Have you heard people memeing about the Niantic Customer service “r”? Have YOU been joking yourself about the Niantic Customer service “r”? It’s time to meet the meme.
This meme dates back to a post on r/PokemonGO in which user MistaWhiska posted the following email with the title “Niantic responded to my help ticket after 35 days.” The post links to the following screenshot of an email exchange between a busy Niantic customer service rep and the user.
This Niantic customer service miscommunication is the origin of the PokemonGo! meme, “R.”
In the conversation, the user describes losing 1250 Pokecoins due to an unsuccessful in-app purchase. After 30 days, a Niantic rep responds to the ticket. His response? “r”

So that’s it! I wonder which overworked Niantic customer service rep accidently created this new and fun PokemonGo meme. Let’s try not to beat the guy up too much! Oh, and as of this time /u/mistawhiska has not recieved his incense.
