There's no-one quite like Yanma, I'm sure you will agree

My new baby! Did a raid in a park in Vienna, there were about 20 of us

gymhuntr sounds useful - not in range of any gyms in my house so never know when there's a raid on.

Remote berry feeding is working now!

I use gymhuntr to plan walks I always use it on private browser on safari though because I'm scared of getting banned

Guys, you need to check out this site!

Lol, I know I'm being a bit daft but I don't use sites like that as it feels like I'm missing the point of the game. It's the getting out and about and stumbling upon random 'mon and an unexpected empty space in a gym that I enjoy.

I not saying I wouldn't use them if I lived somewhere really rural though. .

Ah that's ok then.

Aww sorry NikiBabe Lugia is staying to the end of the legendaries so you've got time yet

I found a massive group and managed to win a lugia raid but didnt catch the pokemon

Put in your location and it tells you all about the gyms in your area - whether there is a raid going on there (and if there is, what raid including end time and Pokemon Level), how many Pokemon are in so you know if there's an empty slot, who owns the gym and a gym history too so you can see its turnaround.

It's amazing! Definitely worth checking out if you're in a rural area so you don't have to travel if there's nothing out there.

I have two gold gyms, the two I can see from my settee. This is because I've been nipping out to raid there whenever there's something I can take down solo. They are also the two that I walk past at least once a day and they are now dropping a pleasing number of items.

Seeing as I wasn't about and didn't feel like I was playing much the double XP and bonuses still mounted up. I did use a lot of lucky eggs.

I'm now over a third of the way through level 38 and seeing as I dont ever pay for things or use Facebook groups, Discord or scanners etc I think that's high. I got over a million XP over the event. That's a LOT - some people must have got a lot more. My main tactic was pineapp'ing pidgeys low brow . I've also been able to take and retake gyms a lot more since the new gym system. It's so much better. I've THREE gold gyms they on on the other side of the world in very secluded spots e.g. at the end of a trail up the side of a mountain (but with decent 3G👍🏻👍🏻). I got them on my recent business trip. The mon have been in the gyms for 25 days now..... 😎

I've also now gone from having no hope of getting a Blissey to getting a crap Blissey to getting two good and fairly well powered up Blisseys thanks to two lucky eggs. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

No legendaries but I'm cool with that and not bitter at all 😹 🤔

I can't complain too much as I am now half way through 36. 1,000,000 xp over the event is not too bad!

I got one last lucky egg in and now only 60,000xp away from level 36.

I was waiting to do an egg. Arrgh.

Me neither Event must be over.

Not getting double xp or candy

I hatched several 5km eggs today - 2 were Swinubs?!?! Worst ever

No they're not! A swinub egg hatch is perfect because in Gen 4 Piloswine evolves into Mamoswine, and it's amazing! I pinap swinubs simply for the candy so when the time comes I can get several Mamoswines.

You rarely get good swinubs in the wild so to hatch one is great.

Did my evolving - didn't quite make level 30

I've never seen a Girafarig!! Wish my parks would have them

Nests (mostly in parks, but there's mini nests elsewhere - there's matching frequent spawn points at either end of my street) are great when you're building up to an evolution - that's how I got all my starters evolved, plus things like Onix and Slugma, which aren't that common unless there's an event on.

They're not so interesting when you've got everything, though. There were 5 Girafarig at once in the park area in front of Newcastle Civic Centre at lunchtime. Ignoring the fact that they were our local frequent spawn point back when Gen 2 was launched, just how many of the freaky 2 headed buggers do you need?!

I managed to refil my bag, today, anyhow and do lots of sppppinning, catching and evolving, to the tune of about 65kXP. Hatched a larvitar with loads of candy, which is v useful. Also hatched a Krabby and sodding sudowoodo!!!!! They are still in 10K eggs, dammit!

RudeDog well it was meant to be extended for 72 hours after the original end time, which was 1am Tuesday. So I think it should be tomorrow morning. Although don't take my word for that

I'd do all of your evolving/lucky egg sessions tonight just in case or you'll be kicking yourself if you don't and it does end at 1am tomorrow!

Caught loads out this evening, was at a funfair on a green bit, not sure if that counts as a park.

Can someone confirm does it end 1am Friday or Saturday morning?!?

I need to do an evolve session with a lucky egg and don't want to mis time this!'

Rude - I think they have just started notifying us of nest rotations. It has always been regular, but somewhat secretive.
TheSilphRoad always published nest migrations via user confirmation. Now that they have 2 Niantec staff on Reddit, I am seeing more things like this being published.
Reddit have been ripping the APK and spoiling surprises for months now - purely because there were rarely any confirmations from HQ. Pleased to see that the player input is being acknowledged at last.

Just had a Pokémon update message saying there are lots of interesting Pokemon in parks - this is a lie - just came from a park - full of same old crap.
