Shiny new thread starts here. Will it be the last one of 2018?

witch thanks for the info re phone settings, I'll try that. Sorry to be a glitchy letdown cP101.

Nice one Baroness. I'm pondering getting a phone for DD so she can play/go through the pokedex. But she's only 4 so I don't know if that's ridiculously indulgent (more likely the latter knowing me).

pottypotamus · 15/12/2018 11:08

Sounds good to me!

tumpymummy · 15/12/2018 11:08

What about setting a time when mumsnetters could come on line to battle? How about we set 8pm as a time?

pottypotamus · 15/12/2018 10:32

Also is anyone up for battling this morning?
I haven't tried the remote battling yet.

pottypotamus · 15/12/2018 10:31

@WitchSharkadder
I'm Bansbull. Haha no problem. I've triggered ultra with other people without realising so I know it's easily done Blush

BaronessBomburst · 15/12/2018 10:21

Look! Grin
I actually caught a T5!
I may or may not change the fast attack; I've got plenty of Fast TMs but then again a deoxys seems to be pretty useless.
The other bit of excitement was that we realised I could go ultra with DS' second account on the morning of the battle. He ended up fighting on two phones and I had his level 22 account on a tethered tablet - his best counters were nidoqueens. Grin With 15 players in the battle it was easy and we caught the deoxys on all three accounts.
Now I really want an Ho-oh!

@catchyjem - have just sent you a friend request. I’m Mumpops.

catchyjem · 15/12/2018 09:54

Wow, seems even though having over 150 on my friends list I still have some of you missing from here Blush

Here's my code again if anyone wants it 5534 0096 9519.

Actually I think I'm going to have to purge my list as some people haven't interacted with me for over a month now.

MonaChopsis · 15/12/2018 09:28

Thanks WitchSharkadder I checked and my phone wasn't on auto time, so hopefully that solves the problem!!

Wailmer yes I contacted Niantic but they don't respond individually to bug reports.

JuniLoolaPalooza · 15/12/2018 09:24

CP101 I tried to accept and nothing happened! So challenged you. Humph!

JuniLoolaPalooza · 15/12/2018 09:13

Morning, I'm going to put an egg on at 10 all being well. I think I'm going ultra with bettyfrogg and mothmothingyton. In spite of wailers excellent explanation my little brain can't compute.
I'm free for battling if anyone fancies - user winnieq

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 15/12/2018 03:48

MonaChopsis Yeah, that one. That’s a shame then Sad Have you contacted Niantic and reported it?

Oh, sorry! I thought you could just add people, my apologies.

Dimsumlosesum You can just add anyone from these threads; they put their friends codes out there for friends. You can send and receive gifts and battle long distance with ultra and best friends.

However, you cannot trade long distance, so if you want to trade you either have to meet up with someone from this thread or find other players in your local area.

WitchSharkadder · 15/12/2018 00:39

Bansbull, my apologies but I think just triggered Ultra with you on my DS’s account. I don’t keep track of his friendship levels so wasn’t paying attention, I picked up his phone because a mom that he needs spawned so just decided to do other stuff on there too Blush I hope you see this before you open the app, but if not take comfort in the fact that I’m in deep trouble with DS for faffing with his PoGo Grin

WitchSharkadder · 15/12/2018 00:34

Sorry, if I’d have seen your message at the time I would’ve, Bimble.

Luco, sorry I missed your request too.

For anyone struggling to battle due to glitches, someone has just posted on my local group that going into your phone settings —> time & date settings and then switching off and on (or just on if already off) ‘auto time’ seems to fix the issue.

I don’t know if it works as I had no problems myself but it might be worth a try Smile

Bimblepops · 14/12/2018 23:37

Sorry, too late. Another time!

Bimblepops · 14/12/2018 23:13

Does anyone fancy a quick trainer battle now? I’m Mumpops

TangelaHair · 14/12/2018 23:06

Checking in - loving the new thread song

Luco006 · 14/12/2018 22:20

Thanks for the battle @slipperboots. Definitely a moral victory for your team on the last there.

eurochick · 14/12/2018 22:16

Sorry catchy. Got caught up on something. Maybe over the weekend?

Slipperboots · 14/12/2018 22:14

@luco our battle has frozen on me - so very near....

Dimsumlosesum · 14/12/2018 21:57

Oh, sorry! I thought you could just add people, my apologies.

MonaChopsis · 14/12/2018 21:10

wailmer do you mean this one? If so, I have definitely tried that!!

Randomly, does any want a Farfetched? Got a few now for share-sies.

Dimsumlosesum You can only trade with someone you’re within 100m of. You cannot long distance trade, so you’d have to meet up with someone.
