Nope, it has been deleted. I am never going back to this game. Unless they actually offer a one time fee to permanently remove the heart limit.
I was also getting annoyed by the lack of gen 6 Pokémon in the game, only 13 are in the game and none of them are the Kalos starters.
Did you also delete the save file or just the game?
If you haven't deleted the save file it means you'll be back. YOU'LL BE BACK.
Ugh, these later EX stages are getting to me. Still have to unlock the last two, but I still need to catch Blaziken, Heatran, and Xerneas. Blaziken I just can't beat, Heatran seems nasty as well but maybe the most doable of the three, and freaking Xerneas... I beat it like once or twice, but I just wasted 5 hearts and couldn't beat the dumb thing once, and even if I squeak by it's 1% catch rate! Bleh.
I banished everything to the distortion world, I will not be returning period.
Shame really I was enjoying the game but I just couldn't deal with the heart system which made me flip flop on the game from loving it to hating it.
It had to go for the stake of my mind.
Went back for Heatran and he actually caught at 13%. So that's something at least!
Really charming game, I love the sound effects, reminds me a bit of those bubbles in Little Big Planet. Very relaxing music as well.
I actually don't mind only being able to play this for a few rounds at a time, I honestly wouldn't play it much more even if I could. It's perfect for multiple short sessions a day.
I don't really take the game serious, but as some lighthearted puzzle fun for free, I'm not complaining at all.
I'm still very glad the Mario Puzzle Dragon game is a full retail release, it would have been such a bummer if they turned that one into F2P.

Shows their data and gives you a heart if you've passed them 3 or more times
StreetPass Thread is in the same place it always was, just hasn't been bumped in a few days. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=425715
You also get a heart for 1 pass, 5 passes, 10 passes, and then every tenth pass after that.

Plus two hearts can be obtained for your first StreetPass "in a while". Not sure on specifics, by my two were a week apart.
Don't blame you, I foolishly carried on and got to Ivysaur. There was no way I could catch him without burning up my hearts limit.

So I just realized why Mega Glalie is such a fucking money grab - they game replaces one of your monsters on your team with a ridiculously underpowered piece of garbage. Seriously. My 3 matches were doing 160 or so, and this monster (not the Snorunt he jams with) does 26 damage. :|
The funny thing is the catchability feels irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. Unless you're talking about the EX stages with their 1% base, the rest of the 'mon seem to be a crap shoot whether it's 7% or 97%. But as evidenced by so many posters in this topic, they're quite catchable. The game has been out just under two weeks and several people here have caught most of the Pokemon without spending any money.

I've had that happen numerous times. Repeated forms of Rotom.
The current Pokémon of the day event will rotate through the 5 Rotom forms until March 21st, they haven't yet announced what will come after that. It's so people have a few weeks to get them if they miss a day.
Caught all the main stage Pokemon finally. Still haven't spent any money on it, still don't plan to.
Hopefully it doesn't take too long for them to release more stages. And I hope those stages don't become even more difficult. I'd rather not have to fight a Gengar every level.
Now to do the EX stages... only been able to catch the first three so far, so I'm not really looking forward to it.

Does anyone have any tips for Gengar? I'm rocking a lvl 6 Sableye, Lvl 3 Zoroark, Lvl 4 Liepard, and Level 4 Absol. I win 2 out of every 3 attempts but usually only have 1-2 moves left. I've spent two days on this, probably 50 plays. I think I'm losing my mind.
It'll probably Kanto starter mega-stones + 2 more

This Mega Glalie stage is really starting to wear me down. It's so blatantly weighted against you that it's ridiculous. I get that the game wants you to spend your coins (because they don't do anything else BUT give you boosts), but that stage is just insane. I want to clear it sans boosts, but if it's not done by Wednesday, I'm going to give in I think.
You could try using a Mega that easily clears out hazards, even if it's not very effective like Audino. I tried this for a bunch of different Pokemon and it helped a lot, although you also have to have some luck when it comes to actually catching them.
Also you should definitely be using Haunter so that you get free hits when Gengar creates them.
So I finally bit and got this. I've never played any Candy Crush or anything similar. It really is a cheap and nasty business model and to me seems very un-Nintendo / The Pokemon Company. Visually its fairly barebones and soulless and theres no 3D at all. They should just put the damn thing on smart phones. As I've said before, I dont believe this type of game belongs on Nintendo handhelds.
yeah it's a bit much tbh
Wait until Mega Ganger 15 stages later.
Well just got to Mega Glalie and I can already tell this will be a tough one. I can see me still being stuck on this stage by the end of the week. I refuse to spend coins on these boosts and I already used my free complexity -1 so I'll be spending alot of time with this pokemon.

Has anyone thought of simply shifting the system clock forward to replenish hearts? Since the game seems to count down even when the system is turned off/offline, I'd assume this might work in some way.
The game has a check-in function, that might stop those attempts.
I spend coins on trainer battles only (after trying them several times without coins). I don't use coins on normal or EX stages.
I have only used Disruption Delay and Moves +5.
I have over 30,000 coins and 12 jewels (haven't done stage 150 yet). I have zero fear of ever running out of coins. If future updates add stupidly insane stages, I'll just quit playing. The nice thing about not spending any real money on this game is I have zero "investment" in it. I can quit at any time it starts getting absurd.

Joined the "stuck on Mega Glalie" club this morning. Fuck.
It's pretty hard to deal with when over 80% of your board is locked out in ice. At that point you can't even get in a position to clear it because you have no room to move at all.

I'm guessing it'll have some sort of protection against this, even without checking in. I recall older Pokemon games locking you out of certain features if you changed the clock or used them on a different system. There's no internal clock for the game in this case, but they may have some way to check. Even if nobody wants to try it out we'll likely find out if there's a penalty imposed for advancing the clock in 5 days when Daylight Savings Time begins.
Yep it's a terrible thing. Sometimes you get lucky and run out of moves which causes the game to refresh but more often than not you're just stuck with a few terrible moves that really do nothing for you.

Mega Slowbro's skill is some seriously broken shit, haha.
Been trying to get Articuno for a couple days but dat ice is too strong. He's my favorite Pokemon too.
Yup, haven't been able to come very close to catching him yet. I managed to get the 5 pokemon after him today at least.
I tried to fight Blaziken (EX stage 12) to help with Articuno, but I don't even know how that stage is supposed to be possible. 30 seconds, gray blocks, smoke clouds AND lots of health. If they're willing to make the stage harder while also cut the time you have in half, I don't even want to know what the 15 second EX stages are like.
Hell. They're like hell
Caught Articuno yesterday with 13% of catching rate. At first try. I was like "Woah" when that happened :lol

My clock was off by about 10 minutes. When I logged in after fixing the time, it locked me out of playing any special levels until I checked in. I didn't pay attention to my hearts, though.
