Not bad

xX MOLL Xx

Aside from having to grind to get anywhere, no pvp, no trading, and safari zone style catching (minus the rocks) it isn’t too bad for a free game. Raids are pretty decent. I live in a college town. I’d love to see the rest of gen 2 pokemon. I wish you could get more than one raid pass a day without buying. During the week it’s hard to find a decent raid during my schedule and on the weekend I run out of passes. Having a little trouble getting water type starters in my area.

Ok, this is insane. It’s 45 degrees and dry out and I got a warning about weather, that I had to dismiss by saying “I am safe”. Then there’s a weather pop-up behind it. Are you guys high? See request #2 1) FIXED! - Game loads insanely slow. I have an iPhone X and it takes longer than any game on my phone to load. ~15-20s average. Sometimes longer. 2) I have a weather app and my 5 senses to tell me of weather issues. I don’t need a “game” to tell me and force me to click an extra button to dismiss its intrusive message. 3) Battery drain with minimal use is pretty bad. Maybe offer a stationary mode, where people can manage their Pokémon inventory, etc. while not using GPS? Even adding a way to do this on my computer would be helpful. 4) “Appraising” Pokemon to determine their stats or “IV” is painful. Can you share out some additional Pokémon details on the main page, or even when clicking them individually? 5) FIXED! - When transferring to the professor, it automatically scrolls up to the top of your Pokémon list. Can it stay where it was on the page, similar to when you “appraise” a Pokémon? 6) Can you snap to grid on the Pokémon page? You have to be delicate when scrolling between favorites, Pokémon and egg pages, to not end up on the far right/left. 7) Can you implement a way to sort by which Pokémon are currently defending a gym? I don’t always use top CP Pokémon and it would be nice to sort in this fashion.

Okay so Niantic listen up okay? In 2016 I was all like "oh boy, Pokemon go! This in gonna be fun!" Then after about 8 months, it got REALLY BORING. After a year of playing, the game became one of the most boring games on my phone. So, here's an idea, ok? Put strategy and actual real Pokemon concepts in here. Like literally all you do in Pokemon go is swipe your screen up and tap. And it is 0.00000001% strategy. You just power up something a lot and kill everyone. So, put actually good ideas into this game and NOT make it boring trash. Thank you and good night-morning -some-random-time. (Idk what 4:39AM is classified as) -SuperSonicFan427

I haven’t been able to log in for three days. The game won’t let me play.

Don’t Waste Your Time And $

Soooooo....for the second time in 18 months I cannot access my account. The first time my account was frozen (AFTER REACHING LEVEL 31) and had to set up another account. NOW my new account will not allow access (AFTER REACHING LEVEL 35)...if this is the way you clowns handle your product rest assured...I WILL BE SURE TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE THAT THIS GAME IS A SCAM FOR NIANTIC TO MAKE MONEY!!! In my line of work I influence a multitude of millennials (and others) in regards to gaming.

What’s frustrating lately is when you battle a gym down and the same exact team takes it over before you can put a Pokémon into the gym. Example Instinct gets knocked out of the gym and within 3 seconds Instinct is taking over that gym again. How is that even possible? I thought whoever defeated the gym first was prioritized. Niantic- Do something to fix this issue. And add a minimum time before a gym (if it has anyone been in their for under 30 minutes) before anyone can battle it to earn 1-2 coins. Also I ran across a bug/glitch that error myself out of battling after damaging a few Pokémon in a nearby gym and someone was able to put a Pokémon in that gym while battling it down (you guys need to crack down on those cheaters). Edit: With the EX Raid passes, the passes should go to active raiders in the community and NOT some level 20 guy who has done a few raids recently (3 in one week and 7 all together). Also spread the passes along the active raiders so everyone has a fair chance. What’s needed soon is a trading for Pokémon and trading/selling for stuff in the inventory. The reason for trading Pokémon needs to come out because someone people came around just after the Legendary Birds disappeared or may not have Tauros (my region Pokémon) and are extremely low on funds or don’t have time to travel). Selling/trading items in the inventory is needed because some people don’t have enough of one or two items or people don’t want to give up tons of items in the inventory for nothing (maybe bulk selling is worth 5-10 coins for potions and 2-5 coins for balls) and bulk selling can happen every 3-4 days. What’s needed is daily objectives. Need to complete 2 or 3 goals. And the rewards are 5 Pokeballs, 15 or 20 coins, and 100xp for daily rewards and 10 Pokeballs, 50 coins, and 400xp for the weekly reward and 30 Pokeballs, 200 coins, and 2,000xp for the monthly reward. Also what's needed is raid punishment for people who leave during battle. It gets frustrating when you almost done with the raid and most people leave because their Pokémon die and don't feel like selecting new ones or a raid just starts with 12 people (example) and most of them leave except myself and 1-2 other people. But if you do leave for whatever reason it should go 1) warning 2) 4 day raid suspension 3) 1 1/2 weeks raid and gym suspension 4) 4 weeks raid and gym suspension. And game suspension after 3rd suspension (starts at 2 weeks then when you come back you start the gym/raid suspension). If you lag out or lose connection or "error" then you won't be punished. Also if you join a Raid but have to get going (work, weather, emergency in the area, late somewhere) just as it starts or shortly after it starts they should give the player a .25 to .5 of a mile to battle in the raid before it kicks them out. With raids, they should pop up even at night and early morning hours from 8pm to 5am. The only catch is that the raids are 1 and 2 stars in parks and non-residential areas so it won’t disturb people. With earning coins at gyms, it frustrating when you in a gym for 2+ days and only get A 1 day bonus of 50 coins. I've been in multiple gyms that I've defended for 3-4 days and only got 50 coins. So it would be nice to get the coins for the rest of days you are in the gym and get extra coins for extended stays in the gyms (so if you stay in for 4 days it would be 200 and extended stay would be 250 altogether). And if there are 2+ Pokémon in different gyms you should be able to get the same coins amount. Also if you are in a gym for a short period of time (like 5 minutes give or take) at least reward us with a couple of coins at least. Edit: There should be a friend request/list for this game along with with chat. So if you run across a helpful person/group you have the option to send them a friend request. Or can add people in different states and countries. It might be good so you can invite friends to raids or trading (if it comes out). Edit: Also maybe once a month for 1 day is open the requests for gyms and Pokéstops. It will be great for for people in rural areas (not myself though) and places that don’t have that many (which I seen). And maybe remove/organize couple of pointless Pokéstops (there’s one Pokéstop that’s a painting that isn’t there anymore and with a gym draped over the Pokéstop is a Starbucks so maybe have the Starbucks as the gym badge or whatever it’s called).

Why are Pokémon small and BIG ?

Blitz of fun

I have been noticing that some Pokémon are bigger than others, and when their is a bunch of Pokémon I don’t see the small ones . Like today their was a onix it was so small I couldn’t see it in the bunch of Pokémon their were . But it is a pretty good game . I play every day .
