Anyone know if someone's mined all the research tasks needed for Jirachi yet?
Lynx and Paint
I'd like to plan ahead, especially if it's candy-intense things like Magikarp or Feebas or such...
Lynx and Paint
also general call for friends for that first task, but I think I've already got everyone friended here...
Lynx and Paint
BUT IF NOT HMU, NEED NEW FRIENDS
Lynx and Paint
otherwise I'll start asking on tumblr; I've already got 53 friends so I worry about exhausting my resources every time the "make new friends" task comes up...
Rizu
IIRC I don't think I added you? And even if I did, unfriending and re-adding still works
Mundanite
one sec!
Lynx and Paint
oh neat!

3 EXCELLENT CURVEBALL THROWS JEEBUS
Lynx and Paint
that one is gonna slaughter me...
Rizu
a-at least they're not in a row
Lynx and Paint
in a row I don't think I could ever do
Revenge Guac
Rizu
Mew had the excellent curveball BS too IIRC
Lynx and Paint
Rizu
: and okay, sent invite!
Lynx and Paint
yeah but even with Mew and Celebi it was just ONE excellent curveball
Revenge Guac
Oh fffff someone beat me to it |Db
Lynx and Paint
three??
Rizu
accepted!
Lynx and Paint
yaay!

Lynx and Paint
sweet!
Lynx and Paint
and got it, just need one more friend!
Rizu
same here re: just one more
Lynx and Paint
looking at the rest of these tasks: three great throws in a row is annoying but doable; I usually skip that research because it's too hard for me when commuting...
Lynx and Paint
win 5 raids: oof. Gonna have to let Greg know I'm interested in coming on raids with him once I'm back at work
Rizu
for me it's any type of curveball in a row I tend to skip, great throws are actually relatively easy for me to cheese with the right pokemon
Lynx and Paint
yeah, it's the curveballs that are super hard for me
Lynx and Paint
I usually have to turn on the phone cam and angle them right
Lynx and Paint
or else it's gotta be something with a huge strike zone, like a legendary
Rizu
huh, I never have AR on... I might have to try that at some point.
Rizu
lol yeah legendaries are a good one, rattatas too
Lynx and Paint
nod
Lynx and Paint
so all this stuff is doable, just might take awhile (50 psychic/steel types in particular...) but oof that 3 excellent curveballs is what's gonna kill me
Rizu
on the pluses, that one is near the end so once you do that you'll likely get your chance at Jirachi
Lynx and Paint
oh yeah, if it's like the Mew and Celebi encounters then Jirachi is the reward for finishing the sixth set
Lyra + a Player
interesting, the LeekDuck graphic says it's 3 excellent curveballs in a row and the other one says just 3 excellent curveballs
Rizu
... I hope it's not in a row, not a lot of people are going to be able to do that
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
uggggh
𝔪𝔢𝔪𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔬💀𝔪𝔬𝔯𝔞𝔶
in a row would be REALLY hard
Lynx and Paint
ohh no
Lynx and Paint
in a row I'd pretty much have to beg Greg to do it for me; he's the only person I know I'm in regular contact with who's practiced enough to make regular curveballs
Lynx and Paint
and even then that'd pretty much have to be against a legendary for the large enough strike zone...
Lynx and Paint
heck even then might not work because your catch rate tends to be best on excellent curveballs?? So you may not even get a chance to do it three times in a row before catching something
Lynx and Paint
whelp, at least I've now finished the first one, so one to round two!
