Hmm, I only really need to go to the post office today, so I think I'll go to the one in town and have a walk around Mowbray Park. I don't need Poliwags, but the kids still need enough candies for a Poliwrath each so might as well get some for them.

I went into town yesterday and finally got my first Pikachu!

I've struggled to play in the last 10 days as I've been hit by a flu bug and had very limited energy.

Am I imagining it or does that woman on the loading screen have a slightly more normal body shape now?

Icouldbeknitting · 21/12/2016 09:31

The update that changed daylight hours to reflect the trainer's location also changed the loading screen. The pokeball with the lights on has changed and the trainer looks less like a pole dancer.

Icouldbeknitting · 21/12/2016 09:32

The update is also supposed to stop the repeated buzzing on Android but as I haven't been out of the house yet I wouldn't know.

WeedlesHatOfDisappointment · 21/12/2016 09:47

dame you're right!

DameDeDoubtance · 21/12/2016 09:54

Well, thank fuck for that. Bugged me every time I logged on.

Natsku · 21/12/2016 09:59

That woman bugged me too!

I have 5 festive Pikachus now Grin

Here is my Pokeupdate. Yesterday i hatched a 10km egg - a Chansey which is okay but i already have one. A 2km egg hatched today and it was a bloody weedle. On a positive note i managed to catch another Dratini so i have ben able to evolve my Drangonair into Dragonite. I have now got Kabuto as my buddy. Only 40 candies required to evolve...Shock

I now have 42 on my Pokedex. I will get my Kabutops eventually but the Aerodactyl still eludes me.

I wish they would release more Pokemon into the wild for catching. I am a bit bored now.

I really want an event, double xp, candy or lower walking distance. they are really missing a trick as it got so many people out and about over Halloween.

Dillite2 · 21/12/2016 11:13

I never cared for the day/ night mode so the update means nothing to me. It's good that the buzzing has stopped though.

We are at Vianden in the middle of nowhere really today and there are so many pokemon! And we are all out of balls!

Been to the docs to pick up a prescription this morning and whilst waiting took down a yellow gym. Had time to build it up to level 4 before I left and as I walked away 2 fellow mystics took up the spots. With any luck I'll hold it more than ten mins!

Hatched a 5km egg and it was a krabby Angry

Got 2 cooking now so we'll see!

CantstandmLMs · 21/12/2016 11:46

If an event starts today I may actually leave the house, as it is I can't be arsed Confused

Shortened buddy distance will get me zooming about! Come on!

Took me about 3 seconds QueenLiz! Grin

Hatched a 10km egg today and got a Smoochum, my first new Pokemon! Smug face.

My 10k egg hatched and Oh Em Effing Gee A it's only a Lapras! Like ZebraOwl I'm looking forward to seeing it spinning around on top of a gym, but without her eloquent exuberance. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited. She just articulates it better than I do.

I haven't had the update yet, my phone still buzzes every few seconds but no Pokemon appear. It's really fucking annoying.

I am in Swindon and am shocked by the lack of pokestops. I stocked up on balls before I left London but now I have no eggs!

BumWad · 21/12/2016 20:37

Finally have enough candies to evolve my Ivysaur but will wait until I do another lucky egg session

DameDeDoubtance · 21/12/2016 20:40

The update is in the Play store if your an Android user Doctor. I am so pleased to have got rid of the buzz and I really like the real life day/night update. I hated it when the screen was so bright and it was pitch black outside or vice versa. Just hoping some incentive is announced soon.

I beat up a low cp Chancey and took over a gym, which felt all kids of wrong.

Also put a lure on but all it attracted was what was local anyway, I caught 6 Magnamites and 1 Voltorb in the half hour.

CantstandmLMs · 21/12/2016 21:06

Makes you wonder if there's any point in lures and incense these days.
