Tuesday Tips: Migration Time!

[inkstone]

Look alive! The third nest migration is here. But this nest migration is a little different from the past two...

• In addition to nests changing, new nests have appeared.

• Unfortunately, some nests have also disappeared.

• Higher evolutions can now be found at nests! Previously, only base evolutions could be found at nests. So now, you might find Wigglytuff at a Jigglypuff nest, for example.

• There are also new spawning locations. My neighborhood added 4-5!

• But...some spawning locations have also vanished.

• Spawning times have also changed. If you're used to mon spawning at certain times, you might need to readjust. I know I'm having to figure out the new schedule in my neighborhood!

What are things looking like around you?

Okay, I have to admit my total, utter newbness.

What is a nest?

It's basically a spot where a specific type of mon regularly spawns. The most recognizable, classic nest is a cluster spawn -- where 3-4 mons will spawn around you. So, 3-4 charmander or dratini. The other example is where a place -- like a park -- regularly spawns, say, jigglypuffs throughout. The latter example is tricky because people confuse them with biomes (like dratini spawning in water biomes where you find magikarp, psyducks & slowpokes) but that's the basic idea.

I'm assuming there's no way to tell if you're near a nest, outside of random chance? XD

Keep in mind, we had ANOTHER nest migration yesterday so they're currently being updated.

aaah. I don't use that site, which explains why I was like "WTF?" XD
