Another shortcut for Annihilape is you buddy the Primape you then find a grunt that's going to use ghost (Ke...Ke...Ke) or psychic pokemon start the battle. Only kill 2 of his pokemon then quit the battle. RESTART the battle and do that 14 times. Defeat the grunt on the 15th time and there you go task completed you get to evolve into Annihilape

also fighting Blanche in Master League tier has a metagross as the second Pokémon, so you can kill it and quit then restart over and over. use a grass or electric type for the suicune, then a fire or ground type for metagross. it’s a bit slower than other methods like finding a rocket grunt, but it’s always available so you can make progress consistently.

From what I've seen ppl were saying rates were 0% or just obscenely low, so either I was extremely lucky or the rng was indeed out of wack for everyone else. As for shiny espeon and umbreon, this was the first time Niantic ADVERTISED that they'd be shiny in the wild but eeveelutions have been shiny in the wild for some time now, but being extremely rare. I only know this because I was able to find a shiny umbreon in the wild a few years ago.

At this point I refuse to believe Niantic is doing this AGAIN on accident. With all the mistakes they've made, they should know better by now. I think they know that player engagement is at it's max when we have a high demand shiny pokemon to hunt. However that engagement drops off as an event goes on from players catching the shiny or getting bored. So if they 'accidentally' turn off shiny pokemon for a day, that extend the engagement one extra day. Keeps plays raiding and in the game longer which translates to more profits. Might not seem like much, but this could potentially translate into millions of dollars of extra profit. And all they have to do is post some lame apology on their twitter, give away some free passes, and wait a few months to do it again. It's a scam.
@nlbite10 ай бұрын
Just look at the company track record for the past year alone. Every change they've made has been geared toward saving money and squeezing more dollars from players. Letting go of employees, increasing prices of passes, have more paid bonuses for every event, and so on. Why should we assume their mistakes aren't also driven by greed? Either it's an attempt to scam players OR it's a result of them cutting corners in the game development. Corruption or incompetence. Either way, it's bad.
