There are some brand new Pokémon now in the mobile hit Pokémon GO (iOS/Android) for trainers to obtain, as well as a special holiday version of Pikachu starting today.
Pichu and Togepi, both introduced in Pokémon Gold & Silver, can now be hatched from eggs within the game. There are more secrets to discover though, as it seems Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue (is its evolution Hitmontop available?!), Elekid and Magby can also be hatched from eggs!
Holiday Pikachu can also be evolved into an equally festive Raichu too, so don’t stop training!
FEATURED DISCUSSION: You’re a Pokémon Professor what is your area of research?
Just caught an Adamant Totodile in a Lure Ball without even lowering its HP first! Day. Made.
Speaking of which, the introduction of Johto Pokémon is exciting! Might actually get me back into playing Pokémon Go.
Pokemon GO just keeps dissapointing me.
Me too!
Just hatched a 6ivs modest shiny popplio after 454 eggs. It’s almost perfect…it’s male 🙂
Still very nice, congratulations on your shiny 🙂
Congratulations! Wow you took much more tries to get a shiny than me.
who tf cares that its male
My perfect Popplio is a boy and he is named Lovely because he is a lovely boy and he is my son and I love him

Croagunks’ is the best.
LOPUNNY AND THAT SASSY WALK YES
anybody need the SOS call rate list?
I’d like to see that.
Quite a disappointing update to be honest…
That moment when you be playin Battle Spot
When suddenly it hits you
You’re scared, nervous…. it seems hopeless…
Wooo-eee…. You got chicken skin
Don’t you mean Torchic skin?
No, ask Hau that
YES!!!!! I was able to trade one of my Kartana for a Lunala. Now I don’t have to trade away my Cosmoem away as a secondary Solgaleo! So happy about that. Now I have my last extra Katana out for a Cosmog. That’ll be a much harder sell. I doubt it’ll happen, but he’ll maybe I’ll get really lucky. Lol

…. why?
This in terms of wtf things, is very close to the top
yup
Do you feel blessed to have seen it
heck yes.
Currently sitting at 18 Pokemon away from completing the Alola Pokedex! By far the most difficult to get will be Cosmoem and Solgaleo -_- because literally every single time i have the Pokemon they’re looking for on the gts, it’s always traded away ;~;
Don’t you have your 2nd Cosmog?
I did get the second Cosmog, and while I did want to save it for my living dex, I guess there’s always the one later on in my copy of Sun to get
WonderTrading off a bunch of Stuffel breedjects with Ice Punch. It feels great to WonderTrade away good Pokémon, even if I don’t get many good ones back in return 🙂
Yeah, that’s how I ended up with a 5IV Mimikyu which is going to start me off on my IV-breeding. It’s a good thing to do.
i wont be getting one of these eggs for a while. have 9 damn eggs that i need to hatch and there is no way i am buying 8 extra incubators XD
Get something with Flame Body (I’d recommend Fletchinder/Talonflame) and use tauros charge on Mt Hokulani, it only takes about 3-4 full runs of the road to hatch an egg.
He’s talking about GO, BTW. No abilities there.

Good tips, however!
that would be what i would do in sun but this is pokemon go lol
I was wondering if someone had a Politoed to spare?
I can’t believe I traded away my Politoed….Does anyone know a good place to buy/get a King’s Rock?
Thief it from a Hariyama.
5% chance of a Hariyama holding one, so you may have to SOS chain a bit.
Okie dokie, where can I find wild Hariyama?
And where do I get Thief TM?
It’s in the back of Verdant Cavern using Tauros to break the rocks.
Loads of people end up missing it 😛
Ah, thank you.
Poni island, running around that tree in the centre I think.
In the moving shadow/grass patch thing.
Just checked, wild Poliwhirl and Poliwag also have 5% chance of holding a King’s Rock, as does Slowbro, Slowking and Politoed.
Well that’s good.
So wild Poliwhirl eh? That means SOS during rain in Malie Garden…
Can you find wild Politoed in rain SOS Battles at Brooklet?
I can’t confirm that, but then again I haven’t look at Serebii yet…
Nope. I remember from looking at Serebii when you asked that yesterday.
Can someone spare me a King’s Rock please?
I was wondering why PJ seemed dead, I was on the old article.
Same 😛
Might need be competitively viable, but check out this shiny I just got through WT 😀
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5c6f790b6c4590a03f8edf66d64c73b93b044f9c6de40451593ee3292a7045e9.jpg
Nice.
(InB4 it’s hacked… :P)
Why would someone hack a shiny Lapras with terrible IVs? You’re too suspicious of WT 😛
Because it makes no sense to WT away shinies.
Ok maybe too cynical then? I’ve wondertraded quite a few shinies just because I didn’t want/need them
I really don’t expect people to be too nice. I mean, I would’ve traded off shinies I don’t want, for UB’s… heh heh heh.
Wait, I already did. (Pink Gumshoos for Celesteela)
It makes more sense to keep them and trade them to people you know or for things you really want.
For example if someone had a shiny you really wanted someday you could trade them one of the shinies you don’t care much about.
And yes, I’m incredibly cynical, my life experiences have taught me to be cynical.
Well yeah it may make more sense but maybe they dont really want anything? Or the thing they want wont be worth a shiny lapras that is in no way competitive? Or you just dont care enough? I’ve fallen into all three of those
Eh, I’d rather keep the shiny, shinies are pretty valueable. In all the time I’ve played Pokemon I’ve probably only acquired 20 shinies without trading if that, and most of those were in G6.
As for things being worth other things, they’re worth as much as people are willing to trade for them. For example, last night Ultron and various others expressed how much they think shiny Garchomps look like barf, but I’m sure there are people out there who would love a shiny Garchomp and would happily trade one of their own shinies for it.
Hence if I ever run into a person who desparately wants a shiny Smeargle I’m all set. I’d rather trade to someone who really wants one than to someone who doesn’t care about it and is just going to send it on to someone else or something.
Well I guess that’s just you then idk. I’d rather just wondertrade them because I like the thought of someone being pleasantly surprised by it and I will NEVER need it. If I need another shiny usually I will just hunt it myself
Or they could just think “meh, a shiny version of a Pokemon I don’t like” and get rid of it on WT again. Or worse, release it.
Ok but the point is I wondertraded it because I didn’t need it, what happens to it is irrelevant
If what happens to it is irrelevant why not just release it?
The thought of someone else possibly being happy from being to receive a nice random gift is a reward in itself for some people; not everyone is a cynic or scrooge like you or me (respectively)… heh heh heh.
Exactly, so what happens to it isn’t irrelevant.
Because there is a CHANCE someone else might get some use out of it. Maybe someone who doesn’t really care about competitive or just someone who THEY can trade it for something. Wondertrading has a chance of it reaching someone who wants it, releasing does not
Exactly, so what happens to it isn’t irrelevant because you’re thinking about what will happen afterwards.
Ok sure but that isn’t the point. The point is that thinking a shiny Lapras with terrible IVS is hacked makes no sense and is ridiculous to assume it is
Then I shall continue being ridiculous.
Pharap like…
bleh whatever
If I ever get my hands on some Pokemon hacking equipment, I’m going to flood the WT with shiny Zigzagoons with 0 IVs just to prove a point.
Well, I am too. I only compete with my own Pokemon in VGC just to be sure. :p
I’m not suspicious. It didn’t have good IVs, and maybe they prefer the regular Lapras. I just finished breeding a good Stuffel and thought, “If I hatched a shiny, I’d probably give it away. I don’t like shiny Bewear.”
I should probably add: it’s in a Quick Ball. That gives it some more credibility.
If I were a hacker, I’d definitely give a shiny average stats and balls for credibility, especially if I knew I were just going to trade it away.
The Quick Ball is so random, though. If it were in a Pokeball, Master Ball, or Beast Ball, I would be suspicious.
Precisely why it would be such a good way to flood the market with shinies.
But why would you go through the trouble of hacking in a shiny lapras with terrible IVs just to wonder trade it? Like it makes no sense. 98.99999 chance its legit really
Either to flood the market with shinies or just for the sake of knowing there’s hacked shinies floating around. Or even just because they can. People with powers to do things others can’t like to flex that power for the sake of it.
Sorry but that makes zero sense
So does having public events where people live stream themselves shoving hacked perfect IV shinies onto WonderTrade, but it still happens.
Thats a different thing entirely though. This is a Lapras with horrible IVs not a 5IV Shiny Zorua
Just passed the 100 hour mark for playtime.
I have 252 sp def on my mareanie so far, should I go full HP or full defense for the other?
For EVs, I mean.
Depends what moves you’re planning on using.
If you’re planning on learning Recover then you might want to go for Defence, but otherwise HP would possibly be better for soaking up damage.
Welp, I’m bored…
omg I never knew how fun Tetris is
Careful. You might become addicted. I was addicted to Tetris once. But I’m fully healed now.
*Runs into closet* *Locks door*
Hhhhhhhhh *Tetris theme song* hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I-I wanted a cubone….

This is garbage.
Full Gen 2 or nothing.
I will not settle for this.

How?
I don’t know I was Wondertrading
And it gave me this puke
So do you want it?
I will keep it so nobody else can have it
please why must you tease me like this
It’s my nature, I a non caring grand imperial warlord, bestowed with a perfect shiny that gets them ginys guud an moist. And now everyone wants it. Now I can milk it all I can or shit on their dreams with a satiric smile
hows its stats

well…. idk thats kinda cool
Release it immediately.
Or shove it on the GTS for something.
Why release a perfectly good shiny of a perfectly good Pokemon?
it has a assault vest too
So other people can’t have it.
It’s probably hacked anyway.
I WANT IT
EARTHEN PLEASE i WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER
What do u have
her soul will work
sure but hold on lemme look for something good
5IV breedject Mareanie, Mimikyu, Salandits, Abosls all of them…. or a Celesteela or Pheramosa with decent natures
I have a shiny Incineroar if you want it?
Never mind I don’t want to give it away.
I’m tempted to trade you a shiny Smeargle or Abra for it just so I can film myself releasing it and saving, post that video on youtube and await people’s tears.
are u upset Shiggy got shut down
Yes, but that’s not the reason why I’d do such a thing 😛
I’ve been tempted to start up my own Shiggy account, but I decided against it because I wouldn’t be very good at running it.
No i was just aksing because u always posted him
Yeah, now I have to go elsewhere for Pokememes.
On the bright side, I did manage to save a ton of the images Shiggy posted.
I’ve got a folder on Imgur for them.

YOOO YOOOO YOOOO THAT TSAREENA IS AMAZING
Hey you guys. I would like to remind everyone that the chat, originally on chatango, has moved to a discord server. It is a very user friendly platform for chat compared to chatango so if anyone is interested please join! the link is under the chat tab but just in case here it is.
https://discord.gg/jAxgj
its cozy here tho….
lol im not saying to move, i just noticed people were on the chatango page the other day but everyone who was regular to the chaatango have moved with it
We were on chatango for battle royale stuff.
My main issue is that you HAVE TO download an app on mobile, but chatango just lets you use the site anywhere, for super quick use.
One of the many reasons I hate ‘apps’.
When will people realise ‘apps’ aren’t supposed to replace websites.
EXACTLY
im not saying it is to replace it.
No, that’s just how companies act these days.
They waste a ton of money developing crappy ‘apps’ when a decent website would be much more useful.
thats the current technology we are at rn, how do you explain instagram snapchat etc. this apps are huge. apps are the big thing rn. you like pokemon right? pokemon go was made which is the futuree of gaming, its virtual reality and mobile.
I think I’ll just kill myself now.
Never used instagram or snap chat, not even sure what they are.
Websites are better than apps for most cases. Apps are basically one of the things websites were designed to get rid of. First there were programs, then people started making websites, then they found a way to make websites run programs, now people are back to using programs under the name ‘apps’ except now they’re considered trendy.
Coming from a user of both, I respectfully disagree about the user friendly part. I’ve had way more issues with discord than I have with chatango.
YOu took my cupcake give it back!
🙁
im kidding… OR AM I
Nope, that was me.
*feeds it to Munchlax*
chatango is not user friendly at all however. chatango is 1) unappealing, 2) has had a huge bot problem and 3) discord is much better looking and idk what problems you’ve had but discord is constantly updating, its the perfect platform for video game related chat
its like ur advertising lol
well yeah I’m advertising so people know where the chat section of this site has moved to.
Here’s the main attracting point: It’s CONVENIENT. Discord takes so much time to set up, especially if you’re on mobile, like many of us here.
discord doesnt take any time to set up? on mobile you just go to the login page of discord and it will connect you. otherwise you use a browser on desktop/laptop
But you have to download an app, which I don’t want to do.
Also, many people don’t want to go there, but people seem more willing to use chatango for battle chat, which is the only thing I ever use it for.
you actually dont have to seriously. while on mobile its ideal to have the app, you dont need it. i dont want to download the app either on mobile but i also use the desktop app. but thats your choice. I’m not forcing
http://i.imgur.com/rx2qMmM.png
are you sure? The link takes me to a “download the app” page.
same. Chatango wins over Discord mainly for one reason only: its simplicity. When it comes to Discord, i feel it do the most and is kinda chunky appearance wise
Or, you can use this:
pokejungle.chatango.com
no seriously. the chatango is not active anymore. PJ himself updated (or moving) updated the chat tab, discord is where the chat is now
I know, but that doesn’t mean that people aren’t still using it a little for convenience.
why does the server have different places to go
the poke jungle discord server? its to keep discussion flowing better instead of people having 100 conversations at once in the same place
the thing is, if they wanna use Chatango let them, its not hurting anyone
https://media.giphy.com/media/d3MLO0m0TOwK2Kek/giphy.gif
totally understandable again I’m not forcing anyone to move .just updating people here
yea i understand your points very well, but the Pokejungle Chatango is bascially hidden, they are using it for battle royales it seems so it shouldnt be a big deal
They didn’t want us battling on disqus, so we move to chatango
And now they want us to to move from chatango to discord. xD
Why don’t you start a Disqus channel specifically for battling, like I did when I was running the Pokelab for filling up the Alola map?
That’s also an option, since we already all have disqus accounts.
I’d say it’s the best option purely because we all have Disqus accounts and are all used to Disqus. It would basically be what we’re doing right now, but on a different channel.
ithsme nobody is making you move. again i was just informing so people knew. on chatango the other day, people who went for battle royal were asking about other users who were regulars. thats al
they literally came on chatango and told them to move
Yeah, the others did, but Luigi didn’t, that’s true.
I know, I’m just making a joke, even if it was sort of presumptuous. 😛
Don’t know what Chatango or Discord are, no idea how to use them, I’ll stick to here.
Same
