07.08.16 | I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience so far. I understand there will be issues for an APP game that the whole world is trying to get on at one time so I am not upset. It seems like a lot of stupid people are going to get hurt rather hit by a car or the one hitting somebody. Have a Pinsir and Weepingbell as my top two as well as a Pidgeotto... but Gyms are tough in my area! D: |

I wasn't hyped for it at all and downloaded it just to see what it was like but it's really cool, very well done and a good motivation to get outside and explore.

was not expecting that

07.09.16 | It works in Greece...Sucks that the closest pokestop and gym are 20 kilometers away though |

07.09.16 | So what does this game do? You can catch pokemon in real life locations and then what? |
InFlamesWeThrash666
07.09.16 | You can't do anything other than catching them,at least for now. They'll probably add battles later though (because every pokemon has combat points and special attacks) |

07.09.16 | Are only the original Pokemon available currently? How long is it gonna take to patch the new ones in? |

07.09.16 | you can level them up, evolve them, hatch eggs, and battle gyms (completely different how battles work normally)
theres more thn just catching them |

07.09.16 | I got it to work finally and got a Bulbasaur in my backyard ^_^ but i don't really used data so I prob won't be catching much. It's funny to see all the random places that ae gyms, though. There's this hotel/bar that was demolished and is a gym, as well as an old Mormon temple. |

emester
07.13.16 | After about a week of playing I think I gathered my thoughts on the app.
1. First and foremost, it's a Pokemon app, not a Pokemon game. If it were to be considered a game and the direction of where the franchise was heading, I would be heartbroken.
2. I went in keeping my expectations low and thankfully I made the wise decision there. I never expected to be amazed but I expected to be entertained. In the end, that is exactly what I got.
3. Seeing all these other people actually conversing about Pokemon without fear of stigmatization is honestly surreal and something I thought would never happen.
4. App's buggy af even after a huge update
5. Gym battles suck a fat one
6. But I honestly dont take much offense to the last two complaints, as the experience of the app has probably given me the greatest level of enjoyment on my phone practically ever. |

07.13.16 | ya gym battles are pretty lame but only cuz of how laggy/buggy they are. once they fix them, i think they should be decent. and once they enable battling other players, i think that's when the combat system will take off. |

07.13.16 | i just don't like the gym system that much but the actual combat itself is kind of fun. like, to take over a gym u have to sometimes beat it like 5-6 times in succession, and even then, like as ur walking away it is retaken by a diff team. idk it just seems like it could be better |

07.14.16 | flareon is the lamest evee evolution too, i see a trend here
that being said a lot of the fire starters are dope, i find the grass starters tend to be the lamest (with some exceptions of course) |
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | it seems the evees are the starter gym takers, they're everywhere and evolving them is so cheap on candy for being so common and boosts their CP a ton |
Cygnatti
07.14.16 | right now vaporeon and flareon (slightly weaker than vape) are generally considered among the best/strongest. jolteon is also v good but noticeably weaker than those two for some reason. |
theNateman
07.14.16 | Shit man I need me some drowzees
|
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | jolteon attacks faster and is easier to dodge with then his brothers, but I dont know how much that evens things out |
anarchistfish
07.14.16 | umbreon and espeon are the 2 of the coolest pokemon |
anarchistfish
07.14.16 | i am surrounded by drowzees |
Cygnatti
07.14.16 | agreed. |
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | yeah umbreon is the coolest evee evolution, but isnt he second gen? |
Futures
07.14.16 | yeah hopefully they add in second gen after a while |
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | hope so, though Id rather an update that fixes the bugs and freezing issues. I had a 257 haunter glitch out on me while it was in a pokeball )': |
Futures
07.14.16 | yeah i have had the freezing glitch quite a bit but never had any server issues surprisingly |
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | Ive been told signign in with google negates the server issue a lot. well worth the potential privacy breach imo lol |
Futures
07.14.16 | yeah i did that lol but what do they get access to? i don't keep anything on my google profile thing. i guess they get search history but who cares lol |
TheSpaceMan
07.14.16 | the app allows access to almost all the info on your google account for absolutely no reason. it doesnt use any of it but the problem is the app is so mainstream now its definitely a target for hacking, so its more of a third party privacy issue. so they've already confirmed they're changing the restrictions to make it tighter, maybe its even gone through |

07.14.16 | Poor logic how? If you're dumb enough to stray onto a busy road as a pedestrian you dont need this game to facilitate your dumbassetry |
ScuroFantasma
07.14.16 | Yeah I'm with that |
DrMaximus
07.15.16 | That's not true at all. People become so immersed in the game they lose all awareness of their actual surroundings. Without the game their not just gonna walk into traffic without realizing it unless they're beyond mentally ill |
Deathconscious
07.15.16 | so then texting and driving isnt a problem, because the people who suck at driving enough to get into accidents while texting and driving are going to get into accidents even if they dont text and drive anyways. |
Futures
07.15.16 | dude who even cares |
Cygnatti
07.15.16 | when/if people get into accidents bc of pokemon go...
it's both the person and the app's fault. not singularly one of them.
the person should be more attentive; the game always warns you to be aware of your surroundings; but even then, accidents will still happen. |
ScuroFantasma
07.15.16 | "so then texting and driving isnt a problem, because the people who suck at driving enough to get into accidents while texting and driving are going to get into accidents even if they dont text and drive anyways."
Nah I'd say it's that this game isn't going to suddenly make using your phone in dangerous situations an okay thing to do. So whether it's texting while driving or playing Pokemon go while driving, if you think either is acceptable you're a shitty person and that wouldn't have been changed because of the game. |
Deathconscious
07.15.16 | ^ agreed, but none of that pertains to the point i was making. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.15.16 | "when/if people get into accidents bc of pokemon go...

no its the persons fault for being a fucking retard tbh |
AlexKzillion
07.15.16 | My friends take this game very serious, they go as far as to drive 15-20 mph in their cars though my neighborhood while playing the game so they can hatch their eggs faster (20 mph is the speed limit where you won't gain progress on your eggs according to them) |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.15.16 | wow
|
Deathconscious
07.15.16 | i think you need new friends. |
Cygnatti
07.15.16 | It keeps saying gps signal not found :( |
zaruyache
07.15.16 | that's a pretty common thing to do. Not like young people aren't known to cruise around town anyway. |
DrMaximus
07.15.16 | Cruising at a breakneck speed of 20mph cool af |
ScuroFantasma
07.15.16 | @Adolf yeah I guess not really. What I was trying to say is that you can't blame texting or Pokemon go or anything else for people's poor decision making. They'll just trade one distraction for another but the problem remains the same; they choose to do it in the first place. Whether that's not looking while crossing crossing a street or not looking while driving. |

Storm In A Teacup
07.15.16 | I'm Valor too. For those who say I have too much free time I can easily explain how I am where I am (believe me there are thousands ahead of me). There's a shopping center two miles from my house with 12 Pokecenters and 2 gyms all on top of each other. The two furthest points are a 60 second run from each other. My weed dealer plays it and pays me to give him rides to the shopping center and o go hunt. I also leave Pokemon go on when I drive so I can hatch eggs super easy. Also Evee is the easiest to evolve just gotta be smart about shit. |
anarchistfish
07.15.16 | Just found a wild squirtel and it bugged |

Storm In A Teacup
07.15.16 | I can take it easy every other day and spend 1-2 hours playing the second day and still destroy these gyms. Mystic and Valor people work will against those dumb yellow bellies. |
Storm In A Teacup
07.15.16 | Also since I started I've only used 134mb mobile data. People who say the game eats data or battery lie or have shitty consumption rates. |

My lvl 15 friend said it depends on what move the Eevee has when you catch it. Can't remember which move is which evolution, but he has multiples of each evolution and it clearly shows that that is the case. Plus I don't think that they would ever make it so you could pick what your Eevee evolves into by giving it a certain nickname.
EDIT: I Got them
Body Slam = Jolteon
Swift = Vaporeon
Dig = Flareon

find somewhere where you can reach 2 or 3 stops. there's usually a bunch of people there with lures. pokémon up the wahzoo. the three footprint/nothing nearby bugs are entirely irrelevant.

my town is quite small so there isn't a load of stuff, five gyms and about thirty stops across the whole town. however whenever i go into the city (like twice a week) there's this great bar i go to with about five stops and two gyms within range so that's great, lots of people using lure modules too |

Feather
07.16.16 | MrAlexK your friend is wrong... the move idea was debunked within the first day of the games release. The nickname thing is real and works 100% of the time. Those names come from the TV show where the Eevee bros all evolve their eevees with those names. |

07.18.16 | @oltnabrick I understand the confusion now. The card is wrong, they didn't even have ghost type cards. the games have always had Ghastly as a Ghost/Poison.
@hal1ax I'm pretty passionate about my Pokemon |

07.18.16 | "u save up as many evolutions as u can. once u have a bunch rdy, u drop a lure module at a stop, pop a lucky egg, and bust all ur evo's in between lure module poke spawns. each evo with the egg will give u 1k exp (or 2k if it's one u don't have) plus spins on the pokestop will be 100 + catching bitches will be 200+"
just used my first lucky egg today, and realized afterwards I should've saved my evo's for that too, damn. still, I combined it with incense, and walked around in the area where there were a lot of lured pokestops too, so in ~40 minutes I jumped from lvl 9 to 11 just from catching the bastards, so it's good. |

gonna go kill myself now |
zaruyache
07.19.16 | lucky eggs give you x2 exp for 30 minutes when used
lures increase the amount of wild pokemon you encounter for 30 minutes (increased frequency if you move around)
You get exp when you spend the candy to evolve a pokemon
So: for power-leveling, you (1)use the lure and lucky egg at the same time, (2)evolve as many pokemon you can, and (3)catch everything that pops up. Then you (4)walk over to the nearest gym and fight there to get more exp.
That's what I gather. |
hal1ax
07.19.16 | Correct ^ |
Cygnatti
07.19.16 | got to 12 today :]

how do you get more pokeballs |
anarchistfish
07.19.16 | Pokestops. When you're nearby a disc will appear above it. Tap and then spin the disc, then wait for the servers to crash |

07.19.16 | I was too old when Pokemon became popular... so I'm just gonna go over here... and play Commander Keen... |
Cygnatti
07.20.16 | "I have no idea what a luck egg is"
a rare item that doubles the exp you get for 30 minutes |
ZippaThaRippa
07.20.16 | tcat, you are never, NEVER too old for Pokemon. Now is the time to start. |

07.20.16 | Actually never mind, start in like a month or two when they have these server issues worked out |

07.21.16 | Got to level 13 by the 12th but now I haven't done shit just sitting at level 14 with 4 level 1000 executor Vaporeon Vaporeon and Flameon then jolteon. Not too interested anymore unless I can get fire types soon |
AlexKzillion
07.21.16 | If I get an eevee from my 10km egg that's about to hatch I will be pissed. |

07.21.16 | daddy has a 1890cp vaporeon :D |
Avagantamos
07.21.16 | I haven't leveled up my pokes a lot, my highest is just over 600. don't want to use up all my stardust in case something more powerful comes along |
hal1ax
07.21.16 | dont boost shit until level 20+ or u will regret it. lvl 20 is the point where u start finding significantly higher cp p0kes |
LambsBread
07.22.16 | Does anyone else fear this game will be hard for casual gamers to enjoy? What's gonna happen when people get to level 100 and level 1 noobs have to try to battle them at the gyms? Does the game have a way of accounting for this? I really like this game but you simply don't have the time most kids do to play it when you get older. |
Asdfp277
07.22.16 | this game pokemon-WENT |
hal1ax
07.22.16 | ya the pvp aspect of the game kind of alienates more casual gamers, but that's how most games are i think. you should still be able to win some gym battles being low level though. i see lots of lower guys up in the gyms around where i live. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
07.22.16 | even if your wordplay wasnt so shitty it still wouldnt be true. |
bentheREDfan
07.22.16 | Very enjoyable until I ran out of Pokeballs and I live nowhere near a Pokeshop. Which sucks |

07.22.16 | buy some poke coins and make Nintendos stock rise please |
Asdfp277
07.22.16 | nintendo rules |
hal1ax
07.22.16 | and apparently they are making leveling 25+ extremely difficult so that might slightly curb any sort of enormous disparity between casual gamers and the fiends. i guess lvl 39-40 is 5 million exp haha. |
DirEnRefused
07.22.16 | downloaded the game yesterday and got a dratini, stoked af |
DirEnRefused
07.22.16 | also the game has a lot of issues but i don't think they'll bother me because i'm not approaching it particularly seriously
that said bulk transferring could be so much easier if you could just group pick and transfer didn't require you to scroll the fkin' page |
LambsBread
07.22.16 | yep nintendo is the shit |
Feather
07.22.16 | Yeah, I'm really wishing I had just never spent any of my stardust, such a waste in the beginning of the game! I won't be using anymore for quite awhile |
TVC15
07.22.16 | "dont boost shit until level 20+ or u will regret it. lvl 20 is the point where u start finding significantly higher cp p0kes" fucking hell wish I knew this sooner |
betray
07.22.16 | i think levels 20+ need to instance into a different world than lower level players
couldnt imagine just starting out today and looking at all the gyms around me with exclusively 1500+ CP pokemon |
betray
07.22.16 | 1500 at the lowest |
Cygnatti
07.22.16 | they're gonna update the gym system later on.
not confirmed, but the info i saw seemed to say that multiple trainers will compete to be the "head" of the gym like a gym leader, whom will have the strongest pokemon (plural), with the others to support them (you have to fight them before the gym leader) - a bit like how pokemon gyms are set up in the game. |
anarchistfish
07.22.16 | I had an eevee appear on my radar once but that's it :/ so sick of fucking drowzees |

hal1ax
07.22.16 | for anyone evolving Eevee, i have a trick for yuh. usually the evo is randomized between jolteon / flareon / vaporeon, but there is a way to force the evolution of your choice. before you evolve your eevee, nickname it :
Sparky - for jolteon
Rainer - for vaporeon
Pyro - for flareon
my friends and i have tested it out and it works. |
Sinternet
07.22.16 | yeah that trick is legit, got my lovely vaporeon |
hal1ax
07.22.16 | nice. vapo is the most effective of the 3 around where i live because she hard counters arcanine and there is a 1500+ arc in literally every gym here |
Avagantamos
07.23.16 | I let my first (and only so far) eevee evolve on it's own and I got a vaporeon. also, are pokemon that had higher stats in the original games more powerful in GO? or is it based purely on CP? |
Futures
07.23.16 | https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/4se870/pokemon_cp_tier_list/
seems like the only difference is cp per boost |
Avagantamos
07.23.16 | surprised to see onix so low on that list |
Futures
07.23.16 | nah he always sucked in the original games too. hopefully they add second gen tho and he can evolve into steelix that would be tight |
Avagantamos
07.23.16 | yea and we can get crobat too. idk I never really used onix in the games, but it didn't seem like that bad of a pokemon |
hal1ax
07.23.16 | yaa im pumped for 2nd gen p0kes to come out. i heard they should be implemented by no later than december 2016 |

09.22.16 | "yeah cuz they ruined the game"
by taking out the broken footstep function that never worked anyways? |

09.22.16 | yeah i never understood people bitching about that. it never worked in the first place |
ArsMoriendi
09.22.16 | I started again because it's thriving decently on my college campus. It's gotten a bit more boring though |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
09.22.16 | "yeah i never understood people bitching about that. it never worked in the first place"
like people were straight up boycotting the game over a hypothetical function basically get a grip |
hal1ax
09.22.16 | The fact that it still doesn't work is just bullshit though. Like tracking should be an integral part of that game. Niantic just blew it. |
Futures
09.22.16 | nobody really cares anymore man |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | the footstep function worked perfectly for me every single time never lost track of any pokemon I searched for...always found them when the footsteps were around. only way I lost a pokemon was running out of balls or not having strong enough balls |
hal1ax
09.23.16 | I realize that. Just saying it could've been a good game. |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | but yeah idgaf about pokemon go anymore they could bring back the original and that's the only way I'd try it but i'm still ready to move on from that |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | yeah it could've agreed and at first it was. then they ruined it |
Futures
09.23.16 | no it never worked dude lol |
hal1ax
09.23.16 | Ya tracking never worked for me. Not even in the beginning. |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | that sucks for you guys :-{ I would have never put any time into the game if the footsteps didn't work for me. I caught about 100 pokemon using the footsteps |
ScuroFantasma
09.23.16 | I stopped months ago, just kinda lost its 'new thing' appeal and I wasn't that into it anyway. It's a shame a bit though, it was really fun in the beginning, I might revisit it and see how it is now though. |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | I feel bad for this shopping center in my town. It was a slow business center but the only corporation in the whole center is the best most unique Mazzios building ever with about 30 other businesses that are all local restaurants tailors pottery antiques and so on. Well the center had 12 pokecenters and 2 gyms. So from mid day to 11pm the whole center looked like a state fair. Businesses were alternating offering discounts to people based on what gym they were in, these businesses took out ads, hired more workers, and then the centeres and gyms were taken away and the footsteps followed right after so it really fucked with the lives of the owners of those small businesses. Planning a resurgence in their area and then one day it just ends. I feel awful for those people |

09.23.16 | fuck this shit game i hate going out with people just for them to be like "safe man let's hit some pokestops and stare at our phones for like 3 hours" adn just sit there bored as a limp dick while everyone's buzzing their tits off over the amount of pokemon their getting by sitting on their asses with a lure |

09.23.16 | alright just calm down |
Storm In A Teacup
09.23.16 | futures read it |
ScuroFantasma
09.23.16 | That's very interesting Storm. In my opinion though basing a business resurgence around a craze is a bit short sighted though, they should've just been happy with the spike in customers and left it at that. |
NorthBorder
09.23.16 | we have a restaurant in our town right next to a pokestop that just put up a little sign saying "trainers welcome here" or some shit and left it at that. think investing any further in a trend that was so obviously going to die out sooner rather than later is kinda just bad management
no offence to the local pottery owners etc |
