  • folzyfantasy15 folzybear (@folzyfantasy15) reported

    Phones should really come with warning signs of: Please don't install these apps as they massively slow your phone down. I deleted the Discord, Twitch and Pokemon Go apps and instantly my phone isn't garbage speed anymore.

    @N0Glue @PokemonGoApp @SilphGG I don’t enjoy the grinding part of the game much, pvp used to be why I started playing this game after a 2 year break. So I’m upset that my favourite part of the game is broken and puts me in a bad mode every time I play this game

  • Musdaloose88 Musa (@Musdaloose88) reported

    @irispagsanjan @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp I have the same problem

  • chared64 Chared64 (@chared64) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Why must the shiny shadows be so difficult to come across? Haven’t seen one in a year and I fight leaders regularly, multiple times a day. Still, nothing. PLEASE FIX!

  • shaidotes shai (@shaidotes) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp I think your game is broken 🥲 can't get any shiny for 2hours 🥲

  • BAM91david David Ling Lee Aik (@BAM91david) reported

    @NianticHelp @NianticLabs @PokemonGoApp Why the charged move so slow to pump up? Pls explain this, ************ Nianshit. The lazy and worst developer was. Somemore said on the way to investigate. Investigate ur head la. The PVP system destroyed by Niandick. Rubbish developer

  • El_Sasafras Sasafras (@El_Sasafras) reported

    @NianticHelp @PikminBloom Hi, i'm still having issues with the pikmin bloom app, pokemon go works just fine, but when I try to open pikmin using my movile data it won't open... Opens fine when I'm at home and connected to wi-fi.

  • doingitsince6 Joseph Donald (@doingitsince6) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Why is it still summer time in the game !!!!! Its snowing outside @NianticHelp FIX THE GAME ALREADY !!!!

  • alvaro_santos95 Álvaro (@alvaro_santos95) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Wish they could investigate how to fix GO Battle Lag, fast moves not counting, tapping 5 times on a charge move and still nothing happens, opponents having a 2 second head start, hitting all the bubbles for the charge attack and still not getting an excellent, like WTF?

  • rose_diamond10 RoseDiamond10 (@rose_diamond10) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I entered this contest last year. I was really excited about it at the time. But the NPC version of the trainers was so annoying that I don’t want my trainer name associated with this feature this year. Hopefully you have resolved some of those issues.

    @PokemonGoApp Way to still have a broken buggy POS pvp system! #FixGBL

    @PokemonGoApp Shiny drops are terrible for the rocket event!! Haven’t seen a shiny in a year of rocket battles! Fix the drop rate Niantic!

  • pinklaura Robert Fettucine (@pinklaura) reported

    @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp @PikminBloom - both apps crash immediately on my brand new iPhone 13 Pro for the last month. I’ve been reading that they won’t run on beta versions of iOS, which I don’t think I ever had running, but now I’m on 15.2.1 and they still aren’t working.

  • rod_nga Rod nga (@rod_nga) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @cute_fairy45 After further investigation. It seems the games still broken @NianticHelp

  • Doctors__TARDIS Doctors TARDIS (@Doctors__TARDIS) reported

    @TamashiiHiroka You'd think @PokemonGoApp wouldn't have this problem as well, but you get ONE hair type, and one body type and that's it. Sorry if that doesn't look like you.

  • MoxieMagnus Moxie Anne Magnus (@MoxieMagnus) reported

    @Brad38864942 @PokemonGoApp It’s crazy! I’ve been working so hard to level up and it’s impossible with cheaters using 3+ shields!

  • Punkypine #ImproveRobloxSecurity & #ImproveDiscordsServers (@Punkypine) reported

    @Likwidkristal @Ryno_photo @PokemonGoApp The problem is Persian is FAST. And it can randomly have a Psychic fast attack which shuts down Fighting.

  • MT06876215 MT (@MT06876215) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Why is GBL still got day 1 issues and is a broken laggy pos? #FixGBL

  • HoldinMcNuggets HoldinMcNuggets (@HoldinMcNuggets) reported

    @Jason2890PoGo @thatboyjay1234 @PokemonGoApp My issue is with how we have just accepted this normal behaviour. Pvp has always had bugs, but it got significantly worse than when it began. I’ve tried to be resilient but can’t handle a game that is this inconsistent, especially for silph tournaments.

  • brandon_fazbear Brandon Fazbear (@brandon_fazbear) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I feel like we've done a million Team GO Rocket missions now and it becomes a little bit of a pain fighting against the leaders and boss. Like it's not horrible, just repetitive. But, I guess that's what you expect from an evil team in Pokemon. Being everywhere to cause trouble.

  • ShuckleLuck jase (@ShuckleLuck) reported

    Dear @PokemonGoApp and @nintendo Get together and fix the Ho Plus Ball. I am sick of it not auto spinning pokestops 100% of the time and disconnecting frequently. It needs an update and fixing. It’s a bit pathetic considering it’s cost.
