He was gone. Sigh. But added a Sandshrew to my Pokedex as a compensation. The moon was full, I may be mad. Storming the silent streets, just me and the bin lorries!

jennielou75 · 14/12/2016 07:17

My pokedex is now up to 171 so there are a few new ones there.

JellyWitch · 14/12/2016 07:19

Got my pikachu! Now to see what newbies are in London gyms...

Cooroo · 14/12/2016 07:48

Stopped to buy bread and got my Pikachu! Yay! Also hatched my first Doduo from a 5km egg so very happy.

Dillite2 · 14/12/2016 08:11

I got another Pikachu! My first catch of the day.

NamelessEnsign · 14/12/2016 08:26

I caught a Santachu and my first Scyther yesterday - I have had more new wild Pokemon this week than in the last month or two put together!

For the first time ever I cashed out for a second day in a row yesterday. I was booted out a bit later though!

This is how my nearby screen looks like at the moment. Never seen this before. Is that normal?

That is one weird screen igneo :o It looks a bit like you're being trolled by the Easter Bunny!

The bunny isn't on the screen DoctorTwo it must have somehow appeared when I uploaded it and I have no idea why and how. The red question marks where usually a picture of the pokestop is are still there. I might try restarting the application and see if it fixes it.

soupforbrains · 14/12/2016 10:39

I've had that one igneo. It's usually when my phone connects to some crappy public wifi and the connection is too slow for the app to download the pokestop images.

LBOCS2 · 14/12/2016 11:03

Zebra, as it's sunny I'm taking the DC there today - not to get my charizard at all, you understand, but because it's our 15th closest park.

I'll let you know if it's still swarming...

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 14/12/2016 11:21

8 new available, including Pikachu with the hat. I've not hatched a single babu!

BumWad · 14/12/2016 15:13

Today I have hatched:
A spearow
A paras
A shellder

Angry
QueenLizIII · 14/12/2016 15:16

Caught a Hat Pikachu (number 4) and a Kabuto. Saw another Kabuto but it ran away.

QueenLizIII · 14/12/2016 15:17

My pokedex hasnt updated. Opened and closed a few times.

spiderlight · 14/12/2016 15:22

I want a Pikachu with a hat!!! stamps foot Had one in sightings for abut a nanosecond yesterday but not a sniff of one apart from that.

QueenLizIII · 14/12/2016 15:26

I hatched two Abras the other day. Angry

Igneococcus · 14/12/2016 15:41

My screen is back to normal now soupforbrains must have been a glitch of some sort while I was driving to work.
Caught a second Santachu and I'm hatching a 2 km egg soon which I only got today. I'm so hoping it's a baby pokemon.
My pokedex hasn't updated yet either, does it possibly only do that once you get one of the new ones?

QueenLizIII · 14/12/2016 15:44

Hatted Pikachu is a new one though? I have 4 and it hasn't updated.

Igneococcus · 14/12/2016 15:57

Yes, but it goes into the same place as the Pikachu without the hat, whereas the new ones will need their own space.

DameDeDoubtance · 14/12/2016 16:07

I got him today! Hurrah, hurrah and huzzah!!!! I text dd who told her class and apparently their was whooping.

I'm temped to buy some incubators just to clear out my old eggs.

Icouldbeknitting · 14/12/2016 16:27

I am waiting to see if there's a further Christmas thing next week before I slam incubators on everything. (Yes, I spend money. Don't judge me, it makes me walk miles and is cheaper than Slimming World) I will spit teeth if I hatch all the eggs now and then find that I would have been better waiting a week. I can wait, the babies will still be there in 2017.

LBOCS2 · 14/12/2016 17:03

I spend money on mine all the time knitting. If there are a lot of Pokémon around then you need plenty of balls and the gyms around here are strong so take a lot of time to bring down - time I don't have.

I had a successful trip to the park and caught 6 charmander and three squirtle, amongst many other Pokémon (including three more Santachu). Hatched two eggs. Bloody spearow and ekans. Bum. Not what I wanted but at least now I'm clearing space for eggs with (hopefully) better contents.

I'm also saving my transfers in the hope that there's an event which will double them up, as that would be very helpful!

Icouldbeknitting · 14/12/2016 17:24

Yes, I'm turning my catches into candy and waiting longer than I would to use a lucky egg and evolve them all. I can wait another week to see whether this is it or whether there's something else up Niantic's sleeve. It's a long way to L30 and I need all the help I can get.

DoctorTwo · 14/12/2016 17:50

I had 2x Porygon and 2x Pikachu run away today, all within half an hour. The fuckers. Angry My only 2k egg hatched as a fucking Weedle but my 5k egg was a Sandshrew, my second ever. It brought 41 candies with it so I'm happy. Then a Nidoqueen and Koffing spawned next to each other and I caught them both.

I'm now buddying Scyther, and when it reaches 50 candies I'll swap to Sandshrew and hop Lucky Egg evolves count as quadruple during the Xmas event. That way I might power through Level 25 before New Year.
