Hi all, just wondering what the 3 tasks are in 3/3 of the Halloween special research?

PickAChew · 27/10/2018 10:42

Do, next month's research reward is Shedinja! DS1 is well pleased.

BaronessBomburst · 27/10/2018 10:21

@HakunaRattatas Brilliant! I'll set an alarm for 15 mins before. And won't forget that the clicks go back.
I've never seen a shiny either. Maybe I'll get lucky with the gengar raids next weekend. Now that would be cool!

ContraryToPopularBelief · 27/10/2018 09:44

Does anyone understand Adventure Sync? Has it started?
This will make a huge difference to egg hatching and Buddy candy. But it's not clear if you need to activate it or if it'll just happen.

My health app already has access to PoGo as we use my Apple Watch to play sometimes.

HakunaRattatas · 27/10/2018 09:25

@BaronessBomburst ok I will open the gift at 11 tomorrow morning then. I will also open my gifts from Nexus17 and ZapdosStrike at the same time unless they tell me differently.

Shedinja is the new research breakthrough for November so that's exciting. Shiny caterpie coming too which means another shiny for me to never see.

PickAChew · 27/10/2018 00:34

The last 3 are automatic, same as other special research.

My 1000 club, soon to be obliterated if they go ahead with the cp changes, is growing.

Carp I was in London but around Leicester Square and China town. I finished the mini special but have no idea what the last three things were to do as I automatically had them completed!

putthehamsterbackinitscage · 26/10/2018 22:02

@BaronessBomburst 

Swirliecat is a play in my furry crittur's name...

GreenShadow · 26/10/2018 20:08

I've completed the 108 Pokemon and was almost horrified that I managed to catch them all in one day without going too much out of my way!

I do have quite a long walk to and from work, but even so...

Now I just need to find some new Stops to spin which will be a lot harder.

BaronessBomburst · 26/10/2018 19:17

hamster DS has added you and was delighted to see that you have almost identical usernames!

Rattatus DS says anytime over the weekend so maybe set a time for Sunday? Then I'll have a chance to check MN first.
Thank you.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 26/10/2018 15:53

Managed to complete the mini special research today thanks to finding some stops near DHs work I've not hit before. And got a nice batch of unown too. Not bad for a random trip to take the dc to their dfs work!

TangelasVine · 26/10/2018 09:53

Anyone in London today - unown is spawning for comic con.
I'm unfortunately not there today

putthehamsterbackinitscage · 26/10/2018 09:46

If anybody isn't already on my friends list, I need new friends for field research

1918 9590 3255 is my code ...

HakunaRattatas · 26/10/2018 09:03

@BaronessBomburst Apologies I missed your message earlier. Is there a good time over the weekend for me to open my gift from silke106 so he gets a lucky egg on?

Also nexus17 and zapdos strike I'm still sitting on gifts from you that will make us beat friends. Do you want to coordinate?

TangelasVine · 26/10/2018 08:25

That's great thank you. Means travelling or breaking into graveyards isn't essential Grin

TrashPanda · 26/10/2018 00:04

The pokestop bit just gives xp, if you do that, catch 10 dark and 108 Pokemon you can get balls, stardust and silver pinaps then go to 3/3. Those 3 tasks autocomplete for just xp I think and then you get spiritomb candy I think. That's off the top of my head so I might have got the last bit slightly wrong.

TangelasVine · 25/10/2018 23:57

So if the catching pokemon task gets you Spiritomb, what does the 8 new pokestops get you? I'm a bit confused. But good news for me that it's not essential.

TrashPanda · 25/10/2018 23:50

If you use a berry and it escapes you don't have to leave the catch screen and go back in, you can just use another berry and both will register. It also counts if the Pokemon runs. If you don't want to use balls you can berry the Pokemon then leave the catch screen and it will register one.

@TakeAChanseyOnMe I think we go Ultra when the next gift is opened, did you want to do a lucky egg?

MrsJamin · 25/10/2018 23:36

For those still catching 108 pokemon with berries, I found that if you give a nanab Berry, do a straight catch with a red ball, if it escapes (quite likely), then go back to the map, you get the credit and then do the same thing again. I think I got 4 or 5 credits for the same murkrow so I'm nearly at the total even though I haven't actually caught many!

WitchSharkadder · 25/10/2018 22:04

Yy, Tallulah it Spiritomb was my reward for catching 108 mons. So you’ll still get to add it to your dex even if you can’t get 8 new stops before the event ends. It’s just the XP and the other task completion bits and bobs you won’t get.

Efferlunt · 25/10/2018 21:44

Great news about the health app! I can’t run Pokémon when I’m out walking as the battery goes too fast. I hope it works properly tho. I had to stop letting it have my health data on my Apple Watch because it recorded every time I played Pokémon as a workout and messaged details to my workout buddies, mainly DH who was very snarky about getting messages re my ten minute walk to the shop and the school run on a daily basis.

TallulahBetty · 25/10/2018 20:39

Oooh I see. Makes sense thanks. And yes I was wondering about November too. Need to know if it's worth waiting for or getting a 5th Suicane.

MonaChopsis · 25/10/2018 20:10

Tallulah I think Spiritomb is the reward encounter from the 'catch 108 pokemon' task.

Does anyone know what the 7 day reward pokemon is going to be in November yet?

anitagreen · 25/10/2018 19:10

That is wicked is it the health app we Have already on the iPhone ?
