"How to excite your Good buddy within 35 mins w/o walking during event"

#PokemonGO: You need to have a friend to battle with you, or an alt account. Or, you should be able to reach a gym so you can battle it. Or, you can risk running your buddy in current GBL.TL;DR: 1. Take a snapshot, play, feed (to the full), do training battle, and do pvp or gym battle or GBL(with your buddy).After 5-10 mins of pvp/gym battle, take another snapshot. You can skip this step if you did both pvp/gym battle.After 30 mins of first snapshot, do another round of snapshot, play, feed, do training battle, do pvp/gym battle/GBL.​This method can also be applied to Great/Ultra buddies, but they bring souvenir/present so often (9 points each!) so when they bring it both you don't need to wait 30 mins.It's important that when you switch a buddy in, your buddy starts at 2 EP (Emotion Point) not 0 EP, as long as it's not brand-new buddy . That means we need to earn only 30 more EP.You take a snapshot, play, feed (to the full), do training battle, do pvp or gym battle or do a GBL battle with your buddy included. Now you should FINISH the battles to the end to earn heart/EP. That's 3*5=15 EP, so your buddy is at 17 EP. It should have something like this face: ^o^ (yet without hearts around face). Usually this takes less than 5 minutes. There's a report that you EP also doens't count when your buddy isn't on the map, like hearts. So make sure you feed it to the full gauge.You can check how much EP each interaction gives in https://ift.tt/36Z6dDj (You should multiply them by 3 during this event)Another thing you need to remember is EP decays every 25 mins if you don't interact. ( Before excited state. See https://ift.tt/2Kld94r ) 1 EP is crucial here, as we need to earn 30=3*10 EP and if we lose 1 EP we would need one more activity. So after 5-10 mins of pvp/gym battle, you take snapshot of your buddy again, to prevent it's EP decay. (It doesn't matter if you did two types of battle. You can let it decay.)And after 30 mins of first round of interaction, you repeat snapshot, play, feed (you only need to feed one berry) , do training battle, do pvp or gym battle or GBL. You earn 15 points, thereby achieving 32 EP. Now you can start to walk to enjoy double hearts.​Thanks for people who commented on my last deleted post, I was ignorant. via /r/TheSilphRoad https://ift.tt/2xDVUZu
