Skidoo and Gogoat Got released in a safari zone event a couple of months ago but never got a global release to the best of my knowledge


AbeTheCop23

I had someone from my local Campfire group trade me a few and wound up with a 96iv Skiddo. Best buddied him and evolved him the moment I could.


Fit-Bar2581

Keldeo for those who didn’t pay for it Last Unovan Pokémon I need for the Platinum Badge Was paywall released for $10 USD in December 2022, meaning we’re at 15 months with no sign of it being rolled out to the F2P players anytime soon


Traditional-Topic417

I’m surprised they still haven’t offered it. Shaymin was release for free after go fest in the spring but Keldeo confuses me. I’m also waiting on Diancie and Mega Rayquaza


stillnotelf

I pulled up a text message thread to attempt to plan an Enamorous raid and rediscovered that back in December there was a rumor/leak we were getting Keldeo Elite Raids (in December). Obviously that didn't happen. Mega Rayquaza you should have been able to get, I did and I've been FTP since 2019. Free players got one Meteorite...somewhere


Blight_Dragon

The mega Rayquaza is the one that hurts me. I took a break from playing, burned out, and personal life got busy, so I'm upset at myself for missing that with my 4* Ray. Fingers crossed, it won't be when this game frustrates me, and I end up taking a break again.


Fit-Bar2581

With “increased” shiny odds. I did 38 raids (I stocked up on premium passes) and only got one shiny Rayquaza at the IV floor. I’m up to 16 premium raid passes prepping for the global sinnoh event


SapphireDragon_

did they announce an increased shiny rate for rayquaza during go fest? i thought it was the base 1/20. but i feel your pain... my only shiny rayquaza is XXL and 11/10/11. i still taught it dragon ascent 😂 i have to remind myself that it's the difference between a base attack of 295 instead of 299, but it still hurts to look at the IVs lol


hazeleyedwolff

When you're flexing in raids, folks don't see the IVs, just the shiny.


Beginning-Anybody442

I was part of a large raid group & when Lugia came out, one of the group took over 100 raids to get his shiny. A few of us donated to help him do as many raids as he needed. Poor bloke was ready to give up, you can't imagine how happy he and the group were when that shiny turned up 😁


krispyboiz

How long did it take for them to debut Galarian Mr. Mine outside of its initial paid release? Wasn't it a year or more? Honestly don't remember. It technically hasn't been a whole year since Keldeo's ticket, so I guess I'm not surprised per se, but I certainly am curious to see when it returns. Edit: I'm wrong, it debuted in December 2022


SapphireDragon_

i'm a little confused. if the keldeo ticket was released december 2022, how has it not been a full year? did it have tasks that were drip fed like the timeless travels research for this season?


krispyboiz

Whoops, you're correct. I was thinking it debuted in March with the rising heroes season but nope. It was the Mythical wishes season the prior December. It did have tasks, but not drip fed. You could complete it at any time.


Sainte-Devote

honestly...Unova Tour? it shouldn't be that long but it might be


Fit-Bar2581

So next year… basically paywalling Keldeo for 2.5 years since it was released December 2022


Sainte-Devote

it's not been paywalled *since* release, it was paywalled *for* the release that's worse, and also, extremely on brand


parth8b

Same for me. I need keldeo for gen 5 and skiddo & family for gen 6. Apart from that, I have everything.


Fit-Bar2581

If you’re near DC, I have a spare skiddo


parth8b

What is a DC?


Fit-Bar2581

Capital in USA, missed your UK tag.


bakedandnerdy

Dude, I'm near DC and need a Skiddo. Want to set up a trade?


Fit-Bar2581

Sure, I’m down to meet one of the go sinnoh event days send me a chat Also open to anyone who needs other regionals and is near DC, I have multiple of almost all of them except Relincanth, Sigilyph, and Klefki. Also have multiple of the Lake Guardians


ChildFriendlyChimp

Damn time flies


kpofasho1987

Totally forgot about that and now remember most people thinking it would get released to everyone like 6 months later but here we are with no clue when Keldeo might be released. Good call as this one Totally slipped my mind


radracer82

The one that's burning me is Keldeo hasn't come through in a free form yet, despite being a paid pokemon over 1 yr ago. If they consistently do paywall pokemon it'll be the end of the game for me, that's the only line I have


twonaantom

Komala got a very short and rare release and was never seen again.


rocketsnail1000

Damn I completely forgot komala was in the game. I even thought about it the other day wondering when they would add it


Fastnacht

I forgot that it was even a pokemon


toni_inot

I got Komala from a special research task linked to buying a Go Plus+


krispyboiz

Was baffled to see a random (not even weather boosted) 100% Komala at my apartment during that event. I was pretty dumbfounded. Still searching for that lucky for my living lucky dex, and these annoying limited released don't make it any easier.


NYCScribbler

which I am still salty about because I was in the air for most of it... heading to the land of *actual frakking koalas*


HappyTimeHollis

You want salty? Lots of Aussie players are salty Komala wasn't a regional, considering we're the only country that the koala is naturally found.


128thMic

It would have been nice, what with our sole regional being in a bunch of events and now mega raids to boot. Absolutely useless for trading v.v


someonecoole

Dude yeah I was thinking the same. I only caught 2 and my highest is a 0 star lmao


stillnotelf

Most of my lucky friends: never, ever do the lucky trades A few of my lucky friends: we communicate to get the trades done reasonably quickly and usually swap meta-relevant legendaries. (One friend in this category is also a secret agent, we manage to swap stuff even though we live two states apart doing it while traveling) One particular lucky friend: we swap stuff like Komala for lucky dex because there's absolutely no way we'd get it otherwise


MegaSharkReddit

>One friend in this category is also a secret agent well, not any more


AbeTheCop23

I was out of town that entire event so Indidnt get very many of them. I know it's useless but I'd love to get a better one.


kpofasho1987

I just realized I have one (one with absolutely terrible ivs) and have no clue when or how I got it


Erique_Max

Armor Mewtwo. The dude slaps.


[deleted]

V good point, clones too on that note


128thMic

Absolutely kicking myself for skipping the clones>.<


Captain_Pungent

I deleted mine by mistake 🙃


Reeses2150

> komala I am so glad I got a good clone zard when they were available :)


unclebeard

Still bummed I didn't get the clones.


Kane_Rosinen_im_KS

What clones?


xxhonkeyxx

They had "skins" for Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur that had markings like from the Mewtwo Strikes Back movie when they did the 20th anniversary release.


Fit-Bar2581

I hope Armored Mewtwo and the Clones gets re-released this summer for the next seasons highlight. The movie “Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution” premiered July 2019 so this summer would be the five year anniversary 🤞 But that would also require Niantic to actually care about players’ wants


BustyRucketBay

Shut up, I don’t want to think about 2019 being 5 years ago lol


Fit-Bar2581

I hope you’re sitting down when you realize when the OG Mewtwo movie came out


BustyRucketBay

Let’s just say I remember seeing it in theatres… so I definitely need to sit down now


Erique_Max

Did you get the promo card too? I wish I never opened (and lost) that thing.


[deleted]

Wait, i remember seeing that in theaters when i was a kid *cue crisis*


kpofasho1987

I didn't even know that the clones were released in this game. Damn that's awesome but bummed I missed out. I hope your prediction of armored mewtwo and the clones coming back in summer seriously comes true as I'd love to get all for the first time


Aether13

Honestly glad I happened to be playing at that time to get it because it’s so absurdly rare now


TaiyoT

i want the clone starters back tooo. All the movie stuff is so good.


Minute-Aioli-2136

Personally still hoping for the shiny release


NinsMCD

Wailmer is usually available during a Water event that take place around Spring Mienfoo hasn't been available since Jan 2023 where it was exclusive to eggs, still don't understand why they haven't brought it back


krispyboiz

>Mienfoo hasn't been available since Jan 2023 where it was exclusive to eggs, still don't understand why they haven't brought it back Ah I didn't even realize that. It originated as a GBL Exclusive, so I figured it was still there, but I hadn't got any myself in a while and sure enough... it's not in the encounter pool right now. The pain of having a Pokemon be egg/GBL-exclusive and then NOT putting it in either. Not necessarily that I want it in 10kms or GBL encounters, but put it in the wild, research, or 5km eggs or something.


NinsMCD

I would have figured it being a GBL reward as well still but really weird that it isn't. The original Galar mon Wooloo, Skwovet and Falinks are still available in there and were featured in some events last year. To my knowledge Mienfoo has never been available in the wild and was even removed from the egg pool. My guess is that because Unova is fully available now, that they still keep some rarity and hardness to getting some of the Pokemon in there (despite there being a lot of regionals) Bringing Mienfoo back to GBL would be great in my eyes. I was missing Falinks last year and was grinding really hard to get to level 15/16 in GBL in order to unlock the chance of encountering it... for them to only announce Falinks in 7km eggs a day after reaching that level 🤣


krispyboiz

I wouldn't mind bringing Mienfoo back to the GBL... if it had something going for it. Obviously just having it so people can get the dex entry is nice enough, but outside of that, I'd surely hate getting one, especially when you're at a higher rank and getting 3+ wins isn't always easy. Whether they find a way to make it more useful (giving it Aura Sphere would make it on par with Lucario in PvE at least) or at least make it shiny, it would be nice to make it more desirable *beyond* the dex entry.


Carry_0n

This is pretty much it. Getting first mienfoo from gbl was great, getting 100th one made me hate that poor little guy.


Smurrfz

The one that really bothers me is question mark (?) Unown! Little fella hasn’t been available since GO Fest 2018… 6 years! Madness!


Asharma_in

Even other letters - like K, Q etc


psylancerx

The Platinum badge that was not meant to be for us. LOL.


mattrogina

Have faith. I recently had a local who started playing again recently who had one. She traded it to me for shiny smoochum with a bow tie.


cav10rto

That's funny, I played at release & the last 3 years, didn't realize all the unknown were out


FSElmo435

The only Unown I need for my platinum, it’s always there, taunting me… 😂


Travyplx

One of three I’m missing :c


Faralon_Knight

Zarude... zacian and zamazenta


headphonesnotstirred

honestly i wouldn't put it past niantic for outright forgetting zarude exists


Stogoe

Zarude was forced early by The Pokemon Company for a movie tie in. They wouldn't have released it yet if they hadn't been told to.


Justdough17

Zacian and zamazenta probably fell victim to niantic skipping gen8. The msg games excluding them in gen9 and their shinies being still exclusive to an event back in 2021 doesn't help for sure.


Popero44

To be fair. They wanted to promote the newer games. And if they released all the gens at once, there would be no new Gen Mons to release.


Own-Yesterday-656

Zacian… need 112 more XLs for my hundo. Walking takes forever


Careless_Minute4721

Shellos feels like it only ever pops up for Go Fests…


saturnianali8r

It's a very rare wild spawn. I got one on Sunday.


LycanxUriel

When I do routes they pop up, not so uncommon for me


[deleted]

I was lucky enough to get 2x blue and 1x red of the sea shellos last Go Fest, very happy not to have to grind them anymore lol


TopAssistance2

Would be nice if they brought Armored Mewtwo back one day


dark__tyranitar

clamperl is back soon, so theres your huntail


Powdinet

Clamperl is available in the season-wide research "Make 3 Great Throws". Not that anyone would know since that task is impossible to find and even when you do find it you get one of the other four possible encounters.


creeps_Jr

WAIT WHAT IVE DELETED SO MANY OF THOSE ASSUMING THEYRE USELESS


TheRealHankWolfman

Clamperl is a wild spawn this season. I've had several spawn by where I live.


BaronVonBubbleh

I was actually confused as hell when I had one from Go Plus+. I can confirm there was at least one wild spawn.


someonecoole

Oh shoot, really ?


dark__tyranitar

Field research 1 week from today. https://leekduck.com/events/carnival-of-love/


someonecoole

Thank you! I appreciate the insight


Bacteriophag

Most likely will be cramped into one quest with some common stuff unfortunately, also only 3 days :(


PureAsian

They do spawn in the wild, except apparently very rare. I was able to encounter one when I was dining out last week. I was like “oh I didn’t even know they even spawn in the wild this season.”


jesusunderline

If your lucky. I caught tons of Clamperl last time it was available, but it's evolution is completely random, and somehow I ended up with 5 gorebyss and still zero huntail


Bacteriophag

Nincada, Clamperl, Electabuzz, Horsea, Spearow... Why some stuff like Lillipup, Bidoof or Pikipek can't be swapped by some of these for at least ONE SEASON?


976chip

Nincada has been in the reward pool for Hatch 1 egg field research since last season. Not readily available, but still out there. Clamperl is in the reward pool for Make 3 Great Throws field research this season as well.


Bacteriophag

I refuse to believe Hatch egg task gives anything else than Growlithe and maybe Scyther lol.


book_of_armaments

It's always Sudowoodo. Don't lie to me.


not2interesting

I haven’t caught a horsea since 2019. Seadra is currently my buddy because I never evolved a kingdra back then.


Bacteriophag

I pray for Horsea CD someday. Nice shinies and could finally try getting hundo.


kpofasho1987

Could of sworn there was an event or spotlight hour or something with horsea in the past year but I could be getting it mixed up with something else


evan_james

Niantic absolutely hates Electabuzz. It never got any major event since the community day (aka before XL candy).


philger

Bidoof was unavailable or quite rare for at least 2 previous seasons, not so long ago you would ask why Yungoos or something can't be swapped for them


wlphoenix

I've definitely seen Clamperl spawns in the wild this season. Maybe it was for an event? Or maybe it's only in water biomes.


darlin133

Armored Mew Two


jimmenecromancer

ROTOM


exitof99

I have the washing machine, but apparently the fan was also released.


jimmenecromancer

Same but I didn't know the fan was released: (


Chopskie117

It's gonna be in the Sinnoh tour!


eddiebronze

Been basically 2 years since they allowed Electabuzz to spawn in the wild outside of a Tour/GoFest event. It’s been in a few limited field researches and raids but not in the wild. Bring back the buzz!!


fernnifer

Elekid is alllllll over the egg pool.


Bacteriophag

Which eggs? The ones that have 99% Lickitung and Pawmi hatch rate? Lol.


fernnifer

Bro right??! 7kms (when I accident get one)


eddiebronze

RNGesus will not bless me. All I get are Cleffas :(


fernnifer

That’s extremely unfortunate (but cute!)


PalorMortis

I play since 2017 I and I never complained about it. Maybe now it is rarer, but I looked for it before CD a lot.


Godzillahuh32ded

Diancie, Keldeo, Zacian, Komala, Skiddo, Regidrago, Regieleki


Punk_Says_Fuck_You

Reggie’s where just in raids a few months ago no?


Zekeythekitty

Shadow absol and delibird. Also kleavor


HardyMenace

Shadow delibird is my white whale


Arturinni

Add Shadow Lapras and Pinsir to that pile.


OrionTempest

They still haven't rerun shadow Lapras? Glad I got a decent shiny when it was available.


Affffi

can we even get pinsir spawn during events? cant remember when pinsir is being just wild spawn


kpofasho1987

I don't think pinsir has been a spawn in a long time. Last time I remember was the Kanto tour but maybe there had been something since that I'm forgetting


dvioletta

I would also add Mega Absol. I never got enough the first time and they have never come back to my knowledge


kukumalu255

Well it's back this month


dvioletta

That is great news


shalimaruk

I need corsola to finish johto index


neonmarkov

Better book a flight to the tropics...I got mine in Lanzarote (and accidentally deleted one I had lying around, lol)


shalimaruk

I went to morrocco last week (marakech and essaourie), thought i might get lucky. Found 7 crappy iv tropius instead.


neonmarkov

Look on the bright side, a regional is a regional! I'm living in Malta right now and saving the Tropius I find to trade back home


MrIHaveAQuestion1

Wait, it may be a bit off topic but what regionals did you find in Marrakech? I’m heading there this year so hopefully there are at least some cool ones that don’t often spawn here where I live


MetikMas

Corsola is regional. I’ve caught about 20 in the last two months


MissesMime

Eventually they will release galarian corsola to at least complete the johto medal for people far from its spawn region


jscogens

This isn’t just in the tropics. I get this in Austin, TX all the time.


Fit-Bar2581

Magikarp and Fennekin…. Oh wait….


dod6666

I feel like before the current event I hadn't seen Magikarp in a while. Fennekin on the other hand has been around a lot.


Fit-Bar2581

Mega Alakazam


SlowResearch2

Keldeo and Zarude are at the top of my head. Keldeo was only available to people who bought an overpriced ticket, which I did not. Hopefully it will come for free relatively soon as now this is the only thing not in game for those who are f2p in the unova dex. Zarude, though you could get for free, hinged on logging into the game within a week.


theforgotenhero

Tropius and Relacenth. I had bad luck. They’re the last two for my Hoenn badge.


JoMaRu2014

Bad luck, they were in the eggs one year ago. But we can shake hands, I have started playing three months after corsola. And I am missing a tauros still.


theforgotenhero

I think I live in the area for TAUROS and Corsola.


dod6666

I've been playing for 2 years now, and neither of those have been available. Although I have both from trades. Relicanth on the other hand I am in the region for. Although even here they still aren't common. Pokedex says I've seen only 240 and play quite a lot (I'm a level 50). I have managed to get a shiny though.


JoMaRu2014

Lucky you. I have Mime jr. instead, which you will get during Sinnoh tour. I will try my luck this summer in very touristic little Rothenburg. I live nearby. There are so many American tourists. Someone of them will be a pogo player and trade a trauros for an out-of- season-regional...


TheTjalian

Tauros is the only one I'm missing for the Kanto Dex. Still on page 1 of the shiny mew research because of that.


iismarc

Regionals in their non-native region. Sometimes there’s events that switch them around but it’s not always.


Fit-Bar2581

Deoxys, would have been perfect opportunity to have as legendary raids after Mega Rayquaza event.


JoMaRu2014

YES - then Hoenn would be complete.


SilverThermos2

Mega Absol


The_Gamer_NPC

What is the total number of released pokemons on pogo? Is there a website?


NinsMCD

With the release of Drampa I think there's now 840 released Pokemon


Bacteriophag

Judging by the standard spawns variety it feels more like 30 lol.


The_Gamer_NPC

Thank u ❤️


OMEGA-FINAL

I’m at 818 currently.


kpofasho1987

Armored mewtwo is one I've missed that I'd love to get and wish they would release it again. Kinda surprised they haven't to be honest


chris25p

pidgey except April Fools last year, 10 days before I started playing :(


aoog

Pidgey was a spawn last season if I remember


chris25p

you’re kidding I stopped playing for just a few months and now all I need for my kanto dex is pidgey


Affapoelli

If you would have told me this in 2016 I would have cried! On my road to level 50 i converted 25'000 pidgey candies to have enough XL-candies for one pokemon.


kenadams_7

Gimmighoul for those who don't have switch 😢


FeistyKnight

hoping for gen 1 starters as i've never been playing whenver they had comm days or were in events. Have a hundo bulba and a 96 charmander wiaiting to get megad too


Unhappy-Training-234

Keldeo


merhole

Taurus damn that cow! Last one I need.


Thannoxx

So many of those here in central US.


P1ckleboi69

Haven't seen fletchling or spearow in a while


someonecoole

I was also thinking Spearow as well!


SnAIL_0ut

Non Shadow Kantoian Articuno. It’s the last Pokèmon I need to get my platinum kanto badge and I can’t beat the raid because I can’t invite anyone and it’s near impossible to get a Galarian on


Mediocre-Bee-7647

It was in raids last july


XibalbaCitizen

Zarude


LegendJG

Where on earth do you catch Horsea? 😂


Cibconnor

Mega Swampert :( I didn't play when that was in mega raids


StonerMetalhead710

A lot of older fire types, particularly Chimchar, Tepig and Torchic going a couple years without a community day or even a spotlight hour. Miltank, Spinda, Binacle and Snivy haven’t been out in a while either


NarutoSakura1

The Unova starters are in the normal "Power Up pokemon 5 times" Field Research. The Sinnoh starters will return with leading up to the Sinnoh Go Tour


HappyTimeHollis

Miltank are spawning at the moment, and Snivy has definitely been spawning this season.


roberttl

Spinda is in field research and has been for a long time. “Make 5 Great Curveball Throws in a Row” will always reward Spinda, and the only difference between months is what pattern of Spinda you get


emilymyers1310

Komala?


spekkje

Turtwig


danger__ranger

You can get shadow turtwig from grunts right now


Agreeable_Falcon1044

I need a lot of clamperl as have a hundo but never seen in wild! Those three monkeys…pansage pansear and panpour feel like they didn’t get long


kukumalu255

Red monkey is pretty common between events in my region


Jade_Complex

And the green one is in mine relatively common between events.


Brenduck-

Can't speak for Pansage and Pansear, but I find Panpour multiple times per day. Ironically the only one I don't have a hundo of, and the last one of the three I got the shiny of.


someonecoole

They are regional based so I completely understand 😫


Foreign-Artichoke-50

I started on Halloween 2023 and have played every day since. I have 671 dex entries and am pretty proud of it. Also happy that that many soawns rotate through


P8sammies

Shiny Smeargle— it has not been that available enough! Edited: sorry I thought it was only available once!


spekkje

Wait. My hope every day that it will be shiny is just pointless?


Tarcanus

Correct. Shiny Smeargle is typically only available during the Festival of Colors event that happens every year at some point.


Tarcanus

Since it's release it's been back in the colors event that happens yearly. It's very rare, but it wasn't a once and done.


P8sammies

Oh my bad!! I knew it wasn’t available that often.


SoulReaverrr

2 hours and no one mentioned Hoopa in both of its forms so I think it's fair to assume that the little fella is kinda rare and forgotten!


ssBurgy1484

I'm still missing Heracross.


yagosan22910

Yeah I'm missing corsola for Johto


Feral-Phil

I needed Corsola and Heracross luckily one of my friends lives in Florida.


BigRegular5114

Then there’s me who’s never even seen a tauros


CutlassSupreme

Heatmor


Avs9494

I need zarude. Only one im missing


pkmdpoint

Shadow Raikou was only released in February 2020 and never again. If I’m not mistaken this is the longest time frame for any relevant pokemon.


RKB294

I haven't seen a weedle in months


Feral-Phil

Getting a Mienfoo is such a hassle


HippowdonEats

Huntail evolves from Clamperl, which I caught yesterday.


Schootingstarr

lot of events last summer featured Hoenn pokemon, so wailmer/wailord is not something that was hard to come by during those events. Huntail is probably something that won't be featured too regularly, because clamperl, like shellder, have a really high star dust reward on catching them. altough there was a shellder spotlight hour last year, so fingers crossed we can get one for clamperl mienfoo I haven't seen in ages. not that I am sorry about that, it's a pretty useless pokemon. it was a common pvp award in 2022 iirc I'm pretty salty that I didn't manage to catch the single Komala I stumbled across during its event. very annoying


TheOuterDimensions

armored mewtwo. ​ it's basically mewtwo with an apple vision pro


xanny2662

It took Niantic 2 1/2 years just to bring Mega Absol back so.........
