Love this video and both of your guys' channels!! Brandon explaining the Bagon Purification and Transfer strategy for an event was crazy to hear. Its insane the amount of optimization that goes into playing this game at the highest level. Keep it up Mystic, I would love to see more videos of this format in the future!

[@ultimodragonPOGO]

but using soo much dust to purify. thats 200 bagons x 5,000 dust thats over 1 million dust. u can ask a friend to create a ptc account. let that person on another country catch pokemons and then trade them to main acc.

@@mythbeastgaming8106 thank you

[@tyyt2146]

Just in case anyone would like to know why it started counting backwards it’s because the xp data was saved as a signed 32bit integer which has a maximum of 2,147,483,647 the reason why it’s exactly that is because the data is stored in 4 bytes (8bits per byte) and the first bit determines positive or negative so only 31 bits actually determine the maximum value which is written like this 2^31 but we must also subtract 1 because binary starts from 0 not 1 so the total maximum is 2^31 - 1. Reason it went negative is because the counting is inverted once the signed bit changes to negative (aka 0 to 1) technically Niantic might have changed it from a signed integer to an unsigned integer making the new maximum represented as 2^32 - 1 which is 4,294,967,295 so it’ll be interesting when Brandon passes that xp barrier it’ll make his xp go back to 0 if it’s an unsigned integer. And once that happens Niantic could just ignore that or if they wanted to represent his data properly they’d need to dedicate 4 more bytes from his profile for a 64 bit integer. Or hopefully change it for everyone in the game as Brandon would literally need a separate database for his account 😂 if they didn’t change it for everyone I’m saying^ in case your curious new maximum would be 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (64 bit signed) 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 (64 bit unsigned) I think that’ll do for Brandon as much as he grinds lol

[@dravenripley9468]

Probably the best part of Brandon is him trying to go to as many community events as possible. Hes one of the main reasons this game had a comeback after the pandemic. Despite what people say this game is still very much alive and still regularly come across people playing.

[@xGR1MREAPERx]

dude is a legend, inspires me to play again.

[@kenbtr7917]

im so glad this happened as ive been watching both of you guys ever since ive gotten into pokemon go GLAD i got to see his account :)

[@K_LCollectibles_Games]

I was just watching Trainer Tips Nick's interview with Brandon last night from 2018. It was interesting and good hearing about his story with Pokémon Go. He's such a nice guy and great part of the community like yourself Mystic 7. I've been playing since day one as well and finally reached level 40 not long ago so the level cap increase seems impossible for me at this point haha.

[@CraynosGaming]

I really enjoyed this interview, @mystic7! I enjoyed seeing Brandon's authenticity and comedy side. Great video! You both rock!
