Finally some news! So, incubators and more of the Pokemon I rarely see, but not double XP, is that right? I really want to evolve loads of stuff!

spiderlight · 23/12/2016 18:26

DS caught a Snorlax and mine fled. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

But I did just evolve a Santa Raichu so that's kind of made up for it. A bit. Nearly.

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 23/12/2016 18:26

new announcement

One single use incubator on the first spin of the day
Increase in eggs with new pokemon in them from Xmas day
Increase in Kanto region pokemon from 30th (Bulbasaur, charmander, squirtle and evolves)

Starlight2345 · 23/12/2016 18:28

No double xp, or reduction on walking which I was hoping on..

Icouldbeknitting · 23/12/2016 18:32

I will follow the etiquette for Christmas gifts which is to exclaim "it is exactly what I wanted, how did you know?" and tomorrow I'll start shifting the 37 Weedles and 20 odd Pidgeys out of the way. I am resigned to walking this Kabuto forever.

HalleLouja · 23/12/2016 18:34

I don't think I have posted on this before. But my name is Halle and I too may be addicted to Pokémon and have been googling to find out what the Xmas game was going to be.

tumpymummy · 23/12/2016 18:44

Is it wrong to be a little bit excited about the christmas event! I just need bulbasaur, so that will hopefully save me walking 150km! (I do also need tangela and polygon but can only hatch those) Although with family around Im a bit worried about how I am going to find an excuse to do all that egg walking with the free incubators.

BumWad · 23/12/2016 18:47

I'm excited too! Need a Charizard and Blastoise. Will be good getting an incubator at Pokestops too

QueenLizIII · 23/12/2016 19:02

Cool could do with more incubators.

Natsku · 23/12/2016 19:23

Well as much as it sucks not having less distance needed or double candy/xp/stardust, it will be nice to get those incubators as I haven't had extra ones for a while, really want to hatch some of the babies!

QueenLizIII · 23/12/2016 20:21

These are my best pokeys.

snitcheryoo · 23/12/2016 20:36

Well, this evening I'm within spitting distance of L25, just need a measly 13k which I WILL get before bedtime Smile . I've evolved everything I've got and been catching every single vermin that popped up. Waiting for the kids film to finish and put them away then me and the dog are going to take a lovely long walk to a gym or two, catching pidgeys and rats along the way.
The free incubator event will come in handy too.

SomedayMyPrinceWillCome · 23/12/2016 22:07

So what's happening with Gen 2 Pokémon? I've got a bit confused with all this Christmas event talk. Are Gen 2 Pokémon out there & its just I haven't seen any or are they still a rumour at the moment?

LongtimeLurkerNowPokemonHunter · 23/12/2016 22:17

Prince just the gen 2 babies from eggs

TheOtherGalen · 23/12/2016 22:22

Just got back from a three mile walk and I only got 2.2k distance on my eggs! That is so WRONG! Has it gotten significantly worse over the past six weeks or so? I don't remember it being so far off.

Being rural sucks! (Well, for Pokemon GO anyhow. Otherwise I like it a lot!)

Clearly I need to figure out a different walking route. One that takes me in a perfectly straight line away from my house. Then I'll need to stand at the end for a few minutes to make sure it registers before turning around and trudging back, ha.

DameDeDoubtance · 23/12/2016 22:53

These are my badboys. Not nearly as bad as the above but I luffs 'em Grin

Had a super time in London today, upgraded my bag to 1000 and came back with it stuffed to the brim. Levelled up to 29 and briefly took over Buck Palace with our Christmas Raichu.

60 minute lures?? We'll freeze to death. Unless I can find a nice warm Pokestop pub. Sounds like a plan.

QueenLizIII · 23/12/2016 23:24

I wish gen2 would make an appearance. I only have 240 spaces on my pokedex.

Natsku · 23/12/2016 23:49

My local library is a pokestop so I might hole up there with a lure when it opens again after Christmas.

Dillite2 · 23/12/2016 23:54

Just had a lucky egg session and made 60k xp. I also added a Vileplume and a Garyados to my pokedex finally!

These are my strongest ones.

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 24/12/2016 00:01

I did a lucky egg evolve session yesterday and added a gyrados and a weezing to my dex. One of my 5k eggs was a pichu too.

Quite pleased to hear that there will be more charmanders and bulbs as I rarely see them and there have been no nests near me. The extra incubators are good news too - I have been churning through them like no-one's business.

TheOtherGalen · 24/12/2016 00:33

Do you folks evolve your high-CPs even if they have less-than-stellar stats? I've caught some high-CP critters but I just transfer them if the appraiser guy doesn't tell me "this one can really do battle" and at least one of the stats is "the best I've ever seen."

TheOtherGalen · 24/12/2016 00:35

Also, I have yet to catch or hatch any pokemon with perfect stats. You know when I finally do, it's going to be a 10 CP weeble or something.

tumpymummy · 24/12/2016 01:51

galen I put all my Pokemon thru pokegenie to find out their IV. I only evolve those with both good IVs (preferably over 70) and high CP. Although I don't bother for pidgeys and weedles, I just evolve all of those for the XP in a lucky egg session. My only 100 IV Pokemon is a hypno but he isn't especially high CP (1400odd) and doesn't have brilliant moves unfortunately.
