approximate 0.41.2 patch notes because people still don't understand what changed

When will they fix the game? By fixing the game I mean actually making the game fun.

Had a good night, lads. Took back every gym downtown for Mystic.

Seems like the other teams are suddenly coordinated, because Valor AND Instinct had a bunch of Level 7+ pop up out of nowhere.

My GPS is still wigging out (keeps thinking I'm at home, or at work, or random spots, and can't seem to get my actual location, just close), but I'm managing. Would be nice if Niantic could get their shit together, though.

>>29173423
If they just give us a regular pokemon game fighting system and stats, it would improve this game a lot.

>>29173423
Niantic was created by Nintendo and Google to hook genwunners back into the games. After the first months, they're supposed to make them hate PoGo so they buy Sun and Moon instead. They're being ironically retarded.

>>29173483
Giving the game fighting system would be a bad move since it makes the actual games kind pointless. I agree with the stats though. The actual stats are stupid. Why is there a speed stat? it's useless.
>>29173493
Didn't Nintendo do that wint X/Y? At least it got me back into the pokemon games with that series.

>>29173551
There is no speed stat

>>29173551
>>29173573
Sorry meant to say "Why isn't there"

Maybe it's just a coincidence but after the latest update I have seen lots of Instinct taking over gyms. Before it was all between Valor and Mystic.

13th for scanners are overrated and we're never ever getting trading

also TMs when

mfw can't even capture mons while in a ride
what's the final straw? limited amount of hours?
also buy a package of play time to make a buck along the way?

Fuck it, I'm buying B/W on ebay.

Only reason I feel like going out is to gather some high level gyms, game seems really dead.

There's a Valor-controlled gym downtown that's glitched as fugg.

I can't battle it (Mystic), and neither can any of the Instinct players I know. It just keeps getting stronger too.

Fuckin' Valor, man.

>>29173933
>>29173987
God, me too. JUST before the update hit, a bunch of over-levelled Instinct cunt swept through the city, took down all of our Valor/Mystic stuff and replaced it with level 10 instinct shit in a matter of hours. Some of them still stand now.

I used to leave Instinct gyms out of pity and only attack Mystic but fuck that, we need to bring this shit under control.

>>29174184
That's probably not a Valor thing (how could it be?). If you're getting the gym error, wait 10 minutes and you'll get back in.

>>29174090
I was a lot more happy when I didn't knew about mass evolution.

Still got to lvl 22 in less than a month without that.

>>29174214
>we need to bring this shit under control.
Half of them are spoofers and the other half are just fags who bought lvl 30 accounts on ebay to fluff their gyms. I ain't bothering to drive 5 minutes to a fucking gym only for some spoofcuck to snag it from me right away. I'm not even playing atm but last I did, I just trashed all my items because there was no point in battling. However if you don't have 1000 on battle girl or ace trainer yet, the latest patch just made it easier to max out and you should try to get gold.

>>29174253
It's been glitched for a few weeks. Every day or two someone's been putting a 'mon in. It's Level 9 now, I think.

It seems to be glitched that nobody can battle it, so it's just a Niantic-sanctioned Valor stronghold.

You don't even play the game anymore anyway.

Oh thank you jesus. Hopefully my voltorb nest switches to something that isn't complete ass.

Did that already happen or are nests expected to change soon?

>>29174520
I'll find out in a little bit I suppose.

>>29174455
It's nothing personal man but they're all over this fucking island and just like magnemite they do not evolve well.

>>29174520
they changed them after just a week last time so it's possible

>>29174595
Thanks, maybe ill go outside today and check out my local ekans nest, hoping that it changed to something better.

what level are you guys and when you decide to go on shitmon evolution spree, how many exp do you wait until you do it?

I usually wait till I'm about 60k-70k away from level, but with this new update I'm not sure how many evos you can fit in one lucky egg. I'm guessing its still around 70

>don't play pogo since scanners are ded
>already noticing change of mood and other stuff
so that was the power of vitamin D....

>>29174279
>not being a high enough level to beat spoofers

I've only ever seen 1 spoofer on instinct, he was like level 33 with a 3300 dragonite. I always seem mystic spoofers everywhere, which I report and a guy that I work with is a spoofer and he's on valor. Seems like instinct is the only team who plays this game fairly desu

>>29174718
I hear it's 80+ evos so I'm just going to wait until I get 90-ish mons.

It doesn't matter if you get the 80k exp now, or three months later. The exp isn't going anywhere, the candies aren't going anywhere, the lucky egg isn't going anywhere. Zero need to rush and burn a lucky egg just to hit a level faster.

>>29174725
Im right there with you brother. Plus schoolwork is taking more and more of my time away from my workout routine.

>>29173933
Same. Whole town is dominated by Instinct now, used to be Valor and surprisingly as a Mystic I'm the absolute minority.

>>29174763
Ignore the tripfag. He just likes stirring up shit against Instinct because he thinks the team as a whole doesn't "deserve" to exist.

>>29174725
Vitamin D is GOAT. I always get depressed during winter...

>>29174763
I can take any lvl 10 gym in 40 minutes or so. The point is that the amount of effort on my end is disproportionate and ultimately doesn't matter because all botcucks just moved on to spoofing.

>>29174725
so glad I didn't use scanners up until about 2 weeks ago right before they all went offline. It's not that hard to play without them if you just try lmao, kind of pathetic at the amount of people who say its ruined the game.

Yeah, its harder to advance in a way you want to I guess but even without scanners I've gotten most the mons I wanted

>>29173933
It's because grinding prestige 1v1 was always a shitshow for most players.

The bring-a-whole-team-of-six-pokemon update basically made attempts at grinding prestige much, much, much, much, much more easier and tolerable for everyone across the board. So it brought out a lot of players - who would've looked at a lv 5 gym and mope - out of the woodwork because they feel like they have a chance at owning a gym now.

>>29174800
I live on the outer banks of NC, winter basically doesn't exist here. The tourists are all gone and I have all these glorious historic sites to myself.

For whatever reason electric types are common as shit here, alongside the obligatory water types. However it took me months to even get one firepup and I've seen maybe two Abra.

>>29174725
So people really dropped pogo after the scanners death?

>>29174800
> I always get depressed during winter
Winter is the best season, there's something wrong with you.

>>29174853
game is dead if you live in towns full of old people lol. This game is very alive and well in my college towns and my buddies who live in the neighboring college towns.

>>29174853
No. It's only a tiny fraction who use scanners. The powerleveling autist types.

>>29174718
level 27 and I do it whenever I have 60-70 evos ready to go (80-90 post-update)
>>29174725
iktf, not because I stopped playing because of lack of scanners but because it's Scotland and it's cloudy all the fucking time

Only people still playing this game in the city of El Paso are huge autists, me being one of them. Gyms are being held by a balanced amount of each team. I know i should drop the game but it gives me something to do on my bike rides.

There's no point in actively playing any more, now it's just something you have running when you go from A to B on the day-to-day which is exactly the kind of information Niantic wanted from you in the first place. They did this all on purpose.

Both pokemon you listed only need 1km to get a candy. You get it, then it resets.

scanners spoiled me too much, I know the spawn points of some areas and at least some places seem to spawn like 3-4 mons on the same place but still if I want to walk to different areas I still feel relying on pure luck.

>>29175061
fucking where in the world nowadays? in Finland snowfall is getting rarer and rarer by the year... FINLAND, seriously...

>>29175843
Yes you can, but only the regional that belongs to the region that you got the egg from.

e.g. 5km eggs in Europe will never have Farfetch'd, Kangaskhan, or Tauros

But if Hans from Germany took a plane ride to Texas, got some 5km eggs from a Texas Pokestop, then went home to hatch them, there's a chance he could get Tauros from those Texan 5km eggs.

>>29175985
>>29176007
I'm not getting the candy though. It's reset at 0.5km and lower and the total km traveled also resets to what it was before (0 for new mons).

Catching everything with great/excellent throws and curveballs.

I just hatched a perfect IV dratini (15/15/15), but they are so rare here, that after evolving this I wont be able to get enough for another Dragonite for months.

Are all the movesets on Dragonite useable? I'll be pissed if the RNG screws over this beast.

what's the best way to get xp without scanners or leeching lures?

>>29176558
mass evolving with lucky egg on

>>29176339
you can't you stupid idiot

>already got my daily coins
>still feel like going out and taking down those stupid mystic gyms no one touches

I didn't stop play when the scans went offline, but sure is a pain. Before, when I was at work and could look up to see if there was anything worth while and if it was close, just escape pretty fast to get it. Now.. Well, i don't have the patience to be running around like crazy when something good show up on the radar. Sure, it's the way it meant to be played, but without any kind of light, just running blind, its kinda of boring. If there were any indication where the pokemon was, just to point that there ara some pokemon there, no matter what is, it would be much more satisfying.

>>29176581
but I need mons and candy for that.

>>29176493
What daily cap?

>>29176558

>>29176471
Add to this

>vileplume just appeared on the sightings but can't bring myself to go out and look for it

So is it confirmed you can't catch anything anymore if you're driving? When out for a drive yesterday since its raining and the tracker was blank unless I stopped in one area for a while.

>>29176518
200k is pretty tame for a 5 hour grind

>>29176786

Mass evolution beats both lures and scanning.

>>29176821
I got by with the ones provided by the 6 lured stops, started out with ~140 pokeballs and ended with ~80, I always throw only when the circle is really small though.

Powering up a Pokemon 1 to 40 is 300k. 1-30 is probably like...100k.

>>29176950
Stardust isn't the issue for me, it's the dratini candies that are super scarce here.

>>29176950
20-30 is 77k.
I believe any 95%-100% is worth powering up regardless of moves.

cry more poorfag

every non-Mystic student left town to start university, at this point I think I'm the only Valor left in town and getting coins is now close to impossible

I'm at 500 coins and wanted to raise for a 25 egg batch

When I hit 80 shitmons do I just buy 1 egg and farm the rest of the coins for the egg batch (since I'm also moving town in about a week) or settle for the 10 egg bundle?

>tfw all you want is a pidgey nest to powerlevel

>even the autist at my job who dropped like $250 on launch day is quitting

Christ, the only other app I've ever seen so badly mismanaged was Sonic Runners.

>>29177258
Do you live in a big town? Are there any lvl 10 mystic gyms already?

>>29177299
>spent $50
>still feel like a subhuman garbage
how can people spend more? it's so damn pointless.

>>29177354
I only spent 10, but it felt like I wasted 100.

>>29177350
Small town. 95% Mystic players and yes, lvl 10 gyms have started to pop up.

>>29177441
I was losing faith myself but then I started regularly knocking down every nearby gym daily and ones over level 3 even if I had already collected my coins and gradually they started becoming populated by other valor players, now it's us who hold all the high level gyms.

If I haven't updated and I'm low level, can I still use the fast bubblestrat? Or are you forced to update to fight gyms?
I've been saving up some pidgeys, weedles, etc for a mass evo spree and want to get over this whole "Every gym has a 3k Snorlax/Eggplant/Draagonite" thing.
Wish I had a phone to join in on the craze earlier. Must've been fun to see gyms with different pokemon in it.

>>29177495
I live on a shithole and I punched the gym nearby so much that not a mystic or valor fag tried to take it down again, I think the key is finding hard to reach gyms.

So I need to pick 6 low CP mons to get the difference bonus even if I only do 1 fight?

>>29177605
Yes.
Get fucked, bubble stratter.

>>29177630
not bubblestrater but I usually place one mon and start leveling it up for other players, this will only make leveling low level gyms take lots of time.

>>29177667
Just pick the one you would use and 5 other 10CP mons

>>29177667
Training gyms is actually easier now, that's why Mysticshits now have lv10s all over the place.

People still play this?

>>29177686
it was even a hassle because this game doesn't let you have preselected teams.
I usually place a gyarados or treeman and counter it with a jolteon or scyther and now I also have to pick 5 low CP mons just to get 700 prestige?
>>29177691
yeah, this seems to make it easier for the team with the most players, keeping up gyms at high levels can be done with less trouble and just by button mashing.

Voltorb nest guy here, looks like the nest still reliably produces Voltorb and Magnemite. It's actually just the parking lot for my local grocery store but I caught six Voltorb and five Magnemite passing by to pick up sandwich stuff.

I know they're rare for a lot of people but I'm sick of them.

I've been trying to hatch aka playing the game as intended for a week in order to hatch a Bulbasaur. They're not rare spawns where I live but Niantic made it sure to fuck us hard on the IV department for wild starters. Which gives me no other option but to try and hatch one.

This game isn't made for those who play legit. No. That's the hard mode.

I am instinct and my city is utterly dominated by Mystics, it doesnt matter what I put in a gym it doesnt last longer than a few hours.

>>29180393
Who gives a fuck? Why do people care about defensive moves? Your mon is gonna be taken down no matter what his moveset is, you're just making it a bit more difficult for others, it changes nothing for you, and it will be taken down.
On the other hand while attacking you are the one doing the job, so you have a point to have the best mons possible in this case, especially if you want to attack with mons you like that aren't overpowered.

>>29173933

In my nearby micro-city there's 3 parts of town. 2 are shit with gangs and niggers/mexicans all over and all the trainers names have gang shit or nigger shit in them like "GD LK" etc while the decent part of town is all instinct and the shit parts of town are quarantined to the mongrels. I kind of love it.

>>29180822
Because you make it obvious.

Walk around, follow the streets, don't just fly from stop to gym to stop and so on.

>>29180871
is that really the only way the can detect it? Don't the servers "see" a different input or whatever it's called?

>>29176889

if you want to power them up or use them for battling you're fucked because there's no way to get them back other than the gym getting crowned or your pokemon being the lowest out of 10 and someone swapping it out for something higher.

We instincts never have to worry about this since we never have gyms for very long.

>>29180983
It's the same input - your GPS signal. You're just sending a falsified one.

That's the weird part. Hanke wants us to go out and explore. Based on shit I found on scanners, I took 30-60 minute drives to the downtowns of cities I'd never visited before, just to spend an afternoon hunting somewhere useful.

Since the scanners went down, I've walked a few circles around my local pokestop loop and never ventured farther than the grocery store.

It's the Google Disease. They have no concept of any experience outside their own "vision," and they can't even see they're killing their own game.

Curious, but how do they detect you're spoofing? Of course it's obvious if you just warp to the city center, but I'm curious to how they'd find out if you took a legit route at walking pace.

>>29182821
gps spoofing apps don't send complete data that's why if you use one the only reason why you don't get banned is them simply being too lazy to do it because it's so easy to tell

Huh, interesting

The second team in that hypothesis will be a minority because most won't quit the dominant team, and as soon as the second team gets anything they'll be kicked out by the dominant team. Your second team will look a lot like team instinct right now.
It's not as if people want a fair game, and a lot of people don't give a shit about teams and put their mons in gyms just to get pokecoins.

>>29182880
what do you mean imcomplete data?

>>29182880
They use bots to detect this shit right? How do they distinguish between me being home and 15 minutes later being 20 km away in college from spoofing?

Doesnt send back altitude data

>implying i would play on a plane
but for real that's easy to fake, just make the app throw a random altitude number every time
