6 years for an event quest in Pokémon Go. A player has now achieved this. He always failed at a specific task. Because this requires you to catch Pokémon very skillfully. But the player simply couldn’t manage that.
Pokémon Go thrives on tasks and missions for which you receive specific rewards. But one player didn’t have it particularly easy: The user Loba_Tiddies reports now on Reddit that it took him almost 6 years to complete an event. This was mainly due to a single task that he just couldn’t solve.
Because a player can’t aim, it takes him 6 years for an event
What task became the problem? In the event tasks in Pokémon Go, there are missions where you need to catch Pokémon with skillful throws. The better you throw and the more accurately you hit the Pokémon, the higher the throws are rated. Pay attention to the catch circle when catching: The smaller it gets, the harder it is to hit the monster. Currently, there are three ratings:
- Good throws
- Great throws
- Fabulous throws
The mentioned player had to achieve at least 3 great throws in a row for his task. But this posed a major problem for him, as he explained that he is “bad at aiming.” Therefore, it took almost 6 years for him to finally complete the event from 2019.
Is there a trick for better throws? Yes, a player explains that a surprising trick actually helped him. He writes on Reddit.com:
For throws in a streak quest, you should click on the Pokémon, turn on airplane mode, and throw your ball.
If it is the desired throw, turn the internet back on; if you don’t succeed, close the game, turn the internet back on, and reopen the game… this way you won’t lose your streak.
I remember how I struggled to make 3 fabulous throws in a row and read that somewhere; it really helped.
