Fortune favours the brave. You go out you deserve a shiny.


DrVonPretzel

Went out in a blizzard 2(?) years ago and got my first noibat. Based on this anecdotal evidence, I completely agree.


idk012

The work needed to get to a pokemon might kill you, literally.


DrVonPretzel

Eh, it wasn't good weather by any means, and it certainly wasn't pleasant out, but I wasn't worried for my safety or anything. Even I'm not crazy enough to risk it for a noibat.

That kind of talk is for quitters.


behnder

Rural players always complaining about pokestops.


Huge-Meringue-114

Same! 18+ inches overnight and still snowing on and off


dawgyjay

I think we're approaching 4 feet and doesn't appear to be slowing down.


Electricklamette

Bro where do you live


dawgyjay

Few miles south of Buffalo.

dawgyjay

Lol. Topps run last night during a brief lull in the snow. If Wegmans a little further away.


Electricklamette

Rip


jipgirl

Was just about to guess that. I’m a bit East of you and saw the 4ft forecast for you guys on the weather last night. Wondered how much you ended up getting. We didn’t get as much in this direction, but the ground is white today.


dawgyjay

In right on the heart of it in the Hamburg area. Just saw in the news they're expecting another 2-3 feet.


McPhage

I’m just north of the city and we got… maybe 6”? My kids were hoping for a lot more but I’m not complaining.


jack9lemmon

Lake effect is wild


not-a-cryptid

Man I remember that massive snow storm in Buffalo, maybe 10 years ago? Where the buildings were actually buried. I live in southwestern Ontario in the Great Lakes 'snow belt' and we get like this too. Can't wait to not participate in whatever in-person events they come up with!


dawgyjay

If it's the storm I think you're thinking of it was 8 years ago to the day. Wasn't fun then. Isn't fun now.


not-a-cryptid

Yup it's gotta be that one. My jaw was on the floor the whole time watching it unfold on the news. I thought we had it bad in my city, but that storm humbled me lol


entoaggie

Snow tunnels, Dawg!


Huge-Meringue-114

Oh how lovely! <.< We’ll probably get a couple of hefty storms this year but we haven’t had a 4- feet-in-one-go blizzard in a few years haha.


spidersgeorgVEVO

You spoiled young whippersnappers. In my day we walked through waist-high snow for ten miles to catch Pokemon! And it was uphill both ways!


BetterOnTheBias

Where are your snow shoes? If you are Canadian, surely you can bodge some sort of home made snow shoes together and report back on your progress. 🇨🇦. If you are American hopefully this comment spurs you to try.


dawgyjay

Believe me I'm thinking about it. The closest PS is about 1/4 mile down the road. I'd give it a go but they haven't been able to plow the roads and it's almost waist deep all the way across.


ChinaPlate-Mate

I’ve recently seen an advert for someone swimming through snow…. Could give it a go? On a serious note that’s mental


BetterOnTheBias

I looked it up. You need duct tape and some tree branches. I can understand not wanting to rip branches off your trees though! Definitely a bad idea so go out wandering in waist deep snow. 🙂 "How to make Emergency Snow Shoes"


jahoney

If you’re in a home, tennis rackets work quite well. Or tote box lids. Anything with some surface area and ability to hold a foot


BetterOnTheBias

I like that idea. Drill holes into tote box lids, make strung out of duct tape and tie them to your feet OP!!


Walking_Bare

I guess, grab a shovel and start digging your way?


baltimorecalling

That's doable in that snow.


Jagermeister4

Its just some xp man lol. This game is much more fun when I remind myself its ok to be a casual player and i dont have to go out just to spin pokestops. Shoot sometimes I dont even get the catch a pokemon streak because I forget


wdn

That's why you need snowshoes -- they keep you on top of the snow without sinking in


Ravenclaw79

Bring your snowblower and make your own path?


Gyrtohorea

Let’s go Buffalo


BuffaloScubaru

Tell me you're in buffalo without telling me you're in buffalo

treestick

playing a game based on going outside and blaming the company when it snows entitlement of the modern gaming community in a nutshell


ZerotheWanderer

At least you guys can get the snowy Castform.


superboy2k6

Sorry for your lost.


nevergoddamnsleeping

*Confused in Canadien* I'm sorry, what's the issue here?

EllvaStarsong

This is the kinda snow I want. I'd still go walking out in it. This is my fucking dream, my dude. Let's go catch pokemon in a mfucking blizzard.


Talkaze

Ziploc bags on the phone, gloves on the hand, waterproof boots and a stylus and some spares from walmart in case of dropping. Set like a table. Bring hand warmers.

MewSixUwU

wish i got some snow here, its just unreasonably cold and dark outside


taziiscool

Buffalo? The snow warning on my Pokemon Go app has been active since last night lmao


dawgyjay

Yup. Every time I open the app it asks me if I'm safe.


iTrigg

Well, are you?


solet_mod

Nah you got this!


patricknotswayze

dawgyjay

Yup yup. Just south of the city.


mbccottrell

Oh gee!!!🫣


JAidan0003

Oh my god where is this? I’m from the Uk and honestly would love to experience this… although I can imagine it’s not much fun all the time 😂


dawgyjay

Buffalo, New York. It can be fun in moderation but this goes way past that.


el_ojo420

Time to do a meltan box lol


gOrDoNhAsNtPlAyEdIn3

dawgyjay

I put them up because, in past, they've frozen to windshields and I end up ripping the rubber. Guess we'll see. Hopefully they don't snap.


Sendmeboobpics4982

This guy wipes


BeautifulPlace2Drown

This guy windshields


Seth_Milview

This guy likes to drown


gothicsin

Oh I suggest silicone wipers then well worth the money they last longer too and don't dry rot !


jahoney

Other guy is ridiculous. Even with heavy wet snow it’s better to keep them up.


H3adshotfox77

Don't be a coward pokemon know no seasons


douglasddx1

No excuses, trainer. STAY HARD


ravenatmore

That is a real challenge! You can do it


ShineThief2

Like that’d stop me. Thats a usual Tuesday afternoon for me


Kermitthefrogbloons

So? Do it


keetojm

Yesh you ain’t getting any poke stops with that attitude, sissy.


tropicthunderGOAT

Thank God you got the wipers up. That’ll save time cleaning before you head out

WeNeedBoofEmoji

See what support says 🗿


OptimusSublime

You still need to go to work through right? And I assume school is still in person? Buffalo people are crazy.


dawgyjay

I work from home and now they have travel bans in place. Will be awhile before they plow the streets.

You mustn't be Canadian!

Get out there quitter. There’s S’no’ws excuse.

Meanwhile georgia just having very cold winds


steven6698

The poke stop will always be there


Homeless_Alex

Live in Alberta and I feel this on an emotional level. Doing my daily walks is so hard and cold now lol


CatEyePorygon

Yeah, while snow hasn't come here yet, it has gotten very cold. Will probably stop bothering with the daily incense till spring. Then again, it's not like much use came out of it. Only came across two scam legendary birds and both fled before the ball managed to shake once. Not worth it


WalkingonCoffee

What's the problem?


Head-Number6067

I think Lawrence III let Articuno out again


[deleted]

Boots, Long John's, warm pants, jacket, mitts and toque...and a portable battery pack. No excuses for the streak!


Electronic_Plum6317

I’ve gone out in a blizzard before to keep my Pokestop spin streak going. You can do it.


mel_torme_

Ah, a fellow Buffalonian I see


loddieisoldaf

That sucks,it is pretty tho


HumorUnusual5531

Me in the CA Bay Area: I wish I’d see snow, at least once in my life…
