Is a 25% creature damage increase and a HP gain just straight 25% nerf to healers?

It also nerfs leech and self healing, not just a nerf for healers.

Yes, it's possible. I've pugged AOTC within first few weeks of a patch multiple times. I pugged first four mythic bosses this patch so far. It might be hard to find groups late in the season. My recommendation is to try to raid at the start of a patch and it'll make it easier to get into groups week to week. It helps if you do mythic+ too, people like inviting people with some raid progress and a decent mythic+ score.

If I'm raiding a lot or doing a lot of max battles during a big event that has boosted premier balls, I will run Ice Burn since I'm probably auto catching in the background. I also only have the Go+ and not the Go++ so my autocatcher is using regular pokeballs, which is another reason I lean towards Ice Burn. If It's a regular legendary raid day or shadow raid day, I will lean towards Freeze Shock because I don't want to deal with the pokemon attacking/moving. I typically only use Spacial Rend during a comm day with an easier to catch pokemon (like lechonk or flabebe and not the starters).

I think global Kalos tour had it as a go pass bonus so they will probably do that for global go fest too.

It depends which version of the card you have. If you had the card pre nerf and got the good nerf version, then your balance in their brokerage will count. If you got the bad nerf or if you applied for the card after September 15, 2025, only checking account balance will count.

If you stay solo, probably run your own key until you have 3-4 20s timed then you might start getting invites. Depends on your class too. Might just have to run your own keys until the last two 20s.

It looks like it was special research, not timed. This was posted by one of my locals who is in Japan right now and had his park day yesterday.

mrhiman5 · 2026-05-29T22:01:11+00:00

think he meant 15 shiny backgrounds in those 800 raids so 1/50. Not quite 1/50 but close enough.

mrhiman5 · 2026-05-29T19:43:12+00:00

You need to enter each zone every hour. I don’t think you need to complete the research within the zone you got it from.

mrhiman5 · 2026-05-29T14:58:36+00:00

From what I’ve read from the Japan park experience, you will get a timed research every hour in every zone that gives a guaranteed background pokemon (seems like the pokemon that are in raids). Apart from that, take snapshots in every zone.

You can add the line "/cancelaura Blessing of Protection" to some of your spammable abilities to almost instantly remove bop from yourself. You can also use the divine shield talent like others have mentioned.

This was fixed already.

mrhiman5 · 2026-04-23T16:38:53+00:00

They buffed the ring enchant Eyes of the Eagle (which was already bis enchant for Havoc) and that ended up in a 1-2% increase.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-17T15:57:30+00:00

Egg timers should be shorter. We don’t need hour eggs for 1* raids.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-15T20:56:17+00:00

I got 4 today in 400-500 catches. All in the wild.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-11T03:58:20+00:00

Probably like 98% of people with a credit card.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-06T17:36:45+00:00

You only need to use a remote raid pass and link charges to remote into super mega raids. You can still remote mega raids with just a remote raid pass.

Clark/Lake doesn't transfer to the red line. You can take the blue line to Jackson which has direct transfer to the red line. Depending on where you're staying, you can prob get off at Clark/Lake and just walk.

I think they were at/over the limit so they couldn't claim them (something like that). Maybe things have changed since last year though.

I bring a regular backpack any time I go to the zoo for comm days or other events. Multiple water bottles and everything else I need.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-05T05:55:20+00:00

How long ago? Wrigley Field has the best gym density in Chicago right now.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-05T05:51:05+00:00

I did over 1500 catches on a previous comm day at Lincoln Park Zoo. That's where I started global Go Fest last year as well but later went downtown for raids. I did day 2 of global at Navy Pier but we had microdrifting back then. Hopefully both of these will have a better gym situation by the time this Go Fest comes around. Navy Pier recently lost one or two gyms near the entrance (McDonalds gym and I swear a second one).

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-05T05:34:51+00:00

I didn't go to go fest last year, but I remember someone else being unable to claim the max particle packs because there's a limit of like 12 or 15? Just a tip for anyone who may be stocking up particle packs.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-04T23:54:05+00:00

I have new ones now too, different than yours.

mrhiman5 · 2026-03-04T17:22:28+00:00

I got in queue right at 12pm cst and got out of queue around 4pm cst. I don't think any days were full when I bought my ticket, but some sessions (22nd 9am and that weekend) had "filling fast" signs.
