    You should have walked further, till the footsteps vanished. That way we could have maximum amount of meters till the pokemon appears. (For example if I see a Pikachu on the list with 3 footsteps: well a Pikachu is within ** meters of me) Hope that makes sense, good video tho

    • @gabesnead4725
      @gabesnead4725 8 років тому

      I know, this is fairly inaccurate because there has been a pikachu with 3 steps like half a kilometer or more away

    • @Hartor70
      @Hartor70 8 років тому +12

      no i some times see the pokemon and it still says 3 steps it never goes down to 2 or 1 never and that way i cant track the hundreds of squirtles in my place

      Hartor 70 When you click on the Pokemon in your radar the thing on the bottom right will pulse green when walking the right direction, when you aren't, it won't pulse green

      @HaveABadSummer 8 років тому +5

      We have. It's been *several* days. This is absurd. And it's not just a glitch either. They purposefully disabled it (a core element of this game) so that the servers could handle the addition of more countries. I don't know why they can't fucking fix the fucking servers with the fucking billions that they are raking in.
      Sorry Niantic, but if you need to remove core elements of your game so that you can bring it to other countries, might I suggest at least just keeping it in the U.S. for now?

    I have a question, when is the ideal time to throw a pokeball? Some sources are saying when the ring around the pokemon is smallest, others say when it is largest.

    • @trnrtips
      @trnrtips  8 років тому +14

      When the ring is closest to the center

    • @zSOULZx
      @zSOULZx 8 років тому +23

      but you have to land it inside the circle so bigger is easier but smaller is better but harder

    • @milesorrion
      @milesorrion 8 років тому +2

      Throw the ball to land in the circle for bonus xp, and also for greater catch rate. Smaller the circle you're landing inside of means greater catch rate and bonus xp for the catch.

      But if u r an accurate thrower wait for it to get smaller

    @spacie89 8 років тому

    When you re-do this video to determine the upper limit of the 3-steps pokemon, it would be great to draw circles within circles. The most innercircle representing the 40m radius (so a 80 meter circle in diametre), the second 20 meters outside of that, and the third, 30 meters outside of the previous, and then the outer circle outside which it vanishes (the upper limit of the 3steps pokemen). Awesome video, man!

    sadly, nearly every Pokemon has three steps. The methodology did not reveal the distance, but the minimum distance. We know it's more than 90m, but from what I've seen, it could be much more, around 300+ meters.

  • @justinarney3050

  • @isuckatguitar12
    @isuckatguitar12 8 років тому +5

    But how far must you walk from the 3rd footstep for the pokemon to drop from your nearby list? I typically have only 3 step pokemon in my nearby list when I'm home, and no matter what direction I walk the steps 90% of the time don't go down. In fact I typically discover another pokemon that was previously not even on my nearby list before the steps on the others go down.
    I never try for 3 steppers because of this issue. Its simply impossible for me to find them because the list never tells me if I'm getting closer or further. Hell, I've been at a gas station about 6 miles from my house and saw a 3 step pokemon, drove home and after about 5 miles I checked my list and it was still on my list at 3 steps..

    • @Bellriver1
      @Bellriver1 8 років тому +1

      According to the video 3 steps when the Pokemon is at the top of the list is about .1 kilometer away from your position, the closest Pokemon on your list should be the top left one, also the 3 footprints seem to be glitched and don't change at the moment.

    • @gtl8435
      @gtl8435 8 років тому +4

      its because the games is curently broken so all pokemon are 3 steps all the time, if you notice this video was made on the 15th before the glitch started happening

    • @isuckatguitar12

    Gotta say, as a science undergrad, your experimental method is pretty on-point in terms of execution and repetition.

  • @leonzhou31
    @leonzhou31 8 років тому

    Awesome experiment but I think the most useful part of this test is left out. What is the maximum distance away from a Pokemon in which it will still show up on the nearby list? Knowing that 3 footprints is over 90 meters away is not so helpful unless we know the cap on that. It's easy to track something down if you've gone from 3 footprints to 2, you just keep moving in the general area but the hardest part is figuring out when to change directions if it is stuck on 3.

      Yeah, If you want a certain pokemon, the more close your walk towards its position it would switch more close to the 1st position. If it is getting closer to the 9th position then/or it disappears, turn around and walk a different direction and it should re-appear.

    There's still one thing I have a question about. After walking to the 3rd footstep at 90 meters, exactly how far can you keep walking until stop showing the Pokemon on the nearby list? That way we can know how the range of the 3rd step like we do with the others (40m - 60m - 90m - ???). Hope that question makes sense

    this roughly corresponds to 100s of feet. 100ft=30m, 200ft=60m and 300ft=90m
    Also it'd be cool to also do this for the limit of the "nearby", as in how far away do you have to be before a pokemon first appears on the nearby (I've heard that the nearby 3x3 grid also acts as an indication for how close they are, with top left being closest and bottom right being furthest away).

  • @chic0latin0
    @chic0latin0 8 років тому

    Maybe instead walk away till 1 foot print appears and place a cup. When second foot print appears place another when third print appears place a third than walk away until it disappears and place the last one. This way it's good to see exactly how far away a Pokemon would be. Since you've already done most of it you could do a short vid if you using pika and one cup and measure the distance of how far until it disappears showing us about how far a pokemon would possibly be as soon as it spawns

  • @josephthompson9016
    @josephthompson9016 8 років тому

    the three paw print thing is broken they're all 3 paw prints until you're less than 5m. you can track a pokemon by how far up or down it moves on the list. if it goes up you're going in the right direction if it goes down you're going the wrong dorextion.

    @edelweissspartaner3232 8 років тому

    Thanks for the research man, if you consider that the steps actually mark an area (so m^2) the difference becomes a lot bigger than the 60m-40m=20m or 90m-60m=30m with the areas being 40m^2=1600m^2 60m^2=3600m^2 and 90m^2=8100m^2 ;)

  • @fortunateson6070
    @fortunateson6070 8 років тому

    I just measured how far the circle on the map goes before it bleeds out by looking at how far it went out from the front curb of my house to behind my house. I used the distance measurement in google maps and it came out to 137.33 ft (41.86 m). So if/when the tracking comes back, when the pokemon has 1 footprint it is somewhere within that circle that pulses around your character. The 2nd circle that pulses out from the first only measures about 10m before it disappears.

  • @ToiletDuckify
    @ToiletDuckify 8 років тому

    This is a great video, but it would have been useful to know how far before the pokemon vanish, essentially giving a distance of 90-??? Meters to get a feel for the 3 footprint distances. Some people are saying it's a 150m maximum, while others are saying anything up to 250m. That's a lot of distance to cover with an unknown distance.

    I get three footprints and I live on the side of a mountain in Australia with bush down the back. I walk 90m and I'm likely to get bitten by a real snake than find an Ekans lol. I'm surprised there's no Kangashan spawning around here though because there are wallabies and kangaroos everywhere here. Ps, other than Charmander the only Pokemon I've got here are from using the two free incense.
    Hopefully Pokemon Go fixes things a bit for us semi/rural players eventually.

    @AndyRodginous 8 років тому

    This was super helpful! Thanks!! Although, this won't be too helpful right now since Niantic is keeping the footsteps at 3 while they fix the servers. However, idk if it will help at all with future experiments (and you probs already know this), but if a bunch of pokemon at 3 footprints away and you start getting closer to one, it will move future up the list of nearby pokemon. Also, the box will flash a green box around it, if you are walking in the right direction to the pokemon (at least that's what I think)

  • @slim6y

    I assume, when the paws are working again, that three paws will represent anything greater than 100m, how close will a Pokemon have to be to show up in the "nearby"?
