Anything that will deliberately "stall" hardcore players will brickwall casual ones. There are still tons of average players working on Mew. It's never going to balanced for hardcore play since it's just not reasonable.
Me to, I'm just at 45 candies, will take me whole year. Biggest problem for me is that there are no many Magikarps around :(
I've been doing Magikarp raids, hatching eggs, and have gotten lucky seeing Magikarp in places. It also helps I live near the beach so I can get some luck there. But yeah, it's a slog.
Almost done though! Just 64 candies left...
:/
If Celebi means evolving Wailmer I might just quit this game all over again.
New update is rolling out to Android now, should come to iOS within the next day or two. Official changelog:
Looks like some nice QoL improvements, especially on the Friends screen. No more clicking through all 100+ friends to see which I've sent gifts to already!
Here is the full APK teardown from The Silph Road: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRo...ilph_roads_indepth_apk_teardown_of_v01152_is/
The update includes more code for the Pokestop Submissions system, the addition of Meteor Mash charge move and potential EX Raid Pass sharing(!).

I assume you started playing recently within last month or 2? Cause, there has been 3 Magikarp events now. heh
I'm sure we might get another down the road.
"Catch X Unown" for Celebi sounds like a right nightmare, never even seen one. Like I wasn't even sure if they spawned in the wild, was thinking it was only at special events like Go Fest.

Why do you think this will be a quest?
Might be a quest for the upcoming Japan event only.
It was a quest at GO Fest, but I believe it has been changed to "Catch 10 Psychic types" for this wide release of Celebi.
The Celebi list that's out there right now was just for Go Fest - I would expect a different list of tasks and rewards when it goes live on Monday - also for people who missed finishing the quest the Unown part changed to catch X psychic to allow them to finish it off.
I would love some of the rewards to remain the same (especially Torkoal) - https://pokemongohub.net/post/guide/celebi-quest-guide-go-fest/

But its much more likely we'll get a fresh set of quests
Well my problem is the magicarp. I already evolved one 2 years ago. So I had to start from scratch, and since then there are 3 gens watering down the encounter rate. So after about 60 km or so I have about 210 candies. I'll get there in about 2 weeks.
To be fair the pineapples weren't a thing 2 years ago, so it nearly balances out.
I don't think they care if hardcore players get it in 10-15 hours of playing.
Most of the casuals I know still are working on it. I'd guess the data is more in this realm than in people finishing it too quickly
For Magikarp candies remember :
One of the daily quests (catch 10 pokemon for an encounter) is a Magikarp
You can gain Magikarp candies by feeding either a Magikarp or a Gyarados berries in a gym
If you have friends playing any 'rubbish' Karp you can get be traded with them for the chance to get a better one but more importantly more candies than just sending your originally caught one to the professor (they can also trade you Karp they catch and when you send it to the professor you will gain candy for that).
And as you already mentioned distance i'll assume your walking with either a Karp or a Gyarados as your buddy so your gaining at least 1 candy every km
Finally got to 5/8 for the Mew Quests...and I have to find a Ditto.
I got my first Ditto when they originally started appearing and got another one within the last few weeks.
T-thanks Niantic

My gf got a ditto the same day she got to 5/8.
That was 2 months ago. She still hasnt gotten 10 ghosts. Shes gotten 4 dittos since

you also have to catch 50 pokemon with a berry during that step, so plenty of chances to practice.
If you go out at night or very early in the morning getting 10 ghosts will be easy.
My Rhydon has been stuck at a gym for two days now. Niantic really needs to just do an auto-kick after like 8 hours or however many you need to get 50 coins
This is so dumb.
This is so dumb.
They should make it so you can get 50 a day from the same gym. But that would be giving too much coins away when they want you to buy coins.
Thanks :)
Also what is the point of the level 1 raids like Magikarp and Charmanders? Is there a high chance of getting a shiny or something?
Pokemon can level 1 through level 40. Any Pokemon can be powered up to level 40 (assuming a trainer level of at least 38; below that you are capped to two levels above your current trainer level). The position of the white dot on the semicircle on top of the Pokemon information screen is a graphical representation of the Pokemon's level in comparison to the maximum level you can currently obtain.
What differentiates Pokemon are their IVs, which represent a bonus to how powerful a Pokemon is relative to their level. IVs remain unchanged while powering up and currently only change upon trading a Pokemon away.
Generally Pokemon appearing in any tier raids are Pokemon that are otherwise difficult to encounter, and are usually relevant to research tasks in some way. Increased Shiny odds are also a thing that have been observed, yes.
Very low chance of getting a shiny but decent for Candy and getting one with good IV's
Cool, I added you.
I have also added my name to the spreadsheet, so feel free to add me if we aren't friends.
Confused about something. I'm trainer level 37, and just recently maxed out my highest level Pokemon. Before when I would max them, the stardust counter and power up button remained but was faded out, and it would read "trainer level to low". Now my Pokemon are maxed out and that button is completely absent from the screen. Is level 37 the highest trainer level you need to be too max out a Pokemon? Or did an update change it and now I can't see the button to upgrade them when I'm not a high enough trainer level?
It's a weird bug related to a legacy issue. While the Pokémon level cap is 40, for a long time it was impossible to level past 39 without using a 3rd party app or certain tricks, because the option to power up would disappear. The power up option still disappears at level 39 to this day, though now it will return once the player hits level 38. My guess is they never actually solved the root cause of the bug, so they hacked together a fix that forces the button to reappear at level 38.
So I caught 10 shiny Eevees but I'm now 6 evolutions in and still no Jolteon. Four Flareons and two Vaporeons. FML
It'll be outclassed by Rayquaza with dragon Ascent from 3 hour raid day during the summer of 2020 anyway.
