Can’t use egg incubator or shop

Great game but can’t do these as of a few days ago. Please fix!

This game sucks

Like bro the GPS drift is stupid. If you’re stuck at a school for sports or something during an event then you are just cooked. The game is way too hard and honestly I’m sick of missing things.

P2w trash

A 300 cp torchic will take 6 ultra balls to catch!!!!!! FIX YOUR CATCH RATES!!!!
No it’s not 4 star it’s barely a 1 star Pokemon this is ridiculous.

CIA MAPPING APP!!

This app is being used by the CIA to create 3D models of the world so they can plan attacks more accurately globally. The CEO of this app doesn’t care one bit about the game and only created Pokémon GO so the players could be his little mice and do his architectural scanning and mapping for him and the government. Do your own research and wake up!!

I lost my account

Help how do I get it back I don’t remember my password

Predatory Tracking

i don’t want to enable adventure sync!!! why does your app keep forcing my phone to switch and force open my settings app without my permission? you don’t NEED to track anything while I’m not playing.

Catch rates

Excellent throws should guarantee you the catch. Absolutely no reason for anyone to hit more than half of their throws as excellent and still not catch the Pokemon. Players should be rewarded for learning the mechanics of the game, not punished by random chance. Multiple raid bosses fled because of this. Please address this issue

Fix gift limit

Make a higher gift limit. You should probably consider adding a send all or open all button for gifts.

Great game

It’s a great game for family bonding and walking for fun

Really good game

This game is by far the best Pokémon game
I’ve played. I love the fact that you can catch your favorite Pokémon as well as mega evolve them. One thing that I wish this game had was an easier way to get candy for kanto starters. It could be in not only the go pass but also the hot air balloon. PS: I also think that there should be a “gym that spawns with a legendary Pokemon but if you win there’s a chance to catch it. The spawn rate would be pretty rare though and so would the chance to catch the Pokémon but it would be cool and would bring a new way to get legendary Pokemon with.

Black screen

Get black screen after title page. Cannot move past to report an issue. Nowhere on website to submit issue.

Recent update

After the recent update, the app starts on a black screen and doesn’t do anything after.

Best game show it to you’re kids

Kids and adults play this game I like going to raids and collecting Pokémon from research this game is still fun after 6 years my father had this game after I saw it I told him what is this game? He used to catch good stuff so 5 stars for fhis game taking care of me

The best Pokémon game EVER

No doubt. This is the best. Pokémon game I’ve ever played and I don’t know what they’re saying about. I got my gender wrong because that’s kind of their fault. So yeah that’s the best game ever. And I love the idea of just walk around, but it’s also a screen game, so yeah.

The best!!!!!!!!!!!

Best Pokémon game yet!!!!!!!

New dodge systems and ptw

I’ve been playing pokémon go for around 6+ years and i have enjoyed it, however this new dodge system is crazy. It’s taking around 4 balls per pokémon which should normally only cost 1. It’s a pay to win idea with them obviously wanting you to buy more pokeball, which for rural players like myself makes things much more frustrating. I’ve also been remote raiding like crazy, (all i can do to get good mons due to being rural) purchased $100 worth of coins. About 75 raids later NOT A SINGLE SHINY! that’s just ridiculous. It’s 100% pay to win, if your new and deciding that’s the path you want to go with then go for it, however i’m getting quite annoyed with it.
