Shiny chain breaking/counting hatches later
Forum Index > Core > Bugs >
Hi! I'm sorry if the title doesn't make much sense, I don't know how to succinctly summarize what happened.
Yesterday I was hatching numels for the ground v-wave and switched to houndour today for the v-wave and to also get a chain going for TR. I believe it was between midnight and 1am server time (I'm behind so it was between 5 and 6pm for me, after work specifically) when I went to hatch my new houndour eggs and noticed I didn't recieve a break chain notice for my numels the day before. It wasn't a big deal as I wasn't going to save it and I chalked it up to maybe grabbing a random ground type in the lab and forgetting? I wasn't paying much attention honestly as my priority was now houndour.
I hatched a few more houndour eggs and then went to bed. Around 16:30 server time I logged in to hatch my eggs to find a warning I'd be breaking my chain. This was confusing and I had been hatching exclusively houndours and that was what I was trying to hatch now. I went to check what it was saying my chain was to see the game had thought I had hatched 5 numel!! I had somehow lost my houndour chain and somehow started a numel chain overnight.
I don't know if there's any way to prove I didn't hatch the random 5 numels, and my houndour chain was probably not more than 40 so I'm not devestated by this, but I really don't want this to happen to anyone else.
Bug Effect: (I am 7 hours behind server so the screenshot is 7:29am for me)
What you were doing when the bug occurred: I was asleep honestly. It was something I noticed when I woke up to hatch my current hunt.
Where the bug occurred: party? Clicks/hatching system? I'm unsure, sorry.
Browser: I use Chrome on my mobile device. If it matters, it does it through an "app" like system where I have an icon for pokefarm that it exclusively does everything in that browser instance so it doesn't take any tabs on chrome (I have android). I play almost exclusively on mobile, and was only on my mobile device yesterday.
I am about to head into work so I hope this is enough information for now and will be available sparingly until reset, but I absolutely don't mind answering followup questions.

Hi! This was posted on Saturday and the chain was definitely started that Saturday server time. Later the day (server time; the next day for me in real life) I had a random numel chain in the middle of my houndour hatching.
I believe last week's tournament is what you ran into. If I remember correctly, Saturdays V~Wave was Dark - meaning that hatching Houndour would not break an existing chain. The tournament ended at 7am server time on Saturday, which seems to line up with your timing.
