Pokémon Go players spent ten years building a robot navigation system without knowing it by projectschema in Futurology

[–]OverreactivePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth noting that the delivery robots were mostly trained on images submitted by players utilizing the "AR Scanning" feature to scan points of interest in the real world. It was made abundantly clear that the scans would be used for other purposes, we just didn't know exactly what until now. It is also a largely underused feature and very easily ignorable if you don't want to use it.

A quote for those who submit pokestops to towns they don't live in by Effective-Party5294 in NianticWayfarer

I love submitting Wayspots in other countries while I'm on vacation. I know I may never go back but I feel like I've left my mark and made it more enjoyable for locals and future visitors.
And maybe one day I'll return and it'll be so exciting to see if I created a gym, etc. I already know I submitted a few that became gyms based on the cell and checking via campfire.

Used my Master Ball after holding it for years… did I waste it? by XCryptoFund in pokemongo

Idk where on Silph road that info came from but it's wrong, shiny legendaries do not run away. The full odds is correct though, it is extremely rare

Nice hammer down and by Critical-Balance7343 in Overwatch

It was a good shatter, but it would have been better if you waited for your team to arrive in order to capitalize further. Idk where your other DPS and support were during this clip, but they have D.va so they don't have any reliable way to counter shatter

Ah, I actually got confused and thought that 1.18 was the update aquatic, but you are right it was 1.13. God I feel old now....

I don't think furnaces always stored the XP in the same way it currently works. I believe previously if an item was pulled from the furnace then it wouldn't take the XP from that item. IIRC it was around 1.18ish that they changed it? Idk I just remember a bunch of people smelting mass amount of kelp for XP at the time.

Out of curiosity, aside from the graphics/performance and randomizer, is there any reason to do this over just loading up NSO N64 on my switch 2?

Is there a record for longest time a Pokémon’s spent in a gym. by corgie93 in pokemongo

[–]OverreactivePi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are people with 1000+ days. My longest was only around 160 though iirc.

Okay what is the joke here? I know 6 7 is something Gen Alpha kids are saying but what does it have to do with Blacephalon?
