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...

Hatched the first of three 10ks and got a stupid Scyther. Blergh! Hoping against hope for a Smoochum from one of the remaining two.

Lots of starters about. Still grinding away with "buddy" Dratini to get enough candies to evolve. Not much of a buddy when it only grudgingly doles out one lousy candy per 5k walked, if you ask me. Then I just need to catch a decent Dratini or Dragonair to evolve.

I need to find a dog who will let me tape my phone to its neck. Turns out cats don't like that so much. Just FYI.

Hatched our 10k tonight & got a Lapras - soooo happy as we haven't had one before! No sign of any babies though Angry. Now only 20,000 off level 29, so hopefully get there soon!

QueenLizIII · 01/01/2017 21:22

My avatar is running riot on the wifi from the sofa. Have bulbasaur, charmander and charmeleon on the radar but none of the feckers are spawning.

TallulahBetty · 01/01/2017 22:03

Finally, FINALLY got this bad boy tonight! Should have known when I took 12 great balls to catch. I nearly gave up! Happy new year 'monners Xmas Smile

Hatched a Cleffa today, so that's four of the babies. Also hatched a second Elekid. I managed to catch a Venusaur when were out in the car, it's a whopping 32CP (no, that isn't a typo Grin ) so I'm still saving candy to do a double evolve for a decent one. Thanks to the event, and buddying for ages, I only need two more candies, which I hope I'll get by catching a Bulbasaur tomorrow, so I've now swapped my buddy to Kabuto, as I still need 37 candies for a Kabutops and they're 5km / candy, so it could take a while. Hmm

During my walk today I caught three Magikarp, which means I only need to catch another ten and I'll finally get a Gyarados. :)

If I can get these evolutions I'll only need three more for the Gen 1 Eurodex, which I'll need to hatch or catch, so they could still take a fair while.

SomedayMyPrinceWillCome · 01/01/2017 22:18

I didn't know Dittos were still out there - I'd assumed they were a "special" as I haven't caught one in ages

TallulahBetty · 01/01/2017 22:25

I was starting to wonder the same Someday! Luckily for me, they're still about!

PidgeyfinderGeneral · 01/01/2017 22:27

I managed to bag two charmeleons and a few bulbs today while I was out but still not enough for all three evolutions for both on my dex.

I did get three 10K eggs which was good, but the previous one was my third elekid. It's not that I mind the babies, but I think putting them in 10k eggs is a bit off because it means even less chance of getting a lapras/snorlax/chansey/aerodactyl.

DameDeDoubtance · 01/01/2017 22:43

Nameless - My avatar is on wifi when she goes for a wonder, oddly seems to happen more since I changed providers but that may just be coincidence.

Caught one Bulbasaur, one. Hatched a Syther in my 10k egg which is a new one for me!

DameDeDoubtance · 01/01/2017 22:44

I'm knee deep in Dittos, catch one every other day! So odd how the spawns are spread around.

TheOtherGalen · 01/01/2017 22:44

Now all I want in life is a ditto. I didn't even know they were a thing. I hope they're not just a UK thing.

My second 10k egg gave me another Magby, which I feel guilty about being disappointed in. All hopes now pinned on 10k egg the third.

IhatchedaSnorlax · 01/01/2017 22:57

Whereabouts are you Mackem as there's no sign of any babies around here (Birmingham)?

To those without Dittos, I really wouldn't bother as they're rubbish, other than completing a space on the Pokedex.

I laughed so much. But you need DD1s cat, she's a sweetie.

Happy New Year Trainers!

It has been a good day for me. Look at what I hatched Grin

Also have 125 Bulbasaur candies and nearly 100 squirtle candies. Need to keep at it with the Charmanders in the next week or so! I am also in desperate need of eggs. Might go for a long walk tomorrow.

I'm so jealous Bum - where is everyone finding their babies?? Angry

DameDeDoubtance · 01/01/2017 23:27

What does a Togepi evolve into?

NameSux · 01/01/2017 23:32

Evening all. I love these events. It's the only time I feel like I'm not just grinding along purposeless. Finally hatched a pincer, and a ryhorn to evolve, have enough candy for venosaur & charizard so that's 4 in the pokedex. Also managed to hatch an extra 5k and 2k egg from gps drift (5k was psyduck tho). I NEED snorlax and lapras soon or I'll go nuts. The rest im missing are really rare round here so don't mind not having them as much but I get so jealous that I'm almost level 30 and still so far behind. I just want a full dex dammit

TheOtherGalen · 01/01/2017 23:32

I'm hoping to hatch another Togepi so I can evolve one of them while still keeping another.

Ihatched they're from eggs!

MuddlingMackem · 02/01/2017 00:42

IhatchedaSnorlax, I'm in Sunderland. However, DH hasn't had any of the new babies at all, despite a ton of eggs and more incubators than me as he only recently levelled up to 20 so got a few, so it's very hit and miss. Fair few on the local facebook group seem to have hatched a few though.

QueenLizIII · 02/01/2017 00:46

I hatched a fecking magikarp from a 2k egg. I already have 2 gyarados'.

hollinhurst84 · 02/01/2017 00:47

I just went out in my pjs and no bra. To drive to a pokestop where I could see a blastoise shadow Blush
Rubbish CP but I got it! My first one

IhatchedaSnorlax · 02/01/2017 01:02

Thanks Mackem - we're finding it very frustrating. The whole event has been a complete let down!

MuddlingMackem · 02/01/2017 01:04

I don't know if I'm getting the babies in eggs because I'm a higher level than DH, or if it's just totally random.
