Seems I found an error in the game…
Today two times I was thrown out of a raid with error 43. This error normally comes out when you try to use a Pokemon in a raid which is placed previously in a gym.

But I was quite shure that I have no Pokemon in any gym.

Thinking a bit I got it. I have a Fusion of Kyurem with Reshiram, and I normally just use the Fighting Team proposed by the game. And looking in the next gym I saw the Reshiram in the team…

The game could work with a little bit more detail and not using this Pokemon.

Another…
With the last actualization we have a new feature in the Pokedex. Opening the register of a Pokémon you find a button to activate an alarm. From there on the game will advice you when this Pokémon is near.

Up to there very nice. But the publicity applauses this new feature because “it helps to fullfill the Pokedex”…

Maybe they have not noticed that you cannot open a register of a Pokémon you have never seen. So, maybe they could explain where is the help to complete the Pokedex?

I’ve checked this as the feature did seem useful when I heard about it. When I went into the pokedex for Kanto region (just an example) and picked a pokemon that I’ve seen but not registered (we can see just the shadow), when I click on it, I do have the option to select that special alert.

I didn’t activate anything yet, as I don’t want the push notifications now, but it seemed like the option was there, at least when going through this route.

Maybe the game gives us a signal when this specific new pokemon is caught by the nearby pokemon “radar”?


After writing this I’m thinking that maybe you’re specifically referring to the pokemon that you’ve never even spotted before, so there’s not even a shadow but only a number?

Maybe for now the feature is meant only for scenarios in which you’re already familiar with the pokemon, just haven’t caught it, so it helps to progress the pokedex that way (in this specific scenario).

Yes, I was talking about the entries with only the number.

And I’m shure it will be helpful for starters, or at least players on the half way up.

But I’m searching for only 4 Pokémon, which I need to have the 100%.

In any case, yes, I will use it for to find Hundos I don’t have. This alerts will help for not to loose any chance on the way.

Yes, I suppose it’s more useful when you have lots of missing pokemon, a lot of times you spot them in gyms or battle league. But maybe it’s a feature to be improved on in the future!

Trying to play the Archen day thing while I do a few things and a phone carrier decides to fails.
Well done FLOptus. Trying to chase 100% Omanyte needed on the other family accts.

Had 2-3hrs of free time to chase 100% on the map over the last 2 nights. Results have been very poor. 100% spawns have been unusually thin in appearance and when the target ones did show on the Map they were in places I physically cannot get to. On the flip side when reachable ones did appear they were 2-3mins outside the time I could drive there in time. I always seemed to be in the wrong area.

I’m not liking whatever season is currently going on. It is full of Kanto spawns, regional spawns are almost nowhere to be found. I just need one single Sensu Oricorio, so far even the radar hasn’t found one, where it shouldn’t be hard to even find it on the radar since I don’t have one of these at all. Scopely really needs to address this, what is even the point of having regionals when they do not even spawn in their respective regions? Same thing with the Blue Flabébé too, I only got it because it was apparently a GO Fest spawn as well, but outside of GO Fest I haven’t seen one at all.

Every day, every week, every month I have an augmented sensation that they have no idea of the maintenance of this game. Ideas for augment the money to win, yes, this ideas are floorishing. But passive, friendly walking in the future… this way is abandoned.

To update this, I am convinced Flabébé spawns and Oricorio spawns are completely turned off. There is no way even my sightings couldn’t pick up a single Oricorio in five days in the center of a capital city that has so many Pokestops that I can barely even see the map. Also doesn’t help I found a thread from 23 days ago suggesting Flabébé and Oricorio spawns might be turned off. The only other way is that every single online map is just wrong, and that old posts suggesting I should be able to find a Sensu Oricorio here why I am are outdated, but that just cannot be the case. All other regionals are spawning just fine, I just caught a Pansage a few minutes ago, and I have also seen some Corsola, Torkoal, Volbeat, Solrock, Zangoose and Volbeat around. It’s just Flabébé and Oricorio that seem to be absent Can anyone confirm if they have seen a Flabébé or Oricorio outside of GO Fest by chance? I asked support about it, and they gave the same non-response like they always do.

I hatched a blue flabebe yesterday, but I can’t remember if I got that 2km egg from go fest or not. I had never seen a blue flower before, until go fest (wild spawn) and then more recently this egg. i haven’t seen them since in the wild.

I remember seeing flowers of other colours (mainly red) before the event, just not blue.

The only oricorio I see in my area is the black and red one, I’ve never seen the other ones. I know I saw it sometime in June (second half), but unsure as to when!

I’m seeing many starters spawning on the map and some pokemon with special party hats. There’s also just the party hat spawning and then you get a pokeball (any type) when you click on it. I think it’s neat!

And today the spotlight hour is all about party hat pikachu, which, me being a pikachu fan, I’m very excited for. I’m currently struggling with inventory space at the moment, so that management on the go is going to be annoying.

Thank you for checking. Flabébé is indeed a GO Fest hatch, I don’t think it’s ever been in Eggs before though I am not entirely sure.

Wow, and they will now add another regional here right after my holiday. Well, time to go back next year it seems… If they are even still spawning by then…

Game owners say they are against GPS cheating but continue to persist with the GPS cheating theme of region locked Pokémon.
Add another to the growing list of Pokemon I will never get to collect.
There used to be that possibility years down the track in GoFests but as per the latest one they now lock these behind a Paywall too when they do that.
Maybe I should be in the have a whinge thread :rofl:.
