Trust me. I know. I’m level 48 and can’t level up because I have no friends to trade with to complete required quests. Working retail around the holidays really exposes the materialism and selfish nature of society. Once you look behind the curtain it’s hard to experience the magic anymore. Pokémon Go is no stranger to losing its magic either.
Weekly paid tickets and the release of max mushrooms were the nail in the coffin for me. I’m going free to play and barely opening my game now. Mainline game max mushrooms are used to permanently change a dynamax pokemon to gigantamax. This would have been a great way to allow rural and smaller communities to have access to gigantamax Pokemon. Instead, you can pay money to MAYBE have a better chance of completing a raid that is already setup to make you pay if you want more than 1 gigantamax encounter. What an actual joke. It’s the equivalent of releasing the masterball and not having a 100% capture rate. Yes, different games and game styles but I’m here for Pokemon, not Niantic’s vision of Pokemon.
Niantic keeps locking Pokemon behind raids, then make it so I cannot do those raids in person, even though they seem to want people to play in person?? it makes no sense. I'm in one of those cities affected by their raid timer test, instead of spreading raids out more evenly throughout the day, a few times a day instead eggs will spawn on majority of gyms then hatch all at once. this has led to hours of downtime, usually *during* our limited warmer daytime hours. I'm in Canada. it's pitch black and below freezing by 5pm. these eggs are hatching early morning and after supper. seems I am going to miss getting these costumed Pokemon. Also, I feel you on the holidays being hard. Lean on that support you have, it will hopefully help a lot. this will be my second holiday season spent all alone, though last year I had some supports, this year I have literally none, hardest holidays of my entire life. Wishing nothing but love and improvement for anyone else also struggling
I disagree with one point Jinusla is that its very hard to dodge in Max battles and in Raid battles it works sometimes and certain times it doesn't move.
I hope the best for you man My depression around the Holidays is being Single. I think the biggest issue with go for me this year was the Monitzation with new pokemon
First, thank you for the opening. It's been a rough ride for me this year as well. Job loss is not fun and the job market is terrible right now. I do agree that it always seems like Niantic can only put out 1 or 2 good things a month and the rest are things we never asked for and don't want to do. Necrozma Day was awesome (not as much for me since I had other family obligations, but from the limited time I had, it was great). Now they're shoving egg hatching down our throats with the last few events. Egg hatching is one of the worst events since it's so random. Unless you're lucky enough to get the right things, you're out of luck to finish the challenges. At least with catch and raid challenges, you have more control over what you do and what you catch. It's like they can only give us so much... I look forward to the year in review and what fixes you have. I have some in mind already...
I agree with a lot of what you said in the beginning. I love Christmas and this is typically my favorite time of year, but this year's it's been very difficult for me because of a lot of things going on in my personal life.
I stopped playing for about a year and came back when Zekrom and Reshiram were introduced. The game was fun and the community was hyped for raids. With so many tickets and Niantic take, take, taking, the game has definitely changed for me. I just log in and do the bare minimum on a daily basis. I'm not giving any more money to Scamantic and I think I need to uninstall the game as it does have a tendency to suck the life out of you at times, which is something nobody needs. I hope your trauma heals soon and thanks for the video, Jinsula 🙂💫🙌
The amount of negatives outweighs the positives when it comes to the Pokemon Go. I also lightly use the word positive as Niantic has set the bar so low.
Kind words from the jump is much appreciated. When it comes to POGO, now it's only something I play when I have nothing else going on. Pokeball plus+ is constantly forgotten now so it's not that relevant to me anymore. My mindset now is that whatever pokemon I miss now will be released later on in a community day or a spotlight hour. And some pokemon that I looked forward to are either no longer relevant or their moves need reworked.
The bright side about this past weekend with the raid day was i able to get myself a Shundo weather boosted Necrozma from a raid invite which happened to be on a Friday the 13th. Which became my 13th Shundo lucky 13 for me. And it was like a early birthday present 🎁. First hundo and shiny all at once took me 460 encounters with Necrozma to get my Hundo and it shined.
Id love to see Niantic fix its feelings towards remote players....he first version of the new raiding system was great but now you cant join if the person remoted or invite after joining, trading is STILL in person only....for a mobile gamw this is idiocy and just promotes dumping people after youve earned XP from them. I could go on & on but they need to back off thier "mission" and just try to make a fun experience for everyone
Its the battle between making more profit and keeping the player base happy 😂 hope you have a great holiday and find all the support you need to go through this.
I don’t think that fixing the doge mechanic should negate all the other stuff that has previously happened with the game. There are some things I still wish they would add such as getting rid of eggs you won’t hatch, adding more levels, increasing the xp for catching pokemon, making certain bonuses better for events such as double xp or double stardust. Make remote raid passes more accessible through events or research, And my god, make it easier to catch starter Pokemon.
thanks for the kind words, Count. all the best to you and yours in 2025 :) as far as GO is concerned, I’m so sad that Niantic has virtually killed off all the excitement and love I have for the game… been here since 2016 but, now I don’t even work on spin or catch streaks (which had been my bare minimum with the app lately). open the game if there’s absolutely nothing else to do to shiny check and then send immediately to Bank. It seems pretty hopeless at this point to think Niantic will miraculously turn a new leaf but, I guess stranger things have happened.
Please let us Send and open multiple gifts at thr same time! It is sooo waste of time please implement quickcatch into the game already. Andd let us skip ANY unecessary screens. Such as long ass rocket grunts encounter and reward screen. This should have the option in setting page to skip them. Finally, PLEASE don't make pokemon AI dodge/attack in the first 2 seconds so we can do quickcatch peacefully. It is one of the most frustrating thing i ever encounter playing Pogo, especially in commday.😊
they forgot that the core game are the wild spawns... like they forgot to go out and catch. Thats my favorite thing to do. now what to we have in wild spawns anymore? We had like 2 new Mons this year that were introdused in the wild and that is just not acceptable. I dont raid anymore I dont hatch eggs anymore, I only open gifts and do gbl sometimes and this weekend the big cd will happen, then Ill tage a huge break... I miss the time, when they actually cared for the common player base and not the bots, spoofers and especally the whales...
That is the ENTIRE reason me and my husband play is for WILD SPAWNS and shinys! We collect our shiny dex, that’s what we do. The fact they have locked all of the new shinys behind raids and eggs is really shitty. Me and my husband have been playing every day and still haven’t come across a deidinne raid to complete our collection challenge.
@@The_Cherokee_Gypsy Dedenne seems to be seen in the daily insence. At least I've seen some fotos on Twitter (still calling it that) I really wish they would sell Pogo to an actual game company that does care about their customers... :( I miss the old days.
2024 was rough for PoGo, to say the least.. Shoot, the past two years in particular have been questionable at best.. However, I KNEW I wasn’t crazy about raid dodging! I’ve been raiding for so many years now, that I basically have it down to muscle memory, when needed. However, I noticed during the Necrozma raid day, the dodging window was HUGE and I swore I was seeing things!
I don't even bother to care really anymore. I just do my daily incense my daily catches my eggs hatches and collect my rewards other then that I barely be on pokemon go anymore. Been playing alot of TCG pocket
Hope your situation gets resolved for the best. As for POGO, I feel like a lot of the negative decisions by Niantic are over blown. I think a lot of the insanely high negativity is from a very vocal minority on the internet. I would bet most players aren't super into commenting online randomly. If people would keep in mind how Niantic designed the game and realize that the game is world wide and every single day people are dealing with certain issues that may impact gameplay it would help. So yeah, its December. Here in Iowa last saturday we had a freezing rain storm that coated a layer of ice over EVERYTHING. guess what I couldn't do, go raiding in person for Necrozma, or walk and hatch 2k eggs for the young and wise event. all the Australia players though didn't have that issue. I didn't go online and blast Niantic for not considering the weather in my area when planning an event. There is no reasonable way to accommodate every single players individual situation. Here is the game, here is how you play it, do what you can to make it enjoyable for you and take advantage of what you can easily access. As for the CONSTANT barrage of tickets that's just Niantic jumping on the same corporate soul sucking greed campaign that most companies go for in this current uber capitalist climate. Luckily most are optional and the game is still able to be enjoyed for free, or with the free gym coins. a rework and better coin rewards would be nice, but there are other options for free coins. Google rewards is one example, it tracks your location and if you visit a place, say costco for groceries it asks you to upload a copy of your receipt. you get like 12 cents for that. you take surveys for 30 cents. it adds up to free money that you can use to buy pokecoins for nothing more than living your life. Honestly I appreciate your constructive criticism, and hope you have a great holiday season. Niantic, be less greedy in the future, scale back the tickets and find a better middle ground. happy holidays
6:12 I’m seriously considering taking another sabbatical after the Unova tour because, over 2 years later, me personally, i haven’t gotten over the remote raid limits Count, i DERIDE this , i hate the fact that outside of Tour’s, Go Feast and Wild Area events, we can’t have Unlimted remote raids outside these events, than when we finally get them once ever 4 months, these mofo’s don’t have any remote raid box bundles 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Positive changes I'd like to see. Best buddying shadow mons lets you get rid of frustration outside of a rocket event. A shadow pokemon with frustration can learn an event move if you 2nd move it. A method to manipulate IVs (bottle caps for raising and berries for lowering). An easier way to earn Rare XL candy. I only got 1 rare xl candy for the entire Necrozma raid day.(maybe in addition to increased stardust GBL Master League weeks could have a chance at rare xls in the reward pool). Battle point system as a reward for GBL allowing more control over prizes. Honestly my biggest problem woth Niantic right now is their lack of communication. GBL has constant frame rate issues that havent been addressed and Master League is heavily pay 2 win with very few non-raid mons being viable. I'm not one of those players that want everyrhing handed to them, I personally love a good grind but trying to raise a Keldeo for ML is just tedious. Lets crank out some math here to show you what I mean. A non shadow/purified mon needs 296. Assuming I get 3 when I caught Keldeo thats 293. If I rare candy my Keldo to level 40 I will have an 80% chance at getting a Keldeo XL upon walkng it 20KM. I can freely excite my buddy down to 10KM. That would mean (including doing walked regular candy to xl candy). I would need to walk a minimum of 2,910 KM if i got a 100% xl walk rate. However it would more likely be around 3490 KM. If you were to walk the daily buddy limit distance (which I believe is 40KM a day) each day it would take around 72- to 90 days just to get the xls to fully max out one legendary. Keep in mind that would be 280 KM a week (the max reward secret bonus is 100km). Feels a bit bs to me especially say if someone were to raise a pokemon like this only for a new legendary to come along mid season to make a mon irrelevant or god forbid that mon gets a move nerf.
The ticketed events have a pretty easy solution. If we don't buy them, they'll stop offering. Content creators like you do good work pointing out the bad value tickets. Keep it up. If it feels like Pokemon Go is impacting your life negatively, stop. Figure out if there is a healthy way to move forward.
Okay, now I know I can dodge 😅 that’s really not intuitive about this game there’s a lot of things you don’t get explanation of. But thanks, now I can at least try. Also, those people who “mindlessly tapping “ might just don’t know about dodging at all, be kinder )
I don't like how you keep saying mindlessly tap on the screen if all of your Pokemon or level 50 and you can keep them all alive during a five-star battle without dodging
too many egg events lately with no real payoff, this last baby pokemon event challenge, got the first 3 one after the other, I couldnt get the munchlax, too many other candidates in the egg pool - I also have leftover 7s from the galaran corsola event and pointless 5s I picked up in between, down to just my free incubator now as for raids and raid based challenges, same deal, dedenne being in raid eggs is fine, but with the other costume ones in the 1* pool its impossible to find one, sinistea was the same and there were only both frillish as the alternative candidates, yet they were more common this game has its fun moments and then it has things that make it feel like a part time job you don't get paid for with the impossibleness of it all Life is the thing that get in the way while you're making other plans - I have no idea what you are going through, but if you need to take time off making videos, please do so, your adoring public will understand and eagerly await your return, I've seen so many youtubers burn out over the years and I don't want you to be next
I dont want to quit but I also don't want to stay in a sinking ship. Pokémon GO can be such a fun game when Niantic does things right. I guess I'm fighting for a better game that may not come.
@CountJinsulaOfficial ive thiugbt about it a few, it the pokefan in me, im waiting for a actual pvp ranking system, maybe live gym leaders. Badges... stop with raising the catch rate during event..
First of all love the ugly sweater, second hope you’re okay, third how I view the game Pokemon Go sure I have negatives and positives with the game but tbh I actually enjoy the game especially with my girlfriend who got me back into the game and we always play together whenever we see each other and I love playing the game with her because we are both big Pokemon fans. We have also done some duo raids together especially against Giratina Origin form, I do hope the game stays around for long periods of time despite all the ups and downs here’s to hoping for a good 2025 for the game.
I find it strange that it’s virtually impossibly to dodge in gmax battles
When It first came out I dodged every attack , now they changed it I’ve dodged 1 outa 100 attempts
they just changed the mechanic from regular raids, you have to swipe out of the center and not attack until the boss' attack is finished
Thank you so much for those kind words. I'm in the middle of moving \ packing / panicking and it made a difference ❤
I find it strange every single event . Even the weakest pokemon takes 3 to 5 balls to catch
It's because they want you to buy extra golden ras / ultra balls to catch them!
Noticed that as well.
I hate that it's the holiday event and there's no holiday wild spawns. :( Everything in raids or eggs. Anyway, I'd like to send you a hug.
Trust me. I know. I’m level 48 and can’t level up because I have no friends to trade with to complete required quests.
Working retail around the holidays really exposes the materialism and selfish nature of society. Once you look behind the curtain it’s hard to experience the magic anymore. Pokémon Go is no stranger to losing its magic either.
I relate with the working retail , it ain’t easy mentally but we gotta stay strong 🙏🏻❤️
My advice? Create a second account on a separate account to do so, at least until you're done with it.
Deleting EGGS 🥚 YES Please
Some eggs I just don’t care to hatch

How about them fixing the 'gyms under construction bug'. 4 or 5 months now.
Still happens and nothing fixed just more egg hatch events and paywalling
I hope the best for you man My depression around the Holidays is being Single. I think the biggest issue with go for me this year was the Monitzation with new pokemon

Hang in there, friend. It will get better.
No 😂😂
Positive changes I'd like to see.
Best buddying shadow mons lets you get rid of frustration outside of a rocket event.
A shadow pokemon with frustration can learn an event move if you 2nd move it.
A method to manipulate IVs (bottle caps for raising and berries for lowering).
An easier way to earn Rare XL candy. I only got 1 rare xl candy for the entire Necrozma raid day.(maybe in addition to increased stardust GBL Master League weeks could have a chance at rare xls in the reward pool).
Battle point system as a reward for GBL allowing more control over prizes.
Honestly my biggest problem woth Niantic right now is their lack of communication. GBL has constant frame rate issues that havent been addressed and Master League is heavily pay 2 win with very few non-raid mons being viable. I'm not one of those players that want everyrhing handed to them, I personally love a good grind but trying to raise a Keldeo for ML is just tedious. Lets crank out some math here to show you what I mean.
A non shadow/purified mon needs 296. Assuming I get 3 when I caught Keldeo thats 293. If I rare candy my Keldo to level 40 I will have an 80% chance at getting a Keldeo XL upon walkng it 20KM.

Feels a bit bs to me especially say if someone were to raise a pokemon like this only for a new legendary to come along mid season to make a mon irrelevant or god forbid that mon gets a move nerf.

too many egg events lately with no real payoff, this last baby pokemon event challenge, got the first 3 one after the other, I couldnt get the munchlax, too many other candidates in the egg pool - I also have leftover 7s from the galaran corsola event and pointless 5s I picked up in between, down to just my free incubator now
as for raids and raid based challenges, same deal, dedenne being in raid eggs is fine, but with the other costume ones in the 1* pool its impossible to find one, sinistea was the same and there were only both frillish as the alternative candidates, yet they were more common
this game has its fun moments and then it has things that make it feel like a part time job you don't get paid for with the impossibleness of it all
Life is the thing that get in the way while you're making other plans - I have no idea what you are going through, but if you need to take time off making videos, please do so, your adoring public will understand and eagerly await your return, I've seen so many youtubers burn out over the years and I don't want you to be next
I swear count wants to quit pokemon go. But he already making money.. like getting the dream job then ylu found out its bs
I dont want to quit but I also don't want to stay in a sinking ship. Pokémon GO can be such a fun game when Niantic does things right. I guess I'm fighting for a better game that may not come.
@CountJinsulaOfficial ive thiugbt about it a few, it the pokefan in me, im waiting for a actual pvp ranking system, maybe live gym leaders. Badges... stop with raising the catch rate during event..
You might need a break from Pokemon Go bud
First of all love the ugly sweater, second hope you’re okay, third how I view the game Pokemon Go sure I have negatives and positives with the game but tbh I actually enjoy the game especially with my girlfriend who got me back into the game and we always play together whenever we see each other and I love playing the game with her because we are both big Pokemon fans. We have also done some duo raids together especially against Giratina Origin form, I do hope the game stays around for long periods of time despite all the ups and downs here’s to hoping for a good 2025 for the game.
