As usual, Niantic has released some details on their next update for Pokémon GO!
This time around the latest update to their popular mobile game will make adjustments to the Combat Power of several Pokémon: increasing the CP of Pokémon such as Alakazam, Rhydon, and Gengar (mentioned specifically), and lowering the CP of other, unspecified Pokémon.
In the words of Niantic, “These changes will allow a more balanced and competitive battling and training experience in Gyms. We will continue to adjust the CP going forward to improve the game balance when necessary.”
No word on an official list of all the effected Pokémon, however if you open up the app the changes to CP have already been implanted! Check out Niantic’s official blog for their full statement!
In addition to this, in celebration of Thanksgiving, starting November 22nd users will be able to enjoy a week of double XP and Stardust!










Pokemon GO or GEn 7? Which is better (obvious answer is obvious, just wanna see if you know)
wellll Pokemon go got more nominations in the game awards so the people have spoken… lol jk
You do realize Pokemon Go existed more than S/M right?
no ik but technically sun and moon should of got nominated for something as the deadline is the 24th
100% it will be.
yea i hope it deserves alot
Ultra Beast Hunting is going great
I caught a Jolly Buzzwole and a Timid Xurkitree
So yeah if I figure out how to reset EVs and EV train these things will be pure evil
Oh nice! Are they easy to catch? I have low 60s Tapus and a lvl 71 Primarina.
Ehhhh one Buzzwole killed my Mudsdale in one punch….and he’s defensive as fack
i caught it with one ball
Then it must be a weakling
It took me a good amount of fighting
the ubs have a easy catch rate
Thank god for that.
Is Buzzwole Sun? If so YES!
Me and my friend decided to just catch rare/low encounter Pokémon, instead of progressing through the story. Shellder is soooo annoying. These 1% chance ‘mons are killing me lol.
i gave up and traded
After I met with Wicke, where do I go? Where do I get the Beast balls?
Where the heck is Verdunt Cavenr!
Route 2
OMG?! Why isn’t UB02 appearing?! Ugh Im in Verdant cavern!
Can someone tell me if it’s normal that I’m not finding Pheromones? I actinide mission 2, yet it wont appear.
Any Pixar fans in here? I know we at least have animation fans. Cause the Cars 3 teaser dropped. And it looks… serious? Gritty? They should title it: “McQueen”
https://youtu.be/E4K7JgPJ8-s
Well, the kids who loved Cars when they were 8 are almost in their twenties now, so it’s kind of pandering to the people who watched the first movies.
like me 😮
16/17 isn’t really all that close to 20’s
Cars came out ten years ago so that makes 11 years next year.
Hm, I thought it was ’06. My bad.
2008**
It looks so realistic. We really are in the future.
I cant believe McQueen is fucking dead
I just beat Lusamine in Aether Paradise, Decidueye finished it with Sinister Arrow Raid, was epic. On my way to Poni Island now. Story’s not even over, and Lusamine is without a doubt the best villain we’ve ever had imo.
Is she a villain you can sympathise with, or is she just straight up nuts? Or both?
Straight up nuts!
Cool.
Hows the game with the grass starter by the way? And what team are you using?
Decidueye is a beast, both in-game and competitve (regi thinks its the best one. It has its downsides, but needs to be used properly).
My team is:
Decidueye
Alola Raichu
Lycanroc Midday
Shiny Magmar
Alola Ninetales
Bewear
I just recently learned I struggle against bulky Fairy types, but I’m still loving this team!
How is Lycanroc? My Rockruff is meh
Lycanroc has its moments. Its had its fair share of ups and downs.
I had a Decidueye trap and take out my Ferothorn 🙁 so I do think it can be good if used effectively.
Cool team. Don’t anticipate myself using any of them except Decidueye and Lycanrock. I’ve heard Pallosand is a beast in game. Salandit will help with bulky fairies (should have used it instead of Shiny Magmar :p).
Yeah, Decidueye has a lot of cool things about it 😀
And I just couldn’t resist! XD I love those random shinies xD I’ve found a love for Magmar I never thought I’d have for the butthead xD
Wait you still talk to regi? O.o
Yeah!
He’s without a doubt the strongest person I’ve ever faced in a wifi match. I still have the flashbacks. xD
We both do! Toughest opponent I’ve ever faced. Luckily tho I kick his ass in Smash so at least I have that over him xD
Ah, so it’s not just me lol.
I couldn’t sympathize with her until the bitter end. Those who have completed the game may understand.
I dont understand. Lol jk
4 UB’s down…1 to go. Guzzlord it is time!
Hey! I was wondering if you could help me real quick with a trade. Nobody else I know is available at this current moment >.< If I trade you my Magmar holding a Magmarizer, could you trade it right back after it evolves? 🙂
Sure! Give me a sec to connect. Was away to connect to GTS anyway to try and trade for the 2 Moon exclusive UB’s!
YAY!! THANKS!!! 😀 I’ll head online now as well!
Online now.
Ah i forgot you had found a shiny! One Pink Magmortar coming back your way!!
Yeah! I’m so excited! 😀
I really owe you something, you’ve helped me twice now!
Nah i was glad to help, also I hope Kartana helped with your dex as i remember you are playing Moon!
It does! I appreciate it all so much ^_^
You’re lucky I had to pick up my siblings
I should have them all
So if I want a better chance at catching a female salandit I should try and catch a male pokemon with cute charm?
Highly encouraged unless you are feeling lucky!
This stupid igglybuff is a girl with competitive and won’t summon friends :/
I got an Eevee and evolved it into Sylveon as I couldn’t find an Igglybuff and Sylveon only requires 2 hearts of affection in this game as opposed to 3.
Yesss it summoned a male jigglypuff with cute charm! >:)
I wish I would’ve thought of that. It took me two hours lol
What does Honey do now if there are no hoards?
Drizzle it onto your body to attract Buzzwole
I’ll drizzle it on my buzzwole to attract buzzwole
It sees it as a threat and punches you to pulp
-Volcarona used Hurricane-
It could miss
-starts raining-
Focus Sash?
Unless it had TM’s there’s nothing it could do to OHKO Volcarona anyway 😛
Damn it….. Fine then what about………….Nihilego?
Hm…depends if Volcarona has used quiver dance yet..mine always carries psychic
Its raining
No! That is BEASTiality!
Hey, you’re the one reading into that! 😛
It’s kind of weird how you randomly find Probopass everywhere…it’s also a Sinnoh Pokemon so it’s not that strange.
well the dimensional lab talks about Palkia Giratina and Bronzor sinnoh is getting alot of love lol
There was also the guy who said that they received supplies from Canalave City or something. They’re really trying to make it obvious.
also the blue and pink team skull backgrounds
Palkia and Giratina I get but I thought Bronzong summoned the rain and sun via high pitched frequencies
Mareanie is such a pain to get
Really?! It’s on one of my teams! Or I had planned it to be on one.
its a sos call with corsola who is 1% or 5% depending on location. 20% if the fishing area has bubbles
Where’s the best place to get clothing? I’m loaded with cash right now.
Buy TMs first
Being Fashionable is a wasted investment
I went from 150K to 10K buying TMs and Potions/Revives.
Is it?
http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/180/717/203.gif
She’s not being fashionable she’s just showing a lot of skin
Why not both?
She has a cool personality, but her dress sense is seriously lacking
Yeah fair enough. However, I have enough for both.
I’m dirt poor. When my mother gave me the money I was worried about the game being too easy with cash, but now I’m fresh out.
Should have used the Amulet coin?
Shoot, I passed that up. It’s not too late for me though, I just reached Malie city.
Geez everyone must be GTS trading UB’s right now…took me 5 trade attempts to get Pheromosa as the first 4 had been taken by the time i selected my spare Buzzwhole!
Spare? Can you get more than 1 UB?
Its a requirement actually to complete the UB missions.
There is 1 Nihilego, 2 Buzzwhole’s (Sun) , 4 Pheromosa’s (Moon) , 2 Xurkitree’s, 4 Kartana’s (Sun) , 2 Celesteela’s (Moon) and 1 Buzzwhole.
Oh, that’s cool!
Is there any way of rebattling general trainers in the game? You know for grinding purposes.
Aww man no one wants a Kartana for Celesteela…. come on!
I’ll trade ya one
Really!? That would be great!
My FC is 0705-7097-9576 Max
I really want to know what’s up with these empty plots of land all across Alola!
I’m calling it now; gyms in stars.
TBH I thought it would be gyms post game of SM, but that isn’t the case clearly.
But mah totems!! Maybe they can make it where you have to beat a totem before you can challenge the gym.
Post game sounds better. Totem fights are fun and challenging enough (more so than gyms even).
You mean like the locked power plant in Kalos. I wonder what that’s about. Oh wait…
:p
And Couriway Town! ;~;
All will be revealed in Pokemon stars!
They obviously just saved going back to Kalos for Stars. Zygarde still has no plot dammit!!!
That’s one area though, there are enough of these to warrant use eventually.
It’s Ok, Tapu Koko was in the power plant, that’s why they couldnt open it
Makes sense.
What are the freaking chances I catch two Sassy Kartana in a row
Sassy are the best one. Make it max SpD with Assault Vest
The thing is literally paper base 31
A ember would kill it
Dude. A Water Gun probably kills it
1/625
Everyone always talks about couriway and the power plant, but what I want to know most is what the heck is going on in Jaune plaza. The people are taking about a lava dome Pokemon and that being in the plaza makes you want to mimic cries.
*about (not balky)
Ghost Girl
I BOUGHT A SKULL TANK TOP
Sorry, what was that about clothing being a wasted investment?
I have most buyable TMs
WHERE
Po Town
Which is now my new favorite place
Dark
Secluded
And always raining
Wait how do you get it?
PC
Do you have to beat the E4 first?
I just bought it, thanks.
What level should I be at for the Pokemon League?
55-65 preferably.
Uhg, still cant find the Gothitelle top in any of the stores -.-
Don’t know if this will help at all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqsDNIY2a_4
I’m writing proposals to our school administration… wish me luck! 0_0
good luck!
