I really love this game, it's just such a shame when it acts up and buffs and suddenly shuts down and I have to keep opening it. It takes such a long time to open, and continually makes me have to reconnect my account because it fails to log me in. Updating and uninstalling don't seem to do anything to help either. And it's gutting that the routes keep pausing for me so I can never get those research rewards :(

I've had an account since 2016, although I did stop playing for a while as it got boring and very frustrating. Would happily explain more but only got 500 words. Got back in over Covid and found it was better, although once again, I'm starting to get fed up. My shiny encounter seems a lot lower than others. It's become very glitchy. The rewards aren't great. It's always encouraging you to spend to keep up. PVP is fixed, and lots of others cheat. It's a shame as I have really enjoy it mostly.

Good fun, Pomemon is awesome! Don't let network errors cost people hard earnt rewards. If an achieved battle is selected, the instance should be safe. I lost a new pokemon after completing all the requirements, I threw great and excellent shots that didn't count. Then it ran away. Causing me to close the app and lower your rating. Such disappointment 😞 Scanning pokestops is bugged. -1 star... not looking good, think this game isn't for me anymore.
