@PatrickMahomes

Very sorry to those I forgot.

Anyway, I'm suddenly halfway to dinging thirty by judicious application of the recent research. 200000 xp for pressing an orange slide while lucky egg was active.

Plus:

Km3f6pR

I finally hit the point where I delete lesser potions unless immediately useful.

Last:

8E3jZiI

I'm a big boy now.

Not a real big boy, the one that gets to run around the skate park because his brother will beat people up for messing with him

Whenever I try to catch a pokemon the background goes completely white and I'm stuck in some kind of weird Ar mode, how do I turn it off? it's off on the settings menu so I don't know what else to do.

Found it, turned off camera support but nothing changed, still a white background and AR style where I have to physically move my phone to spot the pokemon. I think I'll just uninstall and see if that works

Ok, that is a punch in the nuts.

I don't think this expires, so just wait.

REMEMBER: YOU MUST TAKE A PIC OF DRATINI BEFORE EVOLVING IT

The nice thing is you get more than enough candy to evolve and damn near train a Dragonite.

Also about 750k XP with eggs from a guess.

This new system is interesting.

I checked my 100 Feebas and got 3 stars.

How accurate is it without me having to do a mess of work with my IV offbrand thing?

Used to be "decent" trash "strong" special trash "amazes me" ok talk

Then if I didn't speedread "blown" or "excellent" I ignore.

Now there are bars and all this work to become jaded is thrown away.

I would always save something out of research for either a trade, an event for a legacy move, or until I find something stronger. I have a 100iv Larvitar that I'm keeping unevolved in case they ever bring back Smack Down for the fast move, and a Hidden Power Fire Ho-Oh (if Sacred Fire ever becomes a thing and Ho-Oh turns into a power house).

Theres a button in the top right corner of the catch screen to disable AR mode. It can also be turned off in the settings menu.

Anyways, who else is hyped for Team Rocket and shadow pokemon?

Ive had the Team Rocket outfit from the day they introduced it so I think Im going to keep a team of shadow pokemon to use for battles if possible.

About that.

A dude in the last topic caught a FUCKING good Larvitar at a gas station and showed it as a grown-ass Tyanitar when he came home.

Rare Candy stockpile, or am I missing something? Ain't nobody got 125 Larvitar candy lying about.

EDIT: now that I think about it it was probably a Tyanitar raid.

It was me lol, sometimes you just get really lucky. About the candy, I still had tons of Larvitars leftover from the two Community Days it had (June 2018 and December 2018), as well as trading Larvitars for long distance stuff (you get 3 candy when the distance between where both Pokemon were caught is over 100km) and I do Tyranitar raids every once in a while when I see them. Pinap berries on those give you 20 candy a pop, and you can always swap it to reroll IVs if it's lackluster.

Yup new revamp for IV appraisals, PVP battles and soon we'll have Team Rocket and shadow Pokemon. Jump Start Research is meant to give returning players a boost, anyone above lv10 can do it. If you Lucky Egg all the XP boosts and use a Star Piece on the stardust rewards, you can get up to 805,000 XP and 90,000 stardust, as well as a Dratini (and more than enough candy to evolve into Dragonite), Lapras, and shiny Eevee.

The XP is amazing, it is enough to get you from lv10 to lv25 within days (or hours if you get lucky and have time to finish in a day while raids are out).

What is shadow pokemon? >_>

Ah okay so the new special research. Haven't been egging those. I have a bunch of eggs so I'm just save for when I hit bffs with people. Less than 1.5m to go to 40 and will still have eggs left for whenever they raise the level cap. I'm on the part with hatch 3 eggs and legendary 7 day right now (been sick and hadn't turned on game since wed)

Another shiny eevee especially a good one worth powering up is definitely something I want. Not sure what I will do with it. Been too lazy to make a lefeon yet but shiny umbreon looks awesome...

It's weaker than Lugia in every stat. The only way it might be useful is if they ever allow Mega Evolutions and that bypasses Armor Mewtwo's weaker stat change.
