Witch how did you manage that without the new stops?! That's the task that's worrying me lol

bettytaghetti · 25/10/2018 19:05

Ok, many thanks Derek! Glad to be soon-to-be-besties. 

And thanks Trash; I missed that!

GhoulishGremlins · 25/10/2018 18:09

So I need a health app? Hmm

WitchSharkadder · 25/10/2018 18:08

Also, I completed the catch 108 Pokemon and caught Spiritomb. Didn’t even need to spin any new stops.

WitchSharkadder · 25/10/2018 18:07

New announcement. Now PoGo will sync with your health app so you’ll hatch eggs even when the app isn’t open.

@TangelasVine belated thanks! I’ve just remembered that what got me back into Pokemon Go was waiting in Euston this time last year. I’ll just go where I’d usually go (likely Covent Garden) so glad to hear there’s lots everywhere.

Hopefully the flat I’m staying in will be on top of a Pokestop!

BaronessBomburst · 25/10/2018 16:40

That's almost my take too, Wailmer but there's a level 40 trainer in the village who feeds all the red gyms. The record is 8 days as a mega gym before it got taken by the blues across the river. We had it back within two hours. It's kind of a status thing among us local reds. It's OUR gym.

Solo'd my first ever Tier 3 today and feel unreasonably proud Grin

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 25/10/2018 16:05

the local gyms are full of hungry pokes: 3,000+ monsters down to 400 CP, so I'm clearly not the only one.

BaronessBomburst A Pokemon’s CP naturally depletes over time in gyms anyway, and if people don’t want or already have gold on those gyms, they aren’t going to berry them up anyway.

I don’t berry gyms unless I need gold as there’s little point.

BaronessBomburst · 25/10/2018 14:40

I need fruit!
I've not even reached 50 with the berry feeding challenge yet and I'm down to two pinaps. The pokestops here are dispensing great balls and revivers like they're going out of fashion and the local gyms are full of hungry pokes: 3,000+ monsters down to 400 CP, so I'm clearly not the only one.

JuniLoolaPalooza · 25/10/2018 13:42

Thanks for your reply wailmer re power & tasks. I'm progressing with the berries task, and plenty of pokestops I've never been to here in the city.
I'm just bugged about the gift drop rate going down. I did about 20 stops today and got about 4!

derekthe1adyhamster · 25/10/2018 12:53

Well I don't quite know why I rushed through it all! Still it made for a fun couple of days Halloween Grin

TangelasVine · 25/10/2018 12:39

I've realised there are some stops I haven't spun in my town. But they are in a huge graveyard - saw them from the bus. I may be taking this Halloween event to extremes by going in graveyards Grin

tryingtocatchthewind · 25/10/2018 12:35

There’s only two tasks, the third task is just to catch it

derekthe1adyhamster · 25/10/2018 12:16

Yes, please don't worry about me!(pinkhebe) .
Does anyone know what the next task is? I'm 105 out of 108 Pokemon caught and I need to empty my bag. I just wanted to check it wasn't something like evolve 108 Pokemon.....

TrashPanda · 25/10/2018 11:48

@bettytaghetti pinkhebe said on the last thread she wasn't worried about xp as nearly 40 so didn't need to coordinate gifts

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 25/10/2018 10:44

Cyndaquil has been revealed as the next community day Pokemon!

pokemongolive.com/events/community-day/

I’m not so fussed about Cyndaquil, but I do like the bonus 2x catch XP and stardust.

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 25/10/2018 10:41

I think as long as you start the research while it's available, you can take your time finishing it?

WickedLazy That has been the case with Mew and Celebi however Niantic have said this special research is limited time only, presumably only lasting until the end of the event. So you won’t be able to take your time with it.

I am also going to post this again because it is very important:

For anyone getting others to log in for them in another location, be very careful. Niantic is cracking down hard on cheating and spoofing.

Just make sure you leave enough travel time. So if your friend logs out of your account at 3.00pm in another town, don’t log in in your hometown until the time it would take you to get back there, else it will flag up.

So if it takes 40 minutes to get back, wait at least 40 minutes (if not more).

Many accounts have been banned because trainers got others to log in for them in a different location.

mikapatika · 25/10/2018 10:36

@plornish yes! So funny I’d named them bumface and bumtrump😂

Igneococcus · 25/10/2018 08:57

Yeah efferlunt that may work. I'm sure there are other people in rural locations which will have difficulties with that task, we could do pokestops for each other.

Efferlunt · 25/10/2018 08:39

Igne could you get a friend to log in as you somewhere else?

Igneococcus · 25/10/2018 08:31

Wickedlady that would be good, I can get new pokestops when I travel but I'm not going anywhere until December.
I had a look at a pokestop map and there are 6 within 40 miles that I don't think we've ever been to but 4 of them (if gyms count) are in an attraction that has closed down (because it was ridiculously expensive) and we wouldn't be able to get to them.
