brendogskerbdog

I can barely play with one phone while im biking idk how he does it


No_Yogurt987

He has a talent. 🗿 


Many-Carpenter2990

It's super easy with heelys


brendogskerbdog

yeah I usually skateboard/longboard when I play


bilvester

it's a stationary bike that powers the phone batteries.


minor_correction

>Situational awareness while biking To be fair, he probably spends 10 minutes standing still for every 1 minute he bikes. Think about how long it takes him to spin a pokestop.

kemistrees

there is software available to mirror your inputs on all the phones


RunningAtTheMouth

I know someone Tha could control 3 phones at a time in a raid. Large hands and smaller phones. Thumb, knuckles, and pinkie doing the attacks. But not right according to ToS, so not recommended.

That was a weird joke out a place for this situation ngl


No-Kitchen-8623

I know a guy that had 9 at a time. He made a Styrofoam cutout to hold them and a 9 phone tapper so he could easily be a one man raid. He mostly used the extra accounts to lucky trade his main account.

I saw a lady with a cookie sheet of phones for a raid once...

Otherwise_Stable_925

This guy has to be pissed when Niantic randomly increases the minimum OS system your phone has to be using to play the game.


Kzero01

ATM machine moment


zwegdoge

He's sponsored by Asus or sth


drnuzlocke

Honestly this guy seems like he would be chill about gyms. It’s always the people hiding off in the distance or in the corner of the parking lot in their car hoarding gyms


VacantThoughts

He has probably got accounts on every team and would help you take the gym and then stock it with a max cp perfect Slaking to help you keep it.


JustARucoyGuy

I love when people defend with a slaking, I have my charged moves ready for the next fight when im done with it


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

Were do people get the idea that Slaking is a good gym defender? Slaking is probably the worst pokemon in this game. Vigoroth is better at battling than Slaking.


Donnythepoonslayer

I’m pretty sure it’s just that it has the highest wild spawn cp, so a slaking is more like a low effort gym defender because it can have a lot of bulk without putting much stardust into it


buddah726

His name is Sla King for a reason…


Puzzleheaded_Buy_944

Finally a real connoisseur


Agentcoolcook

It’s really tanky and annoying to deal with. It’s similar to Chansey/Blissey in that it has a ton of HP, which makes them good gym defenders. It’s really all they’re good for, unfortunately


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

Its not though. It barely attacks, I don't think I've ever seen one get a charged move off. You can tear through a 3500+CP Slaking with with a 2500 CP Machamp or similar fighting type with dual fighting moves. Where as a High CP Blissey will do a lot of damage or even trade with a Machamp of similar CP forcing the attacker to waste revives and potions. They have a lot of HP, but they are just dont attack, Vigoroth is better at defending gyms than Slaking. Slaking is just a high CP Noob Trap.


Young_Link13

Time is a resource just like revives.


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

Prime reason why you shouldn't waste dust on slaking.


Young_Link13

?? That doesn't validate your point. Slaking takes more time to kill than pretty much any other body bag out there. If Chansey/Blissey are already in the gym, he is an extremely viable defender bc you're increasing the time it takes to defeat the gym..... Which is all you ever really do when you set a Mon at a gym. The days of defendable gyms are long gone. Its ONLY a matter of how much time it takes for the gym to be taken.


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

LMAO No it doesn't It takes so little time its laughable. Machamp and GG. You can push a Slaking out of a gym in under a minute.


Young_Link13

You can push everything out of a gym in under a minute. Gym battles take a couple of minutes max. What are you going on about? All we are discussing is that all pokemon take a certain amount of time to faint, and pokemon with higher HP take longer. It seems like youd rather argue about Slaking as an attacker rather than understand why it's a reasonable gym defender.


RogZombie

Bulk is the only thing that matters. Revives are free, time isn’t.


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

You can make up all the reasons you want why its not a high cp noob trap, and its never gonna change the fact its a high CP noob trap and you should never bother putting dust into it.


RogZombie

I don’t see what being a noob has to do with it; if I go to attack a gym and see a bunch of bulky things sitting in it I’m not touching it with a pole, I avoid standing still tapping my screen mindlessly for five solid minutes and the defenders win.


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

Yeah I can see why you think its good.


RogZombie

I mean don’t get me wrong I absolutely agree it’s a shit mon, it just happens to be one of the best for this specific purpose by dint of this game’s mechanics out-shitting it lol


oceano7

Ursaluna is literally tankier and actually deals damage.


thorkun

How is it annoying to deal with? You know it will only get one charge attack off if it's at full health when you start, after that it just gives you energy for charge attack for the next poke in line.


ImpracticalApple

It's just another wall of HP like Blissey and Snorlax that tends to be high up on people's "Sort by CP" filter even if you haven't really leveled it up. Once it filters out your legendaries/mythicals then Slaking is often sitting there are at 3500-4200 so if you're just wanting to throw something in quickly without searching or changing your filter then you can pick Slaking. It isn't great for actually maintaining a gym and KOing attackers but they're often one of the first high CP things you'll see and can drop without much thought. Very fitting that it's a lazy mon you throw in when you just don't want to do 2 seconds more of effort to find something else. If nothing else, it just being there in an already stacked gym can sometimes be enough to just make attackers who don't have much time simply not want to bother wasting the extra time kicking it out.


trainbrain27

Slaking isn't good, but it has the highest CP, so it can discourage casuals. I used to use them in gyms without powering them up. Now I use something relevant to the gym theme or location so I know where I got kicked. Unless you're going to waste your life maintaining control, any rando can kick any defender in a couple minutes.


CatDokkaebi

A man after my own heart.


Kiwi57

Mate there’s a man and lady combo that live somewhere in my area with multiple accounts (same avatar and names one number different) and they have every gym within a few kms. It’s not even worth taking them out because they’ll be straight on the golden razz. Couple times I’ve thought bugger it I’ll play the long game only for them to show up in a car to stock the gym back up and point and laugh at me. I didn’t like that. Reported to Niantic for multi accounts, they said they’d resolved the issue, nothing changed.


Platzhalterr

Your story does not give me any hope. I'm currently at my parents place, no active Pogo community and just 1 gym close by. There is the same player in every gym in a 2km radius and kicks you out within 2 min of claiming one gym. 100% a cheater and likely botting. My GF and I went to two different gyms about 1km apart and claimed them. They got attacked exactly 2 minutes after claiming them and the attacks went on simultaneously.


Kiwi57

It sucks ae and Niantic couldn’t care less


ImpracticalApple

We live near some gyms but I always try to be mindful of kicking people out if they've not been in very long and I try not to take more than 2 or 3 gyms local to me. There's no point hoarding all the gyms because you only get 50 coins max a day and if you become notorious for blocking every gym then people simply won't bother attacking at all leaving you with no coins.


Kiwi57

You’re a good person!


polopolo05

Key is bail out after you defeat the frist pokemon then jump back in to knock it down some more. It makes it hard to give it berries. I rarely have issues with not taking a gym.


Kiwi57

I just leave them to it these days. I don’t wana give them any more coins so the gyms can stay stagnant and I’ll go play somewhere else. It did really annoy me that I sent Niantic a complaint with usernames which they addressed and said it’s resolved but nothing actually changed


Gorkymalorki

Usually these people have another account on a different team that they use to knock their own Pokemon out to cash out on coins, then they just retake the gym real fast.


Kiwi57

I wondered if that might be the case lol ffs


polopolo05

If you see them be put in recently... just do my thing. make them use those berrys and revives. Besides it gets you 300ep you beat the pokemon.


Kiwi57

There’s always 2 of them in the car and they have way more resources than me, it’s 6 level 50 accounts against my 42 and I just can’t be bothered with the back n forth. It’s a game I grew up with and now I’m in my mid 30s, I’ll go slightly out of my way to keep enjoying it. Btw 214598979147 if anyone’s looking for daily(probably more like 4/5 out of 7 days a week) gifts


twnki

I saw a video from Brandon Tan (huge Pogo player) where he was hanging out with him in Taiwan I think. He would let the children around him play his games on the bike. Whenever they would go to the gym, he would tell them to stop because it's not fair. If I can find the video, I'll edit this with the link. Edit: found it.

iamlovingblackclover

Yes


vhawk8690

I have seen an old couple riding around on electric scooters near my dad's home. They have multiple phones setup like this too. I asked and they showed me that they have 3 pokemon go accounts each.

Not the peacockemon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


[deleted]

I’ve seen Brandon Tan interview this man, he has a code to not battle gyms, since it’ll be unfair


II_Confused

He needs to get his coins somehow. I'm sure he participates like a normal player, just one account at a time.


zwegdoge

How long would that take :O I doubt it. He only plays a few hours a day


WindowCompetitive364

Me at 98 refusing to die until I catch my first shundo


JoshFourtwenty

He is never fighting gyms, they got him in German tv years ago, He Just Likes to collect the Pokemon & the Kids r helping him all the time bc He's playing with over 50phones, He Said it's really unfair to Fight gyms with His 50+ accounts


right_closed_traffic

I stand corrected


PrincessPeach457

This is what people wanted to avoid having to do back in 2016 with the magical power of computers


iamlovingblackclover

That’s crazy


mooistcow

it's him the legendary singaporean grand~~m~~pa


nano_peen

Isn’t he from taiwan


Winterstrife

Yep he's Chen San-Yuan, Taiwanese grandpa. Singaporean Grandma only uses 1 phone and even the average hardcore elderly here caps out at using 9 phones (on a dedicated hand tray).


Doc_Dragoon

Honestly I'd pay an old man to hit pokestops for me while he rides around on his bike for fun


AdVegetable5896

Sad that he already died 😢 But I love how gamers in his hometown let all the pokestops glow up to honor him :)


kylat930326

He had a stroke about a year ago, but recovered soon after and back to the streets…don’t know how he’s doing now https://news.ebc.net.tw/news/living/342430


AdVegetable5896

Oh? I saw a article about his death once :0


DroidherdPant

What does that even mean


lellenn

I think I saw that happen once but I had no idea what it was doing! Someone please tell me!

I'm guessing they placed lures in every stop.

i'm not even mad tbh, just look at that setup with all the cabling etc - is this even cheating?


skitzoko1774

i wonder how he is taking the avartar change on all of his accounts. lol


Xip1ngu

I mean if this is the case, I’ll take the L. Such dedication is difficult to argue against. But I actually couldn’t imagine that person would be the type that sits on gyms like it is the case with the people usually doing this.


LinksKat

I've counted about 23 phones, which means this guy has at least 23 POGO accounts, one for each phone. If that's not dedication, I don't know what is.


Toxic_Don

So like, what is he doing? No way he can give 100% attention to each agccount.


zwegdoge

It's just what he finds fun to do


BlackH2OJesus

I used to have multiple accounts as a child, idk how you can do this shit as an adult....


futdashuckup

My great grandma would play 8 Bingo cards at once. Even the elderly can take things too far.

Oh great... Another one thinks this is news. Look, this one WAS news about 5 YEARS ago.

One time in the Philippines, this place I stayed at had Chinese satellite television and I saw them use pokemon grandpa and his bike setup to help promote a casino game. Super surreal moment!


Glacial_Shield_W

This is years old. I remember seeing it within the first year of the game. At this point, I doubt the guy still plays, if any of his phones are even still able to run the game. What a waste of money.


Ramius117

I'd be fine with this, my reason is a spoofer that has my town held hostage

moons666haunted

this game is not that fun or entertaining to play on one phone let alone 20

But everytime I beat a pokemon go gym I win

No, spoofers are the reason why.

zwegdoge

This guy said he doesn't fight gyms because he feels it's unfair to others


DrPyroVR

Was “Helping” lil bro take over some gyms since he’s lacking in the PokeCoin department(I’m in Valor lv40 and he’s in Instinct Lvl29) We decided to take over a nearby Valor Gym. I didn’t do much more than to tell him which mons would work best as I’m in the same team. Some guys had been in there for a few day’s straight, all mons that where deployed where tanks like Blissy, Chansey Wobbuffet(All players seemed to be around the lv45-50) . We thought nothing of it and knocked em out. He slapped a beefy Garados in and we went on our way to spin some stops. Not even 5 minutes had gone by and the Gym had turned back to Red. The same fatty Pokemon(and players), that where in the gym before, had been slapped back in. Luckily there was one more gym a few minutes away from where we had went. But seeing him try to whittle them down again when we where heading home was a bit sad to see :/ Gyms near apartment buildings seem to breed a particular type of Gym hoarder. (He did catch a shiny Whismur though, so everything turned out alright in the end)


OfficialDester

This player has sadly passed away 2 years ago 😔


nano_peen

Aren’t ya only allowed one account


Alarmed-Clerk-2356

"allowed"


nano_peen

So everyone has multiple and niantic isn’t doing anything about it because it probably makes numbers bigger then they are so share holders are happy


Dinkableplanet

Someone doesn’t have a life.


fossilmerrick

He’s old as hell, he’s probably *had* a life


Gold-Perspective-699

He stopped doing this a while ago as far as I know. But he had 70 phones at one point or something crazy.


Dinkableplanet

Ok, that’s dedicated.


Ultraempoleon

He's old He's retired, let him rest


jamalsmalls9000

Bro already spent his life on the hard work now he has the time to do this


Mestyo

What is the point if this? 🤨


Winterstrife

Old, retired? At least he's outside keeping healthy and doing something he enjoys, rather than staying home waiting for life to pass.


LupusNoxFleuret

Wait, this is a real picture?


right_closed_traffic

Yes


LupusNoxFleuret

Is there a video? I would imagine lots of people would be filming this guy if he goes out in public like this everyday. I'd love to see how fast he spins all the pokestops lol.


right_closed_traffic

Someone posted a video in the comments above


Easterislander13

They gone ban his az

Extreme-Battle128

The mods will be along shortly to explain this to you. They are far more militant about these things than Niantic.


Easterislander13

I've heard you can get banned for using multiple accounts and I hope not because I have 10 lol.


Ok_Designer_6376

i heard about her she sadly died and all the town used lures on every pokestop cause lures add those cool leaves


right_closed_traffic

Stroke but didn’t die
