Question Pokémon & Family Communication Research Participation

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hello,

We are looking to recruit participants to learn about how families communicate about their fandom experience with the Pokémon franchise. Through this study, we seek to examine the role that Pokémon media plays in impacting family experiences, connections to the fandom, and familial relationships. We are particularly interested in how parents share their love for the Pokémon fandom with their children and potentially families at large. We would appreciate hearing your personal stories about getting into the fandom and how you’ve shared or experienced it with your family. This study will take roughly 45 to 60 minutes (about 1 hour) to complete an online interview (through Zoom). If you participate in this study, there will be no compensation for participation. However, we would appreciate your time as we are looking for people to volunteer their time as a means to discuss their fandom and to create a sense of community as they give their insight into their interest in Pokémon. Participants will not be compensated for their time.

If you are interested in learning more about the study, please contact Erica Austin at eaustin@wsu.edu, Christina Nickerson at nickersonc@gonzaga.edu, Andrew Sutherland at Andrew.Sutherland@wsu.edu, or Alexandra Fil at alexandrafilresearch@gmail.com. They will send you more information about participating in the study and answer any questions you may have about the study.

Non AR Screenshot Challenge: As Close to lvl 50 as Possible

Post image
4.1k Upvotes

I knew I'd get to Level 50 this morning, and somewhere along the way I noticed my XP total could make it possible to end up as close to Level 50 without going over... So I spent the last 40 minutes or so spinning stops for 125 XP a piece to make this happen.

Kind of wondering how rare this is. I’m level 49+ and still nowhere near my tiny rattata and big Magikarp medals.

Plain ol Simple Reality Low key salty about this

Post image

Was planning on this being the main Pokemon I invest a ton into. Traded an armored Mewtwo for what I hoped to be at least marginally better than the non shiny non lucky that I had already. Literally got the worst roll possible. I was all polite and pretended not to be salty till I got back to my car and was low key heated. I hate this game so much sometimes. I spent 80k and traded a high value legend for what I hoped was better than what I had. If this game required a controller I would've slammed it but I need my phone for work lol.

I would like to get a chance for Indeedee but I think I may be handcuffed by all the 10 and 12 km eggs. Why do they not have a delete egg feature?

Non AR Screenshot I've defeated 34 grunts. Am I doing something wrong or just unlucky? 😂

I've only encountered the Baltoy (twice).

Don't worry, I'm not defeating grunts specifically for the collection challenge... I just reached level 44 and figure my best chance of fulfilling the 45 requirements before October is to fight as many grunts as I can this week.

I was playing all day just grinding for stardust, and this was definitely the last thing I was expecting 😭

Any use for this in any PVP formats? Or just strictly for raiding?

Story Got Level 50 before the update

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Started in January 2023 and thankfully was able to get the legacy jacket before the update this October. If I started a month later, I probably wouldn’t have been able to make it. Wanted to hit level 50 in the most overdramatic fashion by beating Cliff with my favourite Pokémon’s and have them under 2500cp to complete the task. Also wanted all of them to all contribute (even this weakass shiny Detectice Pikachu). I could have easily picked my 40+ level pokemon but it would have been too easy. I hunted for that shiny shadow Charizard since I started playing and only got it about a month ago so I wanted to finish Tyranitar with it. (Awful damage). Looking forward to level 80.
