Motherfucking RHYDON edition

>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/YP458esi (embed)
Feel free to add more.

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.

Is it possible to fuck over an enemy gym if their pokemon have a CP advantage? What if the advantage is mild? What if it's major? Can you outplay the AI that controls their pokemon through dodging or is it more likely that you'll get 1-shot?

I have some gyms in town that I have mons around their level but I don't know if I can win.

>>147976653
Funny, but no.

Apparently, if you change the number of people defending a gym while someone is loading the fight, it will kick you back the gym summary.

Say for example you challenge a level 1 Gym, and theres only the leader. Well, you tap the challenge button and it starts loading the fight. If aomeone adds a defender, bumping it to level 2 before the fight loads, itll kick you back to the summary.

Same if they remove a defender while its loading

Makes no difference at all

Incense just decreases the spawn time around you

is that essentially what a lure does? or brings already spawned mons to your location?

Are pokemon totally stationary? I know move towards lures, but do they move outside of that?

Ok, I'm back from my night safari.

A little under three hours spent. I would have gone for more but my battery gave up. If I ever want to get serious about this game, I'm gonna have to go buy a powerbank or something.

Anyway, for those interested, the final tally:
>7 Pidgeys
>4 Weedles
>2 Ratatas
>2 Eevees
>2 Spearows
>1 Meowth
>1 Exeggcute
>1 Oddish
>1 Clefairy
>1 Zubat
>1 Venonat
>1 Caterpie
I saw a Venomoth as well, but it escaped from two balls and ran away.

Overall not a bad haul, but nothing good or special either, so based on this I can't say going out at night is worth it. I had a good time though. I met a drunk who started some serious banter, but apparently I bantered back well enough because in the end he ran off wishing me a good night. I also discovered that there are a SHITLOAD of hotspots and two gyms in a forested area near me (it's an arboretum so I guess that explains why it's far more popular than a regular forest), but fuck going into the forest at night, I'll go back there during the day sometime.

Now I'm off to take a quick shower and get some sleep. Good night, /pgg/.

>>147977564
So it's possible to catch pokemon without moving without incense?

can you get a nice/great/excellent bonus AND a curve bonus?

Yes, but the odds are pretty low.

its not an accomplishment, im just a retard with money
>>
>>147977734

Yeah, shit spawns when I work at my desk all the time. Caught a Pidgeot and a Golbat that way. Seems like every 10 mins or so I'll get a buzz.
>>
>>147977672

Unsure, but I think lures decrease the time further but can't be used anywhere

>>147977734

Correct.

>>147977734
Sure I did that all day today

Depends where you are also, some places are busier

i just ate out at a steakhouse, and from just sitting there, I was in range of both a pokemon center and a gym

You're retarded.

Anyway just buy a bunch of lucky eggs, lures, incense and incubators.

To start out pop incense and lures near a pokespot. farm a fuckton of pokes. Once you have a sizeable collection pop a lucky egg and evolve everything you get, once you've evolved everything pop another lure + incense and farm away.

Before you pop your first lucky egg put all the eggs you have in incubators. enjoy being level 20 by tomorow

>>
>>147978124
Where'd you get that shiny primeape?
>>
>>147978371
Incesnse increases the spawn rate arround you, lures attract pokemon around you to come towards you. Yes they stack, you can get something like 6 pokes in a single screen using both.

>>147978432
>how much xp are hatching eggs.
I have no idea, i know you get quite a bit from it, You can get stuff that isn't common to your area as well so it's a good way to discover new pokes which is more xp.

>rarity
There's 3 tiers of eggs.
>2KM
>5KM
>10KM

2KM is pretty much garbage but you can get stuff that's not common to your area

5KM is a mixed bag, you can get rare stuff and stuff that's common around your area so worthlesss to you

10KM is the big jackpot, these are quite rare to get and can get you pretty rare pokes, shit like aerodactyl, Snorlax, Lapras, etc.

Currently i'm level 13, i'm drowning in 2KM eggs, have a few 5KM and 0 10KM eggs yet.
>>
my friend said if you tap 10 rustling grass patches in a row without moving, you get a rare pokemon encounter. is this true?

They do, it's percentage based.
Say your level 5 and you have a pidgey.
For speculation let's assume that the max CP is 100 and it's current CP is 50.
If you evolve it into a pidgeotto who's max is 200, then it's current CP will be 100 thus 50% of the max.

If you level up your pidgey to 90CP wich is 90% of the max, then evolving it to pidgeotto will give it 180 CP, 90% of the max.

But as >>147979418 said moves are randomized on pokemon as they evolve, don't waste stardust on low CP trash.

To be fair you shouldn't' waste more than 15 minutes on a worthwhile rare pokemon trying to find it.

If it is anything like the electabuzz I found today, it lasted for like 10 minutes at most and everyone at the LGS I told about it after I found it, lolligaged and couldn't get it. It seems like worthwhile uncommon pokemon have a short map life.

You know I have to admit, the one thing I hate about pokemon go? Everything i catch becomes shortly outdated and I feel like I'm just running on a long ass treadmill.

It feels like I'm reaching no end game and I don't know if I should save my candies and stardust for the wall or if there even is a wall. Or just blow candies to get XP for evolutions.

Really? I'm level 6 and I have 3 2kms 5 5kms and a 10 km. I've been to a lot of different pokestops from driving around. Guess I got lucky.

None have hatched yet because I'm a lazy ass and I did all my walking before I got any eggs.

Gyms are for repping your team. The point is to catch 'em all. But the fun of catching them all is GOING OUT AND DOING THAT.

So spoofing takes that way by basically giving you all the pokemon, or at least allowing you the ability to easily collect them. It'd be like playing red version but instantly beating the elite 4 with all 150 pokemon given to you at max level.

That's because you ARE running on a treadmill. That's what mobile games ARE. Treadmills where you pay money for a bit of rest and get ahead. Here the treadmill is literal as well.

Because US + EU is what it can't handle. It works fine in US when EU is asleep and Asia is at work, too.

The key difference is that the game was released for the US/AUS/NZ areas so EU trash should probably just wait a bit.

Yes, and eventually you'll have no reason to play because no one else is, either.

This eventually becomes a pissing contest over gyms at apartment complexes and nowhere else.
