Pokemon Go #6: Where pokemon babies are abandoned in gyms at freezing temperatures

Well, saw this little one left overnight in a gym. Sad, really... Where are his parents? What were they thinking? Do they work night shifts too?

So many questions...

Gah! Another effing elekid in my 10k egg!

CantstandmLMs · 04/01/2017 21:05

Pidgey I've had 3 smoochums and no Elekids! Wish we could swap. It's annoying isn't it?!

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 04/01/2017 22:09

I've had no smoochums at all! I wish they would set up trading.

Today I've hatched Drowsee, paras, Caterpie, Spearow, Psyduck, Zubat

Utter shite

piknmixer · 04/01/2017 23:05

I incubated 4-5 eggs a day during the event and didn't hatch a single new Pokemon let alone a baby one.

Have been overrun with Charmanders at work though - so I evolved my Charmeleon into a Charizard today. Need 12 Bulbasaurs for a Venusaur now.

I lost all of the spawns around my house about six weeks ago, there were at least four points that spawned pretty constantly. If I'm lucky I can catch one pokemon every few hours from a single spot.

I have just caught a pidgey though that was really a Ditto. Meh.

Going to Helsinki today but doubt I'll get much pokemoning done as its - 25 with the wind chill :(

FrogTime · 05/01/2017 06:33

That's damn cold natsku!
Back to work today and fingers crossed a few bulbasaur and charmander to top up my candies. I need about another 50 of each to do both evolutions through.

Changed my buddy from bulbasaur to ponyta - figured id get him going as I'm able to catch bulbasaurs now. Only ever seen 2 ponyta so he's got a lot of walking to do!

Natsku · 05/01/2017 06:49

It is bloody cold. Thankfully only had to wait outside for a minute to catch my bus.

Natsku · 05/01/2017 07:08

Spoke too soon, had to wait outside for ten minutes while changing buses and now I can't feel my legs. No pokemon around either, must be too cold for them too!

jennielou75 · 05/01/2017 07:44

Just fought to catch a wild charizard (sp) ? Used loads of balls and raspberries and it still escaped!

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 05/01/2017 09:15

I finally got enough candy to evolve a charizard and a venusaur this morning. Yay! One of my 10k eggs was another omanyte which was actually OK as it meant I could evolve an omastar and another pinsir (sigh).

However, my ball collection is at an all-time low. I may have to stop catching for a few hours to try and top it up again.

spiderlight · 05/01/2017 10:39

I caught a wild venusaur yesterday but I have to keep it a secret from DS because I had his phone with me as well and the bugger broke out of over 30 pokeballs after I'd used up all his raspberries, Ultraballs and Great balls and then fled from him and he would be gutted. I had to trail around a load of stops to replenish his balls and I'm desperately hoping he doesn't look at his journal for a while. He's only 9 so he would be properly upset. I'll have to sit on mine and give it to him in trading, if they ever bring it in.

Igneococcus · 05/01/2017 12:07

I have finally hatched a baby, a pichu, I'm so chuffed.
I'm back at work and did a quick circuit of the close by pokestops and got three 5k eggs which is about as many as I got during the last 5 days altogether.

Natsku · 05/01/2017 12:42

Looks like me playing pokemon really is going to be in a documentary, rather embarrassing

FeralBeryl · 05/01/2017 12:49

Nat be pokeyproud!! You deserve an outlet. Flowers xx

Natsku · 05/01/2017 13:07

Yeah but its me catching a Rattata!

JellyWitch · 05/01/2017 13:38

Definitely be proud - it's a great game.

I had a lovely walk this morning: hatched a smoochum and another pichu which my son will be pleased about. Got back into 4 gyms so claimed 10. Unfortunately I've just lost a gym this lunchtime and can't work out which one it was! One of my 4 executors.

eitak22 · 05/01/2017 14:12

Another rubbish day where i hatched an ekans from an egg my 3rd in a month) but caught some more starters and stocked up on pokeballs. Really missing the extra incubators!

FeralBeryl · 05/01/2017 14:56

Nat ShockShockShock get your coat! You can't sit with us anymore....
Or can you say it was a bad camera angle? It was really a Snorlax

TheOtherGalen · 05/01/2017 15:18

Hatched a Hitmonlee from my 10k egg -- my first Hitmonlee! I was hoping for a Smoochum but as booby prizes go, a Hitmonlee isn't too shabby.

Refilled all nine egg slots last night and got zero 10ks, sigh.

spiderlight You poor thing, I'm just imagining you dashing wildly from Pokestop to Pokestop, guiltily trying to refill your son's inventory...I'm not chuckling at all, really I'm not!

Dillite2 · 05/01/2017 15:19

nat how did you manage to get yourself into a documentary?

Dillite2 · 05/01/2017 15:20

My second 10k egg hatched a second Magby. Now I have 2 wigglytuffs and 2 magbys. And no more 10k eggs.

53rdAndBird · 05/01/2017 15:21

I got a Cleffa and an Elekid! Fiiiiiinally.

Wish incubators were cheaper. I never have more than one gym on the go at once - the only time I get out to play really is work lunchtimes, and the gyms near my office change over every hour or so still.

Natsku · 05/01/2017 16:23

The documentary has nothing to do with pokemon but they just decided to film me playing and I watched the nearly final cut today and it shows me catching a fucking rat (was filmed when pokemon first came out so in my defence a Rattata was still fairly exciting)

Caught a wild porygon today, never seen them in the wild before.
