Pokemon Go (Mobile July 2016)

[Not Kuno]

On a 0-15 scale:

15 Attack / 15 Defense / 15 Stamina = 100%
0 Attack / 0 Defense / 0 Stamina = 0%

It should be noted that the way this works is pretty weird. It's literally a +15 to whatever stat if it's maxed. Meaning an already beastly Pokemon is gonna see less of a boost to having +15, whereas weaker Pokemon benefit much more from +15 to everything. But it's still optimal to have the max regardless.

What does it mean when it is a % of perfect for us poketards out there?

Elvaan > all

The highest I have is a 97% Ponyta w/ tackle and flame charge from an egg, the rest are in the mid to lower 80s.

Percentage-wise what's the lowest that's worth maxing out? 85% rating upwards? Higher?

Honestly, for me, moves are #1 priority. An 85% whatever with the super optimal best moves is going to be better than a 95% or even 100% pokemon with shitty moves IMO. However others would probably disagree.

Problem is you don't know what the final evolution moveset you will end up with. So I tend to wait for a 91%+ to evolve and pray for a good moveset. If a bad moveset, then start from scratch. If a good moveset, max it out.

[Pringles]

Can an active lure on a stop create a nest while the lure is on? I ask because there's a spot at work that's a triangle of three stops that overlap. All three had lures active and I caught in an 8 minute span 9 bulbasaurs

Ya I figured, most of mine in the 80% range or higher have quite poor move sets (either low attack or same type moves) of which some can still be evolved so I may just evolve them anyway once I have the candies and hope I luck out or not.

My problem is that I want 15/15 hp and no less than 25/30 cp >.>

I can't bring myself to worry too much about Min/Maxing in this """""""""game"""""""""". I don't feel it matters how beefy your Pokemon are, your gym will be taken in like 2 hours by one guy with a group of 1,500 Vaporeon's. But goals are goals so to each their own!

I've been trying to get a Nidoqueen and I'm literally at 122/125 Candies and haven't seen a single fucking Nidoran(F) in over a week. I want to punch a fucking baby every time I see another goddamn pidgey or ratatta.

It does seem to pull pokemon that normally spawn in the area. Lure I was at today was an Abra nest and I know I've seen Abra in that area before. Same for Bells/Oddishes at a lure I was at last Friday.

Patch out. Stability improvements.

It say "No Text fixes". Fucking lol at least they can be self aware

[Adajer]

I dont think any of their patch notes have mentioned any of the actually game play changes. They have all just said minor fixes when the patch has major changes

[Anoat]

Game borked for me. All Pokemon were showing up "too far away" when I tried to engage them. Closed app and download update and now all the Pokestops and gyms have disappeared

[Myrrh_Quetz]

I feel like spawns have decreased DRASTICALLY around my area. I used to be able to walk a couple blocks in any direction and have shit spawn every bit. Now, that walk. I'm lucky if I get a zubat.

Honestly the difference in CP for a 0% compared to a 100% is only about 10%. So how much 10% more CP matters to you is really up to you but I think a pokemon's moveset is way more important than its IVs. I probably wouldn't blow candies on something you want to use for combat unless it's 50% of better, but again, that's up to you. I have three 95%+ Arcanines but I use my 80% one because he's the only one that has Fire Fang and Fire Blast. I have a lot of high IV Lapras, but the one I'm using is only 40%, because it has Ice shard and Ice Beam.

Feel this way too, strongly, just figured I was crazy :\

Feels like i'm catching more though, in terms of less flee rates.

Ended up in New York today and Jesus Christ the advantage they get there is ridiculous. Unlimited balls, silly amounts of experience from constant stops and endlessly popping mobs.

I went to Central Park and there's a spot with 4 overlapping stops which obviously have lures on constantly and you don't even have to move. Then there's 3 more stops if I walk like 100 ft. It's crazy. In 30 mins there my pokedex went from 70 to 84.

Also pretty tired of the egg hatching distance being so off. Friends watch said we walked 7.5 miles. Only registered 1.1km on eggs

For iOS? I don't get an update prompt on Android.

[Obsidian]

It was iOS only I believe. Bumped the version number to 1.3.1?
