I'm a couple of thousand XP from level 20. Once there I might just grind up all the rubbish for candies and evolve the best ones.

I fought my way into four new gyms tonight so holding 6. Went to buy an incense and it fucking glitched. I have four of the fuckers now. Thankfully I have three boat trips this week so should help then but I'm raging at the waste! I wanted an incubator.

Still waiting for level 28. Too busy at work!

Cashed out the same 7 gyms again. People must be not playing as much as I'm sure they wouldn't have lasted this long before.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 19/10/2016 11:52

I'd lost 3 of my 6 by morning so it's still being played here pokemongo!

I caught a Bulbasaur yesterday. May go back and see if it is a reliable site or a one off.

nuttelladreams · 19/10/2016 13:24

I've managed to get into another one so cashed in on 4. Let's see how long that lasts.

On other news I've only got 3 dead ones. Yay.

QueenLizIII · 19/10/2016 13:54

I'll never buy incense again after a friend used it on hers and i didnt to see what happened. For the half hour she got 2 more than i did. I got all the same with no incense.

That's the only way I can restock lots....by being on a bus and hitting all the stops.

Caught a Bulbasaur yesterday and hatched one today. Not too bad.

Eggecute is my buddy now. Look like I am walking around with a box of angry eggs.

Have an evolve session planned later today and I have two newbies to do.

nuttelladreams · 19/10/2016 16:59

Oh really tea? Where did you see that?

If it happens it will probably kill the bit of enjoyment I have left.

Exciting queen - what new ones will you get? How many have you got now?

I've figured out I only have 12 possibles to catch as apparently there are 142 to be had in the U.K. I don't think I will ever get them!

QueenLizIII · 19/10/2016 17:03

Can evolve Sandshrew and Nidorino.

I have 115 when evolves done.

Longtimelurker you wouldn't happen to live in the Southwest do you? The mention of a ferry and a charmander nest makes me think we might live in the same city?!

MagikarpetRide · 19/10/2016 17:22

That's really irritating tea. My woman often gets lost of her own accord, especially in shopping centres and I'm always having to say i'm a passenger to get rid of the screen. Not to mention the rare times I am in a car that fly by pokestopping is fun

Natsku · 19/10/2016 17:29

I get the car warning far too often when just sitting still, that would completely fuck the game up.

Can't find a decent male Nidoran anywhere, got enough candy to evolve all the way to Nidoking but all the ones I find won't make much headway in battle, gah!

QueenLizIII · 19/10/2016 17:41

Just got a Charmander from a 2k egg.

Makes a change from the usual vermin.

JellyWitch · 19/10/2016 17:41

I'm always being told I'm in the car - just means the GPS is flipping out. Would end disabled a lot, particularly in more rural areas. So that would be beyond annoying.

I have about 300 poke balls in my bag at the moment and am desperately short of potions and revives ahead of a gym attach planned for tomorrow. Need to go hunting somewhere with the kids to use the balls up!!

MagikarpetRide · 19/10/2016 17:54

Just suddenly felt the need to point out that when I say I'm in a car I am always a passenger Blush. Not sure why I feel I need to clarify that though!

Cooroo · 19/10/2016 17:57

Ready for lucky egg evolution session - 75 including Bulbasaur, 3 Eevees and Squirtle and 23 Pidgeys! Is it worth going to a Pokestop or can I sit on the sofa in comfort?

EnidButton · 19/10/2016 18:44

Well that update will put a complete stop to me playing then. Sad

I'm too disabled to walk very far so whilst I can walk, I can't walk the distances needed, so lovely patient DH goes the long way round with me in the passenger seat so I can get to pokestops and catch something other than Pidgeys and ratatas.

I know the point of the game is to walk but it felt nice to be able to join in like I was able bodied again.

Wonder if skipping the update will stop it happening? I feel quite sad about it Blush Something else I can't do anymore.

QueenLizIII · 19/10/2016 18:51

My new toys
A bit disappointing.

I ran out just as I evolved my last one. Bugger.

This car thing will be rather annoying.
Spent the afternoon in London on a course which was right by a pokestop. Finally managed to heal all my Pokemon and get a few potions and balls. Def need to up my storage to stop throwing away stuff.

My two next ones will probably be nidoking (76 candy) and weepinbell (64) and that will bring me to 132.

The incubator I got with coins got me a psyduck, a drowzee and an ekans. Seriously. Why did I bother?

PokemonGo · 19/10/2016 19:07

Enid. Would your DH be willing to drive you slowly. The DC and I did super slow drives around town in the middle of the night over the summer. It was great fun although we were surprised we didn't get stopped by the police.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 19/10/2016 19:08

tummy no, Scotland!
Went to the nest. Starter with one candy. Look!
