It has happened many times that I’ll be tapping away at the Online clicklist and then, all of a sudden, the green bar disappears and the next Pokémon doesn’t show up, no matter how many times I tap the one currently showing. I’ve often tried rebooting my phone and everything but I always end up having to wait a long time for it to right itself. And now that it’s happened again, and I thought it was working again, I only got to do about a dozen interactions before it happened again.

This has only been happening with the Online clicklist.

When I go to it now, it’s just blank underneath the green “you have started a new clicklist” banner. Nothing I can do with it.

I just turned my phone off for a while and came back to it and it’s still blank when I tap on it, even though it says there are 400 Pokémon there waiting to be clicked.

I think this happens, when you have clicked all available Pokemon in the Online Clicklist. As the programming focusses on speed, it does not always count properly, so it would still show you like a handfull of available Pokemon, but in truth you already interacted with all of them, and you get the screen you described.

400 is a lot more than a handful...

Also, when it does happen like that with just a handful (always less than twenty), it always immediately says that you’re finished with the clicklist and boots you back to the previous page after you click on it. It doesn’t stay frozen on the blank screen.

It’s just happened again, with *602* remaining this time.

Edit: Now it’s frozen with 613 remaining.

Edit 2: Now it says 612, after I did a few clicks in the Unreturned Favors clicklist—apparently one of those was one of the more than six hundred online ones that are hidden from me because of the Online clicklist being frozen.

Had this happen before rarely, but now happening more frequently. Just happened with over 600 left. Doesn't matter how many times I check, just won't work.

It clears up eventually, just as mysteriously as it started.

Edit: Now it's half working, but freezing near 580 left. I wonder if there's a bugged one in the mix it gets caught on or something....

Wanted to pop in and say definitely something else going on here besides the list running out and not counting properly. Mine froze up at over 700 left.

I believe this is the same bug as this confirmed bug. I've had it crop up again too lately.

I just joined yesterday and this has consistently been happening to me on the "unreturned favors" list (which is primarily what I have been using but I assume it would happen on other clicklists too). Sometimes I can only get 20 or so clicks in before clicking just stops having any effect and it will not show me the next Pokemon, but I have also gotten up to 483 clicks before it stopped working. Sometimes, after a few minutes sitting on the page and trying to click on the Pokemon, clicking will miraculously work again and I can continue with the clicklist; sometimes this does not occur and I have to refresh the page and break my click chain to get it to work again. And yes, all times this has occurred I have still had a non-insignificant number of interactions left to return.
It hasn't really bothered me very much since I am not sure if long click chains reap you any kind of benefit (if there is actually a benefit to long click chains then it DOES bother me lol). I figured I would look at the forums and see if this happens to anyone else, and thought I should chime in with my experience.

It just happened again with 687 left after I did only a few interactions there after I hadn’t touched the Online clicklist for quite a while. And it has happened with the Unreturned Favors clicklist as well.

This generally doesn't have an issue for most players. I find this only happens when you have bad internet. I have also heard this happens when you have an external application acting upon the website

I'm not using any sort of extension if that's what the second part means, and literally every other online thing works and.loada fine for me when this happens.

I'm actually kinda chuckling because I clicked on the confirmed bug link and lo and behold it's my old thread. I do also wonder if it's the same issue come back to haunt us.
