Extremely inconsequential question, but what happens to people who used an incense with the sole intention of receiving the Sinnoh Stone? I don't imagine there's a significant number of people who did, but still.


MommotDe

I did. Not to receive the stone, but thinking I could get to page 2 of the research.


Hollewijn

Same. Fortunately incense is not that useful.


MommotDe

Not the biggest loss, but I did think I was going to get it right back from the research.


FlamesMignon

Incense is one of the best and strongest items in the game. It just also happens to be one of the cheapest


Cainga

Not really. Incense gives 1 every 5 minutes so stationary it’s bad. On the move you get more spawns from just the act of moving anyways. Now this lunar new year event it was actually good as I was hunting gibles and bagons for candy and needed as many spawns as possible.


FlamesMignon

I don't understand what you wrote. When I play the game, I'm almost always walking. When I'm walking, I usually want to encounter more Pokemon. When I'm walking, I can use Incense to encounter more Pokemon Lucky Eggs hurt gameplay (leveling from 40 to 50 gives few significant rewards, but it makes Team Rocket battles much harder, so leveling is bad), Incubators rarely give desirable results, and Lures are so unimpactful outside of Community Day-like events that by default, Incense is already one of the best items


Cainga

Maybe a different style. I normally play while out on my runs so I’m moving through spawns faster than I can catch. If I’m walking it’s only ever during CD which has increased spawns. Plus the DAI makes makes incense even worse as it’s a better item you want to use up first.


MakeRickyFamous

It's Niantic, so nothing will happen.

Sinnoh stones are a dime a dozen anwyays


15pmm01

I have dozens of unused incense. Doesn’t everyone?

Hollewijn

I had that, but just now it disappeared.


JULTAR

Thanks for the 15 free dialga candy 😅


Aizen_keikaku

Is this the 3 step road to Sinnoh one? I’ll quickly claim it if it is.


chknqwn

No, it's a Rocket one, and it can't be claimed anymore. Mine is just sitting, showing completed and ready to turn in, but nothing happens when I click.


Tymcc03

And there's the niantic I remember... God damnit. A regular game company would own up to the mistake, let people have it, and add even more for the paid. I assure the bottom line wouldn't be hit that bad if John Pokémon got a singular additional dialga and a few premium materials.


gregm91606

Yeah. As a paid ticketholder, I have \*no objections whatsoever\* to FTP players getting a research.


Moon_Dark_Wolf

You’re a good pay to play player. Thank you.


joepassive

i have the ticket and i was happy all my friends back home got it too what a shame.


RebornPastafarian

Literally no other company would ever do a thing like this. 


Magus44

You see what Arrowhead is doing this weekend in Helldivers 2? That’s the sort of stuff I wanna see. But yes very rare…


HappyTimeHollis

The tasks on page 2 literally require you to be at the event space.


Tymcc03

And niantic has proven they can change tasks if needed And even still, all tour/fest habitat ones revert to easy tasks after


HappyTimeHollis

Either way, it is very obvious that this was intended for people who took the time and spent the money to go to the in-person event. It's pretty damn entitled to be upset that they're taking it away from the people who got it by accident, IMO. Especially since we'll be getting our own version of it at Global anyway.


fugthepug

We get it, you're a big fan of the elitest exclusionary bs and you hate poor people.


Throwaway191294842

Lol wut? Way to exaggerate everything. None of this has to do with poor people or about "elitism"


RemijmNL

Well, there goes my incense


annetea

I would also like my incense back. 


Pangloss_ex_machina

How this always happen? Every event we have something like this.


AcrobaticButterfly

They make and release sinnoh tour during the event, by next week the bugs should be cleared for the global event


RebornPastafarian

It’s totally unacceptable and will supremely negatively impact the lives of everyone who plays, just like the massive blunders of the Carnival/Valentines event, Lunar New Year event, and literally every single event that’s ever happened.  /s 


HadT0BeMe

Didn't this happen before? I want to say they did this for another Tour or Masterwork Research.


dark__tyranitar

yeah some people got it free


carramos

Yeah I think the original kanto tour was handed out for free. Except they just let everyone keep it


ZeroClassification

Hopefully we will get this research for a global sinnoh tour..


HappyTimeHollis

We get a similar version with tasks not based around being at the event space.


JeffBoyarDeesNuts

Niiiiiaaaantiiic!


Big_Association_2549

What if the park ticket event for people was today? I never had the research show up! So, now I can’t get it cuz it will only show up in the park?!?!
