    The MAX OUT Season has officially come to a close and should be remembered as one of the best Pokémon GO Seasons ever. The Max Battle System fundamentally changed the daily routines of countless Trainers, with deeper levels of engagement and strategy trickling their way into different mechanics like defending Gyms, trading, and walking Routes. Hats off to MAX OUT!

    Dual Destiny is our next Season and it is hitting the ground running in December with a packed slate of content. We revisit the conversation of how demanding this game has become on our calendars, with more and more destination in game events. Pair that with nearly all events having a ticketed component, FOMO is sure to make an appearance at some point this Season.

    December weekends are packed with small window events while over arching events span the weekdays. Trainers will have something to do every single weekend in December. Maintaining a game/life balance will be tested this month, and it will be a challenge for some to stave off the burnout. Is there ever a point where too much in game content is too much? We aren’t sure but if there is a month to help us find out it will be this December.

    Details on the Unova Tour have dropped which opens the door for a great conversation. We dig into how IRL Communities have more events than ever to build upon for their locals, and how even if a Community wants to host 3 events a YEAR, they have good reason to do so. We are confident that the Max Out Season was a catalyst for getting back to in-person play, and the future is bright for those Trainers that are willing to embrace it and get outside to play.

    329. Can I Get A Refund? Nov 22, 2024

    Lured Up Podcast 329

    Record Date - 11/20/24

    Publish Date - 11/22/24

    Wild Area Global is almost here and we have plenty to unpack and dig into. Hopefully everyone in your community has done plenty of Drilbur in preparation of GMAX Toxtricity, and is managing their Max Particles correctly to balance powering one or two of them up. We will get you prepped and ready to go for Wild Area Global, and will touch on some of the issues that Trainers are facing this week.

    Into the wild put Toxel behind 10km eggs but the Community seems pretty chill about it, knowing that Toxtricity is just on the horizon. An issue with the event’s Raid ticket however, has Trainers calling Niantic out for some misleading advertising. With a quiet update to the blog, Niantic has flipped on how bonus Raid passes were to be included with the ticket, causing some unrest in the Community. With their credibility being under a microscope, future events that include bonus Raid passes may require some additional explaining on what exactly is included.

    We had a few quality of life updates this week starting with increased Pokémon and item storage, which is always welcomed before a major event. Pair that with a Black Friday PokéCoin sale, and Trainers have some pretty good incentive to spend up before the weekend.The big news of the week however was the addition of Raid Attendance being visible from the Friends List, with the ability to jump directly into a Remote Raid without an invite. (NOTE - Since the time of this recording we have learned that this is a temporary test that is scheduled to end after the Wild Area Global event).

    WIth the Max Out Season coming to a close, it is fair to say that this has been one of the most action packed Seasons to date. With new visuals, mechanics, and ways to play the game, it has been moving at a fast pace since its first day. The Max Out finale will keep the pressure on, bringing new Pokémon, but also additional tickets to purchase, which also puts the pressure on Trainer’s wallets.

    328. Toxic Shock Nov 15, 2024

    We are only a few weeks away from the conclusion of the Max Out Season, and with a barrage of events behind us, there is still plenty to look forward to. We begin with a recap of the Harvest Festival, Mankey Community Day, and the amazing Food Drives that were part of the event. We also saw the first Community Ambassador Check-In Timed Research which further incentivizes Trainers to visit or create their own Ambassador led events.

    Simply Groundbreaking is up next and Dynamax Drilbur is coming along with it. Even as a One-Star Max Battle, this Pokémon will have a profound impact on the PvE meta as Dynamax Excadrill is the lead counter against the Wild Area’s premier boss, Toxtricity! It should be a priority for all Trainers to play during next week’s Max Monday, to stock up on Drilbur and Candy XL. You will want to go into the Wild Area prepped and ready to go!

    The Into the Wild event will be our last before the Wild Area, and will keep us very busy as we await the global event. Meetups have been popping up everywhere, including in Rochester, New Hampshire. Anyone in that area is urged to come out to meet Adam and the Tri-City Pokémon Campfire Group for a day of grinding and even a giveaway for a GO Plus+!

    The most interesting news of the week comes from just outside of Albany, NY, where local officials are looking to put an end to organized Pokémon GO events in a public park. Even local news stations have picked up the story, and it could have a profound impact on the local Pokémon GO Community. After receiving so many messages about it, I was able to connect with Spencer, the Community lead and creator of a petition to keep Pokémon GO in Crossings Park. We urge EVERYONE to read up on the story and get involved. Let’s support our fellow Trainers!

    The second half of the Halloween Event is behind us and it closed out strong with GMAX Gengar. We discuss how the nerfs impacted the community, and whether or not we think they should stick around. Our experiences with Gengar were expectedly different, however Adam shares some glimmers of hope that he has stumbled on in his area.

    Next Season’s Save the Date is here and is packed with events, including our two-day Community Day yearly wrap up. We should all feel confident that additional events are still to be announced, but we would be remiss if we didn’t discuss just how full the calendar has become. It isn’t just events, but limited timed events like Spotlight Hours and Raid Days. The calendar is packed with them, creating a very destination event style gameplay loop.

    We dig in to what the packed calendar means for casuals and core Trainers, and how FOMO is bound to make a strong return next Season. We are eager to hear your feedback on how you feel having events happening every weekend, 3 times during the week, and overarching throughout the month. One thing is for certain, there is no shortage of gameplay to experience.

    As we prepare for the Wild Area in a few weeks, we still need to get through Mankey Community Day, which will also be doubling as a holiday food drive. The Simply Groundbreaking event introduces DMAX Drilbur, which will be your best counter for Toxtricity. Is the Community ready to go back to focusing on One Star Max Battles? We shall see!

    It’s been a big week in Pokémon GO with the release of Gigantamax Pokémon causing quite the stir. The Community sentiment over the mechanic is split, and it seems like community size plays a very important role. We start with a recap and work our way through the news, but the looming GMAX conversation is heard throughout the episode.

    November is already here and we have our final month of Max Out in front of us. We will be having a very Raid heavy November as we work towards the Wild Area. With the return of many familiar Legendaries and a packed Raid Hour lineup, we will be very busy. The start of the month brings us GO Battle Weekend into the Harvest Festival. Could this be the calm before the storm?

    The big news is the community sentiment over the release of GMAX> With large communities of 30+ having amazing activations, while others, are so down on the mechanic that they don’t even try. We have plenty to say on the topic, including an interesting take from Adam.

    We also announce our social experiment, the New Hampshire Rural Community Project. This 6 month initiative is designed to build an organized community of Trainers in rural Rochester, New Hampshire. Stay tuned for details and progress over the next few months!

    The Gigantamax Hype Train is arriving at the station and Trainers are ready to get on board. GMAX Raids have simultaneously renewed the spirits of many IRL communities while also drawing the ire of some Trainers online. The game has changed, the map has changed, and the way we interact with other Trainers around us has changed. GMAX is here and we are all for it.

    We start with a recap of last week’s gameplay including Magnetic Study, Yamask Research Day, and the kickoff of the Halloween Event. Niantic has been keeping their foot on the throttle all Season and it doesn’t appear it will let up anytime soon. You can even find more to do at Walmarts this week as they are Niantic’s newest sponsor. Gram some PGO exclusive gift cards while you’re there, just in time for the holidays.

    The Halloween festivities continue next week with Part 2 of the event landing. Gigantamax Gengar is leading the charge of Pokémon decked out in costumes. We have 2 new costumes this event, and a bunch of past costumes coming back as well. The shiny chase will be pretty strong throughout the event.

    Max Mondays will be a new weekly staple event bringing a single Dynamax Pokémon to all Power Spots for an hour. We discuss how being a core PGO Trainer takes significant commitment, with the game asking for more and more of our time.

    Ken will be all over NJ battling GMAX Pokémon this weekend in Red Bank on Saturday, and Nutley on Sunday. Check out our Twitter for Campfire links to each of those Ambassador Events!

    Niantic is making it harder and harder to talk about topics other than the news! October has been a non-stop barrage of events, updates, and content from Niantic, with Trainers barely having a moment to catch their breath. We run through our gameplay from the last week including GIovanni, Mega Mawile, and the current Magnetic Study. It has been a busy week to say the least.

    Yamask Research Day is this weekend and only adds to the back to back nature of events this month. It makes for the perfect primer for Part 1 of the Halloween Event which lands next week. Morepeko is absolutely making things interesting as is the event and its multiple ways to engage with it. Those chasing Morpeko will need to grind some GBL while those not looking to dig in too deep will stick to the Timed Research. We also can’t forget about Spiritomb, who will be in Field Research making for a fun grind.

    The big news of the week was the announcement of Gigantamax, and the upcoming events to support it. It looks like we will be seeing the Kanto Starters Gigantamax Forms in November, with a very interesting new way to lobby up. With up to 40 Trainers taking on a Gigantamax Pokémon at the same time, it will be interesting to see how many Communities can fill a lobby and get through the coordination needed to plan a large scale Gigantamax Battle. Let’s also not forget that we are still seeing plenty of Power Spots at home based businesses, which makes you wonder if Gigantamax locations will be curated or random.

    An unexpected update hit the news feed of Trainers in the Seattle and Bellevue Washington area, notifying them that the Pokémon Playgrounds AR Experience was available to them at select Gyms and Stops. We look back to 2017 when Niantic first mentioned Playground, which makes it running live in 2024 even more awesome. We dig in to how the Lightship VPS may play an intrical role in Playground, and how it could shape the way we interact with the game at IRL events.

    323. This Explains A Lot Oct 11, 2024

    Lured Up Podcast 323

    Record Date - 10/9/2024

    Welcome to another fun loving and good for you episode of the Lured Up Podcast! October has been a workout for sure as Trainers are navigating a sea of events, new mechanics, and social awkwardness! We start things off with a recap of the Galarian Expedition event and prep to take down Giovanni this week. With the Taken Over portion of the event spicing things up on the Rocket department, this week brings unique grinding opportunities as well as support for Pve and PvP though the Pokémon that are available.

    Mega Mawile Raid Day is this weekend and we put together a little Raid Guide and Battle Party thanks to help from Pokémon GO Hub and Pokebattler. With Mega Mawile being fairly easy to defeat, it presents the chance to use some fun and unique Pokémon, as we see in each of our Battle Parties. Whether you are free to play or a paid player, Raid Day always delivers a ton of great gameplay and in person fun for Communities.

    We will see a few days of vanilla spawns before the Magnetic Study Event goes live. THis event has rotating bonuses and TImed Research, allowing for Trainers to find a time to play that works best for their style and needs. Or, if you are like us, a nice varied gameplay experience that can be enjoyed over the entire arc of the short event. Make sure to earn some Magnetic Lures from Showcases to help out your Community!

    Details for Part 1 of the Halloween Event have been detailed and it looks like a banger! With a little bit of everything, we will see new Pokémon, new PvP mechanics, and a new Dynamax Boss all in the same week. We still have some time before the event goes live, so we will revisit it in more detail next week!

    FInally we wrap up with a conversation driven by a JRESeawolf Tweet that highlights the tendency for some Battlers online to take an ill-informed stance about Niantic as a developer and how that impacts different systems of the game. While we have fun and make some gross generalizations, it doesn’t take much time on Twitter to realize that it can sometimes feel like Battlers vs the world. Check out our thoughts and share your own to keep the conversation going!

    322. Wild And Crazy Guys Oct 07, 2024

    While we are used to Niantic’s insane event pacing, it is always a good thing when there is excitement from week to week. The events lately have been bringing a lot of value to Trainers by offering a variety of things to do. Raid hours have been drawing good crowds for weeks and the events have been motivating people to get outside.

    The Wild Area has been detailed and this looks to be a new staple ingredient in Niantic’s IRL event roster. With the theme of focusing on specific Pokémon types, if opens the door for recurring events with rotating types. A two day global event also makes this exciting for Trainers that don’t plan on attending the in person event. Plenty to do, new Pokémon, new Shinies, new excitement.

    Zamazenta is replacing its partner Zacian in 5 Star Raids this week. Paired with Falinks Max Battles, there are plenty of reasons to get outside with a group to play. With the difficulty that Falinks is bringing, some Trainers are surprised and turned off. It opens up a discussion of how this game calls for in person group play as an integral part of a successful experience.

    Giovanni is also heading back, this time with Shadow Heatran. The ability to TM away Frustration comes at a good time as things are still being shaken out from the PvE updates. Paired with the next PokéCoin Bounty and Mega Mawile Raid Day, this October is shaping up to be packed, and we don’t even know what the Halloween Event will bring us!

    321. Max Battles Are Fun Sep 27, 2024

    Lured Up Podcast 321

    Record Date - 9/24/24

    We have plenty to discuss this week as the hits just keep on coming. Niantic is keeping their foot on the gas pedal with Max Out, as new events, Pokémon and Shinies are inbound to the game this month.

    We begin with a recap of our last week of gameplay including the Psychic Spectacular and Dynamax Beldum Raids. We loved seeing a fleshed out and diverse event that provides a bit of gameplay for many different disciplines of Trainers. The focus this week however is on DMax Beldum, which while not too tough a boss in the end, definitely took a lot of Trainers by surprise in their first few battles. This makes DMax even more promising as a vessel to release new and exciting content to the game.

    Oranguru and Passimian Research Day delivered as expected with simple tasks and plenty of Shinies. Having events like this that support free to play players and the most hardcore at the same time is no simple feat. In the end, these types of events just work out well for everyone that plays them. We also have news of the Galar Starters coming as Max Battles along with Falinx, which will keep that DMax Train chugging along.

    Plenty of miscellaneous news this week including Sewaddle Community Day, new TCG inspired Stickers, Campfire on browser, and sharing items in Party Play. This season is absolutely jammed with content and October looks to keep it going.

    Baltimore Regionals were this last weekend and many notable Battlers have spoken up about the state of PvP negatively impacting the event. When Niantic makes a known issue as resolved, yet it rears its head on the world stage, it is never a good look. We hope that in the end all of the battles played were decided fairly.

    Between Legendary Heroes and Galarian Expedition, we have Zacian and Zamazenta returning, but this time with their Shiny forms. We have a strong feeling that Raids will be popping off for the next two weeks. Get at it, Trainers!
