In Pokémon GO, we discuss the best and strongest Pokémon in the game.
With the “Pokémon GO” app, you can step out into the wide world and catch Pokémon at your leisure. The game includes the monsters of the first generation (Red and Blue), although some of them are not yet available.
After catching the tenth Rattata, the eighth Pidgey, and maybe even the first Vaporeon, every new Pokémon trainer eventually asks: “Which of these creatures is actually the best?” Can the cute little guys hold their own, or are the only powerful monsters those that look particularly fierce?
The strongest Pokémon in the game
In the editions for the good old Nintendo, each Pokémon has individual values that determine its strength. Currently, the attributes are: HP, Attack value, Defense value, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed. The higher these values, the more powerful the Pokémon.
The sum of these values can be used as a criterion to rank the Pokémon in the game. According to the current numbers, these are the top ten monsters of the first generation:
Mewtwo (680)
Mew (600)
Dragonite (600)
Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres (each 580)
Arcanine (550)
Gyarados (540)
Snorlax (540)
Lapras (535)
Charizard (534)
Blastoise (530)
Even though the attributes in Pokémon GO are not displayed, they are still an indicator of which monsters are considered particularly strong in the app.
In Pokémon GO, other values are visible:
CP (Combat Points): This value indicates the general strength of the Pokémon. The semicircle under the CP value represents how much of its potential has been utilized. With evolutions, the CP value increases. After that, the value can only be raised with Stardust and Candies.
The CP value of captured Pokémon is determined randomly. The rule is: The higher your Trainer level, the stronger Pokémon you will find. Also watch out for the size category of the Pokémon: The larger and heavier they are, the harder they can hit. The HP shows you how much damage a Pokémon can take in battle. Read more about the abbreviations in Pokémon GO here.
There is no “best Pokémon” in Pokémon games. All monsters have various types, each with their strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, no Pokémon can be determined that is superior to all others. The question of the best Pokémon becomes redundant. One can only ask for the Pokémon with the highest values – whether it be the CP or the sum of all attributes.
By the way: If you are currently proudly showing off your Pidgeot with CP 800 in WhatsApp groups – there’s still room for improvement. Pokémon with CP beyond 2000 have been sighted. Where the maximum value lies will be revealed in the future.
Of the first generation Pokémon, Mewtwo has the highest attributes – so one can assume that it will also be a strong beast in Pokémon GO. The developers must have at least oriented themselves to these values for the app. However, it is still unknown how to find and catch Mewtwo in the game.

A new week and we all ask the same question: Where can I find the next Pokémon?
Last time we took the phrase “Looking Ahead” a bit too seriously and looked into the future. But thankfully, no one in the comments complained about the wrong date. Now we took another careful look at the calendar.
As usual, in the weekly review we will also consider other games besides the current trio Destiny, The Division, and Pokémon GO, even if we had to cheat a bit for that. The following articles are all very popular, but do not necessarily represent an order of views. Because the weekly review should offer a bit of variety.
Pokémon GO
The weekly review seems to have a bad influence on shooters. Because with each passing week, they continue to drop. The reason is quickly identified: Everyone is in “Pokémon GO” fever – including Guardians and Agents. While currently, you can only feverishly wait for news about upcoming content from the shooters, all barriers are breaking with the Pokémon app.
A few texts later, we reach the Ubisoft shooter. Only at position 22 is there a game that does not bear the name Pokémon GO. Incredible, it could have been the fourth game in this list earlier. Now, it is the second!
The third well-known representative. It was at the top before, now it is steadily declining. “The Rise of Iron Lords” will probably correct the ranking.
Between Destiny and Overwatch, there are several other news along with numerous Pokémon articles. Among other things, FIFA again, which does not receive its own headline due to lack of further news. If someone wants to complain about this, please contact the boss. Although he had no influence on the decision, he is happy about every new email.
It is wonderful that you are still reading World of Warcraft. The image of Gul’dan and Togepi must not be missing from the article. And how diligent you have been. For that, there are six out of six links!
More games could have followed with their own headline, but unfortunately, the news was never enough for that. Due to a certain game, it wasn’t even sufficient to display just the top 100 most popular texts, the first 250 had to be shown. For that, there are more links here than ever before.
In the survival game H1Z1 comes a feature that fans have been waiting for: player corpses will rise again as zombies.
In zombie movies, one of the great twists is: everyone dies twice. Just moments ago, you were rooting for one of the survivors and cheering, then the Z’s caught him and turned him into one of their own. And now the former hero wants to feast on his friends’ flesh or brains – tastes vary.
This very feature is now finalized for H1Z1: players who die will return as zombies. If others want to loot, they will have to take out the zombie. When exactly this will happen is currently unclear. The features will be integrated into the live game when they are ready for it. Before that, it will go back to the test server.

Servers with a clear end date that will experience a wipe after 1, 2 or 3 weeks where a survival winner will be crowned
Boss zombies for the MMO version “Just Survive”
And an improvement system for the weapons
With H1Z1, it is somewhat difficult to clearly understand what is planned for which version. H1Z1 has been split into two parts: “Just Survive” emphasizes crafting and MMO aspects; King of the Kill is more about arcade mode for faster, concluded matches and action. King of the Kill is also set to be released soon for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One – Just Survive will remain in early access for PC players for a while longer.

The shooter Star Wars: Battlefront is getting a new DLC. Just in time for the movie “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”.
A new Battlefront DLC in time for the movie release
Star Wars: Battlefront is doing great and there is no end in sight for the shooter on consoles and PC. In the coming months, the next DLC, thematically focused on the Death Star, awaits all Season Pass owners, but even after that, there will still be new content. At this year’s “Star Wars Celebration,” Electronic Arts spoke about the next DLC, which will be released close to the premiere of the next Star Wars film.
The DLC is called “Rogue One: Scarif” and will – who could have guessed – take place on the planet Scarif. While no footage of the new maps has been released yet, if the maps are based on the film, there will likely be a mix of beach and jungle, as seen on the movie posters.
At least 2 new characters have also been confirmed for the DLC, allowing players to assume the role of Jyn Erso on the Rebel side. Additionally, the antagonist of the film, the nasty Orson Krennic, will be playable on the Imperial side as a villain and will take up arms.
The movie release of “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” is scheduled for December 16, 2016. EA plans to release the DLC as close to this date as possible to take full advantage of the general Star Wars hype surrounding the film. Aside from that, the usual “DLC rules” of EA apply, meaning: owners of the Season Pass will have access to the new content 2 weeks earlier than the rest of the player base.
If there is no Pokémon GO , one has to find a way to help oneself.
While Pokémon GO has already been released in countries like Germany, USA or Australia and has captivated many trainers, other countries still have to wait for a release. In China, for example, the game has not yet appeared. However, it seems that they have found a good alternative, as a “Pokémon GO” clone dominates the top of the iOS App Store.
Like Pokémon GO, but without Augmented Reality
The game City Spirit GO features a mascot that looks somewhat similar to Pikachu from Pokémon. Most of the features from Pokémon GO can also be found in the Chinese clone. For example, you must go to specific places to find and catch the various monsters.
Source: Nextshark
The game is available for free, but offers in-app purchases of up to 97 dollars for a diamond pack. Because there is no “Augmented Reality” support, the developers rely on drawn backgrounds where you can see the little monsters. It is surprising that the user ratings of this app are really positive and players seem to be very satisfied with the Pokémon GO clone. According to “Techinasia“, the game has been available since March 24 – shortly after Nintendo started the beta test of Pokémon GO solely in Japan.
At Hearthstone the rumor mill is slowly starting to bubble again. An informant gives hints about the next expansion.
An adventure with only three characters
In the meantime, the effects of “Whispers of the Old Gods” in Hearthstone have occurred, and the meta is peacefully returning to its old routine. However, since Blizzard plans to release the next expansion in the summer that is supposed to be an adventure again, it is time to think about it.
On Reddit, the rumor mill is already boiling over again, as a user claims to have knowledge of the next expansion. According to him, the next expansion revolves around a raid instance from World of Warcraft, which consists of 3 characters in Chinese. Various Reddit users have then listed the names of the Chinese raids and came to these 5 results:
卡拉赞 Karazhan
奥杜尔 Ulduar
永春台 Terrasse des endlosen Frühlings
悬槌堡 Hochfels
祖阿曼 Zul’Aman
Karazhan was one of the most popular raid instances ever. An adventure in Hearthstone would be just appropriate.
Especially Karazhan and Ulduar have always been very popular among World of Warcraft players and are well remembered. Since both instances also have significant importance for the story of “Legion,” it is quite possible that a connection between the two games will be created. Especially Karazhan would be suitable, as this location also played a role in the movie. In any case, not much time is likely to pass, as summer is passing by quickly – and players are eagerly waiting for new cards in Hearthstone.
The “leak” is especially trusted because the user previously predicted the release of the new shaman hero Morgl. Therefore, it is quite likely that he is also right this time. However, there is no guarantee for that.

Darkfall: New Dawn plays its cards openly and does not let you buy a pig in a poke.
Darkfall: New Dawn opens its PreOrder shop and allows all interested parties to take a look at the reboot of Darkfall Online before purchase. According to developer Ub3rgames, the servers will remain open for everyone to test until July 25. You can find the download link here.
Every ending is a new beginning
Long before the opening of Kickstarter and before sandbox MMORPGs celebrated their current revival with games like Shroud of the Avatar or Chronicles of Elyria, the Greek studio Aventurine tried to awaken the genre from its slumber with Darkfall Online and Darkfall: Unholy Wars. Unfortunately, that is now over, as the studio recently had to shut down the servers.
Fortunately for fans, there are currently two reboot projects for Darkfall that want to breathe new life into the vanilla version of the game. Promising at the moment is Darkfall: New Dawn, whose developer Ub3rgames released a first gameplay video online at the beginning of March.

The new PreOrder store, which is still in the testing phase and therefore not fully functional, offers the base game as well as different subscription packages.
But before you make a purchase in the shop, you should extensively test the game until July 25, before the servers are switched from “public-preview” to “buyers-only”.
“After July 25, Darkfall: New Dawn will enter its InDev phase, meaning that there will be temporary ‘Seasonal Servers’ with a tiered reward system. At the same time, the political meta-system of the game is intended to be initiated,” the developers explain. “The server name ‘InDev’ means that this is the relaunch of the vanilla version of Darkfall, which is still very much in development.”
If you don’t have time to test the game yourself, take a look at this series of gameplay videos from a Darkfall tester that the devs recently linked on their Youtube channel:

Pokémon GO and the whole Pokémon theme was never really interesting for Jürgen. He only downloaded the Pokémon GO app for research purposes and didn’t use it much due to a poor data connection in his hometown. But then came a fateful trip to Pforzheim and changed everything!
On July 12th, it was officially time and I came into contact with Pokémon GO. By necessity, because my boss wanted me to write news about it, after all, the topic was currently the Mega-Hype. “Okay,” I thought and informed myself thoroughly about the game. But somehow I couldn’t really imagine that it was supposed to be fun. Catching silly creatures with your phone that you see sitting on some funny images and tweets on toilet bowls and manhole covers? And also go outside? Seriously?! Gaming has always been a great fun for me because I didn’t have to go outside where it was cold, hot, or wet.
However, I am also quite a perfectionist and very unwilling to write news about games I’ve never played. So the next day, I downloaded Pokémon GO and tried it out. The first starter Pokémon was not much of a problem, but unfortunately, I live in a small Swabian village south of Pforzheim. There were indeed two Poké Stops (village fountain and church), but since the mobile data connection here is very modest, I couldn’t use the points.
And there were also no new Pokémon to be seen back then; there was rustling everywhere in the virtual bushes, but somehow nothing ever came out, and I couldn’t go further from the house because then the Wi-Fi would be gone. “What a waste!” I thought to myself and forgot the app again. At least I had played around with it and could somewhat participate in conversations and write better articles about it.
New Hunting Grounds
Still, the topic was not off the table and even my girlfriend – who works as a teacher and has little to do with games – recently said, “At my school, they looked for a Pokémon in the bathroom and I supposedly had one on my shoulder the whole time!”. Yes, there must be something to it, but what to do if I can’t find anything here in the village?
But then yesterday came the perfect opportunity to get to know the game better. My girlfriend had arranged to meet two friends in Pforzheim for a small summer festival in the castle garden. “Hmm, Pforzheim, a city with a functioning data connection, where there are surely plenty of Pokémon species and Poké Stops.” I thought and off I went!
They are everywhere!
Soon I was in Pforzheim in the castle park, and indeed, everything was full of Poké Stops and there were footprints and mysterious creatures rustling in the virtual foliage everywhere. What could be hiding there? Since my girlfriend was still looking for a parking space, I went a bit hunting and was able to snag a Poké Stop at the “Luther Oak.” In the process, I also learned some cool facts about the tree, which was planted in the 19th century to celebrate the Reformation. Cool!
Unfortunately, the Pokémon hunting didn’t go so well, because somehow the app was completely overloaded, and even though there were plenty of Pokémon around, none ever appeared for me, and the only one I really saw was with a group of teenagers, and I didn’t want to disturb them. At some point, I got lucky and actually encountered a beast. It was a kind of purple Valkyrie with a kiss mouth, a Rossana, as it turned out later.
I’m too old for this shit!
Cool! My first real Pokémon! Suddenly the app switched to AR camera mode and I could throw balls at the creature. But how does that actually work? I threw and threw, and nothing happened. Do I have to hit the Pokémon directly? Or does the ball have to be under the thing? And what’s with this stupid green circle? I wasted dozens of balls, and eventually, I had success, because it went “pop” and the Pokémon was gone. But the ball was right in the camera and didn’t move. Did I catch it or did my silly antics annoy the Pokémon and it escaped?
Nothing was happening anyway, and by now my girlfriend and our other friends had also arrived, and we actually wanted to listen to the bands at the summer festival and drink beer. However, the acoustics in the castle garden were not the best and the bands even less so. It was hardly bearable, and we moved on to the rooftop terrace of a parking garage where a kind of beach bar was set up.
Hey, are you playing Pokémon?
On the way there, I looked at my phone again and apparently the Pokémon app crashed due to a bug, and after a restart, it also turned out that the captured Pokémon wasn’t registered either. Great! Still, I didn’t give up and looked for Pokémon again in the beach bar. My buddy noticed this and wanted to know what I was doing. I explained it to him, and just as I was doing so, the waitress came to bring our beer.
“Hey, you’re playing Pokémon!” she said, and she was already there giving us a few tips. For example, that there were always a few Habitak fluttering at the railing over there, and that various Bisasam were hiding in the basement of the parking garage. My buddy was so impressed that he immediately downloaded the app, and then we went hunting together. And here I could finally catch a Pokémon without the app crashing. When it got dark, I even caught a Zubat. I was very proud!
I have to catch them all!
From then on, I was firmly caught by the Poké fever, and when we later went home and strolled through the pedestrian zone of Pforzheim on the way to the parking lot, I passed by numerous Poké Stops where I could refill my depleted Poké Ball stock. I could have caught several Pokémon that wandered through the streets at night, but my girlfriend wanted to go home and it was already quite cold.
However, I didn’t want to go to bed yet, and as soon as I got home, I went out again and made another raid. Because further back in our new housing development, the mobile data network was indeed better, and I desperately wanted to catch a few more Pokémon. Besides, I had just found out that I could hatch an egg that I had found earlier in Pforzheim if I walked around with it long enough. Very cool!
The Ponita in the neighbor’s garden…
What was supposed to be a short trip turned into a real odyssey through the village, because even if the Pokémon population in the countryside was not the best, there were still enough creatures around, and a particularly magnificent Ponita was laughing at me from a stranger’s garden. I really wanted to have that creature, but I can’t just go into someone else’s property, especially not in the middle of the night, can I? So I crept around the house for ages and tried to somehow bring the Pokémon into camera mode – which probably looked even more suspicious than if I had just trampled on the lawn…
At some point, I got lucky and was able to find and catch the Ponita, and when I finally got home again, it was shortly after 1:00 AM, and I was totally frozen and a little sick, but also happy. And today I can hardly wait to go hunting again and expand my collection. If someone had told me at the beginning of the week that I would be wandering around for hours in the cold and darkness, I would have laughed at him, but now I see a great opportunity in every shopping trip and every trip to the city to really catch them all…
In Hinduism, some skins of the hero Symmetra from Overwatch are viewed with suspicion. Will this lead to the removal of the skins?
Symmetra as “Devi” – Insulting a True Goddess?
It is again time for a somewhat curious Overwatch news. Rajan Zed, the “President of Universal Society of Hinduism” has released a statement demanding Blizzard to remove two skins from Overwatch. And how could it be otherwise: It concerns Symmetra, specifically her “Devi” and “Goddess” skins.
Devi is one of the major goddesses of Hinduism, who has been revered in various forms and names for a very long time. Although the skin for Symmetra does not exactly match a specific form of Devi, it contains individual aspects, such as Kali’s skull decoration or the blue skin color, which is reserved for “eternal beings”.
Too offensive for Hindus?
Zed goes even further and tries to strike back at Blizzard with their own weapons, as the statement continues:
“Zed has made it clear that Blizzard should act according to their own values, which also include responsibility (“As one of the leading companies in the gaming sector, we feel committed to making ethical decisions”). In this case, it would not have been the case, as it would have created confusion in the community regarding the flawed representation of Devi.”
A response from Blizzard is still pending.
Mein-MMO says: This is, of course, difficult to assess if one is not completely immersed in the subject of Hinduism. However, the analogy that players are now driving the fate of the gods and not the other way around seems a bit far-fetched. But does it truly surprise anyone? After all, similar accusations were raised before regarding Kali from SMITE , which led to a new design for the goddess – she still exists in the game, however. Let’s wait and see how Blizzard responds. Maybe not at all.

In Destiny, a fan showcases his Warlock cosplay. This is definitely worth showing off.
Each of you surely has your favorite class in Destiny: the unyielding Titan, the daring Hunter, or the battle-hardened Warlock. And perhaps many have dreamed of donning the cool armor of their favored Guardian and posing in front of a mirror with a powerful weapon in hand.
For most of us, this idea probably remains in the realm of fantasy. However, the prop maker Eric Newgard makes this dream come true: he created a complete Warlock suit, which exhibits impressive quality. See for yourself:
Newgard is a passionate cosplayer who proudly showcased his Warlock in public for the first time at RTX Convention 2016. Two of these pictures also feature the Void Sword, which he crafted himself – along with the other Willbreaker swords.
What do you think of this Warlock for the wardrobe?
Every successful trainer needs these rare Pokémon in Pokémon GO!
Pidgey, Rattata, and Zubat are just a few names that many Pokémon GO players probably can’t hear or see anymore. This isn’t because these Pokémon make extremely stupid noises, but simply because they are widelyspread. These species of Pokémon appear so frequently that it’s no longer special to catch them. But what about the rarer Pokémon? Which ones are already in the game?
Rare Pokémon in Pokémon GO
Keep in mind that depending on the location, some Pokémon appear more often than others (Typical locations for Pokémon types can be found here), and therefore the term “rare” is heavily location-dependent in some cases. However, in the case of many Pokémon, we can agree that they are indeed very hard to find .
Widely spread are:
Caterpie, Weedle, Pidgey, Rattata, Oddish, Paras, Zubat, Meowth, Psyduck, Magnemite, Gastly, Krabby, Ekans, Sandshrew, Nidoran F and M, Zubat, Machop, Quagsire, Machoke, Budew, Geodude, Voltorb, Goldeen, Magikarp, and Eevee
This autumn, BioWare’s story is set to continue. With the previous expansion, Knights of the Fallen Empire, the developer attempted to make the story more interesting and significant. With Knights of the Eternal Throne, they aim to continue this effort. Chapter 1 of the prequel story, “The Hunt,” is already available to play for free, including a level 60 character.
And since Star Wars: The Old Republic is celebrating its birthday, there are gifts for you. With the code CelebrationCantina16, which can be redeemed through your account, you will receive a glider.
What can we expect?
This is a direct continuation of the previous expansion, which you do not have to have played. Purchasers of the new campaign will also receive the old one to experience the entire story.
Not much is known about the contents yet, as they will be properly introduced at a later time. It is known that some old characters are returning, and there will also be co-op content.

In The Division, we present the equipment set FireCrest.
The Underground expansion brought four new, unique gear sets into the game. Agents on PS4 will have to wait until August 2nd for these, as the expansion will only be released for them a month later. Since Update 1.3, only the AlphaBridge set is available for all agents.
One of these four Underground-exclusive sets is called FireCrest. Agents are wondering: “Is it worth it or can it go?” Let’s take a look at FireCrest.

According to the patch notes, FireCrest is a set for an offensive playstyle, which allows you to light your enemies on fire. If you enjoyed playing with fire as a child, this set is meant for you.
FireCrest consists of a total of six individual pieces. You will mostly find them in the Underground, in Hard, Challenge, and Heroic modes. They can also be found in Underground containers. Other locations include the Dark Zone, especially supply drops, and the Assault Dragon’s Nest.
If you collect and equip several individual pieces, certain bonuses are activated. With four armor pieces, you unlock the unique talent. Here are the bonuses:
2 pieces: +3 incendiary grenade capacity. When you fully replenish your supply, you won’t run out of incendiary grenades as quickly.
3 pieces: +100% reload speed. This bonus is quite useful. The shorter the reload time, the more damage per time you can deal. Definitely worth considering.
4 pieces: Talent FireCrest: When you kill a burning target, you receive incendiary grenades for 10 seconds.
The design idea behind the set is clear: You should be able to heat things up for the enemies. You have more incendiary grenades in your inventory and additionally receive more when you eliminate burning enemies.
There are several ways to set enemies on fire: with incendiary grenades, with the seeker mine with air detonation, with the flamethrower turret, or even with explosive barrels near the enemies. However, the set is mainly designed to make enemies dance with incendiary grenades.
However, there are significant downsides: The talent activates far less often than one would wish. Burning enemies are only on fire for 3 seconds. The duration of this effect from special ammo was reduced from ten to three seconds with Update 1.3. And it is relatively rare to land the killing blow within this short time.
The YouTuber ThePwnstar4hire speculates that the talent for incendiary grenades was designed as they were before the update. Because currently, one hardly benefits from the FireCrest talent.
One could now consider whether one wants to transform into a half “Cleaner,” focusing solely on fire skills and fully aligning the build with the talent. However, this specialization is not really worthwhile, as 10 seconds of incendiary grenades are not outstanding—if the talent’s effect even activates at all.

If you still absolutely want to become an agent who throws incendiary grenades around, it’s worth taking a look at the Reclaimer set. This not only provides you with unlimited incendiary ammo, but the whole team also benefits from it.
In conclusion, the only interesting aspect of the FireCrest set is the 3-set bonus. The talent activates far too rarely—and when it does, it is not really useful. Some agents even refer to it as the worst set talent ever.
In Star Wars Battlefront , the two heroes are known who will come with the DLC “Death Star”.
Over the weekend, there was a Star Wars Celebration in London. Star Wars Battlefront also took advantage of it to get information out. DICE has now presented the two characters that will come with the DLC “Death Star”.

These are the new heroes coming with the Death Star DLC
Bossk
The bounty hunter Bossk is coming. He is a Trandoshan and more of a minor character in the films. The other hero is a certain Chewbacca, who takes on a significantly more central role in the films as a buddy of Han Solo and a rhetorical, well-articulated linguistic genius. No further details about the Wookiee and Bossk are available at the moment, except for a screenshot, which we have embedded as the title.
In honor of Chewie, we actually said “Hello” to Wookiee in the title, if the Wookiee translator is correct.
The Death Star DLC will be available in September for season pass holders at least. Those who buy it individually will then have to wait.
Further info on the future of Battlefront: DICE will be supported in the development of Star Wars Battlefront 2 by “Motive Studios”. They belong to EA, are based in Canada, and are still relatively young.

Insults in Overwatch are on the rise. Blizzard wants to improve the reporting system to tackle such people.
More feedback for “reporting” players in Overwatch
The longer Overwatch is on the market, the more the tone of interaction in all game modes changes. Where there was understanding and tolerance a few weeks ago, anger and dissatisfaction are now slowly reacting when players do not deliver the performance expected of them. In an interview with Kotaku, Jeff Kaplan explained what this is actually about and how they want to tackle it.
“For the most part, the Overwatch community has been fantastic. But toxicity is not only present in ranked play. As the game ages, the dark sides of people show more frequently, especially when there is a ranking at stake.”
With a hard fist against flamers. That remains Blizzard’s line.
When asked how they wanted to tackle this issue, Kaplan also responded.
“Some systems that are not public have been improved in recent weeks. Much of it is relatively secret – and there is a reason for that. If we reveal too much, players will find ways to circumvent these systems. For example, the “report player” feature has been made more aggressive since the introduction of ranked play. I wish there were more things visible to players without negative players benefiting from them.”
One possibility being considered is a notification once a reported player is penalized. “Currently, players are not informed when we take action and that is frustrating.” Many players feel as if they are just sending a report “into a void” that never has consequences. However, that is definitely not the case.
It may still take some time before noticeable improvements are experienced.

Even on racetracks, you can be successful with Pokémon GO!
Pokémon GO has just been released recently, but it is already being played all over the world. Strange locations for the monsters keep appearing on the internet. In our collection of the funniest images, videos, and tweets about Pokémon GO, you will get a good impression of it.
Nürburgring with Bat Plague
You wouldn’t have thought it, but even the Nürburgring is used to catch wild Pokémon. Although you catch Pokémon there, they do not have rally stripes in their fur or spoilers on their backs – they remain ordinary Pokémon that have just been caught under “interesting conditions”. The YouTuber Boosted Boris thought it would be a funny idea to hire a “Ring-Taxi” to catch a few of the little monsters on the racetrack. The video is definitely funny!

A VR shooter has been released on Steam, which shot directly to the bestseller lists upon launch.
Raw Data is the name of the first exclusive VR game that can boast remarkable success on Steam at release. Although it is still in Early Access, Raw Data is already receiving very positive reviews from users.
In this shooter, the basic concept is that you, with the headset on your head, destroy nasty robots with a variety of tools. In the Early Access version, you can choose between a few characters, each wielding firearms or swords. Additionally, four missions, various enemies, and several abilities are available to assault the foes.

Playing Pokémon GO outside, but the battery is running low? No problem! If you don’t have an outlet to charge your smartphone while you’re on the go, a power bank can help.
Smartphones and tablets have become increasingly popular today, especially when used on the go – particularly since Pokémon Go has been on everyone’s lips and hands. The problem is that while the technology of smartphones and tablets is constantly improving, the battery often doesn’t receive much attention. My Nokia 3310 has been sitting in a drawer in the basement for about 14 years and probably still has 3 out of 4 battery bars.
Mobile, compact charging stations are the solution
Most of you will be familiar with the term “power bank.” For those who can’t make sense of it, here’s a brief explanation:
A power bank is essentially a portable battery charging station that can be connected to your smartphone or tablet. Because a power bank is usually quite compact, it doesn’t take up much space and can easily be carried in a backpack, handbag, or even comfortably in your pocket. If the battery of your phone gets low while you’re on the move, you can connect the phone to the power bank using a charging cable to charge the battery. The good thing is, you’re not bound to a specific location, as you would be with an outlet, but can continue on your way comfortably.
Depending on the capacity of the power bank, you can charge your smartphone or tablet multiple times (sometimes more than 6 times) before you need to recharge the power bank at home.

The current Pokémon GO hype is bringing many trainers outside to hunt wild Pokémon with their smartphones. Such a hunt can last several hours, and most smartphones reach their limits if a single app is open continuously. So that you don’t have to interrupt your Pokémon adventure, but can continue searching for Tauboss, Pikachu, Dratini, and co. with the help of a power bank, there’s a power bank from Anker.
With the Anker PowerCore 20100, you can charge an iPhone 6 over seven times or a Galaxy S6 five times while on the go. With special PowerIQ and VoltageBoost technology, you charge your mobile devices at the fastest possible speed. Charging the power bank at the outlet takes only about 10 hours.

In the MMO shooter Destiny , a bizarre advertisement brings laughter, featuring a well-known streamer, YouTuber, and Destiny expert.
The name TeftyTeft – or simply Tefty – is likely familiar to the die-hard Destiny fans among you: He streams and publishes videos for the major English-language site “Planet Destiny” and also maintains his own YouTube and Twitch channels. Tefty is considered a top-tier PvP player.
On his own YouTube channel, Tefty initially only presented Destiny info videos. However, he has since gained more recognition and regularly hosts podcasts about Bungie’s MMO shooter Destiny.
Now a weird advertisement has emerged in which TeftyTeft plays a role. The video is already over 7 years old but only recently caused hearty laughter in a podcast. The spot was likely recorded to test a camera. See for yourself:

In the quirky video, Shari’s Berries are advertised, which apparently appeal to women much more than tickets to Hawaii. Even for those who don’t know Tefty, the spot is likely amusing to watch. But since it’s been revealed that the streamer is in this ad, the view counts have skyrocketed.
