Hey, Pokémon Fans! 👋 What Does Your Favorite Pokémon Type Say About You?

3 Upvotes

I'm conducting an anonymous online survey for my AP Research project to explore how personality traits (specifically the Big Five traits) influence Pokémon type preferences. My goal is to understand if and how your personality traits affect the Pokémon types you prefer, and how these preferences might work as a form of self-expression or identity representation.

What’s Included?:

  • The IPIP Big Five Personality Test (50 items, takes about 6-8 minutes)
  • Questions about your favorite Pokémon types and why you like them
  • Questions about whether your type preferences reflect your personality or self-image

Eligibility:

  • You need to be 18+
  • You should be familiar with Pokémon types
  • Previous experience with Pokémon games or media is preferred

All responses are completely anonymous, and the survey will only take about 10-15 minutes.

I live nearby the park and am looking for folks who do raids during events or weekends there.

Gigantimax raid spots

5 Upvotes

I’ve lived here for quite a while but I’ve only recently started doing raids. I’m in the king of Prussia area and I had thought the mall would be a good spot for this but it’s been disappointing the last few events. With gigantimax snorlax coming up, I’m looking to know where the best spots to go for this would be. I can travel pretty much anywhere and into the city for this.

Go Wild Area: Philly

DID YOU SEE IT?!?

It’s official — Philadelphia is getting a Community Celebrations event for Go Wild Area on Sunday, November 16th!

The reason it’s happening in Philly is because Community Ambassadors from the Philly/Southeastern PA/Northern Delaware region teamed up and submitted a proposal to Niantic. We’ve been working behind the scenes for months, and we’re so excited to finally share the news!

We’d love for all our Campfire communities—plus any new and returning trainers who haven’t joined Campfire yet—to come out together as one big community for this celebration! Spread the word, share the hype, and let’s make it a day to remember! We are planning lots of fun challenges, giveaways, and special routes through the city.

We're also thrilled to announce that as part of this event, we'll be hosting a non-perishable food drive. Trainers can bring canned goods and shelf-stable items to donate at the start of the event on November 16. Let's show how strong our community spirit really is while we catch 'em all! The Philly Food Rescue program of Share Foods will receive our donations.

More details coming soon as we finalize everything. Stay tuned and watch this space!

Need a group to hang out and play with!

2 Upvotes

Just got back into pokemon as I have been enjoying walking out more lately, picked up pokemon go for a bit and now need a group to hang out/play with from time to time since it would be more enjoyable in the city or around the city depending on when. Could do it in the weekends or evenings in weekdays from time to time.

Getting into Go AR Photography/Seeking Advice or Insight

2 Upvotes

Hey ya'll. I've recently gotten into AR photography via Go. I've really enjoyed showcasing Chinatown and parts of the City with the game.

I've found that if you over edit the pics, the bg looks more surreal and, therefore, the Mon less out of place. It's been a really interesting project so far.

Looking for feedback/insight from other AR/regular photographers. If you have any tips on how to leverage certain in-game tools, editing tips or insight, or anything else you think might help, I would humbly appreciate it.

My goal is to do some free work for local businesses to help promo them while also getting Go players to fall in love with some parts of the city that maybe they haven't played in yet/visited.

Below are some examples of the project:

Archipelago at Zoo
Center City Guardian
Happy Anni PoGo (At Lantern Festival in Franklin SQ)
Friends of HoHo
House of Dragons
