Time to kill myself

Boy it sure is swell living in a town where my pokestops do nothing. Already out of pokeballs. :/

I saw an articuno on my radar. Nearly crashed my car trying to screenshot ky phone.
All in all I never got the articuno

>>27100249
I don't believe you

>>27100237
>3 paws
might as well be in North Korea

>>27100249
Well then post the fucking screenshot

Anyone else from Maine here?
The entire state seems to be taken over by Instinct

>>27100249
bullshit

I don't understand this "we need to go into someone's backyard for a Pokemon" meme.
Are they talking about rustling leaves and the nearby Pokemon list? I have never seen that correlate at all.
Are they talking about Pokemon that spawn on the map? You can fight them just by touching them.

>>27100262
>>27100249
It was probably a fearow

Niantic confirmed legends are events only at the time being. Nice try though

So gyms are fucked right? Most people getting the 1 HP glitch still? I can't even start a gym fight as it just zooms in on the map and gets stuck playing the music on loop with no pokemon appearing.

>>27100277

>tfw already made friends over this game

Does biking work well for this?

Its hot as fuck all day long here

>>27100301
Just evolved my eevee into a 720-40 something Jolteon, but its XS. Should I invest star dust in it or let it rot?
normal attack is like 5 damage as well.

>>27100301
You can't breed if you're too fast.

>>27100313
who bikes over 20mph?

>>27100277
You need to be within x distance of their real-world location to trigger an encounter. Some people want to trespass to get pokemon

Does anyone live somewhere where they're not having trouble finding starters? I'm in desperate need of charmanders. I caught a charmeleon at a Wal-Mart parking lot yesterday. Will another one spawn there today?

>>27100301
according to Ingress users you can travel under 35-37 mph without any issues, just slow down near stops to be sure you don't move out of range

>>27100313
>You can't breed if you're too fast.

True in Go as it is in life

>>27100242
Niantic should get on this and give 2 pokeballs a day as a sign in bonus. Need some type of incentive to keep this game lasting longer than 2 weeks.

so is there a guide to follow regarding what pokemon to keep and what to transfer?

things like effectiveness of attacks and wether i should have big or small pokemon, i mean.

I have a different problem with this game

I can't seem to log in using trainer club and I get an authentication error .
How do I fix?

>>27100324
Went out for my daily Bulbasaur. Dunno if they'e on a timer or it's just luck but only ever see 1/day

>>27100237
>he doesn't know how to locate pokemon based on compared distance to other pokemon

>>27100324
I caught a charmander at a 7/11 earlier. Maybe it's linked to urban buildings like that somehow?

>>27100295
I should really start getting peoples names and numbers, I've had chill chats and adventures but never talk to em.

>get free bus transit because of uni (not free, I suppose, since it's included in tuition but w/e)
>sit on busses all day going all around town being chauffeured to lots of stops and mons
Life is Beautiful™

Why is my map so fucked? It keeps randomly changing locations when I'm just stationary at home, and when I walked to a pokespot it kept fucking up and putting me like a block too far away.

I've given it full permissions and tried to disable mock locations but the only option in the developer thing was to "select mock location app". And when I clicked on it the only option was "nothing"

>>27100323
maybe Niantic will allow people to remove locations that would lead to trespassing, Ohio State has a pokestop right in the middle of their football stadium which currently can't be reached without jumping the fences

>>27100361
Sounds pretty comfy

Nice

Is there some sort of cap to CP, or will I be doomed to chase after all of the people who have way more time to play this game than me?

I'm at level fucking eight and the highest level pokemon I caught was 180 CP.

There's the usual strange bus people, but that's really just part of the experience.

>>27100388
Instinct or Mystic. Valor is for retards.

>>27100375
The XP curve is a bitch, you'll catch up without much trouble.

I've walked 30km in 3 days because of PoGo and my body is now demanding no more. I'm way too out of shape for this game.

Anyone found out where electric types spawn?

Is it better/advantageous to join the team that controls almost all the gyms in my neighborhood?

>>27100370
Someone from Mystic or Instinct kick those fuckers out, they don't deserve it.
for that matter, can we get a group of Mystics to just dominate the whole fucking city, please?

>>27100388
Go for Mystic. We managed to take over my University.

Proptip for everyone here:

Pokemon Go uses Google Maps API, so every time you load the world, you are using more Mobile data than you need to. You can download Google Maps, and make your region available offline, so that Go doesn't have to use the Google Maps API every time, and save a lot of data. This also makes it a lot friendlier on your battery.

>>27100323
But, you don't know for sure a Pokemon is there at all until it spawns a 3D model on the map, and one there is a model on the map you can tap it no matter how close it is.

>>27100388
Instinct or Valor, ignore >>27100398

Mystic is way way waay too big right now because of Reddit and social media stars like pewdiepie

Don't be part of the problem

It's a server glitch. Basically the servers are being overloaded and it can't catch up. The pokemon stays alive essentially because of lag

>>27100414
I finally get what you nerds mean by this, thanks nerd.

My game doesn't spend the 10 extra seconds loading the map it just loads with the map.

I use the damn incense but nothing comes.

Must I be quiet waiting, or must I be walking and moving all the time? Both times, nothing comes.

>>27100461

You get lots of up votes for sharing your CUUHHRAAAZZYYY Pokemon GO stories. Hahaha I jumped the fence into a prison I'm so crazy. Caught an Electabuzz so it was worth it tho.

So what determines a Nice/Great/Excellent throw? I thought it was getting the green line as close to the white as possible, or getting it as small as possible, and that would regularly get me Nice!, but then I just tossed a ball without caring at a 10CP Rattata and I got a great, even though the circle wasn't anywhere in particular.

>>27100487
I dont get this either.

Also, when I throw a curveball and get a nice catch when it I only get the XP bonus for the catch so the curve is wasted

>>27100487
You get a Nice/Great/Excellent throw by getting the ball in the circle.
Big circle = Nice
Half-sized circle = Great
Nearly-Pokeball-sized circle = Excellent

So, if I play on bluestacks using my main account I use on phone too, and travel reasonable distances into the nearest city 4km from where I live, is there any possible way they'll find out and ban me? It looks impossible to me that Nyantic could understand if the device we're playing from uses a fake gps as system gps through lucky pathcer, given we travel the same path we travel daily. (analysing the program directories that are used by a mobile device through data seems a bit like a privacy violation to me, nothing a big company like Nyantic would even consider imo)
or is this possible?

I went to my Uni campus and captured a gym for Instinct, but soon after I left I think it got gangbanged by Valorfags.

This isn't confirmed or anything but I'm pretty sure the number of other users near you affects your chance of finding rare pokemon. A hundred or so people were at out city's park and a 1300 Dragonite showed up, watched a fb livestream of it

What do I do once I catch all the poke in my area. It feels like a grindfest now, only getting 100xp per catch. Do I power up? Evolve them?

How do gyms work? I see level 1 2 3 etc. some gyms only give me one Pokemon some make me use a team. Is it real time? Do I just keep tapping the enemy over and over? No potions or heals during battle?

I went out looking for a cubone that spawned 3 points out from me, until I realized that the game was glitched out on me the whole time mid-walk. It tracked my position, but couldn't stay connected to the server. Missed out on the cubone.

My area doesn't have great coverage. That said, why could it have worked last night for my entire neighborhood, but not this morning?

Right now, this is the base game. Trading will be added later, along with pokemon from future gen over time. That and there's the events we havn't seen yet, and dunno how they'll handle.

Not to mention as folks get to higher levels, they get access to more. Such as 15 getting great balls. Curious what's at 50 and 100.

12 gets you great balls. When you hit level 12, they give you 20 great balls as a reward. 20 gets you ultra balls.

I assume 50 or 100 would be master ball

blue: team autists, full of neckbeards but you'll probably find a few solid gyms around town.
yellow: often thought to be rare, fucking insufferable manchildren etc.
red: normies and bros.

You should just read their speeches and decide which one you agree with the most. Should be valor because nurture > nature

How can I look at high grass areas of my town but not going to look by myself? Is there a map anywhere?

Not necessarily true. It really depends more on the place and what type of environment it is. I took a family vacation to Florida (from texas) and I found nothing much different than just a higher frequency of water types.

Btw pic related is Magic Kingdom. Shoutout to all the peeps putting lures out there!

Yo my 10 km egg just disappeared from the incubator a few steps before hatching is this game fucking serious right now?

>>27100803
The first time I went to the park by me I took my camera (I'm a nature photographer) because I was embarrassed to be seen holding my phone in the air looking for pokemon.

This park is usually dead, mostly old people from the retirement home but there were DOZENS of people all playing this game. Groups of teens, some husband wifes and even the occasional solo person.

I still feel awkward walking around looking for Pokemon but there's a ton of casuals out there right now doing it without any regret

Just started but i was a big ingress player. Seeing lots of portals i submitted for ingress became pokestops with the pic i took and the little easter egg of my keychain in each pic

So, Im guessing like with ingress most people pick blue? is there a source saying the percent of each team yet?

(pic related) does GO have a web based map view where i can scroll around and see which gyms are owned by which team?


Currently, for pokestops im scanning the Ingress Intel map since the stops are the exact same as the portals. Unfortunately it seems like they got rid of many big clusters and placed just single ones there instead, and lots of the stops have the wrong pics and names attached but the right location of another place.. I dont know what made them decide which places got to be gyms and not just normal stops.. maybe its spread to be as close to a grid as possible...

>>27100772
So anyone that doesn't have easy access to landmarks can just go fuck themselves?

The landmark can be literally anything, there's a bunch in my neighbourhood that are just retarded like "multicoloured whirlpool" which is just like this little piece of shit art installation out the front of a school. I'm sure if you're nice enough and explain how sparse your area is there's a chance they'll be accommodating.

Is there a speed cap for seeing/catching pokemon/pokestops.? Considering using my cities local free bus to hit up every landmark in my city.

If you're quick about swiping you can get pokestops I think, but you have to be really quick. You probably don't get any distance for your eggs on the bus, and I don't know if you'll really encounter many Pokemon, but I'm not sure about that.

There's nothing programmed stopping you from getting Pokestops at high speed, though.

>>27100857
I noticed they pulled the info for the local mall of ingress since the stops they have listed are gone.

Depending on the speed, pokemon can and will auto break AND flee if you get too far away from where they popped up. Happened a bunch to me when my family was driving on the highway for a couple hours.

Except that pokemon arent "first one gets it". They pop up at certain locations but everyone can catch one. This is why thee are stpries online about giving tips on where they saw a rare pokemon, because if they are lucky it might still be there for others and not despawned.

Probably because only having one appear and dissapear when caught could destroy a group of people trying to hunt together "that was MY scyther" etc

looks like i gotta be yellow to help them out.
Red sound like competition is their goal
Blue sounds nice but but overpopulated
Yellow tru underdog. Poor yellow...
now, dumb questions but i did just start:

Havent evolved anything yet; i catch everything and send the dupes away to get candies to evolve them..
I have a pidgy and pidgeotto, and enough candies to evolve the pidgy; just saw tho that the higher evolution takes the same candies.

1: Should i evolve the lesser one? Does evolving give special benefits or items?

2: I send away the dupes which have less CP. Figure ill place the strongest in gyms.. Is there a philosophy on which pokemon i should keep in general as time goes on?

>calling one particular team the team of autists
>not realising you're the autist for assigning characteristics to a completely arbitrary choice

>2016
>being piss yellow

>>27100215
help, help!
I have 3 pidgey but I don't know which ones to keep
1: CP25, quick attack, air cutter
2: CP25, quick attack, aerial ace (biggest)
3: CP10, quick attack, twister (smallest)

How big is the CP bump from evolution typically?

>>27100266
. Where do you live ? For me it's Valor and Instinct but no mystic

ah yes, arbitrary tribalism

>>27100995
As far as I can tell, CP doubles during evolution, so having a maxed out pre-evo and then evolving it would be the most efficient, since catching loads of the pre-evo is easier (giving you a greater chance at a higher % of the max CP)

I'm not 100% on all this, but that's my understand at this point, someone might want to confirm or deny.

>>27100995
In this game a pokemon's potential is entirely based on your trainer level, evolving the pidgey is a waste unless you want another pidgeot

Is it better/advantageous to join the team that controls almost all the gyms in my neighborhood?

>>27100995
Do not pick yellow, so many game of thrones memes.

>1: Should i evolve the lesser one? Does evolving give special benefits or items?

Evolving multiplies CP so evolved will almost always be better. But at your level don't worry about it. Up to 12-15 just fill out your pokedex and stock up on candies and stardust.

>2: I send away the dupes which have less CP. Figure ill place the strongest in gyms.. Is there a philosophy on which pokemon i should keep in general as time goes on?

High CP > good moveset >>> type >>>>>>> everything else.

>>27100834

Fucking bullshit, this team shit is dumb as fuck. I hate gyms anyway but still.

Man why couldn't they make it more like a Pokemon game and just have this dumb pvp gym shit just be some shoehorned shit on the side?

>>27100930
when i played ingress, i knew it was just research gathering user-submitted local landmarks for a future game.. honestly i hoped itd be an original property but whatever..
Its funny how they took all the info from ingress.. Same pics i took, but i think the large dense clusters were simplified. Used to farm certain areas but now theres only 1-3 instead of 20 on the same block and the one thats left has the wrong info, so probably it just averaged them out. Dunno what determined which got to be a gym tho.

>>27101009
Just throw them away.

>>27101009
they learn different moves when they evolve anyway bro

>>27101069
I considered a Nuzlocke run but then my first catch was a 10CP Rattata and my second was a 17CP Rattata and that went straight into the candy-machine with that first faggot rat

>>27101084
What would the point of that be?
There are a lot of bug types where I am, but I still don't know if I should give up on the chance I encounter someone with a dragon type

>>27100813

Pre evo, high cp with the least of the white line above the pokemon being filled, the remaining part is how much you can train it so a mon with a half filled line with 200 is better than an almost finished line doduo with 230 cp

Will my phone vibrate when an egg hatches?
Also will my phone lock when I'm on low-power mode?

>>27101098
Those pidgeys are fodder. You transfer all but one, use the candies to evolve the one for free XP and then transfer the pigeotto because unless it's 500+CP then it's worthless too

>>27101049
I've found the mons that I was catching easily with regular balls are now starting to break out

It's almost like it was programmed in to make people desperate so that they have to buy balls

>>27101071

I picked Yellow precisely because Blue and Red are fucking everywhere. I might not be able to hold a gym for as long as them but at least I get more opportunities to actually go for them.

>blue: team autists
It is a known fact that instinct = autistic. Meanwhile red will lure you to a pokestop in the night and will rob and/or rape you.

>>27100458
The open list is sorted by distance, so the further down it is the the farther away.

So if you start walking in a direction and it rises through the list you are likely getting closer. When you get to two steps, then you can do some real triangulation using the 3 circles/diameter trick.

>>27101117
What level would you even have to be to get a 500 cheese pizza pidgeotto? I'm 8 and the highest it looks like it can go is 300.

>>27101067

I have to keep making really long farming trips in town to keep enough pokeballs for rare captures.

In my town thee is a circle of 6 pokestops and by the time you get to the last one, the firsthas refreshed, ceating an endless loop. Fortunately im used to walking so my body can handle walking in a 2km loop maybe 10 times to get back to 50 balls.

Is anyone else finding that getting razz berries, revives, potions is too easy and are useless compafed to the pokeballs?

>>27101035
>game of throne memes
explain.
thanks for the advice


shame i cant find ghosts in a graveyard, but designating cemeteries as a game mechanic might have gotten niantic some bad press. theyre already full of stops usually cuz those were my farming locations in ingress


Funny driving around and seeing people stopped at green lights, half pulled over but still blocking the road, pulling up to a building then away, and walking in pairs. While farming for 30 min i saw at least 50 people also playing. Sucks a good portion of that was while driving tho

>tfw literally NEVER been able to take over a gym because of the 1HP bug
It's honestly every single time. There's a gym directly across the road from my house that should be eternally mine, but the 300CP scrub golbats and pidgeottos won't die thanks to this shitty fucking bug

It looks like you guys are having fun playing Pokemon GO, huh? I've been having a blast. I figured out how to spoof my location and I can go to any pokestop and any gym, any time. These legit GO fags don't know what hit them, I strike the gyms at 2:00 am while in the comfort of my own home eating doritos. Soon enough I'm going to take over every gym in every town in my state without having to move at all. This is what these fuckers get for not giving love to people in rural areas, now my whole state will pay the price and I will take over. Also I can place down lures in the hood and make niggers have to gather up and there will be guaranteed conflict, also young unsuspecting children will wander into the hood. I love Pokemon GO!

>>27100684

>>27101214

Huh you're right! Never noticed. I thought I was having fun taunting him.

Was out for another 5ish hours today. Rained a few times, was hot and sticky, bleh.

I managed to add myself to two yellow gyms nearby and cash in on 20 gold, not bad I guess.

Also, an unlikely thing happened considering I live in a small town in Germany where the game isn't even out yet officially. I ran into two valor guys, one was about as far as I am in the game and the other guy was a bit ahead. When he told me his name I recognized him from temporarily owning a gym not far from my house.

Funny stuff.

Alas, I haven't been able to log in (using PTC) for about an hour now. Maybe the servers are down or it's just me or I don't know. Just can't get in anymore. Game was a bit wonky today already compared to how smooth it ran yesterday

Might be other reasons, perhaps your phone is dropping out or your gps is wandering too far which is annoying.
Tapping slow enough for each animation to play helped me, as did staying closer to the gym.
Sometimes some people can't handle another player joining the battle, or someone has defeated or added a Pokémon while you're battling.
Switching apparently helps.

Will you get banned for sideloading apk?

>>27101212
I've seen way more Instinct shitting on other teams than Mystic and Valor fighting.

>>27101313
>Also, an unlikely thing happened considering I live in a small town in Germany where the game isn't even out yet officially.
It's fucking crazy isn't it? Living in a small german Kaff too and people show up one after another when I'm popping up a lure.

My wife's g3 does this. Restart your phone and make sure high accuracy GPS is enabled.

Anyone have the glitch where you try to catch a Pokemon, it's invisible and it freezes when the pokeball hits the Pokemon?

I don't know about CP, but I tend to see Golbat at night and just regular Zubat during the day.

>wake up the next day and my gym has indeed been taken

>the gym has been reclaimed by the reds, but now there are three more yellow gyms in the area

It just takes one spark of resistance, instinctbros.

JUSTICE, LIKE LIGHTNING

can someone explain gym? How does a gym level up? Why do some gyms let me use a team of Pokemon and others only let me use 1?

Its 4 in the morning. A mystic fag and a valor fag have been exchanging the gym at the park across the road for the last two hours.

>Implying Instinct are the autists

>>27101320
People have reached level 18-20 at this point, mostly from grinding lure spots in cities in cars with mates.
You're doing good for level 11.

>>27101377
Go down there, unless you go at a weird time it's probably packed with other teens/twenties playing Go. Especially if you put a lure in there.

I picked Instinct because I don't want to join the most popular team.

Also instinct sounds cooler than mystic.

And Zapdos is my favorite of the bird trio.

So, three reasons.

>be smack dab in the middle of sprawling suburb
>install game on phone and start it
>catch starter
>only thing on the entire fucking range scanner is a single weedle, 3 tracks away
>immediately quit game, fire up bluestacks, install GPS spoofer, drop my character onto a 4-stop stack in the city, and harvest infinite items while pokemon spawn inside my range every 2 minutes

This game is doomed.

>>27101364
i picked valor because the silhouette looked like a qt gril

Guys, guys.

All teams are autistic.

>>27101388
If the gym has more than 1 pokemon you get to use a team.
If you battle a gym from your faction you help level it up.

>go babysit a friend's cats
>find two meowths right outside his house

I named them after his cats. This game is realistic as fuck, it's great. I also walked by a double pokelure spot, it was full of other players. This game is so popular.

>haha you're all stupid, look at my completely neutral, and therefore correct, opinions
go away

>>27101328
Well instinct is literally swarming the citys I was in the last three days and yet it's the team I had by far the least amount of actual face to face contact with. They tend to high tail the fuck out if they see one comming

>>27101404
Menomonee Falls?

>>27100473

You get a pokemon once every 5 minutes with an incense if you´re standing still. If you move you may get more but thats from random encounters, not the incense

>>27101395

I almost picked Valor because the girl looked like a short-haired, long-legged tomboy cutie, but ultimately picked Instinct because everyone was Valor and Mystic was being hella gay with the whole "I am enlightened by my own intelligence" bit.

Also Zapdos is my fave bird.

>>27101390
Well guess who's home being a creep and posting on a chinese imageboard while 2 cool dudes are out late at night having fun?

This game is weird.

I come home, I'm sweaty, I'm exhausted, my legs, ass, feet hurt and I think "I'd rather play a "real" game and be comfy at home"

But then an hour later or something I feel like "hey, I should go play some go and catch more pokemon / level up / check on the gym nearby" and so on.

>>27101394
Play how you want.

>>27101212
My thoughts exactly. While it's fun to watch the mess unravel itself with them warring about I just want to have fun catching my favourite Mons and maybe making friends.

PG is leading me into a really ghetto part of the city.

Let's hope I survive.

I don't care I'm not fucking cancerous left fag reeeee

>>27101418
That's any game dude

>went into nearby city
>never seen a Lure in use before
>decide to try it out
>round the corner
>fucking dozens of of people sat there glaring at their phones shouting about Poliwhirls
>return around the corner and go in the other direction

Fuck that. I think I'm too autistic for this game

I think it's more that most Instinct players chose Instinct because they didn't want to be on the most populous team so, naturally, they're usually just doing this sort of thing solo. They go in, do their bit and move on before the groups of Valors and Mystics return.
