Routine Sparkles Pokémon Go

Hi team, this is Kathwithcats, (SoulofanAggron) I have some of you as Friends, was on the Discord for a bit. Didn't play very seriously for a while, but am getting back into it. What's this Routes thing?

So I was rather tipsy a few nights ago and was moaning to DH about the lack of routes around me. We have a pretty active PoGo messenger chat that grew out of a FB group still and people were discussing routes in there so I just asked if someone could do an easy one for me through our town centre where I have lots of benches I can sit on when I'm struggling with my pain levels.

One of the lovely guys in the group did one from the abbey in our town down to the sea, it's not far at all but so many benches for me to rest on and it got approved as soon as he submitted it.

I've only been able to walk it once so far but it's perfect for me, I'm lucky to have such an amazing local group.

I went back to Waterloo today and the two routes available last week has increased to ten this week, so they're obviously getting through the approvals at a decent rate. The statistics don't seem to be updating yet though.

@SockQueen A couple have gone live near me today so more are popping up. Hopefully you'll have some nearby soon. 🤞🏻

@KevinAndHerKits Thanks that’s really helpful to know re the routes. I have spare tropius, chatot, tauros, kangaskhan too if you need any of those.
I’m after an unown z and unown ? so will be holding out to trade those. Not sure if they’re giving us extra daily trades during the event. They didn’t when we went to Montreal which was a shame as we’d taken extra uk regionals to trade.

This is my PoGo name so if we're friends then you'll know, but I'll PM you my number as well (not going to put it on the thread because I have a huge number of friends and am rationing new ones).

One of my routes is in central Brixton - starting at David Bowie. I haven't been to Brockwell Park for a couple of weeks but I read online that there are a couple of routes there and have been for a week - I assume that Niantic deliberately prioritised them.

I'd love to trade some scatterbugs for my missing regions. Hope your issues sort themselves out and you make it - it should be a great weekend. I've got visitors unfortunately so will have to ration my pogo.

@KevinAndHerKits how local are you? Can you confirm if there are any routes near or in the event park or around Brixton?

If I make it (bit iffy at the moment) I’ll be staying in the area from Thursday afternoon to Saturday lunchtime ish. My ticket is Friday morning and extra day on Saturday for Greater London. If you’re very local I’m happy to trade if you want to meet up and need any regionals I have spares or scatterbugs which I have spares for all regions. Are we pogo friends ?

My DSis is very inconveniently having my niece christened on GoFest weekend, so we won't be able to join any of it.

Also no routes near either my home or work.

My 2 routes which I submitted last weekend have been reviewed and gone live! Very excited.

Since they have only just been approved no one has actually walked them yet, and I've got a busy day tomorrows so don't really have time - but I think I might have to get up early and do the nearest one first thing.

New thread yay! Thank you @ISaySteadyOn

Saturday afternoon for me too; I'm planning to walk down and play the City part on the way 😀

Thanks for the new thread @ISaySteadyOn

There's currently one route near me which I've walked 3 separate times, with no luck finding a cell. Hopefully more will come once they are approved.

I'm at go fest on Saturday afternoon.

Thanks for the new thread. I'll also be at Go Fest because I live locally, but on Sunday afternoon, unlike most of the MN players.

Just checking in to the new thread. I sadly leave this beautiful Marine location tomorrow but I hope its helped some of you our with Vivillons
