>What country has this game been released in?
Officially: Australia, New Zealand, and the USA

>Is anyone else having trouble with x?
Yes. Servers have been fucking up forever. If you have an issue, it's likely a server issue or a bug not unique to you.

>When will the game be released in my country?
What are we, from the future? We don't know.

>It says that the app is incompatible with my devices! What gives?
This is a region lock and it is very probable that your device IS in fact compatible with Pokemon GO. Install the app to find out! Directions are below.

>If I live outside of Australia and the USA, can I download this game for Android?
Sure! Keep reading for directions.

>How do I download the game?
Go to http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/niantic-inc/pokemon-go/pokemon-go-0-29-0-release/pokemon-go-0-29-0-android-apk-download/
You will need a file manager on your phone. Get a file manager in the Google Play store.

Yeah. I just spent 4 hours outside, with water bottles and shit. I was really excited and I actually had a blast when I didn't find a common pokemon for the millionth time.

But when I got home after being tired, sweaty, and not much reward for my efforts I started to think about if what I did was a waste of time. Sure I went outside but REALLY how much did I actually spend not looking at my phone and trying to get in touch with nature?

In the end you catch the same pokemon, so there's no real connection to what you run into, you grind to level up and evolve, and sometimes it just feels cheep when you walk around aimlessly just to have the rare nearby pokemon vanish from the nearby list.

I want to try again but I'm afraid I'm wasting my time. Which is a shame because it was something that made me go outside and distract me from working out and it has a lot of potential.

I'm going to assume getting their CP up is all that matters. I have caught a Sandshrew with 64 CP and a Sandslash with 16 CP. Also my Pidgeotto is weaker than any of the Pidgeys I've caught. Evolutions seem to be meaningless from what I can tell.

Evolutions seem to scale with the previous evolution's CP. My Pidgey with 58 Cp evolved into something with like 138, way higher than anything else I've caught at the time.

The thing that sucks about driving I realized today is your gonna have to tap a claimed gym more than once (defeating all the members and then tapping to claim it) pokestops are the only thing you can really abuse kinda
>>
>>27024299
No unless you do it at walking speed.
Or you could do it on a wheelchair, you know. I'm sure there are plenty of players with disabilities, just please be aware of your surroundings since mobility is an issue.

You can also just "camp" for pokemon, moving slighlty ever so often. I caught 5-10 pokes last night just from cooking, which meant leaving the app open and in my pocket while I moved around the kitchen. I ignored several alerts though, could have caught more.

I mean you catch the same pokemon to level up and evolve. what makes that first Pidgey any different from the 300th Pidgey? There's nothing personal about it you don't grow with your pokemon.

It's not an adventure with your pokemon, it's an adventure of exploring the world which you could've done yourself but you needed the intensive of this game to do it .

>you dont need to stare at your phone the whole time, see which direction you wanna go, look how far pokestops are, wait for vibrate and youre free to look around

then what the fuck are you even doing? are you going for a walk or did you go out to play pokemon? It would be this thing in the back of your head telling you to pay attention to your pocket because that's the main reason you went out, to play pokemon GO, not go for a nature walk.

I can almost guarantee there are no shinies. I have no proof though but the game while fun is so fucking shallow. It's only the kanto pokemon for a lot of reasons. It's easier. It's just the beginning. To appeal to people who fell out with pokemon after gen 1. The main reason I think is so they can charge for new pokemon down the line.

See last point. Also the game isn't built around battles. Nor is it meant to be. Its just to go out and have lil adventures with your mates.

Proveably wrong. I live in the middle of buttfuck nowhere. Like 100 to 120 miles from a major city with any sort of landmark.

This. It happened to me too, but clicking it did nothing. It sucks too, because it was an ekans (I know because it was the most nearby one, it didn't have footprints) and I really want one.
>>
Not that smart in this subject but
Is this a problem (servers acting like potatoes) they can fix? Can they fix it with some maitennece after they put the servers off because it hasn't really been fixed permentally yet. Is it just the amount of players on and theh just can't control it?
>>
So what does it mean when its just a green gradient screen?

Literally EVERY other "step tracking" app on the Play Store can track my steps without needing to be open and draining my battery at 1% per minute.

Well this is just me and you might not be playing this way but I picked the one really strong pidgey and used all the others to evolve it. Then i just boosted this little fucker with everything I had. Now hes a god. Did the same for a couple other species and now me and these 3 or 4 pokemon that I put a lot of time and effort into run this fuckin town.

stop saying that it's up when it's only up for you and a few other people.

most people still have no access to it.
>>
>>27024299
Yeah, I'm frequently a passenger for my job (road assistance mechanic), and I managed to catch 3-4 Pokemon through steady driving, and hit a number of hotspots. Battling Pokemon while moving is perfectly fine, the only thing that matters is initiating the battle before you get out of range. Considering you'll be driving with the express purpose of catching, you can drive as slow as you want.
Just don't idle near kids.

>this nigga

>Jeez do you know how to have fun??
Do you? At barbecues the possibilities to do something fun are almost infinite, while GO has a set of rules. Look at your phone, go to an area, walk around and wait.

If what you mean by having fun is using your imagination with GO, then why didn't I just go outside to play pretend instead of investing my time in an app with microtransactions? I went outside, jumped fences, went into "dangerous" places, went places where I wasn't supposed to go.

That right there is what makes GO fun, the finding, not the actual mechanics, or pokemon, but the places. Places you could've gone and explored by yourself with a bit of adventure.
>>
>>27024424
Is that what that means?
>>
>>27024213
Hitmonlee, Cubone and Doduo all on my map at one point. I lost a Horsea at another point as well.
>>
>>27024653
Yeah, but the beef is that this is a Pokemon game and will pull in a shitload of people on the brand awareness alone, it doesn't take a fucking genius to try and anticipate this.
Other games with this problem aren't pulling around an established global brand with a guaranteed playerbase.
>>
so is it better to max out your pokemon's CP with candies and then evolve it or is it better to do it the other way around?

Yes. Stand around in the factory all day and night, and whenever someone walks in, go up to the catwalks if there are any.

From there, announce your identity as the leader of the gym and challenge them to a battle. You can then jump down from the catwalks to look cool and make sure you do a lot of cool poses.

Basically just re-enact the greatest cutscene in DMC history:

no, it's a pokemon that isn't showing up on his screen for some reason, prolly shitty phone or a bug.

>What did you expect? EV and IV training, long ass turn battles in the middle of the road?
Wouldn't have hurt them to add in actual social features like interacting with your friends or even trading. You know trading, the thing that the entire franchise was built on from day 1? Or maybe something that appeals to types of players other than the ones that like to fill their boxes with 800 generic Pidgeys? Come on, it's not that hard.

Motherfucking Bulbasaur


So, status in Korea:

Was working 2 days ago, just before the "official" US launch. Caught 5 pokemon, leveled up nearly to 3, even visited one of the many pokestops in my city

Then, it launched in the US

Now, I can occasionally log on, but the fields are barren

no pokemon
no pokestops

and for about 36 hours, the game kept looping incense

still have my caught pokemon, but there's no more to catch and nothing to see

God. If you don't like it, stop it and come back if they add it one day, which wouldn't surprise me at all. The game is clearly not "perfected" given the cash shop that is an absolute joke and not to the publisher's advantage this time.

Small thing: I think that when you tap the screen and there's a blue circle and a 'ping' sound, it refreshes your connection maybe?
Twice now I've done that and immediately after gotten an incense Pokemon.
and yes, I'm a fool for using any incense with the servers the way they are right now, but it's on my throwaway google account while I wait for PTC to come back online
>>
The MMO Server Status site says the servers are up, but I see the Pokemon webpage for logging into your Trainer Club account is still down, so my not being able to log in is because I'm trying to PTC instead of my google account? Or is the server site wrong and everything is still shit?
