Today marks Pokémon GO’s first ever real life event!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yktrQAJNbAc
REWARDS UPDATE: Despite difficulties at GO Fest, players around the world have completed all the Window Challenges and unlocked legendaries! Lugia will be given out to all GO Fest ticket holders, and Lugia raid battles will start to roll out worldwide over the next two days. Since Team Mystic contributed the most during the challenges, Articuno Raid Battles will start to roll out in the same time frame as well. In addition to the legendary birds, the following GO Fest bonuses will be active around the globe for the next 48 hours:
- Double Stardust
- Double Candy
- Double XP
- Increased Pokémon encounters
- Reduced hatching distance
- Reduced buddy distance
Located in Grant Park on the coast of Chicago, Illinois, Pokémon GO Fest promises plenty of Pokémon fun for ticket holders:
- Catch a wide variety of Pokémon, including some that have never been seen before in Grant Park (regional exclusives, as well as Unown are strongly hinted at)
- Unlock the exclusive Pokémon GO Fest Chicago medal for your profile page
- Take advantage of the Pokémon GO Fest walking course, lined with PokéStops that award special 2 km Eggs which can only be obtained in Grant Park
- Cool off and recharge in one of the three team lounges, where you’ll meet your fellow Instinct, Mystic, or Valor teammates
- Commemorate the experience by snapping photos with your favorite Pokémon at the many photo opportunities around the park
- And much more!
Can’t attend? No worries – you can still take part in the fun! The millions of PoGO players across the globe can work together with the thousands of trainers in the park to complete challenges throughout the day and unlock amazing in-game rewards globally! Earlier this week Niantic revealed that the first ever Legendary Pokémon will be one of these rewards – but it will only appear in Grant Park if trainers around the world successfully meet the capture goals set throughout the weekend. If trainers in Chicago manage to defeat the legendary, it will start appearing in Raid Battles everywhere.
A special Twitch and YouTube livestream (see above) for players that are unable to attend is available to view for the latest news coming out of Pokémon GO Fest! Including Challenge Window updates, exclusive interviews, and the reveal of the first Legendary Pokémon!
Will you be taking part in the global awards and challenges, or are you one of the lucky few who will be attending the festivities in Chicago?
Also the new specials are pretty much nerfed versions of the old ones.
theyre great
samon run, i wanna play with you guys somehow, is that possible?
you just pick with friends
oh, ok.
dummy
HOT DAMN 14 KILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i thought i’d had the vertical roller fling but its SOOOO EFFECTIVE
A good ol’ simple fakemon. 11 more and I’ll hit 100 of ’em!
Waterbeest
Water/Normal
The Gnu Pokemon
They travel in packs with Raffebows and Zebstrikas. They can help the whole pack by creating Water they can drink.
Evolves at level 35 into:
Wilderbeast
Water/Normal
The Big Gnu Pokemon
They can create giant amounts of Water that can save many lives in a drought. They are the natural enemies of Pyroar. They can survive in very high temperatures.
I remember when I hit 100, it was absolutely beautiful
I think I want to revive that region more all the Pokemon than the background
Funny how I still have the entire set of my original Pokemon written on my notes
After 50 hours and 42 minutes of playing through it, I have completed my Black run: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8de25575bd42be3dc82cfd975ad0a7e430bcb26f6815c3a4592c49955d59e8f2.jpg
Galvantula and Sawsbuck = Intense approval
Thanks! They worked perfectly with the team I had (even if Galvantula didn’t have Compound Eyes)
Love the team :0
Thanks m8

Wait, I only now realise the Cloyster is male. How does that work?
There’s plenty orifices…..
Maybe it only has XY chromosomes as its only male feature which is an important one?
Wait no I got confused
The cloyster is a transman confirmed?
Congrats!
they’re all dead now. Except for Typhlosion
The poor souls let us honor them
Ayy Rampardos
Noice!
Congrats man! 😀
Thanks 😀
I feel honoured *0*

Rare view at Flaebaébaé’s pussy.
I enjoy stroking the pussy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It’s so adorable, I miss having cat pets ;-;
It’s so cute, it’s my cousins :0
So he gave him/her to you?
If so, you should truly feel honored 😉
No I’m at my cousins but he just pounced on my lap and he stayed there for like fifteen minutes :00
Aww X3
All I need is this thing https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e2088938d889f8d63995ee119172d7e66d312322477aa07ea4259d05a800cf0e.jpg
Aww pretty kitty
https://clips.twitch.tv/AnnoyingPricklyButterflyPraiseIt
i could watch this all day, i’m going to!
I feel bad for Niantic and the fans
While the event is surely a disaster, I don’t agree with people throwing bottles and harassing the hosts, it’s not their fault.
Damn, poor guy :/
Shit that’s rough
Here’s the team I beat the game first time around (before I caught Reshiram, I used a Beartic for the E4): https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8926ca62841f324ba38eb972a651202220b184f85127e3cd0a439c2a1b188dcb.jpg
And these were all the Pokemon I used along the way through the game: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3150b4a21b9afb0c1727c548d1d27f84509310320eda4646096f9cc4ad54c2bf.jpg
Niantic CEO right now:

Soooo What are some shinies youve always wanted, but just dont have?
Personally Ive wanted: Elgyem, Rockruff, Croagunk, Tyrunt, Amaura, Emboar, Musharana, Whimsicott, Scoliopede, Archen, Tirtouga, Kling, Honchkrow, Aggron, Flygon, Feraligatr, Politoed, Alola Raichu
Mothim, Chespin, Litten, Pyuku and Passimian to name a few
Passimian is such an irrelevant pokemon. Maybes it because I dont like monkeys, but its just so bad
I think it looks more like a jersey than a referee suiy
Flygon, Noivern, Ho-Oh, Litten, Stufful
Roserade
Alolachu
Mimikyu
Salazzle
Treeko
Camerupt
Ampharos
Kanto Ninetales
All of them. Never encountered a shiny in the past 12 years.
You dont deserve it.
I’m just too good for shinies.
Chandelure
Gigalith
Galvantula
Lurantis
I could hunt for all of them easily, but I’m too lazy :T
Heatmor, Gastrodon West Sea, Haxorus, Turtonator, Golisopod
Rockruff, Zebstrika, Cloyster

I had a nightmare last night ….I was wearing something like “prototype” armor and black matter trying to absorbing me ….many humanz around me shouting with one voice “Kill The Edgy Kill The Edgy ……….” Hmmmmmmm I want to kill them all but I can’t. https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/prototype/images/b/b0/Alex_Armor_b.png/revision/latest?cb=20110814134759
i had a dream where i woke up and there was a hippo in my bed…….
You shouldn’t place mirrors right next to your bed.
Daaaang lol. I actually laughed really hard at that
there’s no room for a mirror i sleep in the corner

I had a dream like that I was wandering in my university it was night and very dark I saw a big fluffy black cat but I ignore it and keep walking when I wake up I see this cat on my my bed ……actually it wasn’t the cat It’s my blanket but take the shape of that cat.
Dreams show us the things we can’t process during the day, guess you were longing for some pussy.
I guess i just wanted a hippo……..in bed…….not too far off
Are you gonna make cat jokes all day lol?
Yes, it’s Caturday today.
This is not the case I think I was kinda semi-sleep so I can aware my my room while I am sleeping …….I know u r trying to look funny though humanz.
I’m actually just a bot.
Gym leader bot? that doesn’t make sense.
Well it’s a good thing you arent edgy. You live. for nowww
Thanx for ur feeling but I am freaking edgy and I have np about it.
i know i said i would dedicate most of my gaming moxie to Splat2 but i honestly feel like playing Pikmin 1
I just want to erect a massive army of Red Pikmin and slay waste to Bulborbs
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/83d3d2fe05883e4f8450dfe2c695323fc9dd739ec0dba6e8f82a17cbf491fdf3.jpg
Guess they realized what a pointless feature it was
Im mad they did Sky battles but not Dive Battles
Tbh I feel that that would be even blander than Sky Battles seeing as Water resists Water, whereas Flying doesn’t resist Flying and Levitate doesn’t effect type match-ups
True
A C C U R A T E
It didn’t accept my Hawlucha, that’s weird
Because its model doesn’t show it flying, Pokémon have to be flying in their model to participate
They should’ve made a standing model and a flying model for this kind of stuff
Or just not put that dumb restriction tbh
I could argue that it would look dumb, but then I remember flying type Z-Move

Sitting in a tree~
It’s adorable love, deer~
The tree breaks, they fall, and break body parts. ?
I think that’s how it always goes~
Poor couple…
T_T
Well they’re both technically pachyderms……
you could’ve used a female one…..
I guess, wow… well put, i will correct the color, i just caught that myself.
What’s wrong with gay pachyderms you cishet scum
Female Hippowdon are much cooler than normal ones.
‘Much cooler than normal ones’
> Implying females aren’t normal ?
They’re different…

But both are equally normal, just different. Why does the male have to be ‘normal’. Another example of the PokéPatriarchy
it was all jok
Way to be that person…….lolz
What person lolz
THAT person lol
I’m not THAT person, I’m THE person

Leybian!
Better love story than Twilight
…
Probably…
just once let something happen for me
http://files.explosm.net/comics/Rob/couple.png
Do you guys ever put effort into getting certain types on your team? I used to always do Grass/Fire/Water trios on my team but I kinda stopped forcing it around the same time I stopped caring about type overlap
Did it in all three starter runs of SuMo tho for nostalgia, twentieth anniversary and all
nope it’s only what i want or choose to want
never about type chemistry
I thought you’d go out of your way to include a ground rock and fighting tho :0
i always do, but i don’t double up
I always need a flying a grass and a ghost type in my team.
ᴀʟᴡᴀʏs
My always has a Flying and a Water. Except Sun Moon Where it doesn’t need to cause no HMs
Off topic, but I have a rule for my teams. I plan my team for every first game in a gen (like X) and I catch whatever I want to catch at the moment in every second game in a gen (like Omega Ruby)
Well I did for XY and SM. Usually I go with what I like, but up to gen 6 I have used a ghost or a bug type, so I made an effort to use a Ghost type or Bug in Kalos (Gourgeist). In gen 7 I made an effort to use a bug (Vikavolt even though judging on its design, I would have used it without making myself). Other than that I just use what I want. And I cant repeat pokemon my trio use. So if they called a pokemon its off limits
Out of my quad (formerly a quintet) we don’t usually care about overlap if it’s a Pokémon we all really want or is really common (examples: Lycanroc and Toucannon) but sometimes people will call members :0
I think our only exception is Eevee, but even then we evolve to different forms
The only type you will always guaranteed find on my team is Water type because at this point its self explanatory. I love the Water type
So apparently according to a source Paul Ryan(PokeShopper) has, one of the blank spots on that product listing is gonna be the 3rd form of Lycanroc
Other than Day and Night? What is it? Eclipse?
No idea, but maybe it’s one that you can get in either. Maybe a stone evolution?
Necrozma influenced Rock Psychic 2 evos making Rockruff a Pseudo starter
But that wouldn’t be a third form if it’s a new line coming from Rockruff?
SM:
Rockruff (Rock) -> Lycanroc (Rock)
USUM:
Rockruff (Rock) -> Necrock (Rock/Psychic)
-> Wererozma (Rock/Psychic)
No, it’s a placeholder for a third form for Lycanroc meaning that it’s not a new Pokémon, just another Lycanroc
No #Rebel
Whatever incorrectly floats your incorrect boat
Whatever makes your weird metaphor exist
I’m confused how it’ll evolve tbh, since 6am-6pm and 6pm-6am are already taken :0
Lies
Why lies? lol
That source.
What about it? Why would he lie? lol
Dunno why. I doubt the source is actually accurately plus i really don’t see rockruff getting a third evo
What about the global link place holder for a 3rd form?
Eclipse Lycanroc, it only evolve when a eclipse is happening. irl
In real life huh? That’d be a real task lol
shit im goona miss my chance because i dont have the games when the solar eclipse is happening ;~;
No it uses NFC to detect when you’re watching Twilight: Eclipse
‘uses nfc’ https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ed7ebc878aa29e170c7eef8f9cda664fdcd13950b8af8a17ac39c6afab050050.jpg
It’s meant to be dumb tho, it is jok
I kno that
gud jok bru
wtf, this is even harder to accomplish
https://media.giphy.com/media/DsdVe5jhHWNC8/giphy.gif
Nuuuuuuu then mine will never evolve
Well can’t evolve it for 3 years then here
The thought of Unknowns and Elgyems spawning at stonehenge is really exciting to me.
If only Nintendo made Pokemon GO instead of Niantic
I don’t know if I’d trust a mobile game which is known for people acting dumb with it would be a good idea with a priceless monument :0
Nintendo knew bad lawsuits would happen cause people are dumb as dirt and do stupid sh*t
So they sold the rights to the game so lawsuits can’t touch Nintendo at all, they can only hit Niantic…
Dirty move, but very smart imo
i dont think thats why. any lawsuit against the game would be dropped fairly quickly.
What baby pokemon do you want to see? I wanna see ones for:
Miltank and Tauros (Make the connection even stronger)
Furfrou (Give Furfrou some love)
Hawlucha (Name could be Wrestchling)
Turtonator (Maybe in USUM)
Ultra Beasts (Maybe in USUM)
All of those you mentioned except ubs cuz that doesn’t make sense.
And lapras
welllllllll as much as it causes my ducts to produce bile we don’t know the full understanding of Ultra Beasts and how they spawn
for all we know either Ultra Space is a pocket dimension or a full fledged universe filled with these things
baby pokemon are completely useless unless they evolve into a brand new pokemon
Then it wouldnt be a baby pokemon
They cute
nol theyre not. They let you get a pokemon earlier in the game. Would you rather get a magby early game or a magmar late in the game
…….hmmmmmmm I did like using Elekid and Magby in my random emerald…
And at least they don’t evolve with stupid love
Friendship evo is okay if it’s a Pokémon you’re using throughout a run because you’re constantly walking around and battling with them but post game it’s a real bitch -_-
Yeah them worse lvl.40
^This, thanks to babies some Pokémon (mostly Magby/Elekid/Budew) have given me team members sooner
Hawlucha needs an evo, not a prevo.
Going with Lapras
A Prevo AND an Evo
Don’t think so. It’s stats are high and it’s design feels complete
I just think it’s hideous. I’d like to see it look better
I only want to see a baby prevo for lines that should to be connected (Sawk/Throh, Miltank/Tauros, Illumise/Volbeat, Plusle/Minun, think that’s it), maybe give some of the ultra Beasts prevos that aren’t babies (I’d like to see Buzzwole and Pheromosa prevos that are more like mosquitos and cockroaches, respectively) and that’s it
All of these except Double Pikaclones would be cool
They’re based on positive and negative charges, they should have a neutral charged common prevo
All pikaclones should get an evo not a prevo
The idea’s cool, but plusle and minun are already so.. small
Yeah, the baby would be suuuuuper weak
Skarmory above all others
And I made a Tangela once where it was unraveled Tangela Grass/Normal
People wanted to see a Komala evolution, so lets give them something even better, a Komala baby pre evo. They’ll love it!
An evo too. Or a Hulk-like awaken form
If we give Komala the two fans will enrage. So yeah, only one, and you know which one matters the most
Now I want an awaken Hulk-like awaken Komala
So I guess Pokemon Go Fest was a huge fail
Just like E.T
Sure!
In one gen all Pikaclones should get evos
Not all Pokémon need to evolve tho, they’re all just meant to be cute gimmick mons :v
But they should be cool like Raichu
Thing is tho Raichu was probably just a normal design alongside Pikachu, as they were made before Pikachu became mascot thanks to popularity
Raichu is bad thoooo.
How dare you…
They really shouldn’t
With dis pic you should
“Emerald Pirate Alex” lol
You can retype one Pokémon. What would it be?
I’m stuck between Mismagius (Ghost/Fairy, a banshee’s name means ‘Fairy woman’) or Accelgor (it’s a ninja, and it’d go well with Escalvier being Bug/Steel)
Azumarill Water
Salty ?
It doesn’t need to be a fairy
Nothing needs to be a fairy, as nothing needs to be any Pokémon type ?
Make Solgaleo Fire/Steel
No! Fire doesn’t make sense, Psychic does
‘Fire doesn’t make sense for something representing the sun’
It’s not the Sun, its working for the Sun
Represents =/= is
Solrock isn’t the sun but learns Fire moves, Volcorona isn’t the sun but is fire type
Then should Solrock be Fire/Rock in your opinion? Its just like Solgaleo
I think Solgaleo and Rock are fine as they are because they’ve already got types that fit them, but Fire also suits them
So your saying Solrock just works for the Sun? Even though it’s been stated repeatedly it is a friggin’ piece of the sun
Of all things I think it would be Lugia to Water/Flying
Cresselia Psychic/ Fairy
^^^^^^^^^^^^
You want Accelgor to be Bug Fairy?
Bug/Dark, whoops
Samurott: Water/Fighting
Or Water/Dragon (Would be so cool)
Wat
For a starter being dragon type is op, and otters aren’t reptiles
I can’t argue with Mae starter Fighting would be an upgrade
^He knows
one pokemon? but there are so many.
All of the Lake Trio should be Fairy
Alolan Dugtrio shouldve been a diglett in acloud with flying type
Flygon should be Bug/Dragon
The Alogtrio one is a redesign, not a retype
true true
No Flygon Bug types!
I prefer it to be Ground cause yes the Ground makes sense
But it’s an insect, insect = bug
but its all about sandstorms
Bug/Dragon with an affinity for sand or a Bug/Ground
or Ground/Dragon Sand Dragonfly that creates sandstorms with its wings
Not logical, how can a Bug not be a bug?
How is Spinarak a bug
It a spider. Which is an insect. And insect=bug in Pokemon
Spiders aren’t insects, they’re arachnids
Scientifically yes. But they’re still.. y’know..
They’re grouped together with insects as ‘creepy crawlies/beasties/bugs’ so you’re pretty much right anyway tbh
Yeah arthropods
Because Bug is the catch all type for arachnids, insects, and certain other arthropods.
*Antlion you pleb
Bug/Ground I can accept only thing holding back is being The “Mystic” Pokemon
But it’s dex states they create Sand storms, live in the desert and is even the “elemental spirit of the desert” these mainly direct at Ground typings
EXACTLY
Always going by looks and not what the pokemon itself is about
The Pokémon is about being an antlion, an insect. Most insects are Bug types.
What type you want Accelgor to be again? Bug/Dark?
Ye
Now I’ve thinking lately that Grass/dark would be a nice type for Deci, because Archers are assassin and stuff
Grass/Dark Deci
Fire/Fairy Inci
Water/Ghost Prim
?
I can see Water/Ghost Primarina for it being a siren and stuff.
And I don’t need to explain that Fire/Fairy Incy fits it much better
It’s just Inci in a tutu with fake wings and a wand
Someone draw this
plz dont make me
Aww
heres Dwane the rock Johnson in a tutu with fairy wings though
http://i.imgur.com/aROQGGC.jpg
Ehh, close enough I guess
theyre both wrestlers
Not dark enough ?
@StarStorm295:disqus pls :p
Hmm Dunsparce to Ground type is my best answer
Celebi- Grass/Fairy
Yanmega- Bug/Dragon
Seperior- Grass/Dragon or Poison
Guzzlord. Steel/Dragon. It would be so much better w/o that 4x Fairy Weakness.
Alright question time
You stumble onto a wayward day-care center and a sickly old bag hands you the last egg
as you you carry it it hatches into any of the Baby pokemon and you raise it you discovered it possessed a egg move
what do you think yours would be?
Riolu Bullet Punch
Gg
well what determins what pokemon is in it?
Is it based on personality?
Are the eggs all from the same parents?
Is it totally random?
Can I just pick the pokemon I want?
Can I scramble the egg?
(yeah i should’ve worded it better)
it responds to your personal aura and takes shape
oh I still have no idea. :3
Popplio maybe?
or gothita?
idk
it has to be a baby pokemon
oh..
Igglybuff or Mantyke
I’ll make an omelette
What kind? Just plain?
Stuffed with cheese and with some ketchup
Eggshellent
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cf927b730a3d9da6e1d5c37caf75c9544074ad3d16a264e671398c76bbd4a69b.gif
What do I THINK it will be? Uh Idk How can I think it will be anything? unless the eggs are designed like the anime
I would like it to be Azurill with Aqua Jet
well you could imagine and let your mind a’flutter
Ok. It would be shiny too, but a big crybaby. Azurill is the cutest baby pokemon. And its fairy= bonus points
ewwwwwwww
What did Dae say about looking in mirrors!
my face is ok, i just need to work off the vacation jowls
I think it would be the scrappiest Tyrogue with Mach Punch
I can’t think of one
A fucking Eevee breedject
If Pokemon were real…
We probs all still be hitching at each other on here :p
*bitching, fml
“LILLIPUP SHUT UP IM TRYING TO PROVE EVOLUTION ON THE INTERNET WITH ALOLA FORMS”
But harder cuz Pkms would be real and not a videogame, so we’ll get more attached to them and the arguments would be more personal
