Summary
A committedPokemon GOplayer has reached level 34 just by sending Gifts. Catching Pokemon is the basis of thePokemon GOexperience, but there are different ways for players to spend their time in Niantic’s game.
With caught Pokemon, players can enter PvE battles such as raids or clashes against Team GO Rocket. For trainers who like an extra dose of challenge,Pokemon GO’s PvP is divided into different leagues. Trainers can also hatch eggs to obtain creatures and add them to their collections, join Contests, and send Gifts. Niantic added Gifts toPokemon GOin 2018, allowing players to send their friends a package of items. Players can evenusePokemon GOstickersthey got at events to decorate the Gift before sending it. The gamehas different sources of XP, but one trainer has chosen a very unusual way to level up their account.
Reddit user PrestyRS highlighted aPokemon GOplayer who hit level 34 just by sending Gifts. The screenshot shared shows the player’s profile with 0 battles done, with the OP adding that they’ve also never spun any PokeStops or have any Pokemon other than a Bulbasaur. In the comments, the Redditor says that this player has been on their friends list for six months. They also said that they have never received a Gift from the player, nor have they seen him send a Gift to other people. Instead, all they do to level up their account is send thePokemon GOGifts they get.
The unique way of leveling up inPokemon GOsurprised some trainers, who praised the player’s willpower. After all, the player needs to have enough friends to get presents and open them until they reach level 34, which requires patience. If the trainer doesn’t have one, they can get Gifts by spinning PokeStops, or if their Buddy Pokemon finds one.Pokemon GOGifts contain an assortment of items, including Poke Balls, Max Revive, 7 km eggs, and the postcard from the PokeStop where the Gift was obtained. The latter is an extremely useful item, as collecting postcards is the only way tocomplete the Vivillon collection inPokemon GO.
While thePokemon GOplayer plans to reach level 40 just by sending gifts, other trainers don’t have to wait to earn XP in the augmented reality game. This month,Pokemon GOconfirmed two more Gen 9 Pokemonthat will soon be added in a new event. Next month also sees the anticipated debut of Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia with the Pokemon GO Tour 2024, along with the debut of new shinies.
