Summary
Pokemon GOfans are unhappy about the Pokemon spawning in the game currently, as the Kantonian Pokemon seem to be dominating the spawn pool. The abundance of Generation 1 Pokemon from the Kanto region inPokemon GOis something fans have expressed their concerns about often, and while the new season alleviated the issues to some extent, it seems like things are back to square one.
The past few weeks have been a rollercoaster ride forPokemon GOfans, as players had to deal with some extremely frustrating bugs in between the exciting events. In fact, a recent study also claimed thatPokemon GOwas the buggiest popular game, which is not a great title to have. Amid that, onePokemon GOuser has summarized all the problems the fanbase has been facing lately.
In a new post on thePokemon GOsubreddit, user Foulmouth232 highlights the issues currently lingering inPokemon GO. Stating that the game is currently in “shambles,” the user figuratively emphasizes thatKanto Pokemon take up almost 50% of the spawnsin the game. The fact that the issue has escalated to events as well, which are supposed to offer players a more diverse set of Pokemon, and the Kanto spawns are also mostly restricted to the same few recurring Pokemon is what makes things even worse.
Kanto Spawns Aren’t The Only Thing Pokemon GO Fans Are Unhappy About
The Redditor also notes that players have been facing a lot of lagging issues in the GO Battle League after the biome update was released. In fact, Niantic even disabled the biome update for a tournament to improve the performance in the GO Battle League. Raids seem to be affected as well, as players are reportedly getting kicked out automatically. While the user also highlights the Poke Ball throwing glitch that has been occurring lately, thatissue was recently fixed in aPokemon GOupdate.
These are just a few of the various issues players have been facing, as numerous other smaller bugs keep surfacing from time to time. On the flip side, players have highlighted that the abundance of Kanto spawns ensures that they are able to get more Rattata and Magikarp for their tiny and big medals, respectively. The medals in question are actually Fisher and Youngster. Fisher requires players to catch 1,000 Magikarp for the Platinum, but they need to be 13.13kg or heavier. On the other hand, Youngster requires the same count of Rattatas instead, but their weight should be 2.41kg or lighter. The sheer number of Pokemon players need to catch is what makes thesetwo medals extremely hard to get inPokemon GO. With some more interesting events slated to take place pretty soon, it remains to be seen whether Niantic switches up the in-game spawns.
