Chip and Cern dive back into the craze that is Pokemon Go! If
you missed the first
Pokemon Go podcast
be sure to listen to that. If you need some Chip and Cern Show swag
like hats, and shirts check out the shop.
Chip and Cern are drinking
Saint Archer Double IPA.
They are already off topic talking about how beer is now coming in
cans. Bottles used to be the craze back in the day, but cans are
making a comeback.
Here is where
Chip
and Cern say you should drink a can or a bottle. Chip peels his
labels. Cern rubs the top label.
Bar: Bottle
Inside watching the game: can or bottle
BBQ: Bottle
Park: Can
Ok Chip and Cern are back on focus. After a few more weeks of
playing Pokemon Go Chip and Cern give you a state of the union and
an update on some stats.
Both Chip and Cern were under level 10 and Cern’s best Pokemon
was level 400. Cern has been logging some serious hours in Pokemon
to try to catch up with the rest of the guys. You can move up
levels pretty quickly in the beginning, but once you get his above
level 20 you need over 100k of XP.
Chip asks Cern what makes the game fun for Cern. Catching the
Pokemon, evolving or leveling up. Cern likes to catch a rare
Pokemon with decent CP, so he can be a big swinging dick at the
local gyms. Chip enjoys catching different Pokemon and getting big
CP ones. He likes to evolve them and sometimes battle in the gyms.
Cern has yet to fight in the gym because his Pokemon are at a lower
level than most others around. Cern’s brother fucking swooped in
when a gym was pending on being taken over. Major dick move, but he
got his gym in the gym. Chip has had a gym he took down
sniped.
Cern doesn’t live in a rural area, but not a massive city like
San Francisco. When he went to the Giants game he was in awe of all
the Pokestops around. On Chip’s drive into Cern’s neighborhood he
passed two Pokestops in 5 miles. At Chip’s desk in San Francisco he
has two Pokestops always full of lures.
Chip and Cern had their erect, throbbing cocks out and were
comparing their Pokedexs and Cern had less, but Chip hadn’t even
seen a good amount of the ones that Cern has.
Cern lives next to a lake, so there are some water Pokemon,
but nothing like he saw in Oakland on the way to the Giants game.
Cern has a lot of Pickachu’s and Chip has only found one. Chip was
pissed he can’t get more that one of those yellow fuckers. Cern’s
brother was surprised to see several Charmander around Cern’s
neighborhood.
Niantac, pronounced knee-in-tac, had a really hard time when
the game first was released because their servers were getting
fucked harder than
Pam Anderson’s
90’s bush as Chip put it. Tommy Lee was deep dicking the Niantac
servers.
They have since done some app updates that have fixed a lot of
the issues, but it exposed a bug which would tell you when a
Pokemon was close. This was the “three step bug” where it would
always show 3 steps no matter how close you were to a Pokemon. The
Reddit folks, a fickle bunch,
demand a response and tons of shit from this company who made a
free game which they are enjoying. Fuck them says Chip.
Cern used
Pokevision. It
was a map that used API/GPS to tell you where people had caught a
Pokemon. It was a separate app and would show you how long ago
someone caught a Pokemon and how much time was left before that
Pokemon was spawning was over. Chip asks if that takes away from
the spirit of the game. Cern says no because it helps him meet his
goal of catching them all. PokeVision was shut down by Niantac
which caused a huge issue because it was causing a lot of issues
with the servers.
Cern asks Chip what his best Pokemon is now. Level 1400
Vaperon. Chip got some new lucky eggs which doubles your XP for 30
mins. Chip saved up all his evolves, Pidgeys and everything to
maximize his XP in that 30 mins. Chip had saved up and spent the
lucky egg on his lunch and walked down to the Ferry Building and
got about 55k XP in 30 mins. Chip finished and it was cool to get
all these new Pokemon who filled out his Pokedex. Cern’s best is
also Vaperon around 8-900.
People are hoping that trading and battling other trainers is
a new feature.
The old Gameboys you could link up your Gameboys with a USB
type cable and battle each other. Chip had one of the OG Gameboys,
but about 5 years after they came out.
Cern speaks of a new Nintendo that has 60 games and is about
60 bucks. You can plug it into your TV and play all the
classics.
Chip found that the original Gameboy cost $89.99 in July of
1989. There is no way Chip’s parents bought his this thing brand
new. In 1995 after tons of new Gameboys came out, Chip’s parents
finally bought a Gameboy at a garage sale for $10 bucks. The first
game they bought was Madden ’95 and his parents were amazed how
much the game cost, so they realized they made a big mistake with
the Gameboy purchase.
Chip felt that using the lucky eggs and getting tons of XP and
walking back from the Ferry Building he wasn’t as into the game.
The game won’t be fun for Chip if he is just catching tons of
Pidgeys just to level up.
Cern recalls when he caught his first Charmander and was so
excited. He got his Great Ball ready and caught that fiery bastard.
Chip recalls of a time when a Pidgey escaped multiple Ultra Balls
because Chip was trying to catch him just on principle.
The newest update fixed the ability to catch of some Pokemon.
Chip has noticed that there are a more diverse batch of Pokemon
since the new updates.
There was a story that broke that someone in Idaho caught a
rare bird. Chip has no idea of any Pokemon above the 150 basic
ones. They caught this rare ice bird and then Niantac revoked the
birds from the trainers accounts. Chip wouldn’t be posting all over
Facebook about how he caught this glitch Pokemon. Chip tells Cern
how to properly pronounce Niantac. If Chip caught this rare Pokemon
he would tell Cern and then dominate some local gyms. Chip relates
it to having a big 12” dong and having it out at a family reunion
that is how proud he would be.
Chip takes it on a weird tangent about finding things that
aren’t yours. Chip sets the story of finding some cash in the store
and when to return it. Chip will look around to see if there is
anyone nearby to give the money back to. No amount of money would
Chip or Cern turn into the store. If the money was in a money clip
he would turn it in as would Cern. Chip found $13 bucks when
walking his dogs one night and he finds the needs to share with
everyone in this podcast. That sorta related to Pokemon, except
that they found something that wasn’t theirs. Cern still struggles
to pronounce Niantac, which could be from the Saint Archer Double
IPA. Chip and Cern are #TeamInstinct.
