| DEAR NIANTIC - ideas and suggestions for the devs Posted: 06 Aug 2018 11:36 AM PDT Hey Niantic! You guys made a game we all have a lot of feelings about...and this is our spot to express those feelings and make some statements about ways we think the game could be even better for us - and by extension, you! If you want to complain about the game in a less constructive way please do so in the Salty Sunday - Rage Rants and complaints thread. Here you will find ideas and suggestions - a mix of the positive posts and constructive criticism that reddit's Pokemon Go community have compiled and discussed and up/downvoted by importance and validity for us all. If there's one post on /r/pokemongo you guys should be paying attention to, it's this one, so please do. Hey /r/PokemonGo Trainers! This recurring monthly post is for you guys. Sort posts by "top" to see what has been voted most important so far, but consider sorting by "new" as well to weigh in on the most recent ideas! Please pay attention to the /r/PokemonGo rules for commenting behavior and civility, and use the report button when necessary to alert the mods to any post or thread that needs a review!

| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 10:13 AM PDT I cannot count for you the times a GPS blip or error resulted in me waiting upwards of two minutes for spawns to reappear, or changing focus back to the game after a while takes several minutes for the game to unload the old spawn information and reload the new information even with excellent cell connectivity. This is on a recent high-end phone (2017). Resetting the game takes about 30 seconds on my phone, but is still faster than trying to natively update the game's state. This shouldn't begin to be an issue for any game on any platform! All the other bugs and nags can wait, in my book. Basic performance is priority one.

| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:23 PM PDT i know theres a bit of worry that someone might put the phone down and take an 8 hour nap right as they finish battling a gym but for everyone who doesnt do this having this obnoxiously long splash screen sitting on the screen is just annoying maybe knock a couple hours off so we arent just standing there in some random car park in the rain long enough for someone to call the cops on us for loitering? it doesnt add anything to the game to have it displayed for as long as it is [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:03 PM PDT A group of our local players over took a cluster of gyms at a local park and left behind a secret behind. Do you think anyone will notice? A surprise from above: The hidden surprise: [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| [Story] I caught my first shiny today! Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:58 PM PDT I'm so happy! I've been hunting for a shiny Swablu and I got lucky today. Really, all of the credit goes to my brother. I was driving and gave him my phone to hit stops for me. He knows how much I wanted a shiny Swablu. Right as we pulled up on a Kirlia raid, he handed me my phone back with that sucker. I wasn't taking any chances, even though it was a low CP, I golden razzed it and threw a great ball, fucking got em. Earlier, we saw an Absol raid. We had tried and failed to do it just us in the past, but today we got lucky and pulled up on 8 other trainers in the lobby! This is my luckiest day in game so far. 😎 [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I am a little disappointed that we won't get Leafon and Glaceon for Community Day Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:58 AM PDT The newest update was data mined on pokemon go hub and there was no data found for Leafon or Glaceon. Which is a shame because I was looking forward to these two being possibly introduced into the game this weekend. Update 0.111.4 showed no sign of Glaceon, Leafeon or Gen IV and Last Resort (Eevee EX Community Day move) added. Here is the link for more details. https://pokemongohub.net/post/news/pokemon-go-0-111-4-update-apk-mine-last-resort-yes-gen-iv-no/ [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 02:17 PM PDT It would be interesting to see the possibility of a home pokestop that is a slightly different color (gold?) and has a cool down of maybe 6 hours? Just an idea for those rural players that always could use more help and something that could be unique that comes from the stop like maybe a small % chance of one rare candy, charged Tm, etc. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inconsequential Achievement: Triple-IVs all the way from 0 to 15. Posted: 07 Aug 2018 01:56 AM PDT It all began when I was contemplating my first 0-0-0 IV. "Hey, that's just as rare as a wild 15-15-15! But so is a 1-1-1, and a 2-2-2..." And now collection is complete. I've found most scores multiple times, but I'm only counting the first of each score for my collection. The gallery: https://imgur.com/a/08B7S02 For the record:

| Pokémon GO Plus is STILL shagged. Posted: 07 Aug 2018 03:16 AM PDT Niantic, what's wrong with the Pokémon GO Plus and Android handsets?
It's been months. With every game update as-of-late there's a high chance the Pokémon GO plus will break, and what's more frustrating is that we can't even revert app versions due to forced updates. I don't think mine has worked consistently since around version 0.91. (v101 also worked excellently, but after that things went very south.)
I've never had so much difficulty connecting a simple Bluetooth device; I think I've spent at least 6 hours of my life trying various things to fix it. It's not fair to continue to retail a device for £35 which regularly breaks.
Handset: HTC 10 OS: Android 7.0
Here's the stuff people are going to suggest but I've found that none of this actually works; the device seems to work sporadically/whenever it feels like it.
• Restarting your phone. • Force-unpair the Pokémon GO plus and then re-connect it. • Using third-party PoGO Plus scripts to help it connect. • Clearing app cache/bluetooth cache. • Reinstalling Pokémon GO.

| [humor] This is why Niantic will set a limit to Pokemon rewards storage. Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:01 PM PDT |weekly grownups meeting| Niantic Head of Development (HD):... and so that's how PVP will be implemented. Niantic Players Representative (PR): They will be surprised...but that's really the best way you could do it? HD: Of course. We had all this time of experience developing the game, we did our research, we now listen to the community, they will love it this time! Speaking of community what are those guys on reddit whining now? Niantic Community Manager (CM): well they are asking for some kind of counter in order know how many Pokemon rewards they have in storage. HD: what do you mean? we have no such feature! CM You know... when they redeem a reward. If its a Pokemon and they run from the encounter the reward Pokemon encounter actually accumulates HD: why would anyone do such thing?! How many player have rewards Pokemon in storage? Niantic Data Guy (DG): Eighty five! HD: tha'ts not that bad! DG: Eighty five per cent. HD: WHY!!! Who would ever think, dammed creatures, We did it in order to players not loosing their rewards in case of the 12k possible exceptions that could broke the game! that was not a storing feature!! We even gave them trading!!!!!!!!.... by the way how many players traded today? DG: Ninety two. HD: Ninety percent! that's nice! I knew they would love it! DG: No. Just Ninety two............

| [Complaint] Why is yamna still a chance of a ditto? Posted: 07 Aug 2018 01:53 PM PDT I barely seen any yamna so was excited to get with gen 4 possibly round the corner, pinap+ultra and it's a bloody ditto. Still caught more dittos than ghosts on the mew quest. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 09:00 PM PDT I wrote down Pokemon spawns for several of my incense uses, and I get things like Jigglypuff, Rattata, Hoothoot, Weedle, etc. Just the regular ol' useless trash Pokemon that normally spawn around here. The incense seems to add one spawn every 5 min or so, so you only get 6 additional trash Pokemon in the 30 minute time period. So useless.

| [Humor] Lucky-not-lucky tiny Magmar Posted: 07 Aug 2018 02:47 PM PDT 100%, lucky...lvl 1. I'm tempted to keep him that way as a jewel in the tiny crew collection. It's that or power him through to a Magmortar. 75k dust would take him to 2k CP for reference. [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| "Well, a rainbow just flew right over me and blasted a car with its laser vision!" Posted: 07 Aug 2018 06:01 PM PDT https://i.imgur.com/rgga6Ql.jpg I just realized that now we cannot spin or show the Pokemon's animation on the Pokedex anymore, if you try to drag your finger in them, it only goes to the next one. I'm sure many will be super sad of that change, right? ... right? [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| [Screenshot] I got something pretty rare from a trade today. Posted: 07 Aug 2018 08:24 AM PDT My mum started playing recently, she works for a train company so gets good opportunities to catch Pokémon for 2-3 candy trades. We trade every now and then, and I've had some good trades before but nothing comes close to this. Level 1 100% Lucky Alolan Meowth Both Pokémon caught within the last month - the Meowth was hatched 21st of July, and the Meowth I sent was hatched 13th July.

| Posted: 06 Aug 2018 04:13 PM PDT On Saturday a group of us decided to go to the local water park because it was an absolute heat wave. I bought us these cheap $5 clear phone pouches from Walmart so we could skip out on getting lockers. The reviews were great and they all said it was fully submersible. I tested it out at home in the sink and the reviews were true! Nobody else in my group that day plays Pokémon so it wasn't on my brain really. A few loops into the lazy river, an idea popped into my mind. LAZY EGG HATCHING. The current was slow enough that it absolutely counted towards my distance. I was able to blow through so many gifted eggs that I'd been hoarding in my friends list. The river curved around a gym long enough for me to beat the lone Pokémon inside and replace with my own. And the path went past a pokestop! Plus an area near the entrance was spawning sunkerns all day so I was able to get a brand new sunflora! Overall a super successful play day that I didn't expect. Don't worry, I wasn't on my phone the entire time! Power save mode was my savior and I had a blast with my friends. The boomerang slide scared me out of my mind and the wave pool kicked my ass. ;) Edit: By the way if anyone is wondering the brand of the waterproof pouch, this is it! There was one other brand there at the same price that had two white snaps on it instead of the spin locks and all the reviews said they did NOT work. But mine went fully underwater every time I jumped out of my tube and the entire time I was in the wave pool. No leaks. They weren't hanging with the phone cases in the middle of the isle but they were hanging on both ends of almost every tech isle.

| [Question][Complaint] Need help with account but Niantic support won't help Posted: 07 Aug 2018 09:11 PM PDT Hey folks, long time lurker first time poster. Recently I was the victim of fraud, on June 27th someone hacked into my Google account and started making purchases on a bunch of games, Pokemon Go included. I contacted Google first and they helped refund everything, because I was getting receipts to my phone the charges never hit my credit card, thankfully. After that I started hitting up support teams for the games I played to fix my accounts (some purchases happened in games I don't play so I didn't care to reach out to fix my account). They were all super helpful in either restoring what I had previously or fixing up negative currency from purchases that never went through because of the fraud, but receipt validation determined the receipt was refunded so it removed the currency. All of them were helpful (even EA) except for Niantic. I have placed 3 different tickets all resulting in the same thing - they tell me it's my fault my account was hacked, they say I bought premium items like incubators and then when the coins were removed my account went negative. Here's the thing - the only incubators I've had recently were from completing the Mew quest line. All in all, I was just trying to get my balance at least reset to 0 just so I could accrue my coins again and actually make purchases when I go on raiding sprees. Ever since June 27th I've been fighting a losing battle with Niantic support who copies and pastes the same sentiment every time blaming me for the problem, and when I ask for a supervisor they stop answering my tickets all together. Has anyone had any luck with Niantic support through any other means? Note: My PokeCoin balance is current -13000, and with the daily 50 defender bonus it'd take me about 200 days to get into positive numbers again. Oh, also one representative told me to "use the money from your refund to purchase PokeCoins to get a positive balance". :/ [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What happens after you catch Mew? Can you do the special research again? Posted: 07 Aug 2018 02:04 PM PDT As above, really; just wondering if you can repeat the tasks and get Mew again? Apologies if it's been asked but I couldn't find it on here or Google. Thanks! [link] [comments] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 07 Aug 2018 08:15 AM PDT With all the mess with bag space, spinning Pokéstops, and receiving presents… it could always be worse. Individual Pokémon candy could take up bag space. [link] [comments] |
