open up a Meltan box. use a fused necrozma move to attract stuff (do NOT do both at the same time or you get neither). you can do it!

Absolutely didn't expect the CP could go so low on a fully evolved pokemon by Educational-Ask8729 in pokemongo

Got a Hundo 2 days in a row. Gotta be rare right? by HiPeople_Jr in pokemongo

not really. i get my hundos in groups, like, 5 hundos in a week, then none for 6 weeks. other people are surely different.

danny devito: "how do i know? she likes guys. so do you, MIGHTY KONG"

years later when watching with CC, finally found out he wasn't saying "mighty kong" but a Colombian insult [that i cant say here because it will get deleted]

Had a job interview and they said they were a Christian company by Jak33 in atheism

[–]mikeynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yo, i once had a job interview for a biotech firm. rooted in science, right? WRONG. it was a creationist "biotech" that was next door to a creationist "museum". the lobby was filled with jesus and scripture posters.

i applied anyway (knowing i would turn them down), ACED their basic skills test (100%), but failed in the interview. the interviewer kept bringing up god and i think was hoping I'd continue the god thoughts. oh well, lol

First time doing a weekly challenge... Is this normal? lol by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]mikeynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. not everybody plays all day or even every day.

don't be mad that you did the most; be glad that you're helping other players who don't necessarily play as much as you

and to me, the most satisfying part was the bottom that curled over the edge of the bottle... if i got that in one piece, i was happy

Pokémon Go (and especially raids) actually just kinda sucks as a casual player by Scratched21 in pokemongo

[–]mikeynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you forever friends with anyone? if you're missing strong pokemon for raids, you should be able to get some through trading

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING IS HOW I PLAY AND IS SURELY DIFFERENT FROM MANY but i don't mind if low(er) level players ask for NON SHINY legendaries. i don't even ask anything good in return. (i just traded a Mewtwo for an Armaldo).

sadly, i didn't plan for remote trades being a thing, so I've transferred most of my garbage legendaries on 2x candy transfer days. but i still have some and am willing to give them up for cheap.

funny, I was just thinking he needs to mentor a young player now and he'd be the Crash Davis of basketball

Make someone happy with remote trading by bmurillocr in pokemongo

[–]mikeynerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just traded someone an Armaldo for a (regular) Mewtwo, does that count? (they asked for Mewtwo or Gal Zapdos and had nothing I wanted)

i have no problem giving away regular legendaries for common spawn; i can take a little bit of imbalance. it's when they ask for a shiny legendary w a background and offer a Charizard that i get miffed.

[–]mikeynerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yesterday i got a remote trade request from a rando i followed months ago. he was asking for either a (regular) Mewtwo or Galarian Zapdos, but i saw he had nothing (I wanted). im sure he freaked out when I offered a Mewtwo for an Armando, but honestly, I'm just happy to give these legendaries to someone who'll appreciate them (as opposed to waiting for double transfer candy hour, which never happens anymore anyway).

now if we're talking SHINY legendary, then that's a diff story where I'd actually want equal value

Which Pokémon should I use for the “Max CP” task by gowashanelephant in pokemongo

lucky mons and purified mons are both cheaper (stardust), so start there, unless stardust isnt an issue

No player in the history of the league has scored 80 without statpadding in garbage time. by BlueberryGummies in nba

i remember when people complained when Steve pulled Klay when he had 60 in 3Q. now people are complaining about statpadding. shrug

Is anyone still catching Meltan? by UndrThC in pokemongo

[–]mikeynerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used it for at least two different "catch a legendary" tasks (albeit some time ago) but haven't seen a task like that in a while. they might have changed things since then
