I Went to a ONE OF A KIND Pokémon GO Event 

It would be great if there was a way to tell if your online friends are actively in a raid or not before sending invites

Another event not all players can take part in unless in London or the USA.. I wish they would do more for the everyday player that can't travel to places around the world.

3:19 I have never related so much to seeing a pidgey

2:28 bro manifested that lucky trade with the shirt

Seems like a fun event. Hopefully they bring these types of events to other cities in the future.

This looks like a fun event, kinda what I imagined pokemon go would be integrated years ago

Wow that event looks so cool Gyms just spawning out of nowhere lol

So happy for you and Tru!

I went to the london event. I will start this by saying yes sure it's good that we had a free event etc. But it was really not particularly amazing when you take into account the sort of money niantic has. The "light show" was quite boring. And the organisation was awful. Phone signal was a pain in the ass for almost everyone. The ticket was handed out maybe 40/50 mins before event started. The obvious thing would have been to hand them out so people could leave and come back to event space rather than standing in the cold for two+ hours. Niantic really did not inspire me to want to go out of my way in future. This game just keeps letting me down. The direction it is going is not a good one. They say they want communities coming together etc but make remote passes the clear choice from a price standpoint, and seem to be trying to force us to participate in unethical loot box mechanics. By this point niantic should have real world permanent structures like poke cafe where trainers could go meet battle with holographic tables or something.

I got goosebumps on the first countdown tbh lmao 😂

That face on the pidgey encounter lol

Awesome! Glad you got to go, and thanks for sharing!

I got a 98 Pheramosa when they were out before, so I feel ya! Thanks a million for the gift 🎁 Really wish I could attend more events and meet up with more of you lovelies. So glad you had a good time!

How fun this event looked it saddens me that all these big events like safari zones all happen in specific cities far away from most people, with no way of participating.

5:51 that wink bro

Was there yesterday! Pure chaos and madness but it was a lot of fun. The music was hype af. It was so hard to click on Pokemon on the ground because of all the gyms though. 😆 Managed to snag a 96% Celesteela, 98% Buzzwole, and 96% Pheromosa. Wish I'd found you to get one of those Singapore 'mons!

I've only seen something like that one time in Pokemon Go and that's in Milan. There were much fewer gyms but there's this castle in the city center that has stops on top of stops. like 4-5 stops occupying one space. Insane.

Niantic: "We're still fun for the 1%! "

It was an honor to meet you last night Nick. And thanks for the picture!

Seeing Swaggeron in the back in an english speaking channel is so nice

The other night there was Cele And Xeo raids, but everytime I tried to join a raid room on PokeRaid, they filled up instantly. So I washed my hands of them and just went after Buzz, Kat, Guz, and Jhi. 10 minutes til the cut off time. I noticed my research I had 7 encounters. It was all the ultras. I was so happy I got to collect the ones I missed out on. Nothing huge or special, just that feeling I gottem. I recently saw some of your videos and I like your personality and I'm gonna subscribe. Your a good guy, I get a good vibes off you. Keep up the vids.

i saw this small detail when ur trying to catch pheromosa which is a very fast pokemon the circle becomes smaller more faster!

This seems like a really fun event and I really enjoy your content. I must admit though that it is pretty discouraging seeing stuff like this done for just the small number of Pokémon go players who are able to physically be at these events. We already don’t have access to entertainment options generally, but it’s especially frustrating to feel alienated by a game that I’ve played since the day it was released. The pandemic may be over but it really didn’t seem that difficult for them to be inclusive and I wish they would go back to that.

Here in downtown Chicago is popping! 38 raids lol I love it

Love the videos Nick!

Met you here yesterday, you were really cool!

Tru's shirt though... the luck was 10000% bound to happen. 🔥

As a 420CP collector I’m so jealous of that shiny, lucky Aipom

I’m sure I can speak on behalf of a lot of players…. Would have been nice

If you complete a task preemptively and want to know what it was called you can check your Journal and it will tell you after you claim the reward.

Dude. Reminds me of the the Mewtwo promo vid from a long time ago. So sick

They need to put some exclusive events in australia other than in America

I was at the event myself, and it was pretty cool! Got myself a 98% xurxetree and traded a shiny with someone else at the event, and evolved to gigalith since I didn’t have enough candy to evolve on my own. Got myself a newspaper of the event too as a bonus!

The reason i rarely watch Pokemon videos is seeing events and community and then playing alone there is less and less motivation and waiting but i am a positive person

You got me to laugh when you made your own “excellent “😂

Been here since the beginning keep up the content

I managed to pull a hundo Kartana from the Timed Research today! Pretty happy with that.

The fact that I live in LA but had to be out of town is upsetting to say the least lol

I got a 100% Celesteela and Xurkitree from the research. I hope they bring similar events in the future to other cities.

So now we're waiting for poipole/neganedel, Stakataka, and Blacephalon. As well as their official shiny releases for every single ultra beast.

nice vid, awesome to see "choro Swaggron333" also. When the SKATE rematch?

That really is a Lucky shirt lol

Thanks to the special research i was able to get all the ultra beasts and im in New Zealand. All are 3 stars as well

Of course when Pokemon has something I can walk to, I'm out of town. lol

Someone shouting "Happy New Year" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m pleased you had fun. The London event was a mess! 😡

"THE REWARD HERE IS... pidgey."

That dude was wearing a fitting shirt for the shirt pika.

Done with the game today had no chance of getting anything done in rural Pennsylvania

I knew as least one person was gonna shout happy new year

pokemon go was live on this and i was watching it

Awesome video

I was at the event i wish I saw you!

why does it sounds sometimes like Nick is at a Hardstyle event because of the background music 😂

Spawns look wild

Heard London's event was a mess

Singapore also has the event

Would have been funny if all this hype and epic music led to a basic pidgey raid

I ran into you RIGHT before the start of the event and got so shook I TOTALLY FORGOT TO ASK ABOUT A SINGAPORE POKEMON. Nice to meet you though.

it rained in my town so all my parks wer dead... GREAT DAY FOR AN EVENT WHEN NOBODY WENT OUT!

I actually got lucky with a Shadow Moltres... I have a hundo that I've maxed out (not to 50 yet, not enough XLs for that)

shoutout to tiger games, brazillian PoGo youtuber in the video, randomly appearing in 10:42 lol

another "life isn't fair"event? cool

This was so cool loved all the little movies leading up to this for once they made an event feel really special

Event must be amazing. It could also be amazing if Wayfarer add stops or gyms to already accepted P.O.I. especially in rural areas. There's not even an "EX Gym" in my area.

My first Kartana raid was a Hundo 🎉! Good video!

Fyi, you don't need to send gifts to get new gifts, you can bin them now

i caught a 100% iv pheromosa

Bros so famous he made it to Hollywood 😁

I miss Pidgey 😭😭😭😭

Meanwhile i have 3 gyms and 5 pokestops in my whole town :(

I want pidgey back in the wild!!

This looks so fun

I managed to get all of the ultra beasts except for Celesteela which I’m very proud and happy for

This event even if the ultra beast isn't interesting in Go. The PR team game for Niantic has been stepping up. It really feels like a real invasion in the livestream news report portion

Dam what do i gotta do to be in one of these events 😅😢😂

I literally got All three stars on my raid and I some how pulled it off like my celasteela was a two star and I was like WHAT THE SHI-

I spammed at least 200 raids++ this event. Apparently majority of the ivs caught are not so decent. XD

Glad the LA event seemed to be better than the London one. I spent an hour shivering in the queue in London and finally realising I’m not going to get in so just gave up. Very disappointing :(

I'm in the us and that would cost me 2grand to go to L.A and play and come back home...crazy..it should be world wide anywhair you are

Atleast I don't feel that bad about the IV's of what I caught after watching this.

Due to Niantic’s issue with iOS 16, I haven’t even been able to play casually, let alone any events. I can’t even catch or spin stops without the app crashing or freezing. So annoying. 🙄

Niantic hype up this event as if all the UBs are their first appearance in the game lol

Saw you but didn’t get to meet you! I wanted to trade so bad :(

OMG! I was there!

I wish I was there

The same we already had? I guess that's cool if you're one of the few actually there

3 weeks ago this many peapole still play Pokémon wow I tought I was the only one still playing

i got a xurkitree 10/10/10 today

How do you get such low iv? That's insane!

not from this event but today i got a hundo Nihilego :)

Pheramosa best one cause you know... reasons.

Damn couldnt go cuz i have covid rn.

Nice video trainer tips

Looks better then how it went in London... Well I'm sure some people had it go well in London. I just had a really bad time.

Not gonna lie I would’ve told him no on the pikachu trade.

I was able to get all of the ultra beast

Dunno why, these past few months of pokemon go have been draining and boring....I dunno why, I'm someone who used to go out every day, play in good weather, shit weather, any weather really....but now I can't get myself into it, feels like the events are kinda meh, I know UBs are interesting but I cannot for the life of me get into it anymore. Anyone else feeling similar lately? Is it seasonal depression or what

super bummed I didnt get to go. looks so fun and the pokemon look insane, still trying to get more than 3 legendaries even though I have been playing since 2016 lol, if anyone has any tips to get better pokemon let me know

When I was in poland they had a research task specifically for poland and I thought to myself as a caribbean person, why event and the like never aim to us
