IGVault, Power Level and Catching Services You Can Trust.

Pokemon Go is a very time-consuming game; as is anything where you have to grind to achieve a high ranking. While this aspect of gaming can be fun and rewarding for a lot of people. Others simply just don’t have time to chase after mystical levels or catch the same Magikarp 100 times in a row to get a Gyarados. Honestly, though, not many people really have the time it takes to get their favorite Pokemon leveled up all the way or go out and evolve a Dratini into a Dragonite. Everything in Pokemon Go is time-consuming to the max when it comes to grooming your perfect battle team to compete in gyms with.

For starters, in order to level up your pokemon, you need something called Stardust. You generally get about 100 stardust from capturing a Pokemon which isn’t a lot when you have a team of six and to even start leveling one of them 1,000 stardust is needed. While you could just gym grind or go out for a Pidgey catching spree both of these aren’t very efficient ways to quickly level. There is, of course, hatching 10K egg that will net you 2,000 stardust at once, but that requires you to walk around or bike somewhere for about 5 miles which can be a hassle to find time or a place to do after your daily activities. So, what do you do when you want to catch up with your more free running friends to take down or add to their towering gyms?

The answer is simple and comes from our friends over at igvault.com. it’s a service known as power leveling that can be securely done and purchased through their Go experienced website. On addition, you can also request for any of the Pokemon in Go to be caught for you in your game, which is a huge bonus for anyone living in more rural areas where Pokemon only spawn in small numbers without much variation.

How does this work exactly you ask? Well, first you put in the amount of Stardust or choose the Pokemon that you would wish caught for you. Afterwards, you will be asked for a payment method and your account information which will be securely held and only used for the service. Depending on the amount of Stardust you want it can take as short as 15 minutes or as long as 3 days. The same thing applies to Pokemon as well, for example, if you want a few Eevees they will generally be caught rather quickly and returned to you, while a wild Dragonite may take quite a few hours to obtain. They will effectively gather your resources and catch the Pokemon of your request as quickly as possible.

The service also offers returns if it has not been completed and 24/7 chat assistance for any questions that you may have pop up. If you are concerned about security, the site has been around since 2006 with positive ratings and has dealt with more games than just Go.

As a bonus, I talked with a representative and was told that Pokemon generally take around half a day and 80k stardust usually takes about one day as well.

 

Ash, Misty, and Brock Are Team what?!

There has been many memes and stereotypes created ever since the release of Niantic’s most successful game, Pokémon Go. All of which, have been fully embedded within the Pokémon Go community. That being said, people have taken full pride in their allegiance to team Valor, Mystic, or Instinct. These friendly yet divisive teams have been in existence for a while without someone questioning something. That being, which team were the original Pokémon trio – Ash, Misty, and Brock – a part of? Surely, Pokémon Goers would be curious as to know. Why wouldn’t a trainer learn more about the OG trainers, despite the fact that one of them keeps losing? (Let’s not point the fingers)

Well, for all intents and purposes, let it be known that Ash is Team Valor, Misty is Team Mystic (who saw that coming??), and Brock is Team Instinct. There is no disputing it because the evidence is irrefutable.

You might be wondering “how in the world do you know what team they represented?” Well, let me plunge you back into the Johto League. Do you recall this?:

Why Pokemon Go Is A Positive Impact For Communties

Pokemon Go was undoubtedly one of the biggest smash hits of the summer, taking over town hot spots and streets all over the world. Now with the wait for the 2nd generation of Pokemon to enter the fray it’s always nice to take a step back and look at the positive impact Go had in communities around the world. From big cities to rural towns that were struggling to bring business into their shops the rampant chasing of Pikachus throughout streets caused a lot of positive changes.

First off, if you’re a local business owner you celebrated if your shop became one of the coveted Poke Stops that all the trainers gathered at. If you were a restaurant you could sell food and drinks all day long by just simply putting a lure up. For more retail based shops you could offer discounts for showing your app or the team you liked best. Online artists even made extra money just by making T-shirt designs for Valor, Instinct, and Mystic to sell to excited fans. Local Walmarts and chain stores even jumped on board with most of them having pop up poke-sections with plushies and portable phone chargers on display.

For players of the popular app, Poke hunting was a great way to find a new favorite restaurant or store. I can’t count the amount of people who have said they found a great coffee shop because they were running low on Pokeballs. Maybe you even went to exploring through the city for a Charmander that popped up on your radar and found a new comic shop to spend your time at? The benefits of just exploring your local area were huge since our society has become so much less inclined to go searching for hidden treasures throughout town.  Not to mention on the flip side of being a trainer probably earned you quite a few discounts at these places!

If shopping isn’t your thing you can’t deny the benefit of all the exercise you got from just walking around to hatch eggs.  The smallest egg you can hatch may just be 2KM, but that’s still just about a mile of exercise for you that you may not have gotten otherwise. Even chasing down Pokemon that you desperately wanted helped out with perseverance a lot. So, what if it was a few streets over, that Dragonite was had 1,500 CP and was more than worth it for your team. Pokemon Go turned into the ultimate secret workout routine for many and with the hot summer days and nights it had to be one of the best workouts you could get!

Lastly, how many new social interactions did you have when trying to find new Pokemon? All over the world people found themselves teaming up with all types of different trainers to try and hunt down Pokemon popping up on their radars. Some even teamed up in order to lessen the cost of keeping lures going at popular spots. Maybe if you were lucky you may have even found a significant other or the best friend you never knew you wanted?

All in all the interactions created by the original 151 Pokemon have already been amazing and hopefully, Generation 2 will do even better when it launches!

Pokemon Go Nest party?!

If you have not heard, there has been a lot of talk regarding Pokémon Go Nest that was initiated by those a part of Silph Road. This discussion involves the possibility of encountering an evolution of a specific Pokémon within their Pokémon Go Nest. For example, you can encounter a Charizard or a Charmeleon in a Charmander. A Pokémon Go Nest is essentially a particular small area that a Pokemon is commonly located. So the next time you are out and about fulfilling your dream of becoming a trainer, make sure to maintain composure when you encounter the evolved form of the Pokémon of your choice.

There is no concrete evidence or data on the likeliness of encountering these evolved forms. However, rumor has it that, the chances are quite moderate so; there is no need to discouraged if the evolved form of any of the Pokémon denies to be your partner.

This addition via the Third Migration – which is the Pokémon nests relocating – has made it easier for Pokémon Goers to max out their PokéDex, level up, and obtain candies. In light of these changes, it has made Pokémon Go an augmented reality game that is geared towards beginners – which leaves pros in the midst of a fog. If they continue to implement these mechanisms that are geared towards beginners, then Niantic has a huge wave of the loss of revenue heading their way. Hopefully Niantic can implement more content to address this growing issue.

What do you think they should add to address this issue? Let us know in the comments below.

Pokemon Go, it has been a good run . .

Pokémon Goers, sad news have been bestowed upon us. Pokémon Go’s 74 day winning streak has finally concluded. For the sake of clarification, Pokémon Go is no longer the highest grossing app. It was superseded by Clash Royale. You know, the game that has the commercial with the guy rolling the “r’s” in every word. “These are the rrrrrrrrrules of the duel”. Yeah, that game. Though, there is a caveat – Niantic’s most successful creation is no longer the highest grossing app in the US iOS system. It is still the highest grossing app in the Play Store under Google, and it is still the highest grossing app in other country’s iOS system. Those countries include Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal, Australia, Great Britain, Belgium, Denmark, and Thailand. So there are definitely still records to be broken in those countries.

While on the topic of records being broken, Pokémon was able to place third when it comes to the most consecutive days at being the highest grossing app. It is preceded by the famous Clash of Clans and Candy Crush Saga.

Despite being uncrowned, Niantic can definitely pat itself on the back. However, they shouldn’t catch themselves in a jubilating environment because the question now is:

How will they stimulate the consumers to put more dollars into their game?

 

Niantic has done it?!

Ever since the release of Pokémon Go, there have been numerous of third parties that have developed ways to assist Pokémon Goers in obtaining the Pokémon of their choosing –  such as this one. These ways include providing up-to-date news, IV calculators, and GPS Pokémon locators. All of these facets of the Pokémon Go community are the key to being a successful trainer. That being said, I am here to inform you all that one of these facets will return to the power of the creators of Pokémon Go – Niantic.

“Which one is it?” you might be saying.

Get a load of this:
Niantic has released a beta version that tests the compatibility of a GPS Pokémon locator in Pokémon Go itself.

(Click here to see it.)

This ultimately means that all other programs of GPS Pokémon locators are essentially rendered useless. Niantic providing a company owned GPS Pokémon locator could be considered a good thing or a bad thing. It depends from which lens you are looking through. Of course, for Pokémon Goers, it is a wonderful thing. It provides more accuracy when it comes to the location of the sought out Pokémon. Consequentially, it gives Pokémon Goers a more sense of comfort because they don’t have to put any trust in third parties that create their own GPS Pokémon locators.

 

             

Now, you might be wondering why you haven’t seen this beta version. The simple answer is that it was only released in San Francisco, the home of Niantic. However, it is definitely something to look forward to right? Let us know how you feel about this.

Is Pokemon Go Plus Malfunctioning?

Is Pokémon Go Plus fulfilling its expectation as the ultimate gadget of Pokémon Go? So far, that is not the case. With Pokémon Go Plus release date being tomorrow, despite being delayed, the highly anticipated device is creating faces that resemble that of ‘Gloom’s’ on fans. These reactions are caused by the fact that there seems to be a low chance of actually catching the Pokémon.

This is essentially adding gas on the fire because, as it is, you cannot catch Pokémons that are not registered in your PokéDex – which has left a lot of fans dumbfounded. Pokémon Go Plus is designed to assist Pokémon Goers by notifying them of nearby Pokémon via buzzing. You are then left with the option to either catch it by pressing a button on the device or to not catch it by completely ignoring the notification. If you decide to catch the Pokémon, there will be an indication of whether the capture was successful or not by emitting green or red light respectively. So far, Pokémon Goers have been receiving the infamous red light – which is causing the unhappy reactions. Not to mention, the lack of options when it comes to which PokéBall you would like to use. Normally, this would not be an issue if it was the handheld game. However, Pokémon Go is not a handheld game and does not provide unlimited resources, so wasting PokéBalls is not ideal – especially if you are a high level.

Ironically enough, there are, what we would call, “positives” to Pokémon Go Plus. Despite the “negatives” I have mentioned, Pokémon Go Plus serves as a tracking system i.e. it tracks the distance the individual has completed. This means that it affects your hatching ability and your candy acquisition in a positive way i.e. you are able to hatch more eggs and evolve more Pokémons. So, that is definitely a plus.

All in all, this has been quite the eye opener for a lot of Pokémon Goers – so much so that there are rumors of a lot of cancellations occurring – which makes me wonder if whether or not Pokémon Go Plus is the ultimate device?

I Pledge My Allegiance
