    FYI If you are interested in the stats around the odds of getting a shiny larvitar and let’s be optimistic say that the shiny rate is 1/64 and that there’s no other factor that influences the odds, then to have a 90% chance of at least one shiny larvitar requires you to encounter Cliff 150 times (if the rate is 1/500 then this increases to 1200!!)

    there has indeed been a bug with grunts since march began, you will not know if a stop has a grunt on it unless you get in range of the stop. basically you cant even hunt them without being close to them, the fact that not only they had the TAKEOVER event take place with the bug unfixed, but even a month later its still ongoingm, is laughable.
