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

Yeah I'm nowhere near a charizard evolve

Still need another 50 candies......

ProseccoandPizza · 20/06/2017 13:45

Evolved a Charizard, Typhlosion and Houndoom. Anyone else who can log in noticed that multiple Pokemon are spawning when they log in? Until yesterday when gyms were taken down I'd only ever seen one Pokemon at a time spawn on my street. Now there's at least two at a time, sometimes four.

Soubriquet · 20/06/2017 13:50

No I regularly get multiple spawns.

Most I ever counted was 10 at one spot. It had a bench right there too so I could sit and catch every single one

FreeNiki · 20/06/2017 13:58

I get multiple spawns too. Depends where though.

I know have two breathtaking Charmanders one a defence specialist and one an attack I need 250 candies to do that and I have about 200. I hope I see loads more before event end.

FreeNiki · 20/06/2017 13:59

Oh and my 10k egg was a Mantine. I want to smack its face in as they're common. I got 5000xp for rhe hatch though.

LBOCS2 · 20/06/2017 14:04

I quite often see multiple spawns but there do seem to have been more of them this event - at one point I had four growlithe in my house, whereas I usually have access to maximum two at a time.

I've found this event to be very good - I put a lucky egg on last night and did my double evolution of a cyndaquil, evolved my houndour, did four arcanine, three ninetails, two charmeleon (as I already have a good charizard), three rapidash, plus all the other assorted rubbish that I was keeping hold of in order to level up. Got to 29 easily on it.

tumpymummy · 20/06/2017 14:06

Ooh you're lucky with your multiple spawns, I only get 1 at home. I thought it had gone but thankfully I think just spawn time has been shortened. I was going to walk in to town to hatch my 10k eggs, but it's too hot so I've come to the nearby pool instead. Have to work later so guess I'm done with the event now. Got loads of cyndaquil. Bit ironic when 2 weeks ago he was my buddy and I walked him miles!

tumpymummy · 20/06/2017 14:08

Lucky you LB I didn't manage to find a lapras. Only have the one little one from near when game started. Lucky baby was due a sleep!

PickAChew · 20/06/2017 15:47

Yes, the bus station was rather crowded, this morning!

The extra spawns were definitely temporary. The one across the road from us has gone again.

Le sigh.

DameDeDoubtance · 20/06/2017 16:18

Off for a walk to mop up the last off the event. I've noticed a few pokestops have changed to gyms, can't wait till they're up and running!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 20/06/2017 16:24

Peekaboo!

I don't know if this has already been discussed on this thread, I've only been on a month or so. But does anyone know if/when we will be able to breed Pokemon in future updates? Obviously as we have male and female Pokemon and have done for a while, is that niantic preparing us for us being able to breed? I've been saving my best one or two male and females of each unusual/rare Pokemon for a while, and each time I evolve I try to make sure I have both genders. Am I wasting time, or is this something that will happen going forward? Smile

Kpo58 · 20/06/2017 17:18

I'm not sure what the benefit of breeding Pokemon in Pokemon Go would be.

I still can't log in. I want to cry. I just get Unable to Authenticate every time I try. It doesn't get as far as deciding if my password is correct or not.

Natsku · 20/06/2017 19:24

This event has been pretty good for me, been doing a few lucky eggs and incense while in the car (not driving obviously!) so catching a pokemon every minute and getting shit loads of points so finally got up to level 30 and now I'm not fussed about xp any more

No new gyms here :(

Natsku · 20/06/2017 19:25

Haven't had any difficulty logging in

Not been getting any eggs from pokestops though which is very annoying!

PenguinOfDoom · 20/06/2017 19:26

So after my lapras disappointment the other day, I got on with walking the two 10k eggs I had, fully expecting them to be more fucking gligar/pinecos. They were....

A miltank and.... A LAPRAS!

I think Mumsnet must have secretly fixed it for me. Thanks Mumsnet!

In other news, DH and I drove to work today because we couldn't face the tube, so I had two very decent catching/pokestop hitting sessions. I now have a full sack of pokemon and will be doing a lucky egg evolve.

PokemonGo · 20/06/2017 20:33

Ooh you're lucky with your multiple spawns, I only get 1 at home

....not that I'm bitter but some of us dream of being able to catch a Pokémon from the comfort of our homes 😂

BTW I am actually a little bitter 😭

cottonwool125 · 20/06/2017 20:36

PokemonGo I second your non bitterness Sad

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 20/06/2017 20:44

Woo hoo congratulations on your Lapras Penguin

PenguinOfDoom · 20/06/2017 21:08

Thanks! I am well chuffed.

LBOCS2 · 20/06/2017 21:13

How is everyone doing with Gen1?

My Lapras was the last of the 'standalone' Pokemon for me to catch; regionals excepted. I've got four more candies to get to evolve Grimer into Muk, and two more to do Machoke into Machamp (I may catch one, they do periodically turn up around here). Then I've got 99km to walk to get my Exeggcute to evolve. Which I'm putting off until there's another event, I think. And then I'm done, woo!

I'm miles away from Gen 2. I don't think I've even completed one row.

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 20/06/2017 21:16

Ooh, just read about 'premier balls' which will be used in raids to catch the boss Pokémon.

I am impatient for the gyms to return! Raids won't be for a while, but the gyms should be back soon.

I am also impatient for gen 3. It may be that I am just lacking in patience generally Grin

220 in the dex, thank you Charizard.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 20/06/2017 21:23

Yes I get multiple spawns everywhere; always have done. And I only live in a small town.

I've got enough to get a Charizard, Typhlosion, Houndoor, Ninetails.

I think the only thing I didn't catch during this event which I desperately needed was a Magmar!

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 20/06/2017 21:24

LBOCS2 - I have 4 to get from gen 1

Venusaur (7 catches away)
Primeape (3 catches)
Machamp (3 catches)
Chansey

And 9 to get from gen 2

Meganium (2 catches)
Feraligatr (too many to count)
Ampharos (too many)
Politoed (need king's rock)
Unown (fuck off, Unown)
Scizor (4 catches)
Porygon 2 (6 catches)
Blissey (don't even have Chansey)
