how does adding spots in Googles maps work?

how long does it take for it to go from a Google maps spot to becoming a Pokespot in Pokemon Go?

Just caught this lil guy

Does this count as a strong mon or no? I kinda want to keep it and slowly get him stronger, but if it's a dud then I don't wanna waste my time.

>>27126271
except devs and google engineers have said it doesn't

this is the problem, thousands of people are trying shit and sometimes the game crashes and sometimes the game works so they think they found a solution. this is how medicinal quackery survives to this day

I sometimes see patches of grass that sparkle gold instead of green, what do those mean?

Also, any good ways to quickly accumulate stardust?

How the hell do you guy accumulate so much stardust? Gyms? Do you catch every Pokemon you see?

>>27126392
>Not catching every Pokemon you see
You're playing the game very wrong.

>>27126412

>what is sandboxing

but keep spreading those rumors, offline maps is handy by itself

>>27126444
The best way to get EXP in the game is to mass-evolve shitmons with a lucky egg. The stardust you get when you catch them is just a nice bonus.

>>27126450

keep it for the show off, but once you get a higher CP dratini candy him and so on

I'm going to Iceland in a few weeks. I'm worried I won't get anything good because
>good pokemon are only found in popular areas
>I probably won't have data
>you need to catch a ton of pokemon to get one strong one
I'll probably save incense and lures and hope for the best.

>>27126392
Eggs give a shitload of dust, and also yes you should be catching everything you see. Just keep one of each type with the highest CP, release everything else and you'll have tons of candy and dust in no time.

Don't evolve anything but shitmons until you're level 12-15, when you do evolve your shitmons use a lucky egg and evolve them all at once for massive XP gains.

Why is Bulbasaur literally a game breaking mon? Everytime I get one it refuses to be caught and freezes the game.

Do you get the same exp even if you've already evolved that type of pokemon before?

Is it worth leveling up my starter with stardust?

Can you request pokestops? It's pretty shit where I live. Other directions are all the same.

how long does a softban last

>>27126763
yes, just request your local town council to make your neighbourhood less fucking boring

>>27126752
You get 1000 EXP if it's a Pokemon you don't have in your 'dex yet, and 500 EXP if it's already registered (even if you've never evolved the base form before, and just caught the evolved form in the wild).
These values are doubled with the lucky egg.

Drowzee and Hypno galore here in the UK.

So apart from joining a team, collecting Pokémon, and collecting items, what should I be doing at level 5? Haven't used any of the candies, stardust, etc. because I'm unsure of what's optimal.

so i cant open eggs when i run out of incubators?

I'm going to hunt some mons with my m8 in a bit. Should we both pop incense or do it one at a time for max gains?

Yeah, I had that filed under "collecting Pokémon," really. So I shouldn't be using my resources or anything yet?

>take a long drive to town
>take a 15 minute walk down a street
>catch about 40 Pokemon

>take a 6km walk around my neighborhood in the suburbs
>catch two Pokemon total
Why is this game so fucked? Do Pokemon only spawn around pokespots? Because there isn't a pokespot within several miles of my house for some reason, and no Pokemon has EVER come less than three footprints away from my house since launch.

It drives me up a wall hearing about people catching a pokemon every other minute just sitting at their house. It feels fucking pointless to play this game when I've gotten this unlucky.

>>27126894
Lots of Drowzee and Hypno here in germany too. This doesn't seem right desu

>>27126933
Try to take gyms if you can, even just 10 coins from 1 gym every 20 hours adds up.
You don't need to be able to hold the gym for long if your 20 hour timer has reset: as soon as you take a gym, you can claim your reward.

>>27126986
because I was driving and didn't feel like orienting myself every time a Pokemon popped up

>>27125966
First time playing. How many gyms are you capable of taking over?

Only 6 gyms at the max?

Or is there no limit of taking over gyms and you could theoretically take over all your town gyms?

>>27126995
You can use your candies on really common Pokemon, one's you know you'll easily and quickly be able to get more candies for. It's best to evolve a ton of Pokemon at once while using a lucky egg, but if you don't have one it's ok.

Use you stardust if you want, but you will regret it. Trust me.

>>27126986
uses less battery, lets you play it on the desk, easier to aim your balls to land inside the circle for the +50 bonus, doesn't make you look like an idiot

Anyone 20+ report on the strongest Magikarp they've caught/seen? I'll have enough candy for a Gyarados soon but the strongest one I have is only 125 and I'm not blowing all those stupid fish on a mediocre Gyarados. If they get stronger I'll wait.

>>27127081
their maximum CP is tied to your level, anon

evolve one that's ~95% of the way around the semicircle, then just boost the resulting gyarados (if it has good moves) every time you level up

>>27127114

Cheers. I'm sure it's this way on purpose since Magikarp is so shit in itself, but even at 125 the circle is at 95%. May wait for an XL though.

Best to wait then. The Machamp would probably get up to 400+ by evolution, but you'd be fucked over by stardust needed to power up Machamp. Fuck I wish I had Machop in my area. I've only see one, but I wasn't able to find it to catch it.

>>27127230
im level 13 and thats what my team looks like

Does Pokemon size effect the CP?

I want a decent Gengar. I have a 268CP Haunter and a 212 XL Weight and Height Gastly.

Should I restart with this Gastly or It doesn't matter and I can evolve the Haunter?

So, question. If I catch a mon with x CP and then my trainer level increases, will the mon that I've already caught have a higher max CP threshold? Or will I have to catch new, potentially stronger mons every time I level up? I assume it's the former because the latter seems retarded.

Think again, anon. You might as well transfer that Nidoqueen when you get newer NidoranF because it isn't very stardust efficient to keep your Nidoqueen. Still cool to have from a non autist or collector's point of view.

>>27127023

>will the mon that I've already caught have a higher max CP threshold?
Yes, it's max CP increases each time you level up. This DOES NOT mean that every Pokemon has the same max CP at whatever level you are. They do vary, but at the same time, you don't necessarily have to worry about
>Or will I have to catch new, potentially stronger mons every time I level up?
The benefit of doing your second question is that you won't waste as much stardust to power up your Pokes as you would have to for the Pokes you caught in the early levels. So in short, save your stardust until the later levels when you see more powerful Pokemon.

>>27127489
They are a little rare from my experience traveling my city, so yeah maybe.

>Play Pokemon go past days

Well that was quick

What level do you choose a team at?

>>27127508
Not much else.

People keep saying my wild pokemon will get higher CP the higher my level, but I still don't run into anything higher than 200, except for super rare Pokemon like Scyther, in which case I have no candy to power them up, even if I have ass tons of Stardust.

>>27127537

I've found that it tends to happen in huge jumps. From 1-6 I didn't ever find anything higher than mayb 150, and then from 7-12 most everything was in the 120-250 range, and now I'm at 14 and most are in the 180-280 range, and there's plenty of Pokemon above 360 for me to feel good about catching and evolving later on.

Of course I still come across 10cp and 50cp mons, but it's no longer the bulk of them.

You either need to get out more or just live in an unfortunate location.
Everything here is eevees and pidgeys and every gym is therefore jolteon, vaporeon, flareon, and pidgeot.

No idea, but it's an interesting bit of advice if true. Either way, it further validated his NPC-status for me. Like the NPCs you talk to at the start of the game.

>>27127841

Both cats and dogs should let outside from time to time, the difference is that you can't walk a cat on a leash. Cats have not been domesticated to the degree that dogs have, nor are they pack animals.

Yea, I've talked to a lot of people about this. What's happening is not due to your weight but your activity level. For people who are not very active to suddenly start doing a lot of repetitive motion (e.g. walking) in a certain part of your body you end up getting a motion abrasions, also known as biker's rash or saddle sore.

People who are very active tend to have this happen significantly less often partially do to appropriate attire but also due to the fact that your skin tends to toughen up when met with frequent irritation. If your really sore, take a day off from walking, rest, and try going out again. After a week or so your body will adjust and you should be fine, until then I recommend bike shorts or breeches.

Be wary of overdoing it, however, the rash can worsen and lead to folliculitis (raw pimples in the area) and eventually to abscesses that will need to be drained.

Where do you live? Pokemon spawns are based on the surrounding environment. If you want rock/ground pokemon you need to go to a populated area near mountains/desert, if you want water pokemon find a lake or stream.

Zapbros was the first pokemon I ever got to level 100. On Yellow, mind you, only doing Elite 4 runs, untill it could solo them.

>>27127733
On the other side of things, out in my area "Zapbros" are literal roleplayers and openly gloated about how no team could take their gyms. However, no one could take yellow gyms for about two days because everyone kept getting the unkillable 1hp gym pokemon bug when attacking yellow gyms. Shit was fucked, but I'm glad yellow fags are getting blown out now. Red and Blue legit Bro-Op out here to just fuck yellow gyms now, shit's hilarious.

If I use an incense, is it still affected by what's living right around me? Should I wait until I'm in a location with rare spawns to use one?

Can anyone help me? I just hatched a Grimer from an egg, and would you believe, his model is making my game crash. It died when he first hatched, but he was added to my Pokemon list. Whenever I try to view him, though, the game immediately crashes.

It also happens when he's on the map. It happened 3 days ago, but at the time, I didn't know the cause.

Using a Note 3 btw

>>27128027

Yeah. No real need to. But thats how all the avlor fags take gyms from my 1200cp Hypno.

Many can attack the same guy, but the gym pokemon can only fight back against one. It turns into a literal gang rape.

>>27127924
But I don't have one and I can't get a new phone just to use ar.

It's Xv1 where X= to the gym level, so a level 6 gym can have 6v1.

>>27128041
I was there this past weekend, it was fucking great for Pokemon catching.

>>27128040
Kind of both. Wherever you are has like a 10~% chance to spawn just about any kind of pokemon, so when you use an insense that rate goes up a bit. But if your looking for something specific you use an insense in an area that has it like near a lake for water pokemon, etc.

What's the lowdown on powering up and evolving? Is there an efficient order to do it in? An order that gets you the best CP gains?

I was listening to the radio yesterday and they were talking about GO. At one point the guy talking said "In Pokemon GO you can catch Pokemon like Pikachus, Bulbasaurs, and Bebleboxes."
Is a beblebox a reference to some show or movie? Google didn't show anything for me

How much candy do I get from evolving? Just 1 or 3 as if I had captured another mon?

>>27128126
>An order that gets you the best CP gains?
No because it's all based on percentages when evolving.

Under pokemon, there's a tab for eggs.
You have to incubate them to hatch.

So you might as well evolve early to get the stat boost then, from what it sounds like.

How does the CP curve/arch work? What is considered "desirable" within the context of the curve?

>>27128250
Sure, but at the same time, evolve Pokemon who already have their CP meter above them when looking at their page. Don't bother evolving Pokemon in the early levels (besides Pidgey and other common Pokes for the exp) and just wait until you start catching 150-250+ CP Pokes, evolve them, and then start increasing their CP with Stardust.

>>27128282
50%+

>>27127081
It's place on the Semicircle will remain the same after you evolve, so the closer the meter is to full, the better, As it will evolve into a Gyarados of the same potential.

I'm level 16 now and my strongest mon is a 700+ Hypno, two 500+ birds and A LOT of 400+ rats. The rare nice ones have 300+ at most and they are almost impossible to level due to lack of candies because where the fuck would I get candies if they are so rare

Every single time I take over a gym it's gone within minutes

I would be fine with this if I could at least look the motherfuckers in the eye but no either, they're hiding somewhere or they just drive there whenever someone takes the gym. I need allies

Eevee doesn't evolve randomly according to some local players. Moves indicate it's evolution path
Swift- Vaporeon
Body slam- Flareon
(forgot) - Jolteon

Can the game be installed on an SD card? My phone is low on internal memory.

>>27128575

That's what I'm going to do this evening. There's a pokestop close to a starbucks so I'm going to get some coffee, use their wifi, and just farm shit until they close.

You're half right. For someone, those moves might lead to those evolutions, however for someone else, Eevees with Swift may lead to Jolteons everytime instead of Vaporeon.

I just chose Mystic because I like Articuno desu I don't know why people are making these sweeping generalizations.

Is it just me or would this game have been a bit better if they'd combo'd the searching and catching of pokemon with the card game?

>catch pokemon and get a card with it they all already have two moves anyway
>several versions of the pokemon like now so there are different versions of the card
>higher level players have access to higher level pokemon and higher level cards

They could keep the upgrade mechanics and gym battles and use the card game for player vs. player battles. The rules of the original card game are already written. Couldn't be that difficult to implement into this game, right?

Or have I just become retarded from evo grinding too many pidgeys?

>>27127863
They do. I live in California and there's a shitload of Arcanine/Rapidashes. I imagine weather has something to do with it too since most people have fire types.

>>27128755

People just like having a team to root for. I joke about Instinct players because they're kind of rare in my town but there's no difference between them and the other teams.

Protip: Go to your cities public transport hub. Due to the amount of people passing through the game registers many players and spawns heaps of Pokémon. I was farming rares non-stop until my battery died today.

BTW: Is the "certain Pokémon only spawn in certain countries" meme confirmed or is it just a bullshit rumor?

It has nothing to do with Google Maps. Pokemon Go landmarks are holdovers from Ingress.

Do you live in the city?

Can I play the game legit on my phone but have a second spoof account on my PC with bluestacks?

I want to have some fun while at home too

>>27128091
Only OP is

Next OP should definitely have that removed, it's utter bullshit.

You are using an egg incubator, right? They don't tick up unless they're being incubated.

My town seems to have a fair few Hitmonlees, although I've never actually managed to track one down because they are eternally three steps away from me.

>>27129058
I think its a design choice. Lots of games have a similar system.

In the middle of nowhere. It's Rattatas, Weedles, and Hitmonchans.

>tfw this is probably more pokestops than i will see in 6 months
>too pussy to spoof
just put a bullet in my shit senpai

>tfw 9 and the same highest CP. Have only like 25 species in the dex. No matter how far I walk new species almost never appear, much less those that are closer than three footprints. All my leveling is coming from evolving Weedles, found six in half an hour today and another one hatched from a 2km egg.

Not sure whether Marshmallow has the function by default or it will be implemented in N. There are some cases where functions that require rooting can be bypassed by using Android Debug Bridge from the Command prompt on a PC. I backed-up apps that way, which otherwise isn't possible without root, so there might be a way to move app packages across storage using it.

I want to try out spoofing on my PC but I think Niantic will, if they catch me, see that I used the same wifi with my phone and ban my legit account too

Sigh

Mediocre

>>27129356
How can they prove the phone doesn't belong to someone else sharing the wi-fi with you, say your sister? You do have a cute sister, anon?

>Setup everything for spoofing, go to a park near my home with pokestops just to test, use lure and start catching mons without problem
>few mins later signal flickers and the screen shows my current location then goes to the fake one again in matter of seconds

Am i fucked?

Just hatched my first egg. Is this some kind of sick joke?

Here since for day reading stuff about pokemon go and I have learned 4 things

-Instinct/yellow are by far the worst autists
-probably every american here is fat, lazy etc
-people actually cheat on a free game where the main point is going outside
-this "game" needs some content and new stuff

1.0.1 apk when? Have to manually dl this shit on my shitty S3.

>>27129427
worst thing is a soft ban of an hour or so

>>27129538
worst thing is you getting flagged for the first ban wave
