Yesterday’s most recent Pokémon GO Community Day was another hit, at least in my area. There were hundreds of people that turned out downtown to try to find shiny Bulbasaur. I will admit that I didn’t hunt the entire time as I got a good number of shinies fairly quickly and the cold temperatures were taking a toll on my fingers.
Community Day has been pretty fun now that we are getting ample warning about when they will occur. I must admit that I’m looking forward to April’s Community Day as the chances of weather being more favorable in my part of the world is much higher.
Bulbasaur wasn’t quite as exciting as Dratini as it’s not as relevant or rare a Pokémon but it was still a lot of fun.
The main issue was that in the bright sunlight I caught multiple shiny Bulbasaur without even being aware they were shiny. In the light I couldn’t see the sparkles and the difference between shiny and normal Bulbasaur is almost imperceptible without a frame of reference (the shiny one is on the right).
I had intended to write a simple recap of Community Day before the biggest news in a long time dropped this morning. Quests are coming to Pokémon GO! This is something I’ve been wanting for a long, long time and it looks like in a week’s time they will finally be here. Better yet, this first quest (or research) looks like it will be revealing one of the few holes in my Gen 1 Pokédex, Mew.
After not having seen Professor Oak since the first day I played the game he will apparently be making a return to tell us what we need to do to help him in his research. It will be nice to see him again rather than repeatedly transferring Venonats to him.
It’s a little unclear exactly how they’ll work but the full details are available here on the official Pokémon GO website.
In a quest described as “A Mythical Discovery” they list 3 quest items:
1.) Spin 5 Pokéstops.
2.) Catch 10 Pokémon.
3.) Transfer 5 Pokémon.
I sincerely hope the quest items to unlock Mew are a bit more challenging than that. I’m sure this is just an example or as indicated in the pic above perhaps the first level (of eight) that you need to do to get Mew.
There is also another screen showed which displays rewards for doing the specific items listed.
There appears to be some sort of stamp reward but it’s still unclear how this works or how you get them.
This screenshot shows a potential update to the game with the research icon replacing weather which has been moved to the top right corner of the screen.
To me this is the most exciting update to the game since the Buddy System was released, even though that system doesn’t have nearly the impact now that it did upon release.
To me, this is how Mewtwo should have been done. I don’t care how hard the quest is or how long it takes, I’m so much more excited to play the game working toward a stretch goal than I am doing random raids hoping to win the EX Raid Pass lottery. Even eventually getting the pass doesn’t mean I’d even be able to attend the raid if I happen to have an obligation that day.
I’m very much looking forward to March 30th to get my first glimpse of what this update looks like and have a new reason to play the game.
The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I do know it was my choice to read, however I really thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you can fix when you werent too busy looking for attention.
