Anyone on here hit lvl 50?

I just hate the Exp Grind. 39-40 sucked, and all these other levels are just as bad. Im like 33% to lvl 50 and Im lvl 45. Its a joke lol.

But to those who have made it, congrats! Im grinding to 46, but then ill probably stop for a while again because, well I dont like Friend Bonuses, Evolving, or anything really EXP Related lol.

I'm at level 49. I need 10 million more XP to get to 50. Once I get the XP I'll do the task that requires getting to level 10 in PVP. It's been a grind to get that first 20 million and with lack luster raids I haven't been getting the XP from raids. I'm horrible about gifts so I miss out on that XP from not sending or opening.

I started playing a bit again, albeit very casually. Anyone want to add me as a trainer friend? Could use some more contacts for some missions, need to send out some gifts. Trainer code: 3832 2302 1879

Added both of you this morning. I was around a bit early on in the thread and know that I have a handful of you already and at best friends, but anyone else who is needing someone to swap gifts.

I did alright...was able to find a 100 but it seemed the XL candy was nerfed. They weren't WB in my area so that could have been a factor.

Seeing some speculation that Niantic is intentionally trying to kill the game by doubling the remote raid pass cost to force players over to their own IP game, Peridot.

It does feel like interest in the game is waning.

Maybe, if the game does die at some point, I'll make some Pokemon-style cards to commemorate my best 'mons.

There has been a lot of backlash with the remote raid daily limit and pricing. I'm curious if Nintendo/Pokemon have a say in any of this. Niantic has Peridot and Monster Hunter coming out so I think that has something do with what's going on.

I'm still playing daily but having to be careful with remote raiding now.

I'm still playing and mostly enjoying. The remote raid thing is definitely lame. Don't think I've done a single one since the price jacking, though there also haven't been many featured raids that were super interesting lately. Mostly this has just forced me to make sure I'm getting mons in gyms regularly to try to get the max 50 coins per day. I won't spend money on this game

I have a lot more fun with the game when I have tangible things to work on. The research quests are fun, but too far and few in between. My main project for the last few months has been just working on the scatterbug patterns. Challenging to find random players from specific regions and get enough gifts exchanged. And then obviously there's a ton of candy needed to get the evolutions. I've also been shiny hunting more, not necessarily very successfully, but that along with the scatters is what I've found myself wanting the most

When the scatterbugs were first introduced we ended up with people on our discord server with access to all of them so we were lucky to be able to finish them quick. Even then it was still a challenge for some.

I've still been doing remote raids but I haven't hit my limit of 5 but maybe once or twice. I'm fortunate to be near a lot of gyms so I can remote in person often.
