If you are a player of Pokémon GO then you may want to know you can use your sleep to play Pokémon GO as well!

Remember PokémonGo plus? In time to come there will be a Pokémon GO Plus + which is a device just like Pokémon GO Plus but more function as it is flat and it will track your sleep pattern with the Pokémon Sleep App.


Yes you will be rewarded for your sleep when you are using the Pokémon Sleep app and I guess it will link to your Pokémon GO account maybe like hatching egg?


If you are into sleeping App, then this could be a PLUS to you.

PokemonGo PVP is Out!

Here is our first hand experience of PVP on PokemonGo!


Now you can have option to Train with the Trainer to get a feel how PVP works. Doing so will earn you the long lost badges of ACE trainer. Do note each training will only gain you 1 point but the good news is that your Pokemon wont need any item to heal them.


If you are challenging a real player you have 2 choices.

1. Scan QR code for those with you personally. The QR code will expire after a period of time.
2. Go to your friend list and if they are online (only for Ultra and Best Friends status), you can invite them for battle. It is entirely up to them to accept or not.


Then you are given 3 league to fight. Do note the limit is CP. So if there are Legendary Pokemon with low CP, you may see them in those battle.

So if you want to major in the lowest CP league then make sure you keep your useful Pokemon on those CP level and not evolve or power them up.

You are given some time then to choose 3 Pokemon. My advise is always think about what your opponent maybe using and choose those that counter their Pokemon.

The battle system is very straight forward. You choose 3 of your Pokemon and fight. Unlike Raid or battle in Gym, you cannot "avoid" attack by swiping left or right. So you can forget about dancing.


What count is you have to see what Pokemon is against you and is his attack is effective against you or is your attack effective against him.

When you are using your charging attack, you are given time to charge by pressing real fast to double your attack damage. If the opponent used the Shield, it basically nullify your attack. So plan your attack wisely.

If the attacker move is effective against you, you are given only 2 shield to block that attack. So use wisely especially you know their attack against you are effective.
 

If you win, you will get plus 1 point of the League badges depending which league you were playing along with some stardust.

This really is fun as now you can battle your friends in real time. However this also would distract you from Raid, battle in Gym or capturing Pokemon. So look out for those invitation as if you are online, your friends would know by seeing the ability to send invite to you to battle.

I would share more if I discover more over the days!

What you need to know about Pokémon Poké Ball Plus?

The news of Nintendo Switch new Pokémon game of Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! and one of the interesting news is about the new accessory that is call Poké Ball Plus. So what is it and what it can and cannot do? Let's find out more on this official product from Nintendo.


How do Poké Ball™ Plus work with Nintendo Switch?
Poké Ball Plus actually have a control stick (the button in the center) and a top button (Red top part of the Pokéball ball). It also have motion control capability to capture the throwing of Pokéball like the joy-con. In short, it is like a joy-con but minus off some buttons.


The Pokéball Plus have LED light (Around the center control circle) and also speaker to play sound of the Pokémon.

It also will vibrate like a Joy-con. It can simulate that a Pokémon is inside the Pokéball Plus.

It offer a function to load a Pokémon inside and you can bring it with you (not too sure if you need the Nintendo Switch with you also for it to work but likely).

How Pokéball Plus work with Pokémon™ GO?
Pokéball Plus has the exact function of the Pokémon Go plus when you connect it on your smart phone with Pokémon™ GO app.

Like Pokémon Go plus, it offer the screen-free function which you can catch Pokémon without looking at your smartphone. When a Pokémon appears nearby, Poké Ball Plus will light up and vibrate. To catch press the button and it will auto catch the Pokémon (Not 100% catch tho).

The color of the LED light will indicate if you succeeded or failed in your catch.

The Poké Ball Plus connected to your smartphone Pokémon GO app, it will hatch Eggs and get Candy of your Buddy Pokémon.

In short, if you get this, this will replace your current Pokémon Go plus.

Specs 
The Pokéball Plus has the 48mm diameter and weight about 65 grams.

The battery of this Pokéball Plus has a inbuilt re-chargable battery of 220mAh (about 3 hours of playing) which is rechargeable by USB type-C cable. The battery is lower than a normal Joy-Con which has battery capacity of 525 mAh.

The price of this Pokéball Plus would be around USD$50.00 and releasing in 16th November 2018. As this is accessories, you can buy it separately.

Smart way to get the money from  Pokémon Go players I must say.

Tips for Pokémon Go Research to catch Mew

Pokémon Go had a new update and it give more meaning for the game play and it is called Research.


Research is divided to 2 parts. Field and Special.

Field Research
You have 3 slots for field research that gave you individual reward upon complete of the task. You begin by spinning a Pokéstop.

Do note that the same Pokéstop at a given time would give you the same task. Some of this task are reasonable easy and the reward would be according to the afford.


Some reward are by items and some a chance to catch some rare Pokémon. We discover that the Pokémon caught in the reward are more higher stats than egg hatching ones.

If you deem the task is too hard or the reward is not really what you need, you can delete that task anytime by clicking the "Bin" icon on the right. That give player a choice to see if they have time for that.

There is no time limit to the task. Just make sure you claim your reward and clear the slot for new task.

By the number of field research you do, you will get medal for that.



Special Research
This is a research to catch Mew which is 100% catch. However the requirement would not be easy.

There are total 8 tier (actually 7 as Mew catching is a reward) and it has no time limit.

Make sure you claim your reward so it can go to next tier. Even your bag are full, you can still claim the reward.

Tier 1: Spin 5 Pokéstops, Catch 10 Pokémon, Transfer 5 Pokémon
This is simple as most player do everyday


Tier 2: Farm 2 candies walking with your Buddy, Make 10 great throws, Hatch 3 Eggs
Just make sure you choose Pokémon that generate candy for 1KM and that would be easy. Hatching egg would be faster if you choose more egg hatcher and 2KM eggs.

Tier 3: Reach Level 15, Battle in a Gym 2 times, Battle in 2 Raids
If you are above level 15 it is a given straight to you. For Gym battle just go fight 2 pokemon in gym will do. For the raid use your yesterday and today raid pass will do.

Tier 4: Earn a Silver Kanto Medal, Evolve 20 Pokémon, Earn 5 Candies walking with your Buddy
If you are season player, Kanto medal should be no issue. Just make sure you have enough candies to evolve pokemon that is common and use less candies requirement.

Tier 5: Catch Ditto, Make 20 Great throws, Catch 10 Ghost Pokémon
This could be the most difficult tier among the rest as Ditto and Ghost Pokemon are really by luck encounter unless you know the NEST. So this may take sometime. Great throw defer from people who know how and those who try using luck.

Tier 6: Reach Level 25, Battle in 10 Raids, Evolve a Magikarp
Reaching level 25 is not difficult the only issue would be having 400 candies for evolving Magikarp. Raid battle would take less than 10 days.

Tier 7: Catch 50 Pokémon using a Berry, Make one excellent curve throw, Earn a Gold Kanto Medal
Make sure you have 50 berries of any kind will do as that is easy among the 3. Having Kanto medal would be rather easy but the most challenging is getting excellent curve throw. Pray and practice you may get one.

Tier 8: Catch Mew
100% catch rate so it is reward for you :)

So that's all for now. More tips later.

Now go and catch some Pokémon

9 Facts on Feeding Berries in Pokémon GO Gym

In the recent update, beside fighting Gym, you get a chance to feed berries to your Team Pokemon.
Here are some facts you may want to know about feeding Gym Pokemon.


1. You can only feed Pokemon of your same team in Gym.

2. Feeding Pokemon will restore CP (heart meter) of the Pokemon to make it last longer if there are being attack.

3. When you feed a Pokemon, you will get Stardust and sometime Candies of that Pokemon you feed. So if you need more Dragonite's candy, start feeding Dragonite of your same team in Gym.

4. When Pokemon heart is meter is full, you still can feed it. Normally 10 times but not more.

5. If you repeat feeding the same Pokemon, the rate of restoration will be lower each time.

6. Gold berries are the wonder berries which most of the time totally restore the heart meter of the Pokemon.

7. The newly added remote feeding. As this remote feeding will always be lesser effect of the berries compare to being there to feed it. Nonetheless this could still help you to stay in the gym for sometime for some players.

8. Remote feeding are always lower restoration than feeding there yourself

9. If you are doing remote feeding, keep an eye on the status of your Pokemon as there are rarely notification to alert you.



With this configuration, does that mean I can feed 1 berry to all? LOL *Joking



If you have more facts that you discover, share it in our comments!
