Off out in a bit to hand in my timesheet, hope I get another Aerodactyl!

Ooh good work on the togetic!

I'm STILL walking that wretched kabuto, but have made it to 42 candies so nearly there.

Is anyone else still bothering to catch gen 1 mon? I've caught masses of swinub and am working up to a lucky egg evolve session.

Only got one special evolve item too, despite hitting 100s of stops.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/03/2017 20:40

Cool! Wow, that's quite a haul. Togetic is especially cool.

You'll never guess what just happened! I glanced at my phone and there's only a Lapras shadow nearby!! Nabbed it. First time I have seen one!! So happy, and dd1 is going to go nuts tomorrow.

Blush You know your family have been playing too much Pokémon Go when your four year old is looking through a zoo picture book, points to an animal and says 'Rhyhorn' and it takes a third party to point out that it's not the correct name.

Go Plus only recognises reds. Means I only use blue/yellow when playing manually because the Go Plus goes through reds so quick!

I am hoping for an update where you have an option to let it use great balls if you run out of red.

jennielou75 · 09/03/2017 17:33

Why is my Pokémon go plus only recognising red poke balls? It is saying no balls but I have 300 blue and yellow ones!

Dillite2 · 09/03/2017 16:37

I would love a dratini. I only have 8 dratini candy.

eurochick · 09/03/2017 15:08

I've only ever had one special item - on my first seven day streak after they started.

Natsku · 09/03/2017 13:04

Still no bloody special items, not even on my seven day streak

TinfoilHattie · 09/03/2017 12:28

I also saw this thing in a gym - how wrong does it look???

My 10k egg hatched ... a dratini. Grrr. I have been grumbling about that a lot. It's the first 10k egg I have had in ages too.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/03/2017 11:51

Jealous of your Totodile!

TinfoilHattie · 09/03/2017 11:47

Nest loacations appear to have changed here today - caught a bucketload of Onix in the park and now have plenty to evolve, just waiting for the special item to drop. Could be a while. Also new today was the Totodile and a very cute Phanpy, my new favourite pokemon.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/03/2017 11:13

I hatched a growlithe from a 5km egg today, which gave us precisely the right amount of candy to evolve an arcanine! I'll let dd1 do it when she gets home.

It was pissing down today. Damn niantic for these 7 day run things. If I die of pneumonia, it's on them.

Dillite2 · 09/03/2017 09:38

Oh, and a chinchou. Remoroid evolves into octillery. How the fuck can a fish turn into an octopus?

Yesterday i caught another new one- it looks like a scary green salmon when they are going through their breeding period.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/03/2017 07:31

Dontstopmovin- not an idiot at all. Stardust is a bit of a crappy feature all round, and it's confusing having it next to the candy. I only knew because I read way too many Pokémon articles online Blush

Igneococcus · 08/03/2017 21:00

I keep losing GPS frequently but only for fairly short time everytime it happens.
I also had a Tododile hanging upside down a few days ago, the CP number and the name were the right way up. I caught it and it escaped and it was the right way round after that, should have taken a picture of it.
Also, got a medal for walking 1000 k, yay.

piknmixer · 08/03/2017 20:49

Is anyone else's app glitching? I keep losing sound and GPS.

Dontstopmovin · 08/03/2017 20:37

Really?! I was convinced I'd had different amounts for different Pokemon!! What an idiot I am!! Blush

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 08/03/2017 19:54

Stardust isn't Pokémon specific, it's the same dust for all Pokémon. So if you have 2000 stardust, that's your total amount. If you use 1000 of it, you have 1000 left, total. It isn't like candy.

Dontstopmovin · 08/03/2017 19:46

Has anyone else's stardust got stuck? I powered up Murkrow which left him with 2003 stardust left, then every Pokémon I clicked on had 2003 stardust! I shut down the app and opened it again a few times but still stuck on 2003. Powered up a very low cp pikachu to see if that unstuck it which took it down to 203 stardust but now all my Pokemon are stuck on 203 stardust!!!Angry

PickAChew · 08/03/2017 19:01

We call our octilleries Donald. They have more than a hint of the trump about them, complete with the requisite wandering hands.

I finally have enough candy for Gyarados! Hallefuckinlujah!

I caught a Shuckle, and hatched a Psyduck (pah) and a Dratini (yay!). Only another 49 candy to go...

I caught an Octillery this morning which was a new one for me. Also hatched a staryu and a psyduck from my 5k eggs. And caught a wild golduck.
