What a funny game is PokĆ©mon Goā€¦ :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

After this afternoon I have now 1003 Golden Coins, but I donā€™t have a Switch, and the people I know with a Switch donā€™t play PokĆ©mon.

And now? If, at least, I could exchange these coins for something elseā€¦

Niantic should open a pawn shop for us to sell stuff back (at a discount from market value, of course) for PokƩcoins.

Thanks for using that invite this morning, @celery . I enjoyed the trio.

0 shinies in 21 encounters since Tornadusā€™ return as T5 boss, thoughā€¦

You canā€™t imagine how I enjoy doing these things, very near to what the game is giving me.

In this moment Iā€™m working on an Access database of all my captures.

Mystery Box opens more frecuently during eventā€¦ hahahaha

Instead of waiting 3 days it needs only 2 days. How lucky we are with Nianticā€¦

The best part of the event was the random boost box they added, then took it away after like two hours. Luckily I was able to snag it, and it was probably the best box I ever bought. They must have realized how good it was.

Anybody can explain to me what you win in a research ā€œCatch 20 PokĆ©monā€ and you get 15 PokĆ©Ball?

Up to now I thought that I need at least ONE ball for each catchā€¦ so I will loose 5 Balls with this research?

Or do they think I will catch with or without research, so I loose lesser with this one?

I like the Pokeball reward tasks - Iā€™m always short on balls.

I wish they were all like this and not the kind that reward berries :grapes::pineapple::banana::cherries::strawberry::blueberries::eggplant:

If youā€™re one of the players who always has more Stardust on hand than you can spend, then I can understand the disconnect. Iā€™d catch the 20, with or without the 15 ball reward. So the research task just means that Iā€™ll have 15 balls more afterwards than I would have without the research task.

For me, though, catching 20 mons is always worthwhile, for the 2K dust. (or 3K if I have used a starpiece).

Well, better something than nothing. But I like more the oneā€™s like 5 balls for 3 catches.

Again the Mystery Boxā€¦ after the second I have 1 shiny by Box, meaning a relation of 1 shiny every 62 Meltan.

Is this the estimated relation, or am I as bad with shinies as allways?

Whatā€™s ā€œfull oddsā€ again? I thought it was something like 1 in 200ā€¦

Meltan is Medium rate or 1/150

Full odds is 1/500, or 1/512, or 1/450. One of those. I donā€™t know which though because everyone uses another rate for full odds.

Woo hoo! That means mine did pretty well. (ā€˜Didā€™ being the operative word ā€“ I donā€™t borrow tools more than 3 times; after that I need to get my ownā€¦)

So I have to be happy?? A lot of work to get two shinies. Maybe the best is you get this boxes for free, but you loose one hour of your time.

Reusing post for new question:

Is there any way to identify which habitat is associated with a particular postcard we receive? I donā€™t care whether itā€™s before we pin the postcard or after. Iā€™ve received several gifts from a friend in Qatar, which by the map should give a Sandstorm card, and every time the Sandstorm count in my Vivillon medals display has remained unchanged (I thought there might be locations not correctly paired with habitat, but the gifts were from different PokĆ©stops in Qatar)ā€¦

Makes me wonder if that association between gift location and vivillon habitat is sometimes just pseudo-random.
