Well, saw this little one left overnight in a gym. Sad, really... Where are his parents? What were they thinking? Do they work night shifts too?

So many questions...

Evening all. I love these events. It's the only time I feel like I'm not just grinding along purposeless. Finally hatched a pincer, and a ryhorn to evolve, have enough candy for venosaur & charizard so that's 4 in the pokedex. Also managed to hatch an extra 5k and 2k egg from gps drift (5k was psyduck tho). I NEED snorlax and lapras soon or I'll go nuts. The rest im missing are really rare round here so don't mind not having them as much but I get so jealous that I'm almost level 30 and still so far behind. I just want a full dex dammit

What does a Togepi evolve into?

IhatchedaSnorlax · 01/01/2017 23:20

I'm so jealous Bum - where is everyone finding their babies?? Angry

Happy New Year Trainers!

It has been a good day for me. Look at what I hatched Grin

Also have 125 Bulbasaur candies and nearly 100 squirtle candies. Need to keep at it with the Charmanders in the next week or so! I am also in desperate need of eggs. Might go for a long walk tomorrow.

I need to find a dog who will let me tape my phone to its neck. Turns out cats don't like that so much. Just FYI.

I laughed so much. But you need DD1s cat, she's a sweetie.

IhatchedaSnorlax · 01/01/2017 22:57

Whereabouts are you Mackem as there's no sign of any babies around here (Birmingham)?

To those without Dittos, I really wouldn't bother as they're rubbish, other than completing a space on the Pokedex.

TheOtherGalen · 01/01/2017 22:44

Now all I want in life is a ditto. I didn't even know they were a thing. I hope they're not just a UK thing.

My second 10k egg gave me another Magby, which I feel guilty about being disappointed in. All hopes now pinned on 10k egg the third.

DameDeDoubtance · 01/01/2017 22:44

I'm knee deep in Dittos, catch one every other day! So odd how the spawns are spread around.

DameDeDoubtance · 01/01/2017 22:43

Nameless - My avatar is on wifi when she goes for a wonder, oddly seems to happen more since I changed providers but that may just be coincidence.

Caught one Bulbasaur, one. Hatched a Syther in my 10k egg which is a new one for me!

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 01/01/2017 22:27

I managed to bag two charmeleons and a few bulbs today while I was out but still not enough for all three evolutions for both on my dex.

I did get three 10K eggs which was good, but the previous one was my third elekid. It's not that I mind the babies, but I think putting them in 10k eggs is a bit off because it means even less chance of getting a lapras/snorlax/chansey/aerodactyl.

TallulahBetty · 01/01/2017 22:25

I was starting to wonder the same Someday! Luckily for me, they're still about!

SomedayMyPrinceWillCome · 01/01/2017 22:18

I didn't know Dittos were still out there - I'd assumed they were a "special" as I haven't caught one in ages

MuddlingMackem · 01/01/2017 22:15

Hatched a Cleffa today, so that's four of the babies. Also hatched a second Elekid. I managed to catch a Venusaur when were out in the car, it's a whopping 32CP (no, that isn't a typo Grin ) so I'm still saving candy to do a double evolve for a decent one. Thanks to the event, and buddying for ages, I only need two more candies, which I hope I'll get by catching a Bulbasaur tomorrow, so I've now swapped my buddy to Kabuto, as I still need 37 candies for a Kabutops and they're 5km / candy, so it could take a while. Hmm

During my walk today I caught three Magikarp, which means I only need to catch another ten and I'll finally get a Gyarados. :)

If I can get these evolutions I'll only need three more for the Gen 1 Eurodex, which I'll need to hatch or catch, so they could still take a fair while.

TallulahBetty · 01/01/2017 22:03

Finally, FINALLY got this bad boy tonight! Should have known when I took 12 great balls to catch. I nearly gave up! Happy new year 'monners Xmas Smile

My avatar is running riot on the wifi from the sofa. Have bulbasaur, charmander and charmeleon on the radar but none of the feckers are spawning.

IhatchedaSnorlax · 01/01/2017 21:08

Hatched our 10k tonight & got a Lapras - soooo happy as we haven't had one before! No sign of any babies though Angry. Now only 20,000 off level 29, so hopefully get there soon!

TheOtherGalen · 01/01/2017 20:18

Hatched the first of three 10ks and got a stupid Scyther. Blergh! Hoping against hope for a Smoochum from one of the remaining two.

Lots of starters about. Still grinding away with "buddy" Dratini to get enough candies to evolve. Not much of a buddy when it only grudgingly doles out one lousy candy per 5k walked, if you ask me. Then I just need to catch a decent Dratini or Dragonair to evolve.

I need to find a dog who will let me tape my phone to its neck. Turns out cats don't like that so much. Just FYI.

eitak22 · 01/01/2017 19:46

So close to hatching my 10k egg and two 5ks. Hatched a Bulbasaur in a 2k yesterday which helped me evolve my bulbsaurs to an Ivysaur, spotted an Venasaur on the tracker but was opposite way to where i was going and also evolved my Charmanders to a Charmeleon.

No babies yet but hoping a walk tomorrow will get me a few :) Unfortunately home is not as a good as my Inlaws for spawns :(

FrogTime · 01/01/2017 19:13

Glad the starter mon are around a bit longer.
Turned app on when I left work and a wild ivysaur and charmeleon spawned! Charmeleon took most of my balls before disappearing and the ivysaur stayed in its ball but is very poor cp. At least I got a new dex entry and the xp to go with it.

.9km off my first 10km egg, will get that done tomorrow and my 5km gave me a grimer today, needed the candy so happy with that Smile

TheOtherGalen · 01/01/2017 18:51

I was in the middle of a nice lucky egg evolve session and the game stopped me twice to make me prove I'm not a robot! WTF. The time I spent doing that -- so much wasted double XP! I'm cranky, yes I am.

NamelessEnsign · 01/01/2017 18:42

The first part of the event ends on the 3rd, but the startermon should be around until the 8th.

Dame, does your GPS wander on wifi or on 4g/3G? I wouldn't feel guilty at all; the app under records massively!

I bought the 250 coin bundle before they changed and it has been great to run up to 6 incubators, but we haven't put the miles in as my lungs are so bad.

We stayed at a friend's house in Stratford last night - much less rural than us, so I was expecting good things. Not a single Pokemon showed up in the house all yesterday or this morning! I did hatch Smoochun and Pichu though, my first babies.

Hardly any startermon here - a shadow of a Charmeleon in town but couldn't track it down, and I caught Ivysaur. I need over 50 candies to evolve Venosaur and over 100 for Charizard (need a double evolve). And 51 for Blastoise too!

We're visiting family in a small city tomorrow so I am hoping DH will tolerate a bit of diversion if we see some shadows!

My egg is on 9.8 and I haven't been out all day, crazy huh! I would feel guilty but the app has cheated me out of so much walking distance that I think it owes me! Off out now, hopefully come back with some startermon candy.

Starlight2345 · 01/01/2017 16:46

Been out again..In the car to be fair...Caught another Ivasaur and 3 bulbasaurs...Need 20 candy now..
