I burned through 100 Rare Candy for this.

I have an invite for tomorrow and just got one for next weekend, they'll be my 8th and 9th ex raids.

The interesting thing is they're invites for different gyms in the same park separated by maybe 100 feet, which I'm pretty sure was determined to not be possible previously.

Another EX Raid invite here too. I'm on a roll with these things after such a long drought beforehand.

Why wouldn't it be possible if the raids aren't on the same day?

That's was proven wrong a long time ago. The gyms might be next to each other, but they are in different cells.

Huh?

If you have an EX raid scheduled for tomorrow, then that means you got the invite days earlier. Today's invites are for April 14th.

It means that both invites are out at the same time, the EX raids haven't happened for either gym. A pending EX invite is supposed to preclude other gyms in the same cell from getting an EX invite.

This hasn't happened in the park before. There are seven gyms in the park, five of which have had EX raids but always on the same biweekly schedule and always only one of those five gyms. Now we have EX raids in consecutive weeks.

I've encountered one Unown, and I didn't catch it because I was wearing a Pokémon Go Plus and tried catching it using that without knowing it.

Man, fuck the Pokémon Go Plus.

Lol and I have yet to see a single Unown in the wild. With radars dead, I don't even stand a chance, the only 2 that spawned relatively close to my house did so while I wasn't anywhere close...

You're wrong on this. Just because Gym 1 is hosting a Ex raid doesn't mean Gym 2 or 3 in the same cell can't host the following week. Now if what you meant was Gym 1 is hosting again next week then I would agree that something is wrong. Otherwise there is nothing out of the ordinary as this has been happening for quite some time in my area over the past months.

What I don't think people realize or understand is that the new ex raid selection is comprised of multiple layers of RNG. The current selection process is along the lines of: Random s2 level 13 cell selection -> Random Gym Selection -> Random Lobby/Trainer selection. Obviously there are still a few unknown variables such as Gym Badge level, Lobby size, time etc but the jist of the system is pretty straight forward.

New event starting on the 10th, celibrating Kanto region. Not much else details yet. Though a lot of gen 1 Pokémon sprites just got updated.

I get the weird MISSINGNO bug a lot when trying to catch a quest Pokemon and it wouldn't let me get a stamp yesterday (I think I got 2 the day before), but nothing as bad as yours.

Got my first Latias today, in my first raid. Went over to a second one, that we failed to do with 4. I used that to farm losses until some more people showed up. Did fail to catch him, but at least now I have four raids for Mew. Should be able to farm the 6 remaining tomorrow I hope.

I still can't find Ditto or Ghost-types for my current missions. I've been catching all the rodents, Pidgeys, and Whismurs, but still nothing so far.

I'll do Duskull and Gengar Raids if the weather is not Windy, since I have Latios. I'm 1/4, which is not good, but this Legendary is not desirable to me either.

I won't be getting Mew quickly, but the next steps will be a breeze in comparison to where I'm at now.

Looks like the gen one event will release all Kanto shiny Pokemon.
Don't assume that just because they're in the network traffic.

Shiny Mew was added to network traffic
Shiny Latios/Latias were added to network traffic
All Gen 3 Pokémon are added to network traffic.

They are not available

By adding them all, they can do events where they drop the shiny ones and not have people datamine the shit out it it, as we saw with the Poochyena event

Really?? Was that all over or just in certain areas?
All over. But it was not that special, just increased spawn of dog Pokémon.

Did my third Mewtwo raid. First time I didn't catch it. Also didn't catch 2 Latias but I didn't mind that. Got a Tyranitar though.
But what really pisses me off is that my loot from raid is complete dog shit the last couple of weeks. No TMs and hardly any rare candy. I'm starting to get real mad.

You might be right about that, seems they just added gen 2 as well. Might just be prep for a later date, but I still hold out for the gen 1 event we will see some of these if not all the gen 1 shiny.

What's going on with this Kanto event that is meant to happen today?

https://pokemongohub.net/post/news/kanto-week-april-10th-kanto-event-announced/

  • The event will run from April 10th to the 16th for UTC (11th to 16th in Japan and other later timezones), most likely starting at 1pm PDT.
  • Kanto starters will have boosted spawn rates, shiny possibility? Potentially high! Hopefully more news on this later.
  • Double transfer and catch candy. You know what this means everyone, and the fact that it runs over Community Day will give you the chance to get even more candy for every Mareep you catch and transfer! That is a lot of candy! (Plenty of time to stock up on evolution fodder for a lucky egg use as well).
  • Snorlax and Aerodactyl raids, both of which we have seen in the past, click the names to check out our raid guides! (Not sure if there will be more Kanto themed raids yet, nor if any of them will feature a shiny).
  • Special boxes featuring raid passes.
  • Also an encouragement for trainers to get their Kanto Medal to Gold to progress in Mew quests (seeing as this event may be to cater to the newer or returning players).

Hoping they bump up Ditto spawns. Literally the only thing stopping me from getting a Mew in the next few days.
