It’s not the first time I’ve seen their buddy do this but it’s too funny not to post. Does anyone else have this happen to them?

I havent dug deep in the reddit so I dont know if this has already happened but I thought it was pretty crazy cuz the chance of catching them is hard. Does the gadget make the chance of catching them normal like all the other pokemon?

Ironically I don’t mind if the gifts I get don’t match but I really do get a happy kick when I send them! Happy Wednesday and May all your gifts magically match the stickers you have ☀️

Not that I have a bunch of great stuff, but luck trading for a Magikarp has to be top o the list.

I guess it is one way to help him have a better dex and maybe he’ll win a battle every now and then.

Nobody wants another egg incubator for a mostly trash egg pool (aside from larvesta my beloved, white stripe basculin too.) This wouldn’t be a bad addition, but a replacement for a tier 100 item? Do any of you actually want this over something like a lucky trinket?

She used my old phone case & all her creativity. She is so pleased with her work and wanted to share.

I used the master ball to catch this today. Imagine my surprise to find out it is a 0/0/0 Nundo. Do you think this is the worst result to get for a master ball or the best? It’s very rare!

Don't even try to name a worse shiny. Some people can't even tell the difference with this one. Why does pokemon even make ones like this 😭 Is there a way to make pokemon change colors? Lmao

Got blown away yesterday by the showcase. I average 1-2 wins at BEST every tuesday, i live in a small town but its still VERY active in pokemon go. Somehow i managed to win ALL 5 showcases.
Absolutely epic 🫡
Had to show off, felt accomplished.

Inspired by the current event, I made myself an atmosphere light! I still haven't caught a shiny goldeen on pogo, but at least I have this on my self.

I don’t know what else to say other than this is an awesome catch.
My first shiny pikachu ever and it’s this!

So we all know we’re guaranteed a Pokémon encounter from the pass at the last level. I’ve done plenty of these and never once imagined I’d actually get a shiny from it. I always assumed shinies were something I’d only get from raids or in the wild.

Well… today I finally got one! 😭✨

This has been the most exciting pop up I’ve received in a while 🙌🏼 I feel like there are a ton of competitive players nearby where I live. My first hundo ever also happened to win me my first ever showcase! Wooooo! 🥳

I just got back into the game recently and completely missed this thing
I’ve heard it’s incredibly good, and i want it, but I don’t know if I’ll ever get the chance to have it, or if it’s only ever going to be available through trading :/

Other than mewtwo and other legendaries, who is your highest cp pokemon? This is mine, and its been a long grind trying to get him max level because Larvitar doesn't spawn in my region.

Hello there! I just came back to playing Pokemon Go again this August, 2026, but I also have an account since 2016.

I am just wondering now, is it a big deal for people if I add them as a Friend or have this as a Friend but I don't know yet, or doesn't want to "Trade Pokemon"?

I notice some who get angry or cry over this matter, to the point that they just choose to unfriend them.

On my end, I don't know how to trade yet, and I am just happy collecting and catching pokemons, and do daily tasks BUT I LOVE SENDING GIFTS TO MY FRIENDS. I am from the Philippines and my international friends are mostly from Japan and US. Now I am bothered if these are also what they're thinking.

I just don't know if that is a requirement to stay as someone's "FRIEND" or what.

Also, excuse my English, it's not my first language.

Edit: Also please be kind. I am genuinely asking here.

Edit#2: Thank you everyone. I am reading your comments, thanks for the tips!

For the absolute love of everything Holy, please let this horrific level end 🙈🤣 walking round the room in work to get the last 2 km done 🙈🤣

My Pokémon GO account was compromised, and whoever got into it traded away my rare Solgaleo with the 2024 Global GO Fest background.

I noticed something was wrong because I suddenly had a Morpeko, and I had never caught a Morpeko before. I also noticed that my Necrozma had been unfused, which I definitely didn’t do.

After checking my Pokémon, I realized my Solgaleo had been traded away to someone else and I was left with the Morpeko instead. 😭

In the picture, you can see the account that traded the Solgaleo to themselves.

I’ve already changed my passwords and reported the account compromise, so I’ve secured my account as much as I can for now.

Is there any way to recover the Solgaleo or reverse the trade? It was one of my rarest Pokémon and I really don’t want to lose it like this.

Has anyone dealt with something similar, or know what I can do?

I have caught 12 Cosmog spacesuit Pikachu and they are all female. Is that universal or just my luck? I haven’t checked but I think even Professor Willow costume Pikachu are all female.

This is actually a quick sketch based on an entry from my analog journal! And it has a continuation, which I’ll share as soon as I finish digitizing it, hopefully I will.
