After 83 Days of Routes...

[@voidastralbirth]

After all this time, I only have 9 cells to my Zygarde’s name. Congrats on finally getting Perfect Cell- I mean, Zygarde!

[@ratsmacker0469]

Nice job nimrod

[@tealelston]

I was trying this just by walking for a few months and I got really discouraged, but I found some routes I could drive about a month ago, man that was life changing. I also got to the level that I could create routes and that was a big help! I did find that longer routes tend to give cells at a higher rate, especially the multi cells appearing. I think it would be cool if the shiny rate was slightly higher on routes, I feel like that would encourage routes a lot more.

Thats a cool idea about the shiny rate! Would be fun!

Great job mate

[@Houndlock643]

I’ve noticed that during my experiences with routes, that you sometimes have a greater chance finding more cells at the end of longer routes (~1.6 -2.4 km compared to the shortest 0.5 or so.)

Could be true - but might still be more efficient to do more short routes

[@Nieznany_turio]

I agree about planning routes so that one starts as close to the other as possible. That's why I try to create paths in my town in this way, and also in places where people most often walk or ride bikes. Another advantage is that at the moment I am the only one creating paths, so if I make it ahead of others, it won't turn into a "chotic garbage" like it often does in cities.

[@CurL488]

Driving the routes was the key to getting mine as well. I was doing them after 10pm when no one was on the roads. Also, I didn’t know the actual number, but under 6.5mph going in to the last 100m is essential. Great stuff as always bro, appreciate you 👊🏼

[@Tikoyyyy]

Yup as soon i got to level 40 i made my own loop from my work to my house so far it works! Thanks to that x4 exp event i got to level 40 fairly quickly from level 33

[@Cyko..]

What happens if you get fired? You would look like a disgruntled worker plotting something if you kept driving past your work every day...

[@benlogna]

I work full time, but even still, there are like 10 routes on my bus line. If you take the bus, you can set up routes between stops easily- sometimes they are published immediately. And since the bus is always stopping and starting, there's a good potential for cell spawns. Also, a lot of the time if they don't spawn immediately, you can click the end stop, or the route menu, and it ends up spawning after all.

[@brandonaston301]

Whats a bus system?

[@kiaamkearse3543]

You can do the same route to get cells ?

not on the same day, but yeh you can do the same routes every day.@@kiaamkearse3543

[@ShawnyPlays]

Dax you pretty much highlighted my exact route loop with your triangulation. Gettin' poke doxxed😂

[@trainerskulb00d]

You nominate your routes completely and accurately....they'll get approved instantly, I don't wait for mine to be approved by anyone. I've made parking lot routes, they just need to be 600 meters long, and they're awesome if you don't want to get out of your car. I also would suggest you keep your daily streak on routes also, the 7 day reward is pretty nice. I've gotten a few rare XL's as rewards, stick with it and have fun.

Ya the route application is pretty good

[@andrewdivino08]

I won’t be changing my Zygarde’s form anytime soon, I’m waiting for the Kalos tour to hopefully get a better one (or more)

[@danieliusblackius1130]

I did the complete form on mine and have been slow-playing doing routes since. You still get stardust (and other, cheapy rewards) and if I do end up getting another Zygarde, I will be ready with quite a few cells toward the complete form yet again. So while you will be stuck with 1... in the same amount of time I might have 2.

[@andrewdivino08]

@@danieliusblackius1130 doesn’t it take away your Zygarde cube when you change to the complete form? How do you collect cells without the cube?

[@edmondYJ]

Doing routes for 2-3 hrs and not getting GUARANTEED z-cells and only 3max per day is insane.

[@danieliusblackius1130]

Good tips. I ended up identifying with all of them. I definitely took advantage of speed (car or bike) when possible, and was consistently planning out the closest I could some to back-to-back routes as new ones came out around me and I found some nice loops I could do to get 3 routes completed quickly, with contingencies for when I might not get a cell on one or more of those. i got my complete form on January 1! One thing I did not do was quit out of routes for speed - I always wanted that 1,000 stardust. Doing 250 routes (minimum!) that is 250,000 stardust... which is no joke.

[@skaareen]

250k stardust for 83 days is not worth the extra time for me. You can pretty easily get 130-150k stardust a week if you remember to do your go battle league sets meaning you get about 1.6 million in the same time period

[@danieliusblackius1130]

@@skaareen Yeah, and I would be getting the 130-150K per week plus another 15-20K more for doing routes while I am out hunting. Because that's the thing, the routes I use are basically along the routes I would Poke-hunt anyway. There is literally no reason not to do them and get even just the extra 1,000 dust.

[@TheDeaditeSlayer]

We do need to recognize that not everyone has the same flexibility or privilege to live in a town with accessible routes. I live in a suburb of Montreal and I only take public transportation. I don’t have a bike but the reason why is a bit of a long story. The problem for me was routes were very far from home at the beginning so it took a lot of time to go out and do them. It took MONTHS to get any approved by home and by the time it finally happened it was below 0 outside. Once the weather is better getting the remaining 150 will be so much easier but it sucks I had to wait so long just to get any within a short walk from home.

[@graham999]

I am a father of 3 and work i live in a very remote area so only have 2 cells i just dont even bother with it

For me I complete every route, (whether there’s a cell there or not) because you have a chance of rare xl candy as well as other helpful rewards

[@PixelatedWarz]

Hey dude I have a super cool idea for you. It would cost a quite a bit of money depending on where you're from, but you should DEFINITELY play Pokemon Go in a hot air balloon with a Giant R on it. No one has ever done this, and Team Rocket in real life would be crazy 🤣

[@angelaa1611]

I somehow missed this video! But I did the exact thing you described in this video. Created my own routes, set in a loop. And because i walk a lot anyway, i made the routes on the way I normally walk. I kinda fell off recently so, I need to get back to grinding routes. But Im about halfway to my goal. My Zygarde is 14-13-15.

I assumed you meant while staying under the speed limit but still sounded really funny when you said, “I’m just gonna drive as fast as I can.” Easy Speed Racer! 😂😂 congrats on the Zygarde as well.

[@cvaidya40]

Try to 'complete' the routes and not quit them. You end up getting fast TMs

[@steamboat97]

My Zygarde is only a 2 star so I have no motivation at all to get cells

[@Your_Local_Engineer]

I really hope they release Zygarde into raids someday (mostly to get its shiny) I think it could work like mega Pokemon, where you get energy to mega evolve them. The way i'm thinking is you get around 5-30 cells per raid depending on how fast you were, like megas. This would make routes useless so he should be an elite raid boss becuase of that.

[@morrt8579]

Have they ever released one of the research pokemon into raids? Id imagine they will just make another masterwork research for the shiny.

[@Your_Local_Engineer]

@@morrt8579 That is very true, but i just want an easy way to get cells since i don't have any routes nearby.

[@Animeman1993]

As someone who only does routes casually at maybe 1 per day im not bothering evolving mine until they put them in elite raids or something in the future. So not worth evolving the only one right away unless you got a really good one.

[@minami9710]

I live in place where there's barely a poke stop, I made a route which is 1.5km and it's already been months and nothing is getting accepted, same with pokestops

[@AngelPhoenixR83]

The best tip I’d say is to create a route you know you use every day. I just created a route that I use to get to/from work and yeah make them short. It’s going be close to a year now. I only need 5 more Zygarde cells, so hopefully by Monday or Tuesday I should have my 100% form Zygarde. 😅

[@skullemoji728]

Congrats on the zygarde! Thanks for the tips as well!

[@chillzone-l2d]

can you keep doing the same route over and over in the same day to get more Zygarde cells? What about doing it forward and backwards?

[@ryanwolfe9794]

At 15 minutes at day for 83 days this adds up to almost 21 hours of driving

[@soul.alone.8745]

QUESTION: I received a 10 day suspension for something they referred to as a violation of guidelines regarding Routes. As God as my witness, I made one or two routes last year, and followed one, once, last Autumn. I have one Zygarde cell!They refuse to answer my appeal. What could have caused this? I don't want a strike against me. I haven't traded in a while, nor do I even own a computer right now.

[@brandonaston301]

Once I learned how they implemented Zygarde I stopped caring about ever changing its form. It will sit as a dog collecting dust for all I care.

[@creightonconnolly5645]

in a previous video I thought you said that route pokemon spawns counted as a cell, and you could only get three per day. So if I saw three route pokemon and/or cell spawns then I'd give up for the day. Maybe I misunderstood.

its per route - so if you see 3 route spawns you won't get a cell on that route - but you can do more - and ya max of 3 cells a day

[@creightonconnolly5645]

@ well thanks, this video has inspired me to try to get the three cells per day when/if I can. I was on less than 20 cells before. Easier now that I know how the system works

[@TheNinjazeke]

The lamest thing is the routes glitch all the time. I’ve twice this week had routes lag out, pause, and say that I didn’t even move when I’m half way through it. I just don’t gaf any more tbh
