New thread. No routes where I am. We're going to be at Pokémon Go Fest on 6 August. V excited.

@ISaySteadyOn my buddy won't work either. I've tried using DD's account on a different phone and get the same error message. My buddy has a gift I can't access, so even more annoying!

I've just added you - I'm HeleniaBram.

Tip for friendship levels - you get a lot of XP (50000/100000) for going Ultra/Best Friends with someone. You can check how many interactions away you are from this - if you want to max out your XP you can save that final interaction for when you are using a lucky egg, to double the XP you receive for it. Quite a lot of people tend to use one on community days, which is a good time to try to level up!

Hi I've just downloaded Pokémon Go after years of not playing and wow it's changed! I wondered if anyone wanted to add me 'jenz454' so I could have some friends please? I'm still finding my feet with it so any tips would be great. Am I right in saying you can give and get gifts with friends?

You can exchange gifts. I will add you.

I started off on the previous thread asking for tips and ended up starting this one. Maybe you will start the next one . Here's my simple tip which you have probably remembered already: when you are catching a 'mon, the colour of the circle tells you how hard it will be to catch. You can change the colour by using berries or different pokeballs to make it easier. Best if the circle is green.

On a different note, anyone had trouble playing with their buddy? I keep getting error messages when I try.

I've added you, not sure I have that many useful tips, I'm still mostly here to receive them!

Arghdress - thankyou for the KYOGRE invite, I got a birthday shiny!!!

gillybean2 · 15/03/2024 18:01

I churned through the eggs thanks to slow traffic on the way to work and lots of incubators and got 3 so was able to evolve both forms. Ds hasn’t got any yet but still has a couple of potential eggs to incubate.

The GPS on his phone doesn’t seem to trip out like mine does. I can easily hatch a 2km egg sat in the sofa of an evening while his phone doesn’t move an inch.

IMO these sort of events are purely to force incubators sales for those who suffer with fomo.

BattleSymphony · 14/03/2024 23:49

@thirdfiddle The odds weren't very good at all, I managed to hatch one from over 70 eggs. Now it's even worse as they are only in 10km eggs.

thirdfiddle · 14/03/2024 19:41

Failed to hatch the new whatsit from any of my event eggs, hatched another larvesta instead. So now a mere 325 odd required...

Only 342 more candies to evolve my Larvesta. Lots of walking and raids to do.

@gillybean2 that's great, the realisation has hit me that I still only have a limited number of eggs, so will wait until I've got someone else to go at the same time.

I'm really enjoying the current season, there's quite a few Pokémon which I got a few of in the autumn and then they vanished for the winter. None of them are terribly exciting, but it's nice to finally get a few more so I can evolve them. Also been waiting ages for 5 exeggcute for the meltan task and have got 4 in the last couple of days, so might be able to get that completed at last!

thirdfiddle · 05/03/2024 08:40

I'd forgotten about the special researches at all gremlin, it takes me so long to get through these levels. Half way through 47 so I will look forward to the level 48 one. (Maybe in time for summer holidays... Sooo much xp requirement...)

SneakyGremlin · 04/03/2024 17:40

Guess who didn't realise that the next special research is at level 48. Not 47. All excitement gone now...

@gillybean2 I think we're due to level up today, does that mean I can just open anytime, rather than trying to co-ordinate? It's so wet and miserable today I'm trying to work up the enthusiasm to go out and do it at the same time as my 7 day streak pokestop spin!

@AlmostLegendary open whenever suits you. I don’t need the xp

And well done on levelling up @SneakyGremlin I'm on level 46 and still only have 1 fully powered up Pokémon for the task. I started this level with absolutely no XP and I now have more than twice the amount to level up, it's just this bloody task that's holding me back.

Tarkan · 03/03/2024 12:45

I have that too! Fab idea, and we'll miss less double XP chances now. I have a lot of PoGo friends in Japan who I don't have any way of knowing who they are so we've never been able to coordinate. I'm also the worst at forgetting to check and accidentally opening gifts without checking with the other side, so that will help them from me doing that too.

SocksAndTheCity · 03/03/2024 11:58

When I got it a 'Use A Lucky Egg' button appeared with a picture of a Lucky Egg at the bottom of the screen - this is when the levelling up screen comes up

KevinAndHerKits · 03/03/2024 11:23

gillybean2 · 03/03/2024 11:15

Wow, they’ve finally introduced an option to put a lucky egg on when you level up friendship. Not sure if that’s across the board yet or if I’m a tester. I seem to get new features ahead of them being fully rolled out.

Wow, that's exciting. It almost feels like cheating. How does it work exactly?
