-_- energy editionWhat is Pokémon Sleep?Pokémon Sleep is a sleep tracking app that utilizes your smartphone and/or the Pokémon Go Plus + device to record data as you sleep. In doing so, you'll be able to meet a variety of Pokémon and fill out your Sleep Style Dex.>Pokémon Website Pagehttps://www.pokemon.com/us/app/pokemon-sleep/>Team/Strength Calculatorhttps://pks.raenonx.cc/en/team/analysisBe sure to post your Researcher ID so that you can add and share candy with fellow Anons. We are currently locked to having a total of only fifty friends but hopefully this will change in the future.Previous thread>>54445327
turns out 3* styles aren’t a myth
>>54473943I got two this morning
>>54473943They are on greengrass
They really need to let us just choose the sleep style we want for the night. I used to be the Slumber King but now I am the...
Still have space for more people
>>54474189That kind of defeats the purpose. If they do it'll probably be an item that invites pokemon of certain sleep types regardless of your nightly sleep type. I want dozing but it's been so long. I'm at the beach because I want Pinsir and just need 3 more points. Come home my lovely beetle friend.
>>54473930>Somehow app closed while I was asleep>Tries to retrieve data it never saves FFFUUUUUUCK YOOOOOUUUUSecond time in 7 days. First time I understand what could have happened, but not this time.
it's another>Your phone performed updates and restarted automatically at 3 amkind of night...
>>54474328Problem is it just simply isn't accurate; I've changed nothing in my sleeping habits nor with the phone's position on the bed, but 2 weeks ago it leaned toward slumbering constantly and now it just won't get off dozing or balanced. There are nights I haven't even woken up to piss and it still considers me dozing.
>>54474451It compares to previous data and it does this (I assume) in order to give you a better variety of pokemon. Otherwise people would tend to get locked into a certain style anyways and have no way to escape it.
add me I desperately need candy3075-0560-8214
Havent had snoozing in so long…my ditto is two biscuits away
worth investing or nah?
>>54474937No. Trash it, now.
>>54474937nah, you'll find plenty of Eevee, it might not happen super quickly but they turn up. use it infrequently for the magnet, but don't hesitate to trash for better option
I really wish the failure-to-track remedies existed as more than a manual time input.You only get energy recovery and an additional daily biscuit on your next tracked session. But then you miss out on your pokemon gathering at full strength during the night, EXP, and of course your research with any opportunity for new pokemon spawns and the dream shards from that. And you can't even try to double-track on the same day, since the previous day is essentially locked out.
>>54474937yes!! make it a vapeoreon
Redpill me on Cooking Power-Up S. Unless you're exclusively adding Soothing Cacao or higher value ingredients, it will always have less value than a proc of Charge Strength M of the same level. And this doesn't factor in the cost of using that many more ingredients each time and having to use another Pokemon just to farm for those rare and high-value ingredients.
>>54475017I know that feel bro.That happened to me on Good Sleep Night and I only got maybe 15 minutes recorded before the app shat itself.Only solution so far is to prevent it from happening next time.>tfw I used two EXP incenses on that nightyes, I still mad
>>54475621Because not many pokemon even have Charge Strength M, let alone the help frequency to use it very often. Unless you're literally scraping by with ingredients to fill your pot, chances are you'll always have excess that you can feed in. Not to mention Sunday bonus pot size and some recipes that require more space than you may normally have available.
>Lvl10 Berry Finding>No Slowpoke TailsWe were so close to greatness
>>54475621it's a late-game skill. Eventually, even your non-ingredient-specialist Mons are gonna be dropping 3-5 ingredients at a time.
>>54476267>even your non-ingredient-specialist Mons are gonna be dropping 3-5 ingredients at a time.Why would this be the case? Not like mine of ingredients dropped increases. Unless you mean when they're at capacity
>>54476309Don't you see your pokemon's stat page where it shows which ingredients they get at Level 30 and Level 60? Some pokemon will be getting up to 8 ingredients per help trigger.
>some people are already above rank 30Luckniggers get the rope
>>54476201>shit natureNot that close
I will not use The Bugs
>>54477542You will
Nice presents for the feature update>1000 sleep points>20 small candy>focus incense>10 pokebiscuitsalso the 100m Befriended Bundles are live>600 jims for S>3000 jims for M
ayyy and we got some free shit let's go
>>54478530Growth I meant, not focus.
>>54478546Helping Bonus fixed when?!
>>54478530Shit that 3k bundle is actually a bit cracked. The value of the biscuits and incense alone is like 4.9k, but 3 m candy and 10 s candy on top of it?Not getting it myself because I'm not about to spend 50 bucks, but holy hell.
>Game Acknowledges existence of Short Sleepers>MFW my 5-ish hour sleep cycle still gets me jack shit points
>>54478546>Adding new relaxing soundsOh nice. I was hoping for that.
I guess this is the time to level your exp- nature pokemon up to the patch being active and storing your exp+ nature ones for when the patch is live.>benched pokemon recovering bits of energy after sleepNeat>cooked dishes restores energy is a bugI didn't know that happened.
>>54478570so 150 candies total for one pokemon. that's like 3,750 experience for that one mon. if a mon is in the level 20s, should be bumped up by 6 levels. that's still alot.
/zzz/!what are you using your free candies on?
>>54478697might as well use them on my exp down eevee before they patch it
I opened my app to collect the gift and some berries, but I had my ++ on sleep mode. Did I interrupt the sleep session?
>>54478831Nope. I use my phone and the app all the time while my plus is tracking sleep. I'm worried they will patch it to fuck me for cheating so blatantly though.
>>54478697Saving, but most likely Wartortle once he gets to level 26 and if I don't have enough candy by then.
>>54478831Nope, you need to stop tracking after you've finished sleeping and connect the GO++ to Sleep with the menu on the bottom right and everything should register as usual.It's one of the benefits of using the GO++, you can use the phone whenever you want without interruption.>>54478697Probably gonna wait and store it for now.
>>54478713wait what's the glitch
>>54478927nta but the future feature note said that natures with exp isn't working, so probably that
>>54478845>>54478867Thanks. Was worried that it would have that "2 sleep sessions was detected" and then the app would just pick a random pokemon to befriend
I'm starting to realize this game is fucking big time with my gambling addiction lol. Oh well better buy more great biscuits, next Pichu is gonna be the one!
Honestly I think you should get at least 1 free random hungry pokemon per day. Given that you get only the 1 free cookie and your spawns are capped by at 2 recordings at maximum, divided by the number of hours you slept, it takes forever if you don't spend extra biscuits.
I was so close...>>54478554Is it really broken?
Looking for more friends. I always log in every day.2636-9616-5085
Can any experts help me? I started sunday and saved up enough points for a master ball. Should I buy it or just spend on regular cookies? I was also thinking of staying on greengrass instead of going to the newly unlocked cyan next week. Is that advisable or not? Also, how do the main skills get triggered? Will I have more chances to trigger them by clicking on my mons often throughout the day? Or are the skills on a timed cooldown or something? General tips are obviously also welcome!!>>54474249>>54474522>>54479342Added! I have a few spots left to fill if anyone wants to add me: 6831-3648-9185
>>54479315Testing has shown that it doesn't do anything atm. devs haven't acknowledged it or anything, so it's either getting stealth patched, the devs aren't aware it's broken, or those testing it had flawed data. We don't really know which.>>54479433You should always have at least 1 master biscuit on-hand, just in case. Stay on Greengrass until you can put together a decent team of fairy, flying, and water-type pokemon, since those correspond to the snorlax's favorite berries on Cyan Beach. As for main skill triggers, it's complicated, but clicking on your pokemon more often isn't going to make them trigger more often and its not a set cooldown either.
>>54479004Stay on the grind bro, next one for sure!
>>54479535Thank you! What are the pokemon I should consider using the masterball cookie on? It would suck if I used it on a pokemon with a shit nature or something
>>54479604Getting a shitty nature/subskills is going to always be a risk. Right now, most people use their master balls on pokemon like Ditto or Absol, since they require a lot of points to befriend and they don't evolve, so you can't just evo your way up to them. Its for this same reason its typically not worth using a master ball on a stage 2 or 3 pokemon, since you can just find a stage 1 with a good nature/subskills for a fraction of the investment and evo your way up.
>>54479672Got it. Thank you again!
Man, I keep getting (multiple) Bonsly and Sudowoodo every time I get Slumbering. I just want a good Squirtle and Totodile... I did get a shiny Bonsly this morning, though
>>54479794This morning, I had two pikachu sleeping the same way I'd already seen, and two rattata, one sleeping a new way, and a growlithe. Already had one of those too. I needed Three new styles to rank up, and got TWO out of five fucking pokemon. Still no shinies.
>>54479794I keep fucking getting Geodudes and Wynauts at Taupe, shit sucks
Kind of want to buy a bundle, but I already have so many biscuits.If I clear the premium shop, I’ll be at 42 regular biscuits and 9 great biscuits. It’s really tempting to stock up. Do these go to your present box or to your inventory?
Hey guys can you add me as a friend?7229-1537-5456I lost my account due to error
Oh neat.He stinks, as usual, but neat.
>Activate Plus+ 5 minutes before i get home>Entire 10 hours not tracked due to it being movedI am fucking crying right now, I used the fucking double exp and double dream shardsI'm crying bros, I never thought it would not track the rest of the ENTIRE sleepWell, at least I've found out the hard way of what not to do
>>54480954that fucking blows
>>54480954I learned this the hard way as well a few weeks back, it sucks immensely nothing freaky happened, dog thought it was a toy and started zooming through the house while chasing it
Anyone buying the bundle? I have enough for the S with free diamonds, but I do kind of want the other.
So is the best team just ones that give straight points to snorlax? I've only had it for about a week and a half. Barely have any pokemon though, because I keep getting the same boring ones. Haven't even seen any shinies.
>>54481213I have ~900 free dias and I'm going to save for when they release a 1000 diamond bundle, whatever it may be
Is the 600 diamond bundle worth it? Or should they just be used for bag/box expansion?
>>54480954Yes. It’s why every while I’ll shake or jiggle my bed or even kick it.
>>54480463Inventory. I’m full so it won’t let me get the other bundle.
>>54479031It’s what good camp ticket it for
>>54481294Yeah, but you gotta buy that too. Even the premium pass only provides you with 1 per month.
>>54481339That’s the only thing I’ve spent my free gems on, managed to get two or theee at this point. Obviously that dries up eventually but I’ve been happy with that use of 500 gems per.
Anyone gotten a Mon to level 30 yet?Does the ingredients stack or is it just a chance at finding slot 1 and 2 separately?
>>54481680Eevee Anon here, they stack.
>>54481706It’s a chance at finding one of the 3.
>Eevee Anon herenobody gives a fuck. if you want a username so bad go to fucking reddit
>>54481706nigga who the fuck are you
>>54481820>>54481870he only has a team of eevee, and is only powering up 1 eevee iirc, that's why he knows
God I just want a cyndaquilplease let me SNOOZE
>>54481221It really depends on what you have available. I have 5 pokemon that drop 2 berries Snorlax prefers and they do better than my team with skills and ingredients because they're more consistent. Meal contributions add up if you can hit all 3 meals and/or get a lucky tasty meal.You get a 5% bonus each week per location so that helps too. Not sure what the cap is on that but it's at least 35% which is essentially a free passive extra meal and 8 hours of berries.
I've started using this app 2 days ago to motivate a better sleep schedule. Anons who have been using it for a while - how did this work out for you? Also, going for 8 hours of sleep consistently makes me wake up very sleepy, but after 6 hours of sleep I can practically leap out of the bed after awakening. Any tips on how I should go about this?
>>54481974The app is quite good for motivating you to sleep by gamifying it, I give a lot of props to the pokemon company for trying this because sleep is something you spend a third of your life doing and it's constantly overlooked when it comes to health.Exactly 8 hours of sleep you typically have you waking up in the middle of a sleep cycle owing to your extra sleepy feeling. Try going for 7.5 or 9 hours.Alternatively the app has it's own alarm feature that attempts to wake you at the optimal time at the end or beginning of a cycle.t. I work in sleep medicine
>>54482000>Alternatively the app has it's own alarm feature that attempts to wake you at the optimal time at the end or beginning of a cycle.Where can I find that?
>>54481882No one cares
>>54482041It's on the blue screen that the app shows when you put it down to go to sleep.I just max mine out at 45 minutes.
Am I intentionally handicapping myself by being a jew and hoarding all my candies until I get a God roll on a pokemon?I haven't used a single one yet after weeks of playing.
>>54482163If you have pokemon with good sub skills on the first two slots you would benefit from leveling and evolving them.Better mons means better gains means more pokemon appearing in the morning.
>>54481820>>54481870Congratulations on never reading these threads, other people called me Eevee anon so I used that as shorthand so people would know that I know what I'm talking about. If I actually wanted to use a name, I'd put it in the name field that has existed longer than reddit.
>>54482191what does your handle of eevee anon have to do with anything posted, it isn't relevant to the information being posted at all, it just screams attentionfagging.>so people would know that I know what I'm talking aboutliterally anybody can pretend to be anybody else, I'm the real eevee anon btw
>>54482186What are the good subskills?
>>54482219>someone asks a question about level 30 ingredients>people who call me Eevee anon do so because I have a level 35 EeveeWhy did you jump into this thread just to complain about something you don't know shit about?
Alright so is the goal to dump all your candy on exp down nature pokemon before they patch it?
>>54482261If it's otherwise good yeah, gaining 20 exp per candy will be hell, and super late game exp down natures will still be the best.
>>54482261>Fixes to an issue that caused the effects of Pokémon Natures not to be reflected when candies were used to give EXPDoesn't state it directly, but it does sound like it. I only use candy on the 8/10 or closer to perfection. EXP down is the only nature that has no downsides once your perfect pokemon is lvl 100, so they want to find more incentive that a player spends more time/money
>>54482225Depends on the specialisation and line.Berry specialists want speed of help above all else and are really hindered by ingredient finding.Ingredient specialists care more about ingredient finding and maybe 1 inventory skill.Skill pokemon want skill chance and level up mostly.There are outliers like Slowpoke. Skill specialist pokemon with an unimpressive main skill. They are 1 of 2 species that can give Slowpoke tails. Finding a slowpoke that give slowpoke tails as level 30 and 60 ingredients with increased ingredient chance is solid despite being off-specialty.Post some pokemon so we can shit on your bad rolls and give more concrete advice.
Removed 3 inactivespls be gentle 4135-6168-1159
Got a pretty good slowpoke, what’s the difference between his two evolutions?
>>54482884Slowking is better because it's slightly faster.
>>54483121Is that the only difference?I guess it’s more expensive in terms of evolution mats but it’d take 100 years to get it to level 28 for slowbro anyway
>>54482333NTA, but I happen to have a Slowpoke with Increased Ingredient finding and lowered skill chance. Is that worth using, or is the negative one too hindering?
>>54482884yeah that's going to be a fucking nice slowking
>>54483191what are the subskills?
>>54483206Energy Recovery Bonus, Inventory up S, Helping Speed S, Ingredient Finder M, and Inventory up M.
>>54483223trash it.
>>54478697immediately used it on an exp down doduo. is now a dodrio :-Dother than exp down its ideal
Technically I don't think you would even want to run a Slowking due to how slow its base speed is. Its ability isn't particularly attractive, and the only thing you would even want it for is to unlock tails for your other pokemon with Ingredient Magnet skills.
>>54482191>waaah i want to be known as eevee anon in an anonymous boardFuck off
>>54482219>>54482239if anyone would know the answer to the original question, it would be eevee anon. though it could be anyone posing without a screencap
>>54483230I was just curious. Not even sure what's really good since I just started recently. Not even sure what to spend gems on.
>>54483373Imo hang onto them for either a good bundle or the good camp ticket.
>>54483341or literally anyone with a level 30, which im sure there are plenty of. this is literally just tripfagging
>>54483396Probably going to get the ticket then, to help build a better team faster, thanks.
>>54483419Honestly I would hold off on most purchases so that you can get your best value. If you plan on still getting a Good Camp Ticket, you'll want to use it during the Full Moon week (once per month), where you get a few days of boosted EXP and Snorlax points.You do accumulate gems via achievements and weekly bonuses, but as a paid resource, they're valuable to keep around. I've spent a little, but that was just on storage space.
>>54483435Ah, that's all I've bought with them too, just a little space. Thanks for the tip, I'll keep it in mind. Didn't know about the boosted week.
>>54479433>I was also thinking of staying on greengrass instead of going to the newly unlocked cyan next week. Is that advisable or not?you would need to hit at least master in GreenGrass before you go to the Beach. since it gets harder and harder to get higher ranks on the new islands. also do you have enough recipies saved up? like if you go to a new island and you get salads you might not have a good time if you've never cooked that stuff before. nobody knows the rest, sometimes main skills go off every hour sometimes you wont get a proc all day.
>>54479604also if you ever see a shiny pokemon, you only need to feed it 1 regular biscuit to befriend it.
>>54481294full moon event weeks.
>>54483160>Is that the only difference?yes
Yesterday my two Wigglytuff went crazy and proc'd a lot after a nap that by the time I went to sleep, they still had 110% in energy. After waking up and the two proc'd again, their energy became 128%. So now I'm wondering whether the energy just don't decrease during sleep or it's just a bug?
>>54482163You're doing it right. Like the other Anon said, if the level 10 subskill is an immediate benefit just hit 10 and continue hoarding. At friendship 10 (meaning catch 9) they start getting guaranteed gold subskills in the level 10 slot. At this point you can start investing in the good ones. Play the long game and you'll come out ahead.
>>54484914Speaking of, would be nice to get slumbering or balanced again so i can collect more pichu.
Would this Eevee lend itself particularly well to any specific Eeveloution or would any be fine? Its the first somewhat decent one I've come across.
Oh you fucker my first berry finding at level 10Honestly could have been worse
>>54485004For balanced just log a fake a midday nap. For slumbering, "sleep" while you do your normal nightly bedtime routine and keep the phone on the head-side corner opposite of the side you wake up on. Using this pic from the game, put your phone there if you tend to wake up on the left side of the bed. It tracks sleep almost immediately (about 6 minutes to "slumber") while you do other things so your score goes up too. I tend to put the phone down for the night about 1.5-2 hours before I actually go to bed so I start with a decent chunk of slumber and usually get upper 90s-100 scored. I do wake the screen about 45 minutes after starting and again before actually sleeping so it registers a little movement.If you want more snoozing then put it on the same side you wake up on, and for dozing I put it more by my waist so all arm and leg movement gets logged.
>>54485206Since it's got early berry finding, I'd go for Sylveon or Espeon, since neither Fairy nor Psychic have a berry specialist atm. With the ingredient finding down nature, it makes for a pretty great off-build.
Anyone know if there is any advantage to not evolving, such as lower cost for leveling as it is in some cases with the main series (I thought this was a thing, anyway)? I know there are disadvantages to stay unevolved, but just curious if maybe I should keep my negative XP babies as they are for now.
>>54485414almost pure downsides to staying unevolved apart from vigoroth evolving, as i understand it
>>54485414Not really, except for Swablu if you for some reason want to keep the Flying-type berries vs Dragon-type when it evolves. And also Vigoroth slowing down its helping speed once it evolves into Slaking. And I guess you can count Eevee changing its berry-type and Skill depending on which you evolve it into.But pretty much everything (except Slaking) gets faster help speed and carrying capacity. EXP is the same regardless of its evolution state.
>>54485447>>54485525Alright, thanks for the spoonfeeding guys. So if I were to get a slakoth or vigoroth, is slaking something to avoid altogether or is it better at other things than vigoroth is?
Damn, my igglybuff was at over 50 hours and now she's back to none. I just evolved a pichu. Is this evolution stat teamwide or something?
>>54485727I'm fairly certain it's not. Back then I evolve a bunch of pichu and iggly together after receiving a lot of compensation candies. Though, it's possible that some things had changed.
>>54485727Could be a display bug. Evolved my Pichu yesterday when the evolve screen said I had 50+, but the stats below nature said 9 hours slept together.
>>54485727On a related note.. are the sleep hour evolutionary requirements shared among pokemon of the same species? Like the cookie friendship system? Or are they unique for every single pokemon of said species? Basically, can I sleep with a bad eevee and use its sleep hours to evolve a different one later on?
>>54485998I clicked evolve and nothing, even after restart. The bottom of the screen is always glitched, even for pokemon I had sleep with me the entire time I have used the app. The evolve screen reset to 0 for me and it coincided with evolving Pichu as far as I can tell. If I knew that would happen, then I would have evolved Igglybuff first.
>>54486358Never looked passed the nature until the friendship evolve. Good to know. Hopefully if you sleep with the Iggly on your team it will update your actual sleep time together. Outside of that put in a bug report and hope it gets fixed.
Is this eevee worth investing in?
In addition to the eevee, is an Ekans that never gets tired worth having? I'm still trying to figure out what to use.
Guys, my PoGo++ is failing to connect to my device. It still worked yesterday. Yes, I have the GPS and bluetooth connected.Why is this happening?
Dumped a shitton of candies to get my wortortle to blastoise yesterday and this morning I catch a sguerdo with berry finding S, just fuck my shit up
>>54486817seems decent, nature is somewhat countered by the subskill, and having at least one mon with that on your team will be nice
>>54486976Please respond
>>54486976>>54487107i put this question directly into my google search bar and found an answer within seconds. HOWEVER, i will not tell it to you. muahahahahahahaahahhaahhaahhaahahahahahaaaaaaaaahhssnnrrrrrkkkkkkk
>>54487064Is there something in particular I should evolve it into?
>>54485206https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XDkRi1ZSYA
>>54485711slaking is better with it's inventory obviously that's bigger. and it's main skill chance will be higher, there's some other things going on there that might show that slaking is better on some things but for now i think people just prefer vigo. that might change
>>54486821it's worth having on days snorlax want's poison berries. they carried me so hard on those weeks. ekans and arbok
>>54487163not really. as it's not likely to hit lvl 50 anytime soon. just as an ingredient finder you prob want Glaceon or Flareon or just keep it as an eevee
>>54487205>>54487212Good to know, thanks.
Is a neutral nature good or bad? Feraligatr is just my favorite so I want to know if I can use this guy
>>54487258With these subskills, I'd rather wait for the next one.
>>54487258Research EXP Bonus is probably the second best subskill in the game, just behind Berry Finder S. Reason is, your research level determines the max level of your pokemon. Ideally, you'd have Berry Finder S at 10, and Research EXP Bonus at 25.
>>54487272Unfortunate, but thanks.
>>54487290I'll keep an eye out for those two then, I don't have many pokemon yet, so it's good to know that early!
>>54487313On the bright side, Feraligatr is one of the best pokemon in the game and the beach island Snorlax always has Oran berries as a favourite, so even if you don't evolve that Totodile yet he'd still be useful to have around.
>>54487335Someone said beach always has the same berries and salads. Is that right?
>>54487335I'm on week 2, and picked the beach this time, but I read that I should be sticking around the first area for a while until I have a better team. Happy to know he's generally good, though.
>>54487361The meals can change (I have deserts right now) but the berries are fixed yes.
>>54487377Sticking to the first area is for building up variety, as the first area has the widest but shallowest pool to pull from. Since you have a favourite 'mon in feraligatr, I'd stay in the beach to get as many totodiles as you can. Catching a pokemon increases the friendship level of that species by 1, and once it reaches 10 every pokemon you catch from then on of that species will have a gold subskill at level 10 guaranteed.
>>54487396Oh shit, I didn't know that either. I just knew that friendship bars carrier over if a pokemon got full.
>>54487051Does someone mind telling me if its worth chucking my blastoise for this squirtle? I know berry finding S is top tier, but 2 inventory skills and a speed of help down nature.
Is the careful nature fine for Wiggly?I'd assume for a skill pokemon you'd want a main skill chance ^^ nature even if it won't generate the most power for snorlax.I could really use an energy mon on the team.
>>54487414It was something discovered recently. I haven't confirmed it myself as my sleeping is erratic and I can't catch shit lmao
>>54487425Yeah, that's a fine support 'mon for early game, which everyone is in. Anyone building for late-game when nobody can reach level 50 pokemon yet, let alone 100 is playing wrong.
>>54487419If they were both Squirtles at the same level, I'd say go with the right, but they're so similar overall that I wouldn't waste the resources getting the second one up when it isn't enough of an improvement.
>>54487439I know that all too well, I usually just sleep 4-5 hours and always see the same handful of pokemon. Except for Totodile.
>>54487419Your modest squirtle will start to under-perform the blastoise for ingredient finding by the time you get it to level 25.I'd stick with what you already have already.
Energy for everyone or energizing cheer, which is best?
Can i discard all these fucking linking cords
>>54487489You must keep them.

Bros, I'm not gonna make it...
>on greengrass>mission: Get Snorlax to Master 2>status: on great 4this game is fucking impossible
>>54487907Is the Jigglypuff line that good? I noticed you have two there. I have Iggly, but don't know if it's actually good.
>>54488102when i used my wiggly it felt like it was pretty good, dunno whether it actually is. however, buffing up a jiggly and two cyndaquils like that anon is is probably not ideal
>>54487958what is it like your first week of playing?
>>54488102they're probably not actually good enough to have multiple in an off-berry location but my other rock/ground/fire mons are absolutely awful so I was thinking that I could funnel efficiency into my decent ones by keeping energy up
>>54488129>>54488123Ah, alright then.
Anyone know how the Exp bonuses (or anything with %) stack? Additive? Multiplicative?
>>54487124Fuck you :(
did the nature screw this Caterpie?
>>54488595No, the lack of berry finder did
>>54488616but Caterpies are for ingredients, aren't they?
>>54488624No, the Caterpie line favors berries. Says so at the top, and is why it gets 2x berries at its base level. Ingredient pokmon get 2x ingredients at their base level and have increased ingredient gains at level 30 and 60 compared to other types. I still don't know how "Skill" pokemon play into things since that isn't quantified yet, but I assume it has something to do with skill activation rate.Pokemon active skills are more like a bonus than anything else due to how randomly they trigger.
>>54487445I'm keeping a team of research exp up mons for the long game. A 30% boost to hit level caps isn't negligible
>removed 5 people over the last week>7 people on the docket
If I remove a friend, do I disappear off their list? Or do they have to manually do it?
>>54489378>>54489094What does having friends even do? I haven't added anyone yet.
>>54489459It gives you a candy of whatever pokemon they select as their highlighted pic. Every level up with someone gives a handy candy s too. For reference, I tried to be solo for about 5 weeks and made more progress in the week that I've had about 40 friends than that entire time solo.
>>54489511Well damn, I guess I'll post mine, then.TTKT7KAXB7ARGMRH
>>54489645That's your support ID. Your Researcher ID should only consist of numbers.
I am here to give a formal apology to the wigglytuff meme, after evolving my deadbeat jigglypuff it has started to trigger its ability 4+ times a day at 11 energy a pop. Jesus.
>>54489645this is your support code.im stealing ur account now lol
>>54489645rip
>>54489699My abilities are triggering once, maybe twice a day, even with Main Skill Chance +. I don't really get it.
>>54490156>tfw helping speed+ nature is actually better for main skill triggers than main skill trigger + nature
>>54490365Since help speed is based off of the base help speed, I'm thinking that eventually skill trigger will win out overall in terms of usefulness. The help speed is more apparent on slower pokemon, but of course you'll be better off with a mixture of both.
Mr Mime can get leeks fyi
>>54489669>>54489715>>54489832Fucks sake
>>54491147I want a mime...

So there is definitely a bug with pokemon who require sleep-hours to evolve. My Igglybuff is stuck at zero even after I rested.
>>54491546check the time in the evolution menu, the one at the bottom of the stats has never worked
>>54491557For Igglybuff it's at the top and it said above 50 previously, but after evolving a Pichu on the same team it reset to zero and won't progress.
Oh wow, my Igglybuff's sleep tracking fixed now. Wonder if contacting support helped with that or it just stopped bugging out.
sucks that it says ive only slept 5 hours with my blastoise. ive had it since it was a squirtle so it should include those hours but doesnt :/
I don't want to delete all my friends after hitting +1 friendship with them but if i want those sweet candies it seems i must :(
>>54491782reaching level 5 closeness with friends gives 2 candies each.
Feel like I should invest in this despite the dogshit nature. Should I wait for the exp change to at least get the most out of it?
>>54492185That nature is a huge shame. Its skill makes it kind of ok though.
>>54492185I mean if you can get it to 25 it might not be so bad. Good for the beach anyway
what are your thoughts on off-builds?
>>54488562add
Anyone else's Pokeball Plus Ultra Super Deluxe Go Plus Plus suddenly stop connecting?
>first mime jr is shiny
>>54494073Android? Did you try connecting the device in the Bluetooth pairing menu?
>>54494388I fixed it by removing and re-adding the thing to the app.Not sure what happened.
>>54492185Just 1 more night bro, you'll get the God roll
>>54494604I had the same problem and fixed it by turning my device on and off again
Guess I'll post my own code. Have definitely neglected the friend feature so I have lots of space and not much candy. Time to reverse that.
>>54494328Explode.
>>54494328I like shinies a lot, but I'd honestly be happier about finding one just because it's a free capture. Maybe one day a 'super hungry' or something is introduced that has the same effect.
>>54495355Rude.
oh, they finally filled out that one dead space at ultra 5 cyan with mime
I have tons and tons of dream shards. More than I know what to do with.Am I playing the game wrong? I see a pokemon that has a perk to getting more dream shards and I don't see the point at all.
>>54495606There already is a random chance of that happening.It's actually annoying when it happens because it's always when i just toss my freebie at a hungry mon.
>>54495606That can happen, but it doesn't have a tell. Feeding a regular pokemon can multiply by 3 as if it was hungry for example, and I have seen a non-shiny pokemon insta-capture before but I can't remember if it was hungry or not, only that it got the mega heart.
>>54496297Shard costs for things like the cooking pot skyrocket as you go.So does the shard cost for using candy to level a pokemon.Things seem fine now, but it's easy to suddenly go from 40k to 2k
>>54496297right now candies are rare because you need them to evolve stuffas you start gathering candies to power up your fully evolved pokemon, shard consumption is going to rise drastically. So memes like riolu and meowth might end up being useful to build in the long run.
What's the most shinies anyone's seen?I've only seen 1 so far, but my cousin plays, and I swear he has at least 7 separate species by now. It always pops up in his research.
Great morning today, woke up to 2 hungry croconaws. they both aren't too shabby. and I got another Spheal, which has berry finding at 10, and some other good stuff for it. no bad nature. i was blessed. also was worried i wasnt going to reach masters in cyan beach but today it does look like its going to happen.
Had a Croconaw this morning, got it a good number of points before it got full, I just hope I see it again asap.
>>54496508None yet, but a friend had 2 on the same day, and another friend has one as well.
>>54496508i saw 2 at once, totodile and croconaw, fed the totodile but since i had just woken up i had a brainfart and didn't feed the croconaw since i didn't recognise it as shiny and didn't want to waste anymore biscuits. i didn't realise i fucked up until i saw my own croconaw now this will haunt me forever
>>54496508got a shiny mankey one morning right next to a regular one.Caught both and the nomal mankey mogged the shiny hard.
>>54496757bruh
>>54496508i got an ekans and next morning a chikorita>>54496757they need to sparkle every minute or so because some are just too fucking badly colored or the lighting effects can mess with how it looks

Are people really such ingredientlets that they can't afford to max out the meal pot every sunday?Their snorlaxes will starve
>>54497673I had been hiding this, didn't want it to get patched out if the devs got word of it. Could always catch my sleep which shift I have. Consistent scores every week
What's yalls plans for the new week?What rank are you going for?What are you hoping to catch?What island will you be on? I was thinking about putting a bunch of high inventory berry specialists on the team, so when i wake up I can feed the new snorlax a ton of berries, feed it the previous days dinner andddddd I dunno, maybe stay on the beach i guess? Catching an Alteria would be nice, maybe a better gastly/haunter. I'm hoping to level this pichu up, too
>>54498238>What island will you be on?still undecided on this front.... a part of my autismo wants to 100% an area before moving to the next except for greengrass because greengrass has no specialization.rn im at cyan with 30% of all sleep styles studied.the part im undecided on is should i go to the highest area i can and then work down? i could be redpilled into going to taupe this next week but i really don't know how i want to go about this
>>54498067Can you use this to time skip for a shitload more resources and missed meals?
>>54498238I might do Cyan again, despite it just being my third week coming up. I want a really good Totodile/Croconaw.
Posting my researcher ID if anyone has any space left.8557-1418-5733
>>54496508I have been playing for 5 weeks and I have a shiny ratata and a shiny eevee.
I kinda wish everywhere but the first area didn’t have fixed berries. I like not knowing what my team is gonna be each week, but I’ve been at the beach two weeks now and it’s just the exact same game plan.
I think there should have been a clearer path for progression between islands, like a single berry type thats shared between cyan -> taupe and then another one that's taupe -> snowotherwise its just build up a team for cyan and then go back to greengrass to build one for taupe etc etc. that doesnt feel correct
>>54499273my plan is beach -> get spheals -> snowdrop -> get cubones -> taupe
Happy Monday
>>54498238>What's yalls plans for the new week?Nothing much, I'm trying to get more lvl 25 pokemon. >What rank are you going for?I reached Masters 4 this week on Cyan Beach. However my aim is not for the final day, but to reach a high enough score a day before the full moon.

Next up is Gastly and fourth if any are on the list for Taupe, then I'll capture those.>What island will you be on? Cyan Beach, I want to reach Masters 20 on this island before moving.
>>54498238>What's yalls plans for the new week?I was on Greengrass this week so I'm gonna head to Cyan for a chance to get Mime and hopefully Chikorita too since I still haven't even seen one.>What rank are you going for?I was so close to Master 1 last time and missed out on the incense so I want to at least get that which should be easier with my stronger team now.>What are you hoping to catch?Chikorita is my main desire, but a good Totodile, Igglybuff, and Eevee would be nice too.>What island will you be on?The Beach.

What's so good about Mime Family? I got a Jr. this morning, but it didn't seem very good.
>>54499814It's not that good really, it's just that Psychic berries are pretty hard to secure right now, so you've gotta take what you get.
>>54499840Ah, okay. Guess it's good to have one for when I might need it, then.
>>54499814Mr. Mime is actually decently fast, plus it's an ingredient mon that can get potatoes and leeks.
>>54499949Unfortunately, mine probably isn't very good skill-wise

I still have 7 free spots. I'm pretty active, I may miss a sleep or lunch. Will put in manually if I do miss a sleep though.
>>54500729>have 4 Pokemon with Sleep EXP bonusThe only thing bad about this is that it means my ingredient sluts don't get ANY sleep
>>54501129Why not alternate? Or are you just trying to power level them one at a time?
>>54501129I don't understand this. Is this a good thing?
>>54501140at the moment i just want my shiny Gastly to become a Haunter since I'll be getting link cables soonThen I'll probably just go back to just using the same team day and night.I know it's a slow burner game but just getting Pokémon in to their 20s with 500-700 exp a week is agony
>>54501196It means your sleep exp bonus is 1.52, which with a double exp incense is 2.52 and that's an instant 252 exp with perfect sleepThe downside being having 4-5 different Pokémon recovering energy each time, leaving the other team drainedAlso the initial reply was a mistake

I've only been to Cyan Beach once before, and had Salads once as well. Today I got both for the second time in 9 weeks.I'm starting to realize why salads get such a bad rep... The only usable ingredient my Cyan team provides is Cocoa on Slowpoke and Psyduck, and whatever my Butterfree can procure. Am I actually fucked?
>>54502066>"Am I actually fucked?">running a slowpoke and psyduckYeah, pretty much. At worst, you should always be able to make the apple recipe with your starter Pikachu.
>>54502066Salads were my slowest week as well on Cyan, mainly due to having no proper Slowpoke/king and not having any of the lvl 30-only ingredients available. I eventually gave up and went for the Ingredients proc, which went faster than Slowpokes Cacoa farm and farmed for the lower level dishes.
>>54502066how are you 9 weeks on cyan without a squirtle or totadile??
>>54502156I have one of each but they are both cursed with borderline unusable stats, else I'd be more than happy to use them
Almost midnight and my fellas are still energetic. Good Sylveon
>Bluk, Rawst, Pecha week>Sweets week>Only Rawst berry expert is Spheal, who is slow as hell and doesn't evolve till lvl 24>Gastly is fast, but Bluk berries don't make up for the fact he's an ingredient expert whose first ingredient, firey herb, goes in 0 (Zero) Sweet dishes>Pecha has no berry experts or good ingredient Mons. Have a good Wiggly and Sylveon, but they can't support a trash team.Sleeping with my Eevees this week, I guess.
I haven't used my starter Pikachu after the first few weeks and never really went back to review its stats. Now that I look at it it's not too bad, even without berryfinding, it has no detrimental stats that would interfere with its strengths. I was going to wait for a good Pichu but I'm tempted to evolve this already...
>>54502614my starter chu was nuts, he's lvl32 now
exactly what i wanted, a fourth week of curry
Why is it sometimes blue
>master 3 on beach>decide to try taupe hollow for the first time>barely basic 3 after 2 mealsi don't feel so good bros
>>54503361did you build up your fire ground electric team?
>>54503389I put a cubone(10) and charmeleon(19) on a team with butterfree/wiggly/croconaw
>>54503443so... no?
>>54503361>go to taupe for the first time>it's salads>for the 4th week in a rowI don't care anymore, I'm sick of looking at grass and I need just one more sleep style to unlock the snow area. Charmeleon can't reach level 30 soon enough, I'm so sick of having to drag Larvitar along for the gingers. My Butterfree is starting to fall off, though wiggly keeps getting better and better.
>>54503512>wigglyFor the energy? Do we have calcs for what it even does?Also day 2 of no ability activations. Idk what is going on with my Pokemon. I evolved eevee too vaporeon 2 days ago and it didn't activate once. The only activation was my skill trigger s wartortle with a skill chance boosting nature, and only once.
Well, I got a Croconaw on the last night there, but I think it sucks. At least compared to the totodile I already had.
>Snorlax wants Persim berries this weekrattata bros... it's time
I can use two sub skill seeds on this I guess. Worth using? I’m considering Glaceon or Sylveon
>wake up>see two half-filled mons>feed one>the other one is now emptyI think I just confirmed that pokemon are both particles and waves at the same time
>>54504519Are you intending to get it to 100? Otherwise why would you use this one?
>>54504653Skill Trigger with a Skill nature on a Skill pokemon seems good
>>54503898>For the energy? Do we have calcs for what it even does?Wiggly gives energy to everyone, and if it has main skill chance + and skill triggers it pops off keeping your pokemon's energy in the green as long as possible which means your pokemon gather even faster. I've been using one too and its pretty insane. staying in the green until bedtime (potentially) is just nuts
>>54504519yeah glaceon is fine if you want to use that one. how often do you really need that ability to proc anyway on any given day
>Sleeping every night, consistently getting S weeks when work cooperates>Haven't left greengrass, still only barely making master 1>Too autistic to learn meta or use second sleepShould I get good, or just accept defeat and move to beach?
>>54504934whats your team like? maybe we can help
>>54504519i wouldn't want double ingredient finder subskills on a berry finding s skillmon
>>54504955Last week's team, had oran, chesto and drinks
>>54504746>main skill chance + and skill triggers it pops offWhy is my Wartortle not getting me anything? It's been out for 2 days and hasn't gotten a single activation.
>>54505096apparently some main skills have higher activation %, also they're connected to helping speed, so if people have the good camp ticket they're going to get more activations than f2p
>Starting my third week, went back to greengrass>Literally none of my pokemon provide the berries he wants.Fuck's sake, I really need to expand my roster
>>54505010yeah that's what I would have done, that team. I don't see why you didn't hit masters w/it yet. What about the team you're using for this week? or is it the same one? have you tried using the strength/team calculator yet?
>>54505096if you can use a subskill seed on that wart i bet it'll happen more often.
How do we know when that full moon week or whatever is?
Spent a week in Taupe and feel like I got nothing out of it. Granted I don't have a team set up for it, but trying to dredge through Greengrass for a full team would have taken even longer. I only picked up 4 pokemon in the week and only one of them is even decent. I was planning on getting enough styles to unlock my next pot upgrade, but still made it out 1 shy.Back to the beach I guess.
>>54505010That's just too many ingredient pokemon. I assume you were basically overflowing with ingredients, so even a neutral berry farmer would have gotten you more points overall.
>>54505524Last time it started the day before the full moon on half (1.5x) powerI think, keep a check when the next full moon starts. If it was like the previous time, we should see a News item for Good Sleep Day this week.
So does helping bonus actually not do anything and I'm just wasting a slot on my team?I've had a jolteon with helping bonus on lvl 10 for the past few weeks and have been passing other mons for it just for that.Also almost perfect diglett.
>>54505524Next full moon is September 29
>>54506148that is a sexy diglett
>>54506308Stop sexualizing pokemon>Icetails portrait image.jpg
>friendship level 4 only gives 2 ingredients ticketsthe reward for lvl 5 will be better right? r-right?
Holy shit im glad its the new week finally, I ended up at ultra 1 with an F grade for the week
>>54506527How are you getting F grade? I haven’t gotten below A since the game dropped.
>>54506527Ha, I got an E.
>>54506543How are you getting A? My sleep is done consistently at the same time, similar lengths, changing just depending on work or wfh and longer sleeps for the weekend, and I'm only getting a B every week since I started.
>>54506893The keyword is literally "consistency." Sleep the same every single day
