Caught 7 charmanders today! Hoping to go somewhere with pinsirs tomorrow

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 11/04/2017 18:38

I ordered a pokemon go plus last night Blush Prices are quite sensible at the moment. It'll make it easier when I'm on a run and mainly want to use the distance for egg hatching, especially as I have a half marathon to train for!

Nothing special to report. Quiet because of school holidays and missing the school run. Went to a decent park today which was handy for easy pokestops from the playground.

I'm really wanting to do a mass evolution on a lucky egg but just holding off to see if the Easter event helps.

bigchris · 11/04/2017 18:39

My last 2 10k were a Mantine and Sudowoodo Angry

loc · 11/04/2017 19:12

You probably figured this out already, but try not to play when drunk, I accidentally put down incense, thought it was a lucky egg, evolved everything I could, realised my mistake then fell asleep. D'oh.
Caught a 2300 donphan in my hungover state from my bed this morning at about 6:30am, so not all bad!

(Was celebrating special occasion, don't usually get drunk on a Monday, honest!)

PickAChew · 11/04/2017 19:25

My aim is shit when I'm drunk.

All the level 10 gyms in Sunderland appear to have been taken down for the first time in ages.

I caught some sort of Giraffe thingy. It was hanging around at the British Medical Association. I hope it wasn't poorly as it's now squashed into a poke ball.

BumWad · 11/04/2017 21:17

My local park is a Girrafarig nest. They don't even evolve 😬

Anybody else sick to death of hatching Pinecos from 10k eggs? I'm drowning in them

chopchopchop · 11/04/2017 22:49

Are there more evo items about? I got two today, and not on my seven day streak. Not complaining though!

MuddlingMackem · 11/04/2017 22:53

BumWad, I was at a park today and the locale appears to be a Giraffarig nest. We were having dinner when I saw a shadow on my nearbys and legged it to the pokestop to get it. Then out walking in the area later there seemed to be quite a few, but I only managed to get one more as we were skirting the pokestops.

PickAChew · 11/04/2017 23:08

BumWad your shiny flappyfish does indeed look to have a lot of potential. Get saving the candy and stardust!

At least you'll have access to the loos, Ronnie! We didn't get to the loo until we got to Darlo on the bus (fab disabled loos for DS2 at the Dolphin Centre!) because I was blown if we were going back into the Hill Street centre, once we got back to the bus station on the 17!

We caught Girafarig quite early on because it was at our local mini-nest. That's back to Bulbasaur, at the moment, which is handy because my venusaur needs a bit of powering up. It was sneazel last time, which is only about as useful as girafarig!

We did a drive by (on a bus) scout out of another potential cynquadil nest (Whitburn Golf Club) this morning, but it turned out to be a dud as I lost mobile signal and the reports of the spawns being far apart were probably correct, since I saw no pokestops there, from Lizard Lane. It's probably better to just walk across from Cleadon park - may try that on Thursday, when DH can take DS2 off our hands.

Did a lucky egg session, tonight. Now have a medal for 70 Johto region pokemon. And "only" 300KXP left to get through level 32!

Don't hold your breath too hard for an easter event, btw. Examination of the latest updates hasn't found anything special (which doesn't mean that temporary server side changes can't be made). My money's on skipping it and having a Mayday/Cinquo di Mayo celebratory event.

chopchop I had 4 evo items last week, I wondered if they were more common. None this week so far though, so might have just been a fluke.

PickAChew · 11/04/2017 23:14

Well, this explains the gyms. Quelle surprise!

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 12/04/2017 08:34

Ah that's good PickAChew. I got into a gym yesterday at the station which is a very rare event indeed (Spoofers plus I'm a bit crap) so that might be why

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 12/04/2017 13:37

Donphan and Sandslash added to our dex!

LBOCS2 · 12/04/2017 13:57

Where did you order it from Some? I've been eyeing one up for a while.

I caught my first Mistreavous and Mareep yesterday, which I was pleased about. Still haven't managed to play consistently enough to get a 7 day upgrade item...

DeepfriedPizza · 12/04/2017 14:54

Hello everyone. I have been lurking. I am level 29, almost 30 and just need an aerodactyl for gen1 dex.

You should definitely get a pogo plus LBOCS2 as I felt it was a real trudge to get from 28 to 29 but felt 29-30 has been really quick using pogo plus ( I didn't have it before then)

I have 2 10k eggs on the go. Fingers crossed for something other than pineco,gligar and soodoowoodo orwhatever it's name is.

IamRonnieBiggs · 12/04/2017 15:49

So we went to Albert Park - got a few Todiles, nothing in Ayresome Park - disappeared by time we got there.....

But will bloody got a Snorlax!!!! Nearly a year waiting!!

PickAChew · 12/04/2017 16:18

I don't have a snorlax, yet, either!

Only gen 1 I'm missing.

Gen 2, i need both totodile and cynquadil evolutions, final chikorita and larvitar evolutions, blissey, both sheep, unown, cleffa and togepi.

I hatched a Smoochum from a 5km egg, rather than the expected Psyduck or Natu. Now up to 185 on the Pokedex. I'm currently cooking a 2km egg, then it's all 5k.

It feels like it's taken forever but I finally have 100 Charmander candy. I'm holding out for a double XP event before I do a Lucky Egg evolve sesh, so if there's no event I won't bother.

PokemonGo · 12/04/2017 17:37

I'm still waiting for news of an Easter event.... they are leaving it a bit late. Sad

I'm going to be sad if there isn't one.

PokemonGo · 12/04/2017 17:38

Mind you, the recent banwave makes me very happy 👍🏻👍🏻

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 12/04/2017 19:17

They are saying on my Facebook group that an event will be tomorrow for 7 days with increased hatch rate of rare pokemon.
Just a rumour though. A rumour that makes me dream of actually seeing an Aerodactyl

FreeNiki · 12/04/2017 20:25

No double xp or stardust. Jesus

DameDeDoubtance · 12/04/2017 20:59

I refuse to do a lucky egg, just in case.

Went to Dover Castle today, stuffed full of poke stops! Nothing exciting to catch but a decent variety.

Gah, we need a DECENT event.

BumWad · 12/04/2017 21:27

I have heard about double XP and rarer egg hatched starting tomorrow too?!
