Alright, guys, so I’ve been getting a TON of questions about Porygon lately. Everyone seems to be hunting for this digital duck, and honestly, who can blame them? It’s a classic, and pretty rare. So, I decided to do a deep dive and figure out the best way to snag one in Pokemon Go. Here’s what I did, and what I learned:
My Porygon Hunt: Step-by-Step
First, I started hitting up all my usual spots. You know, the places that are always buzzing with activity – parks, shopping centers, busy intersections. No luck. I popped Incense, used Lures, even walked around for hours. Still nothing. I was starting to think Porygon was a myth!
Then, I remembered someone mentioning that Porygon sometimes shows up near “digital” places. I had to use my head and think what are “digital” things and think outside of the box, So, I started thinking: What’s more “digital” than a place that’s all about technology?
I looked all around for areas, with no luck. I was getting tired and ready to give up, but then I remembered, that I live near a major college campus and large universities often have computer science departments and tech labs. I went to the big university in my area and there were tons of Pokestops around!
I started by just walking around the campus, hitting up every Pokestop I could find. I figured, even if I didn’t find Porygon right away, I’d at least stock up on items. And, you know what? It actually worked!
I couldn’t believe it at first! I was getting a little bit of foot traffic, that’s when I saw that box-like head and I saw Porygon, right there on my screen! I tossed a Razz Berry, held my breath, and threw an Ultra Ball. Boom! Got it!
My Tips for Finding Porygon
- Think “Digital”: Look for areas associated with technology. College campuses, maybe even libraries with lots of computers, are worth checking out.
- Be Patient: This isn’t a guaranteed method. It might take some time, and a lot of walking.
- Events: Keep an eye out for special events. Niantic sometimes boosts the spawn rates of certain Pokemon, and Porygon might be included.
- Use Your Items: Incense and Lures can help, but they’re not magic. Don’t rely on them entirely.
- Don’t Give Up! Honestly, the thrill of finally finding that elusive Pokemon is worth the effort.
So, there you have it. That’s how I finally caught my Porygon. It took some effort, and a bit of creative thinking, but it was totally worth it. Good luck with your own Porygon hunt, and let me know if you find one using this method!
