Poliwag Community Day Bonus missed by Niantic, sparks backlash from Pokemon Go players – Update

Pokemon Go players have expressed disappointment in game developer Niantic for missing out on the Poliwag Community Day bonus. During the event, players were supposed to have an increased chance of encountering shiny versions of the Poliwag Pokemon. However, many players reported little to no increase in shiny encounters, leading to frustration and complaints on social media platforms. This has sparked a debate among players about Niantic’s ability to deliver on promises and provide a satisfactory gaming experience..

One trainer, however, did notice that Stardust reduction bonuses were working for a brief period of time. But after 5 PM, the Stardust bonus went away and there was no ability to make a third special trade, another Community Day bonus.

Players expressed frustration over the issues. One user stated regarding the Pokemon Go developer, “Niantic will be trying for the award for more consistent performance at this rate.”

Another player sarcastically remarked, “Be fair. It’s easy to get this wrong. It’s not like they do a community day every month.”
