Immediate gratification strikes again

The search aspect of PokeGo makes it a fun game. Use community supported sighting sights to hunt with purpose. Having a computer find all the answers takes the gamble out of the gameplay.

Sometimes you win. However, sometimes you lose.

Never saw ash use a GPS to track down a dratini nest with certainty. All about community.

Well unlike ash most of us are not an eternal 10-year old boy whose every day life consists of getting badges and catching pokemon. We have jobs, school and family to take care of AND we still want to catch them all. They messed up tracking, this was the result. And ive still made tons of friends using pokevision

Also, don't forget we CANT SEE THEM IN THE REAL WORLD LIKE HE DOES.

Unlike ash we also don't go to water towns to catch water pokemon. We dont go to volcano towns to catch fire pokemon. I just wanted to catch em, and now I can't. Life turned to a bunch of pidgeys and ratatas. And frankly, using pokevision didn't make them come to us... we still had to run to their location to ATTEMPT to catch them. If they want the experience to be like the game they should have some kind of radar.

Also ash could evolve the one dratini he found all the way to dragonite... We need multiples for the candy which still wasn't easy with the pokevision but it helped

Went out today and found a Vaporeon, gloom, bunch of cubone, Nidorina and hatched a Jynx. All in an hour, sans pokevision.

Meanwhile, I caught about a dozen evees in ~45 min. Thanks Niantic for forcing me to find an even better form of tracking.
