Yeah, I know I'm scraping the barrel now... :o But at least you get an earworm.

Still just keeping up the streaks, but yesterday I HATCHED A SNORLAX. That's No2, and I have 40 Snorlax candy.

I get it re grinding up Pikachus, it just feels wrong. I do it though, 'cos I'm heartless. Wink

Phew 😁

Exciting news about the legendaries!

Hatched a pinsir today which is a a first so very happy about that.

This is weird, I got a couple of my Pokemon appraised and although it had the correct words, a different gym leader picture appeared.

cottonwool125 · 20/07/2017 20:29

Kpo58 I had this today too! Are you Instinct (yellow)?

Kpo58 · 20/07/2017 20:45

Yes, I keep getting the Red gym leader showing. I'm not converting!

cottonwool125 · 20/07/2017 20:47

Kpo58 I thought it was the red gym leader! I had to quickly check that there wasn't a glitch in the game and I had been converted to red! Oh well, quite nice to have a new face around for a change Grin

Natsku · 20/07/2017 21:23

Bugger my two pokemon I put in gyms today came back at the same time, not long after my mountain one came back

JoantheVampireSlayer · 20/07/2017 21:49

Just evolved my first Tyranitar but I'm not sure if this move set is any good? Any ideas?

JoantheVampireSlayer Unfoetunately it's not great, sorry Sad

Neither of the moves are the same type as him, which is what you'd want (a perfect Tyrannitar would be double dark).

What is its appraisal?

JoantheVampireSlayer · 20/07/2017 22:26

I thought as much Sad
She is a wonder Whatto which is why I bothered to evolve her, so it is a bit disappointing ha!
Just trying to decide if I should use a charged TM on her...

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 20/07/2017 23:03

JoantheVampireSlayer Being a wonder is good! But the only type both steel and fire are good against is ice, and there aren't currently a lot of ice Pokemon.

tumpymummy, I'm with you, I don't really like playing in an obvious way, it is a bit embarrassing being engrossed in a screen in public (and unsafe, I like to keep my wits about me, damn these distracting Pokemon!). I'm not sure how my DH would take it if I said I wanted to go on a PoGo meet this Saturday night. It is an odd one, he's not mental or anything but he doesn't get it. At all.

Dillite2 · 21/07/2017 06:39

So has the pikachu event ended then?

On Saturday, is the special event an all day thing or only during set hours? Because if it's in the evening or early nightime we won't be able to participate which would be a bit shit.

Soubriquet · 21/07/2017 07:04

I hope the pikachu event has ended. Never thought I would say this but I'm actually sick of seeing him!

I mean how many do I bloody need?!

PickAChew · 21/07/2017 07:17

They look like they're waiting for their mates to turn up in a souped up Vauxhall Nova, @soubriquet

Probably passing around a rollie that smells funny.

No; Pikachu in Ash's hat will stop appearing after the 24th July.

On Saturday, is the special event an all day thing or only during set hours? Because if it's in the evening or early nightime we won't be able to participate which would be a bit shit.

I believe it's set times between 5.00pm and 9.30pm, but I would need to double check that.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 21/07/2017 11:33

This seems to suggest the legendary Pokemon will only appear between the 23rd July and the 24th July, so you'll need to keep your eyes peeled!

Starting July 23, everyone around the globe will be able to compete in the same sort of mystery challenge that Pokémon Go Fest attendees got to check out. The legendary Pokémon that first descended upon Chicago will then spread to gyms everywhere. Pokémon Go’s blog suggests that this will only last through July 24, so it’s best to check in with Pokémon Go as much as possible throughout the weekend.

Also, Dillite2, the challenge windows will be at 5pm, 7pm and 9pm and will last for half an hour each time.

Dillite2 · 21/07/2017 12:04

Thank you what! 5pm is doable as we will be out at that time still so will just have to hope that there is something happening at our arse of nowhere.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 21/07/2017 12:23

No worries Smile I'm glad at least one of the time slots is doable for you!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 21/07/2017 12:24

Dillite2 Oh but as far as I'm aware, there's nothing specific happening; we just have to aid those in Chicago on their mission by catching as many Pokemon as possible during those time slots.

The more Pokemon the world catches as a whole during those times, the better the rewards will be for everyone Smile

Natsku · 21/07/2017 16:54

So that's 7pm, 9pm, and 11pm for me, not good as I'm desperate for bed by 8 usually! I guess using incense and lures would be a good idea during those times.

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 21/07/2017 21:42

I'm a bit confused about remote berry feeding. I thought the while point of feeding being introduced was so you'd have to go back to the gym. But now we don't? Perhaps I think about this game too much Grin

Hatched another Mareep - egg from the same pokestop as the last 2. I've now gone from having never seen one to 60 something candy. Pretty happy with that

Remote berry feeding is nowhere near as effective as if you're at the gym feeding them, so there's still an incentive to get to the actual gym.
