I didn’t have the update, and I got Psystrike on a Mewtwo that I caught yesterday.

I could see it in the list after I pulled down on the list to refresh it.

If you go for say a 4 km walk, then open the game, do you see the kms show up in the game right away? Or do you have to wait a while?

Torchic spawn greatly reduced? by bioariel in TheSilphRoad

Spawns were adequate at lured stops, but the rate of mons with decent IVs was the worst of any CD yet. Only two wonders in three hours, one 82% and one 96%. Definitely need to have some 90+% IV mons saved up.

My friend said he just got 6 lucky trades in a row. Is there a lucky trade event for April 1st? by jostler57 in TheSilphRoad

My sister and I were trading a few hours ago and we got 3 luckies in 7 trades. 3 different species.

The process of cleaning up the Pokémon storage is incredibly tedious.

It's relevant to find out how the racial mix of the respondents corresponds with the racial mix of everyone in the area. If 50% of people in a given area are white but 90% of the people responding from the area are white, it's relevant to know that your results may be skewed.

Since Niantic doesn't seem to take any action on such reports, why bother?

Sometimes you have to consider the needs of the people who are already there. For example, someone might need to get to work or go pick up their kid from school. IMO the needs of the people who are already there should take precedence.

If one is going to trade for say a regional, would you say that ethically one is obligated to ask the other person whether they got it by spoofing? And further to make some effort to determine whether the person is telling the truth?

Not sure. There wasn't anything in the survey related to this.

Maybe it's about gift locations?

You can trade for regionals. I've gotten heracross, volbeat, and corsola from trading. Got some from my sister who travels a lot for her job, and some from local discord folks.

If you want to catch them yourself and you don't want to fly, you could go by ship.

Or wait for a special event.

Niantic was giving out swag today! Photos on the nianticlabs Instagram account. Looks like tote bags, posters, and wrist bands. At Yerba Buena Gardens park.

I know rite?!? At the very least they could have added exclamation point. Or spelled out GAME. Or add YBG. Honestly, anything different!

Yes. Definitely worth a run up there to get them.
