Players attending Pokemon GO Fest are reporting that they are unable to play the game as intended. Pokemon GO Fest offers special Gym areas and there are also PokeStops at Grant Park too, but players say that they are unable to log-in to the game and access them or catch any Pokemon. According to reports on social media, the technical issues have been ongoing for several hours and seem to be getting progressively worse, likely due to the influx of fans arriving at the event....

As time passes, different promo codes become active and inactive, meaning that Pokemon GO players can’t just use any code at any time they want. Codes that may have been available back in January may not be usable in March or other months.

Pokemon GO players are about to set out on a new task to catch mysterious Shadow Pokemon that are left behind by Rocket Grunts who are invading the world of Pokemon GO. So far, players haven’t tracked down any shadow Pokemon or Grunts yet, but once the update is pushed out to all devices it seems likely a new quest line may appear to get things started. The necessary code for Shadow Pokemon has been in the game for a little while now, so it will be very exciting to finally see this new feature rolled out over the next week, or so....

A Poke Ball is measured by the Pokemon’s catch rate and the Ball’s success rate. Common Pokemon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl (such as Starly) have a higher catch rate than legendary or higher-leveled Pokemon. Knowing what each Poke Ball can do will put the trainer to an advantage when trying to catch the Pokemon they want. While some Poke Balls can be bought at Pokemarts, some are exclusive and easy for trainers to miss....

Doing so will see them rewarded with the Icicle Badge, which will allow players to use the Rock Climb HM outside of battle. Players will also finally be able to head over to Lake Acuity after beating Candice, meaning there are plenty more battles with Team Galactic just on the horizon....

Pokemon didn’t necessarily need a canonical origin story, but it’s great that Nintendo went above and beyond in writing one anyway. Interestingly, it’s not the only Nintendo franchise that has a definitive origin story. The Legend of Zelda famously got a canonical origin story when The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword released. Now, as luck would have it, both the Zelda origin story and the vehicle for Pokemon’s origin story are getting remakes at the same time....

One electronic that is incredibly important for trainers is the Pokedex. This piece of technology helps provide information on Pokemon and keeps track of where each pocket monster can be found, as well as which ones have already been caught. It is a very important device to have that can be indispensable for trainers.

Charmander is known as the Lizard Pokemon, and it looks very much like a bipedal orange lizard with a flame at the tip of its tail. It’s one of the three Pokemon that gamers can choose at the beginning of the Gen 1 games.

As players might expected, the start of the Season of Celebration, combined with the Kalos event and the winter holiday are going to bring some exciting times to the mobile AR game. In addition to the the multiple Timed Research tasks that are available right now in Pokemon GO, players have some great opportunities from the typically sort of boring daily Field Research that is required to keep streaks going and unlock Breakthrough Research every seven days....

The event will offer Pokemon GO players the chance to encounter some very cool Pokemon thanks to special spawns and unique event Battle Raids, but those aren’t the only activities and encounter rewards up for grabs. Like most other in-game events, the fifth anniversary of Pokemon GO also hands a handful of limited time Field Research tasks that players can pick up to earn their daily stamps and unlock encounter and item rewards....

Like Lugia before it, Articuno is only available for a limited time as part of the post-Pokemon GO Fest celebrations. While the Pokemon GO Fest itself was plagued with numerous issues for attendees, gamers around the globe are profiting from the event. Lugia was the first Pokemon available via Legendary Raids, but it was revealed the Pokemon would only be available for 48 hours. Likewise, Articuno is expected to only be available for a limited time to Pokemon GO players, so those looking to scoop up the legendary Pokemon need to get moving....

In order to secure the exciting new Pokedex entry, Pokemon GO trainers are going to have to figure out how to beat the final third of the trio. Zekrom battles are already underway, but it’s never too early to start planning ahead and getting a roster ready for one of the next incoming Tier 5 bosses. For this guide, we’ll be concentrating on the best strategy to counter Kyurem. This Dragon-/Ice-type is super effective against a lot of different -types, so players will have to assemble a team that takes advantage of Kyurem’s weaknesses....

In the mainline Pokemon titles, every single Pokemon has a shiny variant, even if some of them cannot be obtained normally. In Pokemon GO, the same cannot be said, as the shiny variants of certain Pokemon seem to only be released in waves with new updates and put into the game proper.

One of the Team GO Rocket leaders that Pokemon GO players might encounter is Arlo. Like other trainer battles, he uses a team of three Pokemon that need to be taken down in order to beat him. He, however, is more powerful than any GO Rocket grunt players might find out in the open. RELATED: Pokemon GO: Promo Codes for Free Stuff (September 2021) While Arlo uses only three Pokemon in the battle, his exact team composition can’t be known by players that challenge him until the battle actually happens....

Like all of Team GO Rocket’s leaders, Cliff can provide quite the challenge for any unprepared Pokemon GO player. Luckily, all of his Pokemon have known weaknesses that can be exploited in order to make the battle go much more smoothly.

Pokemon GO: How to Catch Kecleon Players that are on the hunt for a Kecleon in Pokemon GO should simply tap every PokeStop that they encounter. Fans that take this approach will eventually find a PokeStop that they are unable to spin due to their being “an invisible obstacle” in the way. That invisible obstacle is Kecleon, and players should see its translucent form climbing on the PokeStop’s disc. RELATED: Pokemon GO: How to Get Shedinja...

Developed for the Nintendo 3DS, Pokemon Art Academy took advantage of the handheld’s staple touchscreen controls and camera so that players could take reference photos. However, with the 3DS ceasing production in 2020, Nintendo is putting all its weight behind the Switch. Given that the Pokemon series has evolved drastically since 2014, and the expanded functionality of the Switch itself, there’s an excellent opportunity to port or remaster Pokemon Art Academy....

There are currently 11 Pokemon that evolve using this evolution method. Since Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl excludes Pokemon from generations 5-8, that number goes from 11 down to 7. As long as the evolution move is a part of the Pokemon’s four-slot movelist, then it will evolve once it levels.

Dragonite is an excellent choice for a Build-a-Bear. While some plushies are adorable and small, others can be excellent with size and plumpness, and this is the case with Dragonite. The retailer has already seen many Pokemon plushies, with a trio of Eevee evolutions being made into Build-a-Bear plushies earlier this year coming to mind.

The Sims 4 is the latest game in the long running life simulation series. Because it allows players to create, The Sims 4 has often been used by players to make recreations of places from other video game series.
