A recent bug in Pokémon GO has left players unable to receive candy from Power Spots. Candy is a crucial bonus
for enhancing Pokémon in Dynamax battles.
The issue has made it difficult for trainers to power up their Pokémon, as candy is essential for leveling up Dynamax moves.
The bug impacts one of the game’s most important mechanics,
preventing players from adequately preparing for Dynamax encounters.
Power Spots were introduced with the Dynamax feature,
part of Pokémon GO’s Max Out season.
These locations function similarly to Gyms but are specifically for Dynamax battles.
When players place their Pokémon at a Power Spot,
they assist other trainers in fighting Dynamax Pokémon.
As a reward,
trainers receive candy for every battle their Pokémon participate in,
which is
essential for upgrading their Pokémon’s abilities.
Sadly,
due to the this Pokémon GO bug, this reward system is not functioning.Players who place their Pokémon at Power Spots have reported receiving no candy,
regardless of how many battles their Pokémon assist in.
This glitch has rendered the feature nearly useless, since candy is critical for powering up Pokémon for challenging battles, such as Dynamax Beldum encounters.
Pokémon GO players reactions and attempts to fix the bug
The bug was first brought to light on the
Silph Road subreddit, where u/Clarita8 detailed their unsuccessful attempts to resolve the issue.
Despite trying multiple fixes,
such as restarting the game, reinstalling it, and switching Pokémon,
the problem persisted.Other players haveechoed
these complaints, confirming
that their are not receiving rewards even when placed in high-activity Pokémon GO Power Spots due to this bug.
This issue has created significant frustration among players who rely on the candy earned from Power Spots to prepare their Pokémon for Dynamax battles.
The candy shortage is making it harder for trainers to level up their Pokémon’s Dynamax moves,
which are crucial for competitive gameplay.
As of now, there has been no official response from Niantic regarding the Pokémon GO bug.
Players who have contacted support reported no resolution, leaving many frustrated.
Until Niantic addresses the issue, trainers will find it more challenging to prepare their teams for futureDynamax encounters.
The community continues to wait for a patch that restores this essential feature.
