How Fast Can You Walk in Pokemon GO? Unveiling the Speed Limit
Last updated
Ever wondered just how fast you can walk in Pokemon GO without missing out on all the fun? Let’s dive into this playful query and get you up to speed (pun intended) with everything you need to know about staying active in the world of Pokemon GO, where movement is key to catching ’em all!
So, how swiftly can you stride through your neighborhood to ensure you’re optimizing your Pokemon catching spree? Read on, as we break it down for you!
The Short Answer: Optimal Walking Speed in Pokemon GO
Pokemon GO’s magic number when it comes to walking speed is 10.5 km/h (about 6.5 mph). This is the speed limit that the game considers as ‘walking’ and allows you to interact with the most features, including hatching eggs and triggering buddy candy.
Going faster than this? The game might think you’re in a car or on a bike, which can limit some of the fun parts of Pokemon GO, like encountering wild Pokemons. Keep it chill and steady to make the most out of your adventure!
Catching Pokemons at the Perfect Pace
Staying within the sweet spot of under 10.5 km/h not only ensures that you’re racking up those steps to hatch eggs but also maximizes your chances of catching as many Pokemons as possible. Plus, it’s a great way to enjoy the scenic route of your local parks, streets, and hidden spots where Pokemons love to hang out.
Remember, the joy of Pokemon GO is in the exploration and the unexpected encounters that come with it. So, lace up those sneakers and keep your pace in check for the best gaming experience.
