NEW RELEASE SCHEDULE - New episodes of Lured Up will now drop every Monday!

This was a week of ups and downs in Pokémon GO! We had some new details hit about GO Fest including the announcement that Mega Rayquaza is coming and that all of us will go broke Raiding it! We also have some more details about in person GO Fest including an updated list of New York City spawns! 

You will also have a chance to meet us in NYC as part of the Notable Trainer meet & greet! Find us everyday of the event from 10am-12pm along with some other incredible creators! 

While we will see some vanilla spawns this week, Dark Flames is the next event on the calendar and it brings new Pokémon, a new Shiny, and a new Mega Raid boss! All of this hype is enough to get anyone excited, however we do have to report on some not so great news this week.

PokéMiners has decided to initiate their soft shutdown due to Niantic’s new obfuscation methods that are just too much to keep up with. We discuss what this means for the community and our personal thoughts on things. We wish Marty and team the best of luck with whatever they choose to do next!

Lured Up Podcast 271 - Bring Me The Horizon

Record Date - 6/14/23

Publish Date - 6/16/23

This has been a non stop week with events, vanilla spawns, and a bunch of announcements! We lead with a recap of our gameplay from Beach Week and Axew Community Day. We also had the Lake Guardian make up event which was a fantastic overload of Raids that reset every hour. 

Solstice Horizons is the next event on the calendar, and it is a two for one, with Giovanni returns for the 20th time. Squirtle Community Day is coming in early July and we have been officially teased with some new game features. Summer Game Fest in Los Angeles showed off contests and routes and we are very excited to get our hands on them.

Finally we revisit our conversation about life/game balance. I think this will become a consistent check in going forward, as this game makes balance difficult for some of us! Let us know how you are doing balancing the two!

This week may be the glimmer of hope that this game and Community have been waiting for! Niantic is coming through on their word and stepping up communications in a big way. The big question of the week is whether or not this is the new normal, or just some temporary damage control.

Beach Week has been a solid and fun event but there was a ton of news dropped as well. Details on GO Fest including Regionals and Habitat info have been announced and there is plenty to get through. We are excited to ramp up the hype as we approach the homestretch before GO Fest!

The Hidden Gems news bomb is upon us! We get through our Shadow Mewtwo experiences and feedback and start to unpack the incredible amount of news and updates that Niantic dropped this week! From a full seasonal blog with an accompanying GBL update to multiple event blogs, there is an exceptional amount to unpack!

With Hidden Gems capitalizing on GO Fest Season, we also have new Pokémon, new Shinies, and plenty of new events to discuss throughout the month of June. With Axew Community Day being announced, there is more than enough to keep us busy and get us excited this month!

We hunt for Gold with a Research Day this weekend and welcome back the Water Festival next week, which should set the tone for the rest of the month. The big news of the week however is the interview that Zoë published with Michael Steranka from Niantic! She digs right in and asks a ton of Community based questions and we finally have some direct responses to #HearUsNiantic and the Remote Raid Pass updates: Niantic is holding the line.

With the HearUs campaign still lingering in the air, the game itself is keeping things moving along at a blazing pace. With a flawless Regidrago make up day and Valorous Hero events, it is safe to say the core game is working great. GBL is another story as it continues to be plagued with issues which led to some backlash on GO Battle Day. A $1 Timed Research that was very poorly received by the Community even led to Niantic offering up a free Timed Research to those that bought the ticket.

Fennekin Community Day is this weekend and we also have dates for the next few months as well. July and August are looking to be really busy in game, and we discuss how lingering feelings take away from the impact of any future announcement that Niantic makes.

Team GO Rocket has some news coming this week which comes with the announcement of the Master Ball being released. We are wondering who will be the first to catch a Pidgey or Bidoof in it for the lulz. We wrap things up with a Regigigas Raid guide and Battle Party, and hope that the Community really shows up to Raid it!

The emotional roller coaster continues to rise and fall as we have another very dramatic week in Pokémomn GO. The Silph Road has announced that it will be going dark on August 1st and the entire Community is gutted. We commiserate on how its a shame that it takes something like this to bring the Community together, but here we are. Unfortunately, some are using this as ammunition to attack Niantic.

We did have a pretty busy news week with the Valorous Hero event, and a weekend of Regidrago Raids and GO Battle League. While it would keep Trainers busy, we aren’t exactly sure it is what they wish they were doing. 

In other news we discuss the Global Wayfarer Reviewer Challenge taking place in Spain and how some QoL updates in Wayfarer will make this easier than ever to participate in. 

Finally, Ken briefly shares his experience during his trip to Niantic this week to test out a new game feature. With the state of the current core Community, hopefully Niantic has some serious tricks up their sleeve in order to make the Community happy again.

There is plenty to talk about this week as the newsroom has been super busy! As we wrap up on An Instinctive Hero he also have A Valorous Hero up next on the calendar! With the Community a bit sour on Larvesta rates, it will be interesting to see how they think of the next Team Leader based event.

Kleavor Raid Day was this past weekend and the conspiracy theories are abound! From people thinking that Shiny rates were higher in person than remote to some thinking that the Shiny wasn't even turned on at first. The volatility of the last few weeks is absolutely bubbling over the tipping point as many in the Community are on the edge.

An article that shared one line about Niantic revenue being down sparked a massive wave of syndicated press about the topic. The Hear Us Niantic movement claimed victory for the decline while Niantic bounced back and dismissed the numbers as being false! All of this has triggered the Community as Niantic had no problem responding to financial info while still not acknowledging the Twitter mobs.

The Regidrago announcement has finally come! While it isn’t much of a make good, it is a make-up, which has the Community torn and Adam scorned so bad that he calls out for people to stay home!

We have the May content update which brings back Legendary Pokémon and introduces Mega Pinsir! This Season hasn’t hit as hard as the last few which may be adding to the relaxed vibe that many Trainers are taking. While May is packed with events, the player base may not be too excited for them!

Spark and Team Instinct get their event next with the release of Larvesta, however it is locked behind eggs! With the Community never feeling happy about this style of release, we will have to see how plentiful they are as you need 400 candies to evolve into Volcarona!

The big news of course is the announcement of GO Fest which has sent the Community into a tizzy to secure their tickets. We discuss the event locations and the incredible amount of irony coming from the some of the loud voices on Twitter. Predictably, those boycotting the game had no problem posting up their tickets and travel plans! Oh Community, you never let us down.

This week’s episode is packed with news and events! There is plenty coming to the calendar this month which means there is plenty to discuss! Our weekly recap covers our Togetic Community Day experiences and how in person play, whether with one other person or a large group can make a huge difference in how you experience the game.

Sustainability Week is back and it brings new Pokémon and new Shinies! With a pretty good encounter pool this event looks promising! Leading into Swinub Community Day Classic, this could be a really positive week for gameplay!

Shaymin Special Research for Sustainability Week has been announced as well as a Stunfisk/G. Stunfisk Limited Research Day! With so much going on, we discuss if these events are following their normal cadence or if this could be a smokescreen to hide from responding to real issues!

Once we get through the news the discussion shifts to HearUsNiantic and how it is a real possibility that Niantic does not respond at all. Could a response to the angry mob be taken as a sign of weakness? How can Niantic respond in a way that doesn’t address the anger but still addresses why they made their decisions? Good times!
