Yeah, I know I'm scraping the barrel now... :o But at least you get an earworm.

Still just keeping up the streaks, but yesterday I HATCHED A SNORLAX. That's No2, and I have 40 Snorlax candy.

I get it re grinding up Pikachus, it just feels wrong. I do it though, 'cos I'm heartless. Wink

I stand corrected oddish and WhatToDo :o My previous fastest kickout was just over 3 hours for a Pikachu.

Yes, Moltres is easier to take down but harder to catch.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 03/08/2017 00:47

PikachuHeadgear Ahh, sorry! I misread Smile

PikachuHeadgear · 03/08/2017 00:46

Congratulations Cake! I've seen a lot of comments online about Moltres being hard to catch, so your DP is not alone.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 03/08/2017 00:46

Cakedoesntjudge Congrats on Moltres! Feel sorry for your DP though; hope he gets one Smile Some people will just be unlucky.

I recently hit Level 31 and I think it's going to take ages to get to Level 32.

PikachuHeadgear · 03/08/2017 00:43

I didn't hatch the Girafarigs What, I went for a walk around a large park and they were roaming around there. I went there specifically to get them (heard a rumour they were spawning there)!

Cakedoesntjudge · 03/08/2017 00:43

Finally got my first moltres today on the 5th moltres raid I've tried! Was beginning to get a bit disheartened! DS has caught 3 out of the 5 using standard throws - decided he must just be very lucky. DP hasn't managed to catch moltres or lugia yet and only one articuno despite being a higher level than us and coming to all the same raids. He's also using golden razzberries and curve balls - he just seems to be very unlucky with them. I feel for him as he's most involved with Pokémon and has been excited for the legendary birds since the game got released! Did point out that since he got articuno he still has a chance to get them all though so fingers crossed.

Other than the 2 raids I did after work today didn't get a chance to do any other pokemoning today. I'm halfway through level 30 and getting a bit impatient as I've been on level 30 since just before the end of the double everything event I think. I know it's not been that long and it'll only get worse going through the higher levels but it feels like it's taking forever!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 03/08/2017 00:35

I haven't had a chance to do any Moltres raids yet, but I did get my first (and 2nd, 3rd and 4th) Girafarig today. And I hatched a nice Sudowoodo with double rock, which will be handy when I find a Moltres raid to crash.

Good luck with any Moltres raids! I've never hatched a Girafarig, though seen two in the wild (the second today actually!).

I cant really do those accurately without missing entirely.

Me neither! And I don't want to even chance it on a legendary with a limit on balls. I guess I've just been lucky with all mine.

I met one guy on raid who hasnt caught anything yet.

Yes, we have one guy in our group who has done 25+ raids and not caught a single legendary!

At least you got an Articuno, since they're gone now and I very much doubt will ever come back.

Still got till Monday for Moltres and end of this run of Legendaries for Lugia (as per PokeHistory I explained yesterday) Smile

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 03/08/2017 00:11

Yes golden razzy every time and nice or great throws

What about curve balls? As per the chart I've posted a couple of times on the thread so far, they dramatically increase your catch rate.

NikiBabe · 03/08/2017 00:09

This must be the fastest Gym kick out ever!

Nope! I've watched and waited while people take gyms, as soon as they've fucked off I've taken it from them Grin

Got another Moltres and another Lugia today! So now 3 Lugia, 3 Articunos and 2 Moltres!

Did a second moltres raid and didnt catch it.

Are you golden razzberrying each and every time it jumps out of the ball? And what types of throws are you doing?

Oddish · 02/08/2017 19:44

I can beat that DoctorTwo dropped this in as a passenger through Bham city centre, gym must've been under attack as it was out 5 mins later 😂

This must be the fastest Gym kick out ever! I just had enough time to get lunch then my phone buzzed.

Lunch was a steamed pudding with custard.

My poor Omastar must be devastated, the poor chap. I laughed so much! :o

Just hatched Miltank. After months of egg shite I've been lucky lately. Not many left to catch em all now

Igneococcus · 02/08/2017 11:20

smashie I'm just outside Oban. Even Fort William is almost an hour drive away. Stirling close to 2 hours (depending on the number of tourists/trucks/campervans on the road), Glasgow 2 hours (3 by train). O2 claims that they are bringing 4G to Oban in the next couple of weeks which would change things for me. At the moment I have 4G with O2 where I live and where I work just outside Oban and even on the ferry to Mull recently but not in town. I couldn't find a FB group but I might try set one up once I can access the gyms in Oban where there are more players.

Smashie11 · 02/08/2017 10:46

Igneo how rural in Scotland are you? We usually head to Stirling to play and there is a big group of us on a fb group and we organise raids that way. Have you tried searching fb for your nearest town or set up your own page fb page?

Last night we all turned up for a raid and there was a guy just sitting waiting to see if anyone turned up for it. He didn't know about the fb page, just turned up and hoped others would too. Might be worth a shot for you doing the same.
