@@jttorrey752 that's true, and he should also play in a remote area with like 4 pokestops kilometre away from each other and f2p to experience how hard it really is, just to give a view to us players
why would being not free to play help getting shinies tho? maybe a couple more because every like 20 raids you get one but it really doesnt make any difference except youre a huge spender and just go on raids all day every day
@@No__Vanity You can buy stuff free to play players have to work for like the rocket radar. They can grind for the shiny shadow mons while free to play gotta work for it. Also if you buy stuff for events both irl and in game,you have more opportunities for shiny Pokémon.
Here’s a tip to do “remote” raids as a f2p player. Find a raid that isn’t too far away, but can’t be accessed. Make sure you have either a premium or free raid pass. Jump out and immediately hop back into the app, then spam the join raid button. It may take a few attempts PS: the raid must be 200m or less near you
This used to work for me every time like clockwork, but not anymore as of about 2 weeks ago. Guess it depends which android phone/update you have. Also wanna note that this has never worked on IOS in my experience.
I've been kinda lucky that i have a gym next to my route back from school so i can continuosly re take control, and in a rural area i always get the 50 coins, still takes a bit tho
Would this be a fair representation of f2p as when raiding your using mons you have previously paid for. A f2p player won't have such strong mons to raid with?
Tyranitar is pretty easy to obtain from raids and is really weak to machamp, which is pretty easy to obtain f2p since you get free evolutions from traided machoke
I've been a free to play player since I started the game 8 months ago. I am currently level 36, I have visited 3,787 pokestops, gained 8.8 million xp, walked 577km and caught 7,546 pokemon
We would appreciate more if u had made a new account coz it sucks to have limited poke balls and always running out of item space and Pokémon storage also the 50 coins limit and hardly a remote raid after getting lucky with 4 day in a row 50 poke coins not a hate comment just speaking the truth
@@PebbleEbbleI mean if u don’t get caught it probably can be worth it but they’ll most likely catch on and probably ban tf outa u and you’ll lose all ur good Pokémon u already have so that’s the issue
I've been free to play ever since a little before the remote raid nerf and I tell you it's not as bad as people make it out to be but I understand in certain aspects that people are also royal areas and it's a lot harder. But I use my gym coins only too use on more item storage or upgrade pokemon storage and that's it. I use daily raid passes on raids so I don't really care for remote anymore. But being free to play always bless me with allot of shinies that I can't even count I'm over 1450 and been only been playing 2 years which isn't a bad shiny count. Field researches has been blessing me lately but eggs I don't even bother I just use my normal incubator I get and call it a day not even on hatch days I hate hatch days and the bundles are absolutely horrendous so i dont even bother.
Buying the bundles though will almost always be better though than buying specific shop items outright. I spent $100 on pokecoins a few months ago, purchased off the web store so I could get bonus coins and I think i bought one or two incubator boxes (really wish I waited for the box with 100 incubators for 7000 coins). Other than that I bought remote passes a few times out of the boxes and I still buy pokemon and item storage of course. I still have just over 5000 coins left, tbh I've never been much of a raid guy as I think they're too out of the way and I don't like staying in the same place, especially out in the open, so I don't get to use my free raid pass every single day (I wish they gave solo raiders the option to ready up instead of only when in a group). Also it doesn't seem like many people play where I live and I don't really have any friends who play like I do so trying to do legendary raids usually just ends up in me getting frustrated by trying to invite people remotely and it not working (no one joining). Other than that I do play the game pretty hard and lately, despite having the coins in my account, I have been trying to play F2P. I still have a handful of incubators that I am saving for 12ks and special event eggs
Hard to call it Free2Play when the account already has all the item and pokemon space. I still strugle with what to transfer, sell and keep in all my inventories. All the gym coins definitely go to space
Hey mystic! I really like you videos but what I think is cooler is if you make a whole new account for a free to play account so you can experience it like an actual free to play player. It would also be awesome if you make it a series.
I am mostly free to play. I use an auto catcher and buy GoFest tickets, but that's it. It can be a little frustrating, but you learn tricks and techniques to stock pile rare items. That's what really hurt you. You couldn't access any of your existing inventory of items, when, in reality, as a L50 346M XP player, we are in the same ballpark rank wise, and I have enough coins and items to use them when necessary, but maybe not when I want to. One point you got sort of wrong is that getting your 50 free coins and gym work is way more of a focus than you let on.
As someone who's never paid for coins (only earned them) I honestly really enjoy the game. I also live in a pretty remote area, so I don't have pokestops within walking distance and that was frustrating at first because I would run out of balls so easily- now I can stock up before going home with more item space, but Ive been playing since the very end of august 2022 and I'm level 38, almost 39. I might pay for coins in the future, but its absolutely possible and fun to play the game without paying.
the only thing I am displeased is that during any special event days or in general raid WE 'free to play' only get to do 1 raid which sometimes is really frustrating like when the Mega Rayquaza day I did 2 raids as I didn't use the raid pass from the previous day so got only 2 Rayquaza while others enjoyed hunting for shiny and hundos I hope WE 'free to play' gamers in PokemonGo get atleast 2-3 raid passes per day so we can also enjoy the satisfaction of completing a raid day and have atleast some memories in our Acc
I was free to play for years, got most of my cool stuff just playing for free, and was ok with only being able to do so much back then. Unless your banking, lots of money in RL and it's overflowing like mad, just stay free to play. Spend your money on better things.
Yah free to play is still fun, although the only thing i spent money on is pokemon and item storage cause i dont want to be bothered with inventory management every two seconds
I've been kinda lucky that i have a gym next to my route back from school so i can continuosly re take control, and in a rural area i always get the 50 coins, still takes a bit to get enough for even a remote raid pass
The difference is a 14 and 15 in hp is like 0.4 but the hp can’t be something like 0.4 so ya in a way the lucky Frillish is basically identical to a 100% one
You mean you didnt spend any money for 7 days after you spent thousands on the game and already had enough stacked to not need to spend anything for a while, yeah great work 😂
also do this again, when you are not in a spot where a lot of players are there. try a city where it’s hard to do 5star shadow raids. and have not as the best counters for each raids. a brand new account then too
Now try playing in a rural area
its so dam annoying ngl

On a lvl 50, several years old account that is worth several 1000 dollars anyway
Free-to-play PoGo can be frustrating, but it can also feel incredibly rewarding!
take a shot everytime mystic says “free to play” this outta be fun
He forgot he can't use anything in his bag except whatever he gets from gifts research or stops or gyms....like js I run out of balls constantly
The fact that you have more berries combined than I have storage space in my ftp account of 2 years is so painful to look at
i feel you, and the number of hundos some people have... more than my storage space😭

uhh you do know that you can manually resign the battle in go battle league?
I dare you to start free from a NEW account. PS, love your channel, love the content, keep it up 💪🏽
I mean free to play would be lit if you're starting with Mystic's account. Lol

Would this be a fair representation of f2p as when raiding your using mons you have previously paid for. A f2p player won't have such strong mons to raid with?

How does it feel to go from pay to win cringe to free to play cool person.
Dude the main problem for free to play is the limit on Pokémon allowed to save and items allowed to carry.
Free to play is really easy, though. Everything comes for free in time in Pokemon Go.
I am mostly free to play. I use an auto catcher and buy GoFest tickets, but that's it. It can be a little frustrating, but you learn tricks and techniques to stock pile rare items.
