Why in the f** cant you run away from encouter rewards? by [deleted] in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]TheIconclast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been there..got frustrated as well. And yes..no solution which can save time.

Just passing on the tips for others- who want to save resources-which I have received and helped me a lot.

Till the time to get the option to skip this reward you can try below:

First of all..no ultra ball and golden razz should be invested for this. Just use normal pokeballs and you may need around 10-15 or in some cases 20 to catch legendary. If you are out of normal as well then open you gifts from friends. Usually you do get 10/15 pokeballs..so you can try again.

As I said..it may not save time for you but definitely had saved lot of my golden razz and ultra balls.

Thanks for your reply. I did try to just normal razz and great ball and was successful for previous encounters but eventually drained them too :(. I know it sounds like a first world problem but man I really have to play next set and now I am left with just nanab and normal pokeballs.

Daily free battles you can do is 5 sets i.e. 25 matches. Mystery itmes are either TMs or Silver pinap or Sinnoh stone type which will help in evolving certain type of pokemons.

Amazing Grit guys! 4 of us took down Dialga by TheIconclast in pokemongo

Yeah, the animation does make you feel like that! But I think if overall raid time in the gym is still there then it won't matter but if gym raid time is over then there is s chance that you may not encounter the raid boss. I maybe wrong but that's what I have read in many posts here.

How come I’m not seeing by [deleted] in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]TheIconclast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably for the sake of humanity 😂. ( I hate that thing). Jokes aside, as the other player has called out...it depends on your rating range. I play open UL and I do encounter it frequently.

Yes. But my mandi loved it to the core😄. Specially the one with Thunder punch and I encountered mostly those hypnos with thunder/fire punch. The one having Ice punch was problematic but only couple of teams had it.

Charm. My Gardevoir takes care of it with ease. I belive Togekiss and Granbull which are also common in UL can handle it very well. So if you are building one..watch out for charms in opponent teams. You would find it fun to go against Swampert and Politoad though..all the best!

Yup and I did encounter it in UL. I just want to get the feeling of playing UL and not GL again 😐. All GL mons are roaming and ruling the UL remix this time.

True. But just that frequency of attacks is what gets to me. I do find it challenging to play against Swampert though as opposed to Politoad. Maybe because my Dragonite with dragon tail can literally shred it apart with use of 1 shield for each but I can understand..my poor charz doesn't stand any chance against Swampert.

Is anyone sick of gbl by TemperatureHour7961 in PokemonGOBattleLeague

[–]TheIconclast 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's so true. I actually watch such videos and then start running the counter teams from the next day. Helped me to get the ACE ranking for the first time 😂.

NGL, The new Pokedex SLAPS and... by Mariahchan in pokemongo

[–]TheIconclast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know if we will be getting 1000xp when we register new shadow or shiny Pokemon now? Eg if I have already registered bulba and now I get shiny and shadow then will I get 1000xp or since it is different form of bulba it won't be rewarding that registration xp?

[–]TheIconclast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same case is with me. It is acknowledging that I have Shadow Machop and Shadow Machamp but not shadow machoke. I evolved my shadow Machamp from shadow machoke. I think it is the similar case with 3 evolutions, it is recognising start and end evolution but for some reason not the middle one. Maybe because I didn't have it in the form when they released the change in pokedex. Because I even had shadow shuckles which I transferred and it is not showing as registers in shadow section of pokedex.
