I'm thecrazyonesmum, I would have thought of something more inspired if I knew I'd be sticking with it!

I keep getting 0 star shinies and struggle to see the point of them sometimes. We have a local gym where everyone follows a theme, so yellow shinies one time, pink another. If it wasn't for that no-one would even know I had them. Still want a shiny chansey though. 🤣

The only thing to do with 0* shinies is to mirror trade them. Ideally when you’re lucky friends so you get a guarantee of a better one. Saying that I have 358 currently ( not including community day ones and other excessive duplicates I’ve dumped )

Ds is in your list of friends you’re trying to coordinate with (8 days). He doesn’t need xp so open whenever suits. I would just say don’t send him a gift for the last day as he/me tend to open without always checking.

The only shiny Chansey I have has flowers on its head so a normal one would be good too.

My kids don't play any more but every time I get a new shiny I tell them and say "guess what colour it was?". My 15yo laughs as almost every single one of them seems to be green.

Awesome!

@AlmostLegendary , happy to coordinate eggs but can you remind me your PoGo name?

I am looking forward to Chansey community day. I like the shinies and haven't got one yet.

Eww the shinies are a nasty colour

ISaySteadyOn · 29/01/2024 09:01

And I just caught Galarian Articuno on the way back from dropping DD1 at school. 😁

I think I just manifested a 100% Scatterbug. Grin I was opening gifts and doing the postcards and thinking about how many hundreds of them I must have caught by now but hadn't had any 100% ones, and then immediately caught a garden one which was 100% when I appraised it.

AlmostLegendary · 28/01/2024 22:30

I'm trying to get my eggs in order for next batch of friendship levelling up.

Uniquewyre - we're ready to go to ultra friend

Best friends due:
GohE2017 - 6 days
Veasard - 8 days
Galarianpony - 9 days
Schmoigle1234 - 11 days

I'd like to try and hang on so I can get you all together, if that isn't too much of a pain! I'm always short of coins and still need more Pokémon and item storage, so trying not to spend too much on eggs.

Can we try and find a time to all go together if you want to match eggs?

ISaySteadyOn · 21/01/2024 09:23

Yes, tis definitely Blanche. I like Primeape's happy little dance though so I am glad it is my buddy.

Master league blanche has metagross as her middle Pokémon i think. If you can get out there are dozens of grunts, psychic or ghost obvs, fairy grunt usually has a ralts or two. Any others?

Is annihilape actually good for anything particular except ticking off Pokédex? Raids or battle leagues? Upgraded one I hoped would be GL or UL profile and it's sitting inconveniently way below or just above the thresholds. So now I wondering if it's worth trying again.

ISaySteadyOn · 20/01/2024 15:32

Which league should you battle Blanche in then? Ultra? Master? Because in Great league, her sneasel is just dark type.

Am happy with porygon catches. No perfect but a bunch of shinies.

Wow. Will have to check that out.

That was a lot of Blanche battles Grin

I just battled Blanche too and got one. Properly easier than taking chances in PvP battles unless you battle a lot anyway.

PickAChew · 19/01/2024 00:05

It works.

The guy in our group got it quickly because he used low CP ones on his wife's account and just battled her. I'm now annoyed that my kids gave up playing because that would be handy right now.

PickAChew · 18/01/2024 23:55

And yep, rumour is correct

PickAChew · 18/01/2024 23:53

Apparently battling against master league blanche courts towards the evolution as she has metagross.

SneakyGremlin · 18/01/2024 23:26

Is that the one that got so angry it died?

Tarkan · 18/01/2024 20:57

Someone in our local group has posted that the Mankey/Primeape next evolution of Annihilape has been released early.

I'd love to meet another Pokémon Go player and MNer. This week isn't good as it is DS' intensive swimming and I am helping with the herding of 21 9 yos but after that, I am pretty available. I just hope I have something you want to trade you.

DD1 had a day off school yesterday and we went to an exhibit together. On the bus, she saw me playing and she has Pokémon Go on her phone too. She hasn't been into it but yesterday she saw the fun and we ended up playing companiably together. She even challenged me to a battle. It was really lovely. She's 13 so I treasure these moments where Mum is not too bad, really.

That's cool. Drop me a line and we can see if we can make diaries line up.

I play with my nine year old. It's a nice thing to do together.

Mariekachu02 · 18/01/2024 09:24

Just level up when you’re ready. 😀

If you want to try to arrange a meet let me know. I'm in the City/Holborn area a couple of days a week for work.

ISaySteadyOn · 17/01/2024 21:13

I live in London so I am always there 🙂
