Hahaha I made a team 3 pokemons with the lowest CP just to get over it. It’s at least good you don’t have to win the battles.

I didn’t even get Miltank on my first set! It was a Poliwag!!

I’m so confused about this event.
Is it 11 to 2? The daily tasks is 24h long.
Is it only miltank for premium passes?
(I still get only miltank with the free sets.)
Does the shiny rate stay increased after 2pm?

For a start, i got two Shiny miltanks with one at 95% pvp IV

Can someone tell me why completing battles doesn’t count towards the task? Only winning does. Does leaving instantly doesn’t work?
Edit: apparently that’s the case. You can’t just instantly leave. I just whipped my team of shiny bidoof, bibrael and starter charmander

I almost never battle but I saw the quest today and did the 10 battles… Got the dumb miltank at first I was hype but then I was like, outside of Pokemon TCG what use do I HAVE for a Miltank ???

I got a shiny. So there’s that, at least.

I instantly got flashbacks to heartgold and Whitney. Shiny or not you can count me out of this one

It’s the elite charge that’s probably the main incentive for a lot of players.

I actually got my first legendary last night from GBL since Cresselia and I play all the time.
yummiapples

Now imagine *my* disappointment when not only I encountered Miltank, but it is my first “perfect” pokemon.

Just got two shiny miltanks so wasn’t all bad

Out of 4 encounters I got 3 shinys.

Miltank is an auto transfer for me.

I like all three of my 50% IV Miltanks I turned into Candy today.

First encounter: Miltank
Second encounter Shiny Miltank
And just like that, I no longer have a reason to play GBL 🤷♂️

Stupid me not knowing this used a premium battle pass and won 5 straight, only to get 5 fuckin Milltanks as a reward, and o BTW they all have terrible IVs. Wtf
MrZorx75
Why don’t they say “ready to battle? You’ll get 4x more stardust than normal”? That’s such a good incentive especially compared with M I L T A N K

“Hey, we got a research for Elite Charged TM, a very valuable item!”
Niantic: ❌❌❌
“Hey, big titties cow which is completely useless is in the rewards, so you now have 0% chance for legendary instead of 1%”
Niantic: ✅✅✅

I’m on like number 4 and I’m so fucking confused

The exp is not that bad, and you don’t have to win the battles either, so you can knock it out quickly with 10 CO Pokémon. For the super effective move one, that can actually be a battle against another trainer, or team rocket, or even a gym (have not tested that one). It’s easy exp. Miltank was very disappointing as a reward

I thought the exact same thing when I got the notif 😂

Spent like 5 hours this morning battling and just kept on getting normal ones over and over even with premium passes so I eventually gave up. (21 normal cows)
Just received this post as a notification and decided I would give it one more shot at 7:54pm, only won one single match of the (normal) set and got the blue cow!
Thanks for the good luck and alert OP! 👍

Exactly the same way rewards based on win streaks (and use of a match maker to average 50 percent) is supposed motivate…

I got a 0 star wingull as a battle reward today. Wasn’t expecting a wingull. Extra wasn’t expecting a 0 star. I didn’t know that was possible.
Buzzcowed
The 1/10 shiny rate is. I now have 5 blue cows from 29 wins. Pretty satisfying if you ask me. But im a cow
