Pokémon GO Podcast Ep 191 – “Joe said ‘Charles hates people’”

Another Fine Podcast on the Giant Size Team Up Network

The title is brought to you by LadyJasmin

Welcome to Pokémon GO Podcast! Charles and Joe are back again, but Charles has a new toy and we’re not sure how we feel about that. Basically every aspect of Pokémon is being impacted by the coronavirus, but Niantic is making some adjustments to allow people to play from home. Some of the things negatively impacted: raid hour has been cancelled, the next three safari zone events are being postponed, and rumors are abuzz that Niantic will temporarily disband raids altogether. There are some good things, but they are mainly focused on PvP: GBL doesn’t require you to walk in order to battle, eggs are half hatch distance, and the Genesect quest was reworked to make it so you can accomplish everything from your house. All of that incredible content, and of course YOUR feedback and comments!

Thanks to our awesome Patrons we will keep producing and improving the Pokémon GO Podcast. With your help everyone “catch ‘em all,” and you can start by going to giantsizeteamup.com/support/ and growing your community!

As part of our commitment to player safety, for the next 30 days, we removed the walking requirement for GO Battle League globally to make it possible for Trainers everywhere to participate.

GBL shiny legendaries are not 100% catch rate, but do not flee when out of balls.

ZoéTwodots: “CONFIRMED FROM NIANTIC” **The entire Genesect quest can be played from HOME! No raids, no Pokéstop spins** Stay safe, make safe choices, keep your chin up lovelies.”

A “shelter in place” order has been placed in the SF Bay Area – heads up that it will likely effect Niantic operations until at least April 7th
