Weekend Free-for-All

Posting this early because I'll be out and about this weekend, so I'll be short on time.

ICYMI: As [personal profile] healingmirth pointed out in the comments of the last free chat, nests have migrated once again! In addition, the new Nearby tracker has rolled out to the rest of the continental US and large sections of Europe.

With the nest migration, I suspect a game update won't be too far behind. I wonder what'll be included?



With the new CP rebalancing, I figured we should feature this guy since he got a boost.

How was your week in PokeGo, trainers?

Thank you for sharing that great discovery of circumstances under which the old Nearby returns!

I think that Niantic should mix it up on the panel, so that we get both/either pokestop and "grass" sightings all the time, based on our actual vicinities. The fact that the old view is lurking there suggests that this should be possible, if they choose to make it so.

You're welcome!

There's been a lot of hopeful speculation that we may eventually get a permanent dual option - sort of like how you can tab/swipe between pokemon and eggs.

I'm grumpy that they moved away from the phase in the rollout when it was 6 pokestops and 3 sightings, but likewise I'm hopeful that the current phase is basically forcing people to test the pokestop version on the large scale while they work on how they would technically implement it.
