>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.

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.
first for DRAGONITE COME THE FUCK OUT
Is there a way to discard eggs?
How's your roster looking?

git gud and be way ahead of everyone else. Everyone is maxing at 800 CP near me and almost everything I have is 1.2k or higher. My shit is secure.

>>147996760
stop showing off you dickhead :(
>>147996771
>that name
absolute madman. What do you say when you talk to other players IRL? I don't have the stones for that. Was gonna name myself Nuck Figgers but decided against it. Have run into a shit ton of people face to face, would be really embarrassing to explain such a name
>>147996580
Doing okay, could be better. Really need to get another Eevee, have a 309 ready to evolve.
>>147996971
Save up those GBPs
>>147997012
>this sheer level of diversity
nice
what does favoriting do btw?
>>147996990
I tell people that i didnt think i would actually play this game seriously when i first started out, hence why im a girl that my name is gasse fucking kikes. the few people that did ask me in the park just laughed it off though
I pity anyone missing out on the 24/7 pokemon block party experience
>>147997012
I wan't an Arcanine so bad, my favourite Pokemon. I have only seen three Growlithes and caught two.
Trading when?
has anyones pokemon started to pop out of their balls when trying to capture them today?
I'm higher level than yesterday and the same level pokemon that I was catching yesterday are suddenly not cooperating and breaking out frequently
>>147997113
Nothing in particular, it just lets you check only those via the menu.
Can you get the bonus from a gym multiples times a day if you retake it over and over again?
>>147997135
>24/7 block party
>still only level 12
pls anon try harder
>>147997189
you get a general defender bonus once per day. if you have one gym when you activate your bonus, you get one bonus. if you belong to 5 gyms when you activate your bonus you get 5 bonuses.
r8 muh main, I need some more of that sweet, sweet stardust
>>147997136
Haha, yea. I caught the 806 one, then evolved a 432 Growlithe for the other later that day. Feelsgoodman.
Has anyone seen a Ditto??

whatever lad I'll be 17 before I go to bed tonight
I'm deep in lucky eggs so I'm shooting for at least 20 or 21 tomorrow
I really hate some of you and the shit you somehow find
Been sitting in lures all day since yesterday and have nothing except for 80 Pidgeots and a decent level
>>147997313
tfw haven't spent a dollar and higher CP and level than some people I met who have spent money.
>>147996645
heres a pic of some of the people
>>147997313
I've got to say I'm kinda pissed the game isn't letting me use my google rewards money on it.
It doesn't recognize the account even though it's the one I logged in with
>>147997313
You don't even need money. Just flip gyms.
>>147997313
What benefit are they getting exactly?
>>147997313
It's not pay to win, but it gives an advantage to people who live in areas with a bunch of stuff happening.
You can't even buy potions
>>147997313
Leveling this game is all about abusing lures and magic eggs.
Save up all your evolves for one time, I went from 11-14 in basically 10 minutes just by evolving everything at once.
>>147997313
go to the park and walk around with your friends you doofus.
I think my house is on top of a guaranteed drowzee spawn or something. I've got like 40 today.
>it is dark out

Why even bother unless you're luring a pokelass to your groin?
Is there a way to see a larger map of my area?
>>147997484
In a matter of three/four days, people basically hit the same point as far as training strategy goes as the beta's endgame. This isn't a complex game, it's just a treadmill grind.

>>147997484
>went from 11-14 in basically 10 minutes just by evolving everything at once.
mfw I realized this strat only after I grinded for 10+ hours today
Hope they don't patch this shit before I can abuse it over the next couple of days
>>147997320
At least you don't have to deal with crime. People will forget about Pokemon Go after a month but you can't forget about the niggers living next door.
>>147997395
How many do you have and did you pay IRL cash for them? I have two I got from leveling (currently 11). Do I get more with more lvls?
>>147997541
i havent seen any other players yet ive had two homeless lookin dudes ask me for a light, they were nice but i know that feel. still sit there for hours though, need them balls
Rumor has it that if you go to the national mall, you'll hear screams of ecstasy and life-threatening agony as some people will find celebi but cannot touch it

Is there any way to take over a gym if its bugged? I just beat a gym and i couldnt take it. I heard an anon saying if you move out of the radius during the fight you can take it. Can anyone confirm?

>>147997807The town is mostly jewish
>>147997829
You get them digies?
>>147997652
This is the intended grind strat, they won't patch it. It keeps people hooked on getting lucky eggs, and the impatient will buy lucky eggs. And let's be honest Niantic never bothers with patching or upgrades

>lure modules and huge density of pokestops everywhere, go from 1 pokeball at the start to 69 pokeballs by the end of the day, and thats after catching all the pokemon during the trip
>catch a bunch of cool dudes: vulpix, ghastly, pidgeotto, psyduck, jigglypuff, horsea
>put a golbat in each of 3 gyms since all I had to start with was a bunch of golbats and other weak dudes
>kanghaskan on 3 steps keeps taunting me, never manage to track him even down to 2 steps but he follows me at 3 steps all the way home
>now even the weak pokemon I catch tend to be at least 100 cp to start with, sometimes 200
>see a junkie on a corner drinking alcohol, yelling at any car that comes past and spitting alcohol all over the cars

how was your day pogo?
>>147997871
Tried that, still didn't work
>>147997920
>>get "Nice" throw every time
This is your problem. For whatever reason, Nice throw is actually a super shit throw.
The circle should be as small as possible.
>>147997920
its all bullshit, I struggled for ages to catch a fucking rattata and managed to get a wild blastoise first go
>>147997830
You really need an electric, ice or rock pokemon for all the flying shit people put in Gyms. I got my 2nd Vaporeon today which annoyed me, as I was hoping for a Jolteon to round out my Eevee trio. I have a kick arse 1500CP Lapras though which rapes all gyms.
guys what the fuck is the progress bar when you view pokemon
under the CP value
what the fuck does it measure and how is it related to leveling and evolution
is this ok for lvl 7
>>147997652
It's okay, black people won't be playing Pokemon GO cause its racist
https://medium.com/mobile-lifestyle/warning-pokemon-go-is-a-death-sentence-if-you-are-a-black-man-acacb4bdae7f#.ttlddzez7
>>147997949
Ofc, we've already planned another pokemon sesh. Apparently there are three pokecenters right near one of their places.
>>147998048
That's the maximum you can raise their CP. It raises with your trainer level.
>>147998084
That's pretty damn good for level 7! Nice work.
>>147997954
oh also while I had my portable charger plugged in, the phone charged more than it was draining with the app open
>>147997954
Degeneracy in cities are the main reason I rarely take a stroll around town.
>>147998041
Electric pokemon are hard to find, Jolteon is like the most accessible one.
Luckily my Porygon has discharge, so I can make do with that.
>>147997652
I live in Atlanta right near fuckin niggerville so I always want to go to pokestops late at night but am worried I will get muged

>that one black guy
did he rob the rest?
>Level 12
>About to hatch a 5k and 10k egg
Place your bets on pokemon or CP range
>>147998041
I can't find those types for the life of me. I have a 364 evee waiting to be evolved
I boosted to level 17 tonight so hopefully that helps
>>147998084
Meanwhile , me at level 7 with his pidgey army
>>147998214
Hitler reincarnation when
So what are some leveling strats?
Should I just junk all my lower pokemon, or evolve them for exp?
>>147998232
Electabuzz hatches from 10k eggs. Tentacool is easy to find near water and can learn electric moves. Jolteon is probably the easiest to find. I did find a couple of Vegemites and Voltorbs today with my son at the aquarium of all places.
PSA: Eevee and it's evolutions are absolutely broken, ABUSE THIS BEFORE THE VALUES GET NERFED
>>147996580
Average apparently. Have candies to evolve more but saving for when I lucky egg
>>147998386
Evolve.
>>147998386
Junk imo.
Candies are a huge barrier, so I normally keep the highest CP of each Pokemon, and junk the rest till I evolve, then repeat.
>>147998237
tfw
>>147998294
>I boosted to level 17 tonight so hopefully that helps
Did you plan it out so that you were evolving tier one pokes for 30 minutes straight using an XP egg? That's my game plan.
>>147998405
tfw can't find a Vegemite
>>147998263
Shit I'm in the same boat
UCF party ave has bars placing lures left and right.
Honestly having fuck tons of fun beingSocial
What kind of nicknames are you using? I'm not sure if I should create a cute gaaru or just a male with my real first name.
>>147998405
Probably my area is just bad for them. I've found one Pikachu, and got a shitty Tentacool from an egg.
Still waiting on another Eevee to see what I roll there. For now, my Porygon mostly does the job against flying types.
>>147998170
i knew i was doing pretty good, havent dropped money either
>>147998451
>Candies are a huge barrier, so I normally keep the highest CP of each Pokemon, and junk the rest till I evolve, then repeat.
wrong strat
junk 4/5, save the 5th strongest
evolve only the first stage, and only while using a Lucky Egg
rinse repeat
put second-tier stronk junk pokes in local gyms and cash out
>>147998405
>Vegemites
>>147998476
lmao
>be in canada
>normies haven't tried to get the game yet
>can't find people going around playing it
feels not so good, friends
Does anyone have a transparent overlay of the catch screen so I can put it on other images??
>>147998436
how is it broken, it can only evolve into 1 of three things. Am I missing somthing?
>>147998559
>junk 4/5, save the 5th strongest
Why not save the strongest?
>>147998559
Unfortunately the gyms near me are hyper competitive atm. I can't keep a pokemon there longer than 20m, they flip so often.
>>147998535
I let my 3 year old name them
>>147998653
I mean save the 5th one out of five total, the strongest one
>>147998341
Hopefully soon so he can cook all you subhuman neo-nazi faggots.
So if I buy a few incubators, they each have unlimited uses, right?
>>147998623
I had a 165 cp eevee and it evolved into a vaporeon and got over 300cp in increase, ~460cp in total.
eevee is a very common pokemon and that allows for easy level ups and each level up i got 41cp per level and now it's at 855 with 5 level ups left at trainer level 11
>>147998745
3 uses, I think
>>147998745
I think only the starting one is unlimited uses.
>>147998664
>I can't keep a pokemon there longer than 20m, they flip so often.
ignore gyms then
>>147998745
>>147998795
>>147998807
Think no more and know. You are both correct. Only the starting one has infinite uses. All others are 3 use only.
>>147998779
damn I didn't even have to half that work
I keep catching them at around 300, then evolving and they're immediately in the upper 800s
>>147997954
>kangaskhan
>he
Yeah I said it.
>>147998664
If they're flipping on low CP monsters, keep engaging and at least get some exp out of it on the side while you catch more pokes for evo.
>>147998779
That's normal. Most monsters hit a 2-3x multiplier like that. As your level goes up you'll get stronger eevee and the multiplier will have more effect.
>>147998836
Yea, that's what I'm doing generally. I grab the two or three I can at once, cash in for the day, and ignore for the rest.
Does anyone know why Pokemon Go doesn't work on phones with Intel Atom processors?
Seems like a strange and specific issue. Also I'm just bummed I can't play it on my Zenfone 2.
>>147996580
It's looking alright, definitely a roster that I can go around and take gyms with as long as the chucklefucks who reinforce me don't put garbage in there.
>>147998836
Gyms are good xp though. Especially when they're right on top of a pokestop. You level so fast that way with lures and eggs.
>>147998664
>Go to regional park to get some pokemons and try to take a gym
>Playground was a gym
>20 or so people were surrounding the playground contesting it
>mfw the gym changed colors every minute
It was alright because someone dropped a lure module at the stop next to the gym
Gym near me has a 500 vaporeon and a 500 jolteon on the same team. If I want to train does my pokemon have to beat both of them in a row? I only have a 400 pidgeot
>>147998795
>>147998807
>>147998916
Thank you guys so much, just saved me 10 bucks. Btw, all of you should get Google rewards to earn some easy Google play cash to buy incense, etc.
Do you get more than two Lucky Eggs without paying real money? I got one at level 9 and one at level 10 but nothing thereafter.
>work overnight at a hospital
>someone just died in the emergency room
>I find Ghastly in there a couple minutes later
Damn
>>147999049
They are almost definitely a rare pokestop item. Nothing else in the shop is exclusive.
What level are you anyway? That dictates the rng
>>147999023
>Gyms are good xp though
only if you win
>tfw
>>147999035
I beat this exact scenario with two 400 Raticates lol
Jolteon is a pushover
>>147999080
They have to be doing this on purpose
>>147997435
Yes it does, I've used all my money on it.
>>147999049
i got a lucky egg at level 10 and 11 and you get 20 free super potions at level 10 and you can start getting super potions at pokestops then
>>147998702
Hehe dumbum
So apparently all 6 gyms that are closer to me are being run by blue team, wiser option is joining another team and beating them right?
how does the combat system work exactly?
for example with flame charge here, it has 5 bars and 20 damage
with hyperbeam it will have one single large bar, and 70 damage
am I correct in thinking that they both will prepare at the same rate, but then once they are ready flame charge can be used 5 times for 20 damage each while hyper beam can be used just a single time for 70 damage?
>>147998965
my mistake
Are lucky eggs really that rare? I hit about 12 pokestop every 5 minutes and I have so many
Can't get any lures tho
>>147999140
This is why organized gym flipping benefits everyone. You only get defender bonus once a day anyways.
>>147999246
you are correct
>>147999168
>>147997435
>Had $500 in Play credit after that Samsung debacle a few years ago
>spent it all on random apps because I thought it would expire (it didn't)
could have had $500 worth of Lucky Eggs but no
;-;
>>147999035
You don't, however only beating one gets you lower xp and gym points
>earn my local gym back after some slut steals it (saw her walking away just after taking it)
>fuck off to a lure gatho down the road
>come back
>gym filled with two 100cp mons
>the trainers had to have beaten my mon to get the gym rank up
>they still throw trash into my gym
If you cunts are here, fuck you.
>>147999128
I have never seen anyone say they got a Lucky Egg, Incubator or Lure from a pokestop.
>>147999298
You know what I regret most? I just went on an evolution spree of like 7k+ xp burned, and I could have used a lucky egg to gotten more levels. I'm stupid as shit.
>>147999246
The answer is that the power move is never worth using and you will always have higher DPS and more survivability by just tapping like a mad cunt
>>147999047
I thought I saw someone saying you can't.
>>147999363
I don't think you can get lures but the other two you definitely can
>>147999231
anything other than valor is a fucking mistake
join the right team, delete their shitmons, and do your part to usher in the crimson renaissance
>>147999403
why is that?
does it take longer to do the power move?
what are you meant to do exactly to activate it anyway?
>>147999398
Missing out on extra 100% exp. Live and learn anon, live and learn.
>>147999403
This is currently true because of how battle mechanics work and how buggy this shit is.
>>147999398
>You know what I regret most? I just went on an evolution spree of like 7k+ xp burned, and I could have used a lucky egg to gotten more levels. I'm stupid as shit.
Don't sweat it, just save up until you can use literally the entire 30 minutes just grinding evolutions
Also later levels require more grinding so you're better off saving them anyway
>>147999419
>definitely can
got any sauce on the lucky egg thing?
also if you can't get lures why am I constantly seeing them? seems like everyone and their mom has a million lures nonstop
>>147999456
This.
>>147999363
see:
>>147999260
Everything can be rng'd. Rng gets better with higher levels but also expands to include more like super potions and great balls.
You can grind or buy but there are no exclusive items.
>>147999456
>>147999456
Going to bike around town for a while and get all these stops near home. Hopefully I'll reach lv5 (4 atm)
>>147999527
Lures are a dollar. If 20 people pass by and drop a lure, that's like... 10kmhrs worth of lures for only a dollar per person.
I've seen a lot of people leech a lure, drop their own, then leave. It's like seeding irl
>>147999534
>>147999456
>tfw valor fags are autistic facebook 'socialisers'
I scoped out a group after a friend liked my post and started seeing gifs (from here) with "Valor for life" and shit like that.

>being such a dumb goyim that you don't hoard your lures
So I got a fuckton of eggs and I don't have a bike so I can't exactly walk 10kms all day. My gps signal sometimes fucks up and my character will randomly run back and forth through the city. Any ideas how to get this event done or just outright spoofing the gps location?
havent battled yet. i got a ratticade with bite and hyperbeam, is this good?
>>147999685
Must be a bluefag
hello im stuck in the middle of nowhere with no pokemon and no pokestops for like a week
what do /pgg/?
>>147999685
Having everybody join a single team just makes organized flipping even worse. Sure six people get to have a single defender bonus daily, but the exp you get from a successful defense is pitiful. Might as well just flip bases and get some more exp on capping.
>>147999672
>leeching lures
Truly the good life. No one loses anything by you being there and everyone gains and chills.
>>147999794

Protip: Moveset only matters based on how fast you can tap (attack 1) and whether you finish the battle or not before the special charges (attack 2)
CP matters more. If your raticate is CP 10, you're not likely to win against anything in the triple digits. The score evens out a little in the three digit range if you're doing a 6v1.
Isn't Pokemon Go a massive liability? Like, can't people just pop a lure and murder yuppies for their iPhones as they trickle in? Seems dangerous.
>>147999815
how does organized flipping work?
whats stopping people who arent in it from coming along and taking over every gym?
also I overheard someone at the mall saying to their friend that I was playing pokemon go and that they could pick out the people playing it
>>147999889
Then get that jaw working
>>147999975
There's nothing stopping that, but is your group so pathetic that you let Joe dirt pass by and fuck everyone's plans up?
so my 'mon is not longer in a gym but at 1hp. Did another team take it over or was it dethroned via a friendly?
>>147999846
>>147999863
Anons maybe I'm just fucking insane or the game keeps breaking for me but I walked all day with my family and my 10kms eggs didn't open. Even caught an arcanine to show for it.

>that protip
So fucking wrong it hurts. Clearly someone is an autistic I HAVE THE HIGHEST CP faggot. Movesets can decimate entire gyms or secure them.
CP is literally just hp. I can beat gyms or even train gyms that are double my CP.
Git gud and never give people advice. You don't have anything to say.
>>147999931
So if it's a 6v1 the team with 1 gets a buff?
anyone got any particularly rare pokemon?
I've seen hitmonchan, aerodactyl and kangaskhan
can you actually find legendaries and such just walking around or will they be exlusive to events or something?
>>148000131
you have to have the app open the entire time (not in the background)
>>147999975
Organized flipping is dependent on coordination. The exp you get goes towards your trainer rank anyways, so you're bound to get higher CP mons. If a person comes and tries to cap, then you just recap and continue. Even a single 1.5k mon can be taken with a team of 800s if you spam hard enough.
But once the coordination is down, say between you and a friend, then you just cap with your strong, leave a sacrificial to guard, then your friend caps, and so forth. The time of the day and location of course plays into when you should do organized flipping. Generally don't bother until you've gotten your defender bonus for the day.
If everyone in the organized flipping has gotten their defender bonus, realistically no one has anything to really lose. Just catch more sacrificial pokes if you run out for some reason.
If you're in a large city with only one gym where for some reason the guy wants to sit on his nonexistent defender bonus to feel proud that he has a virtual gym...well uh, continue grinding your rank until you can cap.
>>147999863
My phone battery doesn't last enough for a 10km walk.
>>148000129
Check the gym. If you can potion it it was probs dethroned if you need a revive it was taken over.
I got kicked out of a same colour gym once. I was fuming. It got taken today though, thank God and I never made the mistake of chucking shit mons in gyms again.
>Go to Google Maps and start adding (real) landmarks. Updates are weekly.
How do you add landmarks in google maps?
>>148000226
Of course. Fuck. And I caught a kabuto near my house, same thing with a hitmonlee. It really does seem fucking random most of the time. Although parks tend to have more grass types.
>>148000248
grab a battery pack from your local $5 store
So how do size and weight effect your pokemon's power? It seems like XL pokemon are valuable, but do XS Pokemon offer anything good? Higher health in exchange for less power or something like that?
so
any australians here?
>>148000326
We just don't know.
>>148000226
yeah this is probably the issue, >>148000131 i recommend downloading keepscreen if you're on android + rooted, allows you to select certain apps to never be able to dim + lock the screen

:(
Any reason my game keeps getting stuck loading, does this happen to anyone else?
It also asks me to log in with gmail again everytime I start the app.
>ride free tram for whole day
>get all the pokemans
Why can't I use multiple pokemon in a battle? I see other people select a handful of pokemon to fight a gym, but it only lets me have my one.
>>148000281
source?
>>148000281
What, niantic is finally opening up portal reqs. again? Submission process was through Ingress, niantic hasn't made any official statement on whether open submission is starting for pogo.
Can we talk about Ingress here?
>>148000447
Dunno. I have to sign in randomly
Could be time based I suppose but it doesn't seem that way
>>148000446
They're either autists (driving a car is a good tip off) or filthy normalfags who would be deathly embarrassed to admit that they were playing the game as much as they are.
All the twenty something chat and hangout when things get lured.
>>148000414
are you complaining or something?
I can't tell
if you don't like it just do it again in 5 minutes
>tfw walking towards a stop
>this guys shows up
>planning for a massive level boost using the Lucky Egg/Evolve combo
Anything I should make sure of before I go through with it? Does every level post-10 take 10,000 XP or does the rate increase at a certain point?
>>148000495
Gyms are really fucking bugged at the moment, so that may be a reason. You can use up to 6 while you can have up to 6 pokemon in a gym. (Given 6 different people will need to put up 1 individual pokemon each)
>>148000543
Good luck with that. People here think that Ingress is just ded game. Heck they wouldn't be playing this if it wasn't a pokemon skinned Ingress. How's that XM farming going?

It was part of the OP copy pasta from /vp/
Is this not true?
Guys I can't sleep
All I want to do is go to a pokestop and drop lures
>>148000543
Only in relation to GO
>>148000619
Yes. Combine it with a lure frenzy. Do it at a place with three overlapping pokestops and go to town with exp.
>>148000619
It seems to be 10k to lvl 10, 11k to lvl 11, 12k...etc
>>148000495
are you fighting a gym of your team/color? you can only use one for that for some reason (fucking dumb)
>>148000573
>driving a car in the suburbs is a sign of autism
You retarded?
The neckbeards in my neighborhood all walk around together in a group of 8 with furry tails.
>>148000697
Whats the difference between incense and lures
>>148000659
It's all good. I'm Enlightened and this one guy on my faction linked a portal to the middle of nowhere where I can't walk to and need a car. Now there's a divide to where I can potentially link and I can't end the long link to nowhere because the guy's on my team. I had to play this optimal fielding route around it.
>>148000793
Ahh, that makes sense. Thanks!
>>148000619
17 to 18 takes 20k exp from screenshot.
20 to 21 takes 50k exp from screenshot.
Need more data to confirm exp curves. Most interested to see if the exp curve becomes exponential after a certain point rather than linear. Right now it's slightly linear at ranges, assuming 18 to 19 takes 30 and 19 to 20 takes 40.
>>148000683
They're pulling shit out of their ass. Just search online for Ingress Portal Submissions and that basically explains the whole deal with pokespots and gyms. It'll also explain that Niantic shut down Portal Submissions after the fucking fiasco they caused.
>>148000828
Lures are better and more fun
>>148000573
Or you live in Houston and the motherfucking heat index is 109. I'll just sit in my air conditioning, thanks.
>>148000714
>Do it at a place with three overlapping pokestops and go to town with exp.
why 3 specifically? I was at a spot with what you're describing, three overlapping stops, and people had lures up at all 3 for multiple consecutive hours
did I miss something special? didn't seem particularly special other than the couple of rare pokes I found, no massive exp boost or anything
>Pokemon GO is LITERALLY KILLING black people
Me while playing this game.
Anyone else having their gps glitch out by going back and forth between blocks? made my walk kind of annoying when it would jump me over to a block with like 4 pokemon, just to bring me back to where I was before, which wasn't even the correct gps spot to begin with.
>>148000742
My Lvl 11 and 12 were both 10k XP as well, I was expecting an increase but haven't seen one.
>>148000714
Thanks, I've got a few great spots to pick from so I'll do it that way. Would combining a personal Incense do anything along with the Lure Modules, or should I just be doing the latter?
>>148000594
when do pokemon run away?
if you don't take any actions will they stay there indefinitely?
I'm always too paranoid to take screenshots in case they scram before I get to catch them
>>148000901
Whoever wrote that is not wrong. White people will just never get it.
>>147996580
It's shit. Then again, I haven't powered up or evolved anything yet.
>>148000132
I got all 3 starters in the first day. Got lucky as fuck honestly. Saw a pika but i am too lazy to go outside for it. Just getting a bunch of ratatatas and pidgeys at home now though mainly.
>>148001001
Oh, my bad. Parroting what I've read from others
>re: exp gain
>>148000910
50% of the people playing this in my area were 21+ years old lol
the remainder were 15-18 with just a few young kids who seemed to be over 12 at least
>>148000910
There was a pokespot at a amphitheater that had a show going, my grown ass with a beard was talking to kids asking noob questions since I got the app today.
I bet I was getting mean looks, I just want to rule a gym by my house
>>148000997
Yes. It has been reported. Wait for niantic to fix. Same with gym bugs. Same with no pokemon appearance. Same with no service because international release delayed.
>>148000901
>black guy

When I finally find something that isn't a Pidgey/Rattata it has like 20 CP

How likely is it to get banned for gps spoofing? As in, how good are Niantic at catching it?
>>148000279
how do you dethrone?
I'm at a Valor gym while on team Valor but I can't collect Coins? All I can do battle defenders on my team?
>see 10yrold sitting at a pokestop with his mom
>go up to them and tell the mom how im playing the same game as her son
>tell her to ask him if he uses his lure if he has one i will use one after
>she asks him and he says yes
>collect pokemon for half an hour while chatting up with his mom about the game and how her son plays a bunch
>once the lure runs out tell her it was nice meeting her and we say goodbye
>sprintwalk as i see the kid tugging on his moms shirt frantically and looking at me
>>148001001
Not sure about how they interact. Sorry. I think incense may help as lures are global. It's worth a try at least given incense is common.
>>148000896
Because you'll gain xp from the stops and the mons, which, when lucky egged will add to your gains. Regardless of whether there are rare pokemon you can still use them for evols that you hadn't saved up as well. It's just the smarter thing to do if you want to maximise your lucky egg.
>>148001184
Right now I don't think they care
Does the music annoy anyone else? All the songs are ripoffs of melodies from the portable games, but not exactly. They are similar in the way TV shows make rip offs of popular songs in a "please don't sue me way" with a few notes different. Like not even the victory jingle is the same as the portable games.
>>148000901
>/pol/
Does everyone just forget one of a cop's jobs is to prevent crime so if a certain group of people are more likely to commit crimes they are going to be more wary of those in hopes of preventing things from happening. Is it racist, yes, but does it make sense and also work, yes
>>148001163
>get 9 eggs in 10 minutes
>all low km
>can't discard
send help
>>148001184
Bad. People used to false flag others for gps spoofing to get them banned in Ingress. Just don't fucking spoof yourself halfway across the continent or something and trash people's turf.
>>148001184
Soft ban for randomly teleporting somewhere, if the spoof acts like walking or running under a certain MPHs then you'll be okay. Don't set up the spoof to teleport if you're still running the game.
>>148000828
incense only affects you but follows you, lures affect everyone but are only around a pokestop
but you can stack both together
>>147998702
What's with all these bum names? This is quite an interesting study on language. Cute as fuck.
>>148001157
I don't think there's any reason to believe the pics in the article are actually from the author. They're just googled pics for the purpose of explaining the app to those not in the know.

Yeah no, I stand by my statement.
>>148001242
Yep, I'll go ahead and try it and report here what happens. Hopefully they stack, if not it's not the end of the world and if they do, it's a better chance for some more rares and 1200 free XP.
WHEN IS IT COMING TO THE UK
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
