9 Things SECRETLY Removed in Pokémon GO! 

People who are sick of furfrou in their research breakthrough boxes:

Remote raid passes SHOULD be a weekly reward, i dont think it wouldnt even be that broken but well we know Niantic wants that sweet money

I miss having legendaries in the weekly research breakthrough.

Thank you for mentioning the horrid avatar update. It makes me weep how ugly my avatar is now. Saddest thing in 8 years. I can only imagine Niantic did it because they hate me.

I’d say the biggest one was the research break through taking the legendary pokemon out lol. I swear I’ve gotten furfrou every week lol

They could offer long distance trading and give you like 5 per day so people aren't just spamming trades . what's the point of giving +2 special trades bonus you can't even trade majority of your friends list

10: good throwing mechanics. This past update was the worst one in ages whether the janky hitboxes and throwing mechanics were an accident or not.

Props to Mystic for dressing up in the team rocket outfit just for a bit

In person only raids are absolute trash, what about all of us who work weekends when these elite/shadow raids are. Let us remote them

Another thing that’s been removed from the game is me ever giving niantic another penny.

It's been 8 years and Arceus hasn't even been as much as mentioned, yet we got paldea pokemon, megas, etc. Why are they holding off on Arceus?

Niantic be like: Upgrade❌ Downgrade✅

I was wondering on what happened to certain things in Pokemon Go. Thanks for doing a video on this.

2025: 100 THINGS POKEMON GO HAVE REMOVED

Makes no sense how you can send gifts across the globe, but can’t trade the same distance. In the main series games we can trade with whoever, where ever.

Took all this free stuff away and now everything is in a ticket. Glad they kept 50 coins a day tho

I just came back to Pokémon Go and I'm glad to see it still has a fanbase.

im still mad and not forgetting about the 1 coin bundle containing couple of dollars woth if items

Wow. I thought Niantic was bad before watching this, but they are a truly evil company.

Can you investigate this error? Pokemon Go Throwing Mechanic Changes, Excellent Throws Reduced by 75-90%

The 40km trade distance event was after a really good event too + it had increased lucky odds. A friend and I traded for a few hours gible, dratini, etc and got close to 20 lucky pokemon

Legendarys in the breakthrough box was a big help for a lot of players who could not raid for them even new players who miss out on some of them.

Honestly, the Jessie & James should have appeared when they were announced to retire or when Ash was announced to retire. Massive missed opportunity.

2:14 i remember if you opened yours later in the day you got better items

Yeah, the only shiny one I in Pokémon Go was a shiny shadow Pinsir after defeating James first, and I purely it's from a shadow from. Making sure that's not broken in Pokémon Go.

Just an FYI to the editor, "check out these other videos on screen" part at the end doesn't show the linked videos. They randomly appear at 7:50 instead xD

@0:55 you have a ghost in your house

I still miss the legendaries from the Breakthrough Boxes

You are incorrect, they never gave 50 coins per day. It’s only 50 coin after the Pokémon is defeated after 12 hours

The day they added Go Rocket, I encountered a grunt using a Shiny Rattata in battle, but I didn't get to catch it afterward, and have never seen anything like that since. How was that possible?

There was also a time when the range around a player is bigger, I think that was during the pandemic

One thin not removed from the game: Niantic's total distain for it's player base.

I still want unlimited distance trading with lucky friends. All of my lucky friends are halfway across the country, and I'm not getting there anytime soon.

The people who got the black and white kyurem removed were given a reshiram or zeckrom with the same IVs and level, so while they might not have gone to the intended cause they weren’t wasted

You forgot one more important pandemic feature, back in the 2020 days your buddy would bring 50 pokeballs every 30 mins during community days. This also allowed overstacking so you would end the day on 600 free pokeballs as comdays lasted 6 hours

I got the shadow shiny koffing earlier this year, but it was from a grunt😂

Notice how most things Niantic removed were good classic Niantic shooting themselves in the foot over and over and over again. Normal game companies: " we patched out some bugs gave you some quality of life features and made the game more fair" Niantic: " "We made the game extremely grindy removed helpful features made everything a whole lot more expensive and removed your beloved Kyruem from your account that you invested a sh*t ton of resources into Also your ugly now" most of the stuff Niantic removed needs to come back in some way!

dang the birds will be cool to come back from the raids and i thought sid was going to say hi in this video

How much can they remove and still make money off players? A lot of these removals feel like things that wouldn't cost them a penny to leave in. Community is dying why is the company taking such joy outa that?

Trading has been available since June 2017 or July actually, not 2018. I remember raids and friendships in the game both coming out around that time, seeing as the very first go fest was in July 2017

wave 2 of elite raids was regidrsgo and regieleki

I still miss EX raids. Those were so cool!

@6:18 my guys had a drowzee is a gym for 19000 days.... that's 52 years!! 0.0 what the fuck you time travelling bro

I don't even really miss the 1 Coin bundle, but I miss the Pre-Pandemic Boxes that I could routinely buy for $9.99-19.99 and get a ton of incubators at a good price. Now? Half the time, the boxes are just completely worthless. Besides that, even though I primarily use then to hatch, the egg pools are...pretty awful. I have more than enough of everything that's been in the eggs for some time now. It's not worth it to pay real money to hatch big eggs that aren't actually hatching anything worthwhile.

i love your content, it allways makes me happy to see your videos. keep doing what you do, keep making peoples days

9:10 Well why only those places when it will be global soon.?

I totally forgot they used to give us pokeballs before community day and the 1 coin bundle.

What about the happy encounter animations in August 2021!

In 2019 i spent some time in a very remote village in Slovakia & Randomly encountered shiny articuno in the wild. Seen 1, caught 1. IV 78%

People need to stop buying avatar items. Show them that those things are so ugly we don't even want to look at them.

The elite raid info is wrong and is the reason it was removed the rare spawns and legendary pokemon spawned at near by pokestops not the gym itself and if you went to far away from the gym they would despawn because you needed to be in range of the gym for the gym bonus buff could have easily have fixed it if they made it work like the one you get from doing community day 4 star raids.

Niantic have constantly been making this worse and worse and giving nothing back, really not sure what the aim is.

why you not talking about legendary pokemon for 7day stamp reward, very sad, now only non-legendary for 7day stamp reward😅😢

I MISS JESSE AND JAMES SO MUCH, I LOVED ZOOMING OUT TO SEE THE MEOWTH BALLOON WHILE SITTING IN THE CAR.

Honestly I really didn’t care if catching regidrago or regieleki I wanted to catch hoppa but I couldn’t because I missed the event and I couldn’t leave my house since It could be dangerous

I miss when research breakthrough boxes contained legendaries.

I played Pokemon go on release, stopped when gen 2 released and only started playing again a few months ago. Is there anyway I can get the gen 1 birds? Not galarian. Yes I can google this but I don’t wanna lol

I'm starting to have the feeling Niantic wants us to permanently quit.

I got zapdoes from battling and it wasn’t even in the mystery pokemon thing

Yo mystic I’d say you got the SHUNDO luck by I got the daily incense luck I ether get a Shiny, Hundo, or glar bird on EVERY incense like today I got a Hundo bidoof but yesterday I got a bird and a shiny oddish!!!

I wish we would get Jessie and James later pokemon to fight, eg Dustox and Cacnea

I got a shiny shadow Teddiursa from a grunt yesterday 🤯

Wow I didn’t know!

Recently the notification how many times you purified a pokemon also disappeared...🤷‍♂️

About the elite raid legendary Pokémon thing, there is an in game lore reason for why it happened with Hoopa and not now. Hoopa six rings function as gateways to transport Pokémon from pretty much anywhere, in the Pokémon movie which it was featured, Hoopa summoned a lot of different legendary Pokemon. In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, Legendary Pokemon encountered at mirage spots came out of Hoopa’s rings.

Why dont they have the other evil teams in game? They could rotate them so Rocket is not the only squad to go against.

I got a shadow shiny ekans before it went away and 2 shadow shiny pinsors from james

The regular quick catch still works for me though.

that was some grunty boi stuff

Hi Huge fan, and huge shoutout to all fellow Team Mystic members all the way from India, and no I don't sound like Raj or Appu 😂 Have a crazy request. I am a level 36 player from INDIA, and recently I learnt about the "Meltan" Mystery Box trick. For me and others like me who are either new to the game or unaware of it, could you please do a video of such something special, out of the box ways to obtain some special pokemons (if any) ?

Amazing video

*sees thumbnail: I was just thinking have them a few days ago when I restarted the game...

Love team Rocket, love Jesse, James and Meowth! Props for wearing their outfit though! 🤣 I did get a shiny arbok from Jesse though. I evolved into an Arbok. It has amazing ev's. It's a very good 3* star Pokemon. It's also one of my Best Buddy's now. 🥰

Yo I just caught 2 shiny cyndiquills today on cyndiquill day, also it was in a row

Jesse & James will never return since the Ash Ketchum/Satoshi anime ended. There was a send-off for them in that last season.

He didin't mention Ex-raids, those were cool

Ah yes, color me surprised that Niantic will just casually drop a legendary, functional and all, and then remove it. It's right fucking there, leave it in.

I think the reason the first elite raids have the birds appearing was because of hoopas' ability to teleport legendaries. As for the free stuff during the pandemic, it made sense. They made it clear that some of the perks were going to disappear after the pandemic

Since the avatar downgrade I will spend no more money for the game. Period, until avatars are at least as good as once. And I spent around 300$ per year

The reason rare pokemon spawned after Hoopa raids was based on it's lore of opening portals.

Dope vid , Nerfantic has a history of being spiteful

I got a hundo shaymin

I miss so badly when you could defeat a team rocket leader and if the encounter wasn’t shiny, you could go back and check the same leader every hour for a new shiny chance on the Pokemon encounter. I managed to get 3 shadow shinies that way, could have been more but I didn’t find out that secret glitch until too late

Thanks for the interesting video.

Be back team rocket! Blast of this way😂😂😂

Aye bro, keep up the awesome videos.

I want the egg incubators research to come back. 😢

If only Pokemon Go brought these back

So how do you get Pachirisu now?

Niantic is slowly but surely killing Pokémon GO. Unless they start making some good decisions it's days are numbered.

Everyday I miss those 1 pokecoin mystery boxes

I miss the days where we could get legendaries from weekly quest completions and now they're just the worst Pokemon in Pokemon go and then at the end of the week you just get another garbage Pokemon

When Niantic gets a real lawsuit on thier hands they will lose, and we will lose, its gonna be bad.

Wow I’m so early thank you for all the tips. I miss Jesse and James they were always so much fun

If the whole game was gone I’d save a lot of money and disappointment. May not be a bad thing.

I love mystic in his costume. Lol

Niantic hates their community more than any gaming company.

Silly Niantic 🙃

Hi mystic I’m such a big fan I’ve watched you for agez

I was in Vietnam in January and I could play Pokemon Go there.
