    @biancatoeps @PokemonGoApp Me 40, partner 41, same problem. Probably they are waiting on the backend Devs?

  • Dokkanbattle932 Originalfrankster オリジナルフランクスター (@Dokkanbattle932) reported

    @PokemonGoApp I don’t know if anyone else has been having this issue but for the past three days I have been getting kicked out of every raid and have not been getting my remote raid passes back. I’ve spent nearly 1000 coins just to buy back my raid passes

  • Katie72345051 pokemon active raids (@Katie72345051) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @PokemonGoNews I have a report of players spoofing. If anyone is around where I am and seeing the same problem please help me ban these players. They have been taking over gyms and when players try to take over the gym they come right back in seconds. Next tweet

  • SPShashanka ShasPattanaik (@SPShashanka) reported

    @NianticHelp , @PokemonGoApp GBL has become more problematic day by day. Today I fought many battles and the attacks just not getting landed on opposite pokemons even after attacking. I know you are working towards it, but not seeing any immediate solution or improvement

  • toonvailo Jared (@toonvailo) reported

    So it seems my @PokemonGoApp adventure sync has stopped working 🙃 (Yes I checked the settings and it's on) But zero steps in 3 days is incorrect 😑 @NianticHelp

  • jmcss20 jM (@jmcss20) reported

    @roxxlyy @SUP3RSoN1K @PokemonGoApp we all know you dont really think its a problem

  • andrewmacari Andrew Macari (@andrewmacari) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Main problem with spotlight hours is because the shiny rate is so low the only way to get it is to either drive around which is terrible for the environment and dangerous or spoof so you can check hundreds of Pokémon. Is this what you are trying to promote?

  • Quadraxiz Quadraxiz (@Quadraxiz) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp Hi, can you please fix the incenses so that during the next spotlight hour the featured Pokemon will be Drowzee and not the ones from the new event? (Nosepass and co). In other words I want Drowzee to be attracted and not the pokemon from the event.

  • TwoToTheFifth There is one Rick Healey among us (@TwoToTheFifth) reported

    @PokemonGoApp It's gonna be like the first month of launch, minus the connection issues.

  • Elite4Stephan Elite4Stephan TL50, 40x20 (@Elite4Stephan) reported

    @Ivy89SE @PokemonGoApp Yup when that seems to be the only way I get shinys and if I’m working yup I’m go plusing

  • Paulhallford1 barney (@Paulhallford1) reported

  • millar_aaron DoubleA🦅🔥 (@millar_aaron) reported

    @nintendolife @PokemonGoApp my adventure sync isn’t working properly keeps knocking off every 30 mins

  • Art_DS_Raja Once did art (@Art_DS_Raja) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Dear @NianticHelp do you think it's acceptable that this "Error finding battle" has been occurring since the start of 2021 and you guys have done nothing to fix or address it beyond "restart your app" or "reinstall your app"?

  • MichaelDPla Mike (@MichaelDPla) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Can I ask why these Tornadus don’t stay in the ball? I’ve done over 50 raids and caught 1. Fix the game.

  • CrowsInTheField Scarecrow (@CrowsInTheField) reported

    @NianticHelp if you could fix the battle scaling for pokemon go thatd be great. A challenge is fun but getting destroyed over and over kinda sucks. The two people I play with seem to think do as well. Not spending any $ until the battle scaling is fixed.

  • squish1901 poke (@squish1901) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Is there an issue you haven’t posted about? My app doesn’t open - deleted & reinstalled.

  • brandon_fazbear Brandon Fazbear (@brandon_fazbear) reported

    @Siniste03637986 @Illumix I'm not having any problems with the game crashing, but in both Pokemon GO and FNaF AR, the AR functionality doesn't seem to pick up anything making it nearly impossible to do anything with the AR. I can barely get my Pokemon buddy out to play and in FNaF AR...

  • CGorway Ceejay Gorway (@CGorway) reported

    Why is Glameow’s hitbox so disproportionate to its sprite? It’s getting frustrating trying to select a ‘mon that’s in close proximity to it. Fix it. @NianticHelp @NianticLabs @PokemonGoApp

  • AerithReborn AerithReborn | Kyle (@AerithReborn) reported

    @roxxlyy @SUP3RSoN1K @PokemonGoApp Its not a problem, what's a problem is that we aren't best friends on the app yet

  • EndAdvGaming Tim Bilodeau (@EndAdvGaming) reported

    Will someone explain to me why using a Super Effective attack in @PokemonGoApp does less damage than my opponent (Giovani) who's attacks are Not Very Effective. It's flat out broken... #Borken #giovani

  • roxxlyy Roxanne (@roxxlyy) reported

    @SUP3RSoN1K @PokemonGoApp 9502 2825 1750 I have more hours in this game than anything else and it's a problem

  • moretolife__ Eliza TL 46 (@moretolife__) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Fix Glameow'***** box!

  • AdamElphick Adam Elphick (@AdamElphick) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Are you making the app compatible with newer Huawei devices with no Google services? Also if so will we still be able to sign in with our Google account? I don't want to lose my level!

  • streetfare_ Colin (@streetfare_) reported

    @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp I've tried getting a battle 15 times in a row in GBL and I keep getting errors. What's going on? Thanks. #PokemonGo #PokemonGoGBL

  • CouncilMarquis Marquis Council (@CouncilMarquis) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Can you fix your game

  • GuevaraDanielo DanyDrgonWrath (@GuevaraDanielo) reported

    @richardfoss19 @PokemonGoApp if you didn't catch'em, it's not Niantic's problem.

  • _Bjak Brett Jackson (@_Bjak) reported

    @bananamation_ To be honest, Pokemon Go helped me do it. Working out for me was always "ugh when do I get to stop? Its only been 5 minutes? Ugh" but when I got out if the hospital and NEEDED to walk in order to relearn balance, a geo-location game like Pokemon Go gave me something else for my

  • nachovaldes_ nacho valdes (@nachovaldes_) reported

    @NianticHelp @PokemonGoApp how am i supposed to advance on GBL if i keep getting errors, my pokemon faints without noticing and al of a sudden, the opponent has 3 shields. how??

  • Strain42 Strain21x2 (@Strain42) reported

    I've tried every possible fix in @PokemonGoApp to get my adventure sync to work and it's just NOT working and there's something super frustrating about my phone telling me "You walked 8 miles today" only for Pokemon Go to be like "Nope, no steps at all."
