Chill Guys… He might have just got confused with my question. It’s no big deal anyway as I had also do a little experimentation afterwards and verified it indeed CONTINUES until timer reaches zero.
Anyway, I do hope you will still answers my other question and more to come
Best option to make sure you both benefit from the friendship XP bonus is to see if you can get their details on some form of social media so you can contact them & let them know you’re going to open the next gift that levels you up. Our local raid chat does a “Super Sunday” event where we open gifts for Ultra / Best friends on Sunday at 10am so everyone who is leveling up can be sure the other trainers have a lucky egg on.
If you can’t do that (if you can’t contact them), maybe you can stop sending & opening gifts about 5 days before you level up. Then pick a date 5-7 days ahead where you open gifts (as long as the other trainer keeps sending them) each day at a certain time so when you get to the gift that levels you up the other trainer knows you’ll be opening it & can put on a lucky egg.
via Gifting, Friendship level increase ONLY ONCE per DAY if GIFT is Opened.
via Trade, also ONCE per DAY, and not together with gifting, right? meaning if you already opened a gift, then decided to trade, both will only Level one time that day?
I am not so into gym-battling and raiding these times…
Anyway, I come to think of it that perhaps that quest really means two separate pokemons since I believe there are still no evolution that uses an item like for example a Scyther using Metal Coat to evolve into Scizor then use another item to evolve that Scizor into another pokemon, isn’t it?
It means:
Evolve any 2 Pokémon that require an item (king stone, sun stone,… not sure if Sinnoh Stone works here).
You can evolve two of the same species, but you don’t have to.
There are no Pokémon that can be evolved twice and need an item both times, I think.
you can get friend-xp once per day. You can get your xp when you open a gift, but if your friend opens his first then there is no need to open his gifts that day.
Very important, you can see if you’ve gotten xp that day for each friend. Just look for the blue border circle around your friends profile pic. If it’s blue, don’t open gift.
and no. opening gifts and later on the same day trading does not help with friendship xp.
That is why i don’t understand why some people open gifts at 8AM. You don’t know who you gonna meet later on the day with raiding. If you don’t raid or have raiding friends this doesn’t apply of course
What is the standard time being used on the quest that evolves Eevee into Espeon and Umbreon?
I am at Philippines that has a GMT +8 (we have 12hours difference with Mainland US so if it was day time here, it’s night time in US).
I was into thinking that the quest is with local player time so I evolve the Eevee at 1:00AM++ in our local time thinking it will become Espeon since it was already Day Time here but it evolves into an Umbreom so I redo it again, walking another Eevee for 10KM and to be sure, I evolve it at afternoon here and it was a success then.
Question 11: I only look to the screen, not at the clock.
If the sky is clear blue and the soul is bright green, it’s daytime and an Espeon will evolve.
I the sky is dark and the soul is dark green, an Umbreon will evolve.
