Celebrate Lunar New Year in GO!

Woof woof! Happy year of the dog!

From now until February 17th catching Eevee, Poochyena, Growlithe, Snubbull and Electrike will grant you bonus stardust, and reports of Shiny Poochyena are starting to pour in!

In addition, Team Rocket and Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt outfits, from the original games and Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon respectively, are now available for purchase – each full outfit can be bought in pieces, but costs 950 PokeCoins total. Further more, due to server issues earlier today, the Valentine’s Day event has been extended until February 16th.

Sounds like the best time to get out an GO, wear your auspicious colors, and try your luck!

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Which evil team, across all main and spin off games, has the best uniform?

  1. This is a new supposed leak from someone doing translation for switch games:
    https://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/34906895

    Info:
    >Battle “arena” with exclusive items
    >Regional dish Kottu is spicy
    >Region is island or pinensula named Meania
    >Grass type “snorlax” that people make fun of
    >Some type of collecting element
    >Jungle boy named Silvan is timid and probably manipulated by the villains
    >Not unreasonable to be released late 2018, announced in March
    >Starters described as follows:
    ” I heard females have bigger ears ” , ” You can tell it has fire in its eyes ” . ” I always get confused… Is it its real face? “

    • This guy is incredibly detailed. If he’s fake then he’s keeping track of his Sh!t. Assuming it’s the same person from last week he’s either telling the truth or the guy made sure to write down notes to keep up the charade. How he describes it is a lot like how I’ve heard translation teams work. Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out real. If not then gotta give the guy props.

    • Turn the sound off and do something else like watch something as you do it. You only need to look down as the battle starts to see if it’s shiny.

      • yeah and constantly hit A which is a chore, and may i remind its full odds thats a one in two million chance with no modifiers

          • and the worst part is i can’t stop…….i just can’t stop….this is all i know……and all for what a Shiny Wimpod that may or may not ever come…..i bet Star isn’t toiling in eggs as we very speak so she can make good on her end of the deal……..and i still have the stupid Shiny Celebi i originally glitched sitting in my boxes but of course i was too stupid to remember the damn Nature modifier or the sheer fact i could’ve easily lied to her and said it was legit but nooooooo I just gotta be honest and sincere since i’m so effing nice and generous

          • You can still do the shiny glitch too in silver. I’m sure she appreciates your efforts and will make good on her end of the deal.

          • yeah but it kinda annoys me how much harder i’m working, she hasn’t mentioned once of actually MMing one, meanwhile i’ve spent all my free time doing this just for her

  3. HOLY EFFING XENU i didn’t get it and apparently SRing still adds to Activity Log and i’ve spent at least 90 hours SRing since my in-game is like only 16 hours and it says 113:45

  4. It depresses me that Venonat loses Compound Eyes upon evolution, I’m loving the Poison Powder+Supersonic combination so far in Omicron and after finding out it loses the ability it sucks.

  5. Almost had a F*CKING heart attack in this Nuzlocke

    I got to the special elemental Fang Poochyena and the tail was pink oddly in the sprite when creeping up on it so I was freaking out that it could be a shiny (despite them being yellow)

    It’s not Shiny though and now I’m disappointed
