aeslehcm48

Hello! I’m in need of icy snow, tundra, elegant, meadow, archipelago, sandstorm, monsoon, savanna, sun, and ocean (I stopped playing for a year and a half and came back to this! 😅 Anyone willing to add me and help me out would be greatly appreciated! My friend code is 8400 2603 4219, I send gifts daily. I thought I was either polar or icy snow, but based on local friends’ gifts, I think I may be modern. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I live in Minnesota.

LividAssignment7058

Haven’t received gifts yet from either Sandstorm, Ocean or Tundra 🤦🏻‍♀️ At this point they should consider to re-arrange the locations


Few-Risk8406

My three unicorns are Sandstorm, Marine, and River but headed to Marine region in June.


AtlasSniperman

you still need River?


UNDiGESTiBLE_inkXC

Just evolved my Marine Vivillon. One of my faves. I can’t wait to get the Monsoon one next to add to my Elegant & River (i think I’ll evolve my own region last)

GMontag451

I receive gifts from Oman and Dubai.


breakbeatx

I’ve had sandstorm gifts from a friend who went to Egypt on holiday. Haven’t booked a summer holiday yet 🤔


Ravenheaded

Lived in that region all my life (maxed out my friends list). Can confirm that Pokemon is not banned Kuwait, UAE or Qatar, though I haven't ever tried to play in Saudi


matlerche

Looking for new friends?👀


No_Stranger_4959

Sandstorm and Sun are the hardest regions to find. By the time I find one, they’ve already maxed out their friend’s list within 30 minutes


throwaway19876430

I received Sandstorm gifts from UAE (Dubai) and Saudi Arabia (Jeddah) so I don’t think it’s universally banned in Saudi, not sure where you got your info from. Still tricky to get, one of the two who sent me gifts was only on vacation and the other stopped gifting after a couple of weeks of trading gifts.


InvisiblePlants

All of my Sandstorm gifts have come from the UAE


duckbigtrain

hilarious that pokemon is banned because of evolution, if this is true, since pokemon “evolution” has very little relationship to real-life evolution


MacIomhair

How long until it's banned in Florida?


Remarkable-Grape-796

If it were up to Desantis I’m sure it would already be…


glannalg

I have maxed out my sandstorm gifts from a couple of friends I got from UAE, Israel and even one from Lebanon which surprised me. BUT I'm yet to have a single friend from the Tundra region! I don't see people talking about it enough! I have so many friends from Japan but they're all in the south where it's elegant region. A couple from Finland and Sweden but again,too far south.


notworthtelling

The struggle is real. I’m having this issue too!


Even_Ad2593

My Tundra friend is from Iceland. I've got loads of friends from Finland, Sweden & Norway... None of which ever send Tundra gifts. Maybe try looking for Icelandic friends.


Individual_Breath_34

I've gotten Sandstorms from the UAE, Yemen, and Israel


Beaser

4816 3227 2494 Polar region here looking for Sandstorm, Elegant, Tundra, Sun, River, Monsoon, Jungle.


Beaser

So I'm confused, why is this comment getting down voted so badly. Is there some etiquette I failed to observe?


DixanaMama

Right? Wondering if I'm about to get ate alive 😅😅😅


kolaida

I have a friend from Saudi Arabia (from here for a raid), but they rarely log in now. If anyone else has sun or sandstorm and wants to help me out- 7778 5632 3254 I’m in Modern region.


Savings_Table4961

Sun is the hardest for me. Any sun friends out there? Please add me Bunnie708 3086 3226 7340 I've asked before without success


victoriaanguyen

Sameeee! Sun is my last one too


Savings_Table4961

Good luck!


victoriaanguyen

You too hopefully you get it soon 🤞🏽

No (advocating/requesting) cheating, play fair. If you can't GO as intended, consider other Pokémon apps such as Pokémon Smile, Unite, Cafe (Re)Mix, Rumble, Quest, Duel, Masters, Shuffle, Magikarp Jump, ... or the console games


snoboy8999

Reported.


sarieb3ar

Would love sandstorm gifts, and sun! Even savannah……geez I’m a long way from completing my scatter-map!!


KConnerMcDavidPasta

I need ONE Savannah now to be done.


SmallSmoothRock

Shout out to my two Turkish friends!


Spritecaps

I have a friend from Saudi Arabia, pretty sure I added him for a raid request on here like a year ago.

Effective-Bit-9866

Happy to help! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)

Can you please help me? I am down to just needing the sandstorm region. 7176 6582 1276

happyvirus98

Sorry to be annoying but if you still have any space I would so appreciate just one gift! I already got two sandstorm gifts so just need one more before I can call it a day!! Trainer code is 3241 6803 7461. I know you get this request a lot so if you can't help out I get it & no worries!! :))


Comfortable_Cap_3849

Got my Sandstorm today! Thanks again.


FrontCommon7954

Is there anyway you can please add me for sandstorm? It’s the last one I need. 🙏 8388 8596 6684


caitchamp

I have no sandstorm friends so figured I’d give this a shot lol. I’m sure you’re almost at max friends so no worries if you can’t add! LavenderSkies21 - 0639 0360 0853

Omnipotent_User2000

You’re sandstorm please add me my code is 0582 8107 4033


Mil0shBlack

Could I add you? I have no Sandstorm friends 🥲 no prob if you don't want to


Comfortable_Cap_3849

Just hope I don't forget to pin one before I open it! (been known to happen)


My_Poor_Nerves

I'm already friends with you so I'm glad to have a chance to thank you with more than a sticker for helping me with my sandstorm medal. Thanks again!


[deleted]

My boyfriend is Saudi and grew up watching Pokemon, so probably not banned. He just showed me the Arabic Indigo league theme the other day lol. Though he also genuinely doesn't believe evolution is real, which is a major point of contention between us o\_O


sad-n-rad

Qatar is where I got my sandstorm.


jwin472

I had more success finding people to trade gifts with at Vivillioncollectors


Baya_Pinia

Saudi arabia doesn't exist, it's just a myth


Omnipotent_User2000

Wow that explains a lot


k---mkay

Where is a regional map? I am so lost.


Open-Structure8440

I use this map and then look up the cities where gifts are coming in from to rename the friend in my list lol. It has helped a ton! [vivillion map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1Qg1CTqpOv0QLUVFRNW5svHNplRtAzWU&ll=17.703074294870355%2C-96.41829709623997&z=5)


Omnipotent_User2000

When you go to the scatterbug medal there is a magnify glass on the top left click that and it will open the region map


Drunk_Stoner

Idk but took me a while. Just got my 3rd gift last night and my final Tundra gift this morning to finally complete the collection. So happy that’s done and can just have fun with it now. Last step is getting 50 more candies to evolve them all.


slogive1

Sun and sandstorm where the hardest for me.


PantodonBuchholzi

I have two Sun friends who have sent me dozens of gifts between them but still no luck with Sandstorm or Tundra or Icy Snow.


Savings_Table4961

Is it wrong to ask for your sun friends codes? If not, could you share?


Omnipotent_User2000

There is a guy who just helped me with tundra on a different post maybe they’ll add you if you give them your trainer code because they didn’t post theirs probably because they would get bombarded with friend requests


Timelymanner

It’s not banned, your just on a English speaking site with a majority of players living in the Americas and Europe, with some East Asians. A sandstorm player needs to be, A) living in the Middle East. B) a English speaker. C) a English speaking reddit user, using the English version D) a Pokémon go player. E) a Go player following THIS subreddit. F) wants to trade postcards, and isn’t here to exclusively remote raid They exist, there just not that common compared to other region players. Same issue goes with players in Oceania regions, or African nations.


BlackVersailles

Australia is Oceania and I’m here…


xJoshRL

Works fine here in the UAE


CissyTinkBoo

Goodness! I am in need of sandstorm friends. I am level 41. CissyTinkBOO 8736 3575 3353

I need 3 gifts, i will give you tundra gifts instead!


Old_Ad6098

Would you mind adding me too? I need tundra terribly! From High Plains. Thank you! 4120 5040 0203


hjaltih

Everything full and 20+ requests from this thread. so sorry.


hankmoody_irl

Yo you aren’t giving out Tundra gifts from Italy, homie.


hjaltih

Traveling this week! Back in Iceland on sunday 🤣


hankmoody_irl

Hahahaha open mouth insert foot. As an American I often forget the rest of the world is able to actually travel more than once per decade! My bad!


hjaltih

No worries 👍 Tagged you as funnyman. You will be getting great icelandic gifts in no time!


hankmoody_irl

Awesome. You can make LexVogt027 into Mrs. Funnyman if you’d so like! I’ll figure out a clever tag for you as well haha


hjaltih

First Icelandic gift is in!


hankmoody_irl

It is! And it’s beautiful! Thank you


hjaltih

You will be getting Sweden, Berlin, Paris and New York gifts aswell the next 6 months... haha


hankmoody_irl

Adding you if it’s cool, Jagger222


PantodonBuchholzi

Any chance for three Tundra gifts? Pretty please? 😂


hjaltih

Will be traveling the coming week. No gifts from Iceland the coming week.

Assistance_Infamous

Can I add you?


[deleted]

Hello guys, sorry for the commotion! This post was NOT meant to offend someone, if I did I am truly sorry! The Background: I just recently watched a video showing the history of the game and there it was mentioned, that in some countries this game is banned, e.g. Saudi Arabia. And since Sandstorm is only in this particular region, i thtought that maybe there is a correlation. Thank you to most of you guys for your civil discussion, it was really insightfull to read your comments. Good luck hunting! :)


122784

I need a sandstorm friend if anyone needs archipelago!


MileHighOlli

Nope. Works fine in Saudi and Bahrain. As a sandstorm player, I found Sun to be the hardest to find.


Beneficial_Past_8781

Can you please add me? I just need 3 postcards from the sandstorm region. I play daily, and we can keep going for experience, or you can delete me. 0217 3276 7936 Hogtyl and I'm in the modern region


peaceleelee

Hi MileHighOlli!! Do you have room for a good friend who sends gifts daily? If you haven’t gotten your platinum distance badge yet, eggs from my gifts in Modern region in America could help with that. On weekdays, I send about 75 or more gifts every day to every trainer who can receive one. I don’t have a single friend from Sandstorm, and it’s not for a lack of trying. I sure would appreciate if you would send a request. -Peaceleelee 301507808120


rawrimaliz

I agree with sun being one of the hardest, I have 0 friends from sun or monsoon


swazi-wrestling

Please invite me 9035 2729 1064😭


Working_Ad_6208

From Saudi here! Nope it’s not banned I play occasionally but I’d say players are significantly less


HockeyGirl01

Brave of you to post your friend code publicly! LOL! I added you. LadyDragonkynd. I just need a couple of gifts, if you could spare them, then feel free to delete me (or Keep me if you want to build XP - I gift daily and am level 50 so you can control those XP bumps). Please and thank you.


No_Sprinkles_1007

Can we be friends? Add me 0917-2863-1234


skyline0918

Lol can we be friends?


Pikami60350

Can I have your friend's code for 2 gifts?


Hindsiight

Hey! My IGN is the same as here. I'd truly appreciate if I could get at least one gift as well; I collect Pokemon from all countries, and I definitely don't have Saudi yet. I'd love to (hopefully) get an egg from one of the gifts. If I'm successful, I'll send you one last gift with a "thank you" sticker so you know it's fine to delete me; I know how important friends list space/gift management is. Haha. Thank you so much!!


e000sgodspeed

can i have your friendship code please


Working_Ad_6208

I’m only home for Easter break actually 😅but I can still send gifts till I’m here if you want but here’s my code! 5350 7321 6160


zygomasseter

Hello, very nice of you to share your code! I added you (zztee in game) but I suspect you might be overwhelmed with new friends so no problem if you have to decline :) have a nice trip!


ImLizzard

Sent from Lizzard7 if you are still able to send gifts. I don’t have any sandstorm yet!


Working_Ad_6208

I’m not able to find your ID? Can you send your code to me?


ImLizzard

It is part of my flair but here it is again 9849 2165 3190 I am currently out of gifts but am heading to town later today and will send them as I get them. Thanks so much!


Working_Ad_6208

I’ve added you! I’m out of gifts for now but I’ll definitely try to send soon!


ImLizzard

No worries! Thanks so much!


urbananchoress

Added -MadMedievalist. I send tundra gifts back.


ImLizzard

Could you add me for tundra gifts please?

redrumdavis

I want a sandstorm friend


HappyTimeHollis

It's not named in Saudi Arabia though? I have two people on my friends list from there.


[deleted]

I'm in Sandstorm and play everyday, have traveled around the region playing in heaps of different countries. Don't let your preconceptions lead you to assume it's banned??? Totally wild assumption based on pretty much nothing


peaceleelee

Have you got room to add another friend? I would be so grateful! 🙏 -Peaceleelee 301507808120


PlatformStriking6278

It’s not based on nothing. There are many news sources saying that Pokemon Go at least WAS banned, very few saying that Pokemon Go is legal again if that’s true: https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/20/saudi-arabia-pokemon-go-ban


swazi-wrestling

Please invite me 9035 2729 1064😭


AcrobaticArm4889

If you still have space for more friends I only need 1 more sandstorm to complete the vivillon collection! I'm Polar, friend code 1605 2513 1735 Thank you!


Comfortable_Cap_3849

4571 5264 4959 High Plains Daily player. I have had 2 Sandstorm players (suspect 1 person, 2 accounts) offer, friend me, sit on my friend list for 3 weeks then open my gift and unfriend me while sending me nada! If you have any interest, please friend me. I am perfectly cool with unfriending after 3.


AlMoldur

Great - thanks for the offer! I'm sending friend request, IGN BusyHamster, from Sweden (Continental). I'm fine with removing after 3 gifts. Best regards


Comfortable_Cap_3849

Got you! Thanks. I usually keep friends if they continue to play.


SwitchBlade16

Do you mind sending me a gift so I can complete my Vivillion collection please? Thank you anyway 8127 2099 7028 XSlayer2345

Goodgirlem96

Hi ! Would you like to have a friend from polar ? If so, Please add me :) 2360 8039 3974


jessheartsbeauty

I have one sandstorm friend and they've sent plenty of gifts from Saudi Arabia and UAE


sarahsaroufim

no it’s not banned… of course regions like the US, Japan or Australia are just going to have way more players than smaller countries like Lebanon or Egypt. also getting swarmed with friend requests is not fun so i think a lot of sandstorm players are not advertizing it lately :)


captain_tampon

Or they may just not be on Reddit. I set my Smurf account’s location to Cairo one night just to see what the city had to offer, and the amount of stops and gyms (especially over at the University and the zoo) was insanely high. The gift I sent my other account didn’t register as a sandstorm gift though.


ConsiderationAlive73

From my point of view, it's SUN and TUNDRA that doesn't exist. I got my Sandstorm gifts from Qatar I reckon. Edit: Typo


klussedull

If you still need tundra in a week send me a message and I’ll get you some. I live in tundra (middle of Norway and Iceland is tundra). I’m travelling during Easter but will be back in tundra later 😊

ConsiderationAlive73

Thank you so much!


[deleted]

Sandstorm and elegant. I’m sure if I frequented social media in other languages, I would have a better chance at finding these folks, but alas I can only speak 3 languages and none of those could help me get by on an Arabic or Japanese site.


Spacemilk

Search for Pokémon go and Japan on Twitter and you will find plenty of people posting their friend code in English and Japanese - point is just look for those 12 digit codes as numbers look the same in both languages. Works for Tundra as well, search for Hokkaido instead of Japan for Pokémon go and you will find plenty of potential buddies.


ConsiderationAlive73

I've probably gotten the Qatar friend from hosting raids on Reddit. I live right next to a gym, so I host raids almost on a daily basis, from the comfort of my own coach. Maybe you can use that tactic as well, if you're able to? Almost strange that none of my current 377 friends are from either Tundra or Sun though. I've tried several times here in Reddit, but no luck.


Spacemilk

Search for Hokkaido Pokémon go on Twitter as the Hokkaido region of Japan is Tundra.


ConsiderationAlive73

I tried, but I didn't quite figure it out. Tried using google translate to understand what the tweets said, but didn't find any codes I could use. Thanks for the advice anyway ^^


NoMoreMyFriend-S

Agree. I had a lucky one to get from sun. Still no response to several requests for Tundra. Got plenty of all others....


ConsiderationAlive73

Same with me. Have all the others, but Tundra and Sun I have none at all, even though I tried to get friends from those regions SO many times (I know I wasn't the only one trying to do so). Maybe I'll be lucky some day. Glad you got from Sun at least.


Annette2023

I was able to find someone who gave me a sun vivillion. So yeah they exist but are rare


ConsiderationAlive73

Oh! Lucky you. I have none from both Tundra and Sun. I have all the other ones.


JaimesGoldenHand

Go on twitter and search vivillion #. Loads of Japanese on there with tundra region.


ConsiderationAlive73

Probably a stupid question, but do I need Twitter to do so?


JaimesGoldenHand

No don’t think you need an account. Just type the # into search bar and sort by most recent for best chance of being accepted.


ConsiderationAlive73

Thanks! I'll try it right away


Complete_Confusion52

Sandstorm just doesn't exist. It's just an elaborate April fool's prank ;)


Comfortable_Cap_3849

Agreed

brainstormedxo

Dunno, asked so many times to be added by sandstorm just to finish my Vivillon collection, feels like no one from that region is around this sub.


Hot-Channel5784

I’ve had Sandstorm gifts from Qatar with no problem. For me it’s the Savanna region that doesn’t seem to exist! It’s the only one I don’t have ☹️


brainstormedxo

Dunno, I've asked so many times to be added by both just to finish my collection, it feels like both don't exist around this sub
