The footprints you see on your nearby key is nothing but a radius of your\u00a0\u2018nearby\u2019 pokemon. If there\u2019s three footprints, that type of pokemon is 300 meters away. If there is two, it is 200 meters away. And so on.<\/p>\n<p>14. Transferring a pokemon gives you candy!!<\/p>\n<p>13. The shield icon in your shop says how many free items you have! You get one free item a day!<\/p>\n<p>12. When a green ring is around your pokemon while your trying to catch it, that means you should throw the pokeball when the ring is at its smallest. Shrink the ring by holding your finger over your pokemon. Pokemon with red or orange rings are much harder to catch, but berries, which you can purchaseor find, make it easier.<\/p>\n<p>11. (copied and pasted this one because I can\u2019t explain it?)\u00a0To throw a curveball (which are worth more XP, but you risk burning through Pok\u00e9balls to do so), simply hold on the Pok\u00e9ball and make a rotating motion until it sparkles &#8211; similar to how you modify items in Super Mario Maker.Once this has happened, let it fly &#8211; and most likely miss &#8211; but eventually you\u2019ll get the hang of it. Combine with a Lucky Egg to double your base XP, and you\u2019ll be ranking up in no time.<\/p>\n<p>10. YOUR APP IS NOT TRACKING POKEMON WHEN THE GAME IS NOT PULLED UP. AND IT\u2019S NOT COUNTING YOUR STEPS EITHER.<\/p>\n<p>9. for the love of all that is charmander, turn BATTERY SAVER MODE ON. IT\u2019S A LIFESAVER. WHEN TURNING IT ON, TIP YOUR PHONE UPSIDE DOWN AND IT WILL TURN THE SCREEN OFF, BUT NOT THE GAME. IT WILL STILL TRACK AND COUNT YOUR STEPS.<\/p>\n<p>8. wHAT A LIFESAVER. When your pokemon get completely knocked tf out, don\u2019t use a bunch of expensive crap to bring em back. Just evolve your pokemon. Brand new health bar.<\/p>\n<p>7. TAKE A BREAK. STAND AROUND IN THE SAME SPOT FOR A FEW MINUTES. After walking for a while, the game triggers cool pokemon and stuff to congratulate the fact you are moving your body. and to actually have a good chance of getting it, you gotta just stop and wait for it to come to you. Which it will.<\/p>\n<p>6. This is an easy one, YOU CAN NAME POKEMON.<\/p>\n<p>5. (this is really important so to make sure my poijt gets across i\u2019m copying and pasting) When you get close to a Pok\u00e9Stop, yes it will change shape, but you need to tap on it to zoom in, swipe as fast as you can on the picture itself (it\u2019ll be a real snap, taken from Google Maps), <i>then <\/i>the icon will produce items and you can hoover them up. This can be done once every five or so minutes, as many times as you like.<b>Bonus tip:<\/b> Due to how every item and element of progress is synched with Niantic\u2019s servers, after you\u2019ve set the picture disk spinning, simply hit the \u2018X\u2019 quit button and any requisite items will automatically be added to your inventory, meaning you don\u2019t have to wait for the animation to stop. People have used this as a means to perform \u2018drive-by Pok\u00e9Stops\u2019, as it\u2019s especially useful in traffic.<\/p>\n<p>4. See blades of grass rustling? Or any other kind of map animation? Go there. That means it is probably filled with some pokemon. Or at least one pokemon is there. From my experience, at least. Always remember: THE GAME KNOWS YOUR LAND TYPE. THEY KNOW WHERE RIVERS, LAKES, FIELDS, ROADS, AND EVERYTHING IS. USE IT TO YOUR ADVANTAGE TO FIND POKEMON.<\/p>\n<p>3. (VERY IMPORTANT SO COPY AND PASTE) BATTLING IN GYMS:\u00a0First you\u2019ll need to level up to 5, and then claim a neutral gray-coloured one for yourself, or head up to a coloured gym (meaning it\u2019s owned by members of the three teams, Instinct, Mystic, Valor), as therein you\u2019ll get the option to battle their Pok\u00e9mon one on one.Depending on how many real-world people have staked their claim at that specific spot, the person with the highest combined CP (Combat Power) will be the default \u2018Leader\u2019 (who you\u2019ll face last), with all others simply being trainers you need to get through on your way to the top.Note, battles are NOT turn-based. Instead, you swipe left and right to dodge and can tap on your opponent to do as much damage as fast as possible. The only \u2018tactic\u2019 outside of evasion is keeping an eye on your special meter, but chances are the fight will be over before it\u2019s maxed out. After you win, depending on how many people you need to get through, the gym may still be coloured &#8211; so repeat the process until it\u2019s gray, and then plant your metaphorical flag.Once you do, you\u2019re then free to be the Leader of that gym, providing you can keep your CP high enough.<\/p>\n<p>2. You\u2019re gonna be crushed when you first try dominating other teams. But it\u2019s okay! Your special attack meter is always rising while battling with a certain pokemon, and you can use it later on to really take out your enemies. Find it by picking a pokemon and scrolling down to their abilities.<\/p>\n<p>1. To make sure you don\u2019t lose your data during a server crash, turn the game completely off, that means going to the app manager for some phones, and rebooting it. DO NOT leave it active during a server crash and try to come back. Although I\u2019ve never lost my data during a server crash, it could happen. But there\u2019s a 99.9 percent chance it\u2019s still there and you\u2019ll get it back.<\/p>\n<p>For more details, click the link I put in the beginning~<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>megaowlfeatherblog: These tips are extremely important!
