They really need to balance out so much stuff, otherwise it just because 'Pidgey Catching Simulator'
Evos should give off more EXP and candies when caught or transfered, and rarer Pokemon should give off more EXP when caught or evolved compared to more common ones

The next big update is set for mid-late December but it may be delayed.

The first thing that will happen when you boot up the game after updating will be that Willow will give you a 10km pre-incubated Egg (regardless of whether your Egg Inventory is full)

We will be rolling out the PokéStop Locations for everywhere.

There will be additonal awards in milestones for walking with buddy Pokémon, including 250 Stardust with every Candy, and hard to obtain items at milestone distances.

The Egg I mentioned earlier. When you hatch it, you will recieve Togepi, the first of the new Pokémon. Once the egg is hatched it will enable the Friendship function. This is the only way to get Togepi at this time, so the Transfer function will be disabled for it.

Walking with specific Pokémon as your Buddy Pokémon will show a "Friendship Bar" below the distance bar. Filling it by walking certain distances for specific Pokémon will enable an Evolution button which will be lit up if you have the right amount of candies listed. We tested the waters for this kind of trigger with Pikachu climbing on your shoulder after 10km.

The following Pokémon can evolve with the Friendship Bar, so far they all evolve after 10km:
>Golbat (Crobat)
>Eevee (Umbreon/Espeon. Umbreon from 7pm to 6:59am and Espeon from 7am to 6:59pm.)
>Chansey (Blissey)
>Togepi (Togetic)

I'm gonna get fucking canned but this was too good to keep secret. Enjoy.

Fucking finally caught myself a decent Dratini. 628 CP and 73.3 IV. I suppose the latter could still be better, but you have no idea how long I've been looking for a somewhat decent Dratini. Heck I already collected 233 candies which is almost enough for 2 fully evolved dragons.

>>29077910
My first Polibro had the perfect moveset too so I know that great feeling. However the poli family isn't rare here so it's pretty easy to get to evolve a bunch.

It's internal, uses your phone.

Speaking of, so you know I'm legit when it happens: part of the next update will be that your phone will track your distance walked internally, so any time your GPS detects you moving but you dont have an internet connection wont be wasted.

>"I just hatched a Chansey so I guess I won't bother trading one of my Dratinis anymore, sorry guy."

Trading is just going to end up being a half-assed burst of activity before everybody quits the game at once because suddenly they don't care about their dexes anymore which is the only reason they're still hatching eggs and using cheat-y scanners.

Will the catch and flee rates ever be fixed... like we were promised months ago when they were "bugged" with the tracking removal update?

Are gyms ever going to be fixed?

As it stands right now the guys on top stay up there thanks to free stardust and coins. If knocked down they simply boost and retake. It's entirely in favor of the gym sitters (many of which are also spoofers so they can keep sitting and popping in as soon as it's taken).

I wish coins and dust would stop coming in if someone sits the same gym too often for too long (provided there are other gyms in their area: Rural players get mercy). That would help prevent the same guys from holding/retaking the same gyms forever.

Also gym snipers are BS. Period.

Catch and flee rates are being adjusted in minor updates. They are bugged. We decided to rework them from the ground up, you've been seeing rarer Pokemon recently right? Theres the first step.

We have no plans to change Gyms beyond the previous update so far. We hope things will balance themselves out when new Pokemon come.

Gym sniping will soon be a thing of the past. Very soon.

>We hope things will balance themselves out when new Pokemon come.

New pokemon won't balance out the fact that the gym sitters mons are at 3k+ while the non-sitters are at 1k-2k depending on luck. Add in the fact that the new update that makes boosting gyms easier has these 3k mons at 7+ deep all over so they're extra hard to knock down.

New mons will bring people back, granted, but as soon as they see they can't break past that deep wall of giant mons held by sitters who spoof to retake gyms they're just going to get frustrated and quit.

Returning players WILL be under-leveled because they weren't playing. As it is the average gym out here (small town) is held by level 25-30s who, again, are mostly gym sitters. They will be higher up still from all the free boosts by the time new mons come out. A returning player will take months to level up even close to competitive and that's if they don't get frustrated and leave first after weeks of failure.

Outside of catching/evolving mons gyms are all we have. It's a huge chunk of gameplay that won't be accessible and already isn't accessible to many players.

Because the most common form of spoofing is done directly on the phone by using a secondary GPS program running in the background and doesn't involve easy fixes like locking out rooted phones or IP bans.

....they could always ban phones using GPS spoofing programs in the background checking every 5 minutes just once natively on the machine to make sure they're not cheating, but that wouldn't be easy so they don't do it.

They seriously are expecting new pokemon to fix the gym imbalances. Niantic is lazy.

It's the reason why Gym battles are pointless: spoofers, sitters, and people with lots of money (whales) are clogging up the gyms. It's impossible to get anywhere unless you're one of those three.

Whales are the mobile gaming term for people with money. They are the ones who spend the most on "free" games, the big targets for the companies. Making them happy is typically higher priority than game balance in crappy mobile games.

A whale can buy lucky eggs and run them constantly, even while just moving around hitting Pokestops. They can always have a full box of incubators. They can use lures all the time while popping incense. They can buy pokeballs when they are out again and upgrade their lots to max without breaking a sweat.

In short the game is broken for them and very easy so they level faster than everyone else and have more stardust and more hatches than everyone else for bigger, better mons.

Bigger mons that sit in the gyms and collect more stardust and coins for the already wealthy whale.

Add in the lack of spoofing protections and it goes from problem to game-breaker.
>>
>>29080232
You are checking if the client is malicious / adversarial.

Any code you put on the client is compromised and the only thing you can trust is your own code on your server. You can't just believe everything the client says.

PoGo is fundamentally broken because
(a) GPS' mechanics dictates that GPS spoofing will never be stopped
(b) PoGo depends on the client reporting GPS data.

They could do shit like banning rooted phones, etc. but they can never ever stop GPS spoofing short of reinventing a new GPS-like system, launching a few satellites into orbit, then requiring PoGo users to use their own proprietary hardware with their own proprietary software. And even then, some asshole is going to figure out how to spoof anyway.

Ehhh. Not really. Gym dominance is dictated by whoever is in the most popular team. At lvl 25-27, a Pokemon is already about 80% as powerful as a lvl 40 so having more stardust doesn't really make a big difference by then.

The problem is mostly spoofers, you can kill any level 10 gym, it will take a while but it's feasible, the problem is that as soon as you take it a spoofer with unlimited potions and time will reclaim it.
>>
>>29080401
> Actually getting a pokemon to level 25

How do you think they get a pokemon to level 25? Stardust and hatches. Gyms give stardust and coins (which turn into incibators which turn into hatches).

Being on a popular team yes makes it easier. In short, Mystic/valor only needs like 5 whales per city area to dominate a gym. Less if they cheat and have multiaccounts.
>>
>>29079872
Yeah, in the brief time I loaded it to tally up my evolution count, I noticed things loaded faster.
Gyms no longer load every single Pokémon and Trainer into memory simultaneously.
>>
>>29080417
>it will take a while but it's feasible
If by feasible you mean "I also spoof so I have enough potions and big enough mons to take it down before the spoofer supports it and raises it back up again".

\\
>>
>>29080440
>How do you think they get a pokemon to level 25? Stardust and hatches
Uh...by playing for like a month? You can get to lvl 21 in a week or less. 25 is nothing and most people should be around that level now. City dwellers are in the high 20s and low 30s by now. Literally just catch wild Pokemon and evolve them with no stardust baka desu.

Nobody can get to level 21 within a week without lucky eggs and riding a scooter with a 15 MPH limit all day every day. If you got to level 21 that fast you're a whale or have no life and literally play Pokemon Go all day and nothing else.

The guy who got to level 30 within a month was a whale who had a 10 pokestop loop he ran for 6 hours a day. Nobody outside of a huge city can do that.
>>
>>29080469

See? Spoofers are the problem.

no scanners and chillier weather completely killed hunting, it's pretty much just rack up the trashmon you bump into and hatch eggs (driving around).

Someone's salty that he's too poor to afford simple upgrades. The game is not broken for people who pay for it, fucktard. It's broken in another way, it heavily favors the kids and NEETs who have all the time in the world to play. It also favors cheaters and spoofers. Those who buy items get the short end of the stick.

You're obviously someone with a lot of time on his hands and bitter that people who have day jobs aren't actually left in the dust.
>>
>>29080535
>Nobody can get to level 21 within a week without lucky eggs and riding a scooter with a 15 MPH limit all day every day. If you got to level 21 that fast you're a whale or have no life and literally play Pokemon Go all day and nothing else.
Except they can. 21 is 260,000 which is 37k exp a day for 7 days. If you play 4+ hours on a lure cluster with no lucky eggs, you can make 30-50k a day.

>The guy who got to level 30 within a month was a whale who had a 10 pokestop loop he ran for 6 hours a day. Nobody outside of a huge city can do that.
Actually, at the rate he levels up he could get lvl 30 in 2 days. That guy has made 600k+ runs in a single day and lvl 30 is 710k exp. Just stop being retarded and realize people can make ridiculous amounts of exp in very short times now that they know what they're doing. lvl 30 in a month wasn't even that special, a lot of people accomplished that fairly easily.

But let's be very generous here. Let's say someone started 1 month late in August 6th. If that person had simply made 8k exp per day which is really easy to do, he'd have hit lvl 25 by early September.

So you see, nobody needed to spend money or spoof to get that far. Stardust is only for top gym placements but people in the mid to low 20s can very easily compete in gyms and beat lvl 30-35 pokemon with their 25s due to how small CP scales after 30(we're talking 1% increase for 2 upgrades)
>>
>>29080714
>That guy has made 600k+ runs in a single day and lvl 30 is 710k exp
Nvm, 2 million exp and 4 days. You get the idea. He could get lvl 30 under a week when you're questioning 21 in a week. I copypasted the wrong exp which was supposed to be from 25.

That's what Niantic thinks, so don't expect anything. When the game will have lost too much players for them, it will be too late to save it.
They're completely passive, and not aware that there's still a lot of players only because it's a pokemon game.

Firstly, that's a part-time job with no days off for weekends or being sick.

Secondly, finding a cluster of stops isn't easy outside of big cities. Where I live there's maybe two spots where only two stops overlap. Period. It's that way for the entire area within a 3 hour drive.

Lastly, lures cost money. Let's say you find a 4 cluster because you live in a city. You need 32 lures a day to keep it up.

This is why it's impossible if you're not a whale or have no life on top of living in a city.

is botting spoofing from your house worth it to get some free lures and kick some mystic fags from gyms?
>>
>>29080829
>Firstly, that's a part-time job with no days off for weekends or being sick.
That's without eggs. If you buy 10 bucks worth of eggs, you could do it in half the time. 2 hours a day on a hobby is nothing. People spend more time doing retarded shit like picking their nose, scratching their butts, browsing facebook and less productive stuff than going out and hitting lures or pokestop clusters.

>Secondly, finding a cluster of stops isn't easy outside of big cities. Where I live there's maybe two spots where only two stops overlap. Period. It's that way for the entire area within a 3 hour drive.
That's your problem m8. You shouldn't let your bias get the best of you like that. There's streets in SF and NY with 30+ pokestops alone and people who live there could probably make 50-100k in 2 hours if they wanted.

>Lastly, lures cost money. Let's say you find a 4 cluster because you live in a city. You need 32 lures a day to keep it up.
You don't need to buy those lures. Lure clusters are fed by botfag alters or people just do it for you. People sell botted accounts with 20+ lures for 1 buck on ebay and I know many people spam those.

>This is why it's impossible if you're not a whale or have no life on top of living in a city.

I only botted accounts for the lures and placed them at the local park where people plays when I went there with my girlfriend so she could level up as well.

Spoofing for gyms will most likely get you banned if your account gets reported enough times, just use it to restock on pokeballs/potions and you will be safe I guess.

Will I get ~100 prestige or 1000? 100 if it thinks vaporeon beat and 1000 if it properly can tell i beat it with a lower cp mon, which I have little faith will be the case.

Or do i have to select 6 low cp watermons and hope it doesn't lower RK9s cp?

I cannot decipher what the fuck you're saying so I'm just going to ignore it.

It's the same prestige farming formula. 500 + change for using a lower Pokemon, 1000 + change if it's less than half of the defender, etc. The only difference is that it looks at the highest CP value of the six guys you bring in.

>Sounds like prestige farming is dead
This makes it much, much easier.
>>
>>29082801
might be tedious to swap your mons tho if you are at a high level
>>
>>29082879
Still worth all the prestige you get
>>
>>29082674
>prestige farming is dead
On the contrary. Now you can throw 6 mons at a gym instead of 1. Which is good news if even the weakest mon in the gym is too high level for you, you can now throw several of yours at it to raise prestige.
>>
>>29082801
Instead of just going after an RK9 with a much lower cp water mon that I named to be at the top of my mons sorted A-Z, i have to swap out 6 Pokemon it auto selects each battle just to prestige farm.

In the time it takes to switch out 6 Pokemon for lower cp mons I could have already beaten the first mon in the old system and gotten 1000 prestige.

The only way this can be better/faster is if the defenders are two fire mon then 2 water mons and i choose a team with 4 lower cp mons with type advantages. In that case ill make 2k-4k.
>>
This >>29082879
>>29082895
>Still worth all the prestige you get
No. If i beat a gym with 5 pokemon with my 3k dragonite i only get ~600 prestige and that takes 3-4 minutes. Whereas in old system and I have a handful of ideal matchups named at the top. I could have beaten the first mon 2-3 times in that time frame for probably 2k+ prestige

You only get to 100 + change (small number resulting from its calculation re: cp difference) per Pokemon i beat with a dragonite that high.

Hey I'm level 24 and I feel like I'm not really helping when I put my Pokemon in gyms. I don't have any over 2000 and my highest is a 1926 exeggutor but I only use it for attacking as its my only grass type. I have a few 1600s Arcanines in the gyms and a 1580 Vaporeon that I put in gyms but thats only good for 5 gyms so after that I have to put in mons that are sub 1500. I'm good at taking gyms but then I feel like I have nothing worthwhile to put back into the gyms. Gyms around here normally stay for a few hours before changing hands with a few gyms that are always controlled by one team and don't fall.
>>
>>29082898
Then git gud, your mon will the lowest in a level 10 gym, in other words, you'll be kicked out as soon as someone battles it cause no buffer for level 10 gyms.

Games been out 3 months, you dont want to be in that gym anyways.

The only way they can give incentive to a level 18 player for training a level 9 gym from 40500 to 50000 is if they allow level 10 gyms to get a 10k buffer as well. Meaning you could train the gym from 52k to 60k after u put ur shitmon in
>>
>>29083093
Before this update, we loved you. You put in a bite fire blast RK9 and we could mine it with starmies and baby vapes and blast the gym from level 3 to 10 in 20 minutes
>>
>>29083093
Grr. I'm level 25 and only have 27 Growlithe candies.
>>
It feels like ever since the recent update went live, that some of the shit with catching Pokémon has REALLY eased up.
I'm not getting that bullshit where Pokémon of even lower levels instantly burst out of a ball, and it seemed like they might've fixed shit where the Poké Ball can sometimes go flying off into the distance.
No idea if my elemental bonuses are making a difference here, or if they just fixed their shit.

>>29083093
Anything you put in a gym is of help. You make it harder to take down and even if it's a low CP, people can train against it more easily than against a 2500 CP Snorlax.

>>29083329

She is level 22 and I am 28, I already have 3 vileplumes and 250 oddish candy but there is nothing wrong with a free vileplume.

I went on silphroad over the weekend, noticed new growlithe nests by my work. Caught 7 yesterday. Almost have enough for 4th try at no bulldoze

I used to have a mini nest near me but it vanished. This is great. Finally something to train on lapras with. I had hatched 4-5 growlithes in the past. Was so desperate for snorlax/lapras trainer I evolved a 68% level 26 growlithe

How high CP? even with element disadvantage those psychic moves hurt a lot. And it doesn't help that some of them have the same animation of the normal hit and only announce when the damage already was dealt.

Suck it up.

You get more prestige over time just by the fact that you can have a 6-man come with you instead of a miserable 1v1 scenario that you quit out immediately after the first battle.

>>
>>29084012
First, you should always wait until you have 124 candies before starting evolution process, as you may very well find/hatch a better one

Second, both oddish hatches I evolved were about 950 cp glooms, so the cp/level difference is negligent, however not the candies.

Just walk your gloom till you have 100 candies and best of luck
>pic is my 2nd try with a level 23 746 oddish (1150 gloom)
I hope you dont get this

So is bubble strat the fastest way for me to get fast EXP to catch up? I ran into some guy last week that said there is a local pgg group that takes this shit to autistic levels, as evidenced by every gym having 5 dragonites and vaporeons.
I'd rather not spoof unless it's just to some local pokestops to grab some pokeballs.
>>
>>29084192
Start by transferring anything that has bad moveset and not-top CP. Moveset is everything in this game. Low CP good moveset is still good for prestige gain. Bad moveset Pokemon are literally useless unless they have >2k cp and can scare off people from fighting the gym.
>>
>>29084243
What about special cases like meme CP starters? I have a lot of them.
>>
>>29084263
420/666? I doubt you have that many of them. Other combinations don't seem to be worth anything.

>>29084281
No, I mean like 200 CP Blastoise or 700 Venasaur etc. Maybe some dank memesters will trade good stuff for them later on.
>>
>>29084121
Only keep 1 rapidash 1 ninetails and 1 dodrio. Slash your royal family down 6. Get rid the blastoise under 1100 cp. Sub 1k gun / pump are the only move sets for (the now obselete?) training
18 golducks? Try 4 or 5.

If they can't break 2k then their only purpose is/was training
