JUNGLECAST: The PokéJungle Podcast?

As some of you who follow us over on Twitter may know, we recently asked if our readers would be interested in a PokéJungle podcast. We’ve discussed some sort of podcast amongst stuff for a while know (some of our long-time visitors may even remember our previous attempts/failures) and we feel it’s definitely something we want to make happen.

As with everything on PokéJungle we always have our readers in mind, so if it’s not something they’re interested in we don’t like to put it out as content! So, this is where you guys come into this. Simply: are you guys interested in a podcast from the PokéJungle team? If you are interested what sort of things would you like us to discuss and mention in the episodes? Who would you like to have a part in the podcast team? The more input you guys give us the better we can make the eventual output!

We have already spoken about discussing news, rumours and featuring an ‘Ask PokéJungle’ segment in each episode, but what really matters to us is what you guys are most interested in. If you have any questions feel free to voice them below too!

We would really appreciate any amount of input our readers can give us in the comments below and we look forward to reading through them!

          • Yick get them away
            I’m so tired of seeing Hoenn Pokemon
            I’ve seen only Hoenn fodder, I swear Wondertrade better be better in Sun and Moon

          • I’m curious about how this figure was developed. I’m nearly 100% certain that the probability depends on how many pokemon you encounter. Block of math incoming (that nobody will care about…)!

            For example, imagine that there are only 3 patterns and that the probability of getting a shiny is 1/5. The probability of getting a shiny spinda of a certain pattern is 1/3*1/5=1/15, and call this p. The probability of getting a non-shiny spinda of a different or same pattern or a shiny spinda of a different pattern is 1-p, and call this q.
            Let’s say you run into 3 pokemon. All the possible outcomes are: qqq, qqp, qpq, pqq, qpp, pqp, ppq, ppp. Of these, we’re looking for those that have p appear twice or more, which is 4 out of the 8. Thus the total probability is qpp+pqp+ppq+ppp = 3qp^2+p^3. This is approximately .013%
            Let’s say you run into 4 pokemon. The possible outcomes are: qqqq, qqqp, qqpq, qpqq, pqqq, qqpp, qpqp, qppq, pqqp, pqpq, ppqq, pppq, ppqp, pqpp, qppp, pppp. Of these, again, we’re looking those were p appears twice or more, which is now 11 out of the 8. The total probability is qqpp+qpqp+qppq+pqqp+pqpq+ppqq+pppq+ppqp+pqpp+qppp+pppp=6q^2p^2+4qp^3+p^4. This is approximately .024%
            A better way is to find 1-(probability that p appears once or less). For running into 3 and 4 pokemon, this would be 1-(q^3+3q^2p) and 1-(q^4+4q^3p). For finding a pokemon n times, the probability is 1-(q^n+nq^(n-1)p)

          • I care 🙂 Roughly how many patterns are there (do we even know if that info was out?)? Can Spinda appear in hordes?

          • Part of me wants to take this as a challenge, but the other part of me wants to live life normally.

          • No challenge I know O can’t do it I can’t even find regular Shinies without giving up

          • now calculate 5 shiny spindas with the exact same pattern… in 1 horde. now that’s a challenge! any takers?

  1. Ughhhhhhhhh Wonder Trade is being cheap tonight
    Just lame Hoenn Pokemon and I got a whole box and a half of Scatterbugs to unload

    • Me I GTS things for the pokedex evolve them breed them get them to decent level if no evo or other thing give good moveset and either put them for GTS or just Wonder trade for more Pokemon to raise I really am a Breeder

      Reply
      • I just unload my leftovers from breeding
        Keep and bank the good stuff, and just plain get rid of the backwash

        But alas the activity in the world of Pokemon is rather low

  2. So I have been finding Omanyte, on multiple occasions, around the dorms on my college campus. Does anyone else agree with me that he is trying to lead students down the path of the glorious Lord Helix?

  3. A tip for new GO players I have found: Don’t level and evolve Pokemon in the early levels. You’ll just waste your stardust and candy, and you’ll find higher CP Pokemon in the wild. I spent a ton of stuff making a good raticate and now I find more powerful rattata everywhere.

    Reply
    • To be honest, I don’t do GO for the gyms/battling, I just do it for collecting Pokemon and I evolve the ones I first caught regardless of their CP.

      Reply
    • I would still evolve them as they are good source of exp, especially if they are abundant. But definitely don’t power them up.
      A good tip to power level is capture a bunch of weak pokemon that are easy to find and take 12 candies to evolve (pidgey, caterpie, weedle) and then use a lucky egg before you evolve them. This gives you 1000 exp per evolution.
      The higher your level, the better the pokemon you find (higher cp, more uncommon pokemon)

  4. Alright absolutely nothing of interest or significance occurred today
    Except my Sap Sipper Miltank
    Calling it a night

  5. What kind of topics would be discussed in a junglecast? Is it open or is more on the lines of reality? Possible explanations of certain things (ie evolution – mega or not, lore, inspiration, etc)?

    Reply
    • It’d be anything and everything! Think what we publish on the site, but in a more freeform chat. 🙂

      We’re open to suggestions on things to discuss too!

      Reply
      • Awesome, I’ve always felt certain things needed some in depth explanation, such as the science behind evolution (Mega or regular).

  6. finally out of work…. 4 people short today, I had to pick up 3 extra areas. im super exhausted. quick someone say something funny

  7. now i wonder why my phone wont load pokemon GO? i have an android with the highest possible firmware… maybe it wont run for me because i hated on it so much lol

  8. never actually answered the topic question lol. my thoughts:
    I think this would be a neat idea. depending on how often the podcast is, it should be fairly easy to come up with a discussion, especially with sun and moon on the horizon. im not so sure who the team should be, but I feel it should at least be a 3 person team. To make this very special to the Pokejunglers, I feel you should regularly have them as guests to join in on the discussions, chosen at random or sort of random with the vote system. anyways, these are my thoughts. I would give anything to speak to someone about pokemon over the internet for a lot of other fans to hear, that would be a dream come true 🙂

    I swear to the numerous dark deities that I worship that if one of these isn’t ground, rock, or fighting or physically oriented
    I will be very very upset

  11. Now it done says that official sites are going to have this info
    So we might just be getting hug bear and puppet names and abilities
    And quite possibly super attacks

    Or they could be totally cool and sidewind us with something totally new
