I now have a hypno army. Drowsee are so common.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 30/09/2016 14:48

dillite I thought of you and put a Clefable and a hypno and a nidoking in today for variety! Caught a wild onyx, lickitung and two dratini so I can evolve dragonair. Unfortunately kabuto ran away. All duplicates but helps with the never ending plug for xp

Hatched an aerodactyl tonight.

TaraCarter · 29/09/2016 23:16

I like to put deliberately different ones in, for that reason Dillite. If I'm absolutely certain it won't last 24 hours, I put in something silly I was going to transfer for candy anyway, and then I transfer it after the knockout. Saves my meagre revive stores.

Dillite2 · 29/09/2016 22:56

Are you getting annoyed with seeing all the same pokemon in gyms? It's always either Goldick, Lapras, Vaporeon, Snorlax or Gyarados. There are others but not as often. My nearest gym has 6 vaporeons in it and 3 gyarados.

lazymongoose · 29/09/2016 22:50

Had a charmander and machop spawn in the house tonight at same time it was great only ever caught one charmander before miles away! I've noticed when the game changed from day to night something really good spawns, had it happen a few times at home

tumpymummy · 29/09/2016 22:47

The other thing I've noticed over the last few days is that I've started catching some Pokemon with a really low CP, often as low as 10. Anyone know if there's a reason for this? Are they about to introduce a reason for having low ones? (I'm on level 22)

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 29/09/2016 22:32

Progress slowing. Now 3/4 of the way through 25. Im at 122 caught, 122 seen. Got these two new ones tonight. Waited ages for victreebell as my weepingbell was weak so I had to do a double evolve. Now at 14 pokedex lines

Cooroo · 29/09/2016 22:25

Thought i was answering a question there but lost it. Sorry for random interjection!

Cooroo · 29/09/2016 22:23

Yup 3k for Bulbasaur candy. That's another 30k for me!

Newdad190 · 29/09/2016 21:56

Oh wow thanks v much

TaraCarter · 29/09/2016 21:48

Devil Oh yes. The game says I walked 7.1km, but I am pretty sure it's more than that. It has been taking forever to update the egg's meter. I'm not even anywhere rural!

FrogTime · 29/09/2016 21:24

Just did an update but can't see any noticeable changes. No magical spawn points in my house

I'm getting impatient with waiting for eggs now I'm back down to 1 incubator. I think they definately give you 2 at level 20 so you're pissed off when they're gone and spend money. hurry up Google and give me more surveys!!!

devilinmyshoes · 29/09/2016 21:22

it's v annoying if you walk miles every day in rural areas with terrible gps failures though

it's a whole different game!

One of the new updates brought in a buddy that you could assign to walk around with you (although not on the actual map). Click on your avarar from the main screen and go into the menu at the bottom right. The middle option is buddy and you can chose one of your pokemon to hang out with.
Some pokemon you get a candy for every 1km you walk, others are 3 or 5km.
Mines magikarp but I think I'll be week g that flappy bastard for a year before I've enough candy for gyarados!

Newdad190 · 29/09/2016 21:15

What is a buddy??

TaraCarter · 29/09/2016 20:04

Yep. Like I said, I don't have to walk far- only 27km altogether, and I'm 6km in already. It's going to be positively instant gratification after my last buddy for which I had to walk 60km.

MagikarpetRide · 29/09/2016 19:53

There are pokemon in my house! Nothing better than pidgey and rattatas (and their evolved ilk) but this is very new for me.

I think I may have a rattata nest down the road. The other morning there was a Raticate surrounded by about 7 rattatas. It looked like a king being worshipped by its minions.

EverySongbirdSays · 29/09/2016 19:50

Don't you have to walk 3km for one Bulbasaur candy though?

TaraCarter · 29/09/2016 19:46

We caught Pikachu today!

My Bulbasaur spawnpoint is gone, and I only needed to catch three more for Venusaur. Mind you, it's my own fault really for evolving a rubbish Bulbasaur to an Ivysaur, before I got the hang of thw IV checker, which wasted candy. Then I had to start again with a decent Bulbasaur. If I hadn't done that, I'd have had my Venusaur ages ago!

Ah well, it's just a matter of having one as a buddy and walking a bit, and meanwhile my spawnpoint has turned into a Squirtle spot. Definite plus there.

Lilaclily · 29/09/2016 19:25

I had a good day today
Caught enough charm anders to evolve a charmeleon
And Machop was my buddy and got enough candy to evolve a machoke

My bulbasaur nest at work has changed to a charmander nest !

CarcerDun · 29/09/2016 18:35

I'm a lurker here, but just had to share this beauty hanging around in the work loos!

EverySongbirdSays · 29/09/2016 18:30

Great day today went out to try and get the 3 candy I needed for Raichu. Got first Kabuto, first Weezing, and first Sandslash too
