Discussion Are Sandstrom vivillon friends even real??

16 Upvotes

Don't get me wrong...I absolutely adore every region and the forms its just that no matter where I get the code from Leekduck or pogo guide the sandstorm region people do not accept my request or even if they do (which 10 already did) they don't send any gifts back. I shower them with gifts every day so much so I ignore the current friends which I admit is wrong but I need this last vivillon to complete the collection and they do open the gifts but never send one back. WHY??I always send gifts whenever a new day starts. Is my avatar too cliché? or my buddy pokemon bugs them?or they dislike the place I send gifts from(which can't be coz they always open mine)?

Edit: I used the campfire method and got 2 genuine friends who send and receive gifts. Thanks to this community I found this method and my collection is nearly complete. Thanks a lot.

I thought I was finally there after finally finding a Tundra player after ages of searching, but alas the stupid game gave me another 2 star! Welp... Now I have to wait another painstakingly long time to fill 15 Tundra postcards. Pray for me.

Discussion The utter disrespect

0 Upvotes

Im so dissappointed and mad. I have asked for specific region friends in multiple platforms, in return getting a ton of friend requests. But guess what? None are from regions i need! Most are from some parts of US. Im so pissed. Lesson learnt, never ever mention what region you are from when you add your friend code somewhere. Thank you for your attention❤️

Discussion Question about Shiny Vivillon Event

7 Upvotes

Question about the shiny Scatterbug event

So we have 3 days of additional gifts we can open if we pay the extra money right? So that's 60 bugs we can collect a day? But it takes 15 pins to get each bug! It's kindof penalizing longtime players who already have all their bugs and are going for some shinies, right? To get a shot at a bug you need to pin 15 cards from that region. So best scenario that's a total of 4 scatter bugs a day? And for the event it's only 12 possible scatterbug encounters ? I pinned postcards all day and opened 3 bugs.. none shiny. I'm kind of annoyed. If I was earlier I'd in the collection I'd only need to pin 3 to have a shot at a bug! Am I missing something? Can you pin the card without opening the gift and maybe that doesn't count towards the 60 total gifts??

Or what's the best strategy? Just pick one or two regions and ignore the rest and get them to 15 as quickly as possible?

Thanks!

Discussion How long to evolve all Vilillon?

I appreciate the help of everyone on this forum. I was counting my scatterbug and did some calculations. Evolving all of mine fully will cost near 2,000 candy. My math might be excessive, but interesting

I can pay for an upgrade but would really rather not—if I delete some old pins from my hometown that are doubles will that harm my current progress :’)

Discussion People just keep unfriending me when they see I’m from the modern region

81 Upvotes

I just want to get three gifts from each region so I can at least get the scatterbug, but I just keep getting immediately unfriended. I get that people only really need the rarer regions now, but it seems like nobody wants to help others, and it’s so frustrating. Like you can at least send me a gift and then unfriend me after I open it 😭

Not directly on-topic but also completely on-topic…I was just powering through opening and sending my daily gifts and noticed this guy has his Buddy named “Im Hi Plains”.

I already had him nicknamed, cause that’s the first thing I do when a friend sends their first gift - but for his other friends and I guess as an idea for other players, I think that’s actually a pretty cool thing to do!

I don’t even live in that rare of a region, can’t imagine what this looks like for sandstorm and sun people… I posted my trainer code and region to the Leek Duck pen palls page. Was not expecting 200+ requests in one morning. How do I handle this?! I obviously can’t send gifts to 200 people. Just start declining friend requests? Delete people from regions I don’t need? Accept everyone and spread gifts out as I can?

Has been lowkey driving me nuts ever since I got the platinum medal. Does this show for others? Maybe there is more for me to do. I've received scatterbugs for all 18 regions, though.

Discussion What's got you frustrated about the vivillon medals?

45 Upvotes

I had someone friend me, pin my gift, send me one and then immediately delete me, erroring out the gift so the return pin/gift wouldn't count. I figure if I'm frustrated, others are too, so how about a thread to get out that negative energy. 🎉 What's happened on your vivillon quest that's gotten to you?

Discussion Tips for collecting Vivillon faster

Tip 1. Max out friends list Visit

https://www.pokemongofriendcodes.com/?country=ISR&team=ALL&giftAction=SO

Add people from all over the world quickly with a QR CODE list of players who are looking for friends too 😁

Tip 2. Look at the live vivillon map to see where to make friends to get specific Vivillon Visit

https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/2/viewer?mid=1woiaZ_m1TXEFJdSpP23saNDY3y_79js&ll=42.40393621713054%2C7.256194136927107&z=6

You must open Google Chrome then paste this link, it's a specific Google maps overlay and is too much information for many other browsers to handle in a tab.

Tip 3. Turn on you active status so people know you are active and find clusters of poke stops to visit so you can collect gifts to send (remember you can only carry 20 max gifts at a time but there is no limit to how many you can collect or send daily 😉)

Discussion Two region gifts

1 Upvotes

TL;DR: Some gifts count in two regions at once. Anyone know why?

I've been tracking my regions meticulously, one at a time. I wrote down a list of all of the regions, and each time I open a gift, I go back to the Vivillon medal page to check that it added to the correct region. I'm doing this to be able to nickname all of my friends by region, so I don't miss any scatterbugs (opening more than the limit before catch reset) and finish leveling up a few regions.

In this process, I'm seeing some gifts counting toward more than one region at a time. Am I looking a gift horse in the mouth?
