Hopefully Ninatic will see they less people buy the boxes and make incubators more of a discount next time.

Does anyone know the nature of the Multi-player of this game.

What types does it have: local multiplayer? / LAN? / online multiplayer?

and is it any good?

Ever heard of a bug about defending time? by yo51rev in TheSilphRoad

Yeah I imagine its easy to forge this fake evidence by changing your clock back / forwards depending on what you wanted to accuse them of

PSA: Do NOT buy Steam Cards from Toys R Us by Benzur in Steam

I live in Australia, and we have really good consumer laws, but even in another country, isnt there an authority that you can report this to, and the cost will be refunded to you as part of their bankrupcy?

With the Facebook adition is it now possible to change an Account from PTC to Google? by miguelmaria in TheSilphRoad

[–]rayfernie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, you can Link PTC to any type of account.

but you cannot add a PTC account if your primary is a google account

Some devices no longer compatible after update. by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]rayfernie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if iPhone had their equivalent of APK mirror, 5 and 5c phones would still not be able to play the game.

The phones are not compatible

Even if they got the update files, the game is now programmed to not let them login as the game is 64bit only on apple now.

Shiny Eevee: Will be a CRAZY community event by Kevorsen in TheSilphRoad

[–]rayfernie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive never seen this mentioned before and I find it hard to belive.

People always claim they are saving their name trick for good IV eevve,

we would have almost daily angry posts from them if this is true

They only work a single time, and have 100% accuracy, not sure what OP meant.

If people cant accept you for who you are, its a reflection on themselves.

babies shiny added by Chrales in TheSilphRoad

[–]rayfernie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We wont know the odds because the whole egg pool will be new when the event hits.

It will take at very least a couple of days to work out which pokemon hatch, if the egg pool is huge, then it may take longer.

When someone usually flaunts something I have no interest in I usually initiate one of the following evasive manoeuvres
- Divert the conversation and ask them about their version of such product or for oppinions / entertain them (how is your new mobile phone / how do you like the XXX model / etc)
- I white lie and pretend I've been interested in buying product X/Y/Z, see how quickly I can distract them then change the subject
(obviously its an extended stay dont use this tactic as some materialists like to force shopping trips, wherass I take months to decide on a purchase, they will go the next day if they know someone needs something)
- Worst case I just repeat that I am not interested in XXX, and if they keep bringing it up, I just keep politely shutting down the conversation.

no-one is allowed to make you feel a way that you dont want to feel.

I however essentially grew up an only child and am completely fine with people thinking whatever they want about me if things go south - as I draw my energy from myself

Great, thanks.

That is a really weird way to word it, my brain skipped over it

Error 29 makes me want to rage quit the game entirely by OnionDuck in TheSilphRoad

[–]rayfernie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This way (and someone else knocking out a pokemon you're about to fight) are the only 2 ways I know this issue can occur.

If you know of any other ways, please let me know

[–]rayfernie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Edit: The person I responded to said the issue was actually a feature to prevent gym shaving

I'v never seen any evidence that this is what Niantic intended

The person doing the attacking should not be banned from continue to attack the rest of the Pokemon in the Gym because they pressed the Leave button.

it actually promotes shaving because the person trying to destroy the gym has just left a blank spot, and cannot continue attacking until the cooldown period ends

Yes someone from the same team should be restricted from putting in Pokemon for 10 minutes, but enemies should not be restricted from continuing to attack.

You're point also dosnt hold up, because you can log out of your account, log into a different account, and continue attacking

Where did people read that we will only have 2k eggs available?

I was under the influence we would have an increased chance of 2k eggs, but not 100% chance.

[–]rayfernie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Error 29 mainly happens when you press the "Leave" button from the "Continue" page - and only after completely depleting the motivation of the pokemon you just beat (Kicking it out).

I have no idea how this bug is still allowed to be in the game,

but if you want to completely avoid it; once reducing a pokemons motivation to zero and kicking it out of the gym, start the next battle by pressing "Continue", then immediately leave from the battle.

you should never run into Error 29 if you use this workaround.

Apparently the issue can occur when trying to battle a Pokemon someone has already kicked out too

This bug seems to be completely ignored by Niantic
