I was thinking they might do that for easter or make them give x3 or x4 exp since it'd be egg related. But that sounds like it might be a better idea for st. Patricks
As much as I think you have the best of intentions Nick, I do have to question your statement on Ghost in the Shell. I think you should just take it as is. A westernized version of the Japanese movie. A quick google search and you will see that in asian cultures remake american movies too, and yes... they cast asian actors. Examples; "Unforgiven" "Ghost" "Dangerous Liaisons" "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" "Sideways" "What Women Want" I would think that Americans pride themselves on being multicultural. And from what I see in the cast list, it's an array of different cultures, I see Danish, Japanese, and Fijian/Australian at a quick glance. The ratio of Japanese/Asian actors is quite high as well. While I don't dismiss the fact that there may be an issue with representation in America, this is not the right movie to project those concerns onto. Because it clearly isn't true in this circumstance.
hey Nick just tweeted you a picture... but so far 4 Sunstone, 3 Metal Coat, 1 Dragon Scale and 2 Update. Mostly all from a Starbucks Pokestop since Gen2 launch.
Nice touch on editing @ 2:44. I've watched your channel on Pokémon Go since your day 1 footage was uploaded and it's kept the game alive for a lot of people that I know in CA. Keep it up!
Nick, if you ever don't have time to do an actual day of shooting, you could upload a blooper reel if you happen to save old unused footage. Just an idea!
HI Nick... I have enjoyed watching your VLOG for months. Thank you for your efforts. I have been noticing that my kids and I have collected most of evolution items from shopping malls. There is a mall near us with 16 stops. We go there most days and get some exercise by walking( its 1 KM to go completely around; we walk around twice). Both my kids have collected 6 or 7 evolution items each from the mall.. I have not been as lucky but also have collected almost all my evolution items from the mall. I spin alot of stops of day ( easily close to 100 ) from various parks and malls... almost all our evolution items have come from there.
tbf, about the Ghost In The Shell comment, it's very rare that anime character look remotely Asian, they don't go for it, infact it is often European, namely german for studio Ghibli. If anything, Scarlett Johansson looks quite similar to her, with her facial structure, her face going more than most toward the thin chin, eye's and mouth etc, she's best A list actor for the job imo
Jim A don't give up on Dragonite. As per Nick's previous video, Dratini have become the most common 10km egg hatches now. As long as you're picking up more 10km eggs, I think you'll be seeing Dragonite sooner than later.
I LOVE Nick´s vids, editing style, & how his comments can spark a conversation. We should talk about it with an open mind. :-) As someone who's basically an average white American female, I've never understood why we don't have more diversity in leading acting roles. I would happily pay to see that. There's plenty of talented & attractive Asians that could fill these roles. (for example, Ryan Higa) Although, I feel that since Ghost in the Shell appeals to a niche market, they were trying to use Johansson to appeal to a wider audience. ...I just want a live action anime movie that isn't poop. Thanks for understanding!
Nick, I realized ur the one who's mainly keeping go in my day to day life. I want to thank you for all of the hard work you make on these videos and for all of your fans who still love go!
This is going to sound stupid, but there should be a pokemon go event that incorporates a more interactive vibe. I thought it was funny when nick picked up that card, I thought of something... It would be really cool if rather than hunting on your phone as per usual, trainers could hunt for pokemon cards. For example, just as Nick checked if there was a Rhydon when he found the card, maybe Niantic could hide say a donphan card in a tree and the three teams(yellow, red and blue) can split and search for the card. Then there could be a way for that pokemon to appear on their phone- a simple idea could be just to enter a code listed on the card that you could enter into your phone (which should only be able to work for people who registered for the event and should have a specific time slot so that players outside the event can't access it). I think this would be awesome because it could be a way to promote trainers to stare at their phone less which is what Niantic wants and it seems cool to make a pokemon appear that you wouldnt originally see by just staring at your phone. Yes, this idea has some flaws but Niantic could fix it up and incorporate some cool 90s swag with the cards. Prizes could even be 90s exclusive pokemon merchandise! P.S. CLUES SHOULD BE INCLUDED to find the pokemon so that trainers arent left just as helpless as trainers are searching for a pokemon the normal way on pokemon go ;')
Bani Badwal I think this is a great idea, could be an Easter time event. instead of hinting for eggs, hunting for poke cards! Niantic could have a rep in each capital/large City for a week, for Easter, and maybe have the hard to get Pokemon or even legendary (maybe) as a prize for the team.
Nick I just wanted to say that shot at 2:40 was absolutely great. I know alot of people on here is talking about it but I just wanted to say it gave me goosebumps watching it. From the angle to the editing. It was super simple but yet so much skills and work went into that 30 seconds of the video. Great job once again. Your skills get better every time. #Exit8BitBeads
Hey man, I don't know if you've done it before, but I really like the way you sped up the scene outside the restaurant (and your reflection), but not inside. Also love your videos in general. Best regards from a fan in Belgium!
Get a portable floor AC unit that vents out your window for the apartment. They work really well and can easily cool down the whole apartment and not use too much electric. Easy and relatively cheap option.
I like how at 3:00 The inside of the shop is at regular speed while the outside of the shop is a time lapse but if you look at the window's reflection you can see Nick in a time lapse while inside he's at regular speed at the same time as his reflection
people go to japan and ask what they think of scarlet johanson playing the major and the vast majority says she looks like the major. come to america and ask a bunch of people in LA and they scream we got to protest this.. yep seems rational.
Because in Japan, they are homogeneous and the dominant race. They don't know about racism in America because most of them have never been there, and their only experience of the US is from TV.
Eric P - I'm going to call this White-xplaining! It's when you have to sit someone down to explain to them why they should be offended by something a white person is doing even though it does not offend them at the moment!
Yeah, it now gives thirty seconds of priority to the person who defeats the Gym. However if you take more than thirty then it is open to the world and can be sniped.
Nicolas Faust. It takes less in this update. Yesterday a gym I took down got sniped immediately after the the game showed me how much prestige it lost. I didn't even manage to open the pokemon storage.
difbufs no it isnt a US thing only i was in holiday in Valencia,Spain about a month ago and my hotel was next to a shopping center there were a lot of sponsored pokestops starbucks etc
difbufs it is not a US only thing. However there may be way more of them in the US because we have them at like every Starbucks and several phone service carriers.
Can we just take the time to appreciate the shot at 2:45 where Nick speeds up only the window scene, syncs 6 catches and makes it look pretty? So much going on.
From watching the latest videos I can say that you are exceeding yourself in every video and improving your editing skills (like in this video, by the 3 minute mark), so keep it going Nick!
Ghost in the Shell - As a old school fan of Anime (Since 1992) I feel I'm qualified to comment on Nicks remarks! They are wrong (In my opinion)! Do white cos-players get accused of dressing in Yellow face? Is dubbed Anime considered Americanized by Asians? Are Asians unconformable seeing hordes of white kids dressed up as Asian cartoon characters? NO! Why? Because 99% of Japanese Anime characters do not look Asian (Hear me out!)! You can say its just the style of Animation but that same style depicts businessmen & the elderly as predominately Asian looking! If you look at the facial features, height, build, eye color, hair color, & attitude of these characters you would be hard pressed to find a real life Asian counterpart who wasn't cos-playing (Not counting school girls/boys)! If your an American fan of Anime chances are a none Asian did the voice over! Does this take away from the quality of the product? I don't think so! (Example - Goko's annoying raspy voice in none dubbed DBZ compared to the American Dub!) Further more I don't believe this takes away work from Asians nor do I believe it belittles there culture! Actually I think it does the opposite! I think it generates interest in Anime & in Asian culture! Why would ANYONE who is a fan of Anime & Ghost in the Shell boycott this movie over a actor? It doesn't help at all! I can't believe this movie even got made! It gives me hope that if its good enough they might make a Akira (My favorite Anime of all time) movie! If they do I don't care who they cast as long as they look the part & are good at their job! I don't think the casting of none Asian actors is a assault or a example of white washed Hollywood! I guess my bottom line is if your going boycott this movie over a actor your closed minded because they are NEVER going to remake it with a Asian lead role! Your missing out on something that could be AWESOME because you cant get over your own bigotry! That's no way to go through life & its a close minded philosophy! P.S. One of these days you have to get over David Carradine getting the role in KUNG FU over Bruce Lee! Isn't the way he died punishment enough! LET IT GO!!!
What do you think about having only one species of Pokémon per gym? So no multiple Blissey or Multiple anything. Would make a tier 10 gym a lot more diverse.
No one seems to care you picking your headset up by the cord. Made me cringe thinking about it pulling loose on the inside. I think I'm the only one who treats my tech like Faberge eggs
TwistedFire85 i dont worry about them so much now becouse they dont make them like they used to unless there the over priced ones wich i just wont touch with kids around or even teenagers who keep lossing there's and then killing mine . why they dont make headsets like they used to that did take a beating is beyond me
Idk. I treat all electronics and tech with extreme care. I buy high end quality stuff and don't want to break them by being careless or not gentle with it
The effect with the window at the beginning was excellent. While Trainer Tips is one of the best resources for info on Pokemon Go, I also think it's about a very successful videographer in the early stages of his career.
Hey Nick, great channel. I'm UK player who usually plays week days on commute about an hour fast walking and no stopping and have collected 4 metal coats, 3 sun stones, 1 upgrade and 1 kings rock. Maybe UK more item friendly.
Damn Nick, you are killing it on your editing and sic shots. The intro blew my mind! WOW, Impressive. I'm getting burnt on Pokemon Go but I will continue to follow your evolving artform. Respect my brother from another mother. I am old enough to be your father.....
Seriously Nick, you're complaining about Ghost in the Shell? The character from the anime doesn't look Japanese either, I mean she's a purple-haired android with pale ass skin. Also the Japanese loved the choice of casting Scarlet Johansson. We are the only ones complaining about it.
Interesting selective racism you got there for a character of a Japanese anime that in concept is originally portrayed as Caucasian... Shame on you. Very disappointed with that comment "Does she look like she's Japanese?". Scarlett Johansson is as Japanese as the films character Major Kusanagi is. If you actually were a fan of the original anime... then you would know that the characters race is intentionally ambiguous.
Nick, could you please tell us how long the gym is locked down for before someone else can put something in from another team. Or get someone to work it out with from another team. That would be awesome.
Okay, stepping in on that ScarJo Kusanagi comment. In the original Ghost in the Shell, Kusanagi is an android and not only that, the world wasn't set in Japan. I felt like that comment way off the point and didn't really need to be in the video, imo. Love your content on PoGO but please, don't make rash comments on anime adaptations.
UltraTom -- Really? I've never read the manga, but from the anime I thought the Public Security Section 9 was based in Japan and under the Japanese government.
+UltraTom Tom, Tommy, tommyboy, You might wanna read some wikipedia or watch the anime or even read the manga before commenting. Motoko is a cyborg, not an android. The manga/anime is set in a cyberpunk future in fictional Japanese city. Love your face but please do not make comments you are unsure of.
I work next door to a sponsored poke-stop, a Starbucks, I spin the stop all day with my GoPlus and have yet to get any evolution items from it. I spin it consistently 4-5 days a week
+trnrtips i got 4 daysoff so i used them to do some research. each day i walked approximately 7 miles but i had about 20 pokestops that i could spin in about a 1/2 mile stretch. i walked back and forth spinning the pokestops over and over again. took me about 5 to 7 hours. First day i got a sunstone 2nd day a kings rock 3 day a metal coat. 4th day i went to adiff town with 9 pokestops did the same thing and got an upgrade. if u have the time maybe try this out. pick out some pokestops and spin them for a few hours. seemed to work for me.
The Ghost in the Shell thing is getting old. The body shes in wasn't a human asian body. Generic, not reflective of her as a person whatsoever. Why not address the real issue. That you cannot cast an unknown Asian in a high budget blockbuster. Or rather Hollywood thinks you can't. Instead of not supporting a major adaptation of an anime. I'd like to see this become more normal. More adaptations of anime and manga. You have to support it when you see it. So instead of being racist and whining that there's a white person playing a raceless cyborg in a movie made in a country with a majority white population, I'll be supporting adaptations of anime projects by major film companies. Not that you(Nick) are being racist or whining. Most of the people talking about this film are tho.
I dnt think it's just nick, bentimm1 videos has been ''Garbo'' lately, mystic keeps talking about niantic and the pokemon go youtube community and ali a just a clickstabater. Must be hard to be a pokemon go youtube creator and come up with fresh ideas for a stagnant game.
Xenon Lights He judged the movie because asians are consistently underrepresented in the film industry, even when it comes to movies of the own culture. It's a valid complaint.
There is no right race for a character that is depicted as being ambiguous with her own race.. The character Major Kusanagi in the original anime only has a Japanese name. The character is visually depicted as being Caucasian.
"Does she look like she's Japanese?" "No." *Nickcondescendingly rolls his eyes* >Jeez, that's a bit close-minded of you Nick....wasn't it you that said something about 'not believing in borders, and all of us living together as one'? You know, it sounds like you're just as committed to the idea of borders and cultural distinctions as those who you criticize. Amirite?
The problem Nick has is that white people dominate movie culture and that when a successful movie with a Japanese lead gets a chance to hit major movie screens and they cast a white superstar to play her, it just excludes Japanese people further.
nick you need to be more open-minded. you always advocate for open-mindedness, then yougo and be closed minded. live by example or your words becoming meaningless
My dad got a kings rock from a sprint pokestop. He has 4 evolutionary items and I only have 1. The one I got was on my 7th day streak when gen 2 first released and I haven't seen one since... We went to a big Onix nest yesterday and my dad picked up another kings rock. We didn't find any metal coats. There were 3 of us and we spun about 30 pokestops each.
sorry Scarlett Johansson is white =/ I guess race matters a lot to Trainer Tips and he wont spend money on something if he decides somebody is the wrong color.
Maybe there is not a ton of Japanese female actresses that wanted to play this roll, and if that is the case is that the fault of the producer/creator and every one else who worked on this film? Probably not a lot of women even wanted this roll due to the bodysuit and short hair and stunts involved, so they picked the best of what they got and it was Scarlett Johansson. She actually wanted the roll, and it's neat there are people in Hollywood that are nerdy in the same way I am.
Yeah, I thought about that, too. I personally would have liked to see Rinko Kikuchi do the role but it's possible a lot of people might not have wanted it just because of the bodysuit thing.
I don't care about the race of the person playing the roll, as long they enjoy and want that roll. If Halle Berry had come out and said she was a huge fan of the anime and really wanted to play the Major I would be stoked to see her do it, ex Bond girl and Catwoman, I think she would be great if I didn't just google her to get the correct name spelling and found out she is 50.
If you want to see lots of asians in movies, go watch some asian movies. Lot's of good korean horrors I've been watching on netflix. In America, there are mostly Americans. So naturally, there will be more american actors. Same thing in other countries.
Why does he have such a problem with it just because she's not Japanese? Maybe she was just a really good choice for the role skill-wise. You're a great guy, but try to be a little more open-minded to both sides of a situation.
Ricky lee He's already offended a lot of wrong people lol. Most of the time, people were just overreacting and taking it the wrong way, but this time, what he said wasn't exactly excusable, unless he can explain that he meant something different or something.
That's like bitching about Jack Nicholson, Leo etc. weren't Japanese in the Departed movie. Or actors in The Ring movie. Just cuz a movie is made for North American FIRST vs Japan, some reason it's a race thing. If GitS live action was done in Japan first, no one would give a shit.
MAAAAAN! That sequence of you two eating at the restaurant at regular speed with the time lapse outside of the window and the multiple catches was AWSOME! (To me at least 😅)
Nick you hypocrite. You say that other people who have gotten lots of evolution items from sponsored poke stops have too small of a sample size. Right off the bat you spin two and claim hat is evidence that their claims are not valid!
He's actually doing it the proper way. Nick is saying you need more proof before you can make the claim that sponsereds are better. Then he asks for more people to tweet there experiences
+Daniel Truong +Steven is cats Are you high or just stupid? When you have a user base of millions and less than maybe 1000 users saying that they got more items from sponsored poke stops, Logic dictates that those 1000 users are too small a size to draw any conclusive evidence. And him spinning just 2 poke stops will not affect that conclusion
Neither. I did not say I agree with the few users who claim that sponsored poke stops give more evolution items. My point was that he's using the logic he's trying to disprove.
+Daniel Truong Huh...what ? What are you trying to say ? When Nick spun those two poke stops, he was already saying that that claim was too small to draw any useful conclusions. The results from those two poke stops, did not alter nor confirm anything as spinning two poke stops is also too small a number to confirm anything. After which, he did ask for more input on the matter via twitter.
James Owens No, because he was insinuating that if the actor was a different race he'd watch it, but as she's currently 'white' he's not going to watch it. Who cares about the actors race? Let the best actor for that role play the character
You don't know what racism is...you can't be racist to white people lol Also saying 'who cares about race' is a very harmful argument, for example, when black people are killed by police in the US because they are black. Race and labels matter.
I just wanted to reply to your inquiry about the Evolution Items and Sponsored poke stops. I have gotten so far 1 upgrade, 6 metal coat, 3 kings rock, 5 sun stone, and 3 dragon scales. Not a single one came out of a sponsored stop if that helps your data at all.
"Ayy bruh I know this kid aint jus swipe my Gym! I aint goin home till I rek all his Pokemon!!!" Spammin that attack button until it goes down. Facial reaction was gold. Best part of that whole vid. Big ups Nick. Made my day bruh.
Am I the only one that noticed that when nick and Cassie were eating lunch that the reflection on the window was a time lapse of them eating but the actual video of them eating was in real time? That's some crazy stuff there nick lol
I got a bunch of sun stone and kings rock from what I think is probably the same stop near my apartment, when that stuff just came out... but I'm not exactly sure which one it was...
Hey... Happy 200 episodes 👍😊! I got no evolutionary items since the launch of Gen 2. Beautiful editing when you are eating 👍it's smooth and nice. I agree with you on the movie, wrong choice of actress. Have a good weekend, relax and have so fun at the same time 😀. Great video as always keep up the good work 😊.
I'm just glad we're having the conversation.
Trainer Tips Scarlett Johansen as Motoko Kusanagi in Ghost in the Shell is fine.
:D
Scarlet is a babe tho
The trailer actually seems like they managed to capture the visual style quite well
Just be glad they are giving it a proper budget..
That editing at 3:05 is sick! You can also see Nick eating super fast in the window.
Mintz loool
lol Nick's shadow form is beasting out on food
Mintz wooooooooooow you got 70 likes that's higher than my gpa
Mintz that was a fantastic edit
Was going to same the same thing. Nice editing Nick!
Your editing is getting pretty damn good Nick... :)
George Payne yes, totally agree.
Loved the time-lapse split with real-time in the Thai restaurant
George Payne 3:05 reflection on the window haha. it's a great video as always but... gotcha Nick!
Diego Pomachagua pretty sure he left it in on purpose it's too obvious not to be able to tell lol
Karla Garcia yeah ik. I don't know anything about editing. But I'd find it pretty hard to get rid of that reflection. I just found it funny.
For st. Patrick's day, niantic should make rare Pokemon more common, making us feel lucky
Mewing_mew 419 + Got the St Patrick's day event details on my TH-cam Channel
+Shaun_ Limit3d No you don't. At best, you have speculation.
For St. Patrick's day, Niantic should make LUCKY eggs last for extra long.
But only for a WEE Time!
I guess internet explorer plays Pokémon go...
Or they should just make all green type Pokemon give 4x Stardust.
Internet Explorer leprechaun Pikachu confirmed
I was thinking they might do that for easter or make them give x3 or x4 exp since it'd be egg related. But that sounds like it might be a better idea for st. Patricks
As much as I think you have the best of intentions Nick, I do have to question your statement on Ghost in the Shell.
I think you should just take it as is. A westernized version of the Japanese movie.
A quick google search and you will see that in asian cultures remake american movies too, and yes... they cast asian actors.
Examples; "Unforgiven" "Ghost" "Dangerous Liaisons" "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" "Sideways" "What Women Want"
I would think that Americans pride themselves on being multicultural. And from what I see in the cast list, it's an array of different cultures, I see Danish, Japanese, and Fijian/Australian at a quick glance. The ratio of Japanese/Asian actors is quite high as well.
While I don't dismiss the fact that there may be an issue with representation in America, this is not the right movie to project those concerns onto. Because it clearly isn't true in this circumstance.
The editing at the restaurant. AMAZING!!
2:40 amazing nick. you get better every edition you do. i really wasn't expecting something like this. simply amazing
hey Nick just tweeted you a picture... but so far 4 Sunstone, 3 Metal Coat, 1 Dragon Scale and 2 Update. Mostly all from a Starbucks Pokestop since Gen2 launch.
The picture shows one less Sunstone but didn't realize just got another one just now.
Ronald Gomes Hate to be "that guy" but its upgrade not update
Paul no worries. I own up to my mistake.
Nice touch on editing @ 2:44. I've watched your channel on Pokémon Go since your day 1 footage was uploaded and it's kept the game alive for a lot of people that I know in CA. Keep it up!
Nick, if you ever don't have time to do an actual day of shooting, you could upload a blooper reel if you happen to save old unused footage. Just an idea!
HI Nick... I have enjoyed watching your VLOG for months. Thank you for your efforts.
I have been noticing that my kids and I have collected most of evolution items from shopping malls. There is a mall near us with 16 stops. We go there most days and get some exercise by walking( its 1 KM to go completely around; we walk around twice). Both my kids have collected 6 or 7 evolution items each from the mall.. I have not been as lucky but also have collected almost all my evolution items from the mall. I spin alot of stops of day ( easily close to 100 ) from various parks and malls... almost all our evolution items have come from there.
look at 2:43 his image in nearby glass is moving very fastly but not he himself.... little weird right?!
Utsav Singh o yea wtf lol
Utsav Singh iii
Utsav Singh that was some good editing wasn't it
Utsav Singh *Cue X-Files music*
tbf, about the Ghost In The Shell comment, it's very rare that anime character look remotely Asian, they don't go for it, infact it is often European, namely german for studio Ghibli.

im level 30 and have yet to even SEE a dratini or snorlax ...so sad
Courtney I'm level 26 and I don't have a Snorlax... but I do have two Dragonites :) I caught one yesterday
Courtney To get a dratini I recommend water areas. They tend to spawn most often in places where magikarp, slowpoke and psyduck are common.
Yup, almost lvl 33, still haven't seen a single Dratini, only hatched one. I've pretty much given up on Dragonite.
Jim A don't give up on Dragonite. As per Nick's previous video, Dratini have become the most common 10km egg hatches now. As long as you're picking up more 10km eggs, I think you'll be seeing Dragonite sooner than later.
thank you this gave me some hope :D Im level 30 and have 31 Dratini candies soo..still waiting for that Dragonite
Nick, that combination shot with the time-lapse in the window was AMAZING.
I LOVE Nick´s vids, editing style, & how his comments can spark a conversation.
We should talk about it with an open mind. :-)
As someone who's basically an average white American female, I've never understood why we don't have more diversity in leading acting roles.
I would happily pay to see that. There's plenty of talented & attractive Asians that could fill these roles. (for example, Ryan Higa)
Although, I feel that since Ghost in the Shell appeals to a niche market, they were trying to use Johansson to appeal to a wider audience.
...I just want a live action anime movie that isn't poop.
Thanks for understanding!
o0Avalon0o Japanese creator of GINTS approved Scar Jo in an interview as well as many Tokio citizens. The anime doesn't belong to Asian Americans
Nick, I realized ur the one who's mainly keeping go in my day to day life. I want to thank you for all of the hard work you make on these videos and for all of your fans who still love go!
This is going to sound stupid, but there should be a pokemon go event that incorporates a more interactive vibe. I thought it was funny when nick picked up that card, I thought of something... It would be really cool if rather than hunting on your phone as per usual, trainers could hunt for pokemon cards. For example, just as Nick checked if there was a Rhydon when he found the card, maybe Niantic could hide say a donphan card in a tree and the three teams(yellow, red and blue) can split and search for the card.

Yes, this idea has some flaws but Niantic could fix it up and incorporate some cool 90s swag with the cards. Prizes could even be 90s exclusive pokemon merchandise!
P.S. CLUES SHOULD BE INCLUDED to find the pokemon so that trainers arent left just as helpless as trainers are searching for a pokemon the normal way on pokemon go ;')
there are many words that you can use to insult someone- the r word is not one of them...
xRevPlays 😂😂😂😂yes! get em!😂😂😂😂
Bani Badwal I think this is a great idea, could be an Easter time event. instead of hinting for eggs, hunting for poke cards! Niantic could have a rep in each capital/large City for a week, for Easter, and maybe have the hard to get Pokemon or even legendary (maybe) as a prize for the team.
Nick I just wanted to say that shot at 2:40 was absolutely great. I know alot of people on here is talking about it but I just wanted to say it gave me goosebumps watching it.

ironic that the gym was named human vulture and the fat dude sniped it when you werent looking
yes, human vulture indeed!
Hey man, I don't know if you've done it before, but I really like the way you sped up the scene outside the restaurant (and your reflection), but not inside.
Also love your videos in general.
Best regards from a fan in Belgium!
I'm still without an evolution item and I've been playing constantly
Maybe they have a problem with us conservatives here in Utah. Lol
Or maybe they just hate me!
scott moore + Keep looking bud there out there 😀💯
Get a portable floor AC unit that vents out your window for the apartment. They work really well and can easily cool down the whole apartment and not use too much electric. Easy and relatively cheap option.
Just got all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out, but it's still not as painful as being a rural Pokemon Go player.
Hi, which drone do you have please? You dont have that one which is in video description, you put in back another one black one. Thanks for answer!
If double exp does come out, will lucky egg quadruple my exp? (I wasn't around when the last double exp event came out).
Yeah it will :)
I like how at 3:00 The inside of the shop is at regular speed while the outside of the shop is a time lapse but if you look at the window's reflection you can see Nick in a time lapse while inside he's at regular speed at the same time as his reflection
people go to japan and ask what they think of scarlet johanson playing the major and the vast majority says she looks like the major. come to america and ask a bunch of people in LA and they scream we got to protest this.. yep seems rational.
plus Masamune Shirow asked her to play the roll.
Because in Japan, they are homogeneous and the dominant race. They don't know about racism in America because most of them have never been there, and their only experience of the US is from TV.
Eric P - I'm going to call this White-xplaining! It's when you have to sit
someone down to explain to them why they should be offended by something a white person is doing even though it does not offend them at the moment!
Eric P youre a fucking moron
Let white people or america tell you what's best for you. cause they know better lel
The editing while your eating is so awesome! Love the videos, man. Keep up the great work!
I thought sniping got fixed?
Yeah, It's weird. Only one update ago it said "Battle winners have a priority" whenever someone tried to snipe a gym.
Vulture V apparently it took a bit too long scrolling down to his farfetch'd
Yeah, it now gives thirty seconds of priority to the person who defeats the Gym. However if you take more than thirty then it is open to the world and can be sniped.
Nicolas Faust. It takes less in this update. Yesterday a gym I took down got sniped immediately after the the game showed me how much prestige it lost. I didn't even manage to open the pokemon storage.
I would have lost it at that guy on the bike
Nick, your video editing skills have gotten so much better since ep. 1! They've always been good, but dang!
I have not found any sponsored pokestops at all. Is that a US only thing?
Yup. That's why I don't believe it because it's not fair on anyone else in other countries.
difbufs no it isnt a US thing only i was in holiday in Valencia,Spain about a month ago and my hotel was next to a shopping center there were a lot of sponsored pokestops starbucks etc
difbufs it is not a US only thing. However there may be way more of them in the US because we have them at like every Starbucks and several phone service carriers.
Really enjoyed the time lapse in the window reflection while eating at the Thai restaurant. Thoroughly enjoy seeing your editing evolve over time.
New products? [insert Minor-Text-Fixes joke here]
Can we just take the time to appreciate the shot at 2:45 where Nick speeds up only the window scene, syncs 6 catches and makes it look pretty? So much going on.
There are now 4 people working on Pokemon go? Damn!
From watching the latest videos I can say that you are exceeding yourself in every video and improving your editing skills (like in this video, by the 3 minute mark), so keep it going Nick!
Ghost in the Shell - As a old school fan of Anime (Since 1992) I feel I'm qualified to comment on Nicks remarks! They are wrong (In my opinion)! Do white cos-players get accused of dressing in Yellow face? Is dubbed Anime considered Americanized by Asians? Are Asians unconformable seeing hordes of white kids dressed up as Asian cartoon characters? NO! Why? Because 99% of Japanese Anime characters do not look Asian (Hear me out!)! You can say its just the style of Animation but that same style depicts businessmen & the elderly as predominately Asian looking! If you look at the facial features, height, build, eye color, hair color, & attitude of these characters you would be hard pressed to find a real life Asian counterpart who wasn't cos-playing (Not counting school girls/boys)!
If your an American fan of Anime chances are a none Asian did the voice over! Does this take away from the quality of the product? I don't think so! (Example - Goko's annoying raspy voice in none dubbed DBZ compared to the American Dub!) Further more I don't believe this takes away work from Asians nor do I believe it belittles there culture! Actually I think it does the opposite! I think it generates interest in Anime & in Asian culture!
Why would ANYONE who is a fan of Anime & Ghost in the Shell boycott this movie over a actor? It doesn't help at all! I can't believe this movie even got made! It gives me hope that if its good enough they might make a Akira (My favorite Anime of all time) movie! If they do I don't care who they cast as long as they look the part & are good at their job! I don't think the casting of none Asian actors is a assault or a example of white washed Hollywood!
I guess my bottom line is if your going boycott this movie over a actor your closed minded because they are NEVER going to remake it with a Asian lead role! Your missing out on something that could be AWESOME because you cant get over your own bigotry! That's no way to go through life & its a close minded philosophy!
P.S. One of these days you have to get over David Carradine getting the role in KUNG FU over Bruce Lee! Isn't the way he died punishment enough! LET IT GO!!!
Nick, I don't even play PoGo anymore, but I watch for the insane and creative editing skills you clearly have. Keep up the crazy edits man
"Does she look Japanese? I don't think soooooo!" Even the characters in anime don't look japanese.
That editing at 2:50 when you were eating dinner was so cool! Keep up the great work Nick!

What do you think about having only one species of Pokémon per gym? So no multiple Blissey or Multiple anything. Would make a tier 10 gym a lot more diverse.
No one seems to care you picking your headset up by the cord. Made me cringe thinking about it pulling loose on the inside. I think I'm the only one who treats my tech like Faberge eggs
TwistedFire85 Yeah, it bothered me too. I've ruined so many pairs of headphones doing the same thing.
If it's an M50x, the cord is detachable so no harm done to the headphones if he ruins the cable.
TwistedFire85 i dont worry about them so much now becouse they dont make them like they used to unless there the over priced ones wich i just wont touch with kids around or even teenagers who keep lossing there's and then killing mine . why they dont make headsets like they used to that did take a beating is beyond me
My dude if your headset breaks with grabbing it by the cord then it's shit anyway, it's not supposed to just pull loose with it's own weight
Idk. I treat all electronics and tech with extreme care. I buy high end quality stuff and don't want to break them by being careless or not gentle with it
2:38 You're eating slow but the mirror reflection of you eats so quick lololol
"Does she look like she's Japanese?"
Do MOST anime characters look like they're Japanese?
Nova1080 -- To Japanese people, YES the anime/manga characters look Japanese. Even if they have blond hair. But the West thinks they are white.
that half timelapse looks freaking dope, nick, nice work as always!
Are the Special Evolution Items one use only?
Paul Brenner yes
Steven is cats Thanks
The effect with the window at the beginning was excellent. While Trainer Tips is one of the best resources for info on Pokemon Go, I also think it's about a very successful videographer in the early stages of his career.
I despise gym snipers with a fucking passion..
Hey Nick, great channel. I'm UK player who usually plays week days on commute about an hour fast walking and no stopping and have collected 4 metal coats, 3 sun stones, 1 upgrade and 1 kings rock. Maybe UK more item friendly.
those edits tho!
Damn Nick, you are killing it on your editing and sic shots. The intro blew my mind! WOW, Impressive.
I'm getting burnt on Pokemon Go but I will continue to follow your evolving artform.
Respect my brother from another mother. I am old enough to be your father.....
Seriously Nick, you're complaining about Ghost in the Shell? The character from the anime doesn't look Japanese either, I mean she's a purple-haired android with pale ass skin. Also the Japanese loved the choice of casting Scarlet Johansson. We are the only ones complaining about it.
Sage Martineau they did? Wow. Cool!
Raise the drawbridge! I see the White Knights on the horizon!
I'm trying not to take sides here, but the "pale skin" thing is a poor argument, seeing as that's a common trait of Japanese people.
I'm Japanese and do not love the choice.
I'm not saying she's not Japanese, I'm just saying that her race is rather ambiguous.
2:43 love how the outside is timelapsed while they are just chillin inside eating. 😋
Interesting selective racism you got there for a character of a Japanese anime that in concept is originally portrayed as Caucasian... Shame on you. Very disappointed with that comment "Does she look like she's Japanese?".
Scarlett Johansson is as Japanese as the films character Major Kusanagi is. If you actually were a fan of the original anime... then you would know that the characters race is intentionally ambiguous.
Nick, could you please tell us how long the gym is locked down for before someone else can put something in from another team. Or get someone to work it out with from another team. That would be awesome.
Okay, stepping in on that ScarJo Kusanagi comment. In the original Ghost in the Shell, Kusanagi is an android and not only that, the world wasn't set in Japan. I felt like that comment way off the point and didn't really need to be in the video, imo.
Love your content on PoGO but please, don't make rash comments on anime adaptations.
UltraTom -- Really? I've never read the manga, but from the anime I thought the Public Security Section 9 was based in Japan and under the Japanese government.
+UltraTom
Tom, Tommy, tommyboy,
You might wanna read some wikipedia or watch the anime or even read the manga before commenting. Motoko is a cyborg, not an android. The manga/anime is set in a cyberpunk future in fictional Japanese city.
Love your face but please do not make comments you are unsure of.
Love the reflection time lapse, that's super awesome/innovative editing
anybody watch samurai jack? also my trainer tips t shirt is awesome!
xnipponxd xp it was on today and I watched it
I work at a Starbucks, and have a Go+. I'm constantly spinning the stop... no evolution items.
His intro is perfect fucking music
Your friends always seems fun to hang around, wish I had friends like that. Enjoy your trip!
Thumbs up team Instinct.😏
2:36-3:16 Not one bite. Cool how you can only see actual consumption in the window's reflection only. Great shot.
5:42 #SALT
I work next door to a sponsored poke-stop, a Starbucks, I spin the stop all day with my GoPlus and have yet to get any evolution items from it. I spin it consistently 4-5 days a week
See the video was fun, except for the quip about ghost in the shell...really? Like REALLY that is your basis for not seeing a movie?
+trnrtips i got 4 daysoff so i used them to do some research. each day i walked approximately 7 miles but i had about 20 pokestops that i could spin in about a 1/2 mile stretch. i walked back and forth spinning the pokestops over and over again. took me about 5 to 7 hours. First day i got a sunstone 2nd day a kings rock 3 day a metal coat. 4th day i went to adiff town with 9 pokestops did the same thing and got an upgrade. if u have the time maybe try this out. pick out some pokestops and spin them for a few hours. seemed to work for me.
The Ghost in the Shell thing is getting old. The body shes in wasn't a human asian body. Generic, not reflective of her as a person whatsoever.
Why not address the real issue. That you cannot cast an unknown Asian in a high budget blockbuster. Or rather Hollywood thinks you can't. Instead of not supporting a major adaptation of an anime. I'd like to see this become more normal. More adaptations of anime and manga. You have to support it when you see it.
So instead of being racist and whining that there's a white person playing a raceless cyborg in a movie made in a country with a majority white population, I'll be supporting adaptations of anime projects by major film companies. Not that you(Nick) are being racist or whining. Most of the people talking about this film are tho.
Funny to watch Nick's reflection in the glass eat really fast during the time lapse at 2:41 while the real Nick eats normal speed lol
There is not much content game in this vid. What happened? Repeating the content from SilphRoad is not fun to watch.
Wang Liao dont watch
That is why I fast forward majority of it.
Wang Liao Why don't you go to someone like FsuAtl, he has a lot of new "content"
I dnt think it's just nick, bentimm1 videos has been ''Garbo'' lately, mystic keeps talking about niantic and the pokemon go youtube community and ali a just a clickstabater. Must be hard to be a pokemon go youtube creator and come up with fresh ideas for a stagnant game.
Theres nothing else to do on the game.
The editing in this video was fantastic!!!! Also I love the views! Great Job!!!
You judged a movie because the actress didn't have the right race?
Xenon Lights textbook racism
Xenon Lights He judged the movie because asians are consistently underrepresented in the film industry, even when it comes to movies of the own culture. It's a valid complaint.
There is no right race for a character that is depicted as being ambiguous with her own race.. The character Major Kusanagi in the original anime only has a Japanese name. The character is visually depicted as being Caucasian.
I don't care if she's Japanese or not as long as she can act and do her job good it's great
I do the same. The latest Annie film as an example.
Just giving props for very cool, very enjoyable editing aesthetics....2:42 montage....sweeeeeet.
"Does she look like she's Japanese?"
"No." *Nickcondescendingly rolls his eyes*
>Jeez, that's a bit close-minded of you Nick....wasn't it you that said something about 'not believing in borders, and all of us living together as one'?
You know, it sounds like you're just as committed to the idea of borders and cultural distinctions as those who you criticize. Amirite?
Dylan Stewart let's put in an unknown Asian actress ,who won't attract any people to watch the movie
the character is Japanese so the actor should be Japanese
TACO name 1 famous Japanese actress
The problem Nick has is that white people dominate movie culture and that when a successful movie with a Japanese lead gets a chance to hit major movie screens and they cast a white superstar to play her, it just excludes Japanese people further.
Dylan Stewart holy tits how did you get him being ok with building a border for his distaste of an actress in a movie? 2 different things.
I love the way Nick edited it so that the reflection at 2:45 is sped up =)
nick you need to be more open-minded. you always advocate for open-mindedness, then yougo and be closed minded. live by example or your words becoming meaningless
Luke Buaas ikr
Because he said she wasn't Japanese? Sounds like you just want him to agree with you...
James Owens Nah just cause he rolled his eyes and was all salty about it
My dad got a kings rock from a sprint pokestop. He has 4 evolutionary items and I only have 1. The one I got was on my 7th day streak when gen 2 first released and I haven't seen one since... We went to a big Onix nest yesterday and my dad picked up another kings rock. We didn't find any metal coats. There were 3 of us and we spun about 30 pokestops each.
sorry Scarlett Johansson is white =/
I guess race matters a lot to Trainer Tips and he wont spend money on something if he decides somebody is the wrong color.
Miku Bear It matters when asians and other races are consistently underrepresented in film.
Maybe there is not a ton of Japanese female actresses that wanted to play this roll, and if that is the case is that the fault of the producer/creator and every one else who worked on this film?
Probably not a lot of women even wanted this roll due to the bodysuit and short hair and stunts involved, so they picked the best of what they got and it was Scarlett Johansson.
She actually wanted the roll, and it's neat there are people in Hollywood that are nerdy in the same way I am.
Yeah, I thought about that, too. I personally would have liked to see Rinko Kikuchi do the role but it's possible a lot of people might not have wanted it just because of the bodysuit thing.
I don't care about the race of the person playing the roll, as long they enjoy and want that roll.
If Halle Berry had come out and said she was a huge fan of the anime and really wanted to play the Major I would be stoked to see her do it, ex Bond girl and Catwoman, I think she would be great if I didn't just google her to get the correct name spelling and found out she is 50.
If you want to see lots of asians in movies, go watch some asian movies. Lot's of good korean horrors I've been watching on netflix. In America, there are mostly Americans. So naturally, there will be more american actors. Same thing in other countries.
Hey Nick, wanted to say that your editing is dope and it has got a lot better compared to when you started :)))
Why does he have such a problem with it just because she's not Japanese? Maybe she was just a really good choice for the role skill-wise. You're a great guy, but try to be a little more open-minded to both sides of a situation.
GrandMasterLynx I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment lol
Ricky lee He's already offended a lot of wrong people lol. Most of the time, people were just overreacting and taking it the wrong way, but this time, what he said wasn't exactly excusable, unless he can explain that he meant something different or something.
GrandMasterLynx Exactly. Just because she's not Japanese doesn't mean it's wrong or unfit to be quality material.
That's like bitching about Jack Nicholson, Leo etc. weren't Japanese in the Departed movie. Or actors in The Ring movie. Just cuz a movie is made for North American FIRST vs Japan, some reason it's a race thing. If GitS live action was done in Japan first, no one would give a shit.
Skialar Mahar A white person playing a character named Motoko Kusanagi makes no sense. A Japanese woman could easily have been cast.
MAAAAAN! That sequence of you two eating at the restaurant at regular speed with the time lapse outside of the window and the multiple catches was AWSOME! (To me at least 😅)
Nick you hypocrite. You say that other people who have gotten lots of evolution items from sponsored poke stops have too small of a sample size. Right off the bat you spin two and claim hat is evidence that their claims are not valid!
Daniel Truong ikr trainer tips is salty af
He's actually doing it the proper way. Nick is saying you need more proof before you can make the claim that sponsereds are better. Then he asks for more people to tweet there experiences
+Daniel Truong +Steven is cats
Are you high or just stupid?
When you have a user base of millions and less than maybe 1000 users saying that they got more items from sponsored poke stops, Logic dictates that those 1000 users are too small a size to draw any conclusive evidence. And him spinning just 2 poke stops will not affect that conclusion
Neither. I did not say I agree with the few users who claim that sponsored poke stops give more evolution items. My point was that he's using the logic he's trying to disprove.
+Daniel Truong
Huh...what ? What are you trying to say ?
When Nick spun those two poke stops, he was already saying that that claim was too small to draw any useful conclusions. The results from those two poke stops, did not alter nor confirm anything as spinning two poke stops is also too small a number to confirm anything. After which, he did ask for more input on the matter via twitter.
Reflection vs. Reality editing starting @ 2:42 was flipping awesome!!
Didn't think Nick was racist but this vlog says otherwise :/
Ash Ash Because he wants asians to be represented in the film industry? It's not fair to have roles consistently whitewashed
James Owens No, because he was insinuating that if the actor was a different race he'd watch it, but as she's currently 'white' he's not going to watch it.
Who cares about the actors race? Let the best actor for that role play the character
Ash Ash How is he racist? He is white European from his dad's side.
You don't know what racism is...you can't be racist to white people lol
Also saying 'who cares about race' is a very harmful argument, for example, when black people are killed by police in the US because they are black. Race and labels matter.
@bexyros. Stop spreading ignorance you can't just make up your own definitions for words
Your editing skills are really really good. And still getting better. Niceeee.
Honestly, your reporting on all things Niantic and Pokemon GO is what I come for, but the video editing is what I stay for.
Geoff: OMG, this one's funny...Fat Ash Ketchum
Ash: Uh, actually I'm just Ash Ketchum...so.
I just wanted to take the time and say that your vids are always awesomely edited. It's a joy to watch.
Fun to see that your reflection in the window was speeded up but you were just sitting there :P (first timelapse) have fun this weekend!
I just wanted to reply to your inquiry about the Evolution Items and Sponsored poke stops. I have gotten so far 1 upgrade, 6 metal coat, 3 kings rock, 5 sun stone, and 3 dragon scales. Not a single one came out of a sponsored stop if that helps your data at all.
2:43 sick shot! reflection in window goes by fast, right side is normal speed. i like it
"Ayy bruh I know this kid aint jus swipe my Gym! I aint goin home till I rek all his Pokemon!!!" Spammin that attack button until it goes down. Facial reaction was gold. Best part of that whole vid. Big ups Nick. Made my day bruh.
Am I the only one that noticed that when nick and Cassie were eating lunch that the reflection on the window was a time lapse of them eating but the actual video of them eating was in real time? That's some crazy stuff there nick lol
beautiful clips around 3;12.... i love the busy street view with the normal speed of them eating :)
I got a bunch of sun stone and kings rock from what I think is probably the same stop near my apartment, when that stuff just came out... but I'm not exactly sure which one it was...
not a sponsored stop
The editing in the restaurant was golden!!!!!
Hey... Happy 200 episodes 👍😊!
I got no evolutionary items since the launch of Gen 2.
Beautiful editing when you are eating 👍it's smooth and nice.
I agree with you on the movie, wrong choice of actress.
Have a good weekend, relax and have so fun at the same time 😀.
Great video as always keep up the good work 😊.
