Word of Warning about auto-Transfer with 1.0.163

[TheSpruceMoose]

Recently just upgraded to the new Poke-farmer. I had the rule of keeping 4 of each Pokemon, 2 with the highest CP and 2 with the highest IV. (Former rule said "Keep 2 of both highest CP and IV") After upgraded I checked the rules section and I noticed all my Pokemon were auto-populated with a rule called "Keep 2 of the highest CP and IV" so I assumed this was brought over from my previous rules since I did not set it.

After starting the app it began to auto transfer some of my better Pokemon. I didn't notice there was a mistake until it started transferring my Rhydon because the other Pokemon were generally Pokemon I evolve to and thought maybe I had too many. The new rule was actually only to keep 2 Pokemon, 1 of each.

Worse things have happened since I was complaining a bit that I had too many Rhydons in my top 10 Pokemon, but I thought I'd give a word of warning to others who might not think the same. Plus there are a billion Rhyhorns where I live so getting them back won't be a problem. Otherwise great update, love the ability to use incubators in game because I always hated how it would use my Limited-use Incubators on 2km eggs. Now I can fix that!

However the idea is very nice, I agree it still needs some work. For example somewhere a guide with an exact explanation of each rule.

Besides that, it isn't currently possible to add certain rules yourself. For example by default it took all my rules and set for most pokemon 'Transfer all, but keep 2 with the highest IV', I can't seem to find this exact option while configuring rules. I could always edit the json ofcourse...

click little dropdown arrow next to pokepics then click the rule to edit numbers


anyone know if the amount for evolution is candy or amount of said pokemon?? if its the latter we could use the former opyion --evolve when x candy or enough candy

My bad, should have used my eyes How about adding another rule then? For example for Charizard I only have a 'catch rule', how to add another one?

But the goal is to not have to do that with each individual pokemon. I just want a general rule where 2 high CP and 2 high IV pokemon are kept for ALL pokemon. Doing that the easy way was eliminated in this new patch. Gotta do them each on their own or edit a json however that works.
