Ah that's frustrating! Good luck getting that last one!

I'm walking my Mankey at the moment and that is utterly boring. I'm at 32 and desperate to change it but resisting. Filling up my pokedex one at a time!

And then I went to the library with DD and there was an Aerodactyl waiting outside.

I'm walking Chansey: have been doing this forever, still have ages to go.

HandbagCrab · 06/04/2017 12:27

I'm walking scyther, 4 candies until I can evolve him with a metal coat. Then I'm going to do charmander or dratini. Not decided which yet, either will take forever!

PickAChew · 06/04/2017 13:16

DS1 is finally at level 30. I finally hatched a Chansey, this morning, though it only came with 18 candy.

And we're both hoping that the nests are better, this time around. Nothing exciting, so far, but it's early days.

I sit corrected - our nearest big park is a chikorita nest :)

We had a super day is Weymouth today, I have over 500 pokeballs now!

Didn't catch any newbies but did get 12 magicarp, none shiny though. Also caught a couple of Sunkerns and a Slugma.

Igneococcus · 06/04/2017 16:40

I just added a Flaaffy to the pokedex.
There is an infestation of geodudes at my work pokstops right now.

DameDeDoubtance · 06/04/2017 16:56

I love geodudes, all the evelutions are cool and pretty handy in a scrap too.

PickAChew · 06/04/2017 16:58

Also totodiles and cynquadil at parks opposite each other in Boro - with a big museum in between, which will be handy for loos, if we take DS2.

I added a Slugma to the dex today and also evolved my first Jolteon. I'm a bit of a weirdo and don't do naming tricks so pleased to finally get that one.

I've walked 100k with Bulbasaur so far. Still need 60 ish candy. Getting a bit bored of hanging out with Bulbs now Smile

RueDeWakening · 06/04/2017 19:44

I'm walking Bulbasaur atm too, it's so dull, but I need want to complete my gen 1 dex, and frankly it's never going to happen without some serious mileage.

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 06/04/2017 19:55

Same here Rue I really want to gen 1 completed. I missed the starter event as my phone was broken so also have Charmander on my long walk list.

PickAChew · 06/04/2017 19:58

I've noticed there's been a change with the CP of wild Pokémon. In the past, they've mostly appeared pretty random with only the odd one exactly the same for me and ds1, but now, they're all the same, every single time. I first noticed the change when I took his phone into town on Monday.

DameDeDoubtance · 06/04/2017 20:24

that's interesting PickAChew. I wonder if there are any benefits to levelling up? I always assumed that you attracted better pokemon but maybe not.

PickAChew · 06/04/2017 21:10

I think the maximum possible CP gets better as you level up.

What I haven't had chance to check is whether Pokémon spawning at lures are the same for both of us, now.

DoctorTwo · 06/04/2017 22:32

Due to having a bastard hard day at work I only kept the streaks going. Good job as it was day 7 for Pokestop.

I know what you mean about walking Bulbasaur. I walked 108km with mine. I've now walked 80 km with Charmander, and thanks to hatching one yesterday with 8 candy (stingy fucker), I now only have another 24km to get to Charizard.

TranquilityofSolitude · 07/04/2017 07:58

If you're both Level 30 or above the CP will be the same, I believe.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 07/04/2017 14:33

I just spent the most wonderful 45 mins making Pokémon Go spreadsheets.

Blissed out, now.

PickAChew · 07/04/2017 14:35

That could explain it, Tranquility, though he didn't level up to level 30 until Tuesday.

DameDeDoubtance · 07/04/2017 16:17

Spreadsheets, how utterly dreamy! I make lists of evolutions so that I can evolve efficiently and make maximum use of lucky egg time.

Soubriquet · 07/04/2017 17:05

I'm really cross. Was going to go Pokémon hunting today at the local shopping outlet. Don't get there very often so was hoping for new Pokemon. But for some reason my account had logged me out and refused to log back in. Finally done it now we are home again

HandbagCrab · 07/04/2017 17:21

Evolved a slowking today and went to a park that turned out to be full of Onixes. Also caught my first digglet, so a pretty good day today!

FreeNiki · 07/04/2017 17:36

I levelled up and got the most stingy piece of shit rewards for getting 1 million xp.

Now only need 1.25 million xp for level 35.

DameDeDoubtance · 07/04/2017 19:44

I think that's a big flaw in the game, there should be more rewards for levelling up.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 07/04/2017 19:47

Yes, I think after level 25 or 30 there should be more incentive - perhaps incubators every second level instead of every 5.
