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...

my 5k egg was an ekan and something else uninteresting..

I have a couple of 2k eggs but not really enjoying Christmas event. I need bulbasuar so was hoping to spot some around over Christmas but nothing except more pickachu's

Thanks guys! Wine

He's not a pokemon hunter, but he puts up with it! Have managed to convince him to spin pokestops in the car if we're in traffic and I'm driving, and he can identify a few so I can stop if there's decent ones to catch! He keeps hoping I'll stop playing.

That's the first time I've called him a fiancé! Blush

Shame about the crap eggs. I'm still on a high!

Actually, just spotted the porygon in that list Envy

How can I be level 30 and still have no Lapras, Snorlax, Porygon or Chansey?

I have no babies either but all my eggs are in incubators so fingers crossed. Should be a nest change tonight so hoping for some new stuff about tomorrow.

Congratulations LongtimeLurker!

I got a second pichu today- I'm visiting my brother and my 2 nieces insisted I rename my 2 pichus after them Grin

Congratulations longtime!

No babies here and I hatched a Diglet today. I don't have DugTrio but I'm 25 candies away so pretty unnecessary. I have 2 10ks well on the way though so my poorly lungs and I will turf out in the freezing fog again tomorrow. Still hopeful!

Caught a Primeape. Hatched 3 x 5k eggs. Got another Bulbasaur, Caterpie and Zubat. Sadly, 3 Santachu ran away. Where are all the babies?

Still no babies here either, but I actually like the xmas event as I never pay for extra incubators and now I can cook more than one egg at a time. Not really playing much as have been surrounded by family over the last week, all of whom think I'm mad for being a grown woman playing this game. Although when a snorlax popped up on nearby I did have to run out of MILs house and track it down.

Grump. Grumpgrumpgrump.

Not been well enough to go out since Christmas Day, so no fun playing with Christmas Event things for me.

Did evolve my Alakazam + Golem + Venasaur on a Christmas Day Lucky Egg evolve session. Need to do my Festive!Raichu before the event ends - wanted to wait to see if I could catch a better prospect &/or just power the evolvee up as far as possible. Missing it would be tragic though...

Opiate rotation is HARD. Especially when it's long overdue. And you're on an oxycodone dose that always gets checked by people because "at your size that should have you comatose". Can't give me a full dose of [IV] paracetamol, then hand over enough opiate for a small elephant: it makes sense, obviously, but also...

Really hoping I manage to get out tomorrow, even if only to the park at the top of my road (home to several Pokéstops & a gym, am spoilt, I know)...

Congratulations to everyone who has gained Exciting Things; Comiserations to people being Disappointed & Frustrated by the current state of Poképlay...

Morning. Marking place.
Have hatched 6 eggs and every single one of them was crap. Had nidoran, goldeen, eeve, krabby and something else I can't remember.
Still haven't had any of the cute babies. Now cooking a 10k one, and will have to do 2x2k to make space for more.
I'll do a lucky egg on Sunday and that should take me to 31, after that I'm not sure if I'll carry on playing everyday. I am bored now.

Are the starter spawns better from tomorrow?

I haven't hatched any baby pokemon yet although Christmas has got in the way of my Pokemon Go time. I did catch a few at my in laws (my SIL and niece were Very excited to catch a pikachu) to add to my collection.

I have a question for the experiences gym battlers. Gyms are a bit new for us.
There is a gym close to home, it's the only one we have stable mobile connection to do anything. It's been a team Mystic (ds' team) gym for months, level 8 or 9, then someone started to take it down, levels dropped over a few days and yesterday morning it was red with one pokemon in it. During the day we went and took it back, ds put his gyarados in and a few hours later it turned yellow, we go back (10 min walk) take it back and the moment it turns blue another battle starts and it's now red, except there is absolutely nobody else around besides us. The gym is on a bridge, (close to one end), it's single lane with traffic lights at each end, you can not park there, we are the only pedestrians, I dashed down the little path only known to locals to see if there is anybody on the road below the bridge but there is no sign of anyone. I think the closest house is too far away to have access but I'm not sure about that. Is it worth emailing Niantic about that to check this out? Would they be able to see if someone hacked it?

Marking place!

We did our twice yearly trip to see relatives yesterday, going from south London to Hertford up through the middle of London - my Pokemon finger needs a rest now Grin

Annoyingly, I took a gym down along the way - it only had a Chansey level 150ish in, but the traffic cleared before I could add my Pokemon to it. Guess it's my Christmas present to whoever came across it!

Yep, the partner Pokémon spawns are from the "afternoon" of the 30th, so that'll be evening for us.

And no sign of a migration, yet, so might brave the ice and take ds1 out on a bulb hunt.

I am on a local Pokemon Facebook group and the nests have migrated so my nearest one has gone from rhyhorn to goldeen 😭😭. Will have to see what my wee local pokestop has now as it was duduo up until yesterday. Can't see what it has from the house so have to drive by or walk closer to it

Just passed North park in Darlington on the bus and it's full of bulbasaur!

Unfortunately ds1's phone charger has been playing up (he forgot to charge up his new charger after yesterday) so we couldn't take advantage.

Got myself 3 more 2km eggs so will blast them through my infinity incubator asap.
Very odd as I hardly ever get them! Fingers crossed for the babies!
