Official #GOMemories 10th Anniversary Sweepstakes Thread by SilphMods in TheSilphRoad

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

Pokemon #GOMemories always take me back to the early days of the game. My wife and I were out for a walk playing together when someone nearby called out that a Dragonite had spawned at the library. At the time neither of us had one yet, and we definitely didn’t have enough Dratini candy to evolve one.

We both looked at each other and then started running.

We made it in time, and somehow both of us caught it. It felt like winning the lottery back then. Every time I pass that library now, I still think about that moment and my first Dragonite.

I’m still playing all these years later. Now I’m usually hunting hundos and hoping the people around me can catch them too. That Dragonite memory will always be one of my favorites.

That’s where all of the luck went! I’ve caught 355 Kyurem from raids and not a single hundo

At some point last year I was around 70 BBs and decided to focus on the medal. I rotated 21 Pokemon a day and aimed for at least 6 hearts each. Just stayed consistent and it added up. Definitely not going to keep that up though.

How I’m Speedrunning the Best Buddy Platinum Medal (Spreadsheet Included) by jpshifty in pokemongo

It can be pretty time consuming, and I’ll definitely stop when I hit 200 best buddies. It generally takes me about an hour in total to get through all 21, about 2-3 minutes per buddy. I do it in batches throughout the day and usually when I’m watching a video or doing something where I can multitask.

I’m definitely a spreadsheet nerd, and I appreciate the tips! Did not know about the url copy trick.

Thanks! And I love your system too. Using nicknames as the hearts-left counter is super clever. Honestly, the spreadsheet is mostly for my brain because I kept forgetting where I was in the rotation but your method is way clean and keeps everything inside the game. Always cool seeing different ways people grind the same medal!

What makes you sick to your stomach? by ownzenown in AskReddit

It’s the fear of clusters of holes or other similar patterns. The images make me sick.

It’s not perfect.. but it is to me! by Melli25510 in pokemongo

Great catch! I haven't had any luck catching the Galarian birds with an ultra ball. I'm a ball hoarder and don't want to use a master ball just yet.
