Old thread was almost full and it had to be done.

The timing of that bug at 8pm couldn't have been worse. That's exactly when our local players all agree to put on a lucky egg and exchange gifts every week. Thankfully my account sorted itself out by about 8.15pm and I managed to level up to L37 but not everyone's did.

Still no Kanga or Taurus here, several mimes and 1 farfetched though.

I have been sitting in traffic a lot this and last week amd have found that it's great for hatching eggs, especially when your average speed is something like 10mph.

Just my luck today it would bug the only time I could get out to get a few stops today. Have a poorly DS so was stuck in until DH got home. All caught up now though at least.

The new tag for ex-raid hosting gyms sounds useful!

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 19/09/2018 21:02

It’s fixed now, OhLookHeKickedTheBall Smile It was only bugging for 20~ minutes.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 19/09/2018 20:45

Thanks sneaky and what.
I'll try to pop back in later and hope it's resolved

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 19/09/2018 20:29

OhLookHeKickedTheBall The game was universally down/bugging for everyone about twenty minutes ago. Think it’s fixed now.

SirNilsOlav · 19/09/2018 20:12

Me too Pick.

Unown is a trophy rather than being any use, just nice to have. Similarly my 100% Weedle Grin

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 20:08

I had that issue yesterday OhLook But not today.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 19/09/2018 20:06

Is anyone else having problems with the game today? It won't let me get gifts saying error. But if I go back in the gift has gone. Also won't let me send any gifts. Pokemon and pokestops are randomly erroring as well.

DD has the same problem too.

MeetMeInMontauk · 19/09/2018 19:47

Unown doesn't really have any meta utility though, does it? It's cachet is centred around its super-rarity in game (trophy mon).

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 19/09/2018 19:12

SneakyGremlins I think in the last data crunch out of 6 million spawns, Unown only came up once!

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 19:07

Grin that made me laugh Tangelas

TangelasVine · 19/09/2018 19:05

Sneaky it might've been around the time I needed new glasses but I found it hard to spot. I think I'd easily walk past one.

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 19:05

Wailmer, I was asking if you had a percentage or anything not saying you didn't know it was rare Grin

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 19:04

Finally leveled up Grin

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 19/09/2018 19:01

Wailmer, do you have any idea how rare unown is? Never seen one.

SneakyGremlins Of course I do! The only ones I have are from the event last year.

My point, though, is that despite how rare it is, it does have the ability to spawn anytime anywhere.

I saw loads of speculation about a Mewtoo event on tsr.

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 18:59

How tiny? Shock

TangelasVine · 19/09/2018 18:58

Unown is rare. If someone spots one they do post it on a local group but usually too far to run to it! They seem to appear not at pokestops so don't appear on the nearby. Also really tiny so hard to see.

I got a few during the event but that's it.

SneakyGremlins · 19/09/2018 18:55

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 19/09/2018 18:51

SirNilsOlav I did say few people specifically catch a plane just to catch a regional, not none altogether. But that’s really by the by, because if you went to catch Corsola in Dorrtmund, it had already been moved for the event, as in it wasn’t in its original location, and you knew it was a possibility.

However again, that’s another failure by Niantic.

I wasn’t just talking about my group; I’m involved in several Pokemon groups including TSR and I must have missed this “prediction” Confused

DoctorTwo · 19/09/2018 18:39

I had a good day today. I had 5 Alolan eggs cooking simultaneously. They all hatched, and were, in order, Kangaskhan, Sandshrew, Meowth, Tauros and Meowth. My Kanto 'Dex is now complete. :o

Today was also the day to complete the 7 day Field Research task so I caught another Entei. To put the tin hat on the day I caught the last 9Grass/Psychic types I needed and caught Celebi. I am quite pleased.

SirNilsOlav · 19/09/2018 16:05

I know Corsola is regional but the release of Corsola out of its region was advertised as specifically for the Dortmund event and people in my group and others did spend money to fly there for Corsola, then felt pretty hard done by when it then was spawning across Europe.

Perhaps in your group of players nobody saw the wider mewtwo release coming, but I know in mine people had thought it would happen eventually and by far the most common prediction I saw on Twitter/the Silph Road for the ultra bonus unlock was "Mewtwo day".
