Today I hatched another Magby from a 5km egg and a fucking Skarmory from a 10km egg. I walked 10 km for that?!? FFS.

Now up to 92 Totodile candy and 85 Chikorita candy.

Wartortle your rare spawn of the day now needs to be a daily feature on this thread Grin

wartortle · 19/09/2017 15:16

Had another fairly rare spawn today, though not as good as the others. My city isn't normally that good for pokemon so this is a nice novelty!

It seems like the pika hat problem is resolved in this update

Yay! Won't bring back my poor Ash hat (which I keep accidentally typing as ass hat Blush) Pikachu but I can deal with having a Raichu and Pichu with it at least.

I'm team Mystic and my DD is Valor, it's actually pretty handy if I can't get into a gym, just have her knock one out and then wait until it lets me put mine in. I've done the same for her too. Grin

Our group is a mixture of those who wanted the creature and those who want the points. There are people that I don't expect to see again until Entei is replaced but there are still enough people chasing levels to put a raid group together. It would be different if it was something that needed a big group to take down but at least with this one it doesn't need many.

wartortle · 19/09/2017 11:14

I too have a bit of raid fatigue now it's still Entei, and noticing the same pattern within my local group.

KadabrasSpoon · 18/09/2017 23:16

We're on holiday and it's a gym!

Only problem is its full of dying mystic mons and I'm mystic. Some have been there ten days so hoping someone comes along to boot them out.

Oh well at least I can fill up my bag

NikiBabe · 18/09/2017 21:36

I know some in my group have that many too. I just got a bit bored but I should really try for some more. I missed out on Lugia as I wasn't active enough

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 18/09/2017 21:29

NikiBabe I've got three and want a lot more; there's some in our group with 15 or 16!

Plus the more raids we do we have more of a chance to be invited to a Mewtwo raid Smile

NikiBabe · 18/09/2017 20:54

I have an Entei and cant be arsed to.go and try for more.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 18/09/2017 20:46

NikiBabe There's the legendary dogs event; we have the chance to catch Entei until the 30th September.

Then for October we have the chance to catch either Raikou or Suicune, and for November we'll have the chance to catch whichever one wasn't in October Smile

(Catching via raids though, not in the wild!)

cottonwool125 · 18/09/2017 20:14

Nikibabe not at the moment, but hopefully soon Smile

NikiBabe · 18/09/2017 20:07

Is there an event on at the moment

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 18/09/2017 20:06

Mrsmomo Yes, the Pokemon you want to look out for are ones that amaze you first, then strong ones Smile

I'm Team Mystic. I don't think it's a well guarded secret what team anyone is, is it? Grin

wartortle Congrats again! Great spawns.

wartortle · 18/09/2017 19:58

The WiFi pop-up from a nearby shop is actually unintentionally covering a pretty big clue Wink

I was lucky with this, left work late and grumpy and up it popped on my way home! Smile

cottonwool125 · 18/09/2017 19:42

Wartortle you do realise you're now inclined to tell us all where you live?! Wink

Congrats on the Typhlosion Grin

wartortle · 18/09/2017 19:38

I'm mystic :)

Today's rare spawn was almost as good as Ampharos yesterday

Mrsmomo · 18/09/2017 19:35

Team valor. So I guess my good ones would be amazing??
So we all know each other well enough to be sharing team affiliations? lol I've only known you guys for half a thread;)

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 18/09/2017 17:56

Mrsmomo It's the best possible appraisal out of four that you can have as part of Team Mystic (blue).

The best is Wonder, then Caught Attention, Above Average and Not Likely (to make much headway).

Of course, to be more accurate on just how good the wonder Rhydon is you'd want to use PokeGenie, but it's a good start as to how good a Pokemon is Smile

What team are you?

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 18/09/2017 16:44

Wonder is the best description on the Mystic team in game appraisal, followed by Caught Attention, Above Average then Not Much Headway. I now put the intitals of the description in the name e.g. Rhyhorn W so I know the better pokemon to evolve or power up.

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 18/09/2017 16:42

I won't be due to get an amphorous until I've slogged my flaffy out to 95 candies... currently on 63... 164k walked so far... this may be contributing to my rut feeling. I want to do another 10 mile run this week ready for next month's half marathon. It is helping with the milage...

20% of the way through L33 so that's not terribly inspiring either!

I'm assuming Halloween will be the next event too. It was the first of the events last year.

Mrsmomo · 18/09/2017 16:40

Doctor two, what's a wonder rhydon?

Icouldbeknitting · 18/09/2017 16:01

I'm guessing that the next event will be Halloween, although who knows whether there will be double xp. I shovelled out my pidgeys last week as I had 1500 candy and no spare Pokemon storage. They are building up again already.

I caught a wild Flaafy and I was well pleased with that, a wild Ampharos is amazing.

NikiBabe · 18/09/2017 15:20

Is there a double xp event any time soon? I am hoarding pidgeys.
