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

[CartwheelGirl]

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...

[QueenLizIII]

Just caught a 700CP Bulbasaur. I almost never see those.

[LBOCS2]

I just had a Charizard in my kitchen. Not too shabby

[Quietlygoingmad67]

My app did an automatic update about a week ago and now I can't get on the app at all!! Getting unreasonably cross - it's only a game but annoying that I can't get on. I deleted the app and reloaded it but still no joy

[QueenLizIII]

I just had a Charmander in my garden!

[TheOtherGalen]

Refilled my egg basket and managed to get two 10k eggs! If only it weren't so freaking freezing out there, gah!

I saw quite a few starters in town, though caught a couple Charmeleons and Bulbasaurs, even a Squirtle. I haven't seen any evolved starters though! If a Charizard or a Blastoise shows up here I don't care if I die of hypothermia I'm going after it!

Now plugging in the phone and turning the game on in desperate hopes that a Charizard shows up in my kitchen...

[TheOtherGalen]

Oh, dear, there's a Wartotle nearby!

Donning all the layers as we speak.

Charizard and Ivysaur here tonight, plus a lapras and a dragonite! crazy night and I've completed my gen 1 pokedex with the Ivysaur. just in time for the end of the year, so I've only wasted 6 months on Pokémon Go :)

[TheOtherGalen]

Just went crashing through the neighbor's yard in the dark with an inadequate flashlight, making a giant undignified spectacle of myself, only to find a 57 CP Wartotle at the end. 57 CP! Bleh! And did I just spend 5 regular balls, 5 great balls, and 4 ultra balls on it before finally catching it? No, of course not, I would never be that stupid.

[PickAChew]

Evolved starter Pokémon are fiendishly difficult to catch and usually subjected to the 3 ball rule!

[Igneococcus]

I just caught a 646 Cp Charmeleon down by the shore of the loch but the wind was blowing so bad I had difficulties keeping the phone steady. There is now a squirtle nearby but it is wild out there at the moment. I hope it will spawn in my dry and warm house instead.

[LBOCS2]

The charizard last night took an embarrassing number of balls to catch

[BumWad]

I can't believe you caught a wild Charizard!! I really need to get out and get playing today.

[Igneococcus]

Just went crashing through the neighbor's yard in the dark with an inadequate flashlight, I only found out two days ago that you can turn on the torch on an android phone by saying "lumos" and to turn it off with "nox". probably everybody else knew that already but this is very handy out here with barely any street lights.

[ednabuckett]

More charmander this morning and a bulbasaur. I have to pop out later so will take the long route so I can see what's in town. It's so nice that something different is popping up. My little girl uses an old phone and can only catch at home or in wifi so she's made up to now have those too.

She's desperate for a baby tho so we're going to try a trip to my brothers as he has a poke stop near his house that we can use within his wifi range.

[QueenLizIII]

Ive had a few bulbasaur. Two of them ran away.

I am actually pissed off that Ive played this game for over 5 months and a Venosaur was out of reach unless I walked hundreds of kilometers or waited until they changed the game to add more.

[DameDeDoubtance]

I know what you mean, there are some pokemon that I don't see me ever having a chance at. I'm almost level 30 and I've had 6 ten k eggs throughout the whole game so no chance of a Snorlax for me.

I think they should rotate the spawn so that everyone has a chance to catch and evolve a broad variety.

During and after the Halloween event the spawns were more interesting, I had a bit of colour around me, now it's just rats and pidgeys and weedles.

[DameDeDoubtance]

I only found out two days ago that you can turn on the torch on an android phone by saying "lumos" and to turn it off with "nox".

[Igneococcus]

Are you astonished that that works or that I only found out now DamedeDoubtance
You need to say Ok google or tap the microphone icon and then say Lumos, takes a second or two but works perfectly on my Galaxy.
Caught a squirtle, ivysaur and a charmander, there are more things on the screen but our weather is atrocious.

[LBOCS2]

If there are any South Londoners on here, there seems to be a spawn point for Kabuto at Selsdon Rec - they keep popping up at the Pokestop there.

[Natsku]

I have 9 incubators but not a single bloody egg, and have only seen charmander nearby but not in range. Rubbish.

[DameDeDoubtance]

Astonished that it works!!!! What sorcery is this!!!!!! I only found out what happens when you google Do a Barrel Roll the other day, who knew how wonderful the world is eh!

[Starlight2345]

I have caught about 6 bulbasur this morning .. I only had about 6 bulbasaur candy , so need a lot more to evolve up ..

Evolved Kabuto yesterday so now Sandshrew is my buddy.

[IhatchedaSnorlax]

I didn't know that Dame, so have just tried it

[DameDeDoubtance]

Right, need to prise myself off the sofa and go for a poke walk.

[TheOtherGalen]

I wonder if I try that Lumos/Nox thing on my iPhone if Siri will get all huffy like she does when I tell her to "Open the pod bay doors, HAL."
