QOTD: I only bother with the route to the grocery store near my house. The solution is simple and has been said countless times now: Routes need to GUARANTEE at least 1 cell. Walking a route and not get any cells is asinine.
Lemme tell u that even though it does pathetic damage, its a huge buff for complete zygarde, a higher chance of debuffing the opponent for a mon with such a huge stat product...
Qotd: I believe Niantic should allow PoGo players to start routes remotely and end it whenever they want, similar to one of those fitness trackers that takes note of your walking pace or how far you have walked, but the distance travelled will be displayed at the top while being able to see the overworld. The routes can give up to 500 encounters daily, with the drop-rate of 1,3 or 5 zygarde cells are 10, 5 and 2 percent respectively and about five encounters can spawn at 200m at a time. (About 10km walked to exhaust all daily encounters) There may be a small chance, such as a 1 in 4k chance, for a zygarde 10% encounter, no iv floor.
QOTD: Routes are a good feature, but I honestly always forget to do them when I’m out and about playing. I would like it and I feel like I would do them more if Niantic marked route start point Pokestops/gyms like they do with showcases.
QOTD: I'm done with routes since I've finished 100% Zygarde and won't do more until they release the shiny version, to improve they could make some kind of streak reward like with Pokestops and catching, like if you do a route every day for 7 days you earn like 10 or 15 Zygarde cells.
The only thing they need to do to get people clambering to do routes is put zygard in raids. Can't imagine how many people aren't doing them because their zygard isn't worth investing in. I don't know how much I'd love seeing it so commonly though
I would do routes if you could have a small chance like galarian birds to encounter zygarde from doing them, which could be shiny at a rate of 1/64 for example
QOTD: simply adding premium rewards to routes or the fat dude at the end of them would be enough. Similar rewards to winning showcases or maybe even a chance at a raid pass would make them worth doing
QOTD: i have a couple paths and a park by my house ive made routes at ive done like 100 times on one alone. ive also slowly noticed others start to use em which makes me happy
I did routes every day (sometimes twice a day) for specific rides that I did for my daily work out... But I dropped them the minute the weather starts getting worse. The surfacing for routes is abysmal, it's really easy to forget it's there, imagine if you had to go to separate menu like the team rocket scanner to find things like gyms or power spots. So yeah, seeing something dynamic on the screen would help to remind me. I like how it's one of the few features with synergy with the vivillion quest as well. Honestly I'd like to see more research that asks for route completion, I get mandatory AR research every day and my phone doesn't even support ARcore.
QOTD: i mean they added the galar birds on the incense so why not add a different not yet released legenrary pokemon as a rare spawn or just put the lake trio on these routs without the region lock. I mean they can already spawn in the world so why not spice the Route up a bit with those.
Unfortunately it's unlikely to ever happen. I've explained on stream in more detail a few times but my old pc crashed & I had to completely reset it. I lost all my files including all the custom presets I built from scratch so at that point I just gave up.
@CallumOnToast ah damn yeah I remember you mentioning that now. Damn that's a shame. I have sorry, in too deep, and middle of the night on my playlist lol. You had a serious talent there man, maybe one day consider messing around again. Even if it's from scratch.
Im gonna put earthquake back on my shiny shadow politoed, I was being dumb wanting to try ice beam but nah… im telling you I’ve wanted eq on it 7/10 times. Let’s nuke some clodsires, I’ve ran that Pokémon once and that was literally the one time i battled you, because i was playing around with shadow shiny cacturne that i just started using, and just put 2 bulky mfers in the back just to catch on, shadow cacturne once boosted delivers SATISFYING damage😅
I just wanted to tell everybody, I have 25 cells and im not un a hurry to get more😅 screw zygarde max, it’s like running azu in the early days of pvp. Such an irritatingly op tank bully dragon btch😂 this is absolutely not directed at you callum, you’re the spice lord! You can use whatever you want at times!!!

Omg, if they put a reward screen up that would be an automatic improvement over squinting at the screen to double check if you got the zygarde cell
Love seeing a theme team actually hold its own.
Bulldoze definitely was a nerf
More like a huge rework

I think you've been running Gunk shot on Arbok all this time.
My bad 😅
QOTD:make birds only a slight bit more common on routes and then they have a practical use that everyone wants other than cells

Maybe in kalos tour 2026 realise shiny zygarde
@@HardWork-y3d Maybe!!
They do have a streak thing but it only rewards items that suck 😅

I don't know how much I'd love seeing it so commonly though
QOTD: I've only done 1 route, not doing another unless they make it simpler and easier to get cells and rewards/etc
GL 50% is the only reason why I don't do routes much anymore. If we got another Zygarde (non p2w), I'd do them more.
I would do routes if you could have a small chance like galarian birds to encounter zygarde from doing them, which could be shiny at a rate of 1/64 for example
Niantic could have a greater chance to find a calarían bird if you use the inciense while doing a route
QOTD: I complete them when I remember to but not very often. If they could guarantee a cell each route then I'd be more enthusiastic about doing them.
I wish you could choose to claim MP or sugared cells after walking 2 km
2:52 that was trap callum
QOTD: I created a route in between my classes that I walk most days, so I do those because it’s convenient. I don’t do any others.
@KelKav Same, I made a route on my daily bus route; got a bunch of cells through that 😂
I would do routes daily if it didn’t have to be between 2 stops because my dog needs a walk, but my house has barely anything near it

Why would anybody expect a hyper beam fifty percent Zygarde 😂😂😂
Qotd I created one between a spot close to home and a coffee shop LOL, got me a bunch of cells. They're not as bad as people make em out to be.
Yep I still do routes, already have my complete form Zygarde, collecting cells again and I'm already more tham halfway now
2:18 But it was Gunk Shot 😮
Been running GL Zygarde for a while myself and low-key it’s so fun
it's not sludge wage but gunk shot
My bad 😅
QOTD: not regularly, but that’s less about the routes themselves and more about not wanting my mobile device to be rained on
i have a 100 percent Zygarde , if i change the form do i need to collect another cells to evolve again?
QOTD: i mean they added the galar birds on the incense so why not add a different not yet released legenrary pokemon as a rare spawn or just put the lake trio on these routs without the region lock. I mean they can already spawn in the world so why not spice the Route up a bit with those.
Love You Bro❤
Umm. Put Zygarde in the route encounter pool?!
Yes. lol that’s absolutely never happening (you know that tho) but pls niantic lol
Love the theme team!
Callum when are we getting some new music drops 😁 I'm SORRYYY

Did you buy an external harddrive?@CallumOnToast
qotd: yes coz i got 4 elite tms over last few months so definitely worth walking a route everyday😊
Callum in his happy place
Hey Callum, we'd love to see an account tour if you could sometime!
Maybe I'll include it during the end of year video I do. Or my next stream. Not sure but it's a good idea
QotD: I do routes. I need 68 cells to get the Complete Forme.
Do you have a 10% zygarde for the ultra league
Well no because I have this one haha
I just do routes to earn those hearts to best buddy some pokemon.
Pretty difficult to play with this team. Meta is full of mud slappers plus Clods and Diggersby. Poison is not as strong as it used to be last season.
Qotd: def could add more rewards like charged tms instead of fm tms...
I don't think it should be instead of, but maybe take out the boring rewards
Looks likea broccoli

Thats a trash can not a wave so that’s gunk shot on arbok
I do routes. I like them!
Why is zygarde so small
I don't know. Even the 100% form looks tiny
I just wanted to tell everybody, I have 25 cells and im not un a hurry to get more😅 screw zygarde max, it’s like running azu in the early days of pvp. Such an irritatingly op tank bully dragon btch😂 this is absolutely not directed at you callum, you’re the spice lord! You can use whatever you want at times!!!
Gunkshot
My bad 😅
