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

So I put on my raincoat and went out! Rain has buggered up all our plans today, including rain on the screen so I couldn't throw properly!🙁

Hatched a Dratini from a 10km egg- with 58 candies!! Grin

Natsku · 23/07/2017 10:53

No raids round here :(

Icouldbeknitting · 23/07/2017 11:15

I did a mass evolve with my morning coffee. I'd like to say that it took me a good way into L33 but as it's now a million between levels it didn't. I'm kidding myself that if I get out and about today and throw pinaps at everything then I might get a second lucky egg in before the end of the event. We shall see. I'm planning on going into town this afternoon to find someone to play with and hopefully see some of these legendary beasts while I've catching every Pidgey and Weedle there is.

There was a legendary at a gym in the village this morning but I was running mum's taxi in the wrong direction and missed it.

RudeDog · 23/07/2017 11:37

Seen loads of legendarys in gyms - tried one myself but a waste of time

Saw a group getting ready to do a raid (too shy to join Blush)

Hope I might just catch one - nearly walked off a 10km egg so going to time a lucky egg at the same time and do a bit of an evolve session

Gutted I am working tomorrow Sad

loc · 23/07/2017 11:41

rudedog, don't be shy they will be looking for as many as possible to join!

DameDeDoubtance · 23/07/2017 12:57

Double xp, lush, I have hundreds to evolve!

StealingYourWiFi · 23/07/2017 12:57

Are the legendaries only available from raids or can they be caught in the wild too? Ive managed to evolve my Cynaquil today with an egg hatch with double XP. I hatched a Dratini and got 62 candies from it!! Shock Managed to level up to 29 too.

StealingYourWiFi · 23/07/2017 13:00

I'm walking with Lavitar at the moment. Hopefully will get enough then will switch to Mareep. My DP went to NYC on business and caught a Tauros for me. I've been having great fun putting it in the local gyms Grin

Shellder · 23/07/2017 13:05

I was in Chester, I got Articuno and Lugia before 9am as I was worried the EE network would crash later in the day. Home now and I had a great time but I had to head to the outskirts of the city Sat afternoon for the game to load.

cottonwool125 · 23/07/2017 13:08

Stealingyourwifi I'm pretty positive that, at the moment, legendaries can only be caught in raids Smile

Natsku · 23/07/2017 13:20

Only raid in town was a bloody electrabuzz. I need to stay home the rest of the afternoon as I'm roasting a duck for dinner but maybe I'll pop out in the evening and try my luck again.

Dillite2 · 23/07/2017 14:00

No legendary raids today. And now it has started pissing it down.

eyebrowsonfleek · 23/07/2017 14:03

How long are Lugia and Articuno available for - 48 hours or permanently?

Icouldbeknitting · 23/07/2017 17:41

I think I'm done for the day. It's still daylight and it's not raining but I've had enough. (Unless a L1/2 raid pops up at the closest gym in which case I might pop out again)

I thought I'd level up, get a gold gym and hit the 1000 hours defending by the end of the weekend. I did the first two but my defenders I put out today have lasted no more than an hour and the two that have been out there for days are still out there.

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 23/07/2017 17:44

Having successfully evolved Meganium, I'm now starting a long summer of walking Flaffy. 93 candies to go... my rare candies are going towards the last few for Tyranitar. It's too depressing choosing Pupitar again.

I saw a 2300 wild Snorlax, but he ran away after 2x ultra ball and razzberries. I've found recent raid hauls rather lacking and was out of golden razzberies Sad

Done well out of commons/ vermin today. Lots of new pokestops spun while DH was driving too.

FreeNiki · 23/07/2017 17:55

When does this event end

Kpo58 · 23/07/2017 17:55

I caught a Lugia (from a raid)! Grin

Totally failed with Articuno though.

Has anyone else noticed not all eggs put into incubators get the shorter hatching time?

A Dratini hatched from my 10k egg. Unfortunately it wasn't very strong, which was disappointing.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 23/07/2017 17:57

48 hours I believe. They're too special to be permenant.

Did a Lugia raid but there weren't enough of us, so will have to try again tomorrow.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 23/07/2017 17:58

When does this event end

Tomorrow, 24th. Though the 48 hour bonuses are available until 1am Tuesday.

PickAChew · 23/07/2017 19:32

I've made the most of the double candy and chucked out loads of less than "strong" Pokémon. Have 90 favourites and ready to evolve. Been catching loads of vermin, do might run to a second luck egg, tomorrow night, now I've made room to keep stuff.

I've been neglecting my po go housekeeping and it took me over an hour to sift through everything.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 23/07/2017 20:02

Now Level 29!

Just did an Articuno raid - 11 of us and only 4 caught it. Me and DH did not catch it unfortunately Sad

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 23/07/2017 20:55

I haven't got either legendary so far. Hoping for a miracle tomorrow! I did get a second dragonite today, and a scizor, and a ton of Mareep candy, and we caught a larvitar, so pretty good day.

Still have 6 to get in gen 2 but it's looking more managable now.

eyebrowsonfleek · 23/07/2017 21:43

We attempted 2 Articuno and failed both times. 😢
Hopefully can do better tomorrow.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 23/07/2017 22:00

How many of there were you? You'd need at least eight, preferably eleven or twelve. Any less and it's not worth wasting a raid pass on.
