I have no idea who I've gifted and who I haven't. I tend to send one back when I get one. I'll make sure I fling them out when I have 5 now.

TangelasVine · 24/06/2018 21:15

I think it's 5 gifts in your bag at any one time. Can give away 20 per day and open 20 per day.

I promise I'll give everyone a gift soon. I don't play much at weekends and am receiving way more than I'm able to give out.

With the egg thing. There is a theory that I'm pokemon go the game gives you more of something you have already. So if you have heaps of balls and low on pineapples the stops will give you more balls. A lot of players leave 10k eggs unhatched as if there's on in your bag you are more likely to get more.
Probably urban myth before anyone asks I have no proof only anecdotal. Plus it's fun to hatch them all at once and put a star piece on Grin

SeahorsesAREhorses · 24/06/2018 20:56

Madame Fatso, that's glorious!

Does anyone know how many gifts you can hold at once? I've seen someone say 5. Does that mean that I have to give them away pretty quickly so that I can hold more?

The Irish egg was from my DS! (He sent out about 10 gifts today)

dillite · 24/06/2018 20:39

I have had my first alolan hatch from one of your eggs! It was a meowth who is now a persian. And we caught a wild alolan ratata today, who is now a raticate. Or madam fatso as dd calls it.

Has someone just unfriended me on Pokemon because of my glitch beliefs?! Grin

OutingMyDog · 24/06/2018 20:20

I'm surprised about that because I've seen discussion about it before, the last time it happened to me. It's Sunday evening though and I can't be bothered to look it up. It's pretty inconsequential anyway! Flowers

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 24/06/2018 20:13

OutingMyDog If it was a glitch, it would be a known glitch and there would be hundreds or thousands of players with the same. Yet I’ve tried looking for any evidence of this glitch online and nothing. It’s not even among the known issues on Niantic’s website.

It’s simply coincidence that sometimes all you get is 2km and other times it’s a mix. You are more likely to get a full egg display of 2km because they are the most common egg drops.

PickAChew · 24/06/2018 19:58

We all got nothing but 2k eggs through the water event, mind, unless it was a larvitar egg on community day.

OutingMyDog · 24/06/2018 19:53

Yes, it is a glitch. I've been playing the game since the day it came out. I know the rates of the eggs. If I get nothing but 2k eggs solidly for two weeks plus when I'm hatching them daily then it's a glitch. If it wasn't, what difference would stopping spinning stops make?

PolkerrisBeach · 24/06/2018 18:33

Thanks to whichever one of you lot sent me a gift of my first Irish egg! :-)

PickAChew · 24/06/2018 18:33

I've noticed that reward Pokémon have become jumpy like lured Pokémon. Have resorted to Nanab berries with a few

imnotadragon · 24/06/2018 18:25

Since the new update I'm finding so much more pidgeys & Ratatas again lol. Also noticed it's taking more balls and berries to catch Pokemon

TangelasVine · 24/06/2018 17:42

Iheart I've had that before when the coins haven't registered straight away. Restart the game and check your journal and that should fix it.

SeahorsesAREhorses · 24/06/2018 17:25

Just caught my first Absol, managed it with just me and dd, well chuffed.

I've failed miserably before but switched from the recommended and won with 46 seconds to spare.

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 24/06/2018 17:12

iheartmichellemallon Gyms run from midnight to midnight, so if you’re knocked out at 12.01am and don’t notice or realise, you’ve had your coins for the day (if above 50) and won’t get any until after midnight the next day.

iheartmichellemallon · 24/06/2018 17:09

Thanks to those who have added me - I've 10 friends now when I don't know anyone IRL who plays! Thanks also for the gifts.

Is there something going on with gyms ATM? I was in a gym today for a few hours & didn't get any coins Confused and I hadn't had any coins at all so far, so i wasn't at the max or anything!

TakeAChanseyOnMe · 24/06/2018 15:58

I’m enjoying seeing what Pokemon people have as their buddies!

Hatched some 2k eggs today so I have 4 Alolan eggs incubating. I’m off work tomorrow so will be going on a long walk. Grin

Duffmcstockings · 24/06/2018 15:23

Hi, I have added lots of you guys. My trainer number is 8125 8106 8326, if anyone want to add me.

PeppaP · 24/06/2018 15:08

I’ve added some codes from here. I have a male avatar but I’m female (obviously as username is MachampsMum 😬). My code is 4006 7751 4008

dillite · 24/06/2018 14:58

Thanks to this page I now have 35 friends. I don't have this many friends in real life! Don't think I even know 35 people (I'm sure I do). Is there a limit to how many gifts we can have at any one time? I was disappointed how few I received from stops today- we went on a long 3h walk and I only received 7 gifts, all of which have now been sent to you lot. I also have almost hatched an alolan eggs, once it cools down we will go and walj the remaining 600m to hatch it.

PolkerrisBeach · 24/06/2018 14:20

Just got a new style Meowth on an egg sent to me by one of you lovely people in Nottingham- so thanks very much!!

I always seem to have nine 2K eggs however many I hatch. I get rubbish Krabbies and Shellder

OrianaBanana Your current lot of 2km eggs will be because of the water event; the majority of egg drops were specifically 2km eggs as they had the ability to contain rarer Pokémon usually found in 10km eggs. The Shellder’s were welcomed by me too as increased chance of a shiny, though unfortunately not for me.

There seems to be a glitch where you get stuck on 2k eggs

OutingMyDog There isn’t an egg glitch - not all eggs have the same equal chance of dropping from PokeStops. 2km eggs are the most common drops, with 5km drops being uncommon and 10km drops being rare; hence having lots of 2km.

TangelasVine · 24/06/2018 11:11

It would be good if it could show # gifts sent and received then I could ensure everyone is getting one
