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

I almost forgot! Today is my avatar's birthday!

Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday dear Dashy!
Happy birthday to yooooouuu!!

She's done a great job of running about and catching Pokémon. Only 10 left to complete both generations, excluding regionals and legendaries. I might buy her a new accessory.

I have so far failed to get into Pokemon Go today. There goes my pokestop streak. Annoyingly I have some eggs with only 0.2 km before hatching.Sad

Natsku · 13/07/2017 19:05

Tried and failed a three head raid with my little cousin today. Hopefully tomorrow there will be an easier one that we can manage. Put his pokemon in the gym this evening and I'll take it back tomorrow morning. Somewhere there's a sneaky red teamer who might interfere with our plans but we'll see.

TrashPanda · 13/07/2017 19:22

Just seen on my local Facebook group that one of the nests is now Scyther. Will save on the walking! Took a gym earlier just before a raid started, was kicked out quickly after it finished but got 13 coins.

DoctorTwo · 13/07/2017 20:39

This event was supposed to include enhanced drops of 10km eggs. Every egg I've got since the start of it all I've had are 5km eggs. Today I hatched a fucking Poliwag. Harumph. Mind you, it did the final 800m whilst I was stationary in the warehouse. :o

I'm still walking Chansey, I had 12 candy when we buddied up, now she and I are up to 37.

Glad to see the thread title was sort of prophetic Soubs! :o

Just booked my coach ticket for Chester, managed to convince DH to come with me with the promise of a nice lunch somewhere.

HandbagKrabby · 13/07/2017 21:05

I've got two 10k so fully expecting a pair of Jimmy Chinchous out of those.

New local sandshrew nest means I've nearly got a sandslash :)

Soubriquet · 13/07/2017 21:50

I got my its 10 egg today. Better NOT be a chinchou. Already got my lacturn or whatever it's called

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 13/07/2017 22:06

PsammeadPaintedTheLion Safari zones? Is that the Chester event, or something else?

eyebrowsonfleek · 13/07/2017 22:34

I got an aerodactyl in my only10k event egg.

Hoping that the anniversary picks up when the events go live.

The European Safari events include being able to catch region exclusives from outside Europe- lucky!!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 13/07/2017 22:40

Ahh those safari events! Yeah no can't get to those Sad Can't even afford to go to Chester.

PickAChew · 13/07/2017 22:43

I'm getting married on the 22nd so no gaming for me

Don't be daft!

But congratulations, anyhow. If he doesn't let you join in, LTB.

PickAChew · 13/07/2017 22:48

Have you checked the Silph Road nest atlas, Whattodo?

You'll be surprised where you find nests. It's not just parks because there are also frequent spawn points. I might be a mile from my nearest pokestop, but we can monitor a frequent spawn point from our house and there is one mirroring it at the other end of the (1km long) street, which is great when it's something like Onix. There is also a pkestop another half mile away from our nearest which is a pretty busy nest site, so if there is something good there (can see it from DS1's school, as it's nearer as the crow flies than on foot) we sometimes go for a long Sunday walk.

PickAChew · 13/07/2017 22:50

No special treat, psamm? It's mine in 2 days.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 13/07/2017 22:51

PickAChew Yeah, I check all the time. No luck Sad And I'm not even rural!

Thanks though Smile

PsammeadPaintedTheLion · 14/07/2017 08:47

Nope, nothing special for my pokebirthday. I'd have been thrilled with a piece of rare candy or something! But nope. Nothing. Unless the eggs
I picked up yesterday are all bursting with Chansey and Snorlax, but I doubt it Grin

Oberhausen, one of the safari zones, is about a 4 hour drive away from me. I So Badly want to go. DH is already pretty sceptical about Pokémon though, plus we'll have only just come back from holiday, plus if I go, dd1 will definitely want to go, and if she goes, dd2 will want to go, and if she goes, dh will have to come because she's 4 and only likes to catch Ponytas so long as she doesn't have to walk for more than 30 seconds. Boohoo.

I'm getting a bit bored of all the normal grinding right now. I know there is a bulbasaur nest about 40 mins drive away, but dh has now got the lurgy that's ruined our last 2 weekends.

HandbagKrabby · 14/07/2017 14:04

Got my first snorlax!!!! Only taken a year and a day :) It ran from dh when I was trying to catch it for him and he's not quite over it yet!

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 14/07/2017 14:54

Hatched a 10k egg... fucking Chinchou. Not even a top quality Chinchou.

Croconaw evaded capture post-raid too. What a waste of some golden razzberies.

I'm not feeling the love today Wink

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:09

HandbagKrabby Congrats on your Snorlax!

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:18

I put my tiny little bellossom in the gym across the lake but the naughty red person kicked it out after only 15 candies. I put a golduck in the gym at the old village school, there's a good chance it might never come out so was careful to put a 'mon I don't use and can easily replace.

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:21

And almost ran into a real life stantler i.e. a reindeer with massive antlers that came out of the trees as I was going past! Snapped a picture of the beast running away from me.

There's no-one quite like Yanma, I'm sure you will agree
WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:22

Natsku Aww I love Bellossom! But we get so few grass Pokemon round here that I don't have one Sad

Oh you don't get candies for coming out of gyms btw, you get coins Grin Candies would be very impression, though...

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:22

*Impressive

Natsku · 14/07/2017 15:34

Candies, coins... I blame baby brain! I was calling them points earlier when talking with little cousin.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 14/07/2017 15:46

Ha ha no worries Smile

That's an impressive real life Stantler!
