  • LoisLClinton LoisThePeasant (@LoisLClinton) reported

    @TannerJanssen @PokemonGoApp Driving 45 minutes away here to play a game would be breaking serious lockdown rules. I get there there is alot of salt for no reason like the people upset they only caught 22 -which is stupid but I don't see what's wrong for pointing out the issues that niantic gloss over

  • blue_kamex BlueKamex (@blue_kamex) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Pff was working all day.

  • luckygilly Gilly (@luckygilly) reported

    @Dusklore34 @0kolicious @PokemonGoApp The trouble is you need the platinum badge to get past the next tasks. If you haven’t got the regionals already you can’t progress

  • TomRichieSon Tom Richardson (@TomRichieSon) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I don’t wanna moan tbh, as a general even it wasn’t bad.But for me the issue I have is in the uk I paid £11.99 for this and there was so many things locked behind leaving the house! Trade, battle, raids( without paying) and it’s like I paid full price for half the event.

  • from_gugu おとめ🥟/ポケモン造形 (@from_gugu) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Hello I am Japanese. Currently in Japan, there is a problem that you can use a paid pass for free, which is a problem. And everyone is angry at this situation. Is this a problem in another country? I want to share information.

  • Luminarotaku Luminar (@Luminarotaku) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Couldn’t do anything since was working. Good kick to the face for that reminder.

  • Scoopes11 Scoopes (@Scoopes11) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Ok so basically this is such an amazing idea tell the ppl who got the shiny ditto but didn't pay that they were lucky and take THE MEW RESEARCH OFF THEM!!!! PLEASE READ THIS IT WOULD FIX EVERYTHING

  • ShadyNoira Shady Noira (@ShadyNoira) reported

    @Mikey_B0ii @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp I've got the same issue yesterday. Also bug when I throw pokeball.

  • Kamsicman Kam Kamsicman (@Kamsicman) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Nobody getting a shiny Snorlax. Lag issues. Boring event. You know, the works.

  • LukeyVee LV (@LukeyVee) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I enjoyed it alot. Few problems though. I do think the shiny rates should have been a little higher. I played the entire thing, walking for 5hours of it. Also eggs seemed bugged. 5/6 hours of walking barely registered.

  • tantepjon Pjon (@tantepjon) reported

    @Sckswithsandals @PokemonGoApp I really don't hope it will go back. Unless they would spread the event over two days, it would be a disadvantage for lots players: the raids doing internationally wasn't a problem at all.

  • andrew_ov Andrew (@andrew_ov) reported

    @PokemonGoApp can i have a promo code please?? I was working night shifts and missed the kanto event!

  • MrGodSirYT MrGodSir (@MrGodSirYT) reported

    @Itz_MegelynBarb @PokemonGoApp freezing problem must just be for some players then my game and all my friends games were running fine

  • rosiemumsy Rosiemumsy (@rosiemumsy) reported from Huldenberg, Flanders

    @PokemonGoApp much better event than go fest. However I still do not think you guy comprehend the issue for players in rural areas. We have 4 stops one gym within ten mins walk of us, we had to go out to do the research normally fine but with covid restrictions not great!

  • asandy_putra Asandy Putra (@asandy_putra) reported

    @ZickySodaPup @PokemonGoApp Just login at 6 am, 12 am, 6 pm, 6am. The james and jessie balloon will appear in that time usually for me tho

  • SamMUFC93 Sam (@SamMUFC93) reported

    @Reds86_ @PassyPass4 @PokemonGoApp I mean, looking at what everyone got locally you can tell they were boosted compared to the ones not mentioned on the inforgraphs etc. But up to you what you think lol. People expect to be handed shinies, thats the issue

  • mrhapy2 Justin (@mrhapy2) reported

    @PokemonGoApp You know... I want to say something nice, but I had a multitude of issues throughout the day. I could complain that certain shinies didn’t exist, or paying vs. not was exactly the same, but I think the fact that some spawns refused to stay color specific does it for me...

  • schwifty00 Cam (@schwifty00) reported

    @BiggieOG420 @asandy_putra @PokemonGoApp If you had money you wouldn’t be working on a Saturday huh

  • syriusz85 Syriusz85 (@syriusz85) reported

    @BiggieOG420 @PokemonGoApp You know that you can take day off from work if you really care so much about that event? It's not that it was announced day before event. You know about that in december. 2 months earlier. If you can't your day off that's your, not Niantic, problem.

  • S1ipen XSlipenX (@S1ipen) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Walk closer to the gym while trying to use a remote pass, how far is it to walk from Georgia to Japan? Telling us to restart is not a fix and we are missing out on raids, need in game chat (been 5 years) so we can let others know. Need to be able select invites before raid. 1/2

  • worthy484 Worthy484 (@worthy484) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I had fun playing he even th e only problem is the game isn't very popular so I don't know how I'm going to complete the trading collection

  • vanishiny Vanishiny LVL 47! (@vanishiny) reported

    @lauramcleay @PokemonGoApp yea but it will be hard to find a day to do it this week. with the kanto raid hours on sunday. but lets hope they fix it fast!

  • aaroncumbridge Aaron Cumbridge (@aaroncumbridge) reported

    @PokemonGoApp hi is there a issue with the Pokémon go app on android tablets I have android tablet and it won’t load past first screen tried downloading on my other one and also can’t download any ideas

  • Frizzn88 Friedrich Kraus (@Frizzn88) reported

    @PokemonGoApp **** you Niantic for a useless and worthless event full of broken promises. I hope you stop developing games

  • houser_lee Lee Neville (@houser_lee) reported

    @PonyBlazing_MLP @PokemonGoApp Very laggy and couldn’t join a couple of raids!! Not complaining any more to technical support. They are aware of all of the KNOWN issues for months and still no fixes!!!

  • Jhoosbeek Donlad (@Jhoosbeek) reported

    @InfiniteValor98 @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp Haha at first people want their free pass to be transformed into a free remote pass and when that's the case it's all of a sudden a problem. I guess people have to complain about everything 🤷

  • justrandomdude1 justrandomdude (@justrandomdude1) reported

    @IrwinWhite4 @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp They'll fix stuff when you clowns stop buying passes from them and wasting your money on them. As long as the cash flows in they don't care.

  • Jardonian_ ThatBaldJardon (@Jardonian_) reported

    @tantepjon @PokemonGoApp Yeah that is a you problem, I played for 4 hours and got 13

  • halfxwaygone Michelle (@halfxwaygone) reported

    @BoonLiOng1 @hebertvs @PokemonGoApp Huh that sucks, sometimes that response is delayed some but i’ve never had a problem

  • sYs_Ramos Jonathan Myth Ramos (@sYs_Ramos) reported
