    Pokémon Go is a 2016 augmented reality (AR) mobile game developed and published by Niantic in collaboration with The Pokémon Company for iOS and Android devices. A part of the Pokémon franchise, the game is the result of a collaboration between Niantic, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. It uses the mobile device GPS to locate, capture, battle, and train virtual creatures, called Pokémon, which appear as if they are in the player's real-world location. The game is free to play; it uses a freemium business model and supports in-app purchases for additional in-game items. The game launched with around 150 species of Pokémon, which had increased to around 500 by 2019.
    Pokémon Go was released to mixed reviews; critics praised the concept, but criticized technical problems. It was one of the most used and profitable mobile apps in 2016, having been downloaded more than 500 million times worldwide by the end of the year. It is credited with popularizing location-based and AR technology, promoting physical activity, and helping local businesses grow due to increased foot traffic. However, it attracted controversy for contributing to accidents and creating public nuisances. Various governments expressed concerns about security, and some countries regulate its use. By early 2019, the game had over a billion global downloads, grossing over $3 billion in revenue. The game also had over 147 million monthly active users as of May 2018.

    The big question is: Why is none of this in the game? There is little to no tutorial for basic stuff like: how to throw pokeballs (let alone curve balls)? What to do at the pokestop?
    My first two days of playing have been a massive exercise in trial and error (and now succumbing to watch this amazing tutorial).

  • @revblade
    @revblade Před rokem +22

    Overall I liked this video and I'd like to recommend it to friends who are interested in starting the game. However I do strongly disagree with the advice on premium items. For free to play players I think that using lucky eggs, insence, and (the non-free) incubators is a terrible use of Pokecoins. I'd suggest using all coins from holding gyms to buy storage for more Pokemon or items. Not being able to hold more than a few balls, or save favorite Pokemon is one of the biggest frustrations in the game. Even raid passes are not as valuable as storage, until you have enough. Having fewer than 500 item storage is a pain, and having more than 1000 is a goal to aim for early in the game. Storage for at least 500 Pokemon is also a priority, and having fewer than 1000 Pokemon gets frustrating quickly. Once a player has over 1000 or each kind of storage, it may make sense to occasionaly buy premium items.
    If you aren't buying lucky eggs, it makes sense to save the few you get for free to use when you are about to become good, ultra, or best friends (perticularly if they have more than one friend that is ready to boost friendship.) Even a x3 XP event for 30 minutes is not going to give you as much boost from a lucky egg, as becoming best friends with a few players.

      Oh and cuz count makes GREAT CONTENT for F2P Players.
      Sure PokéDaxi Mystic7 TrainerClub and Trainer Tips are all great, but they focus too much on catering to the crowd of people who are already lvl 50, and have FULL pokedex for every shiny AND most of the TOP TIER RAID ATTACKERS. And I'm like.... okay.... I'm lvl 38 and didn't play for like 3 years yall are good but on a tier WAY ABOVE ME. But Count breaks things down for people that maybe haven't played EVERY DAY FOR 6 YEARS AND GO TO ALL OF THE GO FESTS...

I have friends ask how to play, that aren't eady to start playing or to watch me play. I'll likely share this video with them. I don't agree about the importance of premium items for new players, but that has to do with my play style.

    I played in 2016 still have the account apparently I have charmander! Watching this so I can get back it to it as apparently I can transfer the Pokémon from GO to Pokémon Home?

      Hey, returning players have the possibility to enter a referral code that both players will benefit from by ingame rewards + pokemon encounters, like charizard, …
      You can go to your profile, then to friends, and on invite. If you can enter a referral code there, mine would be JKHPXDPYT :)

    I have been feeding my buddy berries to come on adventures with me. What is the benefit of this?

    This probably won't be answered but hopefully it will, I'm a returning player and I have a Haunter with Lick which I learned is very good but I want to evolve him, will it remove lick or can I decide not to?
