Since its release last year, Niantic’s AR-based hit Pokemon Go has become one of the most active and successful mobile titles in history, garnering more than 750 million downloads and seeing upward of 5 million active users per day. The title’s appeal draws not only from the game’s rich Pokemon-based heritage, but also the social nature of its gameplay, encouraging players to leave their homes and join up with other players in order to find, collect, and even defeat powerful creatures.
Being such a big game, experienced players and newcomers alike often have questions regarding mechanics, items, or even even current events. Luckily for them, Modojo has answers to all of the top Pokemon Go questions. Read on to discover all of our best Pokemon Go guides, covering everything from how to hunt down specific creatures to the best time to participate in Raid Battles and more.
Pokemon Go – General Tips And Hints
• Pokemon spawn based on a number of factors, including nearby bodies of water, local geographical features, the weather, or even time of day, as some Pokemon spawn more frequently at night.
• Has Pokemon Go been draining your phone’s battery? Try turning off augmented reality (AR) options from the in-game menu. Turning down the phone’s brightness may also help, though it will decrease daylight visibility.
• Eggs cannot be hatched by riding around in a motor vehicle — there’s a 12 mile-per-hour limit for hatching eggs, and any movement faster than this speed will block eggs from hatching.
• Keep a close eye on items — Lucky Eggs can be used to double a player’s experience for half an hour, and items like Golden Razz Berries have become invaluable for capturing powerful Pokemon.
