I think I'm gunna save up for another Dragonite since I already have an 82% Dratini and around 30 candies. Woulda evolved that one over the 80%er but my pocket decided otherwise. Randomly scanned the beach I'd left earlier today and, of course, there's a Lapras chilling with 14 minutes left

Saw a Kabutops for the first time today. Only 97CP so I'm like "I got this". No razz and just a regular ball. Fled on the first throw. Motherfucker. Going forward, need to remember to razz and ultra ALL pokes that I need for the dex.

It's true! I used to have major issues but no matter what it is Ultra + Razz does the trick now. I think it's making up for being such a jackass before. My game's crashed about four times in the past hour and a half after not doing so at all for a long time previously. Anyone else having issues? Seems to mainly be happening when it tries to calculate distance so it means I don't get the last few minutes worth which is meh. Finally caught a Magmar, though, which I'm super happy about. Even if it does have Karate Chop.

I'm not crashing anymore but the game for some reason is eating through my 3000mAh battery in three-ish hours. Seems faster than before.

You've got two pokemon, one has a significantly higher CP but his IVs are okay and one has a lower CP but perfect IVs. Who do you put the effort in to? I haven't leveled or powered up a pokemon yet, I know dick about it.

Bean posted:You've got two pokemon, one has a significantly higher CP but his IVs are okay and one has a lower CP but perfect IVs. Who do you put the effort in to? depends on what you want to do with them currently. Perfect IV is a long term investment but you'll have to put every candy you get into them. High CP is for holding gyms now since the only thing gyms take into account is CP level. As long as you aren't the bottom of the stack it should be fine. I wouldn't invest too much in an okay IV mon since you're already seeing diminishing returns. It will probably be a while until the good IV is high enough to be usable in a gym though so keep that in mind as well. Also important is moveset and what mon it is. If it's not top tier fighting mon don't get too excited since you want some stardust Alan Smithee fucked around with this message at 13:20 on Sep 26, 2016 |

If you know what IVs are, you're more than capable of finding the answer to this question. Leveling strategies are the only remotely complex part of the game and outsourcing those decisions to the internet is only doing yourself a disservice. Also, moves are more important than moderate differences in IVs.

If it's not one of, like, five species, then the answer is "ignore the gently caress out of both of them." If you gave me a level 1 perfect Dratini or Snorlax, though, and it came out with the right move-set, I would probably bring it to max. What the gently caress else am I doing with all this stardust?

There's no universal answer to this question. So: 1) Which Pokemon are we talking about? 2) If the Pokemons can't evolve (any further) what are the movesets? 3) How likely are you able to obtain more candies by catching this Pokemon (or one of it's lesser evolutions) in the wild?

Level 21 and I just hatched my second 10k egg ever (first was Eevee). Magmar max level, above average but not great IVs (haven't checked exactly yet), ember and fire blast. Good, or is Magmar Pinsir-level useless?

CrashCat posted:Probably graphics, I've seen a ton of games, even turn based 2D crap just have the graphics coded really poorly to use a ton of CPU and melt batteries. Phone games tend to be bad about that because the answer is always "get a new phone lol" A co-worker was showing me Final Fantasy Mobius and noted it doesn't come close to the drainage that Go causes. I guess the lovely code hypothesis is best.

Ingress was a game coded on top of a utility designed to give Google high precision GPS walking data by pinging GPS and wifi GPS assist as much as possible. Go is a reskin of Ingress.

Go is a reskin of Ingress. Ingress got me to buy a larger battery for my phone because of the GPS. Sure my phone wasn't as thin anymore but I could play a few times a day and my battery would last for a couple days. When I stopped playing, my battery would last over a week.

I accidentally put a pidgey in a gym today. Let's see how long he can last!Eikre posted:If you gave me a level 1 perfect Dratini or Snorlax, though, and it came out with the right move-set, I would probably bring it to max. What the gently caress else am I doing with all this stardust? This is fine if you're playing "quest for the perfect Pokemon" but I've been saving my stardust using it only while taking over or training a gym. I like having a wide variety of mons so that during training you have the lowest possible CP that can win a fight. If I could extract stardust from a mon to lower their CP, I would be all over that and would probably only need a dozen pokemon ever. When you slot a guy of yours in to a gym, you want to have him high enough that he's enough rungs up the ladder he won't get knocked off so quickly, so that's when I power up my guys. There's no benefit to pumping all your stardust into a lvl 1 snorlax just to have him sit at home.

My game crashes almost always if I try to inspect a gym or do anything regarding a gym, but to be fair I'm primarily running the game on my iPhone 4s and the game specifies that you should have an iPhone 5 or higher to play it. The handful of times I don't gym crash I try to put one of three of my monsters in there- my highest level Vaporeon, my Exxegcutor Bob, or my 10 cp Magikarp I named Karp U. Because its funny.

Question: What's the best types to use to train against Lapras? A couple of the local gyms have those on the bottom and I'll be going to train them up a bit soon, but looking at the type bonuses, it seems like the water/ice types end up with conflicting type bonuses. Is that going to end up with me just doing normal damage? IE Grass damage is super effective against water but bad against ice. Would that end up with me doing normal damage against Lapras with Victreebel?

Is that going to end up with me just doing normal damage? You would be super effective and the Lapras would be super effective against you as well. Rapidash and Magmar with a fighting fast move can work against Lapras, since it has a weakness to Fighting and their Fire-type makes Ice less effective. But those are all a bit sub par and it's a question if they've got enough CP to not get utterly destroyed anyway. Mierenneuker fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Sep 26, 2016 |
