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...

Name - I am so angry about the subtle conditioning our kids have to put up with. I resisted every step of the way but you can't change society overnight, not when it doesn't want to be changed!

Does anything stay in a ball first time now, even Weedles bounce out of great balls now, I could weep.

My amazing avatar is walking up and down the road getting candies and hatching eggs all by herself, clever, clever girl.

Oh and, everyone else taking ages to load up this evening? Bloody NYE messing with hunting, what if I finally find my snorlax but can't catch it 'cos some twit needs to twat all their mates sat next to them. Hmm
On the plus side, that L7 gym next door will be going just after midnight. Grin auld Lang sign all you like.

Happy new year and fruitful hunting all.

Hatched this today from a 5k.
Not sure what it's for but says it can't be copied so might be useful against a ditto.

Dame I haven't seen it myself but I've seen other pics on the silph road subeditor.

We were in a educational toy shop today. Really fun puzzles and games in the blue section then lots of starter cleaning and cooking sets in the pink section. I had a really loud rant in front of the owner then we flounced out for aforementioned coffee. Glad your DD is already ignoring the subtle signs.

I lost my balls and need more again. One bloody bulbasaur and one stinking 10 cp charmander caught cos the rain kept landing on the screen and making me miss. Going to bed early so I can camp on the pokestop two doors down.

PossumInAPearTree · 31/12/2016 20:32

I didn't know about the lumos, nox phone thing. Dd is mega impressed.

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 19:45

there's!!!! Doh!!!

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 19:44

Managed to evolve Victreebel which was cool, so satisfying to fill in a blank space in the 'dex. Walking my Graveler now, luckily only 1k per candy!

I also have a ten k egg, 7th so far just hope theirs a Snorlax snuggled inside.

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 19:36

Has anyone else had this happen, where the pokemon gets really weenie and you can't click on him? He's super cute though, just teeny tiny.

V. glad you got your balls Name Grin

We have a techy shop near us which is called mensomthing or other, dd loves it even with the limitations of having a girly brain. I always imagine going in an finding all the men operating the special men toys with their penises.

Oh and try just outside the town centre. There's almost nothing in my usual spots the the pokestops just beyond my usual perimeter have a fair few. Also quite a few near the Starbucks, I'm wondering if it has something to do with their partnership in US

NameSux · 31/12/2016 18:54

I know Dame. I was half involved in a feminist discussion about gendered xmas gifts/jan sales (all the tech prezzies were in the men's section) and looking at a venosaur in my nearby. I forgot the conservation and announced I needed balls. Downed my coffee, left my coat with the others and went looking for my own damn balls.

found blue balls and giggled manically to self

FrogTime · 31/12/2016 18:18

*fingers crossed that should say!

FrogTime · 31/12/2016 18:17

Evening all!

3 charmanders, 2 bulbasaurs, 3 machops and a wild machoke today! Not bad for just the to and from bus stops!

Egg hatches were sandshrew and spearow Sad

Go gets crossed for more starters tomo, want to get these two evolutions done!

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 18:11

I took over a gym and was asked for my number by a fellow pokehunter, I think he was impressed by my Gyrados! Grin

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 18:09

1 Squirtle and 1 Charmander Sad

I am so sad, I thought I would be wading through Bulbasaurs but my town is still stuffed to the brim with Pedgeys and Weedles.

Name - part of being a feminist is being able to talk about stuff like that, you want balls then go get 'em!

DoctorTwo · 31/12/2016 17:34

NameSux, that is the hardest I've laughed all day!:o

NameSux · 31/12/2016 17:24

I NEED BALLS
says the feminist

QueenLizIII · 31/12/2016 17:08

I had 30 odd bulbasaur candy yesterday and now have over 90

caught a load of Charmander and Squirtle too.

spiderlight · 31/12/2016 17:07

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! We had an absolute beast of a wild Blastoise spawn in our house just now, 9-year-old DS caught it and mine fled. Harrumph.

Still, while we've been away I've finally got my Snorlax (I lurve him), and I've hatched a cute little Cleffa today and caught five Electabuzz, umpteen Charmanders and enough Bulbasaurs to evolve an Ivysaur.

TheOtherGalen · 31/12/2016 15:53

I wonder if I try that Lumos/Nox thing on my iPhone if Siri will get all huffy like she does when I tell her to "Open the pod bay doors, HAL."

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 15:49

Right, need to prise myself off the sofa and go for a poke walk.

IhatchedaSnorlax · 31/12/2016 15:17

I didn't know that Dame, so have just tried it Grin

Starlight2345 · 31/12/2016 14:51

I have caught about 6 bulbasur this morning .. I only had about 6 bulbasaur candy , so need a lot more to evolve up ..

Evolved Kabuto yesterday so now Sandshrew is my buddy.

DameDeDoubtance · 31/12/2016 14:48

Astonished that it works!!!! What sorcery is this!!!!!! I only found out what happens when you google Do a Barrel Roll the other day, who knew how wonderful the world is eh! Grin

Natsku · 31/12/2016 14:22

I have 9 incubators but not a single bloody egg, and have only seen charmander nearby but not in range. Rubbish.
