Pokemon Go #6: Where pokemon babies are abandoned in gyms at freezing temperatures

Went out for a run this evening... started off on level 26 and came home on level 27

Caught my first wild Snorlax. I've got two from eggs that are strong, and a little extra candy is welcome. I saw it on the tracker just inside the woods. I had a torch on me and could see a Snorlax hunting party going on by torchlight!

PickAChew, we went to South Shields today, to see the Ridley Scott exhibition at The Word, so I talked DH into going there via the coastal route. As we were driving past Bents Park a solitary Kabuto appeared, which I was able to catch. DH drove round the back of the field to park up so we trudged across it and managed to get it for DH and DS, but DD's poofed. We drove back that way too but no luck then.

We also diverted home via Latimers and were able to get a first Snorlax each, pure good luck, and I also managed to get into three gyms for coins. Good Pokemon day.

Why is it that when I knowingly throw a curveball it isn't credited as a curveball? It's really annoying, especially as it took me ages to learn how to throw a curveball.

I thought the same. Once I started walking my buddy as I was finishing they would pop up everywhere! Oh I get max revives quite often from poke stops.

I hatched four eggs today, were any of them Grimers? No, they were not. Last week I finally finished walking my Kabuto, this week they are hanging around at the closest Pokestop. Last week I had a trip out to catch Omanytes (previously at seen three, caught two) and this week they are at the second closest Pokestop. I just have this feeling that once I actually get a Grimer they will start popping up (yes, right, in my dreams)

I hit L30 as of yesterday. I am liking the max revives, they revive and heal at the same time. I haven't dropped one from a Pokestop yet so I don't know if they are as rare as hen's teeth (or Grimers)

Did an evolve yesterday Evolved a venosaur and a sands grew , caught a rare grimer yesterday which is my current buddy.. level 28 today ..

Held four gyms non locally for 10 days now. That includes the local one thays been glitched since around September
One hatch yesterday. Nidoran. Argh.

Oh no, PickAChew, and to think of all the ones that were around during the event.

I'm not familar with the parks, only been to the exhibition one when there's been an event on so not sure where anything would spawn. And if it's the southern one I don't think I've been in there at all, although I may go to investigate if I get the chance.

I'm sure your parents would love to see you again so soon, wouldn't they?

And typically, East park in Hull was Kabuto before Christmas. While we were visiting my parents nearby, it had become sodding Krappie. It's only bloody Kabuto, again!

I could do with some more Bulbasaurs. I miscounted and used up candy to power my best bulb up, so I'm 25 short of a venusaur!

I have one awesome Ivysaur, mind!

I'm now wondering if the network of footpaths between the park and the rec wasn't the nest, though there were no stops there, either and it was too slick for me to investigate - my back's been making my eyes water all week, as it is, without the prospect of exacerbating it by skidding on ice.

My only hatch today was a second Togepi, so I think when I finally get my Kabutops I may buddy one of those to evolve.

53rd, I wish I could find a local gym of high enough level to do that, I usually have to keep reclaiming my local gyms each day to get coins, although I did manage to get in one on Monday and stay there until the end of Thursday, so that was nice. :)

Thanks to FeralBeryl's gym advice, I've finally kept a Pokémon in a gym for longer than a day! Got a local Level 8 gym up to Level 9 and stuck my Dragonite in there. It's now been 48 hours and the gym's since gone up to Level 10, woo!

I had a not bad day catch wise. 2 Omanyte, 3 Scyther, 3 Squirtle, 2 Bulbasaur, 2 Magikarp (now at 254 candy) and a Porygon.

Hatches were not so good. A Bellsprout, a Staryu and a Zubat.

I'm still walking Geodude and currently have 68 candies and have walked him 63.8km. I have a half decent Graveler, so I'm going to buddy him for another 40.2km so I can do a power up before evolving Golem. So that's another week or so. Then I'll switch to either Charmander or Bulbasaur, probably the former, as I only need 36 candies for Charizard.

I caught a wild Porygon when getting out of a taxi, driver had to wait until I caught it before he could be paid!

Ah, man, PickAChew, really? I was really hoping that was going to get me my Kabutops soon. If I do get down there though I'll be sure to wear shoes with good grips.

And I mean nothing. I get more spawns through the village on a school run!

Mackem, we found nothing whatsoever at either! Not even any pokestops.

Had a good not so brisk walk, though. Those cutesy seasidey painted pavements are lethal with frost on!

Evolved a Golem! Now walking Charmander for the last few candies for a Charizard. Bit pissed off as the 10k egg I've been hatching was a Kabuto. I do need Kabutops I suppose, but was hoping for a Chansey or Lapras

I got a smoochum from a 10k... so disappointed. I wanted an awesome snorlax

PickAChew, according to the map there is a Bents Park and a Bents Exhibition Park, so please let me know which one it was. I haven't managed to get there yet, maybe tomorrow or Tuesday. :)

I think I know which park you mean, Mackem. DS1 and I will be catching the E1, in the morning, weather permitting!

The only baby I have is still a Magby. DS1's had a lot more luck with them than me.

Other than those, still need Kabutops, Omastar, Snorlax, Dragonite, Chansey and Porygon. And I'm only 200KXP off level 31

Oddly enough I caught a Porygon on the bus too (I had my DS's phone so he was OK!). I hatched the other.

Tangela and Aerodactyl are my bugbears. I've never seen a shadow of Tangela and only twice got a glimpse of Aerodactyl shadows.

53rd I've got four Porygons, all of which I caught on buses so the kids were a bit miffed I couldn't get one for them.

Good day today. Hatched a Tokepi so now only missing Magby of the new babies, and caught two Magmars. Turns out that one of the parks just out of town is a nest in the change. :) I now also have almost 34 Kabuto candies, so only need to catch four on a nest visit to get my Kabutotops.

Abra hatched last night. Nidoran today. Fed up

Oh good, glad it's not just me! I think it's a bit of gen1 fatigue. Having the events gave me something extra to do but now I'm back to catching krabbys it's all gone a bit stale. There never seem to be any decent nests near me either (east London).

53 I have three porygons which have just popped up near my work over the last few months. They don't seem to appear too often.
