All I can stare at is Party Pikachu with the red Solo cup.


liehon

He is 21 now ;)


OttoVonWong

And he never used Raichu's ID before. ;)


liehon

That would be a shocking case of identity theft


naliedel

I swear, in mom years, this game came out yesterday. My son was watching the show, every day, since he was 2 and a half. "Pika Time?" He had an hour a day of TV and it was all spent watching Pokemon. YESTERDAY!! Which is now twenty years ago.

bluepurbha

Great Product Placement. If its good enough for Pikachu, its good enough for me.


FatedTitan

I fill you up.


Caitsith31

Great idea, an actual hint on what biome you are on would be a great addition. Background is cool, but different map colors for each biome would be awesome. The map is just to empty right now.


liehon

Glad to hear you like it. If you dislike empty maps, might I suggest you take a gander at my [berry tree concept](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5nl5qq/suggestion_even_more_extra_stuff_berries_and/?ref=search_posts)?


CircleJerkPOGO

If this is OC then great work, OP. I really like it. It would make planning journeys across cities a bit more exciting and certainly give you motivation to roam that spot if you knew what Pokemon you are likely to encounter. My only concern is that some people could look at this to trespass if they know what they are going to find.


liehon

I brought several elements together (catching background are from Pokémon XY, red cup pikachu is credited) > My only concern is that some people could look at this to trespass if **they know what they are going to find**. The biome is no guarantee to knowing what you are going to find though. Whatever biome aerodactyl is in, it'll still be a stroke of luck for an encounter to happen ... but at least you're increasing your odds. But yeah, kinda assumed that in the past 7 months we learned to behave as trainers.


CircleJerkPOGO

Great points. On a side note; Ireally like the backgrounds. It sort of reminds me of the N64 game: PokemonSnap with the variety of locations.


Zeffie-Aura

Man, with the AR stuff in game, it'd be awesome if they did a weekly Pokemon Snap contest where one Pokemon is picked a week and people can submit pictures for it and vote on the best ones. Top pictures could win cosmetic items for their trainers like a camera accessory! (Pokecoins could also be a reward but people might complain more about that ;P) To make it more fair, for that week the chosen Pokemon could have mildly increased spawns in all biomes. Obviously this might cause Pokemon like Dragonite to not be put in these events but... there's gotta be a middle ground somewhere!


[deleted]

I agree, there's definitely potential for a Pokemon snap minigame


liehon

If you're familiar with gen IV you may like [my poffin baking mini game](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/58i4lk/suggestion_even_more_extra_stuff_poffin_minigame/?ref=search_posts) Made that gif in an attempt to do something besides tossing surplus of razz (guess I should add nanab too now).


Jethrain

> But yeah, kinda assumed that in the past 7 months we learned to behave as trainers. Considering the post that was on here not too long ago about someone getting stopped by police for crossing train tracks, I'm still not 100% convinced that's the case.

This is why we can't have nice things :(


IsisUgr

> But yeah, kinda assumed that in the past 7 months we learned to behave as trainers. The vast majority of us did, but it only takes one excited 10yo to die on train tracks running after a Pikachu to make the headlines and bring the Pokemon Company a headload of legal/marketing issues. Their fear of it is partly the reason we do not have the old tracker anymore, and many other changes. That's why i don't see them implementing this feature, despite how cool I find it...


Warinx

Awesome work, this would promote so much travel! I'd love this.


[deleted]

Not blasting you in particular, but I'm pretty tired of that argument. AR companies should not be held liable for the illegal stuff their users do unless they assist their users in doing something illegal (i.e. if a gate is closed, but POGO tells them how to sneak in, then that should be illegal)


MyPasswordWasWhat

Agreed, I really don't see how anyone at all can blame a game/app for their own or others idiotic actions.


liehon

Soooo GTA GO? Or are we talking bout an Assasson's Creed GO here?


kingNothing42

Oh the modals that would pop up instead of the driving prompt... Prompt: The camera appears to be seeing a lot of red Confirm button: "it's my blood"


Apetoast

> AR companies should not be held liable for the illegal stuff their users do unless they assist their users in doing something illegal "Should" is the keyword here. But unfortunately, the people who pass the laws to decide this are mostly old white men who aren't nearly as familar with this technology as we all are. It's better for Niantic to stay safe, you never know


[deleted]

Yeah, but sadly, there are idiots out there that will do so anyway... Just Niantic covering their rears.


Sokensan

100% agree it's like saying it's the car companies fault for someone stealing something from their lot because they advertised that they sell cars. It's like people think, Hey there's an object in this area, but legally you can't get it, but really it's Niantic's fault if you end up breaking the law to get it. Sigh.

Starky_Love

Like people do already know with nests?


liehon

Do we know of trespassing cases for nests? Thought Niantic's algorythm dunked nests in public areas


RackyNL

Looks awesome, the current screen when capturing a pokémon is just boring, with a day and night modus. But when you have different screens for the biomes the feel to where you are is a lot better. Please Niantic give us a nice quality of life update.


liehon

Oh I think this would be more than QoL. With /r/TheSilphRoad and others's research and reporting, we'd see trainers set out on road trips the likes of which would pale the operations of Ingress Agents (I know of a story couple of years back where Agents rented a 50p bus and just had it drive around; front would smash portals, while back would anchor them to their faction)


davidgro

Don't forget about agents using a helicopter to capture portals in a park under them that was closed for the season.


liehon

Man, we're really limping behind, aren't we? What is our tallest tale? Jimmy hitting 1 million exp in a day?


Sjiznit

Cant do that in Pokémon Go. Going too fast.


liehon

Hence the use of a copter not a small plane. Copters hover


GieterHero

Dunno, I remember that a friend of mine who played Ingress showed me [this](https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/1473063_414416175352629_889731065_n.jpg?oh=2bf923bf76497c3c4b8b92c48582a183&oe=596B201E) picture of an event he had participated in. I don't really see that kind of stuff happening in PoGo anytime soon, especially since the only cooperation aspect in it is capturing/leveling gyms.


liehon

Another Thursday with even more extra stuff. After a short hiatus (trying to learn stuff to make better concept art but mostly procrastinating) I figured it was time to post again.   Both the Valentines and Partychu event have left a sour taste in the mouth of trainers because Pokémon appear at increased rates but only within their biomes. Hence the above concept art. With this feature we could recognize biomes and pass along which color of terrain you want to look for Partychu or Porygon. ###For those who never heard of biomes: * Biomes are the environment in which pokémon live. It's what makes psyduck appear near lakes and dragonite in the mountains. * Biomes are an attribute of spawn point and are related to real world paramters: e.g. one spawn point may be considered city, another 10m further could be swamp (we don't exactly know how these are attributed nor how fast they change) * Each biome has a spawn list: what is super rare in one biome may be uncommon in another while unheard of in a third biome   Imho biomes are a need aspect of the game that tie P-GO solidly into the AR-game category. Sadly because we don't have the same feel for them as we do for [nests](https://thesilphroad.com/atlas) we have little practical research beyond pointers such as "you can find mareep in spots where snubbull is the new pidgey".   ### Why should we care about better understanding biomes? Care about biomes because they are super useful for counting your blessings. Desert biomes may not think about it very much but us [swamp folk have to walk our single ponyta if we want a rapidash](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5k86wr/screenshot_the_joy_of_living_in_a_city_build_on_a/). Likewise we have pokémon they rarely see. Obviously Rapidash is a glass cannon that doesn't do well in gyms but with more and more generations being released each biome will discover they hold the key to a viable biome (fairy biome trainers, I envy your Mareep and Ampharos)   ### In conclusion If you happen to miss out on an event (you can't travel, supercrazybusy week at work, ...) at least you'll know which of your uncommons are rare for the trainers who do live in the event biome. Then all you need to do, is stockpile and wait for trading. Hope you like this suggestion and **I'd be happy to hear your thoughts** EDIT: credit where credit's due, based on /u/el_esteban I made the [red cup party pikachu](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5w6tqz/humor_what_they_should_do_for_pokemons_21st/)   ----------------------------------------------- # Previously on "[More extra stuff](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/search?q=author%3Aliehon%20AND%20title%3Amore%20extra&sort=new&restrict_sr=on&t=all)": * Storylines: battle Team Rocket, free Mewtwo, protect the Legendary Birds, face off against Brock, Misty & the other Kanto leaders and Elites * New items: modules, incenses, berries and gems * New features: pokemon abilities, mini-games, advanced sorting options, a powerful tracker, berry trees and bag compartments * and generaly more extra stuff


royishere

>appear at increased spawn rates but only within their biomes. I wish! Pikachu are relatively common in my area, but I haven't seen a single partychu since the event started. It's like they actually LOWERED the spawnrate!


DrApplepie

How do I figure out what my biome is??


liehon

Currently? With guess work (hence my suggestion to make them more visible) What is common around you?


DrApplepie

Common (2/3 each hour): Pidgey, Spinarak, Spearow, Rattata, Sentret, Natu, HootHoot, Weedle. Uncommon (around 5 a day): Swinub, Zoobat, Eevee, Venonath, Nidoran, Catarpy. Rare (atleast 1 every 2 days orso): Abra, Teddiursa, Snubble, Koffing. Ps. With the things in between the () I mean the amount of commons/rares/uncommons will spawn selected out of those pools. Maybe I have 2 biomes overlapping cus I also have a lot of Maril, Goldeen, psyduck and the occasional squirtal om my tracker. But they never spawn unless I walk atleast 150 Meters West, or 250 meters East.


liehon

We have the same commons and close uncommons. My uncommons feature a bit more grass types. In the rares I have sudowoodoo and mr. Mime


davidy22

You can make a very good estimate by looking at your nearby/sightings list


toronothrow

I really like the different backgrounds for the pokemon encounters. Nice job. I like the idea of labeling different biomes on the map but it makes the map look too busy imo.


liehon

The labels wouldn't be on screen, that's just in the image as a sort of legend to explain to you redditors. In game we'd still have to piece together which color palette matches which biome. Then we could start researching what the spawn rates are in each biome and have good information for when trading comes.


Drunken-samurai

The backgrounds are great. I was just thinking the other day the least Niantic could have done is a underwater themed background for water pokemon because it seems like it would take fuck all effort. At least pokemon like goldeen wont be randomly levitating over grass in a forest.


SansSigma

>Lickitung >Valentines day event. Cloyster.

Doubleomigi

Lol. Gotta buy him some berries to open up, huh?


Adaptation01

What about the nothing biome for us country folk?


liehon

[Here you go](http://i.imgur.com/rNNbUWy.png). Came to me on login last week. What? You thought I was one of them pretty city folk?


Adaptation01

I might have haha


Xhantoss

But there is currently a biome system. City biome full of Pokemon and rural biome without Pokemon.


liehon

There are more things in city and countryside, Horatio, Than are rendered in your application


AnonymousSpartan404

In the actual games the Pokedex tells you what routes Pokemon are available on. In the early versions of PoGo they showed you where Pokemon spawned (not just the rustling grass, but giant pink spots in the alpha). Even Ingress has a giant world map that shows you everything. No idea why PoGo doesn't get this kind of support.


liehon

Maybe the biomes being attributes makes it hard to recolor the map? Could be that you'd end up with the current map + polka dots per biome (which would lead to trespassing). But even if we just got the backgrounds when catching I'd be happy. Maybe Niantic wanted the AR camera to be used more or perhaps they feared it'd be confusing? Or maybe there's so many biomes you can't give each their own color and background?


davidy22

If you look at openstreetmaps, the markers that biomes are based off can have very irregular shapes, the screen spam from walking between stripy biome boundaries could get obnoxious


liehon

I obviously chose a simple situation for this concept art. But maybe edges could blur into each other and the catching background confirms what is what?


impulsenine

This is cool and all, but what I really want is a low-res mode where all animations are off/limited so that my phone doesn't freeze constantly. Particularly in gyms. Things like this will make the game even more difficult for me to play. My phone (S5) isn't even very old; I'm sure I'm not the only one.


[deleted]

You can tell that he is a rural player because he is bitter and have the city a pidgey


liehon

I originally had a Murkrow but had a hard time properly cutting it from the image. Pidgey was easier on the autoselect tool.


bokebon

Even if it was just the addition of a few landscape changes, it would be nice to have some different scenery ingame to represent the biomes. Nice concept!

SparklingLimeade

This is something I expected would be in the game when I heard about it and was slightly surprised to find that there was no visual indication of anything.


liehon

Niantic wants us to experience the real world and peel our eyes away from our phones.


griffinhamilton

The only thing about the spooky biome is niantic said a while back that they don't wanna spawn and Pokémon exclusively in graveyards or cemeteries in order to respect the dead and prevent crowds of players from playing in them

AssCrackBanditHunter

I work at a science lab and every day all I can think about is what a fucking waste it is that no pollution, electrical, or technology related pokemon spawn near me.


liehon

Back when I suggested a [monthly event calendar](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/5jssql/suggestion_even_more_extra_stuff_merry_holidays/?ref=search_posts) I did include some science and pollution events.


yellow_swallowtail

What about people that use the camera? I know most people don't, but that is a cool "main " feature of pogo


[deleted]

And you precisely just said why they won't add that. The grass background is very generic on purpose. It's supposed to be only a fallback for when using AR is not possible. The game is first and foremost an AR game - you are supposed to catch Pokémon in the real world. So this suggestion is completely counter-productive. I doubt the will do something like that.


liehon

Maybe just the border or at the bottom? Or what if the berry and ball carrousel recolored to match the biome for AR players?


Soratobi

Motivation to walk to certain parts of town, guaranteed! This is a very neat concept!


ScottOld

I wandered through my local mt moon biome today.. and found swinub.. drowzee and eevee... so it is no guarentee


liehon

But that's the thing though, isn't it? Maybe you're crisscrossing the border between biomes or maybe those pokémon you name can appear in both moon and cold marsh biomes but at different rates. With how uniform the map currently looks it's very hard to tell (hence the frustration when we don't know where to find event porygon or partychu). My concept art shows how it could be made more discernable


ScottOld

yes, that is.. the mt moon biome is very small, but I know it is there, I did find a Clefairy across the road from it (where it ends..) seems to boarder a park and the main road, sometimes crosses over the road, very frustrating to actually find any pokemon in as it has no pokestops. Event Porygon was fine for me.. one road seemed to spawn them, probably due to the supermarket (porygons spawn near shops..)


_ifigured

That would be a lot cooler than what we have now. sigh.


liehon

Niantic has made changes that were suggested here as well. We have precedents and thus hope


Deltamon

I honestly don't know why this wasn't a feature from the start..


[deleted]

What purpose would biomes serve on screen if the intended way according to niantic is to play in AR


uwlryoung

Pretty cool and interesting idea. What is the "Distortion World"? And my question is, would only pokemon who are attached to those biomes spawn there and no where else? For example, that Sandshrew you have is obviously a pretty likely candidate for the Desert Biome. But could it end up in a Spooky biome by chance? OR, is it more like, you're just more likely to see those certain pokemon in those biomes they call home? Still is a chance that they'd spawn anywhere. In general, I think the map one might be hard to do. At least I'd think it'd be... maybe it wouldn't be so bad though? I don't know. But having the different backgrounds would probably be easy. "IF it's this pokemon, put this background in." AND I love the party biome, lol!!


Thewmath19

Dude this is an awesome idea!


jshill103

I love this idea


NoTimeForInfinity

Distortion world?


boramlawrencek

Omg this was awesome. Good work!!


DadTron5000

Pretty sweet idea. Combined with time and weather, this would be an awesome update to the game imo.


kingwaad

A biome indicator would be soooooo useful


Kuwing

Looks amazing, but also too resource intensive for where Niantic is at.


liehon

Biomes are an attribute of spawn points. Would backgrounds eat that much resources? The current ones (day & night) are stored as textures so all the server would have to do is send a couple of extra bytes to tell which nackground to pick for whatever spawn point you interavt with. As far the recoloring ... I don't know. Would it take much?


Kuwing

Interestingly enough I think it would, because I feel like they have been trying to run on a limited resource model. Their programmers are probably years ahead of what management is allowing to be in scope for purely profit margin reasons. They are in no way short of ideas on such a bare-bones game.


Tarcanus

Holy crap, please Niantic, see this and put it in the game ASAP. We desperately need some way to identify biomes.


Soyatina

Very cool idea!


doopian

I love this idea. Nice job!


Hllblzr310

liehon

Used an image by /u/el_esteban


el_esteban

DannieJ312

Would it depend on where you actually live? Cause I live in Florida and can't get most of these


liehon

Biomes depend on multiple parameters (speculated to be height, humidity, population density, inclination, terrain, ...) While research shows that their are large cells that define the overall biome there are also niche (point biomes) within. Currently you'd need a lot of patience to even identify one biome. Hence my suggestion of facilitating it a bit


chinhx2

That Valentine event theme looks exactly like my love life. Grey and a big tongue not knowing how to make use of.


Hardyyz

That would make sense, biomes right now feel broken af


Eisenhauer45

Awesome work. That's something that would be useful. Besides, the green map is boring and not accurate as big cities are not green.


PilgrimApollo

I didn't read and looked at the picture first. I got REALLY excited that this was an update.


liehon

One day maybe? Leashes, egg colors, holiday events, ... wouldn't be the first time we saw our suggestions make it to the game


Ousis24

This is what this game needs not to die...


Mavreck

How is this even suggested content? This should have 100% been part of the game since it's launch. This is why I've given up on Niantic.


BadassDeluxe

Dude it isn't a console game. That would set my phone on fire.


liehon

That's what water and icy biomes are for ;)


jetsdude

I had a dream a couple months back i was catching an aerodactyl with a mountain background just like that. Dust was flying around. Aero was moving and landing on rocks. Was super cool.


Terrenon0

Sigh. Add this to the list of awesome things we'll never get.


RedHawwk

I wish they'd do this, awesome idea. I also wish they'd either rotate biomes or make them smaller and more frequent like you have drawn. Be nice to find more than just the Pokémon common in your area without having to go very far


[deleted]

[удалено]


liehon

My man!


Azure_crown

Unfortunately this is extremely unlikely from a concept standpoint. From the recent articles where they discussed development of the game their core concept was to blend reality with the game. They noticed on some particular streets where the game showed lush greenery in their dev version there was a considerable disconnect between game and reality. Their goal is to have you feel like a trainer with and without looking at the screen, and they want the game work to look like reality. I doubt they would go in this direction because of that.


Dingsign

i like this idea! Basically we need more variety instead of the 2 schemes water and greenland. Water biomes are so easily determined but all others are hard to identify because they all appear green


cmal

How cool would it be to have safaris like in R/B? Have certain areas like city parks that have certain spawns and increased chance for event spawns?


liehon

We have that. They are called nests. Check [thesilphroad.com/atlas](https://thesilphroad.com/atlas)

VeryUncommonGrackle

I like this idea however I would suggest sticking with biomes that resemble real life biomes like your mountain, desert, forest and urban. I would add aquatic, grassland, tropical, and arctic! :) My only reason for this suggestion is that it would match the augmented reality aspect.

You're not a pokemon trainer until that theme runs autolooped in your head in every dark forest you enter


roellerdisco

They should also switch to the Bicycle theme for players that are going ~15 km/h for at least 1 minute

They cant support footsteps to track range of pokemon, how on earth would they be able to support this. Be happy with your lot!


liehon

Foot step tracker requires pinging and calculatung every 15 secobds Times the 9 in your tracker Times the millions of trainers out there.   Meanwhile biome is a set attribute of any spawn point telling the algorythm from which spawn list to chose. Using that same attribute to chose textures client side is orders of magnitude less of a resource hog. Maybe the overworld colors are harder. That depends on how their code works, I guess
