It looked like a new thread was needed, so here it is, all shiny and pristine.

What todo you have been very lucky then. It's a bummer when it happens because you can't quite believe it's happened. I've stood there bemused counting the mons in the gym. And of course you can't see the f**ckers. I quite like the idea of all mixed gyms- would be more interesting with different ones in. Not just everyone whacking in a blissey or gyrados.

Oh I really hope they don't have plans to make all Pokemon in a gym different.

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 13/05/2017 13:27

I just find it a bit boring to stand outside for half an hour fighting the same pokemon. The red team are really active around here. If I take down a gym it's a really high level for them within the hour.

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 13/05/2017 13:29

I hope I haven't accidentally swiped! Occasionally I'll find a gym with an empty space and I sometimes leave empty spaces for people if I have the time to level up.

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 13/05/2017 15:23

I got knocked out of the gyms a few days ago, and they bumped up to L10 so I can't get back in Angry One of mine had a 2800+ CP too, so quite strong. I'm suspecting duplicate accounts for another team to create space. There's not enough action from other teams to make it interesting and make space, and now I'm stuck on just the infinite incubator.

Still can't find my po go plus either. I had it clipped on the pocket of my dress late on Wednesday and no idea what's happened to it since. Definitely not on the dress which is still hanging around.

659k stardust? Pah!

Didn't get a Tangela from last weekend's event, but did see enough Sunkerns to be able to evolve a Sunflora, so not a dead loss. Also a couple of days ago hatched a Pineco from a 10k egg which gave me enough candy to evolve one, and the previous egg gave me a Magby, so at last I have all of the Gen 2 babies. :)

TrashPanda · 13/05/2017 22:54

Do you do gyms Doctor? I don't really stay anywhere long enough to spend time on them. I seem to always be rushing between work, school, clubs and home. I'm not trying to collect stardust, I'm just one of those people who worry about wasting things, so they never get used. I was the same with gel pens at school Blush

I'm mid level 27 at the moment and need 11 more to complete both Gen1 and 2. Hatched a Mareep today so up to 81 candy for that. Put another 10K on, hope it's Larvitar.

TrashPanda · 13/05/2017 22:56

My 5K just hatched into a bloody Porygon Angry

MuddlingMackem · 14/05/2017 00:07

Porygon candy is good, TrashPanda, another evolution in a future generation I'm told, so stash the candy. :)

I'm currently incubating a 10k and got another one in the bag. Hoping for Mareep candy, or a Larvitar myself.

PickAChew · 14/05/2017 00:19

We had a gym purge locally, last ight. A load of yellow gyms had built up to level 10, during the week, but this morning, they were still level 10, but with only a few pokemon in.We plonked some of our finest in one, and it filled up again, behind us.

Then went up to another town, this afternoon, and it was full of grey, empty gyms. We had fun gettign into some, but didn't stay in them long enough to profit from any of them, as we'd already claimed for the two we got into, in the morning (e took down a small fym and I put a ditto into it because nothing ever stays in that one very long!

All the obvious level 40 spoofers in Gateshead are still in situ, mind. I took some screenshots, the other week, so might flag them up.

DS1 has been grumbling about not having had an upgrade, yet. I got my 5th, this afternoon! I might end up throwing some out because I can't do anything with them.

TrashPanda · 14/05/2017 08:00

I know Porygon candy is good but I'm up to 191 now, during the Valentines event they were everywhere here, was catching about 5 a day. I want to hatch Togepi, Slugma, Scyther, Mareep, Dratini and Larvitar. Can we still hatch Gen2 starters, or was that just for Easter?

DameDeDoubtance · 14/05/2017 09:17

Shiny thread!

I am walking my dratini, 10 candy until I can get my dragonite, the last one I need for original gen 1.

Chugging through level 32, 250 000 to go!

bigchris · 14/05/2017 09:19

I still haven't got a Muk so might walk Grimer next

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 14/05/2017 10:16

It's good fun walking Grimer. It follows you around rubbing your bottom

DoctorTwo · 14/05/2017 10:27

No TrashPanda, I don't do gyms. Which is probably why I have so much stardust.

I'm 7.5km into a 10k egg and am hoping it's something good.

Currently walking Machop, now at 96 candy, so only 12km from Machamp.

blueskyinmarch · 14/05/2017 10:32

I am finding it all really boring now. I don’t do gyms either so just catching/hatching/evolving/buddying here. I have 221 in my Pokedex which is pretty good but there has been nothing new and interesting around her for ages. It is super dull. I think i may give up now.

loc · 14/05/2017 10:52

I tend to agree bluesky. I'm up to 224, can walk 4 more but will take ages, and i never see the shadows of the others. 😒

DameDeDoubtance · 14/05/2017 13:51

I agree, i am using it as a walking app. I catch a mon each day and spin a stop to keep my streak up. I was motivated to level up but there isn't really much point, you don't get many benefits and i am at a respectable level. I loved catching shadows but they just don't appear anymore, last time was months ago. As for hatching eggs, what's the point, there full of rubbish.

Bah, we need an event or something different to catch.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 14/05/2017 17:32

Oh, here you all are!

Up to 206 caught in the pokedex. No shadows for ages. I'd love a Porygon!

Bimblesalong · 14/05/2017 17:57

Saw a shadow this morning of a dragonfly type shape. As it was 5.30am there was no way I was rushing out to catch it - no sign of anything like it all day though.
Hatched an onix, which was good, as I'm currently walking one and the hatch came with 17 candy, which means I have to walk so much less!

tumpymummy · 15/05/2017 00:16

Bibbles the dragonfly thingy would have been a Yanma. Doesn't do much, a bit like a Skarmory or a Dunsparce. It doesn't evolve into anything, so you didn't miss much apart from one for the Dex (always nice!)

HandbagCrab · 15/05/2017 06:25

i gave a skiploom a pinap berry and got ten candies from it yesterday - don't know what that was about? Evolved a jumpfluff from it which is cute. It is much more fun when events are on imho.

DoctorTwo · 15/05/2017 06:49

My 10k egg was a Dratini. A sodding Dratini. Harumph.

I chucked a Lucky Egg and scored 39kXP and added Forretess and Sunflora to my 'Dex.

A question wrt Farfetch'd (which I saw in a gym). Why the fuck is it holding a leek?

bigchris · 15/05/2017 06:50

I'm jealous handbag, I had a skip loom run away from me yesterday ! I've only ever seen a far fetched in a gym
