re: Official Pokemon GO Megathread

I don't know man. I never really notice getting anything that other people aren't already getting except for venonats, rattatas, pidgeys, weedles, and caterpies. Even when I go to the duck pond which is a nest for magikarp, slowpokes, psyducks, and some time draining. Every time I pop an incense if I get one of those popping up on my screen so does everyone else. But when I get one in the first list it's only for me aka my incense.

I don't know I just don't see them as being worth it other than grinding stardust.

I noticed the same. I'm also level 20 and I have over 150 regular balls, 30 great, and like 12 ultra. I rarely get any of the later two.

I hit a bunch of pokestops all day and don't see a difference. Laziness has me using regular balls and I have been around 200 great balls for awhile now.

If anything I see an increase in great/utlra.

Currently at 164 regular, 153 great, 89 ultra.

Pokémon Go loses its luster, sheds more than 10 million users

quote:

It had almost 45 million daily users in July, but this figure appears to have sunk by more than 12 million since the start of August, to just over 30 million said to be playing Pokémon Go. Further decline is expected, as downloads, engagement, and the time users spend on the app have all also visibly flopped, according to data provided by Sensor Tower, SurveyMonkey, and Apptopia.

Bloomberg, which saw the raw data, reported that other major apps such as Twitter, Facebook, and Snapchat "can breathe a sigh of relief" that Pokémon Go is finally wobbling, as the game's popularity had apparently been costing them considerable amounts of users.

"Given the rapid rise in usage of the Pokémon Go app since the launch in July, investors have been concerned that this new user experience has been detracting from time spent on other mobile focused apps," said Axiom Capital Management analyst Victor Anthony.

Developer Niantic is persevering with the game, however, and is due to release version 0.35.0 for Android and 1.5.0 for iOS. According to the patch notes, players "will now be able to learn about a Pokémon’s attack and defence capabilities from their Team Leader to determine which of their Pokémon have the most potential for battle."

Niantic also hinted at upcoming developments designed to improve the game's questionable longevity, saying: "We are still working hard on several new and exciting features to come in the future of Pokémon Go."

So nothing about tracker being fixed?

I hatched all my eggs except one 10km today and got NOTHING new. Ugh!! However, I did get enough to evolve 3 things into new stuff so it wasn't a total loss. I now have a Starmie, Golduck and Machoke.

I saw the shadow of a Snorlax on my nearby list today but could not find it.

My friend caught a Gyarados in the wild!! I am so jealous!

Oh, and I picked up another 10km egg tonight. I have been extremely lucky with those 10km eggs. I know people who are a level or two higher than me and they have only had 3 or 4 ever and I have had 4 this week.

This is like the 3rd time I am hearing about spawning areas changing and I have NEVER experienced a change. Nothing but pidget, rattata and other crap around me. Has been the same since the beginning. The one difference is I used to run into Doduo all the time and I haven't seen one in ages but I also haven't seen anything new in its place.

There are only certain things in each type of egg (so they say). I want the 10km because I want the Snorlax and it is only found in the 10km eggs. Today my 10km hatched me a Pinsir (the worst) and a Scythe. The 5km has a lot more things in them than the 10km but I am looking for that damn Snorlax. Other than that I wouldn't mind a bunch of Magikarp just for the candy.
