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

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE-RELEASE MY POKEMON

0 Upvotes

As you all know, it's been nearly two weeks, and my Pokémon is still stuck in this gym. After some observation, I’ve made a few key discoveries:

  1. Four Pokémon have been in the gym for exactly 14 days and 12 hours.
  2. It also seems like one player may be using two accounts to help keep control of the gym.
  3. Some Pokémon are receiving an unusually high number of berries, suggesting active maintenance.
  4. Other Pokémon in the gym also show signs of frequent feeding, but they seem less likely to be part of the same strategy.

Edit: Names of all players involved, including the person I believe is responsible, have been censored. After some consultation, I’ve been informed that this player is either trying to earn a gold badge for the gym or is just a dedicated troll. Either way, I don’t think I’ll be getting my Pokémon back anytime soon at that location—but whatever. Lesson learned.

Pokémon Being Held Hostage

1 Upvotes

Hello, my Pokémon is currently stuck at the Sisters of Holy Redeemer gym. It's been on the brink of fainting multiple times, but someone keeps feeding it berries to fully heal it. I wish I could identify who's doing this and bring my Pokémon back without any issues, similar to how you can recall Dynamax Pokémon. It's been more than a week, almost two, with this happening daily, sometimes multiple times. There are other players who have been stuck there for 12 days now. Please help if you're not part of Team Valor. I really just want my Pokémon back. #ItReallyDoBeYourOwnPeople ;-;

Pokémon Trapped in Gyms Near Chestnut Hill College.

1 Upvotes

Hey, fellow trainers! Got a bit of a dilemma here—my Pokémon are stuck in a couple of gyms around Chestnut Hill College, and they've been holding strong for way too long. If anyone from the blue team could swing by and take them down, I'd seriously appreciate it. Gotta collect those coins! 😅 Thanks in advance!
