Me too. I can't even play right now, it's so unfair.

PTC was a mistake. It's garbage, nothing but trash.

I'm suffering too.

Anyone have a chance to test the Eevee name thing? Apparently naming your eevee Sparky, Rainer, or Pyro will control the evolution. Or so says a reddit thread.

 

[Lucumo]

Now I dont feel so bad for putting a cp176 in for the daily reward.

:/ I wanted to place one of my good ones there (the spot was open not too long ago) instead of someone just dumping his worst.

nope you even get a pop up to tell you so when you put him in

It's not mine, just some loser Pokemon from a guy who chose the wrong team.

I would try it but I don't have enough candy.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Oh man so that Clefairy really was like 20 feet away... shit. Didn't encounter the "all pokemon always 3 steps away" glitch until today.



Sort by recent?

Nope. Nothing. Game fucking glitched and I lost an egg. My patience is wearing thin.

It seems to be getting great success.

well that's a crazy ass easter egg. Need one Eevee and I'll test it.

...

Maybe I could take a break...

Amazing

i also learned from that thread that vaporeon is the most desirable because of hp and cp but I am still going to get jolteon.

If true, Vape is still the best overall right?

 

[DeployThatPizza]

Yes. Vaporeon has the most CP and HP of the three.

Can't log in, are the servers down again?

Found a server status site: http://cmmcd.com/PokemonGo/

"Offline! (or very unstable)"

is it possible to change the name back tho

 

[Rhomega Beta]

Caught a Flareon

Also have an official gathering at our local park on Sunday. There's about a dozen Pokestops and they'll all be lured for 2 hours.

 

[DeadlyParasite]

Still no news about a Canadian release huh?

 

[Unbounded]

So I'm looking into getting a new phone for this. (Mostly since I'm becoming annoyed with straight talk, but ANYWAYS...)

What's a decent phone I can pick up for this? It doesn't need to be overly powerful or anything. Just keep in mind I'll be coming from a galaxy S3.

 

[N30RYU]

the game is broken as hell... freezing pokeballs... error messages... dissappearing pokemons... pokemons always showing 3 footprints..

 

[Elfstruck]

Yes you can change it back after evolve.

Nearby gym had three Magikarp.. was pretty funny.

 

[Gandalf]

Can't connect at the moment... Going into central London soon, hope it's sorted by then. Want to hatch those eggs!

 

[kaioshade]

And because its Pokemon, its going to get a complete pass.

Yup. I'm getting close to the limit of what I can handle. Yesterday I popped my last lucky egg because I've been saving several Pokemon to evolve.. Servers went down and couldn't log on or evolve anything for the full half hour.

Best time to do that would be during late evening or early morning. No server maintenance (usually) and not too many people using the servers.

 

[Daffy Duck]

Got a gym just down the road from my house, I suggested to my girlfriend we move house just down the road, she told me to get lost.

 

[BeamImpact]

game is lagging like crazy for me, running a pokemon club account
anyone else having this?
how is it running for you google account users?

on top of that how the hell didn't they add a run in background mode without the screen on is beyond crazy.

This and better servers is all I want

Haven't been able to log in for an hour now

There is, in settings.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

That Eevee trick is crazy. Wish I knew about it about 120 Eevees ago!

 

[Vanillalite]

Ditto

 

[Majukun]

how exactly the incense (at least I think it is an incense) works? used one for the first time and didn't experience any upgrade in pokemon encounters, either in quantity nor quality

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

There is, in settings.

No there isn't. Battery Saver isn't that, it just dims the screen when your phone is in your pocket. Doesn't really save the battery and it can cause the game to lock up.

 

[Birathen]

There is, in settings.

What? How? I ran 10km today with the god damn phone in my hand so I could check the screen hadnt turned off. GOTTA HATCH ALL EGGS!

 

[Deleted member 231381]

IMO, if you're an urban area, it's not really noticeable. Just generates a Pokemon immediately by you once every 5 minutes for about half an hour. Only seems that good for rural folks like myself.

 

[Korezo]

Held a gym for like 6 hours and didnt receive anything, how do I earn the coins?

 

[PodcastFips]

You mean like every day? Probably, yeah.

 

[Daffy Duck]

Settings battery saver.

 

[Oersted]

There are around 20 people around a church, with people constantly stopping by to play.


Insanity

 

[mrklaw]

Tried to buy some coins for my daughter so she could get some pokeballs (she managed to waste about 50 somehow), but the game froze and now the store won't even come back up. I can't see any restore purchases option in the game either.

 

[Drencrom]

I know, I shouldn't ask at this point really...

Niantic pls

contact the google of the support

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

couldn't find any definitive answer on same-type attack bonus (and I had to look up for myself what it was D

appreciate you saying so dude.

There is more stuff I would've put in there now, it's a bit basic as the community was still figuring things out, but it's already super long.

I'd like to see your faq, could you link me?

 

[Birathen]

Settings battery saver.

Does it need to be checked or unchecked coz for unchecked means it wont register distance atleast, nor vibrate when im seeing a Pokémon with the screen off.

Edit: im on a OnePlus 3 phone, if it makes any difference.

 

[MajorMane]

You have to go to the shop and click in the top right corner. You can do this once ever 21 hours.

I'd like to see your faq, could you link me?

Check the OP. There's links to both parts of Hawkian's wonderful FAQs.

 

[panthapanda]

Halfway to my Gyarados and someone has it up on a gym lol

 

[TheExodu5]

That Eevee trick is crazy. Wish I knew about it about 120 Eevees ago!

What trick?

 

[Neiteio]

What's the trick for getting specific Eevee evolutions? The OP is down in that reddit thread.

Also, the feeling when you remember that Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon are not available yet:

Still no news about a Canadian release huh?

I love that everyone is using this gif for countries without GO now, lol

 

[stargateheaven]

Battery save just means the screen goes dark if you tilt the phone down

 

[Mr-Joker]

So I currently looking for a new phone and I have a quick question, will Pokémon Go work on phones that have 1.5 ram?

 

[OverturePT]

Held a gym for like 6 hours and didnt receive anything, how do I earn the coins?

Go to the store, and in the upper right corner there should be a shield like icon with a number in it. Press it.

If you get other gyms in the meantime you have to wait until 21h passes since you got the reward while holding the gym to earn the coins.

 

[Waylon Drums]

This was much more fun before every single Pokemon would break out of Pokeballs.
