Pro tip: It’s relatively easy to get all the eevee evolutions without the name trick. Don’t use it when you need the evolutions to level up. Use the name trick to guarantee you get the shiny evolutions.

Save the Eevee naming until Level 42 requirements. You need to evolve each one to get to the next level. Found that out the hard way. Also, save evolutions that need an item (King’s Rock for instance) as you’ll need to evolve 15 that way.

The thing with the route is wrong! It only works if you missed a zygarde cell, if you didn't miss one, no cells will appear.

The route feature is much better now. It doesn't automatically complete when you get close to the end so you can walk right up to the end. And in my experience they spawn most of the time and always around the end of the route

I started a year after the game came out, so I had heard of the trick. Pikachu was the only Pokémon I knew so I chose that. What I didn't know was there was a special encounter that week so mine had ash hat

Thanks for another entertaining video Mystic, you made my day ☺️😄

I’m sorry, but grammatically, the “was” in the title should be “were” as you are addressing a plural noun “Things”

Thanks for the Eevee evolution trick. I’ve always wanted to catch them all.

I struggled a lot with evolve a magikarp, because for some reason there just wasn’t event spawning magikarp, and it was not as common as it used to be (I played in 2016-2017, quit, then rejoined like 2022 on a new account)

I’m on the level 50 research and I’m happy to encounter another MewTwo ❤ thanks for the info

5:00 No, Meloetta that has been caught from special research won’t change your music, I’ve tried

I'm sure you could get most of the mythicals via special research as long as you're in a certain part of the mew quest

I didn’t know it was poss to move the tags! This made my day!! 🥰

you could also have mentioned that the Raid boss last ball is always either escape on the first nudge, or catch if it doesn't escape on the first nudge.

The rock and pop Pikachus can also change the music

with the mythical discovery, getting to certain steps grants you research for meloetta and celebi. meloetta is unlocked at stage 2 (i think) and celebi is unlocked at step 8

Didn’t know about the Eevee name trick. Ironically named mine Pyro back in the day, and came back to it after a long time and now it’s a Flareon

Dont forget the Meltan mystery box I didnt know about that until last month

I literally just need to catch a ditto to move on on the mythical discovery

Also, on the current loading screen, there is a grubbin, which represents the grubbin community day

I literally discovered the free pokeball incense yesterday. Great video!!!

4:51 LOL the bopping. That's just a very boppable music ngl

mystic7 i have a question, should i purify my shadow shiny lugia into my first ever shundo, I have another 90 iv shadow lugia and i don't know if i should purify to the shundo lugia?

names for eeveelutions are at 2:34 :)

2:05 Pikachu WAS always on the world champion Ash's shoulder until the OG anime ended.

I think the Eevee-evolution name trick resets after a couple years. Or else they reset it when they added level 42(?) tasks. I remember using it a few years back, and then trying it for level 42 and being surprised that it worked. But really stock up on Eevee and evolve them at random.

I'm ngl alot of these I acc didn't know. Cool vid

pikachu on the pikachu fan medal!!! thats wild!!! i never would have known!!!

i got melloetta and it doesn't change the music when i put it as my buddy for some reason

When DunBun adds a hard sonic question it makes me like bro more than the original

Yo, i was right in Waikiki watching this when I saw your mythical pokemon part. Cheers

I have two cosmog checks right now. I haven’t claimed them and I’m waiting until the shiny comes out. Would it be possible for it to shiny when it debuts or are my research ones set and stone even though I haven’t claimed them yet.

Buddy functionality idea / introduction of “bottle caps”: What if for a certain amount of Km walked with a buddy, the buddied Pokémon were to find a bottle cap where, when applied, would increase or decrease the buddy’s IVs by 1. For this idea, let’s say the Km needed to “find a bottle cap” were based on the rarity of the Pokémon and would multiply by 1.2x each IV gained. For example, based on the eggs the Pokémon hatch from, or the level raid needed for the reward encounter, would determine if you needed 20 (tier1), 30 (tier3), 40 (tier4) or 50Km (tier5) walked for a single IV change. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Charmander, they would need to walk 148.832km (round to 149) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Gible, they would need to walk 297.664km (round to 298) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. If a trainer had a 10/15/15 IV Mewtwo, they would need to walk 446.496km (round to 447) with the buddy Pokémon to get to 100% IVs. The same math would be applied to reduce IVs for PVP Pokemon. In addition to finding bottle caps with your buddy walking, perhaps they could be found in other activities by your buddy. Such as spinning stops/ raids/ gym battling / etc. This would also be EXTREMELY rare. To avoid problems with caught 100%s, the stat changes could be visibly different than normal stats with the following: * a notation on the Pokémon screen * different colored IVs showing a bottle cap was applied * the CP of these bottle capped Pokémon would be -1 of actual 100%s or PVP IVed caught Pokémon * the 100% bottle capped would not be searchable with 4* but would have a search just for “bottle capped.” Pros: - This would make spoofing or radar services less profitable and encourages more gameplay with the same Pokémon. - Entices player to “bond” with a single Pokémon for longer and therefore play the game more often to get the coveted 100% dex. - Allows all types of players to get 100%s while also not flooding the player base with actual 100%s. Cons: - All players would have access to the best Pokémon if they walk enough - The need to catch all Pokémon would be reduced slightly If you can think of any other pros/cons, reply to this comment so we can share our thoughts about the idea and maybe someone at Niantic will pick it up! Ideas welcomed and I’ll update the post accordingly. Side note: Could it be this is why Ash Ketchum’s Pikachu was so powerful? Because Ash built a string relationship with him? Second side note: friend me so we can help each other to lvl50! Comment your trainer for so you can get friends with other’s who read this post! 6436 8135 6368

Shiny legendary is actually a 0% catch rate if you’re traveling at 55mph or more

Wow didn’t know that!

wish i knew the eeveelution name trick when i got my shiny eevee (i evolved it and got a shiny flareon) :(

I actually caught a shiny unknown that was the same letter as my first name's first letter during go fest 2023 in Seattle, my first in person pokemon go event.

Wild that after 6 years we only got the master ball this year

The name trick works for every evolution, but only once per evolution. If you want 2 vaporeons and a jolteon, you can guarantee one of each but have to get lucky for the second vaporeon

We don't has White Kyurem and Black Kyurem in this year Holiday Christmas Event but we mostly will has White Kyurem and Black Kyurem next year Holiday Christmas Event road on the way to Unova Tour!

This has been a good season

When i completed the task for the random unown, i ended up getting the q which I was super excited about because it's one of the rarer ones

Cheap Franken trick saying, "Free legendary.".. ... "Complete a research."

When I'm watching this, I saw the screen with hisuian starters show up when I opened the game this afternoon.

also the pre evo to magmar you can hug it when its ur buddy

i just caught a shiny lechonk in pokemon go while watching your giritina altered form shiny transfer challenge after only 50 encounters

6:28 how'd you get your pokédex to do that?

Zygarde doesn't evolve it just changes it form with more cells

This is pretty cool

yeah,not gonna lie,i got each zygarde cell per route yesterday,i completed two route and managed to get two zygarde cells

i caught a Meloetta completing finding your voice on 2023.

Been years since ive played but heres another one some might not know, the Pokémon that spawns aftee you take pictures of it in AR, its like a paint brush Pokémon

Soooo Good love the video

I only catch zorua instead of ditto every single time.

I still don't really care about reaching level 50 since I don't want Team GO Rocket to scale with the level I'm at lol

I've seen comments on "infinity Master ball". It's for one of the researches, timed or special. Can't remeber now. These DOESN'T consume balls. I have confirmed this myself. And what happens apparently is that it goes for the Master Ball as well. So you catch the Pokémon with Master Ball and because it doesn't count, you can keep your Master Ball. Haven't seen any credible sources and haven't dared to try it myself 😅

0:50 Yes it can, I got the shiny out of the level 50 challenge

Ohhhhh I thought it was one zygarde cell per day but it’s great to know that’s it’s per ROUTE !!

My friends first mewtwo was shiny💀💀

Meloetta can always be obtained... The special research is 1 of the programmed special researches that unlocks when you reach a certain level. I just started an alternate account 3 weeks ago and got that research like around level 10 or 15... Can't exactly remember which level but I got meloetta from it.

Does the Zygarde trick still functioning today?

There was a diff type of pikachu that also changes the music not just the mythaci

I only knew the meloetta one because I got a 4* meloetta and have it as my buddy so I can level 50 it

This is like the third time you’ve made this video 😂

I got shiny eevee and wanted a shiny umbreon but earlier that day i used the umbreon name trick and didnt know u can only do it once😢😢😢

The meloetta has never worked for me. I have known about it but I can't get mine to do it.

at 6:29 when mew was getting registered in your pokedex why ere all the sprites like that or is that how they ere that day?

To the "Mythical Discovery".. I think I'm cursed. Like I play this game for 4 years and I'm stuck on "catch a ditto". Every month I check what can be ditto and catch those but I Just can't find one and I'm hopeless by now..

I actually caught a shiny unone during the sinnoh tour

Thought this was supposed to be a list of things we didn’t know😅

idk why but my meloetta doesnt do the switching bgm stuff

If you got the all in one 151. Like me the last time it came out for shiny mew you can still get the shiny mew

Bro that free pokeballs trick with the daily insense I crazy, I have to go try that

GG for the vid

Yeah i did the name eevee thing aready 😂.

I evolved my eevee hoping for umbreon not got a second julteon I forgot the name trick… 2:10 2:36

@MYSTIC7 you can get 3 master balls, not 2. The 3rd one is from a quest called a little warm up. You don't have it because you have played it every day. I didn't play for 7 months so I got it.

My meloetta doesn't change the mucic

Imagine doing an Easter egg video in 2023 with remedial knowledge

i still didnt finish the 2021 go meloetta fest till now

You need the Eevee trick for level 42 task‼️

I started playing Pokemon Go this month and had that special research to get Melloetta and also got it. Is it re-released or is it a bug that I had the research? xD

My Meloetta from Finding your voice is a hundo

I for the life of me cannot find a ditto and I’ve had two challenges sitting for a year 😭

Actually, pop pikachu and rock pikachu also change the music

You are the reason why I made A KZfaq channel so thank you mystic seven❤

Unknown was my 1st pokemon and its shiny 💀

God vid

“18 secrets you didn’t know”. The first one is literally a quest given to you by the game. How is that a secret lol

How to get a free mewtwo: Reach level 50 Yeah thanks once I reach level 50 I already will have 20 mewtwo‘s

I havent used the zygarde cell exploit at all and 95% of my routes have given me a zygarde cell. Thats just how RNG works if anyone wanted to know

I'm level 41 and I don't get the research is there something i can do? or is it for level 42 or higher

I caught a shiny bulbasour while watching your video

Bro I can't do all this

I've got a shundo one/4* now raichu

Unfortunately, the Eevee evolution name change works only once you’ve completed certain Special Research Tasks. Other than that, as of recent, changing the name of Eevee before evolving them still will randomly generate any of the eight forms.

i have meloweda but it does not have music lol

Bring out Mega Lucario. Please!!!🙏 🙏🙏

My mum got pikchu when she first started its easy to find in the wild anyway

Only one I didn't know about was the 30 free balls from daily incense...
