God that is a crap Electabuzz LongtimeLurker.

I'd just evolve the magikarp and power up once evolved.

I got a shit dragonair at 72cp or something. Cant do anything with it and must keep catching Dratinis.

Dillite2 · 22/09/2016 12:08

Just caught a 1120cp Seaking outside Morrisons with a single red ball. According to the snotty lady, he is colossal.

I raise you this in the crap electrabuzz stakes queenliz I'm stuck on 118, I want some new ones!
Have 396 Magikarp candy now. Should I wait and power the little bugger up?

I've found it easier to catch everything since the last update, hardly any run away

SoupDragon · 22/09/2016 07:56

I find myself muttering that the Pidgey or Weedle should be bloody grateful that I am paying it attention :o

nuttelladreams · 22/09/2016 07:55

I get well angry when pidgeys and wheedles run away. And that seems to happen quite often these days.

I caught loads of onix when I was in Spain but have never seen any here. I hatched a snorlax on my only ever good egg. Now I only hatch rubbish. And still no 10k.

I am definitely less enthusiastic this week. Done 20k in 3 days and need another 180 to complete this level. No exciting catches either.

SoupDragon · 22/09/2016 07:06

I don't know if size matters - I've assumed not though. I appraise my Pokemon and put an asterisk by the breathtaking ones. I then run these through one of the online calculators and add their max percentage.

SoupDragon · 22/09/2016 07:05

How do you use the fastpokemap? Is it just a question of opening and seeing what's around you?

Yes. When you first open it you need to pass the big round scan button though.

I did download one with a very similar name which didn't seem to work though.

Cooroo · 22/09/2016 06:20

Does size matter?? I've been adding numbers to Pokemon names based on appraisals but not sure how important that last rating is. If it's brilliant in every way but tiny, do I keep it over one that's less good but colossal?

QueenLizIII · 22/09/2016 02:32

Maybe there is hope yet for more Pikachu. Grin

EverySongbirdSays · 22/09/2016 02:29

I had despaired of Pikachu but got three close together - didn't get the third

QueenLizIII · 22/09/2016 02:15

I dont have an Onix. I have 2 Bulbasaurs never seen a Pikachu, just hatched one once.

I've never even seen a shadow of Snorlax. Getting a bit bored now.

EverySongbirdSays · 22/09/2016 02:00

I've got Onix, Lapras, Gyrados, Jynx for me it's some of the basic fuckers that everyone else seems to have - like a fucking Bulbasaur, seen not a one - got a sniff of a Snorlax once but otherwise no

QueenLizIII · 22/09/2016 00:24

Change its name to cock.....

Dillite2 · 22/09/2016 00:21

This really made me laugh

Ive had an Electabuzz for ages. It just randomly showed up one evening. It is crap though, only a 240 CP so I cant battle it or doing anything with it.

I dont do it with ordinary pidgeons but when I see a Pidgey in the game and decide to catch it for XP, stardust and for the next big evolve session, if that pidgey breaks free of the ball a couple of times I think oh fuck off you little shit and dont bother trying to catch it! There are hundreds more where that came from.

Cooroo · 21/09/2016 22:52

Anyone else caught themselves muttering 'Fucking Pidgeys' at innocent pigeons wandering about?

LBOCS2 · 21/09/2016 22:48

Hmmm. According to googlemaps, it's a 5 hour drive away. Bit far, even for all the Pikachus in the world...

nuttelladreams · 21/09/2016 22:31

How do you use the fastpokemap? Is it just a question of opening and seeing what's around you?

I tried it when I saw the shadow of the electabuzz but still couldn't find it.

GreenShadow · 21/09/2016 22:28

FastPokeMap is brilliant.
I've caught several new Pokemon that I wouldn't have been aware were nearby otherwise.

Can also be a bit frustrating - I managed to spot my first pikachu but it was inaccessible as it was about 11pm and across a dark field - the only time I'e ever been aware of one nearby.

PickAChew · 21/09/2016 22:25

He's found a Kabuto nest at Ropner park in Stockton, too.

PickAChew · 21/09/2016 22:10

It's just fastpokemap

Lumley Castle!

QueenLizIII · 21/09/2016 21:46
