Pokémon GO (PoGO) players in
the Aloha State finally received the latest app update this weekend. This version includes the “Capture
Location” of each Pokémon, however, it is a statistical-related
feature would probably benefit those players interested in seeing if Tauros can
truly be found in Paradise.
The United States government approved statehood for Hawaii on August 21, 1959. Does this mean Hawaii is included on the North American server for Niantic Labs’ PoGO app? I know players in the 50th State would rather be a part of Asia’s region-exclusive and catch Farfetch’d. John Hanke, for the love of all that is Pokémon GO, please let your fans what region-exclusive Pokémon can be caught in Hawaii.

When the app first launched,
some players could pull up a map which exhibited the exact location of each Pokémon catch. I cannot say that I would ever miss it because I never had that feature. I still do not think it is necessary because it does not alter the mechanics of gameplay. However, the developers
insist on trying to adding this feature that continue to fail. Of all the places in Hawaii, Waikiki does not
show up! Atlantis…Cambodia…El
Dorado…these are a few fabled places that enticed generations of explorers
around the world. These lost cities led many on a fruitless trek.
I caught a handful of Pokémon in the Lost City of Waikiki on September 23rd. Apparently, the PoGO GPS is unable to locate this district! It is supposed to say: "Honolulu, Hawaii, United States." As you can see in the screenshots of the information statistic screens, the city and state are missing for these Pokémon caught in Wakiki.
Will people say that the Augmented Reality (AR) photos of these Pokémon be considered inconclusive? Hopefully, the ambitious developers at Niantic Labs will get this app working right so that I can prove my catches are real. Until then, the rest of Hawaii will continue to wait impatiently for the enhanced “Sightings” feature [that was released back in August for a trial-run in San Francisco] so that we may find that mythical North American Tauros.

Lately I've been hearing rumors that the silhouette of Tauros is popping up on "sightings" all around Oahu. However no one has yet to prove that it can actually spawn in Hawaii. Not sure if everyone is telling the truth or if they're trolling people. But wouldn't it be nice if we were actuallu included in on this regional pokemon?! Or at the very least, help us stop the quessing game and let us know if we can catch it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on my latest entry. I totally agree with you. I just Tweeted John Hanke...asking him to please let us know. Hopefully, I can write about it soon. Aloha, Friend!

ReplyDeleteI haven't been playing, but Tauros should spawn because we're part of the US. He may be out now because of that new update! Let's hope!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Cherry Munchkin! I am with you! I certainly hope the new updates includes us in one of the regions!
DeleteI don't get the draw to have Tauros, but Farfetch’d that would be awesome! He is my favorite from when I was a kid.
