PokemonGo #9. A journey to hatch a 10km egg starts with a single step.

[DoctorTwo]

It looked like a new thread was needed, so here it is, all shiny and pristine.

[WhiteHorseWilliam]

Thanks, Doctor.

I hatched a Chansey yesterday, which gave me enough candy for my first Blissey. She has an almost perfect appraisal, so she's probably good, although I expect Blissey will have her CP or something cut back soon, like Lapras did. In think she's as creepy as anything anyway.

Really struggling for stardust, it's so boring catching commons for dust, and so expensive hatching loads of eggs. Very tempted by the go plus, but heard of too many glitches and problems with it, especially with older phones, which mine is.

[Soubriquet]

Got these two new ones. Not brilliant CP but new all the same

[PossumInAPearTree]

Anyone else found that recently there's more revives and potions coming out the pokestops? I was really short but now have hundred plus revives.

[EatingMyWords]

You lucky thing Possum! I've got a million fainted pokemon and no potions and revives! I have had a lot of 10k eggs lately though, so can't grumble too much.

[CheesyChristie]

I want your stardust soubriquet! I never have enough.

[PickAChew]

It took more than a single step to hatch ds1 another blooming gligar, this morning!

[PickAChew]

Good lanturns are proper thuggish in a gym raid!

[BumWad]

Just checking in

[hoopdeloop]

Wooo shiny new thread. Beginning to get slightly bored again with it, seems to be no new shadows. Hope there's a new event soon

[PossumInAPearTree]

I hope they release generation 3 soon.

[WhatToDoAboutThis2017]

PossumInAPearTree They have said they won't be releasing the gen 3 for a while yet, because they want to focus on building on the mechanics of the game.

[AbbeyRoadCrossing]

Thanks for the new thread.

Evolved Dugtrio today and caught a Grimer so only a few candy needed for Muk.
I've got 7 left to complete the UK gen 1 and can walk all of them apart from the elusive Aerodactyl.

[HandbagCrab]

Drowsees are back where we are...

[Soubriquet]

I've been catching everything I can to build it up. Tedious as hell but it works

I also don't do the mass evolve like everyone else does. Means I'm only on level 23 but I get my stardust too

[TrashPanda]

I don't really battle gyms so I don't power up my Pokemon. I think I'm worried about wasting it, so never use it. I've got over 650K. Nothing new or exciting and all eggs have been rubbish, did catch a wild Rhydon this morning though.

[TheweewitchRoz]

I lost you guys again (have name changed!). We've levelled up to level 32 finally but getting quite bored as all the gyms near us as level 10 blue so no chance of getting in.

[Soubriquet]

No I don't do gyms either

[loc]

My local gyms are so stagnant, I have loads of revives, and am chucking out anything less than a max potion (which I have tonnes of). I just don't have the time nor inclination to stand and battle level 10 gyms packed with 2500-3k+ Blisseys. It's boring. I'm in 3 gyms so get my coins, and so just catching vermin till something exciting happens. Which it will. I hope.

[tumpymummy]

I hope they are sorting out the sniping of gym places. I'm put off training high level gyms now in case someone grabs my space. Last week I spent ages training a gym from 42000 to 50000 only for some t**•er to grab my slot. Today I saw a gym that needed 3000 to go up a level but I didn't bother with it as it's in the centre of town with lots of people walking around that area that could nick my spot.

[WhatToDoAboutThis2017]

tumpymummy Unless you're taking too long to put a Pokemon in after levelling up/fighting a gym, that shouldn't happen, because battle winners get priority for at least a minute after the battle.

[ojalele]

That's true when you win a gym from another team, butnot when ypu level a gym up. I took a gyme from 42000 to 49000 only to spot a kid battling it too. So I waited for him to finish and took my spot...

[ojalele]

Argh. Thick fingers!! Sorry about spelling mistakes

[WhatToDoAboutThis2017]

Oh really? I hadn't noticed that. I battle gyms every day and have never had someone snipe me (and I'm always battling in the centre of town).

[AbbeyRoadCrossing]

There are plans to make it so all pokemon in a gym have to be different. Would put a stop to ones stacked with Blissey.
Near me theres one with 8 Dragonites it's almost too boring to take down!

[tumpymummy]

A gym full of dragonites is really weak. I'm surprised no one has taken that down. Last week there was a Facebook call out for my team for everyone to add their shuckles! So we had a shuckle gym. But it only lasted a few hours Yes I was talking about sniping when training up a friendly gym. Not when you defeat an enemy gym. I know you get priority on a grey gym. Wish the same applied after training a friendly gym.
