You only get 3 spawns from a route so if 3 pokemon spawn trough/from the route you won't get one. If only 2 pokemon spawned that route it should work its not consistent
Pro tip: It’s relatively easy to get all the eevee evolutions without the name trick. Don’t use it when you need the evolutions to level up. Use the name trick to guarantee you get the shiny evolutions.
There's never any indication that you will ever need to evolve to all forms for Research, at least not for beginners. Eevee is so common and typing so important that it might even be more beneficial to use the trick for GBL and then do research the hard way.
Save the Eevee naming until Level 42 requirements. You need to evolve each one to get to the next level. Found that out the hard way. Also, save evolutions that need an item (King’s Rock for instance) as you’ll need to evolve 15 that way.
I started a year after the game came out, so I had heard of the trick. Pikachu was the only Pokémon I knew so I chose that. What I didn't know was there was a special encounter that week so mine had ash hat
The route feature is much better now. It doesn't automatically complete when you get close to the end so you can walk right up to the end. And in my experience they spawn most of the time and always around the end of the route
At the beginning the route would pause the second you left it and it was strict, meaning that if someone set a route driving you need to follow the road. The sidewalk was to far away 😅. It has been a lot better now with that
I struggled a lot with evolve a magikarp, because for some reason there just wasn’t event spawning magikarp, and it was not as common as it used to be (I played in 2016-2017, quit, then rejoined like 2022 on a new account)
with the mythical discovery, getting to certain steps grants you research for meloetta and celebi. meloetta is unlocked at stage 2 (i think) and celebi is unlocked at step 8
ditto has some seasonal pokemon it hides under (check out online), while zorua is your buddy I just caught everything around me for stardust and candy and finally got one ditto under oddish
@@neuroxploreinI caught a ditto one time when I was just getting a grimer then it said “oh?” And I was like OMG OMG OMG and I literally yelled I GOT A DITTOOOOOOOOOO!!! I was in the car.
Caution - when you are looking for a Zygarde cell and are in route be sure to "Pause" your route before you restart the game. I've lost my route and had to start over.
The name trick works for every evolution, but only once per evolution. If you want 2 vaporeons and a jolteon, you can guarantee one of each but have to get lucky for the second vaporeon
Buddy functionality idea / introduction of “bottle caps”: What if for a certain amount of Km walked with a buddy, the buddied Pokémon were to find a bottle cap where, when applied, would increase or decrease the buddy’s IVs by 1. For this idea, let’s say the Km needed to “find a bottle cap” were based on the rarity of the Pokémon and would multiply by 1.2x each IV gained. For example, based on the eggs the Pokémon hatch from, or the level raid needed for the reward encounter, would determine if you needed 20 (tier1), 30 (tier3), 40 (tier4) or 50Km (tier5) walked for a single IV change. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Charmander, they would need to walk 148.832km (round to 149) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Gible, they would need to walk 297.664km (round to 298) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Mewtwo, they would need to walk 446.496km (round to 447) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. The same math would be applied to reduce IVs for PVP Pokemon. In addition to finding bottle caps with your buddy walking, perhaps they could be found in other activities by your buddy. Such as spinning stops/ raids/ gym battling / etc. This would also be EXTREMELY rare. To avoid problems with caught 100%s, the stat changes could be visibly different than normal stats with the following: * a notation on the Pokémon screen * different colored IVs showing a bottle cap was applied * the CP of these bottle capped Pokémon would be -1 of actual 100%s or PVP IVed caught Pokémon * the 100% bottle capped would not be searchable with 4* but would have a search just for “bottle capped.” Pros: - This would make spoofing or radar services less profitable and encourages more gameplay with the same Pokémon. - Entices player to “bond” with a single Pokémon for longer and therefore play the game more often to get the coveted 100% dex. - Allows all types of players to get 100%s while also not flooding the player base with actual 100%s. Cons: - All players would have access to the best Pokémon if they walk enough - The need to catch all Pokémon would be reduced slightly If you can think of any other pros/cons, reply to this comment so we can share our thoughts about the idea and maybe someone at Niantic will pick it up! Ideas welcomed and I’ll update the post accordingly. Side note: Could it be this is why Ash Ketchum’s Pikachu was so powerful? Because Ash built a string relationship with him? Second side note: friend me so we can help each other to lvl50! Comment your trainer for so you can get friends with other’s who read this post! 6436 8135 6368
I think the Eevee-evolution name trick resets after a couple years. Or else they reset it when they added level 42(?) tasks. I remember using it a few years back, and then trying it for level 42 and being surprised that it worked. But really stock up on Eevee and evolve them at random.
you could also have mentioned that the Raid boss last ball is always either escape on the first nudge, or catch if it doesn't escape on the first nudge.
mystic7 i have a question, should i purify my shadow shiny lugia into my first ever shundo, I have another 90 iv shadow lugia and i don't know if i should purify to the shundo lugia?
To the "Mythical Discovery".. I think I'm cursed. Like I play this game for 4 years and I'm stuck on "catch a ditto". Every month I check what can be ditto and catch those but I Just can't find one and I'm hopeless by now..
@MYSTIC7 you can get 3 master balls, not 2. The 3rd one is from a quest called a little warm up. You don't have it because you have played it every day. I didn't play for 7 months so I got it.
Unfortunately, the Eevee evolution name change works only once you’ve completed certain Special Research Tasks. Other than that, as of recent, changing the name of Eevee before evolving them still will randomly generate any of the eight forms.
Been years since ive played but heres another one some might not know, the Pokémon that spawns aftee you take pictures of it in AR, its like a paint brush Pokémon
Smeargle. Doesn't need to be in ar mode. And if you see the camera icon pop up go take a picture of your buddy and it will appear. Helps to know because of the snapshot medal.
they are if you hit them with the ball if you throw your balls away not catching on purpose or going to fast then that the same as failing with any other pokemon
@MYSTIC7 6:28 What kind of mod are you using to make all your pokémon in your Pokedex look like 8bit versions of themselves. Like they're straight out of the old pokémon games?⁉️
I actually caught a shiny unknown that was the same letter as my first name's first letter during go fest 2023 in Seattle, my first in person pokemon go event.
Just so you know if you pick the pikachu as your starter you DONT get the mega blastoise charizard or venasour mega research. Ik I spelled Venesour wrong 😅
Meloetta can always be obtained... The special research is 1 of the programmed special researches that unlocks when you reach a certain level. I just started an alternate account 3 weeks ago and got that research like around level 10 or 15... Can't exactly remember which level but I got meloetta from it.
We don't has White Kyurem and Black Kyurem in this year Holiday Christmas Event but we mostly will has White Kyurem and Black Kyurem next year Holiday Christmas Event road on the way to Unova Tour!
The thing with the route is wrong! It only works if you missed a zygarde cell, if you didn't miss one, no cells will appear.
You only get 3 spawns from a route so if 3 pokemon spawn trough/from the route you won't get one. If only 2 pokemon spawned that route it should work its not consistent
That technique was when it would auto complete the route, now you have to confirm it
Pro tip: It’s relatively easy to get all the eevee evolutions without the name trick. Don’t use it when you need the evolutions to level up. Use the name trick to guarantee you get the shiny evolutions.
Even better wait to lvl 41 because you need to evolve all of them to complete the task.
There's never any indication that you will ever need to evolve to all forms for Research, at least not for beginners. Eevee is so common and typing so important that it might even be more beneficial to use the trick for GBL and then do research the hard way.
How do you "use the name trick to guarantee you get the shiny evolutions"?❔ You can't turn a non-shiny into a shiny by using this trick, can you⁉️
@@StormySky48 the Eevee obviously has to be shiny. Start with shiny Eevee, name it, evolve. Didn’t think I’d have to explain this one lmao.
@@M3TALxSLUGfr lol😭
Save the Eevee naming until Level 42 requirements. You need to evolve each one to get to the next level. Found that out the hard way. Also, save evolutions that need an item (King’s Rock for instance) as you’ll need to evolve 15 that way.

Well...too late😅😭
AW man, so i'm gonna have to do It the hard way huh?
FUCKKKKKK
Today I learned that I should name my Eevee pyro cuz I am a tf2 pyro main
9:03 Correction: as someone with 100% zygarde this is NOT true. This only works if you missed the cell originally.

I’m sorry, but grammatically, the “was” in the title should be “were” as you are addressing a plural noun “Things”

Make magikarp your buddy. 1 km per candy
I’m a casual player, I don’t walk with Pokemon go on that much. Though I already completed the research, so it’s fine
@@RayquazaGaming625adventure sync is very good for this! You don't need the app open to track distance traveled.
@@RayquazaGaming625adventure sync is a lifesaver. Turn it on in settings, and it will track all your movement even with the app closed.
Zygarde doesn't evolve it just changes it form with more cells
I'm sure you could get most of the mythicals via special research as long as you're in a certain part of the mew quest
If you are talking about the mythical discovery tasks, I just can't find a ditto 🥲
I’m on the level 50 research and I’m happy to encounter another MewTwo ❤ thanks for the info

Caution - when you are looking for a Zygarde cell and are in route be sure to "Pause" your route before you restart the game. I've lost my route and had to start over.
The rock and pop Pikachus can also change the music
I evolved my eevee hoping for umbreon not got a second julteon I forgot the name trick… 2:10 2:36

* the 100% bottle capped would not be searchable with 4* but would have a search just for “bottle capped.”
Pros:
- This would make spoofing or radar services less profitable and encourages more gameplay with the same Pokémon.
- Entices player to “bond” with a single Pokémon for longer and therefore play the game more often to get the coveted 100% dex.

Niantic's not putting bottle caps in, not now, not ever. So shut up & give the hell up.

Dont forget the Meltan mystery box I didnt know about that until last month
Meltan mystery box??
4:41 bro I got her in 2023 October
you could also have mentioned that the Raid boss last ball is always either escape on the first nudge, or catch if it doesn't escape on the first nudge.
I named my Eevee Sakura and it didn’t evolve. It says I need 25 Eevee candies.
It evolves in the Pokémon if you evolve it it doesn’t evolve automatically
mystic7 i have a question, should i purify my shadow shiny lugia into my first ever shundo, I have another 90 iv shadow lugia and i don't know if i should purify to the shundo lugia?
Does the Zygarde trick still functioning today?
