Ah must be a glitch then if its not just me, will check that thread out Songbird

I was really excited to find this, just hanging around on the corner from my house, but look at his CP! Apart from a 10CP sandshrew he's the lowest thing I have.

Posted this on the other thread so will post here too :)

If you have a jail broken I device or rooted android there's a good chance the next update won't let you play at all.

I've done a mass evolve today, figuring if I'm going to be stopped from playing as my phone is rooted then I want to use everything I have.

After a full hour of constant evolving I've gone from 60k to 134k of the 200k needed to get to level 27. The animations are frustrating as I'd have been able to evolve double what I did if I could skip them.

I now have ninetails, golem and alakazam taking my pokedex to seen/caught 132.

My best raticate is now 900cp, previous was 800cp. Had enough female nidoran candy to do a whole evolution series so have a 97.8 perfect nidoqueen at 1557 cp and about 100 candy left for powering her up. Thanks to all the extra candy from my holidays I also evolved a few rapidashes, another golduck, another dodrio that all had IVs over 90.

Annoyingly I was powering my better Vulpix up and pressed evolve without realising it had gone to the shitty one. My ninetails is still decent at 1408 cp but it would have been much higher if they didn't switch as I powered up...

I have two 10k eggs incubating but don't feel as motivated to go walk them off as I did a few weeks ago. It's not so much that new things are harder to get, it's that there's no variety of the duplicates and it's always the same half a dozen things spawning. Benidorm has spoilt me :)

ABunchOfFuckingPidgeys · 11/09/2016 21:47

You also get ultra balls level 20 irrc. 25 you get max potions and one lure,egg and incubater but it takes a longgg time to get there from 20.

PickAChew · 11/09/2016 21:52

Just noticed the threads I'm on issue - on my laptop, I scrolled down a long way - and there they were! Below all the shite at the side.

PickAChew · 11/09/2016 21:53

That Kadabra is even better than my CP25 Scyther :o

PickAChew · 11/09/2016 21:56

Get yourself over to Seaham, Pidgey. We're off there again, earlier in the day, this time, next weekend.

It's crawling, though! (and full of kids all doing the same thing on their scooters!)

LunaLoveg00d · 11/09/2016 22:50

Good day today. I had to run my daughter and her friend into town (5 miles) and then pick them up later, so daughter Pokemon-ed on the way there and my 8 year old on hte way back and caught LOADS of the usual pidgeys, rattatas and spearows, but also a few more interesting Pokemon. Caught enough Squirtles to evolve into a Wartortle, and enough Meowths to get a Persian, both new for me.

Cooroo · 11/09/2016 22:51

Had a fabulous weekend in Yorkshire Dales but NO opportunity to hunt Pokemon. Missed it. Sad

MakeMyWineADouble · 11/09/2016 23:20

Yeah the Pokemon and hospital thing is a myth I'm afraid. Not too bad a day here got enough candy for poliwrath and nidoking plus a few others hatched by second snorlax definitely getting lots of repetition from hatched no matter what I do Confused

reddA · 11/09/2016 23:21

On 138 caught now and just need one Grimer to evolve him, 21 lines on Pokemon Bingo Blush

DS had a really crappy day though - he needs one more Pikachu to evolve so we went to a place where I've seen one before, we found 3 throughout the day and all of them 'poofed' :(

Oh - and just a warning, don't go pokemon hunting in a van as you may get pulled over by the police on suspicion of trying to abduct children! Blush

dillite · 11/09/2016 23:46

Here are my top guys- probably could be better but dd can not wait long enough to make them stronger to evolve them, so she just evolves everything she can as soon as there's enough candy.

We went to Greenwich today which was a massive disappointment in terms of stops and pokemon. I feel stupid having wasted my lure, incense and the lucky egg only to catch 15 pokemon in 30 minutes.

On the bright side, our 2km egg hatched us a Porigon.

I have also noticed that I no longer get any pokemon when walking my usual route to work- there used to be one or two that would pop up, but now I get nothing.

dillite · 11/09/2016 23:49

I am caught 90 seen 96- I seem to get a lot of poofers, like the 900cp scyther a few days ago.

MakeMyWineADouble · 11/09/2016 23:54

Is there any word when the update is conning to the uk??

PokemonGo · 12/09/2016 02:28

DS and I were just on our way to bed when we saw a Laura's on our nearby. I'd hatched one from an egg but DS didn't have one.

So we jump in the car and track him down. It only took 5 mins. I'm not sure what the Nieghbours would make of us taking a wee drive at two o'clock in the morning Blush

DS is about to go back to Uni so I'll have to go on my own. That will look even more suspicious Confused

He wasn't a high CP Lara's but he gave me precious candy to evolve my other one which was already high and has great stats ....

FairyAccess · 12/09/2016 02:30

Lapras not Laura's or Lara's Grin

Lilaclily · 12/09/2016 06:31

We've held a gym all night with a 1373 Tentacruel , first time we've held one!

reddA · 12/09/2016 09:04

Woke up and checked the time on my phone - 6am ffs, just about to turn over and noticed a nearby Pikachu! After yesterdays disappointment for DS I couldn't ignore it so jumped in the car and found it - it stayed in the ball!! Woohoo - he was chuffed when he got up, now he can evolve tonight.

Forgot to say, I caught a Gyarados yesterday too, first one i've seen in the wild, so that's 7 now.

So I need a venusaur, Machamp, Muk, Aerodactyl and the 3 regionals. Looking forward to the update.

Is anyone saving any candy for Gen 2?

FlappyFish · 12/09/2016 09:45

Argh, I want the buddy update.

129 now. I have Muk. That is one ugly Pokemon!

user1471441196 · 12/09/2016 11:57

red I have the world's most feeble machamp as he appeared randomly one day. And I only seem to hatch aerodaxtyl. Typical! I'm amazed you've got so many! I'm at 103 but have two ready to evolve (seel and slowpoke) and two one catch away (gloom to vileplume, eggscute) and sandshrew two catches away. Nidorina and Nidoran are close, as are Jigglypuff, Pikachu and Abra. Hoping I get some new ones soon!

EnidButton · 12/09/2016 13:22

Went on a pokestop collecting journey yesterday but didn't see one single Pokemon! There's usually lots around. Very strange. Restocked on balls and got a couple of eggs. No 10km ones still.

SpotOfWeather · 12/09/2016 13:44

My top guys.

Caught a Snorlax recently. Both me and hubby saw it initially. I caught him - he was CP 49 (shock, horror) whereas hubby's was CP 1900!!!

I'm level 21, nearly 22. I find it a bit boring actually at this point, with all the armies of pidgeys and weedles everywhere.

But it's great fun with kids!

Lilaclily · 12/09/2016 14:46

I can't an Ivysaur just now which is new to me Smile

Lilaclily · 12/09/2016 14:47

caught

Thingywhatsit · 12/09/2016 14:55

Ooooh can I join in? I got 10 lines, 115 in my pokedex and just turned level 24.

Not been out hunting since Saturday, but if ds does his homework we might get an hour in at our local lure pokestops later... Still waiting for my snorlax.......
