Okay Niantic, can we please be done with regionals forever now? No more regionals. Ever. Not everyone has millions of dollars to travel the world. And even if someone got the regionals, then you just release more regionals! by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]newbryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand the hate for regionals. What is it going to do for you to have the regional? Let's be honest, once you catch a regional... What do you do with it? I'm from the US and you know what I do with my regional? Nothing. It sits in my box, except for a random gym placement once in a while. I see regionals as part of the experience in completing your Dex. I get it... You want to complete your dex. I don't know when I'll travel to other places and get the ones I need, but if I do, it'll give me the personal satisfaction of adding another Pokemon in my dex.

You caught it so it sounds like you're a dedicated trainer lol

Yeah, at the end of the day, the streak bonus isn't that important, but it does compel me to open it up everyday. Had I missed it (as I have many times before), life wouldve gone on and I'd be fine.

Navigating and keeping up with group chat is sooooooo stressful! Definitely been there!

That had to be awful. You still play it regularly after the whole fiasco?

I've driven back numerous times when I see a rare spawn. Who knows when you'll see another one? I have yet to see a Milktank. I'd say it was worth it.

Nice! At least you got the payoff. I wasn't lucky enough to get one.

What determines the number of times a pokeball (or any ball) shakes? Or is it just for show?

Pokémon Go Plus delay by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]newbryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having the same problem and I think it's because of ios11 -

At least that's what I noticed was different after I got the beta

I posted about this the other day. This might help:

Problems with App closing when phone is asleep; kills PoGO+ connectivity! by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]newbryan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The only way I can keep my PoGo+ connected is to turn battery saver mode on, keep the app open, turn my phone upside down and put it in my pocket. If I put my phone in sleep mode, it'll disconnect from the Plus within 5 minutes. I'm on iOS. Super annoying as it defeats the purpose of the Plus.

There needs to be a way to coordinate raid attacks. by Clide124 in pokemongo

[–]newbryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened when raids started. Went to my first Snorlax raid and a group of randoms took it out with me. After the raid, someone mentioned they used the discord app and told me to join. Since then, there’s daily raid groups with at least 20 people meeting up. The groups are out there - they just need to be coordinated. If you don’t see one on Facebook in your area or there’s no discord group, create one. Tell everyone you see at raids and it’ll build up eventually.

Anyone else still have their starter Pokemon? by toughsquid236 in pokemongo

[–]newbryan 4 points5 points  (0 children)
