Pok\u00e9mon Go has become a world-wide phenomenon. According to Expandedramblings.com<\/a>, more than 100 million people worldwide have downloaded the Pok\u00e9mon Go app. It received more first week downloads in the Apple Store than any other app in history. More than 10% of Android devices have Pok\u00e9mon Go installed on them.<\/p>\n So what can playing Pok\u00e9mon Go teach you about how to be a more successful business person? You need to set goals, educate yourself on the market, play the long game and learn how to successfully build teams. Even though Pok\u00e9mon Go may seem like a simple game to play, keen decision-making skills and long-term strategizing go into making a successful player. Below is some advice on how to be the best Pok\u00e9mon Go player, and you’ll find that all of these tips have transferable applications in the business world.<\/p>\n 1). Collect as many Pok\u00e9mon as possible.<\/p>\n 2). Advance to new levels to gain additional advantages.<\/p>\n 3). Use resources wisely.<\/p>\n 4). Enjoy the rewards and entertainment gained from a job well done.<\/p>\n The Internet is full of tips and tricks for making you a better player. One of the most accessible sources is YouTube<\/a> where you can find the latest Pok\u00e9mon news and advice. For example, when you evolve Eevees, you get one of three Pokemon at random: Vaporeon, Jolteon or Flareon. However, if you rename the Eevee before you evolve it, you can actually choose what they will become. If you don\u2019t know this trick, Google it and educate yourself.<\/p>\n It is easy to get caught up in short-term rewards at the cost of losing of long-term gains. Pok\u00e9mon is a progressive game where the rewards handed to you are sometimes greater than the ones you use resources to obtain. For example, in levels 1 through 15, the Pok\u00e9mon found usually have low Combat Power (CP) and there might be a temptation to boost this by using valuable Stardust. Imagine catching a Pok\u00e9mon at level 4, increasing its CP and finding that at level 15, you find the same CP Pok\u00e9mon just for the catching. Here are a couple of tips for being a successful Pok\u00e9mon Go player.<\/p>\n 1). Use Stardust when you possess at least 50K of it have at least reached level 15, some even say level 20.<\/p>\n 2). Some Pok\u00e9mon have two levels of evolution, these include Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Caterpie, Weedle, Pidgey, Nidoran (male\/female), Oddish, Poliwag, Machop, Bellsprout, Geodude, Gastly and Dratini. Wait until you have enough candies to evolve them all the way. The first level usually takes around 25 candies; the second, 100. Your evolved Pok\u00e9mon is based on picking the best option and evolving it up to higher levels. You don\u2019t want to evolve at 25 candies only to find the next one you catch is better than the one you just evolved. A complete evolution table can be found here: Pokemongoevolution.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n 3). Use the evaluation tool to determine the potential of your Pok\u00e9mon. A \u201cperfect\u201d Pok\u00e9mon character will evolve the most and have the highest potential. You will waste weeks of work if you evolve inferior Pok\u00e9mon only to find it can\u2019t successfully battle with them.<\/p>\n The only way to earn Pok\u00e9mon gold, which can be redeemed for upgrades, is to participate in Pok\u00e9mon Gyms. A Gym can have up to ten levels, and the larger the number of Pok\u00e9mon in the Gym, the less likely it is to be taken over by other players. Seek out Gyms with available openings, or train in a Gym to make an opening and then add your Pok\u00e9mon to it. You can earn ten gold pieces a day in a Pok\u00e9mon Gym. If you collect a number of high level Pok\u00e9mon, you can have several Gyms earning you free income every day. If you take over a Gym, take it over with other people so you can fill as many positions as possible. When you take over a Gym alone and have the only Pok\u00e9mon there, you are very likely to lose the Gym.<\/p>\n Oftentimes, the same skills that make you successful in the business world, also translate to other areas of your life. Pok\u00e9mon Go is a prime example of how the same skills that make you a successful businessperson can make you an excellent Pok\u00e9mon Go player. Learn to set measurable objectives, educate yourself on the playing field, think about the long-term potential, manage your resources in the most efficient manner, and develop effective teams to maximize rewards.<\/p>\n If you have other tips or tricks to share about playing Pok\u00e9mon Go, please add them to the comment section below.<\/p>\n RazorEdgeResumes is the executive resume writing division of A Better Resume Service, Inc., with\u00a0more than 25 years of professional resume writing experience.
