Never viewed you as a negative vibe creator. The community needs it imo. I wish more youtubers would speak up for us.

Eh, mystic7 has been negative about the game in almost every video for over a year and it make his vids not enjoyable, he heard feedback about it and changed up and his vids improved Imo. Need a healthy balance

38:10 I quote I read one day was “a man who suffers before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary”. Really helped me since I tend to overthink and stress about things that haven’t even happened.

Beautiful. I needed this

Hey guys, I’ve used to play Pokémon go for so long but I’ve been off the grind for a while now. I am a free to play player and my last memory was defeating mega rayquaza raids. I remember not getting enough mega energy so I left the game for a while. What I thought to be 1 week turned into a year now. The game has improved so much but I just haven’t been drawn to it. How have you guys burned out from Pokémon go or how did you guys come back?

Yo Daxi, hope you see this. Your info and content about strictly the game is top tier and always a huge help, but this series is the shining example of why you're my favorite PoGo youtuber. Your willingness to talk about what you've been through be it cancer treatments or therapy or anxiety or whatever it may be is so powerful. We've come a super far way as a society in how we view mental health, but there's still a long ways to go. And it's always going to be an extremely difficult thing for so many people on an individual level to reach out to someone for help, and the way you are so open in saying "hey I deal with this" or "my therapist told me this" help normalize all of these discussions bit by bit. I truly think there are people out there being impacted by this in a very real and positive way. As someone who's been through their mental health struggles in the past, I want to say thank you for helping normalize this and help people in whatever way that may be. And I hope you know that myself and so many other people in your audience care about you as a person too :) You got me yapping here and I don't feel like I've conveyed everything I hoped to, but that's the best I can do for now. So yeah, keep it up man, and I'll listen to you yap any day of the week

This video is so sweet omg. The memories you made are literally heartbreaking and hope you enjoyed your time!! Me personally I started at the start of last year so I really don’t have of memories unlike! Can’t wait to see more in the future

Did you mean precious or something instead of heartbreaking

I catched a wild mesprit today. My first wild mesprit (not sinnoh tour) in 3 years of playing

Brilliant upload Daxi! I agree with so much of what you are saying in relation to your points raised with Pokemon Go and the communities. I especially like your reference back to what your psychiatrist tells you and your memory of playing the game made me emotional. Many of us will have stories like that and a bond to the game and it's so fun to relive those. I never really thought of how content creation can be at times quite isolating and I hope that you know how much we appreciate your insight, tips and strategies and even goals and all that good stuff. Just want you to know that playing Pokemon Go makes me feel less alone and has helped me overcome social anxieties. I play because it makes me feel a part of something and it certainly helps getting exercise and whatnot. Keep being you Daxi and hopefully can meet with you when you visit New Zealand soon :D

I would love too see you in a Podcast with an other Contentcreateaor

my favourite Pokemon is zeraora. now it hasn't been released in the game yet and i can probably only get one when it does come out cuz it's a mythical but my favourite pokemon in the game is Gardevoir. i just love everything about that pokemon.

Set goals each day. Gives playing purpose. Short goals and long term goals. Don't be hard on yourself if you fall short of expectations. I'm constantly humbled.

Go Fest London was my Only In-Person Go Fest and also only one trip to other country and it was AWESOME. I remember every detail, every step, building etc. I also remember the whole Event, that was super Fun, especially when I with my friend come at the end of Park experience to meet you. Thank you for being there and making videos!

I didn't have a phone until a few years back but before that, my friend would let me play on her account during lunch breaks. Maybe since I haven't played from the start, I am more excited about the game. The cool thing about this game is the many aspects. You can play in a lot of different ways. For a game that claims to be so much about walking, you can do PVP battles for hours from home, send gifts to friends, pop a mystery box. Or you can go on daily adventures and discover new places, follow routes, nominate new stops. You can challenge yourself with field research or battle raid bosses and events in between spice it up and add new features and pokemon or variants. Sure, not everything is roses but there is plenty to do, always changing.

about the "just find more friends" thing, we have at least 10 active people in town and no matter how much I invite people to raid days or comm days usually no one shows up, I do thankfully have one friend I play with consistently but making new friends isnt always possible. I have the contact info for 3 other players and I've never had any luck getting them to even step outside their house for 10 minutes... they occasionally pop up in gyms or remotely raid but never see them out and about

I was at the opening of Pokémon Center Tokyo Skytree lining up outdoors when the game started. I was a beta tester, so I already had the game installed.

Listening to you is very calming and grasping, keep doing what you love, you are great at it!

Love to watch all new Videos this sort.

4:30 Having negative opinions is mostly pecause of the passion that a player has for a game or in general. It is also why some can get so titled when tilting, because of the amount of hours spend prepping playing/doing and loving the activity. the backside of this medal is that it also feel very rewarding when sucess happen

Dax, the real ones will understand what you’re saying and even if they do disagree with a few things that you say, then that should still be okay because they will respect you and your opinions and carry on with enjoying your content. You’re a good person and you have good intentions with your content and how you play the game. I respect the hell out of how you treat people IRL. I’ll always support you and wish you the best. Wish I lived closer to Canada so we could be friends! Take care

I was lucky enough to meet you & Poke Momma at London Go Fest last year. It was my first IRL Go Fest as well. Love the new video format BTW.

I have like 2 favorite pokémon 1: Yveltal because it's so sick and i have always loved it and 2: PIKIPEK I saw a random video of your and you like sceamed PIKIPEK and then I just fell in love with it (btw love your content)

I enjoy your positive content. Lots of great points. Keep the hard work!!!

I love this series, you always makes me fell good 😊

So funny bro I was thinking *this a look for daxi* and then you did the fit check. I always look at peoples fits and while this still a very normal vibe I think it fits you quite well with the stache the oakley fishing dad vibe I have seen in other vids is not it tho

People need to realize that criticism is always going to be coming from the direct consumer (us, who play the game) in this case PokeDaxi. It’s just like me going to my favorite restaurant & getting some crappy service for that day but it won’t stop me from eating there because I know it’s not like that all the time. People need to learn to take criticism with a grain a salt. I generally love listening to what all PokeGo content creator have to say about the game.

Collonade Pizza is some of the best in Ottawa for sure! I used to live a block away from their downtown restaurant and loved it.

Nice series!

I agree with the player who said something about the niantic employees caring, whenever you go to support for anything, outside of a known error that causes the raid to crash, you get nothing from them, they don’t even treat your concern as valid it just is brushed off. They manipulate the store( for example I buy the box with a ton of incubators every week, then when there’s an event about hatching eggs they will take it out so I have to pay full price for incubators, and then tell you the store develops the boxes using an algorithm based on my play style, which is contradictory)

pokedaxi never dissapoints!

I had a similar starting story, but mine took about 2 years to unfold. I remember downloading the game in 2018 and catching what i could from my room(which wasnt much lol) and thinking, thats it? Played for like a day or two and gave it up. Then in 2020, my kids were playing the game and asked me to play with them. 4 years later- I am addicted and they never play. As far as negativity goes, I love pokemon. Catching them in the wild when I'm traveling is awesome, but I feel niantic could do some things a little better. Its hasnt stopped me from playing, but perhaps its stopped me from playing as much as I could or from spending more than I do. We're critical of the game because we care!

Great series

Can't tell you how many times I'll say "knowing my luck" and it winds up being that thing. Shiny pokemon that shouldn't be there, hundos that I get way too often, etc. Go fest in person events have been phenomenal that I've been to. 2018 was just kind of overwhelming and was there with one of my long time Pogo friends and we saw, held the umbrella for the person who caught the first Celebi. It inspired me to want to go for the world first Jirachi the following year. 2019, besides the Jirachi was to win a free shirt. After just over an hour of the event I caught and uploaded the Jirachi(also just shared and joined in the discord), turned around and answered the question of the regional exclusive to South America: Heracross and won a shirt. The whole rest of the day was just clowning around. Now I'm looking forward to Go fest NYC and think it's my friend Randy's first in person. Hopefully it's going to be up to a decent hype.

I try to be respectful of everyone that I encounter and usually if I see kids, usually the kids want to go much farther than the parents are wanting to go. The game has gone through several seasons locally and there's a decent amount of OG players that grind like crazy and so encountering newer players who play at a slow rate is weird, but I try to play go with the flow.

My first gofest I've ever participated in was the global one and still never joined any in person ones. While I've done other massive events like comicon, huge rock concerts (size of woodstock), and other traveling experiences meeting wonderful people around the USA... at least till I get a passport

i like these style videos a lot

Dude, that squirrel is missing a tail that's crazy or is it a chipmunk? 😂

If you are going to be consistently making this “let’s play/podcast” series, you should start titling the videos like “Let’s Play Ep. 8: My Best Moments of my Pokémon GO Career”. Just an idea to organize the videos better so your audience knows what they are watching before clicking the video. Thanks for the upload!

The very first auto-catcher I got was a GOtcha. Very first time I turned it on and used it, it caught me a shiny delibird (my first shiny delibird, too)! It was just chilling at my house 😊 I probably would have caught it by hand anyway but it was still a cool experience!

Group discussion would be really fun!

Daxi I got a 15 13 15 shadow swampert currently at 1099 CP what league should I build it for

Loving the content ! Would love to see a collaboration with other content creators if possible !

I always wanted to know how to get cellphone service in other countries or how to get a SIM card to be able to play Pokemon go. With out getting charged like crazy from your cellphone provider.

44:39 Precisely this, it also helps that I’ve been into Pokémon since I was a kid which added even more of a drive to want to master the game. 30:00 this is a similar experience I had except it was for the 2022 go fest, I had just gotten out of a four month hospital stay as well as having just gotten back into the app after getting locked out in 2020 while looking for some thing to do for exercise and therapy. I had played on and off but my accident happened right before this game came out and back then the accessibility wasn’t the best so I played but I didn’t take it seriously. Now wanting to use it for therapy I started watching different KZreadrs and learning all the new aspects of the game. I wasn’t feeling the best and was still even hooked up to a wound VAC but I was starting to get depressed and told myself I might as well go, what’s the worst that can happen and I ended up meeting a group of cool people who invited me to do a raid. This was my first in person raid and it ended up with me getting a shiny Kyogre which was also my first Kyogre. That experience literally changed my whole look on life that I had at the moment, I can honestly say that I really appreciate this game for that. 🤙🏾

2020 and 2021 were the best for me. I did play briefly when the game first came out. But, my phone was so bad that i just couldn’t play it reasonably. The last 1.5 years have really gone downhill. I’ve never been a player to go out and just play for fun without there being an event. At least, not day long hardcore grinds that others do. That just isn’t fun. But even just the weekly events that used to take place in 2020-2021 were typically interesting enough for me to go out and catch a few hundred of the spawns and trade them with friends. That was fun. But even just the weekly events now are so lackluster. Remote raid nerfs really messed up the small town community that was built up. I’ve slowly been growing it back, but it isn’t as strong as it used to be. I’m just not motivated by this game anymore. When I play, I can’t help but just be disappointed and annoyed by the state of the game.

I remember seeing the app on the store before you could download. I registered on day one. Sadly when I took a break in 2018 I had forgotten the log in so I started a new account. And now it’s my main. However since then I got my old 2016 account back but I never play it. Which sucks cuz it’s legit day 1 account.

Great video!

Welcome to ADHD sir. It's a super power as well as a curse. But trust me medication really does help. But my focus has been on Pokémon go and I've gone from level 27 to level 40 in a month... Yeah.. that's hyperfocus..

After watching this video, I don’t even want to play Pokémon go, I just want to hang out and yap with Dax.

If you're still doing the Rate The Shiny? could you do: Umbreon, pangoro & malamar

Yo daxi stop saying you’re yapping bro. Yapping is when ppl just talk and don’t know what they’re really talking about. You talk with substance and we want to hear what you have to say. Stay up bro ✊🏾 Also this game saved me from addiction. I love it

i think that the raids need to be set that if its to far to travel too before it lapses then u can raids to help other but that person has to be at the raids or they make it where if u fail the first raid then u battle a leader who gives u the pokemon but it has low ivs

What did you trade Dan? Was it another shiny sableye?

My favorite memories are my son & I taking down raid bosses ❤️

Love u Daxi !

After watching from Season 1 to Season 25 i start playing pokemon go ❤ bugs is the major part of every game when new update releases

I agree with the point that you should find and build up your community instead of complaining you don't have it. I play the game in a country where the game is not even released officially, no regional prices and you must use VPN to download the game. Every single player we have found and added to our chat is our proud achievement. We host a raid hour every single Wednesday even if it is Regirock and only 3 people showed up. Just to be active and let community grow. One day we will have such a strong community which can not be ignored, we will have the game released, will have a community ambassador and stuff. So stop searching for excuses and be the person to build up your community! We have done it and you can do it too 💪

I honestly don't think you're very negative at all. People who watch and complain about not always being positive and unrealistic. There are YTers that open TCG product and my god, it's horrible! Haha keep doing what you're doing Daxi. These videos are very refreshing and give a good perspective on who you are outside of POGO. I wish I could make it to Mexico! It's been alot harder to go anywhere with the little 1 year old. Hoping in a year or so I can get my kid his own little phone to play pogo (and of course other learning games) so we can both be active together ❤️

I agree pokemon go is a rollercoaster there are parts that make people happy and parts that dont it is what is

From the comment section of last video, I think a flat spawn rate would remove those cool areas that you find that have loads of spawns and could decrease the want to go to specific places if its all the same. At the same time, areas with lower populations should get an increase.

You and Poke AK are my favorite!

My fav pokemon is a Gengar, reasoning for this is that it was my first ever level 100 pokemon on Pokemon Pearl.

25 remote raids a day is absolutely more than you really need, even if I go out for an entire raid hour and am actively out all day I never manage more than 20 raids in a day unless its a massive event like go fest. and I think thats plenty, even 5-15 remote cards a day is tons, even someone who is intentionally going out wont really get that many raids unless they absolutely grind. I think the price is the big thing

as a math nerd, I must comment on this. Chance to get at least one hundo on lucky trade within 25 trades is 1-(63/64)^25 = 32.5%. So not super high, but not astronomically impossible. 22:55

Happy Indy 500

Personally, my two best moments are hitting legend for the first time a few days ago and catching a hundo shadow Dragonite.

I found miltank during go fest 2023 and fell in love instantly

Because my favorite is a mythical, it's not tradable. Granted, while it's not the absolute top dark attacker getting me a shundo, Darkrai will be my dream pokemon achievement. I do have a hundo and shines of it, but not a shundo. Maybe once they release it as a shadow mythical, which then will mostly have it as top dark raid counter. However finding my only shundo I ever got which was a wild spawn sharpedo still amazed by it!

I enjoy your content

I'm starting to think you really like birds in previous podcasts you were amazed by some birds and now again: 9:21 "Damn dude oh there is a duck over there."

if youtubers start complaining to much , isnt : they need to stop . .. but it is : im not watching your vids anymore, watching pokemon youtubers or not , doesnt change me playing pokemon. im not investing time in ppl that create negativity.

my favourite is Machamp, because i used to love ben ten as a kid n my favourite alien was four-arms

I started playing in July of 2016

Sableye is the absolute GOAT! My favourite Pokemon for sure 😊

You got the game 6 days before it released cause I got it on release haha

My fav memory is when I started playing on my birthday, 6/24

yes. being negative or realistic is normal. but being negative about any event or news and keeping bringing up the same issue as an excuse just to be negative is not ok (not talking about any specific content creator. just in general). basically, the game is made to motivate people to go outside. if that is 20 mins or 20hours doesn't really matter. it's still a win. keep up the good content. have a nice one

I'm sorry daxi but the way you said that at 37:12 was to fkin funny 🤣 but I do know wym I'm from Louisiana shx get dangerous out here I don't wanna drive on wrong street n get shot up for it

36:23 Self-diagnosis is valid!

Please make a video about the game cells. They must create 2 points in one cell!

Daxi: I cant self diagnose with ADHD, also Daxi: has literal squirrel moment while talking about something completely unrelated 40:42 (also I have been diagnosed with ADHD and my brother so do you… trust me😂)

This game requires therapy😂

I see you learnt your lesson and not wearing your white sneakers lol 😆 😂

I wished I didn’t quit when I was playing pogo at 6 and now I had a friend who got me back into it and now I’m addicted to it (not toooooooo addicted but yeah 😅) I’m 14 soon 😝

A little request from Niantic about coming soon Pokemon Festival. When Pokemon Festival in progress players follow route white striped Basculin can be appear again in middle of route and white striped Basculin can be evolve into Basculegion this time. Eventually will be ☹️.

BTW to see a pokemon from a certain year you have to say 'year ____'

Chapters?

I'm glad I will forever be part of your best moments in Pokemon Go

Can we please trade during madrid go fest?

that thumbnail though

I hate the people who always complain about negativity. I'm the total opposite, I'm all for calling out Niantic and pointing out all of the stupid stuff they always do so that hopefully some of those things will change. Even though Niantic most likely won't change a thing, I think it's still better to call them out than to act like everything is all fine. I get where Daxi is coming from, he's seen the game in a better state in the past.

I love the fact we dont have gen 8 starters yet🙎‍♂️

It's not hate. If anyone hates something they stay away from it. I wish people would stop saying hate. Try upset, dislike or disappointed in.

I don’t remember anything from when I started playing lmao

Bro big fan❤❤

Didn't you say you started playing Pokemon go in 2020? I'm pretty sure that it's two videos of you saying that, and I was like wait a minute he show his account before and it said 2016, I even stopped the video and go went back, and how you show it again, I mean there is no shame on buying Pokemon go accounts to get a head start, I done it before a few times
