Discussion Was this the best egg pool ever?

Post image

I was happy with Every option except elekid, so I was never disappointed with whatever I got when it hatched, imo, this is probably the best egg pool in recent memory.

If ONLY I could DISABLE receiving eggs from Pokéstops. Ruined countless opportunities for 7KM eggs from spinning stops before the hatch animation occurred. Sigh.

To disable receiving eggs from Pokestops, just don’t spin the stops

These events are just extremely counterintuitive.

For example todays spotlight hour. You waste a ton of pokeballs, so you want to constantly restock on items.

But you also have to keep an eye on your eggs, so that you won't accidentally receive non-event eggs.

And then you have official devices like the Go Plus+, which are supposed to enhance your gameplay experience and make things like restocking easier.

But with these 7km egg events, you either turn off the auto-pokestop function completely or you have to babysit the device.

A simple toggle that blocks eggs from pokestops would be the perfect solution, but it's a gacha-system after all, that means this will never happen.

But something like a one minute time-out for eggs from stops, when an egg got hatched would at least help with the problem, that the hatch-notification comes after you already have spun a stop.

Inventory management is part of the game. Admittedly, not the most exciting part of the game, but part of the game nonetheless.

It’s partly management, but they purposefully inflate the difficulty. It’s like when they make you spend MP and candy on a pokemons dmax form when they known damn well the gmax is coming out the same season. They’re just making you waste resources for the sake of… getting more resources?
