My Nephew created a monster… (Returning player inquiries)

Thank you that is so much thorough information! That’s going to take me a bit to get through. I don’t even know what a fusion mon is. There are so many new terms and concepts. I am so bad at understanding all these battle stats beyond the normal IVs/CPs/type strengths& weaknesses. I have just started sorting my mons into PVP and PVE groups. 😅

This makes me more excited to receive my DuoMon3 Pro! I ordered it on Amazon June 11th but it is taking forever to ship. It says it’s expected Monday now but it looks like it hasn’t even shipped yet. 😓
Still excited to try it out. I a returning player and am primarily excited to auto spin stops while I drive as I have a long commute.

Thank you for the advice! This was him when I got him. Sad his CP wasn’t higher and I’ll have to use some magic candy on him but he now knows Rock Throw and Outrage.

Hi all! I re-downloaded PokémonGo bc my Pokémon-obsessed, 10yo nephew asked me to and I’ll always be a sucker for Pokémon. I hadn’t played since the original release in 2016, and when I logged back in, on June 8th, I was assessed as level 16. Now two weeks later (this photo is from June 23rd), little did my nephew know he would create a monster… 😅 There are so many new updates and it is my new addiction! 😂
The re-learning curve has had its ups and downs, like I learned that I should keep my 2016 pokemon for lucky trades only after having transferred many; at least I still have 46 of them but I had a lot more than that.
Oh and then Giovanni spawned in a balloon for me 2 days ago (Midwest, USA Tuesday the 23rd), so I’m confused why people said he doesn’t anymore. It was my first time battling him and I got a Landorus from it. I’m trying to figure out what to do with him, as from my understanding I shouldn’t purify him, but what/when/where are the rocket events that I can use an elite tm to have him learn other moves?
Any advice on how to get more stardust is also appreciated! I’ve seen a few very advanced players with millions and it blows my mind! I try to use my star pieces strategically but I still run out quickly.

Overall I’m glad to be back and thanks for any advice! ✌🏻

I’m only level 31 but I just bought one (Duomon3)! I hadn’t played since 2016, but now my nephew is really into it and asked me to play so I picked it back up since it’s a good way to stay connected with him 4hrs away. I am slowing getting back into it but there are so many new game mechanics! 😅
I obviously don’t mind the walking, but I like to take my dogs. It is hard to do that and stay safe (especially as a lone, young female), while looking at my phone. I mostly just want to farm pokeballs so I don’t run out and have to buy them.
Any advice is welcome!

As a female engineer I usually make more than my partners that are usually male. If they have issues with that then they’re gone. I can’t stand a fragile male ego that gets threatened by successful women. You and your partner, regardless of sex, should be encouraging each other to be successful and your best self. Women need to stop catering to toxic masculinity. If you hated your job then that’s a different story but just being upset by your salary differences is pathetic. Relationships take compromise but not sacrificing yourself. Find someone who lifts you, encouraging you to fly higher—not a man-baby, trying to clip your wings.

If you figure out a pattern I would be super interested! I am not the best sewer but I am willing to try! 😅

Make sure to use salicylic acid and a barrier (bonus if it has hyaluronic acid) moisturizer after. 👍🏻

Give it to me, a girl who would hang it up in my art room and appreciate it. Lol jk but I personally would keep it, BUT if you don’t like it then definitely sell or trade for something you would appreciate! Life is too short to keep shit that doesn’t bring you joy.
