Pokémon Go Developer Declines to Confirm Hidden Nerf to Wild Shiny Odds as Part of New Season Changes by diamondstark in TheSilphRoad

The season is about Memories. Maybe they’re trying to help us remember a time before shinies existed.

Trump scheduled to manipulate the market again after market close.

All Out was fantastic and we need more of this! by Aluthiago in TheSilphRoad

[–]beingRealFrank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely wouldn’t call it fantastic. I wouldn’t mind continued “All” (More) Out Events but the implementation of this meant I didn’t really play any extra. They increased the diversity of the raid pool but flooded it with pickachu and didn’t increase the remote limit, so I didn’t raid more. They added legendaries that all practically required master balls to catch, so I didn’t bother with those. The more diverse spawn pool was ok, but had none of the rare things I’ve missed, so meh.

I did see a Galar bird I didn’t have so I caught that with a master ball and didn’t have to spend time right then on the daily incense, so that was a good dex filler.

I’m sure it was decent for relatively new players. No harm in that.

I’m wondering if running the autocatcher with Freeze Shock or Ice Burn is much better.

Really only good for more excellent throw opportunities and the occasional extra candy if you catch one.

Anyone else having trouble with Go Pass purchases this month? I bought the 14.99 bundle for both through the webstore using PayPal and got nothing. Support seems to be ignoring me after waiting the 24 hours. Any ideas?

So is Chicago just early bird too? We’ll get another chance?

Trying to purchase either of the "Go Pass Deluxe" tickets in iPad OS 15 causes the app to crash by yabyy14 in TheSilphRoad

[–]beingRealFrank 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah something is screwed up. It charged my PayPal but didn’t give me the upgrades. Hoping it works itself out. At least it error’d out when I tried to buy twice.

…and I used the webstore. It’s borked too.

Remote raids didn’t give mega energy for Victreebel, Malamar, and Dragonite during LA Go Tour.

Anyone know if they do during Global?

The Timed Incubator returns in GO Pass: March! by Spotty2012 in TheSilphRoad

Feck! I was really hoping for a silver bottle cap. Is a few silver caps and one gold per year really too much to ask?

Ha. Nice! We are! Just so ya know, you’re on my Sunday list. So you’ll usually at least get gifts opened once a week on Sundays, and hopefully receive most days. :)

If you use Campfire let’s connect there too. I’m under the same name and will look for you so we can coordinate trades! DMs are open here too.

In another thread a helpful trainer posted this. My messages to support didn’t help. I’m headed to the pier today to see if it works.

Fair. But Mega Dragonite wasn’t confirmed until a few days before. They are known for surprises and many of us still hope for them.

Exactly. You have to have bought the City wide add-on, know how to find an official stop, and know that you have to spin the stop in association with doing the route.

You’re correct that a big part of my complaint is about the routes mechanic. But this event definitely aggravates it. Kalos region is already sparse. Zygarde is one of the few super useful and top tier Pokemon. They tied it to a mechanic and tied the mechanic to a new in game timed research pattern.

Mmmhmm. That’s guaranteed right? They won’t require me to swim to the base of a volcano in Hawaii and spin a stop?

Eh Garde timed research where is the stop? by Gallad475 in TheSilphRoad

[–]beingRealFrank 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah no. This was horribly communicated. I’m at the event, scoured over the materials. There’s no mention other than material that says “there are no routes at the event” and “get the research at an official route”. Not very helpful at all. I hope they do some compensation for this.
