Your casual nature during GO Fest is inspiring to watch. I lean towards wanting to maximize and try for everything, and it minimizes the fun and social aspect sometimes. So, it’s nice to have a reminder of how much more fun just playing for fun can be! I’m looking forward to taking the family to one of these someday. Thanks again for bringing the event to us!
looks like a ton of fun. global go fest was terrible this year, but unfortunately unless go fest comes to massachusetts ill never make it to an in person go fest event.
The Boston commons is basically the closest we have to an inperson events. There are actually official meetups for community days in the commons actually
@@andrewwojtas8486 yeah I've heard of a couple meetups but I don't live in that area anymore, I'm in the dead center of the state, it's a 2hr drive there so I'd make that for an in person official event sure but not for a community day meetup
Massachusetts player here. We need to get a go fest here in the state. The amount of history and tourism spots is nuts and would be perfect for niantics exploring places ideas. Also good to see fellow mass players here 😄
Looked like so much fun! Cool to see Zyonik, 4TheBattles, and Alfindeol make an appearance as well. These in person events are so worth it. Really looking forward to Seattle
Thank you for taking your time at the meet&greet, it was really nice meeting you and all the other content creators!! I also had a blast, playing around so many mindlike people in such a beautiful garden really made this event special. And now I even made it into one of your videos, I'm more than happy :)
After watching yours and Zoe's video's, it's nice to know Niantic made sure to super boost the spawns for the event you had to spend thousands on to go out and travel too after they made sure to kill the Go Fest every one could participate in. They give us a bunch of crap and former community day spwans, you guys get a bunch of unique pokemon and cool spawns. Very clear to see who Niantic is catering to these days
Yeah it seems like they are catering to content creators. Like any other game these days… I wasn’t mad that I spent $15 on the global ticket until I watched this video. Now I feel extremely cheated. Niantic will no longer get my money for anything 🖕
I just really hope they can do this for the final event of go fest. I enjoyed the global go fest but I felt like I would of been so much more excited if it were to play out like this
I definitely do love that there were certain things that were exclusive to go fest, because I think that is how things should always be for traveling, and for paying the higher price. Cowboy Snorlax is definitely meme worthy in a positive way lol
It was really awesome to meet you irl, been watching your channel for almost 6 years now so I was really nervous but you were really awesome. Even caught a shiny Togetic in line so I am definitely keeping that to remember the day. Love your stuff and stay awesome!✌🏻
I was in Berlin today (saturday) and what a day it was. So many pokemon, great shinys and new friendships. It was simply devine. Locking forward to next year. 🥰
It must be hard having to do TH-cam things like meet n greets when you still have Pokemon tasks to finish! I appreciate that you and the other creators still take the time to do those things even when it means you have to stop playing the game.
I mean they’re sponsored and catered to at these events, I don’t think it’s much to as of them to take some time out to meet fans lol. Any old player would have had to spend hundreds to thousands to attend
Niantic " We want the playing field to be fair and even." Also Niantic "if you can fly and spend money on accommodations, you will get the best and most exclusive spawns in all of the game." Also Niantic "spoofing bad!" #stupidity
Major hype; I recently had a lot of doubts about PoGo as a returning player from '16-'18. I almost threw in the towel but they are hosting awesome events, I really might stick around and give it another chance this summer
Fun video and great quality as always. The sad part is the worldwide go fest should've been this good, even if we'll still get them eventually it still feels unfair cause we also paid for a ticket and didn't get the quality of pokemon and exclusives. I think this difference and how most players in the world will feel would be good material for a video, if you decide to film it a shout out to jelnfd pokemon trainer would be appreciated. Have fun and cheers.
Its so nice to se you all out there having fun and being a group again. I cant imagine how elated you are to get back to things. Its a real pleasure to see you on your journeys!
bro i started watching you back in the first week of pokemon go. i stopped playing pogo and in 2022 i'm so glad you still making vids, i remember you going around with casey. time really flies
I feel so cheated after paying $15 for global fest Grass rotom alone would’ve been awesome to see and would’ve been worth the disappearing incense spawns and low shiny rate we gave our money for
I'm hoping these spawns are what we'll be getting in the third Global Go Fest finale day in August. Don't forget our ticket got us that as well. I REALLY want a sniny cowboy snorlax - did so many raids and caught so many regulars without any luck.
I don’t like niantic pushing in-person events so much. More players would spend money if they could play from their home, and not have to spend thousands for traveling there. Would help niantic profit more and make more players happy if global paid events were better, while still having the in person events available.
Hey I just spent $10k going to Florida last week to finally catch Corsola, lol. Ok, in reallity, I was on vacation. But how else would I have gotten it.
In-person gameplay is the core of the game -- I agree that they could make global events a bit better but at the same time it's important to make enticing in-person events
@@MrZorx75 how many people attend in person events compared with the global player base? I mean it doesn’t look like that many people are even there - so why tailor so much of the game to 1% who can spend the majority of their lives playing Pokémon go? That’s just weird to me
Between the Unown spawns, the other UBs making their lv15 debut, and FREAKING GRASS ROTOM debuting as well, Niantic *really* dropped the ball on this year's Go Fest. These should *all* be available to us if we paid for Go Fest. Enough with this city-exclusive bullcrap.
I feel ripped off and offended, the global go fest is as equally important and its not free, so people do expect and should get the same quality of any other fest. And the fact that niantic and many influencers, that can make a difference, just brush it off is unbelievable. Unown spawning in the wild with good shiny rates, and for us blocked behind a pay wall and one or two spawns. Rotom, they could've also given us one, since we have 4 more to go. All and all niantic continues to be an elitist game, for people with money or jumpers.
I, a German, have been to every previous live GO Fest in Germany, and aside from the technical disasters that happened the first time in Dortmund, it was always so, so much fun! This year, my squad didn't want to go because of the pandemic, and I didn't want to go all on my own. Watching this, I got pretty sad, and I wish I had just gone on my own. Meeting you and the others would have been worth it already, and the vibes from your video make it seem like the whole thing would have been a good experience anyway. Don't know why I doubted it. Hope you're having sunny weather for the rest of it! And I hope I get to see you at the next opportunity!
Go fest in Berlin looks fun! You look so happy playing with your friends ☺️. OMG! You got it!!! Congratulations on your shiny ✨✨✨ Hundo and shiny, how lucky is that 👌🏻. Pheromosa looks sassy, her kick hahaha 😂. Those events are all about the community, seeing all these trainers being happy about the same passion, that's what is the most important thing for me with this game. The Pokestop is amazing, thank you so much for the gift, a beautiful memory 🙏🏻. Great video, keep up the good work, take care Nick ☺️.
Just came home from Go Fest, I was there saturday. It was an absolute blast, the atmosphere was amazing, the weather was really nice, the spawns were mostly very fun, the take over every hour was really a fun feature and the park was a very beautiful place. I had a very good time and finished my day with 68 shinies.
It was great to see you have so much fun with the community, Nick! I’ve seen a lot of negative comments on this video and I don’t want to contribute to the negativity, even though I have a lot of the same thoughts about the global go fest vs. in person events. But I remember when you weren’t having fun with the game and now your energy seems much more invigorated. I wish I could go to the in-person events (no time and no money) but I’m glad you had fun!
Great job Niantic with the "level playing field" event, sucks that the one we all had a month ago wasn't this good. We all know how much Niantic hates it a certain group of players have advantages over other players......maybe I'll lucky and get a Snorlax with a cowboy hat to appear in my Glendale Arizona community soon. Let's not mention the Sky form Shaymin, because Niantic really really hates it when certain people " flexes" their shundos and or shinies.... great job Niantic. Must be nice to have Niantic in your back pocket!
It was freakin Awesome to see the Squad back together !! Living these GoFests vicariously thru ur videos/livestreams was Fun !! Hopefully one day i can go to one 💪
So glad you guys all had a great time! Looks like loads of fun. I do wish global GO Fest had been better, but there SHOULD be a huge difference between what we paid ($15, basically a meal at fast food joint) and the amount those who went to Berlin paid. I hope the other GO Fests you attend are as awesome as this one, and Niantic also makes Global events better for the rest of us. Congrats on that shiny cowboy hat Snorlax! Happy hunting! :)
Yeah…it don’t sit right with me…I get paying for a ticket for global to get some good Pokémon but in order to get these awesome one, we have to travel? I think it’s time to keep my money and maybe download a new game.
Hold up! The organizers couldn't even supply you with an electric outlet to charge your phone, you had to use your own battery pack in YOUR OWN TENT during meet/greet? That is so lame.
I was in Dortmund in 2018 and there were so many people that I completely lost the fun of the event and Pokemon Go. Based on the video, Berlin must have been very relaxed. I'm quite jealous and would have liked to have been there.
I don't see the point of these in-person go fests at all, there are so many things wrong with it - while I did have fun in Chicago, there's no reason each of these fests can't be worldwide. That said, they probably support the local economy but I don't think they're as big a money maker for Niantic as the worldwide fests.
@@jakeberry5428 All of that could be done with a global fest, and even with these go fests, there could be the same game play opened up to the world. During the pandemic, I bought tickets for the Safari Zone Liverpool, Philadelphia, etc. all these cities - I was close to one of them - but it was a world wide event with the option of meeting local and global communities and from the one I went to, it was as successful as anything else. In all cases, I didn't just play at home. I think this current model, especially is an exclusionary practice BTW - the better model was provided during the pandemic and as we've seen with many other features, Niantic has rolled back things that worked (and then undone those after some outcry). I fully understand their bottom line is what matters, and this is what I expect Niantic to do. What I find surprising is that this is the path that improves their bottom line. And no, I don't think Niantic does a single thing with keeping money in mind (and I'm 100% okay with that, not saying it is bad).
I mean I kinda feel like in person Go Fest's should be better than Global Go Fest's. It incentives people to still make the trip out for Go Fest's. No one would care if the Global Go Fest was as good/better as the in person events. Niantic also knows what area you're going to be playing in so they can tailor the in person event to be more unique and exciting compared to a Global Go Fest
Yeah, shouldn’t have to spend thousands on airfare, accommodations and other travel expenses to have a good PoGo experience. Not to mention the time this requires that the average person does not have. I wonder how many of these content creators would be at these events if their trips weren’t paid for. 🤔
Celebi released at Go Fest 2018. Later became worldwide later in the year. Jirachi released at Go Fest 2019. Later became worldwide later in the year. Victini released at the first worldwide Go Fest in 2020 for Ticket Holders only. Later became available to everyone else later in the year. Meloetta (Aria form; Pirouette form has yet to be released in general) released in the worldwide Go Fest 2021 for Ticket Holders only (minus a bug that caused some non-Ticket Holders to have access to the Special Research). Later became available to everyone else later in the year. The same thing will happen to Shaymin for Go Fest 2022. Since both forms have been released (Land form for Ticket Holders for the worldwide Go Fest and Sky form for the in-person Go Fests), they'll likely either add the Form Change button to Shaymin, have both encounterable in 1 Special Research, or have 2 Special Researches and you get the Land form in one and the Sky form in the other.
I think is unfair that Niantic gives exclusive Pokemon for those who pay for it. I know that is the objective for doing events like Go Fest and Safari Zones but not everyone can travel to the other side of the world. I think this is one of the main reasons people do cheat. Hope to go this kind of events once in my life
lol, GO Fest in one sound. I loved the video, glad you had fun, and hope you can finish the research tomorrow! Also, how high does the Rotom get (long long long-term project)?!
Bro why is every event recently look like they put $1000 into the budget and this looks like how I wish events were. This year was my first go fest and I dreamed it would be like this
Looks like a blast ! I want rotom! :(I don’t understand why events such as these can’t be for everyone.… A bit unfair for broke young people with a 9-5 and can’t afford to go out like that for a game event .. lmaooo
I hope we got mystic 7's in the global go fest at least for ticket buyers. It was a bit of a let down but I'm just hoping , praying , and crossing my fingers that us ticket buyers get an insane finale in august
They made global Go fest shit and saved all the good stuff for the in person events. I know the tickets are slightly more expensive but they don't benefit from the 100s/1000s you would have to spend to go and play there. No idea why they have such a hard on for this when there's a global fuel and cost of living crisis.
It's great seeing Billy's, Mystic7s and your video. Gives us different view points. Seeing yall running around in the background and stuff it's so awesome.
Loved GO Fest!!❤️ The rain during the first day wasn't even bothering anyone I think. It was awesome meeting all of you guys and all the other awesome people in the park!💪💪
I played on Saturday with my cousin, we only got 5 and 7 shinies each, but as you said it's just as much about the experience, hanging out, meeting new people from all over the world etc. I think Niantic did a good job with the decorations, loved the eggs and the giant floating Snorlax 😂 The different habitats were fun. This was our first time at an international event. Think I'll have to attend one next year aswell 😁
Gigantimax forms are similar to Megas in that it's a form change for battles only. However, unlike Megas where they get a big boost to move of their stats and most get new typings, Gigantimax forms just give you a lot more HP and your moves change into Max Moves, which do different things depending on what type your move is (some signature Max Moves have added effects as well). It'd be interesting to see how they'd implement it, given all it can do is increased your HP and maybe change your moves to Max Moves (if they add them) temporarily.
Hey Nick wanted to see if you can make a video about Pokemon Go that sums up all the changes i use to play about 4 years ago if you could make a video about how much has changed since then or just breifly discuss it in one video. Ill keep looking through your content but i think it be good as i dont know any of the pokemon now or what to look for watched you since the beginning.
Great video, as always! I really liked seeing the other creators in your video and then you in theirs! I watched yours first btw! You make me feel included somehow, thanks.
Damn, even if only 7 shinies, 2 are Unowns and one Cowboy Snorlax, that's enough to make the day. If it was just more common pokemon, or less special, I would riot.
God damn they did not want Global GO fest to be enjoyable, cause this all looks so much more interesting
The fact that unown were spawning in the wild looks much more interesting. Why do we still give money to Niantic? hahahaha

How can we roast it when its already fire??
Your casual nature during GO Fest is inspiring to watch. I lean towards wanting to maximize and try for everything, and it minimizes the fun and social aspect sometimes. So, it’s nice to have a reminder of how much more fun just playing for fun can be! I’m looking forward to taking the family to one of these someday. Thanks again for bringing the event to us!
looks like a ton of fun. global go fest was terrible this year, but unfortunately unless go fest comes to massachusetts ill never make it to an in person go fest event.

This feels unfair. Globle go fest should have been like this or even better.
Chasing whales is what Niantic does, but it's not economically viable.
100 1000 dollars spenders versus the 100 thousand 1 dollar spenders
Im so jelaous of everyone who could travel for Go Fest😅 Hoping for next year🤞 Gongrats on your Snorlax✨️
There are two more go fests coming this year and a big global go event in august.

That said, they probably support the local economy but I don't think they're as big a money maker for Niantic as the worldwide fests.
Of course not, but the point of these events is the experience, going out there and meeting other communities.
That's the whole point of this game!
@@jakeberry5428 All of that could be done with a global fest, and even with these go fests, there could be the same game play opened up to the world. During the pandemic, I bought tickets for the Safari Zone Liverpool, Philadelphia, etc. all these cities - I was close to one of them - but it was a world wide event with the option of meeting local and global communities and from the one I went to, it was as successful as anything else. In all cases, I didn't just play at home. I think this current model, especially is an exclusionary practice BTW - the better model was provided during the pandemic and as we've seen with many other features, Niantic has rolled back things that worked (and then undone those after some outcry).
I fully understand their bottom line is what matters, and this is what I expect Niantic to do. What I find surprising is that this is the path that improves their bottom line. And no, I don't think Niantic does a single thing with keeping money in mind (and I'm 100% okay with that, not saying it is bad).
Global go fest was a scam compared to this 🤦♂️😂 didn’t expect to get bunch of likes on this 🥶
Part 2 hasn't happened yet
I mean I kinda feel like in person Go Fest's should be better than Global Go Fest's. It incentives people to still make the trip out for Go Fest's. No one would care if the Global Go Fest was as good/better as the in person events. Niantic also knows what area you're going to be playing in so they can tailor the in person event to be more unique and exciting compared to a Global Go Fest
@@charlesw7397 it shouldn’t have this big of a difference.
Yeah, shouldn’t have to spend thousands on airfare, accommodations and other travel expenses to have a good PoGo experience. Not to mention the time this requires that the average person does not have. I wonder how many of these content creators would be at these events if their trips weren’t paid for. 🤔
I mean this is glorified PR for Niantic.They bring all the content creators here on their own dime to promote an amazing Pokémon Go experience to you.
Dude i hope shaymin is obtainable later, I love that sky form and it's annoying asf that it's locked behind being in Berlin 🙍🏽♂️
Celebi released at Go Fest 2018. Later became worldwide later in the year.
Jirachi released at Go Fest 2019. Later became worldwide later in the year.
Victini released at the first worldwide Go Fest in 2020 for Ticket Holders only. Later became available to everyone else later in the year.
Meloetta (Aria form; Pirouette form has yet to be released in general) released in the worldwide Go Fest 2021 for Ticket Holders only (minus a bug that caused some non-Ticket Holders to have access to the Special Research). Later became available to everyone else later in the year.
The same thing will happen to Shaymin for Go Fest 2022. Since both forms have been released (Land form for Ticket Holders for the worldwide Go Fest and Sky form for the in-person Go Fests), they'll likely either add the Form Change button to Shaymin, have both encounterable in 1 Special Research, or have 2 Special Researches and you get the Land form in one and the Sky form in the other.
I think is unfair that Niantic gives exclusive Pokemon for those who pay for it. I know that is the objective for doing events like Go Fest and Safari Zones but not everyone can travel to the other side of the world. I think this is one of the main reasons people do cheat. Hope to go this kind of events once in my life
The thing is we paid for a global event that was an absolute rip off
Um, if everyone gets something, that thing is no longer exclusive. Just sayin. :)
@@whiterabbit6341 not everyone got that exclusive Pokemon lol. Just saying
@@gaspardavid2608 yes but everyone will eventually, they literally always do. Has been the case since 2017
Pheromonsa I was able to catch on pokefest finale for free without ticket so maybe glitch or ???
lol, GO Fest in one sound. I loved the video, glad you had fun, and hope you can finish the research tomorrow! Also, how high does the Rotom get (long long long-term project)?!
Bro why is every event recently look like they put $1000 into the budget and this looks like how I wish events were. This year was my first go fest and I dreamed it would be like this
Totally jealous of the Snorlax!!!
Thanks for the Maractus Nick! Glad you were able to get that big boi at last 🥳
Looks like a blast ! I want rotom! :(I don’t understand why events such as these can’t be for everyone.… A bit unfair for broke young people with a 9-5 and can’t afford to go out like that for a game event .. lmaooo
My thoughts exactly. But it’s ok Pokémon go makes it fair for everyone 🤔
Great video! looked a ton of fun, definitely would love to go to a Go fest at some point. Good to see the squad all together
I hope we got mystic 7's in the global go fest at least for ticket buyers. It was a bit of a let down but I'm just hoping , praying , and crossing my fingers that us ticket buyers get an insane finale in august
They made global Go fest shit and saved all the good stuff for the in person events.
I know the tickets are slightly more expensive but they don't benefit from the 100s/1000s you would have to spend to go and play there.
No idea why they have such a hard on for this when there's a global fuel and cost of living crisis.
Because since when have peasants mattered?
That Rotom reaches exactly 2500 cp at level 43,5 (so bit xl needed)
another event that niantic don't want all their players to enjoy, NICE
Been like this since 2017, cry
@@jakeberry5428 stop liking your own comments.
You're just a bully
It's great seeing Billy's, Mystic7s and your video. Gives us different view points. Seeing yall running around in the background and stuff it's so awesome.
So excited for seattle!!! Cool transition with the rain cover and congrats on the snorlax!!!
I love your calm demeanor and your knowledge of Pokémon. You sir got a new follower
Loved GO Fest!!❤️ The rain during the first day wasn't even bothering anyone I think. It was awesome meeting all of you guys and all the other awesome people in the park!💪💪
I played on Saturday with my cousin, we only got 5 and 7 shinies each, but as you said it's just as much about the experience, hanging out, meeting new people from all over the world etc. I think Niantic did a good job with the decorations, loved the eggs and the giant floating Snorlax 😂 The different habitats were fun. This was our first time at an international event. Think I'll have to attend one next year aswell 😁
Sandshrew drawing was actually really well-done
So glad you had so much fun! Wish I could have been there.
That sandshrew drawing was actually good lol
With the good amount of Snorlax, I hope and wonder about Gmax as a way to provide new raid types and "Megas".
Gigantimax forms are similar to Megas in that it's a form change for battles only. However, unlike Megas where they get a big boost to move of their stats and most get new typings, Gigantimax forms just give you a lot more HP and your moves change into Max Moves, which do different things depending on what type your move is (some signature Max Moves have added effects as well).
It'd be interesting to see how they'd implement it, given all it can do is increased your HP and maybe change your moves to Max Moves (if they add them) temporarily.
Amazing video Nick! ^_^ Thanks for showing us what was happening over there.
Kricket is too funny, this was a very happy video. Im happy for you Nick and everyone on the squad. OG Pokemon Go vloggers 💯
Looked really fun! Did you see JT Valor?
Hey Nick wanted to see if you can make a video about Pokemon Go that sums up all the changes i use to play about 4 years ago if you could make a video about how much has changed since then or just breifly discuss it in one video. Ill keep looking through your content but i think it be good as i dont know any of the pokemon now or what to look for watched you since the beginning.
0:35 I guess you could say he took the L...
Why do I hear crickets?
You've come a long way from losing your mind and yelling at a pile of Snorlax plushies while doing Snorlax raids 😅
Aww love to see all the squad.
15:33
Nah they're probably gonna replace Premier Balls when making a Worm Hole Raid
thank you for sharing these days
Great video, as always! I really liked seeing the other creators in your video and then you in theirs! I watched yours first btw! You make me feel included somehow, thanks.
Looks like so much fun. Can't wait for Seattle!
Damn, even if only 7 shinies, 2 are Unowns and one Cowboy Snorlax, that's enough to make the day. If it was just more common pokemon, or less special, I would riot.
The search for the Snorlax reminds me of him looking for the Shiny Lapras
IYKYK
As someone who doesn't shiny hunt I'm always happy when I hear I have one he doesn't
Love all the cameos! It did look like a fun event!
at 5;35 how did the Heracross hit the Pokeball back for a second throw??
brandon zooming past yelling 😂
oh no!!! Kriket is now check the butts of Nick's shinies!!! lmao
The face on a pokestop is such a flex
