>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

In all honesty anon, aside from losing a little weight, I think you might have some serious asthma issues and may or may not want to get that checked out. Not being able to walk 1.5km on what AI assume is relatively flat terrain is really bad.

I met a chubby girl walking today, we talked for a while and she told me she hasn't been outside in months. She seemed really scatterbrained and jumbled her words a lot. I asked her if she was ok and she told me she was going to try to walk a bit more but honestly she didn't look like she could handle it. I hope she's ok, she didn't even have any water.
She would have looked cute if she was thinner.

So is there a deep mechanic to the CP? I caught a Marowak at 245CP and I caught a Cubone at 275CP. Is the Cubone stronger if I evolve it and power up CP? Or would it not matter at all if I Powered up Marowak more since it's already evolved?

Is CP locked to the species or the individual?
As in, are all rattatas capped at 300cp, and you just find them at a random level in that spectrum.
I hope it's species, or there's really no reason to level anything for ages.

I don't want Pokestops, there are legitimately no pokemon encounters.
Not a single wild pokemon will appear if you're solely on GPS, rather than having wifi nearby to base location on. Not even connected to, just to use for reference.
A 5km walk finds not even a single pokemon encounter, but a hundred metres around a town finds hundreds of encounters.
This is pretty fucking retarded when eggs take 5km to hatch, has to be 5km in a circle.

Every challenge along the way

Hello /vp/

I'm a cunt from /fit/ and I have a few questions.

Pls no bully:

How do gym battles work? Do I just keep tapping my Pokemons bum until they kill the other Mon?

Does only one Pokemon I chose have to run the gauntlet to the top?

How is my Mon kicked out?

What determines if I can leave my Mon at a gym?

I believe that's all for now

Thank you ;3

why bother with the rarer 'mons when you just need to catch more of them to make them usable
>>
Have there been any legendary spottings yet?
>>
>>27050229

That's the best method for now

Depends on the color of the gym. If its your team you get one pokemon, if its an enemy team you choose 6.

Mon is kicked out when someone makes it faint

you can leave a mon if its full hp and there's a space in the gym. on a friendly gym you need to train until you elevate the gym level so you have a new spot for your mon. on an enemy gym you just knock them out
>>
>>27050229
1. Pretty much. Tap and dodge but elements play a role. Birds kill grass pokes.

2. You get a team of 6

3. You join the gym of your team color and you're placed in order of your pokes strength.

4. Gotta be level 5. Gotta be same team color

Because one spot that spawns a rarer Pokemon will spawn more of them if you stay on that spot.

That's how I have a Ninetales.

Do others see your name at a gym?

>>27050297
Maybe they'll do an event where people have to gather at a specific location in order to team up against a legendary, then catch it as a reward?

At least that's what I'm guessing from the trailer.

So how long do you guys think it'll take them to add the other Generations? I was thinking every two months would be good. That sounds like enough time to enjoy catching each Gen, and it would mean Gen 7 would get added next July exactly one year from the original release month.

I've been using a location faker to move around my city CBD for the last three days

I'm swimming in pokemon and haven't been banned or anything

So if you can't spare the data or don't wanna go outside, it's totally safe as long as you don't go fucking nuts and zip all over the place, move yourself slowly as if you were actually walking or running

>How do gym battles work? Do I just keep tapping my Pokemons bum until they kill the other Mon?
Yup. You can swipe left or right to dodge attacks and once the blue bar on the top is fully charged you can tap and hold on your pokemon and he uses his second attack which is way stronger.
>Does only one Pokemon I chose have to run the gauntlet to the top?
You have a team of 6 pokemon
>How is my Mon kicked out?
It's defeated in battle
>What determines if I can leave my Mon at a gym?
Be level 5 and make sure the Gym is owned by your team
>>
>>27050365
That just means there's a spawn point or multiple on your house and you're a lucky fuck.

People report consistently never getting a Pokemon while they're at home, or consistently getting something at their front door/backyard every so often.
>>
>>27050354

dodging doesn't really matter and is worse than just tapping but you do it by swiping left/right

the second move builds up as you do normal attacks (the blue bar that builds under your hp) and you activate it once you have enough meter by holding down for a second
>>
>>27050229
>How do gym battles work?
You have to keep doing it until their prestige is down to 0.
50/50 chance to disconnect during a fight.
God forbid they have 500+CP pokemon, or are a gank squad of regulars who will just retake the gym the next day.

You didn't ask, but I am pretty sure that a friendly gym has to be full prestige to accept more pokemon.
Completely defeated gyms will take whomever is there first.
>>
>>27050354

The one that doesn't have any blue bars is used when you tap the opposing pokemon. The one with blue bars can only be used when at least one bar is filled up and you push and hold on the screen until a black box appears around the screen to use that attack.

Dodge by sweeping your finger right or left.
>>
>>27050360
They need to fix this shit candy/evolution system first before adding more gens. I can't imagine trying to find 50 of one candy when there's too much fucking variety already.

At the very least, they need to increase the candy amount when transferring an evolved poke.
>>
So do we know the best strategy for choosing which pokemon to evolve yet? It seems like CP doesn't matter, as what changes is the CP ceiling depending on your level.

What about the size or health? Any impact?

Anyone found a lapras and/or a ditto ?

>>
>>27050377
How does it work?
>>
>>27050354
Top move is your basic move. It's the move you tap and spam

Bottom is your Stronger Special move. Think a fighting game super. You charge it up normal attacking. Once the bar is filled you hold it and unleash it.

Dodging is swiping left or right. Kinda a crap shoot. Doesn't work all the time.

I live in my uni's campus apartments so yeah. Swathes of people go out in groups, some people go alone, exchange a few dialogue like where the Abra is or something. That's it.

There's a square with a fountain in the middle (a Pokemon gym), and everybody in it was on their phone talking about Pokemon. The college students didn't bother hiding it, and some of them interacted and compared notes with each other while teaming up against the gym.

A lot of people had said they encountered qt3.14s playing pokermen and I didn't believe it.

I was driving down the street to a gym, I saw 2 girls, both tiny blondes, in their teens playing. My god were they attractive. This game is fucking epic.

Random encounter - a gym is in some strange parking lot. I pull in, and the parking lot is empty. It had a space for a pokemon to defend, so I needed to drop one off. A car pulls in right after me, we're both just idling in the middle of the empty parking lot. I had a shot at a 296cp clefairy, but my game fucking glitched and crashed. After 5 minutes, I drove away, and he pulled out just a few seconds after me. Tons of people playing from their cars. This shit is cash. It's only a matter of time before there are pokegroupies.

is there a trading function once you run into other players

>>27050373
This is the most fucked up thing about the game. I spent today testing it and my phone can barely last two hours if I keep it upside down at all times. It will be a lot less if I'm actually using the screen.

I think I'll have to buy an extended battery to play this without having to go back home all the time.

Red is basically casuals and normies
Blue is for socially awkward people and "intellectuals"
Yellow is for "muh breeding" furries and autists

Reddit originally planned to go yellow and a lot of the "Reddit pride" people stuck with it and a lot of /vp/ went blue. Shit started breaking up in both places and everyone is scattered.

Blue and Red are usually the biggest teams in most areas and blue might be the biggest force overall.

I'm an Applefag, there's jailbreak things that can spoof your location. You go into the faker app and turn it on and just move your icon around a map and your phone thinks it's there. So I move, go into Pokemon Go, look around, go back to faker app, move location a bit, repeat

There's a few things you can use for iOS but I don't know what to use for Android. Probably a root app or something
