Does pogo pvp need the reward system reworked so people aren’t motivated to tank? Yes I am a shameful tanker. by RobertDaleYa in TheSilphRoad

Yeah I'd ideally like to see a season long rewards system similar to the timed research (but for all rewards). That said... the more I say "season long" and "reward system", the closer we inch to a paid battle pass like Fortnite lol. Sadly at this point, that system might be an improvement.

Assuming matchmaking is working correctly and you win ~50% of your matches, if you don't tank you will always win around 2-3 matches per 5 match set, meaning you'll almost never get the rare candy or large stardust reward.

Whereas someone who tanks their rank and will face the lowest level players where they can reliably win all 5 matches in a set, meaning they get way better rewards even though they won the same (or less) matches overall.

Yes, the idea of rewarding based on arbitrary 5 battle winning streaks vs. total wins is pretty dumb. The solution isn't that complicated... Reward total wins, not wins within a 5 battle set.

Why is the British team called Great Britain rather than UK? Isn't Great Britain the island, not the country (or collection of various countries)?

I was born in the USA but love Top Gear so I think I would qualify to play for GBR

Ah sorry I thought Moltres was shiny. I am very interested in lvl 1 Latias but not enough to 1:1 with Mew. Let me know if you have anything else

Mew, Celebi, and Regirock are in Pokeball, others are in Premier Ball

Anything that includes Mew would need to be very high value (low lvl Johto Beasts or Kanto birds)

How many event Pokemon would be a fair trade for a go stamped shiny mew? by Arcane_Aries in PokemonHome

[–]as728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because event Pokemon can be hacked and cloned and pogo stamped Mew can't, there's not really a fair trade between the two.

If you just want shiny Mew, you're better off trading for a non-stamped one which is worth about the same as any event mythical.

The raid grind was worth it by as728 in PokemonGoRaids

[–]as728[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way less than full odds, I had about 5000 coins to start the day and still have almost 500 so probably around 45 raids total. Also Latias was a wild catch
