I saw other youtubers named this event the worst event ever. Since they are all at level 50, it's easy for them to say that. I'm almost at level 47, and this event plus opening gifts on Com day is enough for me to get to the next level, so it's a great event in my mind
if you catch a single pokémon at a time and farm only that one with pinap berries then evo once you have enough candy. it is like really dumb but if you want to get stuff in this game you have to sell you’re soul
Completely wrong. It is so easy to gain candy... always saved them and never wasted them before level 50 just to get some XP like everybody did and now i have iver 1million candy in total 🤷♂️
@@by_nico you just stated it's easy to get candy but then went on to say you were farming candy all the way up to level 50 before even using it. I promise less than 10% of players are level 50. You didn't demonstrate how I am wrong at all.
I'm stuck on "evolve 3 pokemon" for step 2/3. I was at 2, I evolved 1, still said 2. I evolved another (so that's 4) still says 2. Evolved togetic, 2 shellmet and an eevee
I was thinking this wouldn't be great back when I thought it was just a guaranteed 1 XL candy - but with 2, it totally makes sense to do this. Use pinap-berries to catch pokemon to keep regular candy stock, and then evolve. I've been working on an XL Shadow Fire Ninetales to try out in Ultra League, and vulpix are out there... so I can catch them with pinap, evolve them and get the guaranteed 2 XLs. I already blasted my XL supply getting an Alolan Ninetales up to Ultra League level, but now I can possibly get enough again for the FIre Ninetales! Not a bad bonus at all.
Brandon, what do you suggest for obtaining Candy XL for Mythics or Legendaries that are not on Raids? We desperately need those candies for Master League.
exactly, normally its 100 candy = 1 XL candy - and to get any XL candy that matter its most likely a 50 candy or 100 candy evolve that needs to be done which is only a 50% or 75% bonus but still costs you alot of candy unless you're a massive whale with thousend of candy. Yeah, you get 2x XP but wtf does that do? 2000xp instead of 1000xp? kbruh.
I would not evolve for exp if its under 500, just in case you will need some for 2nd move unlock or powering up. anything above 500 is fair game in my opinion. be careful of doing it to things like metagross, XL candy is great but if you want a full team you are also gonna need need 1.5k normal candies saved up.
Oh most people aren't over it lmao if you go on twitter there's still more comments than likes telling people it's a garbage update, people like Brandon just don't need to care because they benefit from the update cause he can do as many irl raids as he wants
The bonus everyone should be talking about is the bonus for uninstalling the app is not waste time and money on a joke of a company like Niantic. Been a week since I uninstalled the app and best decision ever
Yet another event for all the 6+ year long players. Great that yall can get all the XL candies in the world now, while newcommers are locked out of remote raiding like you did to get all that candy. So double value for you, nothing for us. This will TREMENDOUSLY add to the power imbalance in master league.
This is quite true. I actually boycott the Master League for the most part, because of the fact that only people who can grind like mad, pay to play for raids, etc. can get the best pokemon for that League up to snuff to battle all the other guys who are doing that same thing. Not to mention the lack of variety in the Master League makes it rather boring compared to the other 2 (and more, with little leagues and special cups). I'm just not going to play to that level. Although I did just recently trade for a 100% IV gimmighoul. Unfortunately not lucky - but I am contemplating evolving that one when I get my 999 coins in case I ever decide to compete in Master League.
I mean fair enough but nobody used raids to get Pokemon that are useful for this event lmao 99.9% of players only use remote raids for legendaries which you can't evolve
@@xDbrad I think they were combining it all into a "legacy players' advantages" complaint. And they're not wrong. The raiding DID boost candy and candy XL and allow players to get 100% IVs on the Master League best-of. And the XL candy in the current event for players over a certain level will allow them to get XL pokemon for great or Ultra GBL that newcomers also will not be able to get by definition. The changes to remote raiding and an event like this do allow legacy players to have jumped ahead leaps and bounds beyond newcomers.
Zero motivation to play anymore. Spent $5,000 in 2022 & $3,500 in 2021. Havnt opened the app since Aprt 6th and I stand with the POGO community #HearUsNiantic

also already lvl 50, so the only reason for it is to rank high in the charts of "player with the most exp".

@@halamadrid6733 I mean they're not wrong even if they're level 50, getting XP this way even with the event isn't fast at all compared to other ways
the target audience of this video is incredibly small. I'm guessing 90%+ of players don't have the kind of candy available to mass evolve like this

In addition to Machoke and Haunter, Kadabra is free to evolve if coming from a trade. There are probably a few others.
There are tonnes he's just talking about some very relevant ones
Graveler and Phantump too!
Pumpkaboo, gurdur, boldore
Karrablast also. Its actually a reward for one of the current Blance Research sets.

Popped a lucky egg yesterday and got about 1.1 million xp just for evolving things lol
Princess’ hair looks so cute!!
I evolved 500 pokemon before this event just to complete the medal 💀
Could be worse and be me, transfered multiple groudons, kyogres, rayquazas, ho ohs and lugias at start of shellder spotlight hour :D
@@SmokerFace12 how is that worse? you’d gain nothing more from having them
@@BareBuilds yeah nvm, thought it was transfer candy, not evo candy
Brandon, what do you suggest for obtaining Candy XL for Mythics or Legendaries that are not on Raids? We desperately need those candies for Master League.
2 + accounts. Open long distance gifts for long distances eggs. Trade your legendary for distance hatched pokemon. Guaranteed XL candy
Walk 200 km a day for one month and you should be able to get enough
I used to remote raid legendaries using Pokeraid, and every day, I would trade 1 legendary to my son and get XL candy from long distance trades
Brandon is waiting of VALOR hero event 🔥💯
VALOR FOREVER!!!!!!!
Dont praise this event. Its trash. What are we gonna do with 1000 pidgey xls
exactly, normally its 100 candy = 1 XL candy - and to get any XL candy that matter its most likely a 50 candy or 100 candy evolve that needs to be done which is only a 50% or 75% bonus but still costs you alot of candy unless you're a massive whale with thousend of candy.

Yes lots of XL. Thx for the tips And …. I got the shiny Lapras 🎉✨💜🌺
is it worth evolving loads of pokemon if you've only got roughly around 50-300 candy for them?
I would not evolve for exp if its under 500, just in case you will need some for 2nd move unlock or powering up. anything above 500 is fair game in my opinion.
be careful of doing it to things like metagross, XL candy is great but if you want a full team you are also gonna need need 1.5k normal candies saved up.
@@labdullahlabdallah yea thats true, thanks
I would say if you have Over 1k candy
@@blkswrdzmn oh ok, i do have a fair amount of candy for those pokemon
Crazy how fast everyone got over remote raids
Oh most people aren't over it lmao if you go on twitter there's still more comments than likes telling people it's a garbage update, people like Brandon just don't need to care because they benefit from the update cause he can do as many irl raids as he wants
remote raid passes cost money anyway, theres not too many people who spend a ton on remote raids.
Wasn’t really a big deal to me. Didn’t affect my day to day playstyle.
I won't get as much out of this but good to know. Every little helps.
does anybody know if I can still get the extra XP if I evolve the pkmn and then immediately activate the egg?
Bump
No since you got the XP from evolving the Pokemon already, you have to activate the egg first
@@HOESDONTMATTER ^
When does this start??
Aww its tomorrow...
Wait nvm
Other youtubers: this is the worst event of all time
Me: so your telling me i get double XP and 2XL candies for evolve? Bring it on
Well good luck mass evolving for extra pidgey XL's and a waste of time that you could spend better ways getting XP lol
I just want a mass evolve function like please it would have been such a nice addition this event😅
Is it just me or when Brandon says oooooo is literal CRINGE bro😱🤩👌
Not just you
Agreed.
Somethings wrong if a literal 10 year old is calling him out for this lmao
What abt 400 candy evolution pokemon lol do we get 5 candy xls 😅🤣
Blanche isn't interracting with me, tho I can do the research. lucky me I have a load of traded machop, 4xXL for 25 regular candy
Mine too, I guess niantic made her sign an NDA
@@benkelly1712 rofl
i used an egg and grinded out 900k XP evolving today

No candys for me 😢
