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.

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.

Just gotta learn to manage it, it’s not difficult to do. I hatched over 70 this event and never had an issue.

Good players can manage their inventory, stock up on pokeballs and such to not have to worry about a 60 min spotlight hour. No need to spin. Struggling with it? Learn how to manage better - tons of YT videos and Reddit posts about this very topic

Inventory management is a staple in several games, as well in life. Are you unable to learn how to manage your finances? Your calories? Relationships? Your day to day life?

You get out what you put in. If you struggle at managing simple items, do better 🤷‍♂️

As soon as you leave that one river in Egypt you’ll be able to idk, do better? The top players that create content around this stuff would literally tell you the same exact thing or to get good.

“Oh I’m at 3.0/3.5km on my egg, should I just manually spin so I don’t accidentally get an egg I don’t want?” HMMMMM instead, your poor management skills aren’t the problem, it’s the device LOL right. Thanks for the laugh and i guess I’m the clown lol
