tbh I watch other Pokemon Go videos for fun but when I want legitimate information, everything to be 100 percent accurate and credible Trainer Tip videos are the first ones i'll click on
From my point of view, this guy (forgot your name dude), is the real adviser for pokemon players, he gives real tips, real information and actually test things in the best possible way, all other youtubers may try but fail in comparison to him, so, im I suggest to everyone whos not suscribed to do so, because this guy is gonna tell you the best ways to improve your game.
I came to the conclusion that gym battles are dumb... A gym could be prestige 8 and I can just come in and take it. All it takes is time revives and potions... Anyone could do it. They should make gym battles like this... The most pokemon allowed in a gym should be 6 then the person battling has 6.. 6v6.. Either you beat the gym or you don't.. If you don't all you get is xp.. It would make it harder that way gyms aren't switching back and forth every 10 minutes.
I think they should do it like they did in the real games, round based. So you need a tactic to fight a gym, not just fast finger tipping. And if somebody could only fight a gym once a day, it would be much harder to take a gym down.
i patiently wait for each episode on this channel because no other youtuber playing pogo is worth watching. only true honest advice and solid gameplay on this channel. no cheesy gimmicks. no fake excitement.
I have so much respect for this person he never uses clickbait stays up all night to edit videos and he puts up daily videos to help people like me who doesnt know alot about pokemon combat. Thx Man keep it up :)
00:05 You just referred to most Pokemon go RU-vidrs! Thanks for your videos! They are very informative and helpful! This video was helpful. Pokemon GO hasn't still been released, so I'm waiting. By the way, would you suggest using apk's for playing this before its official release?
+BRITENESS Actually it means alot, because EVERY Video has dislikes no matter how good the content, but this guy has an SUPER low dislike to like ratio which means lots of people like his content
This channel is easily the best for pokemon go content. Love the comment in the beginning of this episode about Mewtoo clickbait, absolutely hate it myself. About Lapras then; saw the shade of a Lapras in the nearby function this morning at home, both me and my fiance went out to catch it but we both missed it because of the awful tracking system.
I just want to say thank you for providing quality content as oppose to clickbait. I love how you have an advanced series and a new player series so new players don't get confused and advanced players don't waste time.
One additional thing to consider is that the 5% increase is only an approximation. For pokemon with lower base stats the IV is more impactful then a pokemon with high base stats. The ~16% max vs. avg is only a rough guess a detailed spreadsheet that compares your IV's to max or avg would better tell you if the IV's on a specific are worth keeping or discarding.
Have you seen Destiny youtubers? The game died a long time ago but they still make content.? Even if Pokemon Go dies he's either gonna keep doing it or move to a different Pokemon game.
+Saltedalmond unfortunately you can't go with the majority. Most people thought (and some still think) that you could recover the thrown balls, even being obvious that you can't do it.
It's probably situational. Play by yourself a lot? Incense as you can force one spawn a minute. Play with friends and can obtain a bigger defender bonus? Get lures. Planning on going on an evolution spree (30+ evolutions). Lucky egg. Have a lot of pokestops nearby and like hoarding items? Backpack upgrade. Want to complete the Pokedex but can't travel to other continents? Incubators Have a lot of disposable cash income? Pokeballs.
+wherethetatosat Yo man, thanks! I've upgraded my items storage a couple times so I'll probably do that a few more and I think I'm gonna buy a few incubators to catch some rarer/stronger Pokémon. Cheers!
That type advantage comment is very true for me; my Shadow Ball means that my Hypno ranks in the lower half of Hypno movesets, but since around me there are tons of Drowzees and Hypnos this gives me an advantage as I have a super-effective secondary move in most gym battles
The best about your channel is that you're trying to be as accurate as possible when you're talking about the game mechanics and that you tell us, if the outcome of an experiment is significant or not and how many attempts it would need for it to be significant. Keep up the good work! :)
Last time niantic had a bug with tracking Pokemon removes the way to catch it Niantic now has a problem with catching Pokemon are they gonna remove Balls????
No, no, no. They wouldn't remove the balls, don't be silly. Because the issue isn't with the balls, it's with the capture system. So they would remove the ability to capture them entirely. Much like the "tracker" works now, you would be able to click on the Pokemon and then... look... at it. Then Niantic will release a statement a week later saying "We will probably fix it at some point".
Btw I've noticed lately that throwing curve balls seems to result in way lower chances to catch a pokemon than just throwing straight. I use to always throw curves and noticed it seemed to never work but since switching to straight throws I find that I only use 1-3 balls per pokemon on average depending on the strength.
Defidnfally my favorite RU-vidr for watching Pokemon go content. Rather then making it completely about your Pokemon you teach your viewers lessons and TIPS about the game. Also excellent recording skills...major respect for all the camera walk ons u do, that takes effort most youtubers just don't do
If you got a Dragonite, but it has ''Steel Wing'' and ''Hyper Beam'', is it a Dragon/Flying (Dragonite) type or is it Steel/Normal (Move Set) type? So I know when I've to use this Dragonite.
+Elunegracee what? why? I think offensivley Steel Wing and Hyper Beam makes Steel/Normal dmg but dont get the STAB bonus. Defensively,,same but Dragonite take STAB dmg as a dragon/flying...or im wrong?
Dude let me just put it out there. you are by far my favorite pokemon go youtuber. Almost my top overall. Your vids are so helpful yet so simple. No click bait, informational vids, great quality, and just overall enjoyable content:)
In my experience, with those tricky pokemon that break out over and over (like your diglett), If I "run" and then return to battle, I can usually catch it the second time around. Not sure if this is coincidence or if it actually helps with the "catch-rate bug" but I honestly think it helps and wanted to share.
I can never get a vegetarian either, they keep breaking out of my pokeballs... but I seriously don't understand why you have a problem with him in regards to vegetarianism.
I reckon that the good thing in Pokemon battling would be that Pokemon gets better and better in fighting gyms and defending them the more times it does it, so even though someone hatched a really good CP Pokemon from an egg, another person who didn't have as much luck, could still work their way to have a good Pokemon. And this would give more prestige to trainers who actually bother to do more than just farm Pokemon off lures.
Say you have jolteon who is electric. When using thunder, thunder bolt, or any electric move, u will get a bonus, as the attack type matches the Pokemon type.
Agreed! Dual STAB "ideal" movesets are best exploited when training at your own team's gym, since you can only choose one pokemon, it's better to use a pokemon that is slightly lower CP than the bottom tier defender and use STAB and type advantage to make up for the lower CP weakness. The lower CP pokemon will get a bonus, at least 500+ prestige per battle if you can take out the first defender, compared to only 100+ prestige for each each lower CP pokemon you beat.
When I went to Mackinac Island, aka the Island of old times, where electricity is very little; the main town of the Island was home to a nest of electric type Pokemon; •Magnemite •Voltorb •Pikachu; which to me is absolutely hilarious.
I just wanna say, this is by far the best Pokemon Go channel on RU-vid. The information is accurate and clear, it's well-made, and very informative. Keep up the good work, I thoroughly enjoy every video.
Hello Nick! First things first: congratulations for your work, it's simply awesome! Now, my doubts: 1) How do I define "in a row" (for the Pokestop stuff)? - "without closing the app"? - "in the same day"? - "inside a certain period of time"? 2) Do you actually use GoStats to calculate IVs? Is it safe? The app itself shows a "you can be banned" warning that scares me. What makes you confident that you'll not lose your account by using those tools? Thanks in advance and congratulations again! Best regards from Brazil!
In the "Type war" I definitely agree with your statements initially but more so on attacking a gym. When it comes to defending though I have to say keeping a Pokemon with multiple types to pull from makes that Pokemon more effective at defending because we have no way to see what that Pokemon has before attacking. So a psyduck with cross chop for instance can easily catch someone off guard that way meaning as they approach if they happen to have a dark steel or normal type especially thinking that they have an atvantage using the dark or steel you have a chance of your psyducks basics taking that potential threat on before getting whipped and since they're attacking you they'll be able to juggle the more obvious attacks ahead of time saying "oh I know he's psychic and water so this should be simple" but since there's no warning when your Pokemon uses a basic attack they'd have to go in blind or take a pick from a move set list assuming or they'd have to be experienced and know the ani
It depends... If u leave a pokemon in a gym it's more advantageous to have two different types in a pokemon to cover more ground. When u're the attacker i agree that it's good to have a monotype moveset.
Just wanted to say thanks for making all of these videos - they're super helpful! You're my favourite Pokemon Go channel here on youtube. Both video and audio is great, you're good at explaining things and your voice is nice to listen to.
I feel you on the "where's my Lapras" part. my 10km eggs so far are: Eevee x4, Scyther x2, Magmar x2, Jynx x2, Mr.mime (EU) x2, Pinsir, Snorlax, Onix, Hitmonlee. On top of that I've seen a wild Lapras 1894 who ran after 2 berries and ultraball great throws.
honestly you are top tier when it comes to providing information for this game. everyone else's videos feel like a ton of crappy click bait. keep up the good work.
the seel popped up because you're at a park. water pokemon sometimes show up at parks. the park down the street from me has poliwags and another near me has seels.
Seals spawn a lot in areas where there isn't water. I caught 15 seals in my city with almost no water and only 1 in the city where I go to for water type pokemons.
could you do an episode on each pokemons percent-to-catch when using differing pokeballs, ball modifier (great, ultra), razz berry, and also talk about the green, red, and orange circle? (i know that its a huge amount of work though) it may be an old topic, but you dont really see that explained anywhere or atleast not all in 1 comprehensive guide. Just a suggestion. We all know you're working really hard on your vids
Nick I think it would be entertaining to see you do Pokemon "spotlights" in your episode talking mainly strategy for the best use of the mon as well as which stats are better to have maxed out if your choosing between two Pokemon to evolve. Just an idea!
Gotta agree on the meta based move set and your coverage of it. I'd assume just like any game with regional differences your local meta will be different area from area. For example fire types are all around here in Colorado Springs, so you see a lot of fire types on gyms. Broad example. But if you closer the the ocean water types may be more common.
I had a feeling you lived here in Downey but now that I saw you did the gym battle at furman it pretty much confirms it, which is crazy cuz I live right next to there!
Alright yo trainer tips nick dude you are hands down the best RU-vid for actual Pokémon go tips, and just footage. Not only are you very good at explain yourself in each and every video, but the quality and work you put into every video is astounding. And you don't click bait like you said using mewtwos in 10 k hatch videos. You deserve way more acknowledgment for your vids and I'm definitely sharing your vids to Pokémon community's in my area. Always look forward toward any video you make. And btw I'm still struggling to even get one Lapras and I'm lvl 25, good luck on your Lapras!
scenario : A gym of your team has two weaker Water/Psychic pokes and a strong Exeggutor guarding it. The Arcanine with Bite/Fire Blast could spam Bite then use Fire Blast on the Exeggutor. The one with all fire moves would be at more of a disadvantage, only having not very effective options for its first two battles. You could use an electric or grass type, but then when facing the stronger final opponent you'd be in serious trouble The best strategy really is situational. It's hard to simplify all the subtlies so new players can understand the nuances. I think they should just try different strategies themselves and see what works then again maybe the stab for fire fang versus the Exeggutor makes up for the initial disadvantage. Just something to think about
I love your videology and screen shots while skateboarding... man you are killing it in so many ways, thank you for taking everyday of your life to produce these videos! also thank your gf for putting up with you getting 3hrs of sleep because your video editing and chasing pokemon all night. it is appreciated all the way up in Canada!
I think you missed an important aspect when dismissing the multiple move types. When placing a Pokemon into a gym, it may be more beneficial to have a counterattack other than one specific elemental move type. This would offer a higher probability to deal more damage to a wider range of attacking Pokemon.
Are IV's a factor for determining the move sets of a Pokemon? Lets say if you evolve a 100% IV Dratini, is there a higher chance of getting the best move sets prior into a Dragonite?
Hey Nick I noticed something similar regarding egg hatching. I opened my pokemon list and arranged it by recent and saw Psyduck as my first pokemon, I remembered that I haven't caught Psyduck in a while. After few seconds (around 10 sec) my 5 km egg hatched and Psyduck came out. It looks like it takes few seconds to activate the hatching animation. Which might be similar in your case where you got an extra egg before one hatched.
Hey Nick and Juan! I'm so happy that your channel is blowing up so fast, you have very high quality videos and I can tell you guys are trust worthy. If friends come out don't reject my request!
Hmmmmm that actually made a good topic. I forgot about the scissors paper stone thing. And if a perfect iv does have a 15%advantage, it might be worthwhile finding the perfect iv.
Ok so the video i want u guys to make is about pokemon spawns so i have a pool near my house about 5 minute walk and its not a nest its a spawn for charmanders and it has been before and after updates when i go there to check for charmanders sometimes there's 1 there sometimes there's not but i bet there is an algorithm in the game for how they spawn each day or how they spawn in a week i would like u guys to make a vid on it and maybe figure the algorithm out thanks keep up the great work
About the iv. From 0 to 100 the difference aren't as high as many thinks yes its a 5% stronger on ever part depending on what pokemon it is. If u battle the same pokemon with 0 vs 100% it most likely will be a draw. What I'm trying to say is that charged N fast attack n cp is way way more Important n people are focusing too much on IV. Make sure ur pokemon has the same type attacks the type it is, both fast n charged, very important
I had the same thing happen with one of my last 2k eggs. Drove by a stop (as a passenger), picked up an egg there when I was sure I was already full, and then the egg popped up on screen to hatch a Caterpie (of course).
I have no issues defeating a gym, holding the gym is the difficult part. I enjoy throwing an Arcanine in a gym that has Bite and Bulldoze. Vaporeon's are very popular in my area still. It does surprisingly well against water due to the move set. Everyone i talk to or see is all about the strongest move set for most dmg. Thats basically for attacking. I'd like to see more videos on whats best move set to hold a gym.
Most Gyms You Can Only Use One Pokemon To Take It Over. So, In This Case Even If Your Pokemon Isnt Super Effective To The Pokemon Your Battling, Youre Still Going To Choose Your Highest CP In Order To Take Down The Most Pokemon In Thus Gym. So, Having Two Different Types Of Moves Is Actually More Helpful In This Case.
What does stamina help with? I got a snorlax with 15 attack, 15 defense, and 2 stamina. Also, I think spawn mechanics just increase the likelyhood of certain types in an area. I can find water types almost anywhere, but they are much more common by the river.
On the topic of spawns I've been noticing certain patterns for example across my street in the same spot that spawn pidgeys and rattata I think it's a common spawn yet every now and then a rarer Pokemon will spawn there I'm not sure what this means but it sure is interesting. Another thing I noticed is that a block away in the same spot a bulbasaur always spawns between 10-1:30 pm-am I don't know much about the spawns so hopefully you'll be able to get a vid out soon on it it's a interesting topic.
Thumbs up for the Intro! I've also had it up to here _holds hand above head_ with Mewtwo thumbnails. Another Thumbs up for always being a reputable source of PKM GO Info.
