Pokemon GO adding Facebook account linking and login updates
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
Pokemon GO is in the process of rolling out support for Facebook account linking. Not only will the sign-in process be simpler, but the link also provides more log in options and helps preserve your progress across devices.
Players will be able to link their Trainer profile to your Facebook and Google accounts, and use any of those credentials to access the game. This means that if you currently log in with the Pokemon Trainer Club, you could link your Trainer profile to your Google and Facebook accounts, and then use whichever account you prefer in the future.
Linking profiles to a Google or Facebook account is simple. Just visit the settings and choose the platform you’d like to link.

According to comments stemming from the tweet, the chance of seeing a shiny Luvdisc is pretty high as well. There also seems to be an increased spawn chance for Chansey.
One can only wonder why Niantic decided to send out a bunch of Luvdiscs on February 14… wait, that’s Valentine’s Day. All right, I suppose it’s obvious.

Pokemon GO glitch lets you bypass the catching animation during a Pokemon battle
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
Recently, a new glitch was discovered in Pokemon GO that cuts down on the amount of time it takes to catch a Pokemon. Players have found a way to bypass the catching animation during a Pokemon battle, saving a bit of time in the process.
During a battle, try holding the Poke Ball menu with one hand while attempting to catch the Pokemon with the other. You’ll then need to let go of the Poke Ball menu when the Pokemon starts wriggling around inside the Poke Ball. Next tap the screen to bring up the run away option. After you choose that, you’ll return to the map.
You can see if you managed to catch the Pokemon by looking at your journal. Note that an error message may appear indicating that your catch was successful.
