On the evening of yesterday (25th) Taiwan time, the world’s first “Pokémon Go” LV 50 player was born. It was FleeceKing from Australia.
Niantic increased the level limit of “Pokémon Go” from 40 to 50 in December 2020, which also attracted a new wave of players to compete for level, but this process is not only about earning XP, but also having to complete the tasks specified by the system. Conditions can be upgraded, these tasks are not easy to solve, and because of system limitations, some require a certain amount of time to achieve.
However, when a small number of players reached level 48, they encountered a bug. When they were about to reach level 49, their progress would be reset due to the bug. After FleeceKing’s report was the first to report, Niantic started repairs, and Niantic’s last choice It is to force all players who have reached the standard to manually upgrade to level 49.
@NianticHelp I had sent over 100 gifts to friends today, and for absolutely no reason whatsoever you have reset my progress towards level 49. This is incredibly discouraging and completely unfair to have my progress taken away from me. Fix this ASAP! pic.twitter.com/fVr1yV8zxY

Therefore, the competition for the top players is 49-50. In addition to the experience value at this stage, the player must complete 999 perfect captures, obtain 5 legendary Pokémon, and use a CP of less than 2,500 to knock down 3 GO rockets. The cadre of the team.
It evolved into FleeceKing competing with another player, Lauren Bertoni, who also came from Australia. FleeceKing won by a small margin and became the first player in the world to reach level 50. He finally followed his mother to live on Twitch and watched at the same time. More than 5,000 spectators shared the joy together.
However, because Niantic’s approach is not to go back to the previous progress of the qualified players, but to take a head-to-head approach, which has caused some players to complain. It can only be said that FleeceKing’s first in the world is really stormy.
