If I can play on my iPhone 4S, even as they say it won't work, I am sure your phone is fine, Siipu. :) It only crashes when the peeps got off work for me as well. xD
A tip is to get a power bank, and keep it with you while out, incase you need to charge. Also, don't leave without fully charge your device from home. xD The 3G net and the app itself eats battery like cake, and then it might be a time when the sun is shining, and yo need to increase the brightness of your screen, which also drains battery.
I was wondering if you could use the game in Low Power Mode, without the screen locking?

Siipu 07-13-2016 04:34 PM



Well, I'm going to upgrade my phone soon anyway.

I think I have a power bank somewhere. Not quite sure where it is tho.
Might need to buy a new one.
We'll see how much crashing happens here when it's finally released.

Not sure.
But there were tips on how to download the map so you can use it in
offline mode to save battery. [yes]

Well its been improving. But I still lack my entire dream team. I do a team of horsea, cubone, dratini, ponyta, and eevee. I almost caught an eevee, but my phone locked up right before it caught.

(Yes I know my dream team is just cute Pokémon)

Also I now have 144 poke balls and 8 eggs. Halp.

Siipu 07-14-2016 03:17 AM



Yeah, I've been reading the news and updates about it quite
regularly. *nods*

I'm usually like that too. Catching only cute pokemon. But at least there's
challenge. You need to work harder to get the pokemons you really
wan't instead of them being handed to you. c:

Have you hatched an egg before?
If so, got anything good from it?




The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 03:22 AM

True, but with the lack of a trading or friend system you can't get things that don't spawn in your area without physically flying to another state/country.

1.2/2 on my first egg... [lol] and up to 9 eggs and 161 pokeballs.

On another note, I caught my eevee ^^ it's so cute.

Siipu 07-14-2016 03:24 AM




Oh yes. But in my opinion that makes it even more fun.
I seriously can't wait to see what pokemons are
around me.
RELEASE IT ALREADY. [illgetu]

Oooh, exciting.
Let me know what you get from it. c:

Oh congrats!

The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 04:13 AM

Why? You can't trade pokemon with your menewshan friends or anything. That would be really cool.

It'll probably hatch in a week or two... [lol]

Siipu 07-14-2016 05:52 AM



Well, I'm not really familiar with the Trading system
on previous games, because I never used them.

No, hatch it now!
Walk Poet, walk! [lol]

Citrus Hammer 07-14-2016 07:04 AM

On the trading subject: They plan to add it eventually :3

I think the screen locking thing with Battery Saver or your screen shutting off was fixed with the update. I was having all kinds of issues with it before then.

TEAM INSTINCT RULES \o/

Siipu 07-14-2016 07:22 AM



Oh, well. We'll see how it goes then.

Yeah, I was actually looking tips and tricks videos
and they used battery saving mode, without it locking the screen.
Good that it has the option for that to save
battery life.

RinLin 07-14-2016 11:39 AM

I also looked it up, and it should work without locking the screen.
Also; EEVEE! I need one! Gonna make it a Vaporeon, my fave <3 And I will probably also just have a cutesy team of Pokémon! Like, Eevee (Vaporeon), Chansey, Growlithe... Will see what else, I like to have different types to vary in battle with. :)

Siipu 07-14-2016 01:57 PM



I haven't really given it a thought about what pokemons
I would want to have. Except for cute ones. [lol]

So today it was released in UK. I was hoping it would be
released later today in other parts of Europe, but I guess
that's not going to happen.
There's hoping it will be released tomorrow. [heart]

The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 02:26 PM

What does battery save do? It seemed like it still left the screen on, which is the main source of battery draining.

Siipu 07-14-2016 02:33 PM



In the video it seemed that the power save mode
makes it look like the screen is locked, like it'
shuts the lights down, but the screen still isn't locked.
I suck at explaining.

Lemme see if i can find the video.
Here's the video

The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 02:46 PM

I see... from that I figured it out but this solves nothing really. It still has your screen on constantly, and it only seems to activate some of the time.

Siipu 07-14-2016 02:56 PM




Well, i can't really help you in other ways,
until i get to actually play it and test it myself. [yes]

The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 03:01 PM

Okay so I figured it out... it requires you to..... put your phone in your pocket upside down?

Siipu 07-14-2016 03:17 PM




Yeah, or in the table.
Don't know why, but that's what he did in the video. [lol]

RinLin 07-14-2016 03:23 PM

IT WAS RELEASED IN THE UK TODAY?! Omg, Sweden is so clooosee... -reaches out hands for Pokémon-

Siipu 07-14-2016 03:33 PM




Yeah, it was around noon.
11 am your time. *nods*

Shadowfflur 07-14-2016 04:34 PM

Well with the amount of crazy money they are raking in I'm sure Niantic/Nintendo will be able to purchase plenty of servers and staff to keep up with demand.

Ooh, I haven't found a Ponyta yet, but I really want one <3 I caught my first Pinsir yesterday. Not cute or pretty, but a nice strong one for battles.

Siipu 07-14-2016 05:09 PM



Yeah, I believe so too.

Oooh, ponyta would be awesome.
Geez, i really can't wait. D:

RinLin 07-14-2016 05:34 PM

I heard it will be released in Sweden tomorrow, I hope it's true! :D

Siipu 07-14-2016 05:40 PM



It better be released in here then too!
We're sooo close, it should be ridiculous for you to
get it and I would have to wait. [lol]

The Wandering Poet 07-14-2016 07:58 PM

I'm trying that whole "flip it over and wait" technique but really, nothing has been near my house since the first starter.
Everything I catch is near work.
