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

Thanks for all the adds, all. :)

Trade a rubbish one with someone you are lucky with and it should improve.
Don’t make the mistake I did of jumping the gun and evolving mine before it came up in the special tasks.
As pp says they will likely be back for global fest. Hopefully you won’t need to buy a ticket to do them.

Purpletoes · 08/08/2023 19:27

I have some from previous raids not mega but have enough mega energy to evolve them.

The ones I won from the go fest morning are all rubbish and only 2 star.

The raids will be back for global go fest on the Sunday at the end of the month

Unfortunately not. I raided one but couldn't catch it. Have just been doing routes in the City. Some are very confusing cos of all the construction.

Have you got an older Rayquaza @ISaySteadyOn ?

It doesn't have to be a Go Fest one - all the ones I caught had crap IVs so I did my two (regular and shiny) best existing ones. If not then yes, it'll wait until they come round again

Am feeling slightly frustrated. Did not manage to get a Rayquaza at all so no idea how, if, or when I will complete that task of mega evolving one. Are there raids still going on or is rayquaza gone for now?

DS v philosophical. 'Well, Mummy, that task will be around for a long time.'😀

Hi I just got the 'Make a New Friend' task 😂 Anyone feel free to add me- 2905 4204 7776 x

porridgeisbae · 07/08/2023 12:50

@CantStandMeow Thanks a lot. Requested.

Purpletoes · 07/08/2023 11:31

We had a great time as well. We spent the morning on the southbank then got the bus to Brockwell Park thankfully the shower hit whilst we were on the bus. My son loved how fast all the raids were and we managed to do the mega rayquaaza before the park. The only thing is our routes are still crashing. We each got 14 or so shiny not as many as others.

I have recommended to friends if they have the global ticket to go into town if they can as it just makes it so much easier. We came away with 4 teddies and lots of the paper hats 🤣.

@Wurz , have sent you a friend request (GalarianPony920).

I had a great time at GoFest yesterday. The weather was fine and my battery lasted just long enough to do the last raid and text DH we were coming home.

We did go into the merchandise tent and came out with an Eevee hat and a JigglyPuff. DD2 made a paper felt tip for her when we got home in reference to the JigglyPuff episode in the television series.

On the way home, we met a group of people going the same direction and one of them was dressed as Ash. His costume was amazing. He even had all the badges. So we chatted to him about Pokémon all the way to the tube which was a lovely end to the day.

I will know better how to manage if GoFest comes to London again. But it was great.

Whoops @porridgeisbae tried to reply to you and failed miserably!

CantStandMeow · 06/08/2023 20:09

I recognise your name from the Discord chat but we're not friends in game. If you want to add me feel free - 1609 2727 0984. I'm Iscla in game, DD has a (very) similar name to me and DH plays in a similar name to this MN one incase you have any of them

Hi all,

I was on these threads ages ago but dropped off since the discord started.

Went to a rainy go fest on Saturday

My code for WurzelPerry is 2023 4503 2393
I level up friendships at the start of community days usually unless that doesn't suit people
3844 0953 2886 is WurzelCider who is lower on gifts but still plays daily

@Wurz Would love a link to join the discord if it's still going?

BattleSymphony · 06/08/2023 15:42

We went yesterday afternoon and even the weather didn't stop us having a great time. A couple of us had a few laggy moments but all in all the signal was fine, considering how many people were there.

I was a bit disappointed that mega Rayquaza wasn't in any raids in the park but any raid that has full lobby's is great fun regardless.

Pretty happy with my shiny haul, a couple missing from my wish list but will try again at global.

Hope everyone else that went had an amazing time.

@SuperLoudPoppingAction I don't know how many of us just added you, but it says your friends list is full.

You could delete some player on your list so people can add you for the research task if you like.

I will say I had a few problems with signal dropping out today, but it was annoying rather than catastrophic.

ISaySteadyOn · 05/08/2023 13:40

So could someone tell a GoFest first timer what to expect tomorrow? I only bought an afternoon ticket if that helps to know.

Your ticket still gives you city access all morning so you can play and raid (and get some rayquaza mega energy plus get into the research tasks - whatever is important to you!) before you go to the park and the spawns are the same.

There are Collection Challenges for the four different areas of the park, plus a couple of research tasks for each which are just spinning pokestops and taking a photo of a pokémon you catch in each zone. Lots of things to do, but it's no different to playing normally just on a larger scale .

There are water stations for filling bottles, food stalls, plenty of toilets and rest areas where you can sit under a big gazebo and eat/have a rest (or try to get out of the rain in the case of those of us who went today), a merchandising tent which I didn't go in and various other bits and bobs. It's all very straightforward and the only I would emphasise again is wear comfortable shoes or boots - I've done 22,000 steps today even including the time spent hiding under trees trying not to get my phone soaked 😂

Your forecast is better tomorrow too!

@Purpletoes the raid task is with your buddy, yes. I tucked mine in at the end of a battle party and that was enough.

Purpletoes · 05/08/2023 18:05

@behindanothername raid with buddy do they mean your pokemon buddy?

Looking forward to tomorrow and the weather is looking better. Not sure where we will go in the morning as we have concert tonight as well but will be in the park for the afternoon

@CantStandMeow Hi I was maybe on the Discord then too, then I stopped playing as seriously for a while.

Do you have me as a friend? Kathwithcats x
