I play pokemon go every day
I play pokemon go

Second for z-moves never

Good.

>mega evolution
Retarded.

>fusion evolution
Retarded.

>z moves
Retarded.

Pokemon company getting desperate as fuck trying to get people to like the games again.

Mega evolve is as essential to the franchise as stone evolutions u nub

And z-moves go either way since there's definitely some pokemon that don't need the extra power (snorlax with z-move in pogo for example)

Totally agree about fusion evolution though

>Mega evolve is as essential to the franchise as stone evolutions
Not really. Just shitters covering bad game balance and making worthless evolutions. Half of all megas could be normal evolutions to begin with.

>u nub
Pic related.

Its almost like everyone at the company started watching old episodes of Digimon........................

Do people even care about Digimon anymore? Why would Pokemon try to copy an inferior product?

only started recently
>finally hit level 20
>need 50k to level up now
>pidgeys escape greatballs now
>all I want is a porygon
might just delete it desu

>popular = superior

That's as bad as saying pokemon sucks because its mainstream bullshit while digimon is a cult classic

And why wouldn't they try to copy other formulas? They've already shown they lack any originality since diamond/pearl, its like u think one franchise is actually better than the other hahahahahahahaha

There isn't anything to do in this game... It's just catching shitmons all day every day.
No challenging PvE content or fun PvP content. Why would I want more Pokemon when I can't even do anything with them?

ALRIGHT BOYS WHO /will to play destroyed by shitty movesets/ HERE?
REPORT THE FUCK UP HERE WITH YOUR SHIT MOVES.

reposting:
nidoking wiht megahorn a shit?
seems like he might be good against hypno and tree man.
Also do him and nidoqueen have a real use? anyone here bothered with them? I liked them on the gbc games.

Reminder that IVs mean nothing in this game.

They need to add some sort of events to keep the game fresh.
Right now at level 26 I pretty much have to make goals for myself to keep playing like: going and jogging from spawn point to spawn point to get specific mons or sprint from gym to gym to hold at least 4.

>17 bitedoze arcanines
>2 bite twister gyarados
>2 hyper beam dragonites
>no body slam snorlaxes

I'm level 20 and these are the highest fuckers I've managed to get. Why do other people my level have 1.5k+ pokemon?

>17 bitedoze arcanines
fucking how?
they probably blow stardust on high base CP mons like vape, arcanine or exe.

>spoofing
>botting
>map scanners

they are hacking

JK they are probably farming eevee, and things that get good cp gains per level, and scanning for goodies, also eggmons at 20 come at lvl 20 so should be at a high cp. Also only eggs received after lvl 20 will be lvl 20

Probably spent all their stardust like the shitters they are even though they at best got them to lvl 22 or so and they'll be finding wilds with that same CP in a couple levels. Save your stardust until lvl 28-30 when you start finding the max CP wild Pokemon.

pokesearch guy what was this about?

>JK they are probably farming eevee, and things that get good cp gains
Oh yeah, this too. Some Pokemon like Growlithe, Slowpoke, Dratini, Exeggcute, Gyarados and Vaporeon have ridiculous scaling. But CP is just a meme anyway. I put my 3000 Dragonite on a gym the other day and it can be killed by a 1100 Lapras, 1300 Golduck, 1400 Clefable, 1300 Wiggly and so on.

was curious about the same thing

hyper beam is more raw dps than stab dragon pulse if thats all you care about
its not a bad move by any means
basically every single moveset dragonite can get is a good moveset, some are just better than others

Caught a Eggecutor today

1198 CP
didn't check IVs yet but only "decent"
Solar Beam/Confusion

good/bad

good moveset for defending, shit CP

what level are you?
the moveset is good
IVs don't matter unless you're maxing out the pokemon each level

level 21
should I spend dust on this? I somehow managed to beat a higher CP vape a few times with this but only if I dodged well

nah just save up and evolve a new one one day
keep him for training against 1.2k pokemon

Don't know, I have 3 eggecutor and none of them have solar beam, so I'm not investing dust on them.
They are 1600-1800 CP, you will need to spend a lot to get him to a decent level.

Where do I check the best movesets for non top 20 pokemon?

pokemon go database

Do type even matter? seems like it's all about raw power and DPS when it comes to movesets.

>15/14/14 Dratini appears on the scanner
>7 minutes left
>When I rush there, it's gone
>The timer was off by 3 mins.

Fuck you, scanner and Niantic.

what scanner are you using

>knowing IVs beforehand
you're ruining the game for yourself
what makes you say it was wrong anyway?
I feel like it was probably correct

>I literally prefer when low CP pokemon appear

PokemonGo Radar ( iOS)

I arrived with 3 mins to spare, and literally saw it despawn.

is it on android?
the scanner, that is.

>is it on android?

>PokemonGo Radar ( iOS)

jesus christ

buddy system hurry up
I really hope it has more than just the candy thing
it better not be yet another thing they dont bother filling the potential for

Honestly I just want it to be RNG based, being only 1 candy per 1-3km doesn't feel really that rewarding.

Don't get your hopes up. Game will probably be dead soon. Winter is coming.

BUDDY SYSTEM TOMORROW OR RIOT

>hyped for 1 candy per 3k

But why user?

because this is the kind of content we get every 2 weeks
>get appraisal system
>IV don't even matter
thanks niantic

I have a small sliver of hope that its going to be more than that
it says 'unique in game rewards and experiences'

I got an 1367 Cp 84.4% exeggutor, with confussion and seed bomb (shittiest moveset according to gamepress) and a Exeggcute, 88.8% that evolved should be between 1315 - 1561 cp. Any reason to keep the first one, given I need one more candy to evolve the later?

keep it as your main jobber.

I have a small sliver of hope that its going to be more than that
it says 'unique in game rewards and experiences'

Thats just marketing talk. The 'unique in game rewards` is candy, the `experiences` is you walking your sorry ass at the park.

Every fucker is gonna buddy Dragonite, Snorlax or Lapras. That's about all.

he's still decent, keep him
also don't use whatever evo calc you're using because its wrong
pokemon don't evolve in a 'range' like that, he'll be exactly a specific CP
post your exeggcute and his appraisals

>bonuses
>...ses
>such as awarding candy for walking together
There really isn't any other bonus, is there?

Dratini is the less walkfag friendly mon.
There are some cool options like growlithe and eggsman because they have cool evolutions and are not that common like eevee.
But I'm sure most people will use a buddy to fill his dex with evolutions first.

I'm going to buddy charmander because charmeleon and charizard are two of the four remaining for my dex

but candy isnt unique to walking
I want to believe
please don't mean 'unique to evo line'

inb4 They come up with a new item to allow you to re-roll skils

>not buddying Digglet to fil the roads with potholes so the average car speed gows down to

Well, there are supposed to be more berries that haven't been released.

>not buddying snorlax so other people get stuck and have to find another way
Come on user, step up your game

>not buddying Hypno
You know why...

>idling
>gps teleports me to fuck god knows where
I'm sure niantic will ban me someday, same for when I'm the bus and the GPS is kill and I appear on another place.

I wouldn't be surprised if some other scanning service decided to pipe their requests through his.

Scanners are sort of at war with each other for that. Some of them try to lessen the load by funneling requests to other scanners even though they ask them not to, and then the scanners quit or die from the increased load while the ones funneling requests keep collecting ad bucks for their own scanners.

Two birds with one stone. Kill off the competition, spend less money on your own service.

>implying based patch won't save this glorious game tomorrow
stay salty friendo

game has so much potential they arent bothering to let it have

just an in game chat would make it so much better

>in-game chat
Hahaha no.

In-game chat would be disastrous.

>9.6/10 KM
what if something good happens

I don't know, it'll truly feel like a MMO if I can start calling other players "faggot nerds ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

even a heavily censored version like a 'there is a pokemon in this area!' button or something
as it is there is next to no player interaction in what they call an MMO

>in game chat

are you retarded? the whole appeal of this shallow grindfest of a game is the social aspect. you know, talking to people in the real world?

>date is a failure
>go to park after date is over
>make more friends there
wew lad

I'm not going to stop every person on their phone and ask if they happen to be playing the same phone game as me
The social aspect sucks right now
the only way to know if someone is playing around you is if you see a gym being interacted with

You will get people trollling and shouting false sightings all day. That, and spammers advertising their shit or something.

even an indicator saying that there are x players nearby is better than nothing

What is the best scanner folks
Tested a few and none stand out

inb4 Eevee

which ones have you tried?
pokesear.ch is the best I've found by far

>play pokemon go with ex
>have a nice time hanging out catching mons and shooting the shit
>she starts talking about her bf more and more
>tfw no gf starts hitting me
>just want somebody to love me like she did
>I'll never have her back
>even if I did it wouldn't be the same
>stop playing pokemon with her

wew lad :')

haven't been on in a while, do any of the bots evade ban yet

took time time son but you did the right thing

>1010
IT'S ALMOST HERE FAMPAI

>be in bus
>10km egg hatching soon, hope for snorlax
>bus approaches station
>snorlax nearby
>it's at the station
holy fuck i thought i was never going to get a rare
still got my 10km for today
is this moveset shit?

What's better body slam or hyper beam?

i guess hyper?

Hyper Beam, obviously.

I haven't played seriously in almost a month but with uni starting again I'll have plenty of time to farm between my classes and the gym

Update when?

lapras with subpar moveset

every moveset on snorlax is good
body slam is more raw dps (super fast animation), but hyper beam is a solid nuke
zen headbutt is stronger than lick, but lick is really fast which is really useful and potentially gets more damage out in a lot of cases

How is that even a question?

can sonmeone post that picture of the best gym attatacjers anddefenders with thieir movesets?

LAPRAS
1662 CP
ice shard/Ice beam, t-t-thanks

what makes you guys say hyper beam is better?
hyper beam is great, but its by no means outright better than body slam

hyper beam takes a full 5 seconds to cast, which leaves you open to at least 2 standard attacks from the enemy, as well as possibly their charge move with no option of dodging it
body slam has only a 1.56 second cooldown, which means you can use it inbetween the enemies fast attacks already, not to mention that its a 50 energy move as opposed to 100 energy on hyper beam

don't get me wrong, hyper beam is a really good move, but its up to playstyle preference on which one is better for you
you can't directly compare them in such a binary manner

still good

for the most part I usually preffer 50 energy powers, they do feel more reliable.

Got this from my second ever 10k egg. Any good?

>18 candy
the man that got cucked to death

the candies are good
kabutops is one of my 4 remaining

>omastar is good and kabutops is garbage
why is this allowed?

Hyper Beam actually does something, Body Slam isn't even worth using when you can just spam more fast moves. I say that as a guy who uses half a dozen different Snorlaxes to knock over gyms.

Stuff like Blizzard vs Ice Beam is personal preference sure but Body Slam is so god damned shit, I swear.

What's your opinion ob Earthquake?
