im very angry abut the 5 minute rule. i am talking about the only 5 minutes you get to grab an egg. i have wasted two enigma stones i worked hard to get. the 1 pokemon i got from it was because the lab was empty so there was nobody else there. my friend found 3 legendary pokemon in the safary zone and i cant get them in the lab when i use the enigma stone. THIS IS NOT FARE.

i want to see it increased. maybe like 10 or 15 minutes. or an increase in the chance to find your pokemon.

its not only...i got some eggs after the 5 minutes...

before this rule after summoning an egg, anyone was able to adobt that egg

[Spades Slick]

Seriously, it was a lot more infuriating in the first year or so of the site being active. I suggesting waiting to use any future summoning items until a) the lab is empty again, b) you become familiar with the summonable egg descriptions, or c) you fill up your Pokedex with non-summonable egg entries so you can use Repels more efficiently. Many, MANY people have been able to claim their summon eggs with relative ease using one of the above methods, so it's not really a system that needs much changing.

[Killer Zylos Wol...]

Not fare? It's nothing but fare.

You have a whole 5 minutes to yourself to find your egg. It's you're choice how you use those minutes. You should just stay in the lab and refresh quickly once you release your egg isn't there.

Of course you aren't going to have a 100% guarantee of getting it, since this allows others to get it for themselves. Once the five minutes are up, you basically lost your chance, you can still get lucky and find it after that though.

This is as fair as it possibly can be.

[Big Bidoof]

It's plenty "fare," and there isn't any need to increase it.

And for some statistics, the number of successful summons is nearly three times as big as the number of failed attempts, so the numbers back this up as well, yup yup.

[Eucharistica]

If it stresses you out so much, look up the descriptions of every legend that can be summoned. Just rummage around google and you'll eventually find it. Nobody probably has a perfect summoning record, everyone loses at least one summon, so all I can say is deal with it, or just don't summon.

[Tatzelwyrm]

Rofl, it's plenty fair. Try being on the site back when that rule didn't exist. As in, as soon as you summoned something, you had to refresh like mad and hope to find the sucker before someone else did, since you did not have that five minute safe period. That was stressful then, trying to catch your summons before the other lab hunters.

Sometimes, you don't see your summons now because it simply never comes up amidst the other eggs (It happens, it's happened to me too, no big deal), but you get five minutes GUARANTEED that you are the only person able to see that egg, should it come up on a refresh. That is a whole lot more fair than "this egg will be visible to everyone else in the lab as soon as you choose to use your summon item lolol."



As others have said, spend some time making yourself familiar with legendary descriptions, it helps tremendously.

[Superbob]

I'm in the top 20 for summons failed and I see nothing wrong with the system. All my fails are because of my stupidity.

[Toda]

How is this a question or help?

You should be happy about the 5 minutes. Before that was implemented, you didn't get anything. A second after you summoned, someone else could have taken it.

Remember, legendary aren't suppose to be easy to get. That's what makes them Legends.

Closing.
