How to Plan for the Ultimate Pokemon Go Hunting Trip

If you want to find the rarest Pokemon or level up quickly in Pokemon Go, one of the best ways to do that is to plan a hunting trip with friends and like-minded individuals. With the weekend coming up we thought it was time to provide some helpful advice on how to play the ultimate Pokemon Go hunting trip. Here you’ll find everything you need to plan and advertise the trip to make sure you get the most out of your hunt.

The Necessities

Before you even begin to advertise or tell your friends about your hunting trip, you need make sure you have everything to make the trip a success. That includes one (or more) external battery charger (you can find them as low at 10 dollars in most places), plenty of water and snacks (preferably healthy snacks) and maybe even a portable generator depending on how many people are going and how long you’ll be hunting. Battery life is the main reason you’d need to call it a night early, so be extra prepared.

Getting the Word Out

If you just want to invite your friends, that’s a fairly easy task. Text them or contact them on Facebook, however you normally talk to your friends, and tell them you want to have a Pokemon Go outing. There isn’t much to that. However, if you want to invite any and all Pokemon Go players in your area, it requires a bit more effort to get the word out.

The easiest way to inform a lot of people at once is to create a Facebook event page or even a Facebook group and title it based on your area. If you live in Los Angeles, you might title it something along the lines of “Pokemon Go Los Angeles Meet Up”. You can swap out “Meet Up” for “Hunting Party” or “Gathering” depending on what you’re comfortable with.

Generally speaking, a group is better than an event, because people will join the group and stay there. Then you can post any and all events within the group for anyone who’s available. Once you’ve established your group of event page, tell you friends to share it on their Facebooks so the word spreads.

You can also head over to the Pokemon Go Reddit to spread the word that way as well. It’s not quite as effective as having your friends spread the word on Facebook because the Sub Reddit moves pretty quickly. Unless a new topic is upvoted quite a bit, it won’t appear in the “Hot” section to be visible to move people.

There’s a lot that can go into planning a hunting trip, but hopefully these tips will help you get the ball rolling. Keep in mind we also have helpful tips on fast leveling and the best way to hatch an egg in Pokemon Go.

Preparation for the Hunt

When posting on Facebook or Reddit, it’s important to include the necessities people should bring. Tell everyone to pick up an extra charger for their phone batteries, as well as water and healthy snacks. The less you have to share the better off everyone will be, even if it’s just you and your friends.

For something different, find out how to find Pokemon using Google Maps. If not, hopefully you’ve done enough exploring to know where the best spots are. Plan a good time for people to go, but remember that you can’t please everyone. Find a time that works for the majority, even if it doesn’t work for everyone. You can always plan more hunting adventures.

Finally, you should have a plan of action. Know which PokeStops and gyms you’re going to frequent on your hunt. Have a set plan of travel so you know where you’re going and in what order you’re going to be stopping at each location. You don’t have to follow this plan super closely, but as long as you have a good idea of where you want to go you’ll be much better organized.

Best Free Apps to Use with Pokemon Go

Best Free Apps to Use with Pokemon Go

Pokemon Go by itself is a great app, but we’ve got some advice on the best mobile apps you should use while playing Pokemon Go. These apps will help you keep your phone on while also conserving battery life and make egg hatching just a little bit easier. You can certainly play Pokemon Go without all of these additional apps, but with these recommendations you’ll get even more out of your time playing the game. You can search for all of these apps in the Google Play store for Android phones.

Keep Screen On

This free app allows you to prevent your phone from going to sleep. While your battery consumption will increase (more on that in a moment), your GPS will never go off, which means you will be able to hatch eggs a little easier since every step that can count, will count. It’s a good idea to check on your phone periodically while it’s in your pocket, just to make sure you haven’t accidentally tapped something you shouldn’t have, but otherwise this is a great addition to your Pokemon Go experience.

DigiHud Speedometer

When playing Pokemno Go, if you go any faster than 6 mph it won’t count your Trainer as walking. This makes it difficult to hatch eggs while you’re riding a bike or using some other form of transportation that isn’t simply walking. DigiHud Speedometer allows for an overlay of a speedometer so you can quickly and accurately determine exactly how fast you’re going. Keep your speed under 6 mph to ensure every step counts.

GO Extender

With this app you can turn your screen off without your phone going to sleep and without the GPS turning off. The main issue with trying to hatch eggs in Pokemon Go is that leaving your screen on drains your battery. We’ve covered some options to help conserve your battery life, but with this app you can turn off the display on your phone while still keeping everything else on and active.

GoIV

While not an app available in the Play store, you can find it on Reddit and install the app no your phone. This app scans the screen when you’re playing Pokemon Go, and quickly checks the Individual Value (IV) of your Pokemon. Be sure to check out our guide on IV so you know exactly what you’re getting with this app, but it’s very helpful to know the IV of your Pokemon when you’re planning to attack a gym.

We’ll have more on Pokemon Go in the coming months as Niantic adds more features to the app with regular updates.

Bubble Strategy Power Leveling, Get Your Gym to Level 10, Massive XP

01.26

Bubble Strategy Power Leveling, Get Your Gym to Level 10, Massive XP

The Bubble strategy in Pokemon Go is a way to quickly max out your gym to level 10 and earn a large amount of experience points (XP) very fast. This is not a hack and doesn’t require any modification to your phone. The Bubble strategy simply takes advantage of a very specific match up in the game that allows you to quickly and easily earn a lot of XP while leveling up a gym.

We’ve already shown you some ways you can earn a lot of XP very quickly. However, the Bubble strategy allows you to do this even faster, but requires a bit more preparation to get started. Before we get started on how to perform the Bubble strategy, let’s quickly cover what you’ll need to make this work.

Level 1 Diglett
Level 1 Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag
A few Revives

As you can see, you don’t need all that much to make this strategy work. First off, you need to find a level 1 Diglett. It’s usually best to look in areas with low traffic. Maybe on the outskirts of town or just in areas where there aren’t a lot of people. You can find a level Diglett in other places, but low traffic locations seem to be the best.

Once you have your level 1 Diglett, you need to use Stardust and Candy to power it up one time and only one time. This is referred to as a level 1.5 Diglett. If your Diglett goes above 10 CP, you need to start over with another Diglett. If your Diglett does not have Scratch, you need to start over with another Diglett (Mudshot works too, but you won’t find it on freshly caught Digletts).

With your appropriate level 1.5 Diglett, you need to catch a Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag and power it up to 20 CP. Make sure whichever one you choose you have Bubble. Ideally you want your Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag to have the lowest defense Individual Value (IV) possible. It has to be less than seven points higher than the attack IV of your Diglett. If you’re unsure what IV is, we provide a detailed way to find it online, or a way you can check with the latest in-game update.

When you have a Diglett and Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag with the proper stats and attacks, you need to take over a gym so that you can add your Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag as a defender. Horsea is the easiest to use, followed by Krabby and then Poliwag. Train your Diglett at the gym, tapping the screen as quickly as possible to attack with Scratch (or Mudshot) as fast as you can.

If you attack fast enough (hitting with five Scratch attacks or four Mudshots) you will take down the defender without getting hit. In the worst case, your Diglett will faint and you’ll need to use a Revive, but once you get the hang of this you shouldn’t have to revive very often, if at all. When performed successfully you will earn 1,000 Prestige for the gym and 100 XP for yourself. You can do this repeatedly for an hour to earn over 30,000 XP (or 60,000 with a Lucky Egg active).

Here’s a quick snapshot of the process:

Power up a Diglett to level 1.5 with 10 CP.
Power up a Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag to 20 CP.
Take over a gym and set your Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag as a defender.
Rapidly attack with Scratch or Mudshot to take down the Horsea, Krabby or Poliwag before it can attack you at all.
Repeat the process to earn a ton of XP and level up a gym very fast.

Best Ways to Get Candy and Stardust

Best Ways to Get Candy and Stardust

To evolve and strengthen a Pokemon in Pokemon Go you need Stardust and Candy, and this guide will give you tips on some of the best ways to get Candy and Stardust in the game. One of the main aspects of Pokemon Go is to strengthen your Pokemon so you can win gym battles and secure more territory for your team of choice. Without Candy and Stardust your Pokmeon won’t be able to get stronger.

You will always get Candy and Stardust when you catch a wild Pokemon. While Candy is necessary to evolve a Pokemon, you need both Candy and Stardust in order to power up a Pokemon. Stardust is universal and can be used on any Pokemon, but Candy is specific to each Pokemon, making it more difficult to come by. There’s even Rare Candy used with Rare Pokemon, which can only be hatched via eggs or caught in the wild with enhanced Poke Balls.

First and foremost, you should try to catch as many Pokemon as possible. You are generally awarded three Candy for each Pokemon you catch. In addition, you can trade in any low CP Pokemon to the Professor to obtain even more Candy. Once you have a few high CP Pokemon, use a Lucky Egg for an XP bonus, then use Candy to evolve them as many times as you can.

It’s a good idea to keep track of how much Candy you have and how much it will take to evolve a Pokemon multiple times. Lower CP Pokemon should only be evolved once. If you waste Candy for a second evolution, the resulting Pokemon will still be fairly low in CP. If you wait until you catch a higher CP Pokemon, you can perform two evolutions and get a much better Pokemon as the end result.

Once you have a few powerful Pokemon it’s time to collect some Stardust. Look around your area for gyms that are controlled by your team (friendly gyms). Place your Pokemon at these friendly gyms and you’ll earn Stardust and PokeCoins on a daily basis (every 21 hours). You can also get Stardust and Candy from hatching your eggs, but once again, make sure you have a Lucky Egg active during this process so you gain the double XP bonus.
