How to catch Togepi, Pichu & more in Pokémon GO!

by

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!

  2. I know a way to counteract Game Freak’s blatant anti white sentiments; have the non white characters portrayed as apes. That way, Game Freak shows no solidarity to SJWs and the fans are weeded out.

    I’m thinking…
    Kukui as a chimpanzee.
    Hau as a baboon.
    Guzma as a gorilla.
    And that’s just for starters.

  13. So turns out my roster is lacking at least one last…..ugh fairy type to honor my 5-6 type line goal
    So I’m trying to find a decent Fairy/Poison idea and I think I found it
    First Gloomour or Gloomamore from Gloom and dour or mi amore which is a young female girl like Pokemon with a a multi layered magenta and purple dress thingy with pale beige tentacle like arms and upon their face is a extremely bored and uncaring face with large eyes and a zig zag mouth and they have a very poofy hat like crest like those very fancy Middle Ages aristocratic hat
    They only have negative emotions, even if a trainer showers it with love and attention they still give the cold shoulder, they fight by lashing their arms at opponents which are laced with a very powerful toxin which causes even the most willful opponents to lose interest and give up

    Now it becomes the very elitist Malisocrat a Fairy/Poison type
    A very sullen Pokemon with a long dragging dress like cloth similar to a upside down rose with a dark purple and pink color, a thin body with the same long tentacle arms with a flowing fuzzy boa wrapped sound their arms and neck, it’s face is bored and gloomy with a long hooked nose that points upward and long red eyelashes, as for hair a spiral bun that resembles a skull

    These Pokemon perfer quite dim forests where few dare to tread, they consider themselves the most important and if more show up they try to attacks until only one remain, their skin is soaking with poisons that even the faintest touch can be fatal

    Am I the only one who wants a parody on this Ace Attorney comic where it’s now:

    Kukui: “Ahh, Malie City.”
    Kukui: “Truly the greatest city in these islands of Alola”
    Kukui: “I, for one, am proud to live in a region with as rich a history and culture as ours”

    Sun: “Something about this seems…” “Off.”

    Kukui: “Ha ha. don’t be ridiculous, Sun”
    Kukui: “Now come, and let’s all enjoy a traditional Alolan meal around the traditional Alolan kotatsu.” (With Lillie in the background)
    Kukui: “Eat your malasadas, Sun”

  23. I now have massive respect for my Pichu now. So on the route before the Battle Tree, I was leveling up my EV trained Pichu so it could evolve into a Pikachu. I encountered a Pelipper along the way, and so I had my Decidueye go first (because of the EXP Share being on). The Pelipper lives a Leaf Blade, then procceds to one shot my Decidueye. Now I thought I was screwed because the only one left was Pichu.

    With no other choice I send out my Pichu, very doubtful that it could take out the Pelipper. The Pelipper uses another Hurricane, which I thought would one shot Pichu. It survives with one HP thanks to Refresh, but gets confused in the process. Despite this, Pichu manages to pull off a Charge Beam. And then afterwards it evolves into Pikachu after leveling up from the experience

    Like damn. My Pichu was very determined to evolve 0_0

  24. The more I play these games, the more I’m getting doubts that Synchronize actually works… [lol]

    I’m 1/7 for the Pokemon being caught actually being Timid right now. Super terrible luck, probably.

  25. Ok, I need an opinion on the following cause I can’t make my mind up.
    I bred 2 Jangmo-o, Rash nature. Both have 5 perfect IVs. The imperfect IV is different for the two of them.
    Jangmo-o 1 (Lv. 23): the imperfect IV is Sp. Def, which is a really low 6 or 8 (Hidden Power is Steel, so the calculator says it’s either 6 or 8);
    Jangmo-o 2 (Lv. 22): the imperfect IV is Sp. Atk. It ranges from 24 to 30 (Hidden Power is Electric, so it can’t be more than 30 and has to be an even number). This one is kinda weird. With no EVs on Sp. Atk, the IV calculation ranges from 24-28. But if I give it 4 EVs (courtesy of Festival Plaza shop), its stat goes up 1 point and the calculator says it’s either 28 or 30.
    So, what I want to know is which one do you guys think is the better one to keep?
    [On one hand, I’m going with Rash so Sp.Def isn’t really my first concern, but I really don’t like such a low IV on the first Jangmo-o. On the other hand, not knowing exactly what the Sp, Atk IV of 2nd one is annoying. Even if it is at least 28, I still don’t feel good about it as my priority was having at least perfect ATK, Sp.Atk and Speed.]

        • Well, if I were you, I redo all my mixed sweepers until 6iv except when I need hidden power…

          But since this is Gen 7, you can fill up the missing stat with hyper training, so I’d just pick whatever has the better hidden power. I guess electric is okay for a hidden power.

          • The thing that’s bothering me with that one is, like I said, even if the Sp. Atk IV is 28, while it is good, it’s not perfect, and I don’t know if, in practice, the difference in damage output will be very significant.

          • Well, I’m not really worried about the Hidden Power. I just stated their type for a better understanding of why I have those IV ranges. I did think about picking the first one and then Hyper Train that Sp. Def. Like, if I’m going to waste a Bottle Cap, it does feel more worthy increasing from 6-8 to 31 than from 28 to 31.

          • Well if you’re not worried about hidden power then there’s no real reason to pick one over the other since hyper training exists. But prior to getting hyper trained, I’d pick #2 still.
