So there is no shiny?

Everyone was presuming that the Bulbasaur on the promo art was a shiny but someone would be showing theirs off by now if they were out there, right?

Definitely. If there was a shiny we would certainly know about it by now.

Yeah, once again Niantic bombed on expectations management here. You'd think with over 200 mons they could release one shiny and it's shiny evolution once an event. I suppose since this is not happening they will just dump a large number of shinies all at once at some update down the road.

Maybe this is just me, but has anyone noticed a trend with the grass event? This morning it was all Bulbasaurs, followed by a period of Exeggutes mixed with Sunkerns, and now Hoppips?. Hopefully it will return to Bulbasaurs soon, I only need 5 more for a really good Venusaur. Of course I have to find a decent IV/CP Bulbasaur first. Which brings me to my second trend: low IVs and CP. Maybe this is just me/my area… anyone else?

Everyone?
So much speculation about nearly every possible thing...eventually someone will be right and then they scream 'See...we are experts'.

I may sound a little jaded...but it seems everywhere you turn there is someone trying to claim they know what will happen, and when.

This is why I like GP - they wait until something is verified and then give facts about it...rather than throwing out a speculation net, in hope of catching a little something eventually, and say 'i told you so'.

I agree. Why can't we just be happy with what we get for once and not muse about the things Niantic might have given us in addition or instead? The event is exactly as advertised. I don't think Niantic is to blame if people add unfounded expectations to the mix and consequently end up disappointed.

I don't care about what people expect at all, but I must say I am very disappointed with this event, what is the point of making a 3 day grass event without anything else? It seems like they were in a rush to put this event out because they had nothing else? Or the one thing they had for this update has failed? I don't know if I am making assumptions but no one else feels like this event is out of place? They make a 3 day grass event and after the anouncement they add 6h lures when people starts complaining like crazy...not even a shiny added when it perfectly fits this event as they did with magikarp/gyarados during water event, not even something like half buddy distance, or double dust, or double candy, or more items from stops...

The truth is that leaving out speculation it made perfectly sense to release more shinies during this biome change event.

I know it seems like a complaint all the time but I want this game to be amazing, I love it and I want more reasons to play it everyday, we need content Niantic.

What is the point of being so slow adding new things? Why after a month since the introduction of shinies there are still no more of them in the game? What is the point to start a path if you don't follow it until it is finished, they added genders but still no breeding, they added streaks but no more daily quests, they release a shiny but no more of them...

This game is amazing. If you don't like it, no one is forcing you to play. You certainly don't have to vent online about how bad it is. Enjoy the ride man!

I like it more than you without any doubt because I try to find ways to improve it and give my feedback to Niantic as a player that loves this game while you just comment to attack someone without giving any kind of arguments.

Won't lose any more time answering people like you.
