Pokémon GO: This bug is currently preventing players from leveling

Pokémon GO

At the moment there is more than just cause for joy for Pokémon GO players. The big environmental week is currently taking place with some bonuses and a special pocket monster. But at the same time, a very specific mistake causes some displeasure among the fans. This mainly affects those players who are already on high levels with their characters.

Whoever wants to reach level 45 with his character in Pokémon GO not only has to collect a lot of experience points, but also among other things Defeat a certain number of rocket buffs and rocket bosses. Exactly there are even 100 bullies and 50 bosses. However, these NPCs are currently not available in Pokémon GO. Niantic had to remove this from the game or deactivate it about two weeks ago, as many players encountered a critical error as soon as they tried to start a Rocket encounter. In the worst case, the client would freeze and a restart was necessary. So it is currently not possible to complete the challenge for reaching level 45, so that there is a compulsory pause while leveling. The anger and frustration of many fans who venture out on Reddit are correspondingly great.

There seems to be no solution to this problem in the near future To be sight. The development studio Niantic has not yet announced when the return of the Rocket characters in Pokémon GO is to be expected.

Pokemon Go: How To Catch Binacle And Shiny Trubbish

Pokemon Go's Sustainability Week is underway until April 25. Not only does the event feature new Research tasks and other bonuses, but it also gives players their first chance to catch two new Pokemon in the mobile game: Binacle and Shiny Trubbish. If you're looking to add either monster to your collection, here are some tips to help you catch Binacle and Shiny Trubbish during Sustainability Week.

How To Catch Binacle

Both Binacle and its evolved form, Barbaracle, have arrived in Pokemon Go as part of the Sustainability Week event. The Rock/Water types were first introduced in Pokemon X and Y, making them the latest Gen 6 monsters to appear in Pokemon Go.


You can find Binacle one of three ways during Sustainability Week. First, you can encounter it in the wild. This will require a bit of luck, since you can't tell what Pokemon will spawn at any given time, but you can increase your chances of finding one by using an Incense.

You can also encounter Binacle in Raids. The Gen 6 Pokemon will appear as a one-star Raid boss throughout Sustainability Week, so keep checking Gyms if you're hoping to catch it. One-star Raids can easily be completed solo, so you won't need to team up with any other players to defeat Binacle (although you will need to have a Raid Pass to participate in the Raid).


Finally, you can find Binacle by completing certain Research tasks during Sustainability Week. The Water/Rock Pokemon will appear as your reward when you complete the Use 3 Golden Razz Berries to Help Catch Pokemon Field Research task. This requires a bit of luck as well, however, as you need to first pull the task from a PokeStop. You'll also encounter Binacle during the third step of the Sustainability Week Timed Research line.

How To Catch Shiny Trubbish

While Trubbish has been available in Pokemon Go for some time now, Sustainability Week marks your first chance to catch its Shiny variant. Shiny Trubbish is much bluer in appearance than standard Trubbish, so you should be able to tell immediately when you've found one. Like Binacle, however, it'll take a bit of work to catch.


There are three possible ways to encounter Shiny Trubbish during Sustainability Week. First, the Pokemon will appear in the wild throughout the event. Since Pokemon spawns are random, you'll increase your chances of finding one by using an Incense. However, you won't be able to tell if Trubbish is Shiny or not until you've tapped on the Pokemon and begun the encounter, so be sure to tap on every Trubbish you see if you're looking for a Shiny.


Like Binacle, Trubbish will also appear as a one-star Raid boss during Sustainability Week. Since you can't tell if Trubbish is Shiny or not until you've made it to the catching phase, you'll need to complete each Trubbish Raid you find to increase your chances of encountering a Shiny.


Finally, you can also hatch Trubbish from 5 km eggs. However, the Trubbish you hatch aren't guaranteed to hatch, so you'll likely be better off trying to find one in the wild or in Raids. Fortunately, Shiny Trubbish will still be available even after Sustainability Week ends, so you'll still have a chance to find one following the event.
