Q: Pokemon Go login issue 2 accounts

my daughter and I both use my phone to play Pokemon Go. Everything was great until this morning. She literally played all day yesterday and was excited about her progress. After playing, she logs out, that way I don't "mess anything up on her account!". Her brother and her went out this morning,...

(Trump's campaign manager used to be a lobbyist for a Pro-Russian President of Ukraine)

arda

Hnnng why is there a sign out button under google image search mobile

NBN-Alex

@twobugs It's weird, but makes sense in the macro view.

two bugs

@NBN-Alex I agree. This is certainly a conspiracy theory still, but it's an interesting one.

Unionhawk

@twobugs Oh yeah, Vladimir Putin, the rightful president of ukraine

(that's a joke or something)

two bugs

At this point it wouldn't shock but me but I think it's clear Russia (or elements of the Russian gov't) are trying to fuck around with a lot of countries

It's not okay when they do that and it's not okay when we do that

Unionhawk

17:42

but mr bugs the cia does that all th-- oh

NBN-Alex

much of the RNC platform is xenophopic, the EU (for example) is a spector of that boogieman of "BIG 'OL GOVNMUNT STEPING ON OUR FREEDOMS" that they love to tout around. Yet, RU is more like what they wish they could be again. unified with a clear "enemy"

MadMAxJr

It's okay. Trump will rewrite history. We will have the best history.

Unionhawk

are you implying that the united states government does things that are not okay how dare you are you nto an american what is wrnog with yuo

MadMAxJr

@Unionhawk Congratulations, you're now on a list!

MadMAxJr

Oh don't worry, top men are working on making questions illegal.

two bugs

@Unionhawk Yes

Unionhawk

versus "EVERYTHING YO USAY ISWRONG AND URDUM"

Schism

@Ellesedil It's enough to convince me that I need more investigation before I can make that claim without a disclaimer. :-)

MadMAxJr

Failing that, everything you say is a minecraft mod.

Schism

@Ellesedil Too bad everyone around me is also Mystic so I can't gather much data... :/

two bugs

@Schism Those poor bastards

Ellesedil

@Schism: Ok. I know they're fairly close, though, within a handful of levels of each other. I'll see when I attack some more gyms... although like you said, Vaporeon is pretty overpowered right now and since I leveled it up, I've noticed it more likely to be the top Pokemon the game selects for me.

NBN-Alex

17:47

@twobugs wondermark sealion, or different one?

Unionhawk

or even "TEAM VALOR IS THE BEST" as an example of "all caps to indicate sarcastic wrongness"

Ellesedil

@Schism I'm on Instinct, so I have ample opportunity to attack gyms. Valor is the popular team in my area.

two bugs

@NBN-Alex Wondermark. I always forget the name, thank you

Schism

@Ellesedil I have to say, I honestly wish I picked Instinct. It just seems like it'd be so much more fun losing my gym every five minutes ;)

NBN-Alex

@twobugs classic!

MadMAxJr

17:50

I'm sure you'll be able to buy team switches within a year....

Frank

If there's enough people around, you lose your gym every five minutes, anyways.

Dragonrage

I've had control of a gym near my house for 2 days now.

and I didn't even throw that high of a level pokemon there.

Ellesedil

@Schism I can sometimes manage to hold 3 or 4 gyms at the same time some evenings. Of course, that doesn't always happen. I live near 2 gyms, and there's a train station a short walk from me that has 2 gyms right next to each other. You can attack both and spin a pokestop without moving.

Dragonrage

it was only a 1100 arcanine

Frank

@Dragonrage "only"

The best I have is a ~300 Jynx.

Ellesedil

17:51

I caught my first Jynx Saturday - 20 CP :p

Unionhawk

@Dragonrage double rekt by OP pokemon

Dragonrage

arcanine isn't even op in pokemon go

Schism

There are definitely plenty of people around. This one gym near me has held on for almost a week with a 3k CP Dragonite.

Ellesedil

Ok, a 3k Dragonite is a thing.

Dragonrage

and it is at a pretty big church too, so im surprised no one has taken it down

Frank

17:53

We were downtown yesterday, and a gym had a 2.3K Dragonite.

Got displaced by a 1.8K Vaporeon.

Unionhawk

water gun OP

Ellesedil

It is.

Unionhawk

I think technically blastoise might end up being super powerful

Dragonrage

the best i have is a 1400 arcanine, but i use my 1200 vaporeon to kill everything

Unionhawk

Which incidentally is the same in the TCG iirc

Dragonrage

17:54

like i can beat entire gyms that are level 5 or lower with it a lot of times

Schism

Isn't Blastoise the weakest one in ORAS meta?

Wipqozn

@Schism for gen 1 starters? I think so

Frank

Bah. Time to call Nintendo again.

Q: Pokemon Go - Why don't Pokemons appear unless I restart my Pokemon Go app?

so basically I go out poke hunting with my brother and when for example a pokemon appears, it would show on his but not on mine, so then I close the Pokemon Go app and start it up again, and then the Pokemon appears, why is this? Is there any fix? I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 edge if that helps, an...

Frank

Kaizerwolf

18:17

Frank

@Kaizerwolf My car got broken into, and my 3DS and other stuff stolen.

StrixVaria

@Frank Oh, were you visiting the States?

Frank

@StrixVaria Nope, just here.

Kaizerwolf

oh damn, that's unfortunate

StrixVaria

@Frank Did they at least leave an apologetic note?

Frank

18:19

@StrixVaria We may be polite, but nobody's THAT polite.

Unionhawk

How rude

Dragonrage

@Frank well, i wouldnt consider stealing to be polite.

Frank

Smashed in my window, too. That's expensive to replace.

@Dragonrage It's a joke on how polite Canadians are.

Dragonrage

i know, but if they were truly polite, they wouldnt have broken into your car, or stole your 3ds

also they wouldve been polite enough not to ruin the Canadian stereotype of being polite.

Unionhawk

must have been an american visiting canada

StrixVaria

18:21

@Unionhawk Yeah, that was my next guess.

Frank

Doesn't give me confidence in the city's attempts to get people to move downtown, at all.

Dragonrage

speaking of america, there was a shooting on the street corner next to my house

StrixVaria

@Dragonrage :|

two bugs

So I guess investors only just realized Nintendo has little involvement with PoGo?

And as a result their stock is down 17%

Kaizerwolf

AHAHAHA

dang

that's funny

up 8% just to fall 17%

started from the bottom now we've dug ourselves a deeper hole

murgatroid99

18:31

@Kaizerwolf I don't know where you got 8% from

The stock is still higher than it was before the spike

two bugs

It's just ridiculous how much their stock has changed with them doing nothing.

Unionhawk

investors are a fickle bunch, especially those who invest in video games

murgatroid99

@twobugs They do have a small cut of Pokemon GO. And investing in a share of Niantic isn't really nothing

StrixVaria

Is PoGo also waning in popularity already? It was huge for the first week or whatever, but even among my coworkers who were all about it the hype is dying down.

Kaizerwolf

oh really? My bad, I read 8% somewhere when PoGo launched

Unionhawk

18:33

I mostly stopped caring

Dragonrage

@StrixVaria i think it is somewhat, but not completely yet. give it a month

StrixVaria

It just doesn't really have lasting appeal.

It's not deep enough.

Dragonrage

> "I don't know how some users can apparently be an 'avid enthusiast' of housework, but I'm keen to find out!" - @Robotnik

murgatroid99

@Kaizerwolf It basically doubled in the two weeks after the Pokemon GO launch

Kaizerwolf

huh, alright then, color me wrong!

Unionhawk

18:35

slightly more than 100% yeah

Dragonrage

@Kaizerwolf what color is wrong? some weird shade of puke?

two bugs

@murgatroid99 I mean after the game released Nintendo did basically nothing. Their stock SOARED, and then started to drop. I think that's funny

Kaizerwolf

My hype has died out too, it's a neat game but the lack of bug fixes, the lack of anything decent nearby me, and the lack of any features just make it kind of lame now

I shouldn't have to live in NYC or Santa Monica to get halfway decent pokemon

Dragonrage

@Kaizerwolf they did minor text fixes.

Kaizerwolf

shit, a guy in NYC already has as many pokemon as it's possible to get, minus the legendaries and region locked pokemons

StrixVaria

18:37

@Kaizerwolf Even though I'm in NYC every weekday, the fact that it works like this is pretty killer to me too.

I might as well not play while I'm at home compared to how productive I can be in like 1/10th the time at work.

Kaizerwolf

and I'm over here in bummy-nowhere new york with Pidgeys and Weedles everywhere

also @Dragonrage I'd like to imagine it's that color, yes

Dragonrage

@Kaizerwolf i can go on 4 mile walk and find a whole lot of nothing

Kaizerwolf

it's a shame because I really want to like it, and I like that it makes me more active, but the lack of anything good to keep me interested, and the serious pay-to-win walls, it's just a shame

although that's the case for any mobile game now, at least for pay to win

two bugs

Yup, it was a great idea that was executed poorly

The only enjoyment I have left is from collecting and given how limited that is, screw it

murgatroid99

"Pay to win" doesn't really seem accurate for Pokemon GO. I'm level 20, and I haven't had any reason to pay for anything yet

Kaizerwolf

18:42

also nothing even stays in a regular Pokeball anymore, I found a 260cp jigglypuff today, and it ran after one shake in a ball. It's ridiculous

two bugs

I wouldn't say it's pay to win but it gives you an advantage

A pretty decent one

Kaizerwolf

@murgatroid99 I suppose not, but buying incense and lures and lucky eggs all the time certainly helps

two bugs

Incubators are pretty big, IMO

murgatroid99

It would be nice to have more incubators, but you can progress pretty well with barely any interaction with eggs

Kaizerwolf

also people with more time than I are just so ridiculously far ahead of me in terms of CP and level, that attempting gyms is impossible

murgatroid99

18:46

You know, you can beat a gym using lower-leveled pokemon, especially if you dodge and use type advantages

two bugs

@murgatroid99 Yup, they just help. Same with all the other stuff you can get a much greater supply of via coins

Kaizerwolf

yes, I understand, but I'm talking about my best pokemon being Vaporeon at 900 something, whereas the gyms now have 1500+

two bugs

It's not exactly pay to win, but it's definitely a leg up

Kaizerwolf

also I cant type advantage all the time because there's nothing for me to catch

two bugs

Battling is so simplistic and lopsided that it seems pointless for me to invest $$$$ though

Q: A Dark Room No Huts Challenge

If you do the no huts challenge when does the script first change? I looked at many other websites but I could not find the answer.

a-dark-room

Kaizerwolf

I'd gladly take an electric type advantage over all the Lapras' around me (which I also can't find) but the only electric pokemon I could get is Jolteon, and he's just weak as it is

two bugs

Basically all of the electric types are boned since they tend to favor speed

Ronan

It's a relatively single player game though, there are no leader boards or anything, so there's no real win to pay to.

two bugs

Speed as a stat does basically nothing and electric attacks tend to have long animations (meaning low DPS)

Kaizerwolf

@Ronan that is a good point, for sure. When it comes to gyms though, I get their optional, but it's certainly disheartening to work and walk for so long, and then not even be close to their power

they're*

Ronan

18:51

@Kaizerwolf Yeah it's not great, but it really just means you're slower to level up, and it's not like you can compare how often anyone plays.

Kaizerwolf

I mean even looking at Pokevision, there's an aerodactyl at Santa Monica... when in the world would an aerodactyl even spawn around bum-nowhere me?
