I hatched a Snorlax from a 10k egg this morning, I was so excited, and then another bloody Jynx this evening, I have hopes for a Lapras from the third one that's hatching.

Dratini spawned twice by the pokestop by the office today so hoping that continues next week.

Had some time in Newcastle, on my own, today, before a meeting. The male Nidoran are back, after nearly a month of barely seeing one, I had loads in sightings and caught 4 of them. Also caught a massive rhyhorn - they'd been absent since the male nidoran disappeared, too. An only one Clefairy. Still lots of Krabbies, though.

And, just as I'm ready to evolve a primape, I turn my phone on, after eating a messy (and delicious!) salad, in Pret and spot a Primape waiting outside for me. I exercise the 3 ball rule and caught it second shot - with one of the staff watching!

I want to know where's my Snorlax. I'm flipping well nearly on level 28 and I still haven't even seen a Snorlax Angry Angry

I caught a wild archine today (my first). It's a bit rubbish and it's not a Snorlax but it's lovely never the less.

FrogTime · 09/09/2016 21:48

Evening!

Only good thing today was an electabuzz and machamp shadow and I caught the last voltorb needed for electrode. Other than that a load of rubbish Sad
Very close to level 20 though so will be saving my lucky egg for when I've caught loooooads of pidgeys for mass evolve.

I find myself irritated that I can't catch enough of the middle ground ones to evolve quick enough or just very impatient like horsea, clefairy, geodude, and I haven't seen a magikarp in weeks

Tea - it depends what level you are. But generally I don't think it's worth powering anything up until you're over level 25. You catch higher cp ones as you go up. Otherwise, it's a waste of stardust.

I finally did it. Level 28. Need 300k XP for 29. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

I hatched a tangela today, again when I was somewhere I don't usually go so I still like that theory. Had a lucky egg going at the time so got some good points and did some evolves but still so many points needed to get to level 24

FlappyFish I'm nearly at level 28 and have a trip to big city today so should get some good XP. I'm curious how much Pokemon and item storage you have. I've upgraded my storage so that I can store 300 Pokemon and 500 items but I'm wondering if I should upgrade it further. I've got 280 pokecoins but am not holding any gyms at the moment. Sad I have lucky eggs but no incense .... Mmm, I can't decide. 🤔

I'm overthinking this aren't I 😂

reddA · 10/09/2016 11:12

I'm level 28 too! Hard going now though, 137 in my Pokedex, would have been 138 if a stupid Cubone had stayed in the ball. I've got 300 for both storage, just have to clear out often. Here are my top pokemon

FlappyFish · 10/09/2016 12:16

Not overthinking it at all!

I have storage for 350 Pokemon and 450 items. I am quite ruthless with the Pokemon though and use most of the space for evolving. I rarely hit the top of items, but I delete out all the tiny potions and ditch a lot of revives. Even with a lot of gym battling I only really use 20 a day at most he beat thigh is I can now power up my top ones again, as I'd reached the top of the level. I can never have enough stardust though.

FlappyFish · 10/09/2016 12:21

I really should preview...the best thing!

ABunchOfFuckingPidgeys · 10/09/2016 14:48

PokemonGo I have me pokemon storage at 350 and my pokebag at 500.

I wasn't planning on ever upgrading my Pokemon bag and only did so when I was on holiday and went to catch a pinsir but was told my Pokemon bag was full. I upgraded another time while on holiday for same reason as there was so much stuff spawning that my bag filled so quickly and I hadn't had the time to go through everything and see what I wanted to delete because I was either spinning pokestops or catching something.

I upgraded my Pokeball bag before I went away as I'd thought I'd be always full as the place was jam packed with pokestops, in reality the few balls I'd get from one stop were spent by the time I got to another on catching whatever had appeared. Other then my very first night there never came close to filling it while on holiday and when at home 450 is enough for me as I can only take one gym so don't need loads of potions etc.

I had my incense, lure and egg from hitting 25 and as all the lures that were running where amazing I set mine off, and got pidgeys and fucking rats. I still have my egg and incense as I want to make use of that 300 Pokemon storage now I'm home and I'm trying to fill it with pidgeys to evolve.

You could always just hang in to your coins and if you find yourself having to delete stuff often then upgrade it when away, if your bag doesn't get full you could use the coins for an incense to try in a new place. I wish I'd held off upgrading my the Pokeball bag until a stop told me it's full as I'd never have needed to upgrade :)

I'm 60k through the 200k needed to hit level 27, it's taken a about two weeks for me to get quarter of the way through so I'm not planning to hit 30 any time on I'm just plodding along.

Lilaclily · 10/09/2016 14:59

Idrinkandiknowstuff Envy Poole you say ? Wink

LunaLoveg00d · 10/09/2016 15:05

After saying on Thursday I'd never seen a Porygon, guess what son caught as I was driving him home last night?

So I'd just like to state that I haven't seen a Snorlax, Lapras, Pikachu, Charizard, Blastoise or Dragonair either.

FrogTime · 10/09/2016 16:01

I haven't any of those except blastoise either luna Sad

Saw a Pikachu show up on nearby today but DD was tired from our long adventurous day and didn't want to go hunt for it :(

JellyWitch · 10/09/2016 16:37

Mass evolution session here and I now have a 1550 CP 91 IV Poliwrath. Happy days. Levelled up to 23 too. And my Hypno army is now in double figures (up to P in the alphabet!).

After way too much thought I decided to increase my item storage ....

.....but I accidentally increased my Pokemon storage instead ShockSad. I never run out of Pokemon storage so that was a big fat waste of 200 hard earned pokecoins

I've 80 pokecoins now so I guess I'll have to start saving again.

FlappyFish · 10/09/2016 19:38

Yay PokemonGo, the level 28 club rocks. 29 will take a few weeks... 😂

PokemonGo · 10/09/2016 19:50
