To progress in Pokémon GO, collecting XP and stardust is particularly important. Now a trainer has won an incredible amount of money with just one throw. We at MeinMMO will show you how he did it and how you can do it too.
What content is it about? In addition to the Pokémon, experience points (EP) and stardust are among the most important contents of the game. This allows you to level up and also level up your Pokémon. For this reason, trainers usually try to get a lot of it.
The Reddit user matthewormatt has now shown in his post how much stardust and XP can currently be obtained when catching. We have summarized for you below how much he collected in total and how he was even able to do it.

One roll gives trainers a crazy amount of XP and stardust
How much Stardust & XP did he get? As Reddit user matthewormatt shows in his post, he won a lot on his first throw of the day on May 14, 2024. He was able to secure a total of 27,450 stardust and 44,340 XP with just a single roll.
This is how he earned this amount of XP & Stardust
In order to obtain these amounts of Stardust and XP, various factors played a crucial role that ultimately drove these values up. You will be rewarded with additional XP and stardust for, among other things, fabulous throws, curveballs, hits on the first throw and active, appropriate mega development. Ultimately, the following points were decisive for matthewormatt’s result:
First litter of the day: The litter shown by matthewormatt is the first catch of the day. This will give you 10x XP and 5x stardust during the Catch Miracle event, which runs until May 19, 2024 at 8:00 p.m. In his specific case, he can secure 30,000 XP this way alone.
7-day bonus: In addition, you will be rewarded if you catch a Pokémon for 7 days in a row. That was also the case with matthewormatt. As you can see in his picture, he was able to benefit from a series bonus of 12,000 XP. And there is also a bonus for stardust for a 7-day catch streak. According to information from Niantic, this is currently 3,000 stardust.
Choosing the Pokémon: And choosing the “right” Pokémon can also be crucial for getting a lot of stardust. There are 22 monsters that bring you more and more stardust when you catch them. Since Eardoch is the Pokémon that brings in the most stardust when caught, Matthewormatt says he specifically looked for it to catch it.
This gives you 2,100 stardust without a star piece, weather boost or event bonuses. He then combined the whole thing with a lucky egg and a star piece to get even more XP and stardust.
This is what he writes in the Reddit comments: The Catch Miracle event gives you 10x XP and 5x dust for your first catch of the day. My 7 day streak happened to fall on the first day of the event. With a lucky egg, a star piece and equipped with mega development, we started. I specifically hunted eardock so that it would be the first catch of the day. I just needed that weather boost!
Unfortunately, he didn’t have the weather boost when he caught it, as he explains further in the comments. This would have brought him even more stardust.
Coaches celebrate the catch
In the Reddit community, trainers are excited about this catch with such a high amount of stardust. Some are particularly surprised that matthewormatt actually found a wild eardock to use for his 7-day series and thus benefit from the numerous bonuses.
