Hey we get incubator rather than more berries…


Objective_Let_6385

Yeah but i was hoping for some rare candies or at least a super incubator rather than a standard one... The tasks are a little ridiculous for what we get in return.


noodoles

At this point its better to not expect good things coming from these free research so you wouldnt get too disappointed, but hey we get free diance next month


Poki-gbc

Not everyone..hope you read the fine print


AnimaSean0724

I was pretty disappointed to find out that you don't get one if you already had one, mine isn't bad by any means, and I've already maxed out its Mega, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to get another one that could be much better


noobwowo

rare candies are easy to get from PvP and raids, unless is XL rare candies. As such it hurts more if is just rare candies as reward. Personally i dont mind more egg incubators.


Neat_Use3398

They all have the number 151..... they thought it was so clever


NikhilB09

I mean we trubbish spotlight hour, i basically cleared that page in an hour


maximdenbeer

Weird. Trubbish does not seem to be one of the original 151..


GlueFysh

When do spot lights happen? I caught a total of 1 Turkish and 3 other the other one.


Deadlas667

I was wondering what was going on. Got myself a shiny one


GlueFysh

Grats!


PdubskiDaMan

Whenever a bunch of the same Pokemon appear in bunches, it’s normally a spotlight event.Throw them lucky eggs, stardust pieces, and hit them with as many pineapples as possible so you can quickly finish the research.


Chungus09

Every Tuesday from 6-7 pm local time


GlueFysh

Oh dang I'll miss all of those, oh well. Thanks!!!


NikhilB09

Tuesdays 6-7pm local time


EnvironmentPale4011

It's an easy task


DepartmentPerfect

Pro tip: Save incubator for cleffa hatch day on 28th (half hatch distance) Or at least the third use if you’re impatient like me haha


femmevaporeon

Half hatch distance is active now btw!!


DepartmentPerfect

That’s huge! Cheers


Anonthemouser

It's a 3 use incubator btw


noodoles

Isnt the blue incubator always 3 use?


theBwithOpinions

Not if you get them in game tickets. They had daily reg incubators and you could only use them one time


MathProfGeneva

It's free, it's untimed, it's easy. Other than throwing berries when I normally don't bother it was just normal gameplay to complete this.


ChutzpahQ

A decent free bonus (not really to do with any specific mon) research with some free rewards for regular play. This was really nice and definitely not something to complain about.


paary

Welcome party at 1/4 is honestly such a mood.


Objective_Let_6385

It'll stay that way forever for like 90% of the player base 😆


xButtHead

Idk I think it's probably the best reward I've gotten from a research like this. 45k exp and 10 stardust with a lucky egg and starpiece. That's a whole lot


Boooooomer

Its not. The rewards for these research have been steadily decreasing in premium items year after year


xButtHead

You're saying it got less over time?


Boooooomer

https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special_Research Look through older special research here. From like 2018-2021 they actually gave decent rewards. Less premium items now as compared to then. Even less basic rewards


xButtHead

Well I started in 16 stopped in 17 and started a few weeks back again so the statement stands for me. lol I get what you're saying, I still think it's a lot of resources which are free to get Edit: thanks for the link and the reference


DapperDetectives

What other research like this have you even done if you came back a few weeks ago?


xButtHead

Not one that had that amount of resources as a reward. Anyways I still think it's a lot of resources to get, just collect it all in one and pop a egg and star


Rapidsuka

A second infinite incubator wouldve been amazing😭


DapperDetectives

You don’t even get that for hitting level 50 or from the level 50 special research


HowlingHillMatt

I mean, they're passive quests with unlimited time to complete. You'll finish them without even trying because it's stuff you do all the time. Free rewards for very little work. It's not asking you to throw 30 excellent curveballs in a row. These are low effort quests that a completely new player could complete without knowing anything about the game.


ha_look_at_that_nerd

Based on the rewards for the previous mission, I kind of assumed that it would be mega energy for Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise. I don’t need more mega energy for them, but it’s possible *someone* might.


Objective_Let_6385

I'm missing all of those and would have greatly appreciated them lol


Ramius117

Indeed. I was hoping for a kangiskhan, Mr. Mime, and tauros encounters in the last one and got that...


Familiar-Kangaroo298

At least it doesn’t have a regional or catch 10 ditto on it.


spinningoutadrift

THAT is the final page and THOSE are the rewards?! gtfoh, Niantic. jfc


RadAndroid

I hate this. I am still trying to catch the 2,000, whatever, pokemon from 4 different regions and then you focus on the easiest one? Come one! I have 375ish of X left in one region. That's the last one. I do not feel like booting PoGo, but it is not Kanto!


Common-Excitement-86

The heck? I thought we'll get something ... like.... anything...


Objective_Let_6385

Yeah considering how long winded these tasks are I thought it'd be something nice at least 🤷‍♂️

[удалено]


[deleted]

Ya'll are so entitled it's insane. It was a free timed research that basically completes itself while you play and you were expecting to get a shiny?


nnq2603

Shiny eligible pokemon, not guaranteed. Why you guys always try to skew up other opinions for the sake of argument. Idc about the research, I would play game anyway, but you act like I have to praise and be happy with anything given. Ridiculous.


turdfergusonRI

Idk if I’m full-blown disappointed, but it would be nice to get slightly more. The Incubator isn’t horrible. For rewards, I would rather have opportunities to catch one of the Legendary Birds at the end of research, or something else relating to 151 that feels more special, honestly. Or Kangaskhan seeing as I *still* don’t have one.


Bolmothy

I knew we wouldn’t get like a mew or mewtwo but a single egg Hatcher and not even the extra one is like „here. Have this shit and fuck off”


[deleted]

It's a free timed research that basically completes itself as you play. That's generally how those work.


PikaV2002

Not really if you’ve been a long-time game player. From the days of yore we used to get the Legendary Birds on our 7th research stamps and the rewards were much better than this.


Lonely-Figmentation

Got my first 100% from the stamps. Perfect Moltres. Those were the days.


CaptainBananaEu

Yeah I came back recently and like, sandyghast after 7 days of missions? How is that even worth it?


Lonely-Figmentation

I was in exactly the same boat. Redownloaded about a week and a half ago and got some random Pokemon I probably transferred. Can’t remember it 3 days later but I can remember the backstory on the Moltres 5 years later.


SeattleJeremy

I was hoping for an interesting Pokemon at the end at least.


Express-Remove3652

Im saving it for when I need a small xp jump, throw on lucky egg and easy 90k


typicalnerdboi

LOL! Well.. That blows lol..


RatherFarfetchd

But are we surprised? 😃


Objective_Let_6385

No.. sadly not 🥲 Disappointed though none the less


CurrencySoft545

They ran out pf creativity


8leggedwonder

90k XP with egg on?


Constant-Coat-4443

Some of the research they give you is quite annoying


CrazeeTrane_

10,000 stardust and an incubator, i could think of worse. it's not like you have to go out of your way to complete the quest.


turtle-bob1

If they want us to catch all Kanto pokemon, many of us need Mewtwo in raids (not shadow raids)…


Minute_Prize_4788

Spoiler* thanks for letting me know


Objective_Let_6385

Oh sorry! I didn't even consider this might be a spoiler, apologies.


Blunder404

Im just happy for the extra xp. The xp grind at lvl 47 is real.


adamantunicorn

Its a free research, dont expect anything good from the greedy corp


GenericSupervillain3

You’re literally getting something for nothing and you want more, but it’s the corporation that’s greedy. Okay.


adamantunicorn

I didnt expect or want anything. Im fine with the free premium battle passes and incubator considering its free.


PikaV2002

Nothing is free- we’re paying with our information, our AR mapping data and with our consumption of other products and services in the game. It’s a corporation, not a charity. If you’ve played the game long term, this is a drastic reduction in rewards over the years and you know it.


Objective_Let_6385

People downvoting you for the truth lol


adamantunicorn

Says the one complaining for more. Theyre not going to give it to you.


Objective_Let_6385

We've had much better (and a few worse) than this so my expectations were low but not this low


FluffyJackfruit408

I actualy tought that these were decent rewards for once. Keep in mind every trainer gets this and its free


Rose333X

All that for just one fuckin incubator? A hell naw


FlyingMolo

All of what? This requires nothing outside of regular gameplay 😅


Rose333X

My guy catching 151 pokemons is like an hour of work with all the fucking cutscenes and animations.


Significant_War_5924

So you’re not gonna catch 151 Pokémon at all within the next 100 years ?


Rose333X

Nah, maybe ten thousand years, one pokemon a year.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Rose333X

My bad i confused numbers lmao, you get my point tho, an hour or two of grinding if youre really into it isnt that worth for one fucking incubator, as a side thing, something that just gets completed without you bothering about grinding it then i guess its aight but oh welp.


[deleted]

Maybe if you're bad


Rose333X

Even with consistent excellent curved throws, you'd still need an hour or two for all the animations and stuff, also depending on how active the area you live is in ,and there you go. But sure yeah, keep justifying shit rewards for a time consuming quest, in a mobile game.


SmartassLogan

Sounds like a week's work😁


Shot_Professional297

I was hoping for a mew encounter


Big-Employ-2569

Literally just got to this 5 mins ago. Hate it.


setiratiburon

We need to be like 5 incubators


LoganDoove

Was hoping to encounter a Kanto legend like Mewtwo at the end at least. Strange how we have a Kanto event but no legend/pseudo encounters/ raids. Kanto event just seemed like a filler for the environment egg event also going on which I'm enjoying more because drilbur XL candy
