Pokemon Go #17: Mankey Gone To Heaven

Just wanted to share 😬😁 added a few of you so don't be surprised if you get a random request.... hurrying back to catch up with old threads....

Nice! I love seeing where gifts are from. Dh has a mate who plays and goes to NY sometimes, so I'm living in hope!

My friend has an egg from New Delhi

@soupforbrains @TheFimbleFowl @minicat79 @TangelasVine Iv requested you all, I don't know anyone in real life that plays

I ALSO want the ability to order my friends list, so I can keep track of what I've sent to whom, and send eggs to MN and overseas people first. Local group friends can wait/do trades instead of getting 🎁!

I have a group of players I know - none by name - who occasionally loiter by the town hall near my friend's shop so I always go out and say hi and raid with them. But I'm not on Facebook so I'm hoping to see them again so I can add them as friends!

Right now, for example, had I been able to stash loads of eggs, I could be sending out gifts. As it is, I shall have to drag myself out of bed and go for a walk about twenty times around the block.... or persuade the kids they reeeeeally want a bus ride to the end of a route and back. 😬

That sounds tedious, Outing.

Tangelasvine - I've also really enjoyed finding new stuff.

My current bugbear (other than having to rein in my tendency to spin every stop I can in case I get a normal egg when I accidentally have an egg space open!) is the new 5 limit on holding gifts. I would also like to be able to chuck eggs gifts, so I can just keep the ones from the coolest pokestops to send out. #shallow

I have a job that kind of makes me a bit of a public figure (not in a celebrity way!) and that puts me off the social side. The other day I left work and was about to join a raid but saw that a few characters I knew through work were about to too and kept walking.

There seems to be a glitch where you get stuck on 2k eggs. A couple of times I've had to stop spinning stops until I get rid of them all then when it's empty I get a normal mix.

They could do with a holding area for present eggs, or allow you to delete eggs.

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

I am so glad they are rolling out other ways to catch the legendary birds. Some rural players, disabled players, players with young kids or just unsociable beans need a second way.

I work in my town and don't really want to hang out there. My group is in another town but I love discovering new towns. We tend to plan a trip to London then just rock up to a big group when we see one.

I am so annoyed about egg spaces at the mo, daren't open anything until I have a space. They could do with a holding area for present eggs, or allow you to delete eggs.

I’m not solo by choice - I don’t know anyone local who plays and with a small baby at home I can’t really go out to raids at all hours specially. She doesn’t even like standing around while I battle in the non-raid gym. At work they rarely happen in my half hour lunch break at the one gym nearby and when they do, if I am out that day, I don’t know any other players and there never seems to be a group there.

I'm mainly solo too, I love walking around and this sounds daft but is true - I've learnt loads from pokestops. Found some really interesting stuff by varying my route!

I have chatted to some local players, mainly the ones around my age but more in passing. I feel a bit weird going up to a bunch of schoolkids so I don't!
It's possible to raid in central London without socialising. There's so many people especially if it's a new black egg and a busy time e.g. lunchtime. I never see enough people locally though and my local Facebook page is completely silent

I’m a solo player. Mostly because I don’t know anyone who plays. I enjoy the game and have a fun doing what I do, but I wouldn’t mind having some friends If anyone wants to add me I’m 0471 8987 3454 and have a similar name to on here. I will warn you I have little idea as to what I’m doing

I’ve added some from earlier on. My code is 0024 0463 2364 if anyone wants to add me. Very similar name to on here.

I play the game mostly solo, sometimes DH and I go out together. I get satisfaction from filling my Pokédex with what is possible for me to get. Got nearly everything now. No use hankering afterbthings only available from big raids.

Some people like filling their dex, some enjoy a good walk.

I know, I was just talking about me and my enjoyment of the game.

But even so, you can’t catch them all and completely fill your Dex without going to raids.

This game appeals to lots of people who may find socialising quite stressful.

It's a big game with lot's of aspect that appeals to all sorts.

Not everyone is social though.

Some people like filling their dex, some enjoy a good walk.

I’m actually quite surprised by the number of solo players.

I don’t think I would be able to play or enjoy the game without the social aspect! Going to raids and meeting up with our raid group is a huge part of the game for me and without it it definitely wouldn’t be the same.

I play with my 8 year old (gets him to walk with me!) and we don’t know anyone who plays. Have added some numbers from here and if anyone wants to add me my code is 2404 5645 1775

This is so much fun! Traded a spare Snorlax with dd this morning which filled a hole in her dex. Love this game!

Thanks to whoever added me! Haven’t been out really today so will return gifts when I can spin more stops.

I had loads of incubators but the 2k eggs with the water festival burnt through them really quickly! I have one Aloan egg incubating but need to hatch the other 8x2k ones before opening any more gifts.
