why does it keep crashing on ios
someone tell me if its worth downloading or if its just going to be a short lived fad like miitomo
It's shit but okay if you want mewtwo on the new pokemon games
Otherwise don't download. It like crashes when i catch pokemon in my lap because ithe pokeball falls into nowhere
it workds ok for me. i got Squirtle and a Venonat
I got Butterfree, jigglypuff, sparrow, rattata, and squirtle
I see koffing, weedle, parasect, venonat, and pidgey around here too
There is a pokespot but idk why they chose that particular location. No thx.
my pokespot was a sidewalk square that had the name M Hanson on it. It was near the Abandoned Wendy's
Mmm bop
I see a poliwag but I don't want to go to a dangerous neighbourhood at night

Well we get reverse white fright here. All the white people move into the city and the poorer people move into the bedroom community because it's cheap
like one time a sedan that managed to fit nine people stopped in front of our house and they were screaming "HE'S GOT A GUN" and I thought it was scary at the time
I think I would just be annoyed if it happened now tbh
just think some dude will point the barrel of a gun at you with murderous intent and you'll be able to send out your rattata
All I have is a squirtle and none of these things are coming right to me so...

Anyone know how they identify locations? I'm pretty amazed by all the landmarks.
that's what i wondered too lol
they picked my snj middle school as a poke gym as a historic landmark, cos it is
i should try this out in manhattan
I bet they've probably just designated certain types of buildings as things

That feeling when a ghastly shows up, throw a pokeball, it hits and closes around it, but then nothing happens after that. No shaking no red light flashing. Wait a few minutes, it stays like that. Close out the app, start it back up, and thankfully it got caught.

>Teen Playing “Pokemon Go” Stabbed And Mugged For His iPhone; In Bad Neighborhood
https://archive.is/DOYzB
CHICAGO " 17 Year-old Marcus Jackson was stabbed and mugged for his iPhone after allegedly playing “Pokemon Go” a new app released by the franchise on July 6.
Police say Jackson was just walking around playing “Pokemon Go” and didn’t realize he had stepped into what is know as a bad neighborhood. A local store owner said he saw Marcus Jackson was stabbed and his belongings stolen right after recording the incident he immediately called the Chicago police department.
The store owner said “This kid was just looking at his phone I don’t think he had any idea where he was at or that he was being stabbed” Marcus Jackson is in stable condition and we’re told he will recover his main concern at this moment is getting his iPhone back.

So. Many. Goddamn. People. Are playing this game and it's GREAT.
I came home from Boston for the weekend, and decided to take a walk and catch some Pokemon. Literally the first person I see on the street is playing it. Most of the people I saw were playing it. There's a Pokestop right by my house that someone kept sticking lures on so I ran into a group of people there and we chatted for a bit.
It's honestly a little too real sometimes but it's cool

The blue cubes are locations that will give you like items or pokemon eggs or whatever. Also they'll have like some unique pokemans sometimes

Yeah, even in the suburbs, there's nothing. I can't imagine what a rural area would be like.
Sitting on a bus in Albany this morning, ready to go back to Boston. I shoot an unclaimed gym (which I honestly thought I'd never see) just outside the bus station, and thus just outside my field of influence. I watch as it gets taken over, luckily by a teammate though, but still. I'm still not in any gyms.
To add insult to injury, as the bus is pulling away I find a Cubone, who immediately disappears. God. Dammit.
everyone around me is playing this too. all my coworkers at petsmart are talking about it, and trying to organize a pokemon hunt together. one of them said he caught an electabuzz in an auto shop the other day.
but yeah this game is great, i'm having fun with it. luckily there are three pokestops right near where i work, and one near where i live.
Between this and LL, kaz will never play a console game again.
Yes.
Someone put a pokemon lure on the stop outside the dorms so I just caught a Cubone at my desk

Fenway Stadium is a gym, and it looks like one that I could actually take over.
I feel like I should claim it in the name of New York.

Right but if someone on another team is kicking out Uber pokemon then only his team can benefit and you can't get those items making you fall further behind
It's pretty much Ingress all over again: better get in the game early or you will never be able to make any progress at all. There should be 1 hit ko moves that have a low chance of working to allow for some variability
If there is a level cap on pokemon maybe it is okay because eventually you'd be able to catch up but I don't know that there is?
There isn't but if you rank up by catching lots of pokes, you will be able to catch stronger Pokemon in the wild
well i went for a walk in dc with this shit for the first time and the game soft locked even after multiple restarts

is the bigger problem, which is even people who have the best pokemens will dominate regardless, paid or unpaid but grinded out like a mofo. like i only have been casually playing this shit and am only level 5 and i dont think there's really any gyms left in the area that i can capture cuz my pokemon are shit lol and by the time i get gud there will be better mons
You get trainer exp from catching Pokemon so just catch any that you see and like send the ones you don't want back to the professor for more candy
With a higher trainer level, you start to see stronger Pokemon as well in the wild
so basically go to pokespots, hope someone drops a lure, rinse and repeat
It's kind of sad that the overarching message of pokemon: the power of friendship with your pokemon doesn't work at all in this game.
Like the first couple days it was like aw, Ponyta, I will love you forever! But half a week later it's let's delete Ponyta for a piece of candy because we found a better one anyway

why aren't you on ios9
do you have lte disabled because lte is a terrible standard for stable connections
like half my games (mostly my emulators) wont work on ios9. and i hate change, u know this. new emojis scare me. also when i was on a 5s, upgrading to 8 from 7 made my phone a slow unusuable mess, so i'm afraid of that happening again tbh.
and no i use lte despite its shittiness and unreliability because my phone basically doesn't function on 4g around here, i'm lucky if it will send a text let alone connect to da damn nets
Do you get at least 3G? It only requires that much data
i mean yea but its even slower than slow poke 4g
also half these problems are occurring when connected to my offices 5 ghz wifi connection too lol
are you In airplane mode when that happens? Do you have VoLTE off?
no and yes
does pogemon really require this much troubleshooting, cuz i was fine with snapchat filters, i just wanted to be cool man :(
Well the iphone uses assisted gps which requires your data connection to be stable
If you can't have a stable connection, it ends up not working because it is confused about where you are so it sends a lot of data the client doesn't know what to do with
I guarantee if you disable lte, it will load
Iphones have the shittiest lte antennas in both form and function
nice, well im about to bike home for an hour but if i go into town tonight i might try it fam I'LL REPORT BACK

well i went for a walk in dc with this shit for the first time and the game soft locked even after multiple restarts
like my dude will walk around and pokemen will pop up but my touch screen didnt respond to being poked whatsoever so i accomplished nothing lol
I haven't been playing it that much but that's happened a couple times to me, but in my case restarting it fixed it for me.

I was gonna say because I don't have that much trouble on android on mobile speeds throttled down to 2g
The thing about gyms is that you can actually take over a gym with an underleveled team, especially if there aren't that many pokemon in the gym. Then if a high-leveled player on your team stays the gym leader, you can piggyback off of them.
Gyms that are in constant contention are easier to get into, but harder to stay in. Just a thought.

OH SHIT tomorrow is Prime day too :O
everyone at both my jobs is playing it. today at petsmart, me, another employee i talk to a lot, and one of our managers were all playing it on the clock, discussing in which nearby lots certain pokemon were. one of them even covered for me for a moment so i could go outside and catch a seel he saw lmao.
today's new catches were seel, growlithe, gastly, caterpie, raticate, and vulpix. saw a pidgeot but it disappeared entirely mere seconds after it showed up on screen.
I caught a sandshrew w/e
well i turned LTE off and it seemed to be working nicely and then the game soft locked as i was walking back from 711 lol dammit
Yeah, the regional servers were down
yeah i havent been able to connect since so that makes sense lol
another pokemon go lunch break walk, another instance of pokemon go softlocking after i take about 20 steps.
ugh.
using 4G not LTE, i feel like it must be OS related? i dunno, i'm just kind of tired of trying to play this shit at this point lol i should have hit like 15 pokestops a second ago and i didn't get SHIT
Did you update the app
yeah fam :(
also by instance i mean multiple instances or completely closing out the app and reopening it, it happened every time lol
Idk it's working better for me. I caught weedle before my colonoscopy!!!
but the pokespot was out of the way. :( I want to take an uber and just drive around to pokespots lol
maybe its because there's too much shit/ too many people playing?? idk like it works fine at home but im sure im like the only one in my apartment complex playing and there's no pokestops for like a mile
idk i just wanna catch a dang butterfree
They updated servers to fix a glitch with gyms that rendered them unbeatable. So that might be why there was any sort of extended downtime recently.
okay so how do the CP arches/curves work

The end of the curve is the highest you can level your pokemon at your current trainer level. When you evolve your pokemon, it stays at the same point on the arc, but the cap rises

Quote from: Sir Popsicle the Sesquipedalian on July 12, 2016, 03:49:34 PM

does the cap vary only by level? will two pidgeys have the same cap if you catch each at the same level?
Yeah, and the cap will keep rising as you gain levels. It doesn't matter what level you're at when you catch a pokemon, or what CP it's at.
i'm like 98% pretty sure

apparently some people are guessing ipv6 doesn't work well with pokemon go which would make sense since it also didn't work on your ipv6 wifi
i have at&t
i think i may have figured out the problem??? i think it's just the power saver thing is borked, and when it 'soft locks' it just doesn't realize fully that i would like to once again play pogemon since everything happens (pokemon pop up, pokestops twirl, yadda yadda), just nothing happens when i tap things on my screen.
either that or Downtown DC is just shit for playing this game. i didnt really have any problems playing it last night in old town alexandria (outside of the usual post-pokemon catch softlock), but i also didn't put my phone in the downward position pretty much the whole time since it was nothing but pokemoners outside and i didnt feel like a total dweeb walking around very obviously playing pokemon like i do here in DC

it lets you auto-catch pokemon you've already caught before
it doesn't let you hit up pokespots though pffffft
but to normies you can just look like you are playing candy crush anyhow since all you need to do is swipe
We had a Planners meeting today and somehow Pokemon Go came up. One of the middle aged ladies showed it off on her phone because her kids play it. Another middle aged woman saw an "Ah-brah" (Abra) and caught it.
They were all very excited. Thankfully they talked to the other young male planner about it and not me so I don't have to be in charge of explaining how it works
if you are a planner, make yourself useful and survey the area for any pokespots or gyms 300 feet from a school
we need to keep our children safe
make sure your local paper writes an article about any pokestops that happen to be graves or other hallowed historical monuments as well

there are a surprising amount of dratini around here.
Also, I there's this reflecting pool near Berklee's campus that has like a dozen pokestops around it, and there are constantly people there, dropping lures everywhere, and just dozens of people in the area catching stuff. It's great.
pokemon go fuck yourself
That feeling when you see an active lure module and you wonder if somebody is getting murdered

I couldn't catch a pidgeot at level 4 ;-;
But I did catch a staryu and psyduck :)
I got two eggs too
I also found a triangulation of three pokespots that managed to refresh themselves each time I got to the next one but it was at a local bank. :|
That lady's suspicions are well founded to be quite honest. I turned off the Pokemon Go music and have a privacy screen on my phone for that reason.

it's easy to tell what you're doing anyway
Playing in a city is nice because there's a wealth of pokestops, and there's one spot in particular with about a dozen and there are always a bunch of lures down there.
However, it's impossible to stay in a gym for more than a few hours no matter how strong your Pokemon are. I've never stayed in one for more than a few minutes.
I turn AR off and just act like I'm playing Candy Crush.
Yeah I turned the AR off after the first like 6 pokemon i caught lol.
Same. It saves battery and it's easier to catch stuff.
I never used ar because it kept telling me it couldn't detect my phone's orientation. And the Pokemon never showed up.

She needs to provide an incentive for the boyfriend to come with her...
Maybe she doesn't want to let the boyfriend know that there were people creeping on her. it might make him more standoffish?

but if she wanted him to play bodyguard he didn't have to be playing the game too.
And people do go on walks with each other. Or they used to.
Maybe she wants to trade or battle with her bf???? You know, have outings together so he knows what the game is for himself and not some cockamamie she can came up lest she gets accused of cheating with a dweeb or Trumpet?
But yeah, I would think he would have the decency to walk with her and she shouldn't have to ask him, but yeah young people
She should just put on earbuds if she doesn't want people to approach her as well.

even if only a small percentage of these ppl buy pokecoins it's probs still considerable

I'm more interested in its staying power. It seems like it will get boring fast if it's not updated frequently
T-Mobile is sponsoring Pokemon Go apparently? And there are rumors that all McDonald's locations may become pokespots?

And given what fallout shelter did, I don't doubt that this could do the same or better.
Though I think fallout shelter was more put together at launch.

thanks for the lecture felt
i think you mean disparate but even that isn't true
lol typos o_O
I think there is a legit argument Nintendo should just outsource development to third parties, like they've done with the Pokemon main series from the very beginning...
Nintendo's corporate culture just seems to be highly insular and opening it up could work in their favor as opposed to Sega's efforts at spinning off all their development teams as subsidiaries and its resulting decline...
Also with people going out and about with Pokemon Go, it's the resulting news stories that have driven the app's popularity. As opposed to an elaborate dress-up game...
I think my felt playset allows for more customization than a mii
I downloaded this. Played around with it a few times. Deleted it in 2 days.
