- This video is sponsored by Niantic. I'm so grateful to have been a part of the first ever Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago, despite all of the setbacks! Even through all the server and connection issues, I had so much fun meeting all of you and catching some Heracross and Unown, and especially hitting up Legendary Raids for Lugia and Articuno!

Just wanted to share a more positive side of Pokémon GO Fest that hasn't really been shown enough online. Thank you so much to everyone who came out to say hi! It was amazing getting to meet you all.
To be clear, this is the video that Niantic APPROVED, so they're not trying to silence us - they're fine with me saying it didn't go well, they're fine with showing the crowds chanting "WE CAN'T PLAY," so hopefully we can put all that to rest.
Hate on it if that's how you feel, unsubscribe if you think you need to, but for the more open-minded among you, enjoy a look at Pokémon GO Fest through my eyes. It's true the event didn't go as planned, and people have every right to be upset, but a lot more people enjoyed themselves than you might think.
Trainer Tips i want to thank you so much for making me and many others lives much more entertaining and fun to live 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼Thanks dude🙌🏻
Trainer Tips I
Trainer Tips life is what you make it. This event was about coming together and meeting other trainers and sharing stories and tips. And celebrating one year of the game. Stay positive.
Thanks for sharing! It seems to me that the coming together of players turned out to be much more meaningful than all the actual gameplay. Thanks for your honest account.
*people have every right to be enjoy and a lot more people was up set.
You have to admit nick does a badass job delivering information.
I could not agree more, he really is a great community person too. He does deserve the publicity and his channel should hit 1 mill by the end of the summer I hope.
Norezilla Yeah definitely. I've been watching him since he started making videos. He deserves this recognition for all his dedication
Jessica Guerra Actually tho
Brotherswords Gaming 👍
nick imo is THE best at giving information about the game. there are plenty of other great youtubers who are very entertaining
but when i want entertainment and get all the in depth important info i never look any further than nick
Out of all the things I got at GO Fest... Lugia, Snorlax, Heracros, Unown, Porygon... my favorite will always be that picture with Nick. That's why we all came to the event. Not for Pokémon GO, but to share our love for GO with other people. You are the best, Nick. This game would be nothing without people like Rev, Mystic, Ali-A, Lachlan, and definitely Trainer Tips
I love when the intro has the song build-up!
Thanks for being so positive Nick, the world needs more of you
Holi fric its you
this comment seems so stray
DUDE! That signing part got me a little teared up for you, Nick! That's awesome. I'm happy for you, man. You earned it! Congrats!!! :D
Bethany ikr, I don't know why but i felt so proud of him
Bethany I thought I was the only one who teared up during that signing session.
Right in the feels. Happy for Nick
Same here :)
okay i teared up too! This guy is going to be epic!
This has officially become my second favorite video after the one you did in Japan at that graveyard. I simply cannot get over the level of cinematography in that one but this one was just so positive you have to love it. As someone that deal in social media but doesn't really care for crowds I know that feeling of walking by a bunch of people that know you and it has nothing to do with ego but more with accomplishment and seeing that you set a goal and made it or even exceeded it. Stay humble bro keep up the amazing work
god watching you nick, get all those cheers and Recognition gave me Goosebumps. You deserve all of it , you are the proof that hard work and quality pays off. always!!
I made it into a Trainer Tips video! I can finally die happy now!
BlockO008 congrats!
Acepilot12345 Thank you!
dammit. now I'm jealous, but congrats bruh!
1:38 - Full body chills.
saaame. his production quality is brilliant. his videos are so positive and real.
John Thrasher ME TOO
i read this comment and was like "fuckin doubt it"....was wrong lmao. good piss
+
That is such a brilliant entry. With the correct shot and the correct music cut. Nick can do no wrong.
My mom is level 38, and has well over 4 million stardust. She wanted to go but wasn't able to and she still was daily grinding the days the bonuses were still in effect and made well over 2 million exp. Insane.
IAmNoah My mom hates the game
Airaia my mom also plays we are rivals XD
Nick! I was so mad at the end result of Go Fest because they devalued legendary. Had so much complaints that I almost start a video about it, then I saw this. It's amazing how this video made me realize how much I missed by being unhappy about this whole event.
I had a few raids during last few days, and yet to catch a articuno. Looking back each raid, it was fun meeting all the players there struggled with me. It was great to see that I wasn't all alone in this fight, and everyone was so nice.
Thank you Nick! You made my day!
YES! I made the very front of your thumbnail! It was a pleasure meeting you Nick! (I'm the guy in the red!)
You are now forever famous!
RomanLegion Gamer uhh I don't really think so.. congrats anyways
Zaxhys FOREVER!!!!
Jayson Kinsey You're legit in everyone's videos, haha.
Jessica Strike hahaha that was the goal! I'm glad you noticed!
Once the Legendaries hit the streets and the 2-mile radius was extended, GoFest actually turned out to be extremely enjoyable!! It was an even greater nostalgia of when the game 1st launched, with EVERYONE AROUND THE WORLD enjoying the streets of Chicago instead of being trapped in that (respectfully), lame park.. The bad start was a blessing in disguise for a MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE experience imo!! Sadly it was outside and after the event; but none the less, can't wait for the next one! :D
An absolutely beautiful recap of Go Fest. It was awesome to see everybody coming together and enjoying the game. Not gonna lie, I teared up more than once watching this video.
I have a respect on a whole new level for John Hanke.
MBC same
Please never change the music for your intro
Dux i just love kubi ember becouse of nick. beautiful
he did change it though, remixed it, or something, but not the same
This is my alarm that I wake up to every morning! Awesome to find great new music because of UA-camrs!
My only regret from Go Fest was not screaming this song at Nick.
Thank you for keeping it real & positive Nick. I'm hoping that they don't cancel Go Fests completely but rather now know how to plan them better. I really, really, really want a Go Fest in NYC because I'd be able to get to it & I'd have a greater chance of maybe meeting some trainers that play closer to home. I feel like that's the ultimate goal of the Go Fests & I don't really know of anyone nearby who plays. Since you have Niantic's ear, please let them know that there are trainers out here looking to connect.
Literally crying. We're so proud of you Nick. Thank you for making amazing videos, and connecting with your audience.
9:43 *I think you had the largest signing group of all the media attendees Nick*!!! 👍😎 So happy for you bro!!! 🍺🍻🍺
drnycmedia that honor belongs too Mystic7. He was signing for 6 hours while T tips was only signing for 2 hours
Amazing. no other words. Your videography, honesty, and overall awesomeness are why I stayed with you, thank you so much for this amazing video!
He and prodigies are the last ones I watch. Only ones who stil deliver informative and good content. Rest got boring
Frank Gaspers Lol that dude Reversal has the personality of a brick.
Nick this is one of, if not the BEST video that you've created!! I truly enjoyed watching your experience at Pokémon Go Fest. I had a smile on throughout the entire video. Your attitude and dedication and creativity are amazing!!!!!
doesnt top 'my favorite rock type pokemon' tho
cee em IKR
Brit Barbato damn you're beautifully sexy
I totally agree with you Brit, when finished the video I was like "wow best video ever" at the time of the meet up I just wanted to cry because I couldn't be there !!! Nick thank you for all you beautiful work!! Wish you all the best!! If you ever come to Uruguay 🇺🇾 you know you have a friend here !
Nicholas Bethencourt that was too much lol there are better moments for me in real life lol fans are so wierd
This video alone it's extremely eye opening, you can totally see things weren't as they made it seem and how many people took advantage of all that.
No, it was miserable. Talk to people who weren't comped and don't need UA-cam views and you get honest reviews of the experience.
Majority of the day was bad. For some people we couldn't even catch anything or spin a pokestop. My highlight of the fest was meeting you. You're a humble dude, Nick. I'm just lucky I was able to spin one stop so I can get my QR code to work. Now I have my Lugia which is awesome and lots of coins so now I guess I can stop complaining.
This kind of made me emotional omg :(
I was one of those who couldn't login at all until the GoFest ended. Even after it ended my connection was spotty at best but I still had a ball. Initially I was terrified that I would return home without having caught even one legendary, Unown or Heracross but John Hanke assured me that "everything would be made available to all attendees" so I relaxed and started enjoying myself. Yes John Hanke didn't hide out but made himself available to face the obviously distressed and angry attendees.
Once the Legendary Raids started everyone was hyped and the only complaints were about staying connected. In the first few raids most people weren't able to catch the birds until the catch rate was "abandoned". If people had a problem with that, it didn't stop them from rushing to catch as many as they could. In my opinion no one can say that it was too easy to get the legendaries if they look at the whole picture. To catch legendaries we stood in line for upwards of four hours; walked through mud; ate horrible food; baked in the sun for 12 hours, fought with our phones all day to get and,or keep internet connection; faced our personal fears; fought back anger; ran all over Chicago on foot and FINALLY after 12 hours we engaged the Legendary Birds. Anyone who believes that catching the birds in Chicago was easy only looked at the final step. Believe me, if the catch rate of 2% hadn't been abandoned, there would have been RIOTs that night..
Sandie Henderson-Boncore THIS
I would of been shocked if the catch rate stayed at 2% or anything less than good chances.
Sandie Henderson-Boncore 😂 riots
Ive never been so happy watching a video, so proud of you man. Its crazy to think all of this has happened in about a years time
Nick, I offer you my respect for not doing what dozens of so-called respected Pogo UA-camrs are doing by kicking Niantic while they are down...and for what, some clickbait? I say it should have been addressed as Nick has, discuss it so the company can make the necessary changes and be done with it. At the end of the day, it's still just a game, yes we're passionate about it, but let's not blow it so far out of proportion. Niantic made mistakes to be sure, but they are doing all they can to make it right by us, the players. Props to you Nick for finding the positives in this, meeting your fans, sharing the experience with us and not just selling out for some extra views. I was a "fan" before, now I see him as someone I'd call a friend.
I'm a simple man. Nick drops a video and I watch it.
wut
Wesley Hewitt Yaaassss
Nick is not a Sell out or other UA-camrs .. Real fans stand up✊🏾
Nsibbs Not when its always cut Niantic from slack, The event wasn't as bad as people say, being fine with rural and suburban gameplay sucking, regional exclusives unless you pay niantic money or cheat via spoofing. Niatic limiting collecting of pokecoins to 50 a day a most. Unown being more rare then legendary, etc, etc ,etc, etc, etc.
Nsibbs i am a fan. but you need to admit it. pokemon go fest was a win for fsuatl. and a loss for all legit pokemon go players. i hete spoofers but im just saying gofest was a fail. anyway i luv nick and niantic nomatter what.
why would he be a sellout?
Nsibbs diot the one u should stand up is ur incapable brain. this guy stole silph road harwork and Pokemongohub but you are disabled so you should be ok liking the thief nick
Ashh Ketchup lol. you saying mozard should have killed him self because he played an instrument he did not invent himself. i respect the silphroad and the pokemon go hub. as nick does and he mentions them in his videos. nick is an entertainer and tells the info that silp, or hub does and more+ in entertaining way. i follow myself the pokemon go hub and the silphroad. so i dont get your point. so tell me?
I loved this video. It just made me so happy and brought me to tears. I love how you saw all the good through the bad. Thank you for all your hard work!!
Regardless of whether the 2017 festival was good or bad, it was good that there are people like you who took the time to document the event.
Because the 2017 festival was a historic event.
You are successful because you look for the positive within the negative! Keep up the great work. From a grandmother who is at a higher level than my teenaged grandson!! Yep....older peeps like Pokémon Go too!
100% this, wish more ppl did that.
This made me so happy seeing how stoked everyone was
Bailey Troy I'm very happy to have a player like Nick be our representative to niantic. The large portion for his suggestions and builds to the game were very strong and were made for the good of the community and the game overall.
If you have no evidence to support your attack on his integrity, best to keep your cynicism to yourself and let other people be happy
OMG!... the line of people and all the love coming back at you, Nick brought tears to my eyes. You bring so much joy to so many people... you have raised this game to a whole new level of communication and connection.. thanks for everything...
Nick, this is by far your coolest intro yet. The way everyone cheers for you and the music. Just goes to show how many people you have influenced and all the great things you've done.
@Trainer Tips it was so great with the throwback music in there, I got the chills! Seeing all the support from the fans and everyone come out for the legendarys was so inspiring too!
oh and i got goosebumps when the crowd cheer you walking in!! lol
ya me to
ThatGamerDad same thing man. Same thing.
Adam Boyd lol
ThatGamerDad me too!!!
i remember when you only had only 300 subscribers LITERALLY. So proud of everything youve done, all the things youve done for all of us, for the whole community, and most of all, i'm proud of your success. i been watching you from when you had your preview of pokemon go with you and your friend juan. keep up the great work trainer tips, your the best.
That goosebumps moment when the people in line knew who he was and everyone started cheering and clapping. That was the moment he knew it was worth all this work.
Nick's POKÉMON GO FEST 2017: WHAT YOU DIDN'T SEE ONLINE but every time Nick misses an Unown play "Hello Darkness".
Played in my head when he lost the Tyranatar actually! haha
By now if people don't realize bad news gets more views, wake up. Props to Nick for not being negative, what a real sell out would do.
Chef Cool Guy not really bad news but on this case bad news is what the public wanted to hear
How to make sure next year's go fest is a success:
1. Do NOT provide tickets that scalpers can snipe and resell for ridiculous prices.
2. Do NOT limit the event to only one enclosed area. Just go city wide.
3. Stop obsessively attempting to dodge spoofers. ANY limitation put forth to block spoofers will inconvenience legit players too. Always. I myself know how to spoof and yet I went to the event in person and by the way, spent well over $1,000 to do so. Spoofers gonna spoof. Big deal. There will always be thousands of die hard pokemon fans who will show up in person regardless. Why force them to wait in a 3 hour line? Why punish us for being legit?? Also, everyone knows the presence of spoofers made it possible for legit players to have the manpower necessary to defeat the ridiculously powerful lugia.
4.Provide lots of Merch for us to buy and WIN. (If the app crashes, we can go to the in person games and win merch instead of just sitting around boiling in the hot sun.)
5. Provide another great in app sale.
6. Do NOT choose a city that charges $40 for parking per night and $200 per hotel room! Are you kidding? That was an AWFUL idea! Every dime you save us on hotels is another dime we can spend in app.
7. Provide air conditioned/climate controlled shelters of some sort.
8. If you're going to change the spawns in the host city, please don't force those without a ticket to wind up stuck with nothing but natu. I know for a fact that Chicago has great spawns in that area normally, but on the day of the event the spawns were suspiciously trash...
1. Agreed. The solution is to explicitly state that tickets are not for resale. Not doing tickets at all would cause the mob of people to be too large and unsafe.
2. City wide would possibly cause issues for the city itself. It would have to be a smaller city of maybe 10k residents with 1500+ acres of decent pokestops. Then, Niantic would have to get approval from the city to have people wandering throughout the streets and they'd have to close off a huge section of the city. That's what I think would be best for the event.
3. Spoofers are playing the game illegitimately. Period. The reasons that this is bad have been elaborated in much more detail elsewhere. It is a big deal. The bottleneck in the end was getting through the gates. A good solution would be a city-wide event with places that they give out QR codes for scanning anywhere in the city to activate the event Pokemon. Also, it was not spoofers who allowed us to beat the raids... we definitely were able to do that on our own. The manpower was there in person.
4. There was a merch tent, but it was not advertised well. The winning of prizes would be awesome.
5. Agreed.
6. That was annoying, but there's not an easy way around that. In order to have the housing for up to 20k people, there would need to be many hotels, thus a larger city felt necessary, and higher prices were to be expected. I'd love to go to a smaller city with a lot of hotels, though.
7. Agreed.
8. I had no idea about that. Kinda sucks, but with a larger venue, like a whole city, more tickets could be given out.
Most of us have you to thank for our progression and success through the game. Thanks for everything you do Nick, keep it up!
Even though the Go Fest had a lot of bad, I can't help grinning like an idiot watching all the good from it. Can't have one without the other.
I wish I had a raid crew to do legendaries with :/
Same
NightowlCO2 same I have no legendarys
NightowlCO2 find a Facebook group
That's a smart idea
NightowlCO2 If you live near a decently big city i would try to find a raid chat on facebook so you can team up with People
You deserved every inch of respect from that crowd who waited 2 hours to meet you. You are real , not fake to have more views. That what we like. Continue your great work Nick , from Québec Canada
Thank you for sharing your story for GO Fest. We had a few people in our local group who were lucky enough to attend. And while they said there were set backs they honestly loved it and enjoyed their time there. Especially the rare Pokemon and experience.
Side note: This video made me cry. It was so heart warming to see you and the other youtubers interact with fans and give us one of the many stories in the first ever event.
DAAAMMNN THAT INTRO WAS SO LIT NICK!
Who else loved it when brandon/mystic7 asked his brother if he thinks it was a success and he said yes then the crowd roared in the background 😂
More like booed
DeluxeUltraGaming I immediately unsubbed after seeing that clip gg Mystic7
Haha I liked it better when he asked the kid if he was having a good time
"personal success"
Very sick at the moment so can't work - watching this has made me smile throughout. So proud and happy for you! This moment is yours forever. The cheers for you as you walked up to the event was magic. So nice to see fellow Tripsters!!!
Major respect for you bud and how you accepted every single person who wanted a photo with you and remained so incredibly positive and genuine to each one and not "ugh wow fine... let's take this effing photo". That's so refreshing to see. Keep it up my friend!
Nick is human, but the thing that makes him the most commendable is his genuine honesty, and integrity. Hard to find someone with his caliber in this world. Gawd bless, Papa bless.
I'm really waiting to see all of the videos of the UA-camrs catching Legendaries *NOW!* Seeing you guys battle and catch everything guaranteed was getting boring to say the least. Good luck, Nick!
This was like a mini movie! Excellent content as always.
ZenMasterSwish I agree giving 100% catch rate for so long defeats the purpose of having legendary it makes them common.
Aaron Ramirez
Not only that, but there's literally no substance or sense of joy/accomplishment watching other UA-camrs get a guaranteed catch. Might as well watch them catch a Pidgey. At least those breakout. Glad Nick gave us actual content to enjoy.
It's nice to see someone finally look back on GO Fest with some positivity. Watching this video is the first time I've really felt like I missed out by not being there. Just the chance to meet up with so many others that love the game, and meet some of the people who represent this community... That in itself is something special. If they ever do a full blown event in the UK, I'll be there, and Nick, I hope you will too! You've got plenty of fans here who would happily queue for a meet up!
Thanks so much for this video. It looks like you definitely had a lot of fun. I was was just talking to a group of hunters that I've been a part of since last summer and we all have thoroughly enjoyed this most recent event and can't wait until the next new legendary shows up. Pokemon go has allowed me to meet new friends and reconnect with some old ones. Pokemon go, best mobile game, PERIOD!
thank you very much for everything Nick.
NICK can i take picture? ya sure × 1000000 times.😅
I would love a pic with him too
Strawberrysunset23 me too
This is the best pokemon go fest video I've seen. I'm glad to see so many fans came out to show support for trainer tips channel and nick. But remember Nick what you seen in Chicago is only a sliver of the support you have worldwide. thank you
I feel like that was a really good video. It really captured the spirit of what Pokemon go is meant to be. I feel like that's what went wrong at Pokemon go Fest the people that didn't have a good time there were there strictly for the game. But that's not what it's about it's about the community it's about all of us having the dream of being 10 years old and being able to go out and catch Pokemon and I feel like your video really captured the essence of that dream that's inside of all of us and the true essence of Pokemon go. Despite all the hiccups it was about that dream.
Nick we all know the truth #PokemonGOFest was a 'W' ....granted it took til the evening, but a 'W'....and us who couldnt go had great weekend/week of these bonuses!!!
ThatGamerDad "everyone" is blind then and this isn't positivity this is bordering on delusion :/
GrizzlyRizzy sorry that you're bordering on negativity then. Hope you get the help you need
+
NerdyEquinox what are you talking about?! Everyone already has a chance to get a legendary. Do a raid
iFlyPancakes - Your Average your name suites you. That the only reply you deserve.
One of the best TrainerTips videos I've ever seen. Great Job Nick and thank you for the continued videos.
Hey Nick! Since the spawn of Lugia and Articuno Orlando, FL has been crazy with raiding parties. It's bringing together all three teams on FB chat groups and the Discord app to organize daily raids from morning to night. Huge groups are moving as one to each legendary raid and celebrating when we catch em, and offering similar stories for those uncaught.
Thank you for all you do, and your continued positivity no matter what happens in your personal and PoGO life.
Keep rocking and good luck with the next two legendary birds!
Thanks for showing Go Fest in a more positive light. It's so awesome to see so many people show up to your signing and stopping you for photos. That's what it's all about
NICK is the best pokemon UA-camr.
Hey Nick, thanks for the quality content buds.
Awesome video! I had a blast meeting you, Rev and JT and truly enjoy hearing a positive spin on the event. I only caught 4 Pokémon inside the park and also caught the final raid Tyranitar. For me, and I think most people who were there would agree that the event started once the radius was expanded. It was a great feeling running to the first legendary raid with thousands of players who truly love the game. That day proves without a doubt the game is not dead: we crashed cell phone service, some got angry and anxious and yet we all united as a community at the end of the day. All in all, I thought it was a wonderful experience and will be attending next year.
Your positivity is contagious bro! Sorry I didn't find you until later in the day at Chicago Fest. I'm sure you were tired and ready to leave, but it was so cool getting to meet you. You're a chill dude and I love watching your videos. You give me motivation to do what I love. Maybe some day I'll follow my dreams like you have! Keep doing you my dude. You're inspirational!
Nick great job man honestly this is beautiful ✌️👍😊
What we didn't see, because 95% of the streaming was just an image...
pi I thought I was the only one!!
13:20 Dude I was getting emotional watching that. I'm thrilled to see THAT MANY PEOPLE able to set aside technical issues and forget about them for a minute just to see you.
It makes me emotional because I understand and I want to be that way...Making content that helps and makes people say "Hey! That's Brian Spero!"
I when go into details but...Let's just say my in development female empowerment film SPEND TRUST TO MAKE TRUST finally goes into production...I hope it helps. I just started so I'm ready to wait however long it takes...
WOW this video was really amazing! I really enjoy seeing the happiness this game brings to everyone. How it brings people together. I have met so many new people and made friends that will last a lifetime. I agree it was great to see the magic again just like when the game first launched. Stay awesome NICK. - VRose
Seems to me this is a very balanced video - top work Nick. We get to see what went wrong AND what didn't.
BTW, the Legendaries started in Sydney very soon after Fest would have ended in Chicago.
Went out to the city and there were lots of people at every Legendary raid we went to - I think 15 was the least in any raid we did.
As always another good video. I didn't want this to end! You're right, Nick, this is the side we did'nt see. This is what I love abt you, these vid are so intelligently made. Mahal ka namin, Nick! :)
If you think this video, wasn't Nick speaking freely, you need to rewatch the video and Nick's older content. Everything from the way Nick spoke to using music from Ember, which he used a lot in the earlier days of the channel, completely speaks to the fact that this is truly what happened at GO Fest.
Thank you very much Nick for showing all the positive happenings at Chicago. And thank you too to all the fans out there that supported Nick in person. You guys rock
Trainer Tips has guided me and inspired me to play the game and never stopped playing the game. I felt like I was never alone in my Pokemon Go experience in the past year. Thank you Nick for the wonderful videos that you have provided us and guided us to this whole Pokemon Go journey. More fun moments awaits and looking forward to see more of your videos!
yes positivity has to keep moving forward we have a game that I’ve been waiting for my hole life I am not going to be mad about it!
+
The Rodney Mullen of Pokemon Go! Nick!
This is why I love this community so much.
Goes to show even with technical difficulty, you can still make the most of it and have a great time!!
This should be on trending rn
Loved this video so much. It's a special one indeed. Thank you for all your hard work Nick! Your fans appreciate you.
If Nick didn't get laid in Chicago, then nobody can. He was more popular at GoFest than Lebron in Cleveland
ofcourse he got laid, he said so himself at 1:55 in the video
5:02 she said hi no picture no nothing just cut to next frame. my boy got the digits. thic and asian 😂😍
He certainly could have, but as he was there for work and to game and connect with other UA-camrs, fans of his work, etc., he was probably too busy and distracted. Besides, I suspect Nick to be the type that isn't interested in casual encounters, but who knows?
kill joy lol. jk
Rashad Elliott you're gross
I didn't went to Go fest, but this last week is been amazing playing the game. I've met so many people, is really overwhelming to see so many people playing the game again on the streets. Definitely this became one of my favorite videos on this channel because it perfectly describes why we love the game and all the fun we have playing it and how cool is the Pokémon Go community
*NICK is THE BEST* POKEMON GO UA-camr EVER!!!
Hopefully Niantic learned from their mistake and will bounce back from it hard.
Nick honestly the positivity you bring to the pokemon go community is crazy! Watching your videos has been a big part of whats kept me playing the game, glad we got someone like you out there representing socal ✌️
Nick, I've gotta say that swing this video brings such joy to me seeing everyone so happy to come together and play Pokémon go. This could be your best video. I'm so happy I got to meet you at go fest. Keep being awesome and making great content.
Thank you nick for letting us know the real news your the real one 🤘🏼 come see the content! hope to meet you one day!

BumBoy GO you're*
The thing I like about nick is he can turn the disaster pokemongo fest and see the good side of it Like if u agree
gets paid to talk about the good side*
Pr△sm or nick is just an optimistic person
How? He literally shows the bad and the good.
and than counters it right away?
Do you even know how big of a law suit he could get for stating he ISN'T getting paid to talk well about Niantic/PokeFest and actually be getting paid??? No way he would risk that at all.
So glad to see someone else stayed positive about Go Fest. Sure there were hiccups, but me and the group I was with had a blast roadtripping to Chicago from St. Louis for the weekend for it. We made so many memories with each other and made acquaintances with random people all over the city while walking from legendary to legendary. No regrets.
I drove 10 hours and a selfie with Trainer Tips was the only thing I missed. I had an amazing time with my family and I will be standing in line for the next event as well. It was a struggle, but I feel like they definitely went above and beyond to make up for struggles we had. I got everything and then some because we got to get out and see other parts of Chicago that I hadn't planned. Thank you for posting a positive video, because most of the people I talked to had a positive experience.
I wish I could have gone to PoGo Fest, ..O well.. Maybe next year
All of those I have talked about who went said despite what happened they would go again, and it was totally worth it.
I was one of the people unable to load the game for about 6 hours of the fest. It only worked for me if we stood in the far corner of the park (ATT) and we only learned about that near the very end. That being said I I was amazed at how positive everyone remained. It was great to meet players from all over the world and share our love for this game. Near the end, i started to get pretty bummed and was ready to chalk Go Fest up as an interesting life event that didn't go as planned when they announced for the second time that the event had been extended to a 2 mile radius from the park. My wife and I decided to seek our fortunes out in the city and the minute we walked outside of the gates everything changed. The game started working, people were having a great time and we were able to catch the rare Pokemon we came for. As the night progressed the streets were flooded and the sense of community was amazing. You could see thousands of people roaming downtown catching Pokemon. It was a sight to see. When the legendary raids started things got even better. Players gathered and the sheer number of participants in the raids was amazing. In my neighborhood on the north side of Chicago, I had never seen another player in my local raids. Now I was playing with thousands of other Pokemon enthusiasts. It made the whole day worthwhile.
In my opinion, Niantic redeemed themselves by working very hard on workarounds, giving us updates, and some nice perks. Ultimately, they provided a memorable experience that I very much enjoyed.
With all that being said the people I feel bad for are the kids. While there were way more adults than children at Go Fest, I didn't see as many kids out playing after the Fest hours ended when the game actually became playable for the majority of users. If there was any group of people who really lost out on Go Fest it was the kids who couldn't control when it was time to go and maybe weren't allowed to roam the streets of Downtown Chicago at 10:00 pm. Even the perks including the gold and the Lugia won't really make up for not being able to play the game and catch some of the rarer stuff that appeared later and was incredibly easy to catch. Honestly, I'd love to see Niantec offer a special virtual event for kids that increase the number of rare spawns near them to make up for the game not working for 90% of the day and becoming most playable at a time when a lot of players had already given up. I understand that it may not be feasible.
I loved Pokemon Go Fest and hope they give Chicago another chance next year to make up for the issues.
All I can say is WOW!!! Nick, I know you have a lot of subbies and followers, but to actually see all the beautiful people standing in line waiting for you gave me goosebumps!!!
This video made me smile.
This video made me in tears :')
after watching one of your videos i always want to go out and play the game. thanks for over a year of amazing content, i really appreciate your work nick!
Have to say, despite the issues in Chicago, pokemon go has been crazy in my area. Have never been able to play with so many people, even at launch. It's been great. Love your channel Nick, never let the haters get to you. :)
I'm spreading this to every single human I know. Not for pokemon. But for how wonderfully beautiful we are as humans. Why can't we just love each other like this. So wonderful nick. Just speechless and in crying mode.
