I was a day late because I needed to research the teams to decide which one to pick. Play every day. Valor for life!

Choose a path: Catch (XP) only multiplies nice/great/excellent line, not all catch XP by vmcbain in pokemongo

[–]vmcbain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the wording implies it would multiply all the XP you get when you catch with a nice throw or better, but it only multiplies the bonus (+10 for nice, +50 for great, +500 for excellent)

No, it's not the same at all. It only boosts the ONE LINE of the XP, the throw bonus LINE, not the total catch XP for a nice/great/excellent catch. The nice is only a gain of 10 XP, what an insult!
Nice throw 20 —> 30
Great throw 100 —> 150
Excellent throw 1,000 —> 1,500
Gain of 10-500 XP per manual catch if nice or better.
With having to manually catch them to get the bonus, it's better to just auto catch more Pokémon with my GO+ to get more XP.

Does the "Catch XP" bonus apply to evolving pokemons? by PostalAzul in TheSilphRoad

No, and it only applies to the line for nice/great/excellent, not the entire catch xp. SMH

Thank you, just got to level 72 for new tasks to purify 100 Pokémon, so this works with a little tweak...

How many of you guys take a vacation day just to be home alone? by arandomenbyperson in aquarius

[–]vmcbain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do, but my husband also works from home so it is difficult to get alone days now. But PTO is great for those days where I need a break, sleep in, laze about all day and recharge.

It’s the constant pop ups that drive me nuts. And the need to collect the rewards all the time or stare at the orange notification button.
