Pokemon Go #12: "It's in the trees! It's coming!" The Houndooms of love are calling me (to join in a raid).

[DoctorTwo]

Shiny new thread starts here.

Not even got any 2k eggs, today. DS1 picked up 3 10k eggs. I did loads of spins without picking any up then got a 5k. Since my school run changed from a barren rural walk to a 2 bus commute through a city, gym activity has gone right up an d our bags are always bursting, but the walking has suffered a lot, for the sake of battery preservation.

I didn't get any 2k eggs either. I got two 10 eggs and a 5K. I'm feeling salty. 😡

We're all sick in the wartortle household but during my brief time outside I managed to hatch 4 eggs (including a 10k which gave me porygon) and got 2 2k, a 5k and a 10k to replace them. I have had more 10k than normal recently.

It's my birthday tomorrow so hoping I'll feel better and can get out and about. Currently, unless it happens in my living room or on an emergency calpol/ice lolly run Wartortle isn't seeing her cities rare spawns

RafaIsTheKingOfClay Three can't take down an Entei. Four could do it if they were all high levels (35+) who knew what they were doing.

You really need six at least, around Level 30ish

wartortle Hope you're feeling better and have a good birthday tomorrow! 🎉

I didn't think we were going to. It's just the first time I've ever seen anybody else in a raid.

Mostly I'm limited to stuff I can take down myself. I'm getting good at collecting magikarp

RafaIsTheKingOfClay Yeah that makes sense, I just thought I'd mention it so you had an idea of numbers for (hopefully!) future ones

I've pretty much accepted that unless they do some sort of event where legendaries spawn I'm not likely to get them. Which is annoying but never mind.

High level definitely helps with raids. Only managed to properly attempt one legendary raid and I was standing long after all the sub level 30 raiders had fizzled out.

Flareo rids are nice and easy, btw - despite being level 3 - since high level watery pokeys are ten a penny. DS1 and I dualed one with loads of time to spare.

PickAChew Didn't they just come back in with a new group of Pokemon?

Or is that what you mean; that you last longer before (or if) needing to rejoin?

Actually, there was a raid about a month ago where there were three other people gathered when I walked past. But I had some GPS issues and I was there, my avatar was on the other side of the park.

Nah - they were fighting with utter shite after the first minute , if there at all (had whittled down from 8 to 3 with no one else rejoining and 2 of the 3 were e and DS1) while my original 6 were still going but past their fastest, so I could hardly pick up the slack.

Only other legendary raid I tried to join couldn't make up the basic numbers, so i didn't relinquish a pass, and I was by far the highest level, at level 35.

RafaIsTheKingOfClay That sucks Have you asked any of them if there is a group for your area to organise raids, like on Facebook or whatsapp?

PickAChew That sounds very strange

The not rejoining is odd, I wonder did they really not rejoin, did their apps crash (this was a known bug, you could normally rejoin if you reloaded but sometimes less experienced raiders didn't realise) or was it the player number bug PoGo has off and on? I've been at raids where I know for sure there are a certain amount of people but it seems to stop displaying them after they've fainted even though they're stood next to me battling still.

The lower level players do often struggle for strong, suitable pokemon after the first 6 though IME. And/or they think it's all about CP so out come blissey and snorlax.

PickaChew stuff battery preservation, get an external power pack. If you've already got one, get a bigger one and offload the old one onto the kids. I have no idea how as a family we managed without one, now we have three.

I have a theory that if you have incubators in use that you’ve bought then you get more 10k eggs. I only ever seem to get them when I have a blue incubator running and got two 10ks yesterday after buying one of the event boxes.

I have a theory that if you have incubators in use that you’ve bought then you get more 10k eggs.

I'm always buying incubators and I very rarely get 10km eggs.

There's only a 12% chance of getting a 10km egg.

Apologies to whoever' dragonite I just kicked out of a gym a minute after you defeated the gym and put it in.

If you could hurry up and take it back, I could do with the coins.

My raid group have noticed 10km drops seem more frequent since the event started. I think the conclusion it's a ploy to make us buy more fast incubators - one of the group members currently has 7 10k eggs

That makes sense. I don't mind all the 10k eggs as long as they have decent stuff in.

I'm more annoyed by the rubbish that keeps hatching from my 5k eggs.

Ive had a Larvitar and a Dratini from 10k eggs so far. Dratini was shite.

Shuckle and Hoppip from 5k eggs today. Meh.

Larvitar and Tyrogue from my 2ks today, and I now have 3(!) 10ks from the last day and a half

MummySparkle my first event 2km egg was also a Remoraid, just like yours

The next two were Oddish, and Mareep! So I was happy with that. Although the only downside with them hatching from 2km eggs, is that they bring a rubbish amount of candies with them . Oh well, I suppose any Mareep candies are handy! Every little helps.

RafaIsTheKingOfClay If you want coins, you don't want them to take it out quickly. You want them to take it out after about 8 hours so you get your full 50 coins.
