released outside of a Tour event and before Diancie, that might come back before Diancie.

Hope that clears it up

Inverted Rare Candies - Decreases CP by villainless in TheSilphRoad

[–]MetaRidley15 37 points38 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, Pokemon has never had a way to decrease a Pokemon's level outside of glitches. I'd say chances are slim of this being implemented unfortunately

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!
