Hello you lovely lot. Nowt new today, but at least I caught a couple of Squirtles and have enough candy to get Wartortle, so that's 4 to add to my Pokedex when I do a Lucky Egg mass evolve.

Can I ask what are people saving for second generation.

I am saving zubat
Evve
and slowpoke candy.

BumWad · 22/11/2016 22:28

Ive had a fun few days!

New ones I have caught are a Scyther, Wigglytuff and Growlithe. Looking forward to doing a mass evolve session tomorrow with the double XP should have a few more newbies and get up to level 25.

I keep getting kicked out of gyms here but Im now so very determined to keep at them. They are changing hands every day. I have just been out to the local park in the dark and rain to get my gym back Blush it is ridiculous right?

Another thing I have discovered is that our local village park is an Onix nest! Shock they are an absolute bugger to catch though, I threw around 10+ balls at a high CP one and still didn't catch it. It's a shame I'm working the next few days won't be able to visit said park until the weekend!

A lot of my Pokemon are half dead as I have run out of potions so ended up using some lower CP ones for battling - my Golbat was sensational! It just shows the higher CP aren't necessarily the greatest.

BumWad · 22/11/2016 22:30

Starlight I'm saving:

Eevee
Zubat
Slowpoke
Horsea
Onix
Scyther (only hatched one)
Oddish
Poliwag

Could that cp rebalance be responsible for all of my dead pokemon to be alive again? I still had 40 to revive yesterday, and today they were all cured.

Also, am I the only one who think that Raichu's brick shitting attack is the cutest?

CartwheelGirl · 22/11/2016 22:50

Shellder, the ones with CP lowered will end up stronger, once you power them up again (due to better HP:CP ratio) - double stardust event will be very useful.

CartwheelGirl · 22/11/2016 22:50

Dillite2 - yes it is, all HP went back to max with this update.

MuddlingMackem · 22/11/2016 22:53

I've got about half a dozen pokemon to evolve and I was going to hang fire until I had enough to use a lucky egg. However, unless I get very lucky with catching stuff, that could take months as I'll have to buddy them in turn for candy, so I'm thinking I'll take advantage of the double XP event and do them all during it. Then I can just plod my way though for all of the others however long it takes before using a lucky egg.

Shellder · 22/11/2016 22:56

Thank you CartwheelGirl I'll give my Victreebell some love tomorrow Grin

Dillite2 · 22/11/2016 22:59

Oh wow, my 600-isc cp Kadabra is now 1006cp, and my 364cp Chansey is not 900-something. Several of my pokemon are stronger now. Dewgongs have been downgraded to 900cp though.

tumpymummy · 22/11/2016 23:01

enid I've been having the same problem as you since yesterday too. Game loads up but there are no gyms or pokestops and often no Pokemon in sightings. Only way I have been able to get it to work properly is to close down app then restart it, but have had to do that 3 times sometimes which is very annoying and slow, and no good when out walking past stops that I have had to miss out.

tumpymummy · 22/11/2016 23:03

Louey what's a hard reset? Maybe I need to do that too? I have an iPhone.

tumpymummy · 22/11/2016 23:05

dillite that's a billy bonus about all your dead Pokemon being revived. Very good timing for you!

BumWad · 22/11/2016 23:05

I have also had that problem Enid and tumpy.

BumWad · 22/11/2016 23:05

Why have my dead Pokemon not been fully revived?! Sad

JellyWitch · 22/11/2016 23:15

Powering up revivies Pokemon so it would make sense that the CP boost did that.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 22/11/2016 23:34

I'm saving the same as bum for gen 2 but porygon and chansey too. For porygon 2 and blissey.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 22/11/2016 23:44

Just seen someone claim to catch ditto. Im suspicious

BumWad · 22/11/2016 23:52

So do we think ditto will be released during the thanksgiving special?

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 22/11/2016 23:56

It's here. Lots of reports

BumWad · 23/11/2016 00:42

Exciting!

MessezFaire · 23/11/2016 04:34

So I told DH that ditto had been caught and lo and behold he's fucking caught one. It was from the same pidgey that escaped me.

Fucker.

But I can confirm it's real. Catch all vermin because they may change into a ditto.

I've been Much More Ill Than Usual the last few weeks, but I've managed to get my Pokédex up to 131 & have reached Level 26.

Absolutely gutted IWM has lost its Bulbasaur spawn. I was going to try to get there tomorrow. Which might have been a bit ambitious, but if I could make it to town, the walking's important when I've lost so much muscle [tone] & have to be careful about my bonemass - & I have enough journeys on my taxicard that if I managed to tire myself out I could still get home safely... A couple of stints there (one VERY brief, at the end of a spawn, The Day I Did Not Go To Hospital But The Nice Paramedics Took Me To The Shops So I Could Get A Powerpack For My Phone Instead...) got me a good way towards the 125 candy I need...

I only need to catch one more Squirtle & then I can evolve one of my Wartortles. The park at the top of my road's had a few Wartortles spawn recently, so I'm hoping I might manage to catch one with a higher CP to evolve...

The loss of the Blackheath Charmanders is a source of Woe to me. It wasn't BRILLIANT, but it got me enough over several sessions to evolve a Charizard. Am starting to think I will never get beyond that though.

Am thinking of maybe paying a trip to Crystal Palace once I'm better (well, as well as I get during the winter...) to try to hunt for some Machops. Well, unless that spawn's changed now too! And see if I have any luck with Destiny/Dragonair - apparently they show up there quite often...

I'm buddying one of my Kabuto at the moment as both hatched, never seen one anywhere - I need 10 candies though & they're a 5km/candy monster, so it will be a LONG walk. And Sod's Law says I'll get to 40.99km & hatch another with 10 candy, of course...

jennielou75 · 23/11/2016 06:54

I just caught a 30 cp pidgey and it turned into a ditto!

Cooroo · 23/11/2016 07:02

Woke up at 6. Showered. Idly checked the gyms in reach - one is grey! A busily contested gym had been left unoccupied over night! Threw on clothes and dashed out unbreakfasted to pop my Magmar in. Won't last long but how could I ignore that! Then caught a Pidgey that turned out to be... a Pidgey. Oh well, double XP and Stardust makes even that worthwhile.
