PokemonGo #14. Rhydon Time, Rhy-Rhy- Rhydon Time...

Thanks soup they seem to be quite rare here so am still searching. Travelling about a bit so hoping one pops up. DH knows there is a pokemon that only appears here but thinks I'm weird

Congrats whattodo I'm always intrigued what people's last pokemon are. Mine was Primape and Blissey.

I have been very successful recently! Out of my event eggs I finished off with two beldums, a Bagon, a Feebas and a Chimecho (new for me). The beldums have given me enough candies for Metagross however my highest is only 87% and that is nowhere near good enough.

Metagross is one of the best Pokemon we’ve had, the strongest from Gen III with hugely high attack and defense, so 87% is just far, far, far too low for such an amazing Pokemon. So I will hang on

I also hatched another 100% Pokemon, this time a Larvitar, which considering how amazing Tyrannitar is I’m very happy with that

Last but not least, I’ve finished Gen I and Gen II bar Mewtwo and unreleased regionals and Legendaries! I finished walking my Pineco so evolved to Forretress and I walked a very long way to find a Scyther nest to evolve to Scizor.

Kadabra don't worry too much, usually if it's an event they don't swap regionals, they only add them. So even if relicanth came to the UK it would still be in NZ too.

I'm currently in NZ visiting family. In search of a Relicanth. It would be just my pokemon luck if they swapped to the uk!

I've got a shiny Luigia on first catch

DS was at a party yesterday and no parents stayed so I ended up raiding rather than twiddling my thumbs and clockwatching for just over an hour at home. Did 3 Luigia raids in close succession and just the shiny catch.

I'm happy now I've got one on my pokedex. Any more from now is a good bonus. I hadn't found the right whatsapp groups back in the summer. The big one was chaotic in its busyness so I left it. Smaller more focussed groups have been created so it's less digital clutter.

I used up my star dust and a lot of rare candy yesterday powering up some of my legendaries and strong pokemon. I've noticed mine seem underpowered compared to a lot of other players. I've got a few more around the 3000 CP mark now (L35)

yeah obviously Kyogre is water I was talking about un-released.

SoupForBrains wasnt Kyogre a water-type legendary? Obviously he's already been released though so won't pop up for the event

Clampearl has a split evo line and in the games requires special items to evolve into either of it's 2nd forms. so probably there'll be something special about it in PoGo too maybe new special items.

Yeah that's true the regional water mon could perhaps pop up in hitherto unseen places.

There aren't any water legendaries in gen 3. you've got Ice, Steel and Rock in the Regi, the dragon psychic pair of Latias and Latios and the two mythicals (Jirachi and Deoxys) but we've not seen any mythical released so far and neither are water either.

Or Corsola perhaps!

Sorry, missed out the "g" there.

Is there a water legendary they could bring in as raid boss for it?

Perhaps we might get Relicanth here for the event period? Like they did with Kanaskhan.

I can't open that link because I'm at work but I assume by 'new gen 3 water pokemon' they can only mean Clampearl and it's two evolutions(Huntail and Gorebyss)? There aren't any other unreleased gen 3 waters.

Rumours of a water event with new Pokemon

We did a Lugia comfortably with 7 level 35 or above accounts this morning; I think 6 would have been fine. It wasn't weather boosted though.

So far no shiny Lugia for me, and none have been higher than the 89% I have from last summer, but I’ll keep going

CrabbitArse It will depend on the levels of those in the group and whether they have good counters.

Thanks Wartortle, on a good day then we might stand a chance, think the most we've managed to get together for a raid has been 8.

We did it comfortably weatherboosted with 8, though all were into second set of pokemon.

If all were high ish levels with powered up pokemon 5 would be possible but I think 7/8 is more realistic.

How many people are you all needing for a Lugia raid? I've read 5-15 so quite a big variation & my local team is pretty small so not sure if it's even worth trying

Hooray! We have snow again and I managed to catch a snowy castform. Thought I'd missed my chance as I didn't get one last time.

I did a few lugia raids today but didn’t manage to catch a shiny

I caught this today with the first ball and I’m rubbish at throwing so the 100% thing may well be true.

Got this, which is nice even if not shiny

I caught a Lugia today. Did two raids but the first one did a runner. No shiny but happy to have it for the Dex

Congratulations Jaime! I did my first Lugia of this round before but no shinies in my group unfortunately
