Pokemon Go (II): Network Error

[Melena]

It's a galaxy S10 +, working fine. The Samsung Health tracks my steps with no issues. Just whatever was in that patch they did to try to stop people from putting their phones in socks and twirling them to crack eggs broke it for me. And I saw some others on reddit with the same issue.

I'm using a Galaxy S9 and it's working fine.

Galaxy S7 and mine kept track just fine during work. However I didn't realize they'd done a patch to try and fix that walking distance exploit, which sucks. That's how I hatch a majority of my eggs since I don't get the opportunity to do a lot of walking around. They were fine with it all this time when it was just for eggs, but it only took a few days for them with that 3k walk distance on the PVP for them to get greedy in hopes of people spending more coin it seems.

edit: walking exploit still works for me. hurrah.

Thanks to our friends in New Zealand it was confirmed the “mystery Pokémon hour” today will feature Onix. I already have two shinies from the last event so I’m gonna pass on participating. But Onix is really good for those excellent curveball research tasks if you’ve been sitting on one.

Team Rocket leaders have updated their roster. You now have a chance to get shiny shadow Pinsir from Cliff, shiny shadow Beldum from Sierra, and shiny shadow Mawile from Arlo.

I still don't see the appeal of shadow Pokemon.

[Anoat]

It’s mostly a lore thing from the main series but occasionally you can get a hundo out of purifying.

[Hitou]

Purified Pokemon also take less candy to power up and evolve.

[Vaspinne]

You gotta also save up enough candies or have a charged TM for them though to get rid of the shit Return move all purified pokemon automatically get

Our friends in New Zealand/Australia have verified the mystery hour bonus today is double catch stardust.

[detlef]

I guess I should say I don't see the appeal of shadow pokemon when lucky pokemon exist. 10% savings in candy/stardust and +2 stats versus 50% savings in stardust and 12 IV floor.

Some of them look cool with red eyes and dark aura.

My wife has a 96% shadow bulbasaur that she's keeping shadow because "he looks so angry yet cute!" So yeah, some of it is looks.

[Souj]

Most of the people I run into in battle now have registeel. Switching my monkey man for entai to see how he does. (My monkey is full fighting- to combat all the ice/water I'd been running into, but his lack of bulk is terrible against the steel types, especially registeel.

Get an alolan marowak. It wrecks him and is really useful in a lot of situations including baiting shields.

[Obsidian]

Toxicroak is good against a lot of the common tanks in Great League as well.

Never managed to grab one. Shame.

3star toxicroak. Counter/dynamic punch. Well see how that does.

[Obsidian]

You want to give it Counter + Mud bomb/Sludge Bomb if you can.

[Souj]

Seems to be a glitch I've run into a lot when someone switches out a pokemon right after a big attack, it makes the model disappear so the opponent cant see what pokemon it is until the text appears that accompanies a charged attack.

[Anoat]

Even if the model doesn’t load the name of the opponent’s Pokémon should be listed opposite of yours.
