This Week in Pokémon Go News + Free-for-All

[inkstone]

News was pretty light this week -- aside from numerous complaints from disgruntled PokeGo players -- so it's another combo post.

In terms of the game itself, here are some newsbits that might be of interest:

• Nests have migrated again.

• Pokémon no longer spawn if you're going over 30mph. While this is meant to deter playing while driving, it also inadvertantly penalizes people who play while riding as passengers or take public transportation. I believe you can still spin pokestops, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

Aside from that...



How was your week in PokeGo?!

I caught a koffing! That's... about it, end of semester + weather being shittastic means I haven't got out much since last weekend. The no-more-driving-pokémon does explain why I didn't see anything much when I went to the hospital on Thursday, though. =/ Annoying! (I did get pokéstops, though!)

Super close to being done with uni for the year, plus I'm getting stronger pretty fast now, though, so will be doing a LOT more walking in coming weeks. >3

I did have a question, though! When you're just walking along normally, about how often do people tend to see pokémon? I feel like I don't see many, but I dunno if it's location or luck or just because I don't go very *far* even if it takes me a while.

I do see pokemon when I walk around normally, but it does depend on where you're walking and whether there are spawn points there. Places that tend to have lots of cellular usage will see more pokemon whereas places that don't won't.
