>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

>My town/city doesn't have many Pokestops!

So I've been doing some thinking, /pgg/

When you think about it, no matter what CP pokemon you put into a gym, between the 6 pokemon the opposition gets to use you are guaranteed to lose the gym if someone really wants it. Instead of putting your 800CP pokemon up there straight away, it might be best to put a mid-size one (thinking like 200-400CP) at first and let other members of your team fill in the rest. Putting a strong pokemon in the gym right off the bat isn't really going to save your gym from someone who is committed to taking it. Thoughts?

The trick is to put a strong Pokemon of yours in that is weak to another type you have of about the same strength, then let the gym fill up from there. Easy way to boost Prestige in no time.

Well reposting then in case anyone has some advice for me


Alright, after only checking out my starter pokemon last night at 1am I gave the game a proper try today.

1. It's hot as fuck outside and I'm sure I'll have a bad sunburn soon, but whatever.
2. Went out and in total the game registered me walking about 11 km, though I think it was a bit more than that but I had a few hiccups occasionally.
3. Caught 68 pokemon today, and went from level 2 to level 7. My highest are a cp108 seel, cp102 spearow and cp81 pidgey.

I was in the city center which had a shit ton of poke stops and a bunch of gyms too, but it's a bit further away for me so that's annoying.

Every gym, even the one next to where I live, is pretty much taken by the one same mystic player who has a cp800 - 1000 pokemon guarding each. Not sure what I can do.

Hatched a few eggs but the step counter/distance counter seemed a bit wonky there too.

All in all I spent like 5 hours out in the sun, in the town, in a suburb and a nearby park with a lake.

Not sure I'm REALLY getting into this game. I don't know if I want to be this exhausted and sweaty all the time.

Just wanted to talk about my experience. Also I'm yellow master race
>>
>>27080673
A stronger mon would deter more people from challenging it in the first place. If I see a gym with 200-400 CP mons, I just have my 1k Snorlax steamroll them.

Click on a gym and Willow will walk you through selecting a team. It has jack shit to do with anything except what team you're on.

I've found 1 Water mon (Staryu) away from water but the rest have all been at an oceanside park for me. The only person I know with a Lapras found it at a giant water fountain.

The trick is to put a strong Pokemon of yours into the gym, that also happens to be weak to another Pokemon that you have of about the same strength because of type differences. Let the gym fill up from there, as it's an easy way to boost Prestige in no time.

Okay can someone fucking tell me how to get bonus points for throwing?

I tried EVERYTHING today.

Sometimes I make the ball sparkle by spinning it and throw a curve ball at the pokemon when the green circle is tiny and it hits.

Nothing.

Other times I just hit the ball straight at a medium green circle and get a nice!

Think I managed one great!

I don't fucking get it, the more complicated my throws the less the odds of me getting a bonus it feels like

Follow https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4rm9rt/faq_here_is_how_niantic_knew_about_that_local/ to make your ingress map look like this

Land the ball inside of the fucking circle you spergs.
>>
>>27080821
>>27080856

To get the bonus points you have to land your pokeball inside the green/yellow/orange/red circle on the pokemon.

The smaller the circle is when you land the ball inside the more points you get.

Nice is for large circles
Great is for medium circles
Excellent is for small circles
I don't know if there's another one for the tiniest of circles

Look at the trainer levels of the current gym owners. Get up to that level and save your stardust.

I also heard that you should max out your Pokemon before evolving them but I don't kbow for sure if that's a good thing.

Do you get experience for evolving pokemon you've already evolved, or say, evolving a zubat when you've caught a golbat but haven't evolved a zubat?

>>27080986
Yes. Evolving shitmons is easy EXP.

Yes literally the best way to level is to bank 30+ pokemon with enough candies to evolve them all and then pop a lucky egg and evolve them for 1000exp a pop (2000exp if you don't have the evolved form yet)

Actually coming along nicely. After a few days of dratini hunting I lucked out and found a Dragonair by the docks, like out onto the jetty. Finally caught a Pinsir, then caught a second even stronger one. Finally, I've noticed uni campus and grassy areas near lakes seem to be swarming with Evees. Got enough to evolve one and got my fave Vaporeon. Immediately went to take some gyms but could only get one before the 1hp glitch stopped me. When the fuck are they gonna fix that shit?

Is there much reason to keep moving?

Say you have a nearby spot with a gym and 3 poke stops right next to each other.

Wouldn't hanging around there and maybe circling that be better than going from spot to spot to spot walking some ten miles and being all exhausted?

The cooldown on stops is only like 5 mins.

But I'm not sure how exactly pokemon spawns work

Hello friends, I'm about to drop my first lure mod and I have some questions

- Should I drop the lure in my apt complex (where I've seen less rare mons) or should I wait till I'm on my university campus ( seems like a lot of rares around when I was there for like 45 mins last night)
- Also should I do a incense when I put the mod?

Thanks guys
>>
>>27081090
Nice, here in AZ aside from Rattatas and Pidgeys we get Zubats, Growliths, Ponyta's, Ekans and Mankeys as pretty common finds.

The only reliable source for water types is Tempe Town Lake, and trying to have a Grass anything is suicide

I found my first Magikarp in the middle of a park field. Things aren't exclusive to one geographical area, they just become more common in certain spots.

In developed areas I find shit like Human-shape mons, Eevee and Route 1 mons, but when I walk towards the closest wooded area I find more Bug-types.

>>27080802
You couldn't claim gyms either? I had a day of issues with them, but today it seems to be working as well. Sometimes it wouldn't KO or time out, sometimes it would 'swipe' away from the battle to show me the opposing Trainer.

It could either be the weather, or it could be the location. It'd be nice if we saw less fire types in the winter.

Also got a Weedle, Evee, Ratata, drowzee and zubat.

Been faking for three days or so, Niantic won't do shit as long as you keep it reasonable. Just fake your GPS to places you could go anyway and move at a realistic pace. There's been no reports of actual bans as far as I know, but if you go fucking nuts and teleport to Rome or some shit you get soft-banned for a few hours where you can't catch any pokemon or get items from pokestops.

So what's the deal with movesets/AP? I'm guessing your first is your regular attack power and the second is obviously your special attack, but I've seen them change on evolution so it seems hard to plan around them.

Is a Pokemon's speed of attack always the same, or is it determinant on what primary move they have? My Pidgeot is slow as fuck in combat while my Golbat is literally rapid-tap speed.
