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...

We've had a Lickitung in the house, DH's first. He and the kids are still without a Porygon so hope one of those shows up too. Grin

PickAChew · 08/02/2017 20:42

Sounds like I may get both porygon and chansey, with the wind in the right direction, then.

Had loads of lickitung already. Never fail to make us grin when they lick you as they appear!

Sooooo excited lickitung on my nearby! Yippee! Will be sick of them by the end of the event...

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 08/02/2017 21:14

I think the event has started here...

The 3 local gyms are still dominated by the dodgy usernames. I'm not up for a single handed mission to reclaim them from 3000+ CP Snorlaxs and Dragonites (my best ones are just scraping 2500- Snorlax and Vaporeon)

The event started at 7pm UK time today.

Managed to bag a couple of porygons on the way home.

Starlight2345 · 08/02/2017 21:28

Porygon is on my list too..Need to get out walking.

Babygroup tomorrow is at a pokestop ..So will be stocking up on balls.

loc · 08/02/2017 21:38

Ok so DD managed to bag a porygon and a lickitung on the scout run tonight and DIDN'T GET ME ONE!! Excited for this event!

EekBarbaraItsaDalek · 09/02/2017 00:21

I haven't seen any pink Pokemon yet, but I did get a random candy from my dratini. Are there any London peeps here? Are you aware of this londonpogomap.com/#close ?

EekBarbaraItsaDalek · 09/02/2017 00:24

DS got me into the game when it first came out. We caught tangelas really early on from what we later found was a nest. I wonder what other Pokemon aren't in nests any more?

FeralBeryl · 09/02/2017 01:44

Been out in my dressing gown in the car to track a LICKITUNG! DS is going to be thrilled in the morning Smile
I also have Chansey as my buddy and the 5k usually required has dropped to 2.5k not sure if this is just because it's a pink Pokémon but may be worth checking if you're struggling on any others?

Cooroo · 09/02/2017 07:02

What with winter gloom and a vile cold my playing had gone right down, but I'm back in now. Nipped out last night as I spotted 2 local gyms had spaces and bagged a few pink things. What is the point of Lickitung? Are they worth building up or are they just for comic effect?

loc · 09/02/2017 07:15

Not sure there's much point in them,cooroo, I just want to complete my Dex, and there are only 3 I haven't actually seen, lickitung being one of them.

wheezles · 09/02/2017 07:42

I'm in love with this event as already caught a Smoochum and a Cleffa!

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 09/02/2017 07:52

I hatched a smoochum last night!

There's a pokestop right outside my work which I can reach from my desk so I might stick a lure on it.

wheezles · 09/02/2017 07:55

jealous!

spiderlight · 09/02/2017 10:12

There was a Chansey at our nearest pokestop last night but I didn't fancy getting out of bed and walking up the hill again to get it! Am knee deep in jigglypuffs and clefairies at home.

Starlight2345 · 09/02/2017 12:05

I have caught 3 lukitung this am but not on my needed list. A chancey was on my nearby list at a pokestop while at baby group this am..Group had another hour to go so couldn't leave.

spiderlight · 09/02/2017 12:19

Oh blimey - I have an absolute plague of Lickitungs in the house all of a sudden!

Soubriquet · 09/02/2017 12:24

I've got a jigglypuff plague

Igneococcus · 09/02/2017 12:25

I'm walking a Porygon and that has also dropped to half the distance required for candy, so not only pink ones.

A chansey was kind enough to spawn next door, just before I went to bed, last night. I only got a tiny one, but at least it's in my pokedex, now.

Just need to hope for a porygon. And maybe a few more dratini and omanyte. And a few bulbasaurs to make up my shortfall. A snorlax would be nice, while I'm hoping. And a few babies, since I still only have a magby...

DS1 hatched an igglybuff, this morning. He's only short of one baby!

Starlight2345 · 09/02/2017 14:20

Has anyone noticed more Omanyte ... I have caught 2 today and need the candy..Here is hoping.

MerylPeril · 09/02/2017 14:32

Has anyone played just in wifi?
I want to play when in holiday in Disney (lots of wifi) - don't switch my data on when abroad usually

PickAChew · 09/02/2017 14:36

Sadly, no.

Maybe you have a spawn near you, Starlight. One thing I've noticed is that certain spots, even nowhere near pokestops, become a regular spawn for something, which changes with each migration. I noticed this when 2 of the several in our street became bulbasaur spawns at the same time - I managed to track one down to a particular spot. That same spot was spawning Magmar ever 2-3 hours over the past couple of weeks. There were psyducks there, before that and regular cubone before that.

Starlight2345 · 09/02/2017 14:52

It is near a pokestop..I have picked up some good stuff there ..Got my first ditto, Kabuto and some other bits and bobs. DS has Tae Kwon do there this weekend I usually leave him to it..Might just stay this week just to support him obviously Wink
