First day yesterday, and all I've gotten today was ponytail and some pigey. Doing 4 miles in the park and then trotting through the business district go me a lot of catches.

How am I doing? Level 8 so far.

>Mfw I have no idea the mechanics to get maximum returns and gains from your Pokemon.

Trying to max out my Oddish before making it a gloom, that smart or is there any logic to this leveling system?

Which Pokemon should I raise? Is the power of ones I hatch from eggs affected by my level?

Please tell me there's a fix coming

>>27107476
you can save you evolves until you get the double xp item and get a shit ton of xp. evolving something only gives you 500xp? that is the same as catching 5 pidgeys

>>27107467
It's best to be on yellow anyways, simply because of it's low population.

Gym fights give most EXP, and when you're yellow you'll almost never see a yellow gym.

>>27107476
there's two schools of thought right now

>save your dust/candy until you're higher level and scrap everything you catch (slower to level but you get more dust/candy for it)

>use lucky eggs/evolving trashmons to powerlevel (uses dust/candy, but faster)

>>27107476
evolving gets you a huge amount of exp. Only evolve rattata/caterpie/weedle/pidgey lines

>>27107505
plus, I prefer battling w/ 6 mons instead of 1. so it is a winwin.

Any idea what Size and height do?

Close app, open it again and see if it's caught.

Happened to me a couple of time and they're usually caught.

>>27107530
dont know, I get rid of the smaller ones though

>>27107450
>>27107493

not a cent spend friend, catching pokemon and evolving pidgies make you climb levels like crazy.

Also there are like 9 pokestops near where I work in the shopping distinct near a river, so I just like 3 rounds around there and caught a bunch while infinitely getting more pokeballs and eggs.

Still no clue how to battle, train, or level pokemon here though.

>>27107412
Restart the app, there's a chance you might've caught it. It happens a lot to me too.

>>27107519
It doesn't take dust to evolve though?

I literally haven't been able to log in for the past 6 hours or so

Always "fails to authenticate" or just kicks me right back to entering my password again after 0.01 seconds


Why the fuck is there no "remember password" button?

Wasn't caught. Fucking game

Areas with large amounts of shaking grass don't signify anything important do they?

>>27107325
Making a simple guide for social media, what common questions should I answer? Catching, evolving, leveling up, hunting a Pokemon's footsteps, battling gyms, Pokestops, lures, obtaining Pokecoins, what else?

>>27107690
No but if you don't have a phone that has at least android 4.4 then you might want to get a new one anyway

Up to you

I can't wait for other gens to be added just so I can see some more damn diversity.

All I see on top of gyms are pidgeots, raticares, golbats, hypnos, and the occasional eeveelution

>>27107708
I don't get what the fucking point of grass is.

This girl I am friends on Facebook with posted that if you miss a pokeball throw you can get the ball back if you tap the ball. I tried it and I am assuming she is just a dumbass. Any info on something like this?

How's it looking famalam? The only thing under those are a Pinsir, Ekans and my Charmander.

Throwing curveballs is fun. Is it true you can pick up missed balls by tapping them quickly after? The few times I've tried feel like bullshit.

Valor or kys.

>>27107715
The information is out there, but just not presented well enough. Try to Walk them through it and add tips like "evolve things to level up quickly!" and so on

But you're still just as likely as usual to get shitty spawns, right? So what's the point when actually tracking down the worthwhile stuff on the list is much more effective?

There's this awesome route with about 4 PokeStops along the way.


The servers were fine when i was stationary but now when i want to get out they're fugggged.

How the fuck do you even find gastly and friends? I can't seem to find them anywhere.

>>27107852
what is ar for?

I just flew from London to New York

Hatched a shit ton of eggs
thx plane

Leveling tip.

Catch a bunch of low evo mons and wait to evolve them until you're ready to pop a lucky egg.

>>27107953
It'll track them and start reacting if you're walking in the right direction toward it. If the footsteps go down, you're close. If not, moonwalk in the opposite direction until you track it down.

>>27107928
Thunderstorms and rain are comfy, but I meant sick as in a cold sick.
Still playing though. Gotta be the very best etc

>>27107961
No idea what the formula is. I see Gastly's everywhere. I have a Haunter and 60 Gastly candy. I get a few per hour, standing on a lure.

>>27107966
it turns the camera on and off

if you turn it off, it means all you have to do is swipe upwards at any angle to catch, instead of flailing your phone around in front of your face like a retard instead of paying attention to FUCKING DRIVING

It honestly depends, I would have a good look around where you live and see what the other people are choosing. If you want easy mode choose the one which has the most gyms. If you want hard mode choose the one with the least gyms. If you know anyone in the area ask them what they chose, it's much better with friends.

Shin Megami Tensei, AKA edgy Pokemon where you recruit demons for battles. There's also basically three "teams" of law, neutral, and chaos with their own endings for each game.
Characters in the picture are the alignment characters from SMT IV in that order.
It's what Persona is a spinoff of, to clarify.

The funny thing is characters in SMT use comps, basically phones, to see and summon demons. Hell in SMT Devil Survivor they literally download an app onto their phones to do it.

>Power up before evolving
>Evolve then power up

Which option is better?

>>27108303
Not gonna lie, I have never seen someone drag a parallel and force it to work.. what about this...

Pokemon go colors are because of the primary colors, because there are 3 of them. And Digimon uses colors, like red and blue. Which means pokemon go was made to make a joke at Digimon . And the pokemon trading card game.the cards have blue red and yellow on them. More parallels to magic:the gathering which uses cards.
Cards, magic, pokemon, Digimon. Obviously it's a huge reference to the internet, and the internet means games, and internet games means the inside joke is actually......

>About the game
http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-video-games/pokemon-go/

>What is it?
Pokemon Go can be described simply as the Geocaching of Pokemon. Grab your smartphone, get some exercise, catch some mons, battle some people - the usual Pokemon gig.

>Some questions answered
http://pastebin.com/spEFYmPw
Feel free to add more to the pastebin, keep it in the OP though.

Basic info:
As you traverse the real world, as represented on the in-game map, you'll occasionally run into tufts of rustling grass. Approaching these will end with a Pokémon appearing on the map, and clicking on it will initiate a battle.

Battles aren't between two Pokémon, though. They're between a Pokémon and your ability to swipe a Poké Ball in their direction. When you engage a Poké Ball, a colored ring will appear around the opponent. These change in size after each capture attempt. Throwing a Ball during a smaller window seems to be more effective, based on our time with the game, but that's a part we're still trying to figure out.
Going near water will attract water Pokémon. Playing at night brings out more nocturnal creatures, like Clefairy and Gastly.
Hatching Eggs: Each Egg displays the number of kilometers you must walk for the Egg to hatch. In general, the more kilometers required, the rarer the Pokémon that will hatch. A notification will appear when the Egg has hatched.
Make sure you have the Pokémon GO app open while you walk. Kilometers walked when the Pokémon GO app is closed won’t count toward hatching your Eggs.
Gyms: Fight at your team's gym to train and increase it's reputation. Fight at other team's to decrease their reputation. Tap your opponent to hit them, swipe left or right to dodge attacks, once one or more blue bars are filled, tap and hold to power up your secondary attack, release when the smaller blue bar fills up. Take over other teams' gyms and put your mons in to defend them.

>>27108143
Well maybe you should download bluestacks and get your balls back. The servers cheated you first. It's only fair you cheat them back and take what is rightfully yours.

What is the number next to Pokemon moves? I read somewhere that it was the amount of times you could use the move in one battle, but that sounds retarded now that I think about it

According to that poster, Go pulls the map data from the Maps app, so, assuming it works like that using the download offline map of a selected area in Maps app should also make them accessible to Go. I did it since it's worth a shot, it took the app longer to load, but the battery life was significantly better.

>>27108492
No. It's weak, but it attacks insanely fast and very quickly fills your blue bar so that you can use your second attack.

>>27108527
>Download Google maps

It uses Google map's api so your phone will stop needing to load in your area every time.

Reminds me of how early reports said that golf courses are more likely to spawn Dragon types.
