    Pokémon Go is a 2016 augmented reality (AR) mobile game developed and published by Niantic in collaboration with The Pokémon Company for iOS and Android devices. A part of the Pokémon franchise, the game is the result of a collaboration between Niantic, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. It uses the mobile device GPS to locate, capture, battle, and train virtual creatures, called Pokémon, which appear as if they are in the player's real-world location. The game is free to play; it uses a freemium business model and supports in-app purchases for additional in-game items. The game launched with around 150 species of Pokémon, which had increased to around 500 by 2019.
    Pokémon Go was released to mixed reviews; critics praised the concept, but criticized technical problems. It was one of the most used and profitable mobile apps in 2016, having been downloaded more than 500 million times worldwide by the end of the year. It is credited with popularizing location-based and AR technology, promoting physical activity, and helping local businesses grow due to increased foot traffic. However, it attracted controversy for contributing to accidents and creating public nuisances. Various governments expressed concerns about security, and some countries regulate its use. By early 2019, the game had over a billion global downloads, grossing over $3 billion in revenue. The game also had over 147 million monthly active users as of May 2018.

    Bag space and pokemon box space is what I feel is the most worth it. Sometimes they offer that in bundles but that is rare. After that is incubators and remote raid passes. Cheapest I’ve seen for the incubators is 70 coins per, in the large bundle.

    • @pingu6028
      @pingu6028 5 месяцев назад

      honestly, space is so important (specially when new to the game or building an alt account) that I wouldnt wait till an offer shows up. Just buy them right now.
      I've only seen very few offers since the beginning. 300/350 is unplayable. Even if you are pretty cut-throat in managing the mons/items you want to aim for at least 1000/1000 just so the message that everything is full doesnt show up all the time.

    It's rough being a rural player. Played ever since 2016, lived in the city until 2019, got to lvl 44 then moved to rural town. Quit for the next 3 years and finally getting back into it in 2024, now lvl 46. The hardest part is needing 180m exp to reach lvl 50 when I'm just at 84m exp. No raid groups around, have to drive 30 minutes back into the city to even play. I'm really debating on spoofing at this point, especially when I spent about $500 on the game in the last 2 months on Origin Palkia, Dialga, Primal Kyogre and Groudon, raids.

Ain't no one got the time to drive around a whole ass city wasting gas and tryna raid 30+ shadow mewtwos. Just downloaded pgsharp to spoof for raids. I won't spoof to other countries and try to get regionals or take gyms from people but just spoof around my near by cities to do raids since it's impossible to do it around my area. It's annoying how Niantic caters to only people who lives in the city but us Rural players have to fend for ourselves.

    One of the things i find outrageous is they repriced 100 coins from £0.79 to £0.99 in the UK, which means when we buy that coin pack over here we're paying $1.25 or 25% more than Americans. Why? I don't know, they just decided to screw us over here. £0.79 is the equivalent of $1. The only thing i can think of is it was more cost effective for players to buy 100 coins over and over again rather than buy the bigger bundles and that's because it was the only coin pack that was adjusted for the currency exchange.
    550 coins cost $5 and it costs £5 but $5 is worth £3.95. I actually feel like I'm getting scammed

    I never spend on egg incubators (once every few months) and remote passes i only buy the odd one or two here and there to get the pokemon on my dex. To me - the only thing worth money is item / pokemon storage. Then save your money and get a auto catcher... miles better than remote raids or hatching eggs... my accounts gone from noob to pretty decent to say the least thanks to my auto catcher.

    • @AlfiansyahHendry

    I strongly agree about the fact that PoGo isn't as expensive as other games, it's relatively fair and that's why we need to show when we are unhappy about their price increases, so it doesn't become as bad as the Tencent games, where you genuinely need to spend hundreds if not a thousand per month to be able to be competitive in PVP.

    Here's my Rural Guide as a Solo Player:
    -Spend your Coins on Remote Raids with which u will get Barely enough mega energy for each Pokémon as u need for the first mega evolve... After this it's free.
    Also use it for the 5star Raids but don't shiny hunt or do something else expensive.
    The rest of your coins should go to your Storages and if u have a extra buck on cday event tickets

  • @mrmoose6619
    @mrmoose6619 6 месяцев назад +3

    Know the relative value to your game play as well for Raids. Spending a free pass on a Thursday before or after work on a T1/T3 is a good use of a pass, assuming you can take it out with whatever team you have (even if it's a team of 1 Trainer). Also note that as of this video, Ralts is in T1s... that's not a bad spend if you are looking for a good one and/or (XL) Candy since it has 1 mega out and another coming one of these days... Drampa is currently in T3s, so if you are still looking for one for the Dex entry or a better one, then that is fine. Just note that this one may not be as worth it on a green pass. There are also other high value mons in T1/3 that may pop up from time to time that can be worth a green pass if it's something you are hunting and/or need candy for.

    I have like a 500€ account but extremely picky on what I spend money on. I suggest buying Raidpasses & storage only. Some tickets are worth it too. Incubators IMO are NOT worth it, it's basically a lootbox. I also NEVER by remote passes because the main reason I play is to get outside more. I find the game a bit too pricey but thats probably a good thing so I don't buy stuff willy-nilly without thought.

    I don’t normally buy tickets for in game events other than GoFest. However I do buy raid passes when I see an extremely good amount in a box. I make the choice on getting lucky eggs and star pieces so I can stack them for my estimated time play in an event…Raid Day, GoFest …. I’ve done the egg hatching deal and got crap Pokémon so Ive started hatching only with my free incubator, yup takes time to hatch the eggs… figure eventually I’ll get whatever I need in a future raid ….. I really wish there was a way to just dump those crap eggs. Any hundos I do have were caught in the wild or from a raid, still waiting for 1 from a Lucky Trade.

    @Silvery1313 6 месяцев назад

    I find most of their bundles useless. I think I have used a green pass for a raid maybe 3 times in four years of playing. So, it's still more cost effective for me to just by the 3 remote passes. I end up throwing away whatever else they put in the bundle with generally, 2 remote passes. :P Again, I'm in the suburbs and it's not even possible to do 1 raid each day - there's not always a raid available to do during the time of day I'm able to go out and play. But this also makes me more dependent on remote passes because then I can sneak in a raid I want during a time of day I'm not able to go.
