I hope that there's going to be more level 5 spawns during those 3 hours. In order to use 5 raid passes, I'd need all hatches to be level 5 and for the articuno to have hatched when the 3 hour window starts.

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 30/06/2018 10:36

When they say increased xp for catch does that mean you'll get double xp if you evolve too? I'm sittin' on a lot of pidgeys.

LumpySpacedPrincess No. It’s not a double XP event, you just get increased XP for the Pokémon you catch, the eggs you hatch and the raid battles you do.

Lucky eggs will last for an hour though, so I’d still use one and do your mass evolve. I do a mass evolve weekly on a lucky egg; it’s a great way to gain XP.

So new Sale on boxes in the store.

I haven't bothered looking much at the special box but the other 2 are good value even if all you want from them are the incubators.

I.e the great box will save you 220 coins vs buying 5 super incubators so all the other items are a 'free bonus'

Same with the Ultra box. It saves you 920 coins vs buying 12 super incubators. In fact it's such a good deal it makes them cheaper than buying 12 normal incubators. Even if you binned everything else in the box.

Yay finally caught Mew! Well actually DD caught it for me. Once the raids were done the last parts were quick.

I'm disappointed with the 3 hour raid window. It's very hard to raid with 2 DC aged 2 and under and noone else to look after them (DH works at weekends).

I struggle to get level 5 raids done normally due to not knowing far enough in advance when they are going to happen and then trying to get there on public transport in time (as I don't drive).

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 29/06/2018 23:55

Ooh shiny Articuno will be available for three hours next Saturday! Guess I’ll be spending those hours going from raid to raid Grin

My Id is Ginupgirl on that (as it'll make no sense with my ever changing MN id!)

I'm glad I've found out what I need to do with all those gift boxes that are clogging up my items. If you'd like any my trainer number is 3917 4776 6309 Smile

We have a pub near here which is a pokestop called The Naked Man

The postcard with "Greetings from the Naked Man" always makes me chuckle.

We also have "Man with Pole" which I think I've sent to at least one of you guys.

Around here we also laugh at one which is a statue of 3 Men in a Boat. But that's mainly at my expense as one day there was a raid there being organised and I was at work but saw the chat and quickly posted that could do it without much thought. And then when I got to the raid everyone was laughing because what I'd said was "I'm up for 3 Men at 5:00"

SirNilsOlav · 29/06/2018 20:55

There's a pokestop called "Back End of a Cow" in Edinburgh which made me laugh.

CrabbitArse · 29/06/2018 18:08

We have one called Giant Nuts which never fails to raise a smile Smile

TakeAChanseyOnMe · 29/06/2018 17:49

Also hatched a rattata earlier. I’m out of incubators so if my one egg incubating is another rattata I will not be amused!

“Wee Jock” is probably the oddest named gym I’ve been to, most are things like “church” or “park entrance.”

Sadly, Fighting Cocks is only a pokestop and not a gym.

It's an evolution item

What's a king rock? I got it from a gift from someone in here x

TangelasVine · 29/06/2018 16:29

I used to have an after work pint in Dirty Dicks many years ago Grin

So Aloha Rattata is now in 7km eggs. It's worse than the heyday of Sudowoodo

Kpo58 · 29/06/2018 13:13

Not had gifts, but the most amusing gyms I have been in are

  • Bananas Bar
  • Blue men climbing
  • chick in boots
  • Dirty Dicks
  • Dragon boundary mark
  • Monty python fish slapping
  • Rising from the earth (where I battled a Groudon)
  • space invader
  • visitors from another galaxy
TangelasVine · 29/06/2018 09:28

On 9 raids now thanks to the tip about joining the lobby. I thought I had to win them!

Got all the alohans now that are available thanks to the gifts. I need to evolve them next time I have a lucky egg session.

Anyone else getting gifts from funny pokestops. My favourites so far are a blue mushroom, a giant possum and a drain cover Grin

tumpymummy · 29/06/2018 07:52

The majority of my 7km eggs have been Meowth - bored of those now (must have had about 8), plus 1 sandshrew and 1 vulpix (who is quite cute). I'd like a rainbow grimer next please!

DoctorTwo · 29/06/2018 06:13

So far I have hatched 11 Meowth and 5 Sandshrews, one of each got evolved. Oh, after the football I hatched a Grimer which was a relief. Not fussed about Snorlax as the reward, I already have 6 good ones, plus one rubbish wild catch.
