[@BobbyJCFHvLichtenstein]

The ONLY positive is that the Excellent throws were pretty easy to grind

[@deedeeschway9566]

Also if you grind XP doing Evolution Spotlight hours, it’s a good time to stock up on the 12 candy bugs and get extra candy.

[@omarholder9036]

​@@deedeeschway9566that form of XP grinding is antequated. Just grind friendship bonuses, stack them and do it all at once.

[@RyanRakowski]

Larvesta is also in the 2 km eggs for anyone that wants to grind Larvesta. Honestly, I think the event is good for anyone that wants to grind XP. It only takes 12 candies to evolve a Wurmple, a Weedle or a Caterpie and then you just transfer the second evolution.

[@whitestar7311]

For the biome thing it would probably suck for a lot of people if the spawns were coordinated to areas, it works in mainline games because it’s a whole world in the game, Irl people can’t travel like that. And the new character update is abysmal.

[@noscopegamer.]

Says volcanian for a bug type 😂

Eh, volcanian volcarona, potato patato

Exactly it’s not that bad

[@chimichongaz]

I'm just happy we finally get an event with a whole bunch of Kricketot, he's my favourite :)

[@AntFaiellaArt]

I went to Naples Florida for vacation last week. I was hoping that this year would finally be my chance to shiny hunt or at least Hundo hunt the Florida exclusives, Corsola, Heracross, Carnivine, & Maractus (yes, I know its shiny is not in the game yet.). However, thanks to this bug event, almost none of them spawned for me…. 😢😢 At least I got 2 shiny Heracross from the Mega Heracross raid event on Saturday, so I’m very happy about that.

[@TypicalMetsFan]

That’s such bs. I’m sorry dude:(

[@danieliusblackius1130]

I found like 4 shiny Nincada in the last couple weeks. First two were from a nest that spawned in a park near me, and then 2 more during the event. Also a random Audino nest... had no idea that thing could nest - stardust galore.

[@travishomewood8657]

Honestly going back to Kanto is a tried and true method to get attention. Older players may not care but may want to get a better specific pokemon, for various things and newer players may not have as many good kanto pokemon since when they started up there are just so many now. In addition I will say the Kanto pokemon always tend to be relevant.

[@MattySadler]

I enjoyed chasing shiny Wurmple, Burmy, Combee and Kricketot this event, but agree the lack of anything new being released was disappointing.

[@superbitesizedbuckets2451]

Scyther has definitely been spawning for me

[@Minato0033]

This is a great event for people who aren’t level 50 and don’t go to every safari event. So ya, I think it’s a very cool event. I grinded the hell out of the sinnoh tour and go fest and couldn’t get shiny combee or burmy! This event I got a female shiny combee and a burmy. As someone who can’t travel the world whenever. I loved this event. Scyther was also spawning

So true Mystic7 I feel you…. The feeling is mutual….. worst 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

The only reason that Sustainability Week looks so lackluster, is because there happens to be ANOTHER event happening right around the time of Sustainability Week that’ll be taking the Wild Spawns for sure. Any guess as to what that event’ll be? Oh, you guessed it. *“Rediscover Kanto”*

[@vlad4184]

my scizor encounter from the event research was a shiny

[@zepikeno4444]

Day 8 of asking mystic to collect all the research in a video

[@near3d945]

The bio spawn sound fun and exciting on paper but I think it will be bad in practice. Most people don't move around to a lot of bio's. So seasonal spawn would start to feel bad even faster especially if you don't travel a lot.

[@voidastralbirth]

I’ve been actively hunting for a shiny male Burmy… but it’s a little difficult, considering how the game would rather give me everything BUT the “Catch 5 Pokemon” event research.

as im watching this video the avatar rework already went live. and im not gonna lie. i hate it. the face for females is ugly, skincolour is either too pale or just not what i think my avatar should look like. and many of my outfits just look garbage now for some reason. i played with it a lot already to see if i could find something that kinda resembled the old avatar look. but its just gone. im kinda sad about it..

[@Crimson_Aura]

I've had the books update since it first got released, but for me and my friends it makes the game SO INSANELY laugh that UT takes about 10 seconds to throw a poke ball. Its a cool visual update but they need to fix the laggyness

[@zerozoroark4631]

I mean it sucks because bugs are not rare compared to other typings. You usually encounter wurmples, kricketots and combees when their region first came out.

[@TheShockwave114]

I really like that you are back to making Pokemon Go content again. You really know how to turn a positive spin on everything

[@rr23210]

@Mystic7 Sustainability Week is bad this year because it also goes with the Rediscover Kanto and the new maps

[@TC-0400am]

Only thing wrong is that April 16's spotlight hour feature is not double evolve XP. We could saved all the 12 candies evolve on that day and evolve + lucky egg em. But nope. That didn't happen. What a bummer.

I got a shundo beedril from the collection challange

[@jmooj]

This event has been god awful in terms of spawns. There ARE bugs that people like, but they aren't exactly getting boosted. Scyther and Nincada are the only ones I've seen, and they're super rare when they should be normal spawns. You absolutely had it right that the spawns are terrible.

[@hamedsafi7715]

they need to fix the special shadow events cause shadow mewtwo is cool and fun but its not fun driving from gym to gym really takes away from the whole point of what the company wants when they killed remote raids. also doesnt feel safe cause some people just drive crazy

[@erigo91]

I dont think it was a bad event, plus i got two shiny burmys

[@janhalliday7926]

Bug Out has been a bit hit and miss for me. I only managed to get one shiny male combee last night from the general spawns. I got a shiny burmy and a shiny ferroseed a few weeks ago, weirdly getting an upcoming featured shiny in the weeks before an event has happened a few times to me. Where I feel like I really got lucky was in the collection challenge encounters, I managed to get a shiny shedinja and a shiny scizor so over all I’m happy with the shinies I got.

[@firebirdalex3521]

Did you really say volcanion

[@davisuko_]

If they don't get rid of those dang baby faces and give us our old avatars back with just hair and weight customization I'll be upset tbh, I hate looking at my character. Which means a lot when some of us paid money for outfits or accesories that now look worse.

[@rasmusstrand9991]

I have had a theory for a while of why they havent released so many gen8 pokemon yet and want to know if the theory sounds good. We all love Mega pokemon, they are good for grinding candy, raids and cool to change the pokemons appearance. But right now we got like 8-9 megas left to get released, then what? Gigantamaxing. In gen 8 games Sword and Shield it was a big thing to dynamax your pokemon to make it bigger and stronger, but some pokemon like gengar and lapras got gigantamax form, like megas but they become bigger aswell, so I think when all the megas are released I think we will get more gen8 pokemon with this as another Mega system that works the same way

[@reversevital]

1:15 Since when is Volcanion a bug type??

[@crisrocas7924]

I think he meant volcarona

[@KenrickGeary]

Ok I will what for part 2. WHAT DID THEY DO TO POKEMON. It was so much better back than

[@Vamiy_mediroy]

Actually i tought this was great you know how female combee are really rare i got one and got my mega scizor and mega charizard cause this event

[@100MilesEast]

The worst part is that after raids I had a timer showing up, but I haven't noticed big change in the number of pokemon spawning around or rare spawns. That was a dissapointment. I still am missing few shinies out of those spawning during this event. But guess what? I didn't get any new shiny.

[@andrewsanderson3905]

The only thing that the bug type is good for is collecting a whole bunch of them. And then at the end, put on a lucky egg and evolve them all good for XP.

[@ryancroy451]

[@jasonmetcalfe4695]

[@brocklee9202]

Larvesta should've been a rare spawn, and they should've released Tarountula, 110%. The only good thing I got from the Sustainability event was a shiny Drilbur from the walk 2km research task. Larvesta should definitely be more accessible now, like no one's paying for incubators anymore, just to get a Larvesta 😂 just let the people have it

[@yaminaschneider9900]
