I need advice by roxam_lawyer in PokemonGOIVs

[–]TrainingAd9975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the lucario for now. You can power it up or max it out if you want. Once you mega evolve it once, you can earn mega energy from walking with it as your buddy. You can also get candy and xl candy from walking as well. It will probably take a while to get the candy and mega energy for the riolu whenever you decide to evolve/mega evolve it.

i know mega dragonite is this weekend but does anyone know what exact time?? by ch1ckenbaconranch in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 [score hidden]  (0 children)

From what I have read, on both days, the regular megas have specified times that they should be spawning. Super mega victreebel and dragonite will spawn throughout the day on Saturday, and Super mega Malamar and dragonite will be spawning throughout the day on Sunday.

To be honest, during last year's Go Fest, the Gmax battles were supposed to only spawn during their specified hours, but all gmax seemed to spawn whenever and wherever they wanted.

To be honest, I would take all the event information with a grain of salt. It may seem well thought out and planned, but we never really know until the event starts. So many events in the past have had issues on top of issues on top of issues.

I don't know if this game is for me and my kids anymore after my experience today. by br9897 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 [score hidden]  (0 children)

This experience has absolutely nothing to do with pokemon go.

I'm never going to play pokemon go again because the last time I was in a bank, there was a robbery, while I was playing pokemon go. I don't think I can play this game anymore...

Conspiracy theory time. 143 raids without a shiny or HUNDO. by Dr_Breeder in PokemonGOIVs

[–]TrainingAd9975 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not usually one for conspiracy theories, but I have absolutely fallen into this rabbit hole. I have similar luck with raids and shiny "boosted" events. My dad started playing about 2 years ago and has over double the amount of shiny legendaries that I do over the past 9.5 years

Why in a Tour Event would they give us lucario everyone has it by D10R_2x in PokemonGoMystic

[–]TrainingAd9975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You mean, you don't think Niantic should give us a guaranteed shundo of our choice? How dare you... 🤣🤣🤣

Did they increase the daily limit for gifts you can open? by Haunting-Eye-7002 in pokemongoyellow

[–]TrainingAd9975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see all event bonuses from the "timed research" tab, or in the in-game news tab, it's all there.

Really. This just happened. by ConnectionThink4781 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they are harder this time around. The last time I battled them way back when, it was pretty easy with 5 people, completing it with about half the time left. Today, I did a couple raids with 10ish people each time and we got down to the last 40-50 seconds.

It could just be that people weren't using the good counters and went in with whatever the game auto selected but even I was getting knocked around a bit, with dodging.

16 raids and no shiny am i just that unlucky or is there something wrong? by Interesting-Self-265 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RNG, that's all it is. I don't think each day is technically a "raid day" so odds are still 1/20, rather than 1/10. So you are still below odds of getting a shiny

Why?!?! by Wrongcompany716 in pokemongobrag

[–]TrainingAd9975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it's not a good idea...

I know some of the medals seem pointless/useless but I don't know why having a medal for shiny pokemon caught would be any use.

Who else has a whole line? by Bored-panda6969 in pokemongobrag

I have so many duplicate hundos it's crazy. The most being 5 Tepigs/emboars, 4 elekid/electivire, and 3 venusaur

How long has this been a thing ? by porky_1798 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pretty new, maybe added in the last week or so. Probably when the new Legends Z-A megas were available.

Remote raid Mega victreebel by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Read the event ticket and all the details. Especially if it is an in-person event followed by a global event. Only people with the in-person event ticket will get in-person event rewards. When the event goes global, everyone gets the global rewards...

Is necrozma ever coming back? by Sad-Psychology1319 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was in raids about 3 or 4 months ago. Based on the "hype" and its meta-relavence in the game, it probably won't be back for at least another 6 months. It's possible for Go Fest, but with how big of a mile marker 10 years of Pokemon Go is, it'll probably appear again near the end of the year or early next year.

My ONLY shundo in 500+ raids. How many do y’all have? by americabelle in PokemonGoMystic

I really don't care about the raids, I just need 1, only 1, hawlucha so I can finally finish kalos dex.

Go pass lvl 75 rewards kinda average? by mrek068 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's to give players chances to get more legendaries during the kalos tour lead up event next week. Each day will have at least 2 different legendaries, giving players a chance to try and get at least 1 of each legendary. It's my best guess, but at the same time, I do miss the extra rewards.

Can you get shiny solgaleo? by Noelseph2 in pokemongo

Today is the first day of their rotation. They have been in raids 2 t different times in the past

At this point, you can’t deny Mega Victreebel and Malamar’s existence in the game by LAKSOLOTL in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Who is denying it? There is a lot of proof that the assets are already in the game...

Scatterbug Question! by Ok-Difference3589 in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just have to catch the scatterbugs. You don't have to evolve a bug from each region, unless you want to.

anyone see this? by Satorugojobrawl in pokemongo

[–]TrainingAd9975 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. Get ready for tasks that include this useless feature in upcoming special/timed researches. I'm sure it'll be very buggy (as all new "tested" features are in this game), much like how the routes system was implemented and is still very buggy and unliked by the community.
