Level 38 but it's level 37 to submit and review stops

>Decide to approve stops on wayfarer to gain an upgrade

Why does every facet of this game have a miserable cooldown? Fuck off with this shit. I fucking hate wayfaretrannies so goddamn much. How dare they penalize me for approving shit people submitted a little too fast or didn’t reject enough stops or whatever the fuck they wanted. Also
>Cooldown was originally 6 hours
>Wake up next morning
>Cooldown now says to wait 12 hours
I seriously can’t believe you can get penalized for this shit. It took me ages to get to level 38/7 and this is my reward? That upgrade better be worth it. I was feeling really good about giving people pokestops and potential gyms to work with in their rural areas but as per fucking always niantic has to ruin it for me.

Is Shadow Unfezant any good? I got a 14/13/14

Seems comparable to Staraptor stat-wise, so probably
>>
>>53464156
it's a solid flying attacker, its biggest fault is that flying is kind of a niche raid typing to begin with. But it'll do good work once the bug UBs rotate back into raids.

Would a purified Girafarig with Psychic fangs+Return be good for low level pvp?

You weren't even necessarily doing it wrong. The cooldown happens and your rating is lowered even if you do it too fast, regardless of whether you are getting agreements.

Repost from last thread but I need to get rid of this gym and promote this stop to a gym (yellow line is the big cell)
Anyone know any tricks to get rid of a gym? I tried removing surrounding wayspots until there were only 19/20 total in the cell (including gyms) but that didn't work
I tried getting the gym itself removed on Wayfarer but holy shit waytroons should be exterminated, those people are the most miserable freaks on the internet and I say that as someone on 4chan

Anyone have any tricks or know something I haven't tried yet to get rid of the gym?
>>
>>53464285
go home and actualize it
>>
>>53463996
You're too fast. You get the block if you don't wait 20seconds between nominations too many times.

what are the real cheapest and best to use mons for ultra league?
>>
>>53464504
I already told you in the other thread, move the gym to the next large cell over, meanwhile upload more photos to your home stop

Is it even possible to get a hundo from gbl? All I get are bottom of the bin 2 star shitters every time.

lol

i got a hundo meditite last season from gbl

it's a playground so when waytroons would look at the satellite image they'd be able to see where it is and deny the move unfortunately

does upgrading your account on wayfarer make your nominations go through faster? or what's the point of reviewing until you're upgraded? higher chance to get accepted?
>>

higher chances of cooldowns

Don't know why you retards are still trying to use Wayfarer, but it will be a cold day in Hell before I open that website again just so that I can get the 250 agreements needed to get the platinum medal.

Any other tankers trying to enjoy Ultra League?

I like sending shiny Pokemon to HOME and I finally got the Ho-oH by making multiple spoofing alts and just rerolling every day until I got it. I got it. Still fuck Niantic faggots. Add a fucking pity system. Jfc even Genshit has a pity system. Pokemon GO is literally the worst and greediest gacha I've ever played.

Hanke used to give us mildly-themed events, but then he learned that only xenophilia gets people outside the U.S. invested. Hanke knows that people in the U.S. aren't going to be more likely to play Pokémon GO if they cater to out holidays, but he also knows that raid pass sales skyrocket in non-white countries when you pander to their holidays. Frankly, I'm surprised they still acknowledge Halloween.

During the rocket event, using charged tms on shadow metang/metagross would yield you a "Meteor mash" move right? Only the ones you got from raids or using elite tms will give you the move. Or I'm just wrong?

>>53466688
Wheres the tits and ass?
>>
>>53467622
During rocket events, charged TMs can remove frustration from any Shadow Pokémon that still know it, learning a random move instead.
Frustration usually serves as a "lock" on that Pokémon instead.

Regardless of being Shadow or not, evolving a Metang into a Metagross, or catching a Metagross as a result of a raid, field research, or just in a wild, will not know Meteor Mash unless there is a special event that will give it that move. The most recent availability of that move was a championships themed event in August 2022.
https://pokemongolive.com/post/world-championships-event-2022/?hl=en

Your options are to remove frustration from a Shadow Beldum / Metang and wait until a new event featuring Meteor Mash begins, or to use an Elite TM on a Shadow Metagross that has had frustration removed (though I think the ETM can probably just remove frustration, too).

It's also possible to teach a shadow Pokémon a second move, though the unlock cost can be expensive. This is a way to bypass frustration when you can't wait for a Rocket takeover event.

Incidentally, I have a superb Shadow Bagon (15/14/13) that's been waiting ages for Outrage Salamence to return.
In raid battles, Outrage is greatly preferable, but it's also a pretty minor improvement over Draco Meteor and absolutely not worth burning an Elite TM on.

GMT+7 Indonesia reporting in.
Pretty satisfied with current Community Day, got myself 19 Slowpoke shinies, 10 Galarian and 9 Kantonian. However the IVs are all dogshit and the best one is 2 max HP DEF with a single bar on ATK. Probably will just send most of them to Home.
>>
>>53466776
it will only give you King Rocks, not worth it even for a dollar
>>
>>53468174
Reminder that if you have LGPE, transferring kantomons directly to the game doesn't consume the cooldown bar (and your LGPE character will become OT)

Just do greats until you can hit the middle consistently
>>
>enough coins only for one lucky egg
I fucked up big time I guess
>>
>>53468446
I have two accounts so I've had twice as many opportunities to practice my throws, I always practice on the backup account before throwing on the main

In the case of Ho-Oh just aim directly for the head, it's close enough that the ball doesn't really have time to curve. Circle-setting is a bit tricky though because you have to wait late into the attack animation to throw, you risk throwing post-attack instead of mid-attack.

Can I meet the evolution requirement for a a-slowpoke and switch it to other then evolve it later on?

I assume so but I wouldn't test it today. they're changing the evolution requirements for the CD so its entirely possible that when the requirements change back to normal it could reset your progress

Kanto Slowbro already had sizable bulk but is going to be much better now at killing GFisk, Charizard, Bastiodon, and such with Surf, along with it already hard countering Medicham. It can also have different moves based on the needs of the rest of your team, and may or may become meta.

iv chances don't change on CDs so they are still 1/4096 or whatever for one single combination.
shiny rates are around 1/20 to 1/40 on CDs

>shadow pokemon's pvp stats don't have a shadow or purify symbol next to them
does that mean it doesn't make a difference if it's shadow or pure? does that actually happen?

also, if every shadow is stronger than normal I should keep all of them right? should I ever delete shadows if I need room or always delete the normal(non shadow) version of that pokemon first if I have it?

>>53469275
Not entirely sure what you mean but I think that app just gives you a % relative to it's "perfect" stats for pvp, which do not change whether purified or regular or shadow. The performance of the pokemon in gbl or raids will change, but it's stats are the same.

And you should only keep good shadows. There are tons of shadows that are useless no matter what. Good pokemon with shadow versions, like Magnemite or Beldum, aren't always worth keeping either. You'll eventually find better stats and shadows are too resource intensive to power up too many of them, so it only makes sense to be selective.
>>
>>53469314
I don’t see why they can’t just do that. Luckies and perfects and 3 stars and shinies and hatmons have their own pokedex section but the XXX’s don’t.

Sometimes it tards out and doesn't realize it's a shadow. Top right should have an icon with three dots, select that and look towards the bottom for "edit", and toggle it to "shadow"
>>53469343
It does change from shadow to purified, because the IVs change when you purify it.
And shadows are actually cheaper to power up in terms of raid performance.

Pokémon GO is ((SUPPOSED)) to be about catching Pokémon while walking and interacting with your community. The base shiny rate in Go is 1/500.

no, it's supposed to be about collecting your data with regards to location and nearby devices while disguised as interacting with geolocated spawned and stops and gyms.

Of course not, before level 50 was introduced, excellent throws only net you 100 XP, not 1000.

This community day event let help you power-level a few million XP quite quickly, an easy 7K XP per Slowpoke.
>>
>>53471012
>>53471074
Yeah, absolutely not. Triple catch XP on a piss easy excellent, doubled from an egg, plus additional bonuses for megas and weather is a stupid multiplier. Raked in 4.5 million today with 4 eggs, a max level Mega Gardevoir, and windy weather all 3 hours

NTA but just look at gamepress or a DPS/TDO spreadsheet.
The shadows you want to keep are things like Dratini, Beldum, Swinub, Machop, Murkrow, Ralts, Electabuzz, Mudkip, Bulbasaur...
Some can be purified for a (preferably) hundo mega, like Abra, Ralts, g1/g3 starters, Weedle
Shitters: Rattata, Sandshrew, Vulpix, Zubat, Oddish, Diglett, Ducklett, Oddish, Psyduck, Natu, Whismur, Shuckle, Numel, Duskull, Patrat, Foongus...
Some shitmons can be purified cheaply (1k) for medal progression though.

gives you busy work for a small pittance of "premium" items and guaranteed slowpoke spawns as rewards. usually they aren't worth the dollar but that's up to you. the night before the CD just always google the rewards for that ticket since new zealanders who buy it will have the rewards known first and you can decide to buy it or not from that

Barely managed to get one of everything for every possible extension of slowpoke but I guess I didn’t need any surplus shinies anyway so it’s fine
Guess I got really unlucky with shiny checking, kept tapping on hordes and hordes and nothing
>>
>>53471125
The game should tell you what is in it when you highlight it in the store. They aren't worth it typically. Only things you should be buying (if at all) are event tickets that pay for its self in terms of Raid Passes, or coins to get raid passes from the bundles in the store (if I recall correctly, the only time you SHOULD buy those boxes is if it has 15+ raid passes, otherwise its not cost efficient?)

It's way easier now. They only added the 1000xp for excellent throws when they raised the level cap to 50 and added XL candies, it used to only be 100. They increased the xp for other stuff but that was the most impactful.

No clue, this is over literal years. Don't bother outside of community days.

>>53472134
Oof, so a pretty slim chance of getting it with my ~40 stockpiled modules. I'd have to get 63 catches per module, or 2 per minute, which seems rough. I don't think there are enough spoofers to hit that requirement unless I do something like hit Kiribati as the spawns change.
>>
>>53472154
Progressing the lure module badge medal is basically dependent on there being an actual community of players.

Drop a lure module during a CD or during any kind of community meet-up like a trading or PvP session, and you'll get some progress.

I just happened to hit platinum on that medal today, all it took was to drop two lure modules in the park to finish it off.

of course not. It's not a good pvp IV spread nor is the Mon good for PvE.

Hold out for better, if Swablu candies are an issue.

Mega Altaria will likely re-run in mega raids and is an easy duo, you throw Steel types (Metagross) and Ice Types (Mamoswine, Galarian Darmanitan, Weavile) at it.

Also, if you get opportunities for trading sessions, ask for Swablu, go for the lucky.
