Hi, Tetra here! I wanted to start a forum on an odd, i wouldn't say problem but...inconvenience i run into when i am interacting. i typically hold in and click, to interact, since it doesnt require much thought, and i can do it while watching a show or talking to my boyfriend. However, i find that the repeated clicking on my mouse, REALLY hurts my hand. Do any of you have methods of interacting that doesnt hurt? like a certain way of clicking or holding your mouse? Or am i just a baby? Feel free to share your methods, ponder new ones, or even whine with me XD ill share any methods come across as well. Peace!

Do you hold the N key and click? And how many interactions did you make? After a while it will hurt, but that's just part of being human.

Set yourself for the click + N and start watching TV. You get lost into the show/movie and bam you get about 2k interactions made in a fast time xD

I put something heavy on the N button, and start to click with the mouse. It still hurts my hand, but at least I don't have to click on the N anymore

+1 for the heavy object technique, I do that because sometimes I get really immersed into the video I'm watching and end up making my finger numb because I press it so hard. At least with the mouse I'm not holding it down, so it's not as bad.

Bad news, I use iPad... Though I have a laptop, I don't use that frightfully much. And it hurts a lot on iPad.

I found a new technique for iPad! But it is only suitable for berry interaction. I remember the places where the 'next' and 'berry' icons appear, and I make my fingers 'dance' over those two points. It isn't as efficient as a laptop, but it works!

Honestly wish they would just remove the second step so all you had to do was press your mouse key or one button repeatedly. My wrists are already kinda messed up so my hands get cramped and what not really fast. :(

Since I had my first Hack-usation about my clicking (seems 46K a day is hacking to some lol) I'll share how I do it.

I'm on a desktop PC and definitely the key is placing something heavy on the N key for you. I have a pen with a chewed lid that I lock in place between my monitor stand and keyboard so it's pressing the N key in (yes it does fall out every few minutes lol). Then I have the mouse sideways in the middle of the desk and hold it with my right or left hand, I hover over the top and spam from above with my fingers of the opposite hand, I swap fingers and hands over when they begin to hurt.

Another key is to use Chrome or another fast browser - this site does NOT do well in Firefox - in Firefox I was only clicking 15-20K a day because it was so, so slow, it can't handle the reloading of the 20 adopts to click every few seconds (and even on the slot machine it reloads the entire page every spin). Since I've changed to Chrome this feels like a different site, so much faster.

To "zone out" I have 2 browsers open so the PH one only covers 1/3rd of the screen and I can see half of the feed button and watch sci fi series in FF on the other 2/3rds of the screen while I click, but music can also help.

It's still painful if you click too much, but just remember with Shaymin you have until the 4th September so don't go putting yourself in pain.

Much as my hurting hands and fingers would love the second step to be removed it would encourage bot clickers. I have considered binding mouse 1 to another key but from GPX+ where you spam the spacebar or 1/2/3/4/5 keys to feed, it's actually less of a pain to tap the top of the mouse with different fingers so I'll continue doing that.

They already have something in place for anti-bots though. That thing that pops up after so many clicks that makes you choose a specific pokemon from the list. How does the second step really deter botters anyways?

I don't usually interact especially after my computer broke so I'm just stuck on my phone nowadays.

When my computer was working, I interact by pressing the N key and the leftpad 5 button, I made it so that I could click with my keyboard since mouse can ran out of clicks and I'm not that rich to buy a lot of mouse everytime my mouse ran out since I'm a gamer. Clicking with the keyboard is a lot easier and it doesn't hurt my hand as much.

I typically find it better that instead of watching TV that I watch something online and split my screen. That way I don't focus on the task of interacting and focus on whatever I'm watching easier.

I also hold down the N-key with my left index finger or find something heavy like a stack of pennies (or tape the key down) if I don't feel like holding it. But if my fingers start to hurt, which I don't really notice until I hit about 3k, then I switch them. It's a little uncomfortable at first, but you end up getting used to using your middle & ring fingers sometimes too. :b

My laptop also has a touchscreen feature, so I may just tap the screen and hold N if I get too lazy.

I've slowed down on interacting a bit because I don't have as much time or patience and do other things on- and off-site but I can make anywhere from 6 to 12k in a day.

I click on my phone it relieves stress because I can do it real easy while laying down and watching TV as well. However clicks are MUCH slower on the phone as I don't think this was a game meant to be played on a mobile.

Luckily, since I collect crystals and minerals I have a few pieces that are fairly small but still weigh a fair amount. I prop those up on my N key and I just have to click through with one hand. By splitting my screen I just put on a few streams or binge a few seasons of Dexter on netflix and I easily get lost in the show and rack up a fair amount of interactions.
