How to Play Pokemon GO!

สิงหาคม 14th, 2016 admin
Trainer Details
Unlike most Pokémon games, the core aspect of progression isn’t tied to the Pokémon, but rather in this case it is tied to the trainer. When you start the game, you have the ability to customise your trainer with a few preset options, as well as choose its name. When you reach Level 5, you can also assign yourself a special Team to fight for: Team Instinct, Team Valor & Team Mystic. You can also collect medals which you can see in the trainer section on the bottom left of the screen.

The key part, however, is experience. Whenever you do something in the game, your character will gain experience and eventually level up. As your level increases, you will discover more Pokémon and face Pokémon with stronger Combat Points in the wild. You’ll also get various perks and unlock new items.

Practically everything that you do will give you experience, from checking a PokéStop to catching a Pokémon.

Combat Points
When you battle a Pokémon in the wild, you will notice a number by it listing its “CP”, otherwise known as Combat Points. This is essentially the calculation of the strength of the Pokémon. Each Pokémon has got a base Combat Points level and their maximum varies depending on species, size and your own trainer level. As your trainer level gets higher, you will encounter more higher levelled Pokémon.

Combat Points are the power of the Pokémon and help determine how much damage your Pokémon does in battle when against a Gym. The higher the CP compared to the opponent, the more damage inflicted.

However, aside from all that, the CP is determined based on the power of your Pokémon. This is shown by a scale running in a semicircle at the top of the Pokémon status screen. This circle essentially shows what could be considered as the Pokémon’s Level and can be increased. When a Pokémon evolves, the placement in the semi circle will remain the same, but the Pokémon’s CP will likely increase based on the Pokémon’s base stats.

When the trainer level increases, the Pokémon you already have will not have their CP increase but will gain access to more on the scale. For each level you’re at as a trainer, you can Power Up your Pokémon twice.

Increasing Combat Points
Increasing CP is relatively simple. As you capture Pokémon, you will collect the special item called Stardust. Teamed with the Stardust and the candy for each of the Pokémon, you can power up the Pokémon. This is not done by training it at gyms but rather by using these items.

The amount of Stardust required is dependent solely on what part of the scale the Pokémon is currently on. There are still restrictions on how far up the scale the Pokémon can go based on the trainer level. The higher the level and the more you have to spend. This is done on a pseudo-level system. Each Pokémon has an individual level determined by the curve. If it starts out higher then the Stardust requirements to Power Up are larger. It will increase every few Power Ups until you hit the highest the Pokémon can be. You can’t do this, however, until your Trainer Level allows it.

Power Up Stardust Required Candy Required
1-4 200 Stardust 1 Candy
5-8 400 Stardust 1 Candy
9-12 600 Stardust 1 Candy
13-16 800 Stardust 1 Candy
17-20 1000 Stardust 1 Candy
21-24 1300 Stardust 2 Candy
25-28 1600 Stardust 2 Candy
29-32 1900 Stardust 2 Candy
33-36 2200 Stardust 2 Candy
37-40 2500 Stardust 2 Candy
41-44 3000 Stardust 3 Candy
45-48 3500 Stardust 3 Candy
49-52 4000 Stardust 4 Candy
53-56 4500 Stardust 4 Candy
57-60 5000 Stardust 4 Candy
61-64 6000 Stardust 4 Candy
65-68 7000 Stardust 4 Candy
69-72 8000 Stardust 4 Candy
73-76 9000 Stardust 4 Candy
77-80 10000 Stardust 4 Candy

Once you reach the 60th power up, then the next power ups will yield smaller increases to Hit Points and to Combat Points.

In addition to this, Wild Pokémon typically cap at no more than the equivalent of 60 Power Ups, and hatched Pokémon are capped to the equivalent of 40 Power Ups, so you’ll never catch or hatch Pokémon at higher levels of CP and will need to power them up.
Determining Combat Points
Combat Points are determined in a very simple way. Like the main games, Pokémon have got specific stats, this time Hit Points, Attack and Defense, with Attack and Defense being hidden stats. Using these, the Combat Points are determined, but there are more values involved.

Also like the main games, Pokémon in Pokémon GO have got Individual Values in their stats, these run from 0 to 15 with 15 being the best. This is also used in the calculation of Combat Points. There’s also a special value for each Power Up level that is used in the calculation

The calculation is as follows

CP = floor((Base Attack + Attack IV) * (Base Defense + Defense IV)^0.5 * (Base HP + HP IV)^0.5 * (PowerUpValue^2) / 10 )

This will determine the Combat Points. However, there is no way to determine the IVs of your Pokémon in the game

Items
Items are always a vital part of the Pokémon gameplay and Pokémon GO is no different. This game has a variety of items which can help aid your journey to collect all the Pokémon and raise your trainer level. Some of these items can be purchased while others can only be found in PokéStops.

You can only hold a finite amount of items at any one time but this can be expanded by purchasing bag upgrades in the Shop.

Teams
When you finally hit Level 5, you can start to access Gyms. Before you can, you are told to join one of three teams. Joining the team will determine what colour you go for and allow for you to team up with other local players against the other teams.

Team Instinct Team Mystic Team Valor
Picture Team Instinct Team Mystic Team Valor
Legendary Mascot Zapdos Articuno Moltres
Colour Yellow Blue Red
Leader Spark Blanche Candela

At present, there’s no evidence of any additional enhancement for each of the teams.
Gyms
Despite Pokémon GO being vastly different to the main games, it does have a recurring feature. These are gyms and are located in a variety of locatrions around the world. These locations are all set on the servers and can be seen by all. If you see a gym which is silver, then that means it is currently uninhabited and can be taken for your team. You can select a Pokémon to look after the gym.

Like the player, Gyms have levels but you can’t control the level too much. Instead, it is determined by prestige. The gym’s prestige is increased and decreased depending upon whether or not a challenge has been defeated or if a challenger has defeated the gym. If the prestige hits 0, then the gym is lost to the team and can be claimed by any other player. As the gym increases in level, more players in your team can place Pokémon there. If you and another player of your team are attacking the same gym, both player’s Pokémon appear in the game and will attack the opponent at the same time.

If the Gym is under the control of someone from your team, then you can also station a Pokémon there in order to try and fortify the gym so prestige is not lost. You can also train other Pokémon there to see if your gym is properly fortified and how your Pokémon work.
Gym Prestige
Much like the trainer, gyms have their own levels and rank up accordingly based on how well they do. To boost prestige at a gym you own, you simply have to train at it, or put a Pokémon into it. To lower the prestige of an opposing team’s gym, you have to defeat Pokémon in battle. If you defeat all the Pokémon in the gym, the Prestige hit is larger.

As a gym levels up, it allows for more Pokémon to be placed in the gym, thus making it even harder to take down. However, when that happens, it also loses more prestige if it gets defeated. Should the loss in prestige level down the gym, then the weakest Pokémon will be booted out and returned to the trainer.

Level Prestige Required Number of Pokémon
Level 1 0 1 Pokémon
Level 2 2,000 2 Pokémon
Level 3 4,000 3 Pokémon
Level 4 8,000 4 Pokémon
Level 5 12,000 5 Pokémon
Level 6 16,000 6 Pokémon
Level 7 20,000 7 Pokémon
Level 8 30,000 8 Pokémon
Level 9 40,000 9 Pokémon
Level 10 50,000 10 Pokémon

Players can boost prestige of their gym by Training. This has players use 1 Pokémon against all the Pokémon in the gym. The experience yeild and boost in prestige is smaller than taking a gym, but can boost the gym up so it can survive more attacks. If multiple players attack or train at gyms at the same time, they will each recieve the experience accrued from the battle

Act Prestige Gain/Drop
Add a Pokémon to the gym +2000 Prestige
Defeat a Pokémon in Training +100 Prestige
Defeat a Pokémon in Training that has higher CP than yours +500 Prestige
Defeat all Pokémon in Training +50 Prestige
Defeat an opposing Pokémon -500 Prestige
Defeat all opponent Pokémon -1500 Prestige

However, when a gym manages to fend off against attacks, the prestige is increased by small amounts, which are still being calculated.
Gym Battles
If a Gym is being held by another team, then you can battle it. The battles are relatively simple, with the moves being automatic. If you tap the opponent Pokémon, then your Pokémon will attack. As the Pokémon attack and Hit Points are lowered, a second attack is charged up. When that attack is fully charged it unleashes with a more powerful move. You can also dodge your opponent’s attacks by swiping left or right.

When you challenge the gym, you can select up to 6 Pokémon of your to take it on. This gives you a bigger chance at taking on a gym and winning. However, if you are just training in a gym owned by your team, you can only bring in one.

If other players in your team or the team not owning a gym join in battle, it allows for stronger gyms to be more easily taken out as they appear in the battle and attack the opponent.
Gym Bonus
There is another perk to holding a gym. Once every 21 hours, if you go to the shop you will be able to get a bonus. The bonus you will receive is dependant on how many gyms you currently have Pokémon within. For each gym you have a Pokémon in, you will get 10 PokéCoins, as well as 500 Stardust. The more gyms you have, the bigger the bonus.

 

Pokémon Evolution
Pokémon have always had the ability to evolve in order to become the next Pokémon in the chain and gain some significant strength. In this game, evolution does exist but it’s not tied to progress of the Pokémon’s level/CP, but rather based on an amount of candy that you obtain throughout the game. To get candy, you can do one of several things. First, catching a Pokémon of the species will give you 3 Candy outright. If you Transfer the Pokémon to Professor Willow, you will receive 1 Candy. Finally, when you hatch an egg, you will get between 5 and 30 candy. Candy isn’t just used for evolution but also to power up Combat Points.

Evolution does power a Pokémon up, but you may wonder what happens to the Combat Points bar. While the points increase, the bar will stay level meaning that the Pokémon can still be powered up, depending on the level.

Finding Pokémon
Finding Pokémon is a relatively simple affair. While in general, you can just walk around and hope for Pokémon to appear, there are a few tricks to get the Pokémon you want. In the bottom right hand corner of the screen there is a “Nearby Pokémon” tab which shows the three closest Pokémon. When you click it, you will bring up a list of the nearest Pokémon, up to 9 of them at once. With the Pokémon, there are four different potential icons nearby

  • 0 Footprint – The Pokémon is right on top of you and will appear soon
  • 1 Footprint – The Pokémon is within approx. 20 metres
  • 2 Footprints – The Pokémon is within approx. 100 metres
  • 3 Footprints – The Pokémon is within approx. 1 kilometre

However, Pokémon are not always there and new ones will pop up or go away at any time. If you wish, you may tap a Pokémon in the Nearby list and use it to try and triangulate its location for capture.Pokémon can typically be found in bits of shaking grass, so if you see a Pokémon is nearby and you don’t know where, heading to a piece of grass is the most logical course of action.

If you use an incense, then for the duration of the incense a Pokémon is more likely to appear. If you’re walking, one will appear every minute, if you’re standing still one will appear every 5 minutes. The same effect happens for all players if a Lure Module is put in a PokéStop.
Catching Pokémon
Capturing Pokémon is the crux of the entire game and when you find a Pokémon in the wild, when you tap it you will enter the battle. This is done either with the device’s camera making the background or, if that’s deactivated, a special background appears based on the time of day and location.

To capture a Pokémon, all you need to do is throw a ball at it. This requires you to aim at the Pokémon and throw the ball. This can miss, however, as the ball can go off in whatever direction you aim it. The longer the swipe on the phone, the further the ball will be thrown. You can also do trick curve shots by spinning the ball before you throw it. This will give you a small bonus.

When you go to catch a Pokémon, when you hold the ball down you will see a circle shrinking and then restarting. This circle can denote how hard the Pokémon is to capture.

  • Green – This Pokémon is easy to capture and won’t likely break out of the Poké Ball
  • Yellow – This Pokémon is slightly difficult to capture and may break out of the Poké Ball
  • Orange – This Pokémon is moderately difficult to capture and may break out of the Poké Ball
  • Red – This Pokémon is difficult to capture and will likely break out of the Poké Ball

If you throw the ball when the circle matches the white circle around the Pokémon, you will get a bonus. However, the smaller the circle, the better the chance of captureAlternatively, if you use a Pokémon GO Plus device with your phone, you can just tap the device and the Pokémon can be captured. The device will vibrate when a Pokémon encounter has begun and will begin to flash green. Press the button to throw a ball and it osolates to decide if it is caught or not. If it flashes a rainbow colour, then the Pokémon is caught. If it flashes Red, then the capture failed. This is all done without checking the phone.
Items
When you go to capture a Pokémon, in the bottom right hand corner you can access your bag in order to use one of multiple items. These items can be found in PokéStops or purchased in the game’s shop.
