The Concierge Event kept Trainers busy and having a good time with a fun encounter pool and Shiny hunts. If you haven’t watched Concierge on Netflix yet, it is something you should do ASAP. Pokémon GO deals with such a high volume of Pokémon, it is nice when animation reminds us that Pokémon have personalities.Having Flabébé Community Day over the weekend broke things up nicely, while the fan favorite Trade Day closed out the weekend.
The Psychic Spectacular is back and this time it has been Taken Over by Team GO Rocket. Perfect for Trainers trudging through Level 44, this may have been the shortest gap between Team GO Rocket events. We run through the event and dig in to the updated Shadow lineups from Grunts and Team Leaders. Rescuing Shadow Incarnate Form Tornadus should be on everyone’s list, and should be somewhat quick to complete as you can get a Super Rocket Radar from Research.
Shadow Groudon comes back to us this weekend so we put together a little Raid Guide and Battle Party to get you prepped. With some fun counters including Mega Evolution and Shadow Pokémon, we hope you have a sizable Raid Party that allows you to get creative with things. Some highlights from our parties include Ken bringing 3 Hundo Kyogres, with each of them being a little bit different, and Adam bringing Pokémon like Golisipod that may have never seen a Raid Battle to date!
While we do have some info on Mega Camerupt Raid Day and Solosis Community Day, we close things out with a conversation around game-life balance, and how it may take you being a bit creative to get the most gameplay in. We discuss ways to have the game be less invasive on your personal and professional lives, and how there is so much value in playing this game solo. Has the onslaught of events impacted the adventure aspect of this game? Perhaps it is up to the Trainer to revisit a more adventurous play style and get out there, even without an active event or group to meetup with.
