Five Reasons why you should play Pokemon GO with a friend.

December 9, 2021December 2, 2021 Medic 0 Comments buddy, friend, pokemon go

Pokemon GO is supposed to be a friendly little game. The basic idea is that a community comes together to catch Pokemon and have fun. And when Pokemon GO first came out, we all had a lovely summer playing Pokemon together. Friendship level ups give a lot of experience Funnily enough, making new friends is actually one of the fastest ways to level up. As you reach different tiers of friendship, you get more and more experience. The higher the rank you reach, the more experience you’ll get. If you reach Best Friends, you get 100,000 experience! Having a Best… [Continue Reading]

Regional Pokemon Just Out of Reach

December 3, 2021November 29, 2021 Medic 4 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, regional pokemon

Regional Pokemon in Pokemon GO have always been a little odd. Instead of spawning worldwide, they only spawn in specific countries an geographical areas. As time passes on, it is possible that we will get more regional Pokemon, despite a lot of players not liking regionals. For many, getting a complete pokedex is impossible, due to being unable to travel the world. Instead, we have to just be content with what we have. However, regional Pokemon aren’t particularly evenly spread out. Some Pokemon are available on other sides of the planet. Others only spawn in tiny areas, and a lot… [Continue Reading]

A Collaboration event with Ed Sheeran?

November 24, 2021November 23, 2021 Medic 0 Comments ed sheeran, event, music, pokemon go

Collaborations in Pokemon GO are weird, and honestly quite neat. For example, in various countries, places like Starbucks have sponsored Pokestops. On the other hand, some players get sponsored balloons, that drop in and give you free stuff. And Pokemon GO has done a lot of collaboration with Japanese companies. There have also been events with other American companies too. Heck, we also have an entire dress-up category, where our in-game avatars can wear sponsored apparel. However, most of these sponsored events, items, and all that, they are all very… corporate. A bare minimum in the hope of selling a… [Continue Reading]

A Season of Misunderstood Mischief

November 23, 2021November 17, 2021 Medic 0 Comments hoopa, mythical, pokemon go, research

For this season of Pokemon GO, things have been a tad different. It’s been multiple months of mischief. And along side it, we actually have a quest for a new Mythical Pokemon. However, unlike normal Mythical Pokemon quests, Hoopa’s quest has a small twist on things. A good idea in theory Misunderstood Mischief is an attempt to do something new. Rather than just release the entire quest in one go, Misunderstood Mischief is designed to work alongside current events in Pokemon GO. Each of the research’s steps tied in with concurrent events, making it a tad easier to follow. In… [Continue Reading]

A Wish for Long Distance Communication in Pokemon GO

November 9, 2021November 3, 2021 Medic 0 Comments lucky, pokemon go, trading

In Pokemon GO, you need some form of communication. A massive part of Pokemon GO requires you to make friends and join each other in raids. Unless you are willing to skip doing Legendary and Mega raids, playing completely solo ends up being tiring rather than fun. The same applies for trading, to get Pokemon you want. However, Pokemon GO is actually quite strict with trades and raids. You can only trade when close to each other, and you can only send Remote Raid invites to 5 people. And with GPS not being constantly accurate, can make matters worse. At… [Continue Reading]

5 Reasons Why You Should Be Walking a Magikarp

November 2, 2021October 26, 2021 Medic 1 Comment fun, magikarp, pokemon go

Magikarp is the best Pokemon. People call it a joke, but it’s the best thing around. Some Magikarp are so good that they can flip-flop over hills and leap over mountains. When a Magikarp grows tired of being awesome, it then evolves into a Gyarados, a massive flying sea serpent. One that can mega evolve into a monstrous dark water beast. Magikarp is also cool in Pokemon GO. Except that it takes 400 candy to evolve into Gyarados. No need to worry though, you’ll get that candy, don’t you worry! Anyway here are 5 reasons why you should walk a… [Continue Reading]

One-Time Mythical Pokemon in Pokemon GO

October 26, 2021October 19, 2021 Medic 0 Comments mythical, mythical pokemon, pokemon, pokemon go

Mythical Pokemon are weird. They’re simply not like other Pokemon. The vast majority of Pokemon are caught within games of Pokemon, whether it’s the original Red and Blue, current generation 8 Pokemon or even side games like Pokemon GO and Snap. However, with mythical Pokemon, it really does depend. Many Mythical Pokemon are somewhat withheld from normal, natural gameplay. Instead, they are given away as promos and prizes in various events. This can make filling a Pokedex a tad tricky and awkward to do. But, luckily, with Pokemon Home and Pokemon Go, you can much more easily catch Mythical Pokemon.… [Continue Reading]

On Legendary Buddies

October 19, 2021October 11, 2021 Medic 0 Comments buddy, pokemon go

I like the buddy concept in Pokemon GO. It’s one of the few things where Pokemon are treated as friends rather than candy. Sure, not a lot happens with the buddy system, but it’s a unique thing that you can passively work towards. Some Pokemon are easier to walk than others, and walking a Pokemon to Best Buddy isn’t always needed. I’ve also recommended in the past to not walk a Legendary or Mythical Pokemon, because they take too long before getting any tangible benefits. Well, call me stupid, because I don’t actually listen to my own ramblings. At all,… [Continue Reading]

The Ability to Change Forms in Pokemon GO

October 3, 2021September 26, 2021 Medic 1 Comment pokemon go

Pokemon GO recently had a Fashion Week. In it, we got a bunch of Pokemon with hats on, and a chance to be shiny. But more importantly, a new feature was somewhat revealed, alongside the Pokemon Furfrou. The new feature was the ability to change forms, something very new in Pokemon GO. At least, compared to the main series games. But is this feature actually any good? On the surface, yes. Currently, only Furfrou has this feature. In the main games, there are LOTS of different forms, but Pokemon GO is starting with one mainly cosmetic look. Unlike the normal… [Continue Reading]

Seven Hours for a Zarude

All of a sudden, we are swimming in special research. Pokemon GO does tend to have a lot of research tasks. But many of them are based on an event and just give a handful of extra rewards. On the flip side, we’ve also had a lot of special research, which can be done at our leisure. Currently, we have Hoopa research and Meloetta research. But on October 1st, we got something that’s genuinely really new. Zarude Special Research Yep, before the many Mythical Pokemon we don’t have, we had a Zarude research task thrown at us. The only real… [Continue Reading]
