  • Thejnn1 Thejnn (@Thejnn1) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Sucks for an online game to have such a mediocre PVP , GBL is beyond broken RN Error finding match. algorythm, lag bugs glitches freezes and so on... Unattainable rankings because of obvious sabotage and rigged leaderboards . That's it! Let's all file a lawsuit guys!!

  • Slayer69Kin KinSlayer69 (@Slayer69Kin) reported

    @NianticHelp Hi thank you for your reply but my mobile device did it with more apps than just the pokemon go app. I really do appreciate your concerns and do appologise for not looking into the situation further before contacting. The problem has been fixed and I can now Collect them all

    @ReFa @FrnoCosmic @PokemonGoApp God this is embarrassing. "I'm gonna argue against everything you say" blah blah blah "I have 2.5k shinys and everything you say, I got a problem with!" Get a life dude let people be upset niantic doesn't listen to people, let them voice their opinion and just stop 🛑

  • benzmomepch Benzmomepch (@benzmomepch) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I am so friggin’ tired of the GBL matchups being so completely lopsided. Fix it!

  • SierrasTweets {S}ierra (@SierrasTweets) reported

    More focus on arms today, but steps racked up between my normal walking & the Pokemon GO community day. 14 mile step distance total 10 sit ups 30 minutes working out with weights

  • ReFa Remco ✨2.5k Shinies✨ (@ReFa) reported

    @NotRyan666 @FrnoCosmic @PokemonGoApp As I stated in several of my comments, areas that were affected with widespread lag and server issues should get a makeup with spawns. And for sure that wasn't the whole world.

  • Skelz__ Do what thou wilt. (@Skelz__) reported

    @tsang29 @PokemonGoApp Look dude. Move on. You bought it, you know the history of these events. Lag, network error for millions of players all sharing Niantic servers. Just learn and move on.

  • LeafPrecious PreciousLeaf (@LeafPrecious) reported

    the pokemon go when shiny checking the pokemon makes it hard to run have to tap it very hard now or something FIX YOUR GAME this is annoying and i dont like this or want to waste my ***** on pokemon dont need its horrible even restarting the game does nothing unless my internet

  • CurvyShorty3191 TheKristenator (@CurvyShorty3191) reported from New Orleans, Louisiana

    Anyone else had #gobattleleague in @PokemonGoApp just crash where it errors out, says times up, then the grassy background randomly keeps showing up even when you don't click the battle section? I can't even play sigh or try to finish a set

  • Thejnn1 Thejnn (@Thejnn1) reported

    @PokemonGoApp PVP community day pokemon but PVP itself is crappy , Neverending Error finding match. after Error finding match. And the match itself is laggy and buggy and glitchy . Weak connection you say ... But the truth is Weak servers Your PVP system is the shame of all pkmn games ever!!

  • IrishJPBrowne Irish RichieBrowne (@IrishJPBrowne) reported

    @Tyrone86102225 @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp Same problem here while catching a raid boss

  • POGOAyrshire MA570N (@POGOAyrshire) reported

    @CurvyShorty3191 @PokemonGoApp "Error 6 has occurred" This actually made me stop playing GBL.

  • NotRyan666 Ryan Whiles (@NotRyan666) reported

    @ReFa @FrnoCosmic @PokemonGoApp Some people couldn't play the event properly, server issues and trouble completing tasks, my friend couldn't even get the shiny new research because it wouldn't let him complete one of the research quests. I think that's the real issue. Who cares if people got it for free.

  • Skelz__ Do what thou wilt. (@Skelz__) reported

    @Paulhallford1 @PokemonGoApp Not everyone had this experience. Sounds like a cell provider problem.

  • Grimmsterk Kendrick Welsh (@Grimmsterk) reported

    Wow. So lost 2 shinies from yesterday's Pokemon Go community event from a lag that happened today. One that apperently got beat at a gym so bad it went from shiny to regular and another lost for some reason when I caught it at 12 minutes to spare. Fix THIS BS!!!!! @NianticHelp

  • Garyoconnell16 Gary o connell (@Garyoconnell16) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Let me know when you fix your garbage pvp everytime I get them down to last pokemon game freezes then comes back on just as they their about to win or is there some sort of way players are manipulating connections in their favour?

  • Skelz__ Do what thou wilt. (@Skelz__) reported

    @SredniEel @iam_Brahms @PokemonGoApp Oh man...I once held down a gym in Puerto Rico (went herocross hunting one summer) and. I made it to 3 weeks and then out of nowhere it came back but I Couldnt revive him(golem) and still have it dead. Never to be revived due to an unknown error

  • skreemus Skree (@skreemus) reported

    @NianticHelp Is there a way to know if my XP is broken in @PokemonGoApp ? I heard getting from 39 to 40 was hard, But after a com day grind with lucky eggs on all day and only move up 200,00xp Man tipping hand Or is it that much of a Grind? #PokemonGo

  • Thejnn1 Thejnn (@Thejnn1) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Fix your ****** PVP . Weak *** servers pfff!

  • mikestinctively 𝕄𝕀𝕂𝔼 - 🔮 (@mikestinctively) reported

    @Corvangel1 @PokemonGoApp While there are certainly issues with some pkmn being OP (Swampert #1, Politoad with it's new water attack is crazy), I'm talking about bugs like lag, double-input that cause another atk instead of firing your CA, atks *sometimes* happening between CA, UI give during CA, etc.

  • mattduarte11 Matthew rocha-duarte (@mattduarte11) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I evolved like 4 and still didn't get talonflame with incinirate did anyone else have this problem?

    Did they buff Go Rocket Grunts in Pokemon Go or something? I've had no problems beating them before, but this last week they are wrecking me, I have so many fainted pokemons and no revives left :(

  • daredevilreborn James G (@daredevilreborn) reported

    @PokemonGoApp hey y'all could you fix what ever just happened to me 3x in a row... Went to face Cliff and each time my first pokemon fainted, I couldn't attack with my 2nd or 3rd pokemon but Cliff sure could attack me.
