| 5 CANDIES FOR WILD 2ND EVOLUTION, 10 CANDIES FOR WILD 3RD EVOLUTION! Posted: 16 Feb 2017 04:24 PM PST I caught a ledian, and had 5 candies instead of 3. I now have 8 ledyba candy after catching a ledyba as well. I've seen posts of people catching things such as feraligatrs and they got 10 candies for catching it. FINALLY :D PS. Send help. Drowning in sentrets. Teddiursa also ran from me. Hope it's not rare... EDIT: Transferring 2nd and 3rd tier pokemon still only yields 1 candy. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:20 PM PST Name your eevee Sakura, restart your game and then evolve to possibly get a Espeon. My dad just did it and got one, but I haven't gotten enough data to determine if it is 100%. Post below if you get it or not. I will make a new post for possible Umbreon name Edit: Im in EST, 6:30pm for those wondering Edit 2: for the Umbreon, either comments below or my other post on it: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5uiqty/discussion_umbreon_name/ [link] [comments]  | ||
| Niantic did a good job making the Gen 2 release feel like the first day on Gen 1 Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:46 PM PST The servers are slow and very unresponsive at times. When trying to catch a Pokemon it freezes and you lose the Pokemon. Nightmares all over again. This is unacceptable from a company that has made Millions off of the game in the last couple of months. It was somewhat acceptable to me since it was a new company on release day and I could understand they couldn't afford resources to begin with. Now that the game has been established there is no excuse for them to have failing servers. But let's be honest, it is probably because of minor text fixes needing to be done. /s EDIT: Niantic seems to have recovered pretty quickly. Gen 2 was released at 6pm EST and the game seemed to have recovered by 7:20pm EST. Not too bad. Let's hope it stays up. [link] [comments]  | ||
| How to get regional Pokémon - SUGGESTION Posted: 16 Feb 2017 12:26 PM PST My daughter came up with an absolutely clever idea for Niantic. To mix up the regionals, have them sometimes spawn at zoos. After all, zoos have animals from all over the world. Why not a chance to get them at a zoo? Thoughts? [link] [comments]  | ||

| [discussion] so I guess the servers were never really upgraded, people just stopped playing Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:51 PM PST Games impossible to play again thanks to the high server load. Don't get me wrong, I'm really excited, but it's a bit frustrating when you can't even power something up edit: credit where credit is due. Things were fixed relatively quickly and now is pretty much seamless. Good job Niantic :) [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:03 PM PST I've had a lure out at work for the last few hours and just a few minutes ago saw a pokemon appear that I've never seen. I catch in in disbelieve and then notice a silhouette on my near by. I just completed the north American Pokedex the other day. YAASSSSSSSS!!!!1 Edit: Sorry for any typos. Just too excited!!!

| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 04:23 PM PST Update: This is a substantial update. Much needed UI enhancements on the battle screen in addition to new items and evolutions. Also, new mechanics and a whole new styling system for avatars. Gen 2: Hype train. Delayed but still so so appreciated. Servers were SLOW: A million people decided it was time to play again and servers got SLOW. Niantic spun up new servers and the issue was fixed within 20 minutes... not 20 days. Niantic isn't perfect and has a ton of flaws (in my opinion) but we are seeing immense growth here and I appreciate it. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Attention Trainers! We have some temporary sub changes due to the recent news. Posted: 16 Feb 2017 10:17 AM PST With 80 new Pokémon, evolutions, gameplay mechanics, berries, and a new wardrobe just around the corner, we will be having some temporary changes on this sub. These changes will be enforced the moment the new features appear. For the next two weeks we will have the following;
We know everyone will be excited to show off their new Pokémon, items, and moments, but we feel this is necessary to steer the sub in the right direction. We do not want our sub to become a sea of reposts, screenshots, and self-declarative moments. With lots of new things going on with our beloved game, we feel this is the time to promote and reward discussion, help, and information within our sub. Good luck trainers! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Pokemon shadows AND server lag?! It's like week one all over again! Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:47 PM PST I never thought that I would miss server lag! I'm so excited. And I guess the rest of the world is too, since the servers are all clogged up. This game has a unique ability to make me feel an incredible range of emotions. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Togepi now hatches from 2K eggs Posted: 16 Feb 2017 06:01 PM PST Just hatched a new 2K egg and got a togepi. That guy has been driving me insane the last few weeks. This guy was my first. It also now only takes Togepi 3k of walking per candy Loving Gen 2 already [link] [comments]  | ||
| Chill people, Niantic did a GREAT job. Posted: 16 Feb 2017 08:57 PM PST I'm sorry, it's ridiculous to see how many posts are still at the top of this sub about Niantic sucking and this being like day one. This is no where near to day one, on day one we looked forward to weeks of sporadic availability and near unplayability. Today we saw a rollout of their biggest update since launch and they dealt with a spike to traffic in LESS THAN AN HOUR. Chill out. They did a great job with the roll out. Always room for improvement and more updates will come but I'm VERY impressed with their initial rollout and surprised at how many people here are butt hurt for no reason. [link] [comments]  | ||
| I just leveled op to 29 - and received 15 Pinap Berries! Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:52 PM PST I just leveled op to 29 - and received 15 Pinap Berries! Looks like you can get the new items from leveling up as well! Any one else experienced something like this? Maybe it's also possible to receive evolution items like the Sun Stone? [link] [comments]  | ||
| PSA: Do NOT set off lures or incense right now! Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:41 PM PST I just wasted the incense I'd been saving because I was excited about 2nd Gen. Don't kick off anything right now, the servers are jammed! It didn't even appear as being set off initially, I had to restart before discovering it was running. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Anyone else salty about the Lapras nerf? Posted: 16 Feb 2017 04:59 PM PST It was THE hardest Pokemon for me to find and catch. The absolute rarest I have. And now my 2100 CP Lapras, which was already hardly useful with the 2800CP+ meta for gyms, is a 1770CP Pokemon... Not gonna lie, I'm super salty about this. [link] [comments]  | ||
| I have a lot more Pokémon names to learn... Posted: 16 Feb 2017 07:33 AM PST Pokémon Go was my first Pokémon experience and it took a couple months to learn all the first generation names (I still misspell a lot of them). It's exciting to have a bunch of new ones to learn. [link] [comments]  | ||
| I wish the loading screen was updated Posted: 16 Feb 2017 05:44 PM PST With the new big update we didn't get a change from the New Year's update loading screen with the Gen 2 baby pokemon. With the release of most of Gen 2 today I wish we had a new loading screen. Maybe we'll get a new one soon. What do you think the new loading screen, should it come, would look like? [link] [comments]  | ||
| TIL: I know Nothing about about Gen 2 pokemon Posted: 16 Feb 2017 06:41 PM PST I'm not the only one right? I grew up in the 90s, played the first pokemon gameboy game, and even watched a bunch of TV episodes. Even after playing all the smash bros games, I felt like a savvy pokemon veteran, but after catching about 10 of the new species pokemon, I realized I know NOTHING about gen 2. At first it kind of bugged me that none of them looked familiar, but I guess it just adds to the excitement of catching and learning about new pokemon. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:29 PM PST Anybody else having issues? Was in the game when gen 2 went live and then about 15 minutes later it kicked me and haven't been able to get on in the past 10-15 minutes it just sits on the loading screen. Is this probably going to be a problem for the next couple weeks? I feel like Niantic should've been better prepared since we've been through this already. [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 03:45 PM PST My siblings just got out of school and are spamming my phone with pictures of Gen IIs they just got, but I'm at work for another 2ish hours. So far I only got the new Eeveelutions because of the trick from another thread, and a Snubbull that appeared next to me 42 minutes after the event kicked off :( [link] [comments]  | ||
| [Info] Gen 2 Pokemon candy to collect in preparation for future generations Posted: 16 Feb 2017 08:27 PM PST Hey everyone, I'm a long time Pokemon trainer. I've played through every region and I understand there are some Go trainers who've might've only played the first few regions. Generation 2 introduces 100 new Pokemon, some of which gain evolutions in the future. So for all you trainers who missed generations 3 and onward, here's a breakdown by generation of what Pokemon candy you might want to stock up on. Generation III No previous generation Pokemon gains an evolution in this generation. Wobuffet and Marill gain pre-evolution, or 'baby pokemon', but no reason to stock up on candy for this generation. Generation IV This generation added quite a few evolutions, and some pre-evolutions, to generation I and II pokemon. Here are the Pokemon that gain evolutions/pre-evolutions.
Generation V A few more players seemed to drop off after gen 4 and gen 5. Generation V added 156 new pokemon, the most between all 7 generations. However, none of these were related to previous Pokemon so we will continue into... Generation VI This generation added the final eevee-lution, Sylveon. Keep collecting those Eevee! Generation VII The newest generation, which I don't think PoGo will see for another 5 years or so. This generation did not introduce new species of Pokemon. It did however introduce variants of some select generation one Pokemon, which I think is really cool. I'm not sure how Niantic will tackle this aspect of the main series games, but if you want to look into which Pokemon received variants, check out this page on Bulbapedia. Happy catching!

| The update was just forced on both Android and iOS, Heads up trainers! [news] Posted: 16 Feb 2017 01:14 PM PST With the recent slip from Sprint, we may very well have new Pokémon spawning sometime tonight, but tomorrow for sure. Happy Hunting, and be safe out there! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 16 Feb 2017 11:25 AM PST As the title implies. Every time I see a clickbait post or misleading thread, the Mods have jumped all over it. Here is an example: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5ugqak/80_new_gen_2_pokemon_will_arrive_this_afternoon/ This guy simply posted a picture of the pokemon go logo and titled it "80 new Gen 2 pokemon will arrive this afternoon" Hellofa good job keeping crap like this off the page!
