Just caught an 1800cp Lapras. Also hatched a chansey out a 10k egg today.

Missed a Dragonite last night which would have completed Gen1, will keep walking Dratini. Found a Houndour nest today and caught enough to evolve Houndoom. All recent hatches have been rubbish. Got a 10k egg at the moment, hoping for Dratini, Larvitar or Mareep, but the last one was Mantine so not holding my breath.

possum I went to playa de las Ameica last year..I moslty caught Voltorbs but good luck.

LBOCS2 · 10/05/2017 18:46

Still walking my Machop. I got up to 100 candies but I had preemptively evolved a machoke ages ago and now had Machops with a higher CP than the machoke. So I'll walk it a little longer and wait for my machamp.

I also had two cyndaquils run away from me earlier Angry

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 10/05/2017 18:18

Had walked up to 48 candies on my Voltorb for evolution... guess what hatched out of a 5k egg near the end of my 12k run... Oh well, that's 10 spare candies now! That happened with my Charmander candy too.

Now on Snubull as I'm on 49, so 3k for 1 is fine. Next is Kabuto which i think will complete my gen 1s other than regional.

Definitely over - had a murkrow spawn next door at 8:59 and just done my on the hour check and there was a pidgey in the back garden and a bloody pigeot next door.

Apparently it was extended because they messed up the lures, so people who put a 6 hour lure on were automatically getting soft banned!

Ds caught me a totodile today and I got a better abra. Halfway to meganium and nearly got venusaur, might swap dratini and walk bulbasaur for a bit. Still 330km for dratini to become dragonite so a change might be good!

PossumInAPearTree · 09/05/2017 21:08

Florida have heracross which are great Blissey battlers.

PossumInAPearTree · 09/05/2017 21:07

I'm going to Tenerife next month which has corsolas

PossumInAPearTree · 09/05/2017 21:05

I think it may have finished, nothing but pidgeys and rats now.

Got enough egg things to do two execugotrs and have got enough candy to do a couple more.

Was tripping over sunkerns all week. Not many chikoritas though.

RudeDog · 09/05/2017 20:46

Orlando- I do hope I get something good!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/05/2017 20:21

Tauros is the North American regional. Whereabouts are you going? I believe in some parts of south Florida you might find a Corsola.

RudeDog · 09/05/2017 20:17

Got a few bulbasaurs - desperate for a sunkern

Does anyone know if you get different ones abroad? Off to America soon - will I need to look for something special?

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 09/05/2017 20:04

I'm glad the event got extended as I was working in London today so managed to bag a few grass types on my way back.

Also had a few decent egg hatches for once - Lavitar which is new for me. And Diglet which I need candy to evolve.
I'd had a long run of hatching Mantine which as far as I can tell are useless.

Starlight2345 · 09/05/2017 20:04

got enough to evolve another oddish, bulbasuar, and my first sunkern

Need 9 for my chickorita,

need less than 3 k to evolve cynoquil.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/05/2017 19:53

My jogger badge says we've walked 650kms, which isn't much, although we barely played at all between October and February.

CheesyChristie · 09/05/2017 19:47

How far have you walked with it so far psam?

CheesyChristie · 09/05/2017 19:46

Wow, best get your boots on psam! I have to say I'm losing interest a bit now. I've got all Gen1 apart from the bastard Chansey and can get the rest of available Gen2 (apart from Blissey) if I walk round the world. There's so many bloody spoofers round here gyms are just pointless.

Need another nice event I think.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/05/2017 19:46

Somewhere, even.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/05/2017 19:45

3,500 kms being, incidentally, about as much as I'd need to walk from my house to someone in between Aleppo and Beirut. Which doesn't make it sound any more appealing in all honesty.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 09/05/2017 19:39

My spreadsheet tells me that in order to obtain all of the candy needed for all the evolutions I have left, I would need to walk....

3,500 kilometers!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 09/05/2017 12:30

onemouseplace It's part of the grass event; lures are lasting 6 hours.

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 09/05/2017 12:30

I've noticed the Lures lasting a long time. There was a cluster still going in the woods after midnight at the weekend. I doubt anyone was charging around there in the dark!

onemouseplace · 09/05/2017 12:12

I had an odd thing with a Lure this morning as well - I put one on at the pokestop at playgroup - and it was still going strong when I left 1:30 hours later! So much so that I had to stop catching 'mon as I ran out of balls even though I was collecting every 5 mins!

CheesyChristie · 09/05/2017 10:56

Still seems to be going on!
