HUNDO or SHUNDO Catching a hundo (a Pokémon with perfect IVs) or the even more elusive shundo (a shiny Pokémon with perfect IVs) is a truly special experience in Pokémon GO. It's a moment that makes all the hours of grinding and searching worthwhile. These Pokémon represent the pinnacle of potential, boasting maximum stats that make them powerhouses in battles and raids. The rarity of encountering such a Pokémon, combined with the thrill of finally catching it, creates a feeling of accomplishment and pride. Whether you're a dedicated collector or a competitive battler, a hundo or shundo is a prized possession that adds a unique sparkle to your Pokémon journey.

Pokémon Go is an inclusive game and we would like our members to reflect that. APPROPRIATE LANGUAGE Pokémon Go is a game targeted for adults as well as children. Due to this inappropriate conversations will not be allowed either in person or online. We would hope to make this group appropriate for children as well as adults.

To be eligible, though, they will need to be accompanied by a guardian. OBEY ALL TRAFFIC RULES As this group desires to be a positive influence on the community, members should follow all pedestrian and traffic rules. This is an especially important rule as otherwise the safety of our members and the community are at risk. NO CHEATING Cheating in a game such as Pokémon Go cheapens the hard work of other players. Due to this none of these shall be allowed in this group: cheating, talking about cheating, or being caught cheating. Members engaged with this activity will be removed from the group. This includes talking about or engaging in SPOOFING (FLYING), MULTI-ACCOUNTING, ACCOUNT SHARING, or MAP SCANNERS. NO DISCUSSION OF THIRD PARTY APPS While some of these apps are safe... now, they could easily change something to constitute cheating in Niantic's Terms of Service. Due to this, talking about third party apps of any kind is prohibited during a meetup or on our social media. ALWAYS FOLLOW TERMS OF SERVICE Always follow Terms of Service for Facebook, Campfire, Wayfarer, and Pokémon GO.
