Pokémon GO: 10 Reasons To Start Playing Again
6. Streaks & Daily Bonuses
Okay, so in a franchise whose tagline should not so much be ‘Gotta Catch ‘Em All!’ as it should ‘Catch, Sleep, Catch, Repeat’ a fair amount of repetition was to be expected from Pokemon GO.
The lack of reward for adhering to such religious credence was problematic to the game’s longevity. After all, if I lack incentive to play something every day, one day off quickly stretches into weeks and months and then eventually I’ll log back in one day to find Meowth holding the body of a Pidgey in its mouth.
Adding Daily Bonuses was a much needed move, providing players with bonus XP for their first catch of the day, with the latter producing extra items as well. What was the smart move, was adding streaks for doing this.
If you keep it up for seven days straight, you'll net an even larger XP and item reward at the end, which for a time, included a guaranteed evolution item.
Perfect.
