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

On the gym badges what makes the blue line go up and down I've tried to work it out but can't.

As far as I'm aware, the blue line doesn't go down. It only goes up as you get closer to silver, gold etc. And resets when you move up.

I have been watching and reading with interest, thank you for all the hints and tips! I've done a few raids now and am enjoying them, also finding the new gyms much better as I'm actually getting chance to put my mon in (never did get chance before).

I'm planning to go to the event in Chester with my family so that will be fun!

Ooooooo shiny fish, you lucky duck!

BSJohnson · 14/07/2017 20:54

Awesome on the shiny flappy fish!

I've not been able to log in all evening, which is annoying.

eyebrowsonfleek · 14/07/2017 20:53

Very jealous of the shiny magicarp

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 20:53

Jfw82 oooh nice! Very rare! Be sure to favourite it so you don't ever transfer it by accident Shock

Jfw82 · 14/07/2017 20:46

I got a shiny magikarp!!!!

Makes up for never yet getting a kingsrock ever despite having the candies to evolve both slowpoke and poliwhirl!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 14/07/2017 20:44

Katy - dont give up on 10kms and start doing 5kms - they just removed those very pokemon from the 10km pool and put them in 5kms!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 14/07/2017 20:43

Has anyone got a gold gym badge yet? Considering how fast you fly through plain and bronze, gold seems very tough! I have one about halfway there now, and I think I will only ever get my local 3 up to gold.

KatyBerry · 14/07/2017 18:47

10k eggs can kiss my ass. They've produced nothing but a tedious stream of gilgar and mantines for me for WEEKS. utterly pointless.

Kpo58 · 14/07/2017 18:46

I hatched my first Stantler today. Smile

I also found a weezing around the communal bins. Might be a job for the council...

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 17:10

Yes, they are. I had one run in front of my car many years ago. Thankfully no accident occurred but it was both beautiful and scary at the same time!

Natsku · 14/07/2017 17:07

Saw a baby stantler too, so cute! But my word they are stupid creatures - they just run in front of cars instead of going off the road

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:46

Ha ha no worries Smile

That's an impressive real life Stantler!

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:34

Candies, coins... I blame baby brain! I was calling them points earlier when talking with little cousin.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:22

*Impressive

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:22

Natsku Aww I love Bellossom! But we get so few grass Pokemon round here that I don't have one Sad

Oh you don't get candies for coming out of gyms btw, you get coins Grin Candies would be very impression, though...

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:21

And almost ran into a real life stantler i.e. a reindeer with massive antlers that came out of the trees as I was going past! Snapped a picture of the beast running away from me.

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:18

I put my tiny little bellossom in the gym across the lake but the naughty red person kicked it out after only 15 candies. I put a golduck in the gym at the old village school, there's a good chance it might never come out so was careful to put a 'mon I don't use and can easily replace.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:09

HandbagKrabby Congrats on your Snorlax!

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 14/07/2017 14:54

Hatched a 10k egg... fucking Chinchou. Not even a top quality Chinchou.

Croconaw evaded capture post-raid too. What a waste of some golden razzberies.

I'm not feeling the love today Wink

HandbagKrabby · 14/07/2017 14:04

Got my first snorlax!!!! Only taken a year and a day :) It ran from dh when I was trying to catch it for him and he's not quite over it yet!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 14/07/2017 08:47

Nope, nothing special for my pokebirthday. I'd have been thrilled with a piece of rare candy or something! But nope. Nothing. Unless the eggs
I picked up yesterday are all bursting with Chansey and Snorlax, but I doubt it Grin

Oberhausen, one of the safari zones, is about a 4 hour drive away from me. I So Badly want to go. DH is already pretty sceptical about Pokémon though, plus we'll have only just come back from holiday, plus if I go, dd1 will definitely want to go, and if she goes, dd2 will want to go, and if she goes, dh will have to come because she's 4 and only likes to catch Ponytas so long as she doesn't have to walk for more than 30 seconds. Boohoo.

I'm getting a bit bored of all the normal grinding right now. I know there is a bulbasaur nest about 40 mins drive away, but dh has now got the lurgy that's ruined our last 2 weekends.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 13/07/2017 22:51

PickAChew Yeah, I check all the time. No luck Sad And I'm not even rural!

Thanks though Smile

PickAChew · 13/07/2017 22:50

No special treat, psamm? It's mine in 2 days.
