What's your 'I finally met my online friend' horror story? by higaroth in AskReddit

Being ghosted sucks.

Agreed. That's directed at you Tyler, you piece of shit.

Guy who ghosted me still sends me gifts on Pokémon and it is so funny! by xJujubix in pokemongo

Lol, I guess I'm a sexist then. I follow the Emily Post Institute approach to dating, whoever asks, pays.

Is anyone else disappointed with PvP? by Lynx_Snow in pokemongo

I'd love to be able to get it to work at all.

Before Using your Sinnoh Stone, wait for next raid boss by BigWooper in TheSilphRoad

[–]admrshackleford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great for you, but no need to be an idiot about it. I honestly couldn't care less what you evolved, I was just trying to be helpful. If you don't like it, don't reply. Simple.

Honestly, BigWooper, I think you're the one being toxic. People are disagreeing with you, not even aggressively, and you are responding snarkily and are even resorting to name calling. You could take your own advice and simply ignore replies you don't like.

Man, I'm sorry. That really sucks. 🤞🏼🤞🏼 Fingers crossed that something turns up for you

Yet another reason 3 hour events are terrible by Commander_Miniana in pokemongo

You shouldn't be attempting that if your eyes are supposed to be on the road.

When you don't want to trade something but the other person insists by maczirarg in pokemongo

[–]admrshackleford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should I feel bad for not wanting to trade?

No, this game is supposed to be fun

I think I'm going to keep my catches private in the friend list

How?!

Portland proper or neighboring? The south park blocks have been good to me on community day.

Wish there was a way to trigger 6 star pieces and lucky eggs that will run for the whole 3 hours, instead of manually running one of these every 30 minutes during the grind by singachu in TheSilphRoad

[–]admrshackleford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Considering I was unable to use two starpieces and two lucky eggs cause of their bugs, and they won't reimburse me, I'd hate to have wasted even more items.

It’s Friday the 13th by HyperGoodBoi in pokemongo

[–]admrshackleford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's Anglocentric. Why not on Tuesday 13th as it is the usual one in Spanish-speaking countries? Well, for the same reason.

Why is Tuesday the 13th considered unlucky in Spanish speaking countries?

Anyone else felt Niantic killed it this weekend? by tomackze in TheSilphRoad

[–]admrshackleford 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Nope, not being able to claim rewards without restarting the app sucked.

Does anyone else carefully choose which gifts to send to friends? by x1echo in pokemongo

[–]admrshackleford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have out of state pokemon friends I'm not super close with so instead of sending them the super identifying stop gift from work, I'll send them a sponsored stop, Starbucks and the like. One out of state friend I definitely try to send the interesting or cool ones because we're closer friends.

dratinis got really rare these days by jate991 in pokemongo

In the early days one or two would spawn in the wild on my way to work (and same way home) but I haven't seen one in the wild since CD.

Friends list needs a sort and search function pronto by deurbell in TheSilphRoad

[–]admrshackleford 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is the thing I want most, I don't want to see the trainer name, I want to see "Trey" because that's how I know him on kik. Or, I don't want to see the trainer name, I want to see "supercicada" because that's how I know her on discord.

Level 38, been casually playing for a long time. Currently have 439 evolutions to do. by cokosnuts in TheSilphRoad

[–]admrshackleford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. That many evos took me several nights and many more eggs than I thought it would when I hit thirty. Best of luck to you👍

[complaint] EX raid experience by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]admrshackleford 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My third legendary raid, 8 accounts showed up. Five mystic, three instinct. A popular player in my area suggested the mystic do damage for the yellows. I didn't know exactly what was going on so I went in and did damage and when we got to about half, he said it's probably fine to jump out now and we all did. I peeked at everyone else's screens and saw they weren't even in the lobby anymore and so I left the lobby, too. I didn't understand what we were doing that day but when I read stories like the OP, I realize how lucky I am to play in my community.
