I have a really big problem with the prize machine as a f2p player. The problem: It is impossible to get ANY holowear. Since I at max get 12 hits which isn’t even enough for Zoroark Holowear not talking about Absol. Please do something about this like in anniversary event where you got 10 free throws everyday. Please make it so I as f2p player can get The good holowear/40 hit holowear.

    Sorry for bumping late, but this current Prize Machine with the Venusaur Holowear is the first one I've seen, and WOW it sucks. I don't understand why the progress for each prize has to reset all the time. Like if you've made 12 throws on the Holowear prize on your first day, the 12 should carry over on the second day., and every other day after that until the event ends Getting 10 free throws everyday is also a plus, because let's face it, this is first and foremost NOT a gacha game. If you're going to give players the opportunity to get free cosmetics, don't make it impossible to obtain??

    Stuff like this really cheapens my experience of the game imho.

    It is a scam. Hear me out. This is clearly an attempt to squeeze money out of their costumers. Typical low end prize is 6 points. It is about five throws on average, but with a 12 hour reset on two attempts, you can’t do it for free. Every once in a great while, if you time it right and rng is in your favor, it will be 4. About once a year, you can get 10 points on a throw. With that said, all the good stuff is set at 40 attempts. In case you are wondering, that is about 30 throws on adversary. You can get 4 for free per day. Watch additional throw costs 140 purple gems. That’s just over 1 dollar usd per additional throw with the purchase bonus. So we are looking at a prize grab that costs about 28 usd.

    Now, you could pay 28usd to throw for that fancy Pokemon outfit, or you can look in the shop, wait for it to go on sale for just 480 purple gems, and get it for a couple of bucks.

    It has gotten to the point to where I personally only throw balls to get rid of the red dot 🔴 letting me know I have balls to throw. If they took this feature out of the came completely, it would change nothing.
